Good Work.
The Woodbury digs out on an average
two hundred and fifty yards of sand
per day. She is now operating in the
Seward Channel. The pilots report six
inches more water on the bar than there
was before she commenced work. Tie
maximum number of yards per day made
by the oid Woodbury w.s seventy-five.
Getting Larger.
The shoals is the horse shoe and in the
river are said to be getting larger. The
idea of those who are in charge of the
river and harbor improvements is that in
deepening the water on the bar the shoals
will be washed eat but there is no doubt
that the Woodburg will be pat en the
shoals to dig them out.

Items from Pender.
From a gentleman who reached the city
yesterday from our sister county of Pender
we gather the following facts and incidents:
On Sunday evening, the 4th inst., the
residence of Mr. W. W. Lark ins, near
Reilley's Creek Church, in Pender, was en-
tered during the temporary absence of Mr.
Larkins and family and a considerable
number of articles of wearing apparel and
bed clothing stolen and carried dff. The
thief or thieves also broke open the jewelry
box of Mr. L.'s wife and succeeded in es-
be ferreted out and brought to justice.

And a workman's twang he had,
But underneath you plain could see

And human rights and laws.''

The fac tis quite otherwise. The catatogae
states exactly what the papers are. When
the name of a paper is printed in FULL
FACE TY'E it is in every instance tbe BEST
paper in the place. When printed in CAPI
TALS it is the ONLY paper in the place.
When printed in roman. letters it is neither
tbe best nor tbe only paper, bat is usually a
very good one, notwithstanding. The iht
gives the population of every town and the
circulation or eyery paper, IT IS NOT A
CO-OPERATIVE LIST. IT 18 NOT A
CHEAP LIST. At the Toot of the Catalogue
for each St te the important towns which are
not coTered by the list are enumerated. IT
Id AN HONEST LIST. The rates charged
for advertising are barely one-fifth tbe pub
lishers' schedule. The price for single States
ranges from fl to (60. Tbe price for one;
