There is scarcely an occasion when it is necessary for the engines to put on a full head of steam that one or more sections of the hose does not burst, in which event the usefulness of the company is destroyed sometimes at the most critical mo ment. At one of the recent tires the hose of one of the companies was not long enough to reach from the nearest tank to the burning house, and conse quently the company could do literally nothing. It strikes us that the board ol ald rmen could not make a wiser ex pendi ture than to grant the companies an appropriation for this purpose at the earliest practicable moment. - Tle Pethfel Murder Trial. To-morrow morning the case of the State vs. Geoige Pethel, indicted for the murder of his wife by poisoning will be called in the Superior Court! Ihe prisoner was brought here vester day by a deputy sheriff of How. n county and confined in jail, and yester day the clerk also received the papers from the Superior Court of Iredell, to which county the case was first remov ed from Rowan. The trial will attract a good deal of attention. Thirty-four witnesses have already been summoned, among whom is Prof. Redd, of the de partment of chemistry in the State I niversity, who made an analysis of the woman's stomach a short time af ter her death. The accused will be de fended by Messrs. Bailey, Mauney, Armfield and Gray, and the prosecu ting attorney will be assisted by Capt. Charles Price. The improssionis that there will be no continuance. TheAkh-Box Again. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Paul Mc Kane, whose shoe shop is in one of the basement rooms of the Central Hotel, on the Trade street side, found the room full of smoke. He reported the fact to Mr. Eccles, the proprietor of the house, and search was instituted. The smoke continued to boil up, and the in terest of a number of people was enlist- eu m me matter. Alter looking through Mr. Walter Brem's store and the rooms of the hotel adjacent to the spot from winch the smoke seemed to rise, it was finally discovered that it proceded from the inevitable ash-box and that the box, too, was in Mr. McKane's own shop. The fire had burned through.it and had struck the floor, and was making very lanasome headway when found. There is one thing that there is no use undertaking to teach the people, and that is if they put coals of fire in a wooden box and cover them up with ashes so as to keep them alive, they will surely burn through. Railroad Notes. All talk about the lately broken pool has subsided. The old rates are still in operation. The Charlotte, Columbia x Augusta Railroad has hecnin to receive new T iron with which to improve the condi- . i it - tion or me roaa Deu. There is a nrpttv aftivp business on the through lines both as to passengers going to and returning from Florida, anu the cnanoue routes are geumg a fair share or the patronage. At the recent meeting of the South eastern general passenger agents' asso ciation in Atlanta, Ihe chief subject of discussion was the amount of baggage was a well known fact that there has been a great deal of difference among the rauroaas m cnarges ior extra uag gage.

Prof. Cain's Book. The Observes is indebted to the author, Capt. Wm. Cain, of the Carolina Military Institute, for a- copy of his re cent book, "Practical Theory of Vous soir Arches, Applied to Stone Bridges, Tunnels, Drains and Ground Arches," being No. 42 in Van Nostrand's Science - The Observer has before al luded to the prominence which the book has taken among civil engineers, and now takes occasion to copy the follow ing notice of the work from the March number of "Van Nostrand's Engineer ing Magazine," recognized authority in the matters of which this book treats: "Scarcely any branch of practical en gineering offers so many difficulties to the young engineer as the construction of the Voussoir arch. The theoretical examples of the books fail to meet in his mind the practical requirements. So lie often follows precedent and works from copy or by rule of thumb, and completes the work in ignorance wheth er such failures as these may lie on the side of clumsiness or insecurity, with a lingering fear that, taken as a whole, the structure possesses both of these qualities. Prof. Cain has previously given us so complete a discussion of the principles inyolved in the practical con struction of arches (Science Series No. 12) that experienced engineers have em ployed it as a guide in important works. Taken with the present work, a treatise is afforded whose completeness, in a practical point of view, is scarcely equalled by anything else in the Eng lish language." August Wilhelnij. The great violinist who appears in our opera house to-night, was born on the 2 1st of September, 1845, at Usingen, the former residence of the Prince of Nassau-Usingen. His father, a well known doctor of laws, August Wil helnij, was of the official aristocracy of North Germany, having been at one time Attorney-General of Prussia. His mother was Charlotte Petry, a famous artiste herself, and a pupil of Anton Andre, of Frederic Chopin and of Mar co Bordogni. The first instructor of Wilhelmi in the art of which he is such a distinguished professor was Conrad i isciiei, 01 w lesuauen, concert master to the Duke of Nassou. His genius rip ened quickly, and in his earliest youth he was almost as famous for his purity of tone and the marvelous accuracy of his ear as he is to-day. In the spring of 1861 he visited Liszt at Weimar, where it is said the great artist and composer, after hearing him, said : "And they have doubted your ability! The violin is your destiny. Had there been no such instrau e it it would have been invented for your sake. Work! Practice! The world will talk of you very soon !" Wilhelnij, after making one or more tours of the continent, went to England in 1875, where he devoted two years with characteristic energy and success to the work of popularizing the theories and the music of liichard Wagner. He has only been in the United States for a short time, but has won a reputation second to no violinist now living in this country. TRIBUTE OF RESPECT. At a special meeting of the town commissioners of Davidson College, N. C, held In the mayor's office, February "2 6th, 1879. the following pream ble and resolutions were unanimously adopted: Whereas, An Inscrutable providence hath this day taken by death our esteemed friend and col league S. T. Thompson; therefore be it Resolved, 1st. That we bow in humble submission to the will of Him, "who doeth all things weU. who is glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders." 2nd, That by his death this community sustains an irreparable loss, and we lose a valuable coun selor. 3rd, That we tender his bereaved companion, children and relations, our heartfelt sympathy In this sad affliction. 4th, That these resolutions be spread on our minutes, and a copy sent to his family; also that a copy be sent to The Charlotte Observes, Char lotte Democrat and Southern Home, for publica Uon.

Tne Death-Rate ot Our country Is getting to be fearfully alarming, the average of life being lessened every year, with out any reasonable cause, death resulUng general ly from the most Insignificant origin. At this sea son of the year especially, a cold Is such a common thing that in the hurry of every day life we are apt to overlook tlie dangers attending it and often find too late, that a Fever or Lung trouble has already set In. Thousands lose their lives in this way ev ery winter, while had Boschee's German Strut been taken, a cure would have resulted, and a large bill from a doctor been avoided. For all diseases of tbe Throat and Lungs, Boschek's German Sirup has proven Itself to be the greatest discov ery of its kind in medicine. Every Druggist In this country will tell you of Its wonderful effect Over 950,000 bottles sold last year without a single failure known. Ease Attainable by tbe Rheamatle. Yes. although they may despair of relief, it is attainable by rheumatic sufferers, for there is a remedy which carries off, by means of increased activity of the kidneys Important channels for blood purification the acrid element to which pathologists the most eminent attribute the painful symptoms a theory completely borne out by urin ary analysis. The name of this grand depurent is Hostettere, a preparation likewise celebrated as a remedy for constipation, which causer contamina tion of the blood with the bile and a certain means of relief in dyspepsia, lever ana ague, ana nervous ailments. It is, perhaps, the finest tonic extant, and is highly recommended as a medicinal stimulant by distinguished physicians and analysts who pronounce it to be eminently pure and very beneficial. The press also endorses it --- ' A Legitimate Triumph In Medicine.
