I Sudden Death.
It is with sincere regret that we are
called upon to announce the death of Mr.
William Farrior one of the most respected
and much esteemed citizens ot Duplin
county, who dropped dead in his field near
Kenansville yesterday afternoon,
j Mr. Farrior had been nnwell for some
time, but was not considered dangerously
Lo, aod his sudden demise has caused a
shock of sadness among a large circle of
children, relatives and friends. j
The deceased has filled many positions
of trust and honor in his county, the
most recent and notable ?of which was
his membership of the late Conbtitutional
Convention of North Carolina, which
formed the Constitution under which we
now live.
Mr. Farrier was about Y5 years of age
and he died as he had lived, a respected
citizen and an honest man, of whom it
can well be said, truly a good man hath
departed.
Base Ball.
The match game of baseball between
the Champion and- the Home Clubs of
this' city was played at the Athletic
Grounds yesterday afternoon. The game
was' very closely contested throughout,
with victory hanging about evenly bal
anced between the respective clubs until
the very last moment. Quite a large num
ber ot visitors wore present who mani
fested the liveliest interest in the progress
of the game. j - j
Mr. John J. Fowler acted as Umpire,
and Messrs. G. H. Smith and J. W,
Mcares as Scorers.

The New Market-Its Dimensions aad
Faculties.
As the new Market House bm Idlng la
beginning to assume its proportions the
community generally are asking questions
about it and seem to be desirous of know-
lag its dimensions, facilities, etc We
examined the chart of the building this
morning, the minute details of which
wre explained to us by Mr. J. H. Vaug-
ban and Mr. John E. Lippitt. When
completed, the market will su- ply
long.felt need in this community and will
compete in beauty, durability and facili
ties with any Market House in a city the
Bize of Wilmington in the country. The
building is 70 feet wide by 208 feet long
Oa each aide of the building, there will
be cart sheds 18 feet wide, making the
width of the Market House and sheds 106
feet. Ihe level of front walls is 36! feet
from grade line. The centre portion of
the front is 65 feet high.
The tower on northeast corner of the
building will be 15 feet square by 84 feet
high to top of finial. The tower will be
arranged for a belfry and 0ity clock. A
corresponding tower on the Southeast cor
ner of the building is 15 feet square by
64 feet high and will be finished eff by
an appropriate finial. The top portion of
this tower will be provided with a reser
voir to be supplied fromf the river by a
force pump and to be used in washing out
and cleansing the building. The average
height of the side walls will be 25 feet.
The Market is to be supplied with fifty
eight stalls fitted up with native wooe s
and marble, and the cart sheds will have a
holding capacity of 200 carts. Access to
the sheds are bountiful: there being
doors every eight feet j apart
opening in the Eheds. The
front of the building will be supplied
with two stores and one restaurant. There
will also be two ! restaurants on
Water street. Over the stores is to be a
room 28 by 40 feet and two smaller ones,
14 by 34 feet, besides suitable and appro
priate offices for janitors and the superin
tendent of the Market. The stores, res
taurants and rooms, are to be heated by a
furnace, and will be supplied witb small
flues. Two main avenues 14 feet wide
will ran the entire length of the building
from Front to Water street.
There will be twenty-two
side ayenues
communicating with the cart sheds on each
side. The building will be provided with a
clear story in the centre 36 feet high to
the bottom of the ventilator, which is to
be 12 feet wide, and 9 feet high, running
the entire length of the building. The
sides of the ventilator will be made of
glass wit h adjustable sash so as to admit
plenty of light and fresh air.
The projectors of the enterprise have
paid considerable attention to the matter
of light and ventilation. There are 37
doors and windows on each side of the
Market and eleven in the front of the
building, besides two entrances to the
Market from Water street,
i i '! I
All prciuce, meats etc,1 are to be kept
under shelter and out of the weather and
owing to the admirable construction of
the building, persons marketing in rainy
weather are relieved of the unpleasant
necessity of making their selections of
country produce with the rain pouring
down on them, as is no the case,
THE FISH MARKET
'I l
Is to be constructed of wood, on the
wharf immediately in the rear of the
Market House. It is to be 50 feet wide
and 88 feet long. It 1 will be sepplied

36 stalls. To the South of it there is to
be a dock 20 feet wide to be used j by the
fish boats. There will also.be a sufficient

The Fire This Morning.
The alarm of fire which was sounded this
morning about 4 o'clock,was causedby tl e
burning of the carriage factory cf Alder
man James Lowery, situated on the cor
ner of Fourth and Campbell streets. There
are conflicting accounts about j what part
of the building the fire first originated. It
was no deubt the work of an incendiary
who doubtless had set his mind on plun
der. ! The factory tools and stock wu &
total loss. The dwelling next adjoining
the factory whieh was also owned and
occupied by j Alderman Lowreyj caught
fire, but was soon extinguished without
much damage to it. Quite a number of
articles, including wearing apparel, bed
ding and a carpet were stolen'during the
excitement which ensued. A sable
brother was seen making off in the direci
tion of the cemetery with a large bundle
on his back during the raging ef the fire
and it is thought to have been the miss
ing carpet. The building on the oppc
site side of Fjurth street, occupied

was slightly damaged. Aldermen Lowery
had an insurance of $800 on the building
and $350 on stock and tools in the Royal
of Liverpool, represented in this city by
Mr. Norwood Giles, but it is estimated
that his loss will amount to $1,500 over
and above the (insurance. His dwelling
was iasured in j Atkinson & Manning's
Agency and the damage is fully covered.

the fire spread the Fire Department kept
