VOL. V WILMINGTON, N. C., FRIDAY, NOVEMBER
Wc very much fear, that Mahoae is
not all right. VTa don't like to see a
man who insists upon being called a
Democrat, hobnobbing with such people
as Olapp, of the Washington Republi
can, and Graham, chief axe-grinder 'in
the Radical woodpile.
With the change of gauge in, the
Western North Carolina A B-, Wil
mington is about aa far removed from
the transmontaine section ofkhi3'State as
is Galveston, Texas, llem is something
about the change; it is from the Chur-
lottc Observer.
The gauge of the Western North: Car
olina Railroad i3 being changed from
four feet eight inches and a half to five
feet to conform to the gauge of the Rich
mond & Danville Railroad. In conse
quence of this there was no train over
that road yesterday and there will be
none to-day. It is reported here that
the.entire work will be finished by Jo
morrow. The change will necessitate a
transfer of all freight over the Atlantic,
Tennessee & Ohio Railroad at States
ville. It .also gives a continuous line
from Asheville to Richmond, to Beaufort
on the North Carolina coast, to Norfolk
(via the Atlantic, Mississippi & Ohio
Railroad,) to Charleston, to Mobile, to
New Orleans, and indeed all Southern
points and ports. By this change the
Western North Carolina Railroad be
comes part and parcel of the system of
railroads which form the combination
recently constituted, the backbone of
which is the Richmond & Danville Rail
road. New Advertisement?.

Happiness is the absence of pain or
annoyance, and wherever there i3 pain
there is disease. A pam in the lower
portion of the body indicates a disorder
of some kind. If there is any odor or
color or deposit in the urine it means
disease and requires attention at once.
We have heard many of our friends
speak of the remarkable power of War
ner's; Safe Kidney and Liver Cure and
are convinced there is nothing so certain
and valuable for all disorders of the
urinary system, both male and female.

The pound party at St. James Home
on Wednesday night was a success, not
withstanding the very inclement weather.
Had it been fair, as it was last night,

who were to charge are nbt dissatisfied
and they may yet give another oppor
tunity for those who couldn't get out
so sorry you know to come to the rescue.

here then with a fine company.

from Zola's great work, "L'Assommoir."
A Good One.
We desire to mention one conspicuous
circumstance ofelection day at. the :hrif
ty little village of Rocky Point. Mr.
F. W. King, who, about two weeks be
fore,had his left hand badly cut to pieces
his arm broken, besides suffering other
serious injuries, had been confined in
one position until the day of election,
when he, at his earnest solicitation, was
taken up by friends, and in great pain
carried to the polls. We need more such
men in Pender, Mr. King is improving
and hopes to be able to go on light duty
in a few weeks.
nis-First Visit.
Mr. John Butler, a citizen of Carver's
Creek, in Bladen county, and a good
Democrat, is in the city to-day. He is
82 years old or will be in a few months
and although he has lived all of his
life within 50 miles of this city, yet it
is his first visit here. He is a farmer
and lost heavily by the freshets last sum
mer in the Cape .Fear, and was thus
compelledloubuy corn here to-day, the
first, he says, he has over purchased. The
old gentleman tailed in on us this morn
ing and wc were glad to see him.
something About Bananas.
Few people who see bananas hanging
in the shops of fruit dealears think of
them as more than a tropical luxury.
The fact is they are a staple article of
food in some parts of the world, and ac
cording to Humbolt, an acre of. bananas
will produce as much food for a man as
25 acres of wheat.- It is the ease with
which bananas 'are grown that i3 the
great obstacleto civilization in some
tropical countries, . It is so easy to ob
tain a living without work that no effort
will ever be made, and the men become
lazy and shiftless. All that is needed
is to stick a sucker in the ground and it
will at once sprout and ripen its fruit in
twelve or thirteen months without fur
ther care, each plant having from 75 to
125 bananas; and, when that dies away
after fruiting, new suckers spring up to
take its place. In regions were no foot
ever reaches, bananas are found in all
stages of growth, ripening their fruit
every day and every month in the year.
The yellow bananas come from Jamai
ca and Aspinwa.ll, and the red bananas
from Cuba. The yellow bananas sell
the best because they grow more to the
bunch. A bunch of yellow bananas
average about ten dozen, and sometimes
they average as many as twenty dozen,
while the red bananas seldom run over
five dozen. The bunches are sold at
about the same price. The flavor of the
bananas depends greatly on the soil in
which it is raised. Jamaica i3 most fa
vored in this respect.

Give Co the Poor
The worthy President- of the Ladies'
Benevolent Association in this city re
quests us to state publicly through
the columns of this paper that the Asso
ciation is without a dollar in the treasu
ry, and several bills yet unpaid ; this,
too,'with the probability of a severe
winter near at hand.
The p -r must be provided for, the
sick aud needy must be taken care of.
This is but common humanity, while to
provide for the poor widow and orphan
who arc left without protectors, as far
as in you lie?, is but carrjiog out. the J
cardinal principles of unrtstianity' and
performing an act of Christian charity
which the Divine Master evidently con
templated whan He said, "the poor ye
have always with you." Think of this.rich
man, when with a full stomach after a
hearty meal and with slippers on, you
repose your body in a comfortable chair
before a good warm fire and light your
cigar or pipe for a smoke. Think of : !i ?,
young man, when you play'thrtv r four '
"
games of billiards m an even aud
smoke as many costly cigars! Think of
this, young woman, whenJyou are spend
ing money lavishly upon some ornament
for the head. Let every one think of the
poor and send in some donation at once
to the worthy ftnd estimable lady in
this city who is giving almost her entire
time to the cause of charity. ..
Water street merchants will keep their
feet dry in Winter by wearing Rosen
thal's boots and shoes. f
Catarrh Sometimes
commences with a cold, but its cure
always commences with the use of Sage's
Catarrh Remedy. This old, reliabie,
and well-known remedy has stood th
test of years, and was nevermore pop
ular than now.
