We ex tract it from the Herald: Arkansas City, Kan., April 23. One of the most, interesting inci dents of the opening of Oklahoma occurred iipon the return to Arkan sas City this afternoon of the train carrying newspaper correspondents. Seven of the Chicago and other Western correspondents had pooled their issues and eugaged a cowboy to meet them on horseback just af ter the "train entered the yards at Arkansas City and to gallop furious ly to the telegraph offices. Mr. James Cox, of the St. Louis Globe Democrat was shut out of the com bination. The plan worked beautifully until the cowboy had galloped half a block on his way to the telegraph office. Then Mr. Cox saw the schenfe, and leaping from the mov ing train he started n foot after the horseman. It was a run of more than a mile to the telegraph office. By a spurt Mr. Cox overtook the horse and then a desperate race be gan. The cowboy lashed his horse vigorously, but he could not shake off the fleet footed correspondent. On the last eighth of a mile Mr. Cox spurted like a sprinter, and by a terrific effort reached the tele graph office forty rods ahead. When he entered the office he could hard ly stand or see. His exploit was the talk of the town to night. The cow boy has not since been seen.

They had a delightful time at the ball given last night in Howard Relief Hall by the Germania Band. It was the second of the series, and although not so largely attended as it might have been yet it was very successful and very pleasant. The harpers furnished the music and the dance was prolonged until an early hour this morning. At 12 o'clock a delightful repast was served, after which the dance was resumed. Ring tHe Bells. On the morning of April 30, 1889' at 9 o'clock, it has been arranged that the church bells all over the country shall ring to celebrate the event of one hundred years ago, when the church bells throughout thirteen states rang out to call the people together to pray for the tsuc cess and f)rosperity of the country under Gen. Washington, that day inaugurated President of the United States. A call is made from the committee having charge of these arrangements that in every church im the land service be held to implore a continuance of the favor which has been shown the nation since its birth, and we hope that every church in Wilmington will peal its bells and throw open its doors for service at 9 o'clocK on next Tuesday "What's In a Name"?

ELSBACH, Prop'r. Board of Aldermen. The Board of Aldermen met in called session at the City Hall last night to consider a reduction df es. ti mates for appropriations for the current year. All the members of the Board were present, and Mayor Fowler presided. The Mayor stated the object of the meeting, and on motion the rules were suspended and tbe Board went into Committee of the Whole to consider the matter. The Mayor stated that it would be necessary to takejip appropriations made for'each department in their regular order f or revision'ahd reduc- Ltion. A communieotion from the Board of Audit and Finance was read by the clerk as follows: To the Board of Aldermen of the City of Wilmington, JS. c: Gentlemen: The estimates made bv your Board to meet the neces sary expenditures for the several departments of the city government for the current-fiscal year have been received and submitted to the Board of Audit and Finance for their con currence, and after a careful esti mate of the same, the following res ol nt ion was adopted: "Resolved, That the Chairman of this Board be requested to return to the Board of Aldermen their esti mates of expenditures for the next year, with a detailed statement of the fixed expenditures of the city and an estimate of our expected in come, including an increased levy of twenty five cents on real and per sonal property to meet interest on railroad bonds, with the request that they revise their estimates or devise- ways and means to meet them." Under the above resolution I herewith submit an estimate of the expected income of the city for the city for the current fiscal year, which is based upon the last year's report of the city treasurer. From all sources $128,200.06 To which add an increase of 25 cents on real estate and personal, es timated to produce 13,500.00 Estimated income of the city for fiscal year '$131,700.06 The fixed expenditures of the City are : Interest on bonded debt. $34,320.00 Do. on railroad bouds (estimated) Interest on loans Sinking fund Bonds due in July Old bonds not yet present- ed for payment 7,500.00 2,500.00 2,000.00 5,500.00 5,000.00 Floating debt 14,600.00 Total amount of fixed expenses $71,420.00; leaving for current ex penses only $70,280.06, while the grand total for current expenses foots up $102,246.40. You can readily see the necessity for our action iii asking for a re vision of the estimates before us. Very Respectfully, Richard J. Jones, Chairman. After prolonged discussion over almost every item of the appropria tions the session continuing from 8 o'clock vntil 11 reductions in ap propriations were agreed upon as follows; Light department, $378; markets, $550; water works, $1,000 ' permanent improvement of streets, $6,475. Making a total reduction of $8,403. The appropriation for streets and wharves was increased by adding $l0r required for feeding two horses omitted in the original estimate. . A motion, submitted by Alderman Pearsall was adopted, that the Board of Audit and Finance be informed that all the reductions deemed pos sible bad been made, and that if other reductions are necessary that a joint meeting of the two boards be held to consider the matter. The Board then went into an elec- .. m I J l x i.1 TTtV. I Ward to supply tne vacancy causea by the resignation of Alderman Lossin, and Mr. J. A. Montgomery was elected. Married Last Klgtit. Mr. E.
