Tbe:KoakgelIers' Board of Trade,
The second session of the Book
sellers' and Stationers' Board of
Trade was Jield this morning at 11
o'clock.
, The Board perfected arrange
ments towards the establishment
of a thorough exchange among the
the members of such books, school
or miscellaneous, as may be
unsaleable in one section arid in de
mand in another. This book ex
change will be one of the most use
ful features of the Board "of Trade
and will save the dealers from con
siderable losses consequent upon
the frecfuent changing of school text
books. -
Under the head of a general dis"
cussion it was learned that none of
the members of the Board of Trade,
since its organization a year ago,
have been selling any of the disrep
utable class oT newspapers which
were formerly so iargely circulated
in this State. It is the intention of
the Board of Trade-to drive such
literature out of North Carolina if
possible and to use every effort tp
bujld up. the very purest literary at
mosphere around our people.
The present official organization
was unanimously re-elected for the
ensuing year with ti e following
changes: . Rev. N. Robey, Corres
ponding Secretary, Goldsboro; Mr.
P. W. Mellick, of Elizabeth City
was added to the executive commit
tee. ; - -
During the session many business
methods and views were exchanged
between tlie members of the Board
to tlie mutual advautage of all, and
the pleasant social meeting was
very much enjoyed. f
The Board of Trade adjourned to

Mr. and Mrs. Jrio. F. Garrell re
turned to the city last night from a
visit. of several weeks to Western
North Carolina and Tennessee. Dur
ing his absence Mr. Garrell paid
visits to the large cattle farms in
that line section and made arrange
ments for supplies of fine mountain
beef cattle, muttSfl' and" lamb
throughout the entire Winter. The
first car load arrived tb-day,another
is expected to-morrow and hereafter
a car load will be received regularly
every week. The first installment
will be on his stalls, Nos. 1 and 3

Wilmlngtontans in Jacksonville.
We have a postal from Mr. Gh. W.
Tlfames, for many years a messen
ger on the Southern Express line be
tween this city and Columbia and
afterwards Clerk of the Market
here, but who is now in quarantine
at Jacksonville. Mr. Thames tellsj
us tbat his three little boys have
had the fever, but have, recovered,
and that thus far he and his wife
have both escaped. He expresses
himself as having no fears on his
ownaccount, as he has gone safely
through several epidemics. The fe
ver, he says, is in a mild form. He
and his family are all quarantined
and confined strictly to their own
premises. All that goes into the
house or out of it, even the food
they eat, is passed in or out over
the fence. Their quarantine is for
15 days. Mr. Thames conveys the
gratifying intelligence that all of
the rest of the Wilmingtoniaus in
Jacksonville are well, so, far, and he
thinks that there is ihbre fear than
fever. The postaUs dated last Sat
urday, the 25th,. and took four days
to get here.
Made Himself at Home.
Early yesterday morning Mr. D.
J. Steljes, who owns a summer resi
dence on Masonboro Sound, re
ceived information that some one
had taken possession of his place.
He immediately got his horse and
buggy in readiness and started to
the Sound to find out who it was
and what he was doing. On arriv
ing at Masonboro Mr. Steljes stop
ped at the house of a neighbor "and
got two or three men to accompany
him to his house. Arriving at his
place he found the house open and
a dinner cooking on the stove in the
kitchen, while the best bed showed
signs of having been very recently
occupied. The intruder was 4not
at home" but Mr. S. did not have
long to wait for his return, he hav
ing gone to the landing to get a
fresh supply of crabs for his dinner.
Arming himself .with a stout piece
of rope, Mr. Steljes went to meet
him, which he did about half-way
between the liouse and the landing.
The fellow did not know that he
was the owner of the place and was
about to pass hiiii when he began to
throw the rope on him in a pretty
lively way. After giving him a
good thrashing Mr. Steljes let him
go and the last that was seen of him
was as he passed the ge.cqnU toll
house making Maud S."time toward
the city. .
The fellow was a white tramp and
said he was from Jacksonville. He
has been at Mr. Steljes' place for
three days, having , gained : an en
trance by breaking a light from one
of the windows and passing his hand
to the inside and removing tne
fastenings Once in the houfee, he
was all right, for the key had been
left in the back door, and with this
key he opened the kitchen,' where
he found a good supply of provisions
to which he helped himself. He
went in the garden and gathered
vegetables and would catch fish an
cook them. He is ,now ruitUig"
on the truthfulness, of "fhequotation:
WTwas ever thus".
If there is auy truth in the story
that he is from Jacksonville; which
we yerymuch doubt,and if he is really
in the city, there will be a good
chance for some enterprising, GJj&ee.

'u. A Runaway.
Dr. A. M. Baldwin's horse, attach
ed to his carriage, took a notion to
run away this forenoon. He started
from the corner of, Tenth and Dock
streets, and ran; down Dock to
Tenth and then to Market where' he
collided with a fence and brokethe
shafts and broke off the top of the
carriage. The horse ran some little
distance further when he was stop
ped by a colored man. No one was
hurt.' ..' ... . . V i:
Our Pressman Married. -
Moses Jones, for nine years past
the pressman ha this office, and one
of the. most worthy colored young
men in the city, was happily mar
ried last night to Evelina, daughter
of Joseph J. Jones, one of the most
prominent colored men in the city,
at the residence of the latter, on
Eighth, between Castle and Queen
streets. The ceremony was per
formed by Rev. J. B. Small, pastor
of St. Luke's A, M. E. Church, and
the house was crowded with the
f rie'nds and relatives of the happy
pair. The bride was dressed in white
satin and the wedding present s were
numerous and some of them costly.

Improvements at the C..C Depot. '
The double daily passenger ser
vice on the Carolina Central R. R.
has necessitated an increase in the
accommodations at the depot here.
First, when the day train was put
on, the old high platforln was taken
down and a lower one built to cover
all of the room under the shed. This
was found much more convenientas
one train comes in just three min
utes before the other one pulls out.
But it s found that more facilities
are yet needed and hence the pas
senger shed is to be lengthened tQ
400 feet and made 35 feet wider. No
better evidence of the determination
of the authorities to maibtain as a
permanent thing the double daily
seryice can be found .
