The Washington statesmen are
becoming flustered over the financial
situation, and are going to have a
consultation next Friday to see what
they can do about it. The trouble
with Cleveland's administration was
to prevent the surplus from growing
bieeer. The trouble with Harrison's
administration is to prevent the de
ficit from growing bigger.
The reported shooting of butcher
Hippolyte, of Hayti, has been con
tradicted. Assassination is not
looked upon as an orthodox method
of administering justice. Retribu
tive justice does sometimes, how
ever, get a grip in that impromptu
way. Hippolyte has indulged in a
somewhat lavish and indiscriminate
use of bullets himself. If it had
been so the one that cut short the
career of such a blood-thirsty saavge
might have been used to worse pur
pose. Government estimates put the
wheat crop of this year at 538,360,
000 bushels, compared with 512,765,
ijOn bushels in 1884, the largest crop
harvested heretofore. This will
leave a considerable surplus after
the home market is supplied. If it
wasn't for the miserable tariff which
interferes with the free exchange of
the surplus in foreign countries, our
wheat growers might find ready sale
for their surplus and have some
money left to buy "protected arti
cles" and pay their debts.
Secretary Rusk's and ex-Senator
Farwell's dynamite method of bring
ing down rain has proved an im
mense success. It was pretty dry
out in Dakota and some of the
wet men concluding about ten days
ago to have a little dampness, ex
ploded about 100 pounds of dyna
mite, and it has been raining ever
since. The question now is how to
stop it. They say as a rain fetcher
it is a success, but the invention will
not be complete until it is provided
with a patent plug, to stop her when
they have enough and before every
thing gets too wet.
An enterprising Albany, N. Y.,
artist advertises that he can furnish
nice coats ot arms, for American
famhes, emblazoned in gold and
colors, for the small price of 50
cents. This is low, but we wouldn't
advise American families who hank
er for coats of arms to invest a whole
half dollar just now. It they will
wait awhile the scandals among the
royal and titled nabobs in Britain will
bring coats of arms down to about
forty cents a gross, when the Ameri
cans who are ambitious to ape the
aristocracy on the other side can
have an assortment to pick from and
get 'em cheap.
We admire the clever dexterity
with which the talented Republican
organ grinders manipulate the Amer
ican language. They can't under
stand why the Democrats who a
couple years ago were troubled over
the growing surplus in the treasury
should now be growling because the
surplus which gave them so much
concern "has been distributed and is
now in the hands of the people." If
Cleveland had just thoughtot get
ting some accomplished and hustling
burglars to bore into the treasury
and "distribute the surplus," what'
an immense amount ot worry he
alight have saved these poor, unso
phisticated Democrats.

Signor Corte, the Italian consul
who was called home to tell Mr.
Rudini what he knew about the
New Orleans Mafia racket, is devel
oping, if he had not previously done
so, into a robust liar. When he as
serts as he does that those Italians
who were lynched did not belong to
the Mafia, and that they were killed
not for being members of the Mafia
bu t because they were Italians,
and for competing with native labor
ers, he makes a statement which bears
upon its face the brandjof falsehood.
Of all the 'Italians in New Orleans
not a single one was touched but
those men who were known to be
long to the Mafia and every one of
whom had been indicted for murder.

N. C, SATURDAY JUNE 20, 1891.
- AT THE SOUND.
An Excursion From TJp the W. C. & A.
R. H. No Balloon Ascension on Ac
count of Heavy Wind Bat Plenty o
Amusement.
A heavily loaded excursion train ar
rived yesterday morning on the W., C.
& A. R. R., and went directly to the
Sound over the Seacoast road. Only a
few of the passengers stopped in the
city, and one or two of them cuold well
have been spared without causing much
regret to the pedestrians on Market
street, where these two made themselves
extremely officious and obnoxious, with
out carrying their half drunken pranks
far enough to get themselves into the
"cooler." They went to Ocean View by
one of the early afternoon trains and
after making a rank show of themselves
on shore they took to the surf and to
show their cuteness commenced to
ANNOY SOME LADY BATHERS
with their remarks and attentions; fol
lowing them about until run off "by some
gentlemen who came to the rescue and
threatened them with a thumping if
they did not clear out. They then
went on shore and got into
their clothes, but one of them, who (in
his own estimation) was just too cute to
live, hung around the dressing-rooms
until the ladies came from the water
and then followed one of them unob
served and took up his position at a
crack in the door, where, while she was
using the shower-bath, the lady discov
ered the "Peeping Tom" and gave the
alarm. He was hustled out and the
lady's husband becoming acquainted
with the state of affairs, drew his pistol
and would have given the scoundrel a
deserved dose of lead in short order
had not a number of bystanders inter
fered to save bloodshed. The scamp
was then started away on the double
quick, in company with several of his
fellows, and advised to take the quick
est route towards home if he valued
an untanned and whole hide.
During the afternoon a large crowd
from the city went down, allhe regular
and a number of
extra trains
were run to accommodate the travel,
and they -were all well filled. There is
always a large travel on Friday after
noon on account of the half holiday
given by the business houses, and the
number was of course increased by
those who hoped to see
THE BALLOON GO UP.
When, after a fruitless trial to fill it,
Prof. Gilbert announced it impossible,
the crowd took it very good naturedly
as it was patent to every one that
the Professor was doing his best
and that the unusually heavy wind
was something beyond his control, al
though the balloon had been moved to
a new location as much sheltered as
possible, and a brick furnace con
structed to give a greater heating capa
city. They will make an effort again
to-day. There is
PLENTY OF AMUSEMENT
at and -around the Hammocks, and
every one seemed to enjoy themselves
regardless of the balloon.
THE SAILING
was good, though a" trifle rough for
the timid ones, and a number
of parties were out. There being
a full moon last night the
tide was very high and the strong wind
raised tiny wavelets and dashes of spray
in the channel, while the surf outside
was delightfully high. There are a
greater number of
SPANISH MACKEREL
in the sound than has been known for
years, and the anglers are correspond
ingly happy. There were several fine
strings of them caught yesterday, be
sides a quantity of fine pig-fish and
sheepshead, and the usual quantity of
perch and skipjacks.
THE SECOND REGIMENT' BAND
gave their usual Friday concern, and, as
usual, it was the finest; while the regular
orchestras rendered delightful pro
grammes of dance music at the different
pavilions. An unusually large number
of persons
REMAINED FOR THE LATE TRAIN
to enjoy the deservedly popular supper
served at the Island Beach Hotel, and
the moonlight dance afterward. The
prospects are favorable for a large num
ber of visitors there to-morrow.
First Cotton Blooms. .
The mail from Maxton, Robeson
county, brought the Star yesterday two
cotton blooms, sent by Messrs. Carter &
Weatherby, who say the blooms were
plucked from a twenty-five acre field of
Mr. A. J. Cottingham, two miles from
Maxton; one bloom on the 18th and the
other on the 19th inst. Messrs. Carter
& Weatherby say that crops both cot
ton and corn are doing well in that
vicinity.
