with a hard brush scrub the globes un

Rales tor ine Rerenae Service.
Regulations have just been issued by
the commissioner internal revenue for
observance by revenue officers, district
attorneysf -marshals and clerks of the
U nit v courts, respecting cases
arising under the internal revenue laws
in which the United States is a party,
and respecting the custody and disposi
tion of real estate acquired by the Uni
ted States under those laws. The offi
cers mentioned are to co-operate actively
vigorously and heartily in the suppres
sion of frauds upon the internal revenue,
observing at the same time caution,
prudence and economy. The commis
sioner directs that, where persons know
ingly and wilfully violate the law with
the evident intention of defrauding the
government of its revenue, rigorous
measures should be taken to bring them
to trial and punishment, but it is sug
gested that no encouragement should be
given to the commencement of prosecu
tions for moral, technical, slight and
unintentional oSenses involving no loss
to the government and where no ques
tion of fraud is involved, and that all
complaints presented by professional
informers should receive careful scrutiny
before prosecution begins. District at
torneys are relied upon for the prompt
and efficieit preparation and prosecution
of all cases, and are held primarily res
ponsible for failure to bring cases to a
speedy trial. It is directed that there
should be no unnecessary delay in the
proceedings to enforce collections of
jadgments when obtained.

Capture of a Tblef.
Allen Armstrong, the colored boy who
robbed the residence of Mr. W. B. Mc-
Koy on Tuesday last, was captured
last night, near Rocky Point. Officer
ToneyJAshe, learning that Allen had
gone to Rocky Point, followed him up
and there ascertained that the culprit's
parents lived about five miles distant on
the Point Caswell road. Ashe had the
warrant issued in this county endorsed
by a Magistrate of Pender and then
went on after his man, arriving at the
home of Armstrong's parents about 9
o'clock. Armstrong had arrived only a
few minutes ahead of the officer and was
displaying the articles, telling his parents
that they were things he had bought.
He was arrested and carried back to
Rocky Point where the officer and his
prisoner boarded the train and arrived
in this city about ten o'clock.
The clue which led to the capture oftho
thief is as . follow: Armstrong gave
Mollie King a new pair of ladies shoes
for a trunk, and placed the articles in it,
telling the woman that he was going to
Rocky Point She carried the shoes down
street and tried to swap them with shoe
dealer for a larger pair. The dealer
recongnixed them immediately as a pair
he bad sold to one of the ladies of Mr.
McKoy's family and notified Mr. McK.
of it, but kept his eye on the woman un
til an officer could be put on her track.
In endeavoring to swap the shoes she
stated that she had paid $1.50 for them,
which is not one-half of their value.
Armstrong it now in jail, having been
committed by Justice Hill for trial at
this term of tne Crimidal Court
Catarrh Sometimes
commences with a cold, but its cure
always commences with the use of Sage's
Catarrh Remedy. This old, reliable,
and well-known remedy has stood ? th
test of years, and was never more pop;
ular than now.
Another Burjr ary.
The dwelling of Henry Brewington
colored, on Harnett, between Fourth
and Fifth streets, was burglarized last
night. It was between 2 and 3 o'clock
and Brewington heard him and made a
dash for the rascal who was in such a
hurry to leave that he left his shoes and
hat behind him. He got away, however,
with $2.50 in money which he abstracted
from Brewington's pockets.
Criminal Ccurt
This Court convened at the regular
hour this morning and disposed of the
following cases:
State vs. C. II. Grant, resisting an of
ficer. All cases against defendant have
bsen removed to the Superior Court of
Pender county and set for 10 o'clock on
Wednesday of the first week.
State- vs. W. H. Goodman, assault
and battery. Guilty. This is the case
in which J. T. Edens was made prosecu
tor on Tuesday, and the one in which the
jury were discharged on account of their
being unable to agree upon a verdict -
It was taken up again today, the juiy
returning a verdict of guilty. The as
sault was committed in Capt. Goodman
arresting Mr. Eden in compliance with a
city ordinance then inforce.
Hickory Nuts and dliell-barks.
Hickory-nuts are quoted in the New
York market at 51.50 to S1.75 per
bushel, and yet they arc not hickory"
nuts, after all; at all events, not such as
we know in North Carolina as hickory
nuts. They are shell-barks, an article
considerably in demand during the winter
season and which are brought here from
the North, retailing here at about 75
cents a peck. The shell-bark is a spe
cies of the hickory-tree. It grows In
North Carolina, in the middle and West
ern parts of the State, but not to any
very great extent. We know of at
least one instance where a I033 has been
entailed by gathering hickory-nuts for
shipment, the parties having been misled
by the quotations in the New York pa
pers. Not Much Benefit to Us.
You can eat your breakfast now in
New York and your supper in Wilming
ton, according to the new fast schedule
provided you will eat in New York be
fore 4 o'clock and in Wilmington after
10. This is about all of the advantage
however, the fast mail promises to prove
to the people of thi3 city. We get our
New York papere and letters now jnst
a3 we did a week ago. They arrive here
now, it is true, about 10 o'clock at night
of the day on which they leave New
York, but we do not get them until
next morning. Letters received here
from New York, say to-day, were written
on Tuesday and the actual time, from
hand to hand, is not the 17-hour schedule
of the fast mall but from 30 to 40 hours.
However, this is our misfortune and no
body's fault. It so happens that Wil
mington is not benefited while other
points are. Richmond and Petersburg
and Norfolk will all get their mails in
the afternoon and evening and Goldsboro
early in the night,while Charleston and
Augusta will receive theirs just as we do
ours. If the fast train could have been
scheduled to leave New York at 4 or 5
o'clock in the afternoon it would have
just suited us as that would have given
us, at the same time or reception here,
New York mail matter 12 hours later
than tkat now received. -
