The Wilmington Light Infantry
made a splendid appearance on the
streets yesterday in Fayetteville
and they were greeted with hearty
cheers. We have never seen them
march better or display more pre
cision in handling their pieces than
thev did then.
Some of the Wilmingtonians in
Fayetteville had a sleepless time.

bones.
In the list of marshals at Fayette
ville our city was represented by
two grizzled Confederate veterans,
Col. Roger Moore, chief of staff and
Col. W. L. DeRosset.
The policemen sent from this city
to Fayetteville were the best look

They seemed to be as much at home

Pockets Picked in-Fayetteville.
Pickpockets broke loose in the
crowd yesterday and some of the
Wilmingtonians were sufferers. One
gentleman lost $8 and his railroad
ticket, another lost $G5 and still
another $150. One of our German
friends lost an elegant new over
coat, for which he had recently paid
$22. In picking the pockets the
thieves in several instances cut
through the coat and got the pocket
book in this way. At last accounts
no arrests had been made.
A Freak of Lightning.
Last Thursday, at Scott's Hill,
during the preYaence o,f a thunder
storm, a two-story house standing
near the track of the W., O. & E. C.
R. R., on the plantation of Mr. R.
K Bryan, was struck by lightning,
q bolt passing down the chimney
on the outside of the house until
near the ground when entered
the dwelling through two windows,
tearing their shutters from the
hinges, splitting their faoings, cir -cling
round the fire-place, ripping
open the sides of -a cupboard in one
corner of the room and .making its
exit through the floor without in
jury to a little negro boy ajd child
who sat iq front Gf the Ore. The
ep,sh so frightened the boy that he
left the house and ran through the
beating rain some distance to a
cabin where he found shelter. The
woman who lives in the house says
that she don't believe it will be pos.
sible hereafter to keep the boy in
the house during the prevalence of
a thunder storm.

i . Tlie Centennial. i
Fayetteville has had a, big time of j
it in the-celebration of theCenten-j
nial of the adoption by the State of j
the Federal Constitution. - It was a
big thing and no mistake. Yester
day was to have been the big day
and we were present then. The day-
was a failure,- however, to a large
extent, because of tlie rain. It be
gan before day and continued stead.
ily until nearly noon. The exercises
were of course postponed - but at 2
o'clock they, were resumed. Sena
tor. Ransoiu came in on Wednesday
night; accompanied by his brother,
Gen. Robert Ransom, who was at
one time a resident of this city, and
some others, and Senator Vance ar
rived yesterday. Gov. Fowle was
on the ground on Wednesday and
was of course handsomely received.
At 11 o'clock -Col. Roger Moore,
Chief of Staff, announced that Sena
tor Ransom would speak at a grand
stand erected in front of the Market
House at 2 o'clock. There was no
procession, other than that of the
marshals and military. Chief Mar
shal Carr was in charge of the
proceedings, which he opened on
the grand stand in a graceful and
beautiful speech. Mayor Ray, of
Fdyetterville, followed next and
warmly welcomed all to the hospi
talities of the city, x Mayor Ray also
introduced Gov. Fowle, who made
an eloquent address and presented
a stand of colors to each of the four
regiments. The Governor then pre,
sented that distinguished Senator
Cien. Matt W. Ransom, and for
two hours and a half that gentle
man held the vast audience spell
bound with his matchless eloquence.
It has been called, and justly, the
greatest effort of his life and that is
as faithful an encomium on it as can
be passed. - '
Letters were read from ex,-Presi-dent
Jefferson Davis, expressing his
great regret at not having be
able to be present, and also fro
President Graver Cleveland
President Harrison,
Senator Vanoe was,"present on the
stand and was heartily cheered. He
was to have spoken to-day.
At 12 o'clock the committee met
and decided, notwithstanding the
unpromising aspect of the weather,
to hnve the fireworks J last night.
They were let off at the Fair Grounds
and it was the grandest pyrotechnic
display ever seen in North Carolina
At noon yesterday Marshal H. A
Latham, of Pitt county, in behal
of all the marshals of the Centens
nial, made a handsome testimonial
to Chief Marshal. Carp m a graceful
speech, which the latter accepted as
gracefully.
The Centennial Ball took, place
on Wednesday night in the immense
tabernacle and it was thronged with
people. Gov. Fowle vas present
with his brass. bound staff. The
dancing "did not begin until 11
o'clock. Previous to thisthe Marine
Band, which graced the occasion
through Senator Ransom's personal
efforts, gave a grand 'concert.
This we cannot describe, or
even attempt to describe. We
can only "say that it Was the
grandest thing we ever heard. We
hardly knew what music was until
we heard that band.
The ciowd on the streets has been
variously estimated all of the way
from 15,000 to 30,000 people. At the
outside we do not think that there
were more 20,000. But that is a
big mass of people. The mud and
slush were simply awful.
The Amerieans are to the front
again; this time they report 115
suicides; just 36 more than Germany;
but they still continue to use Dr.
Bull's Cough SyruD. the best of all
rreiuedles for coughs and colds.
