Nil ton Nobles and troupe appeared at the Opera House last night to a good audience in Mr. Nobles' own "Play of "A Man of the People." Nobles is in- imicable and in his peculiar Hue is a great actor. His Jack Ryder could not be surpassed. He has been felicitous in the selection of his troupe and comes before the people this season with a corps of fine actors to support him in his original characters. We missed the familiar farce of Alonzo Schwatz. but Mr. Max Fehrmann played his part equally as well if not better' than his predecessor. The violin player 1 who accomnanies the troupe was very fine in his parts, and ably sustains a repu tatioh in keeping with that of the troupe. has visited the city this season. We invite attention to the advertise ment of James A. Lowery, the well- known wheelwright and blacksmith, as it appears in this Issue. He has opened a new establishment on Princess between Third and Fourth streets, where he is prepared to do all work that may be entrusted to him, promptly and well. He has had an experience of 44 years,' and is able to do all that he promises to do:' - .;r 'r.r-'- - r From tho report of the proceedings of the stockholders of the Wiimington & Weldon iRj R., held in this city to-day, it will be seen that the matter of build ing the proposed cut-off from Wilson to Florence has - been I for the present abandoned. Hostile legislation is the cause of this action. Tho Ladies of the Fifth Street M. E.
