The temperance organizations of the country, of which the Independent Order ol Rechabites is one, have adopt ed a benefit of the members of their order by which they may be insured in sums ranging from $500 to $2,000. The organization is known as tha "Total Abstinence Beneficiary Asso ciation," and any member of any tem perance order can become entitled to the benefit of the Association by pay ing a small admission fee and a quarter ly assessment of 25 cents for each $500 insured. The person insured must re main true to his obligation and retain his membership in the order or he forfeits i his insurance, and the assessments and fees are made small from the fact that temperance prolongs life. Wo bear that the benefits of the association may soon be obtained in this city. . I .1 Personal. Mr. W. B. McKoy and his mother are on an extended trip North. Mr. David S.

V: r It IS Impossible For any concern that pays for their goods to undersell SHRIEK, ior the twofollowing reasons? 1st. SHRIEK pays spot cash for every dollar's worth of goods purchased. 2nd. Our light expenses and econ omical arrangements'enable ns to sell goods at the very smallest profit possi ble, and our percentage of probt is fre quently much less than it costs other clothiers to pay for their enormous daily, expenses. To other words SnniEit's expenses average about one third or less. Thi3 being the case, our doing a big business lowers the per centage. Wo will cheerfully refund your money if goods are not found sat isfactory and will gladly send goods to your homes for comparison with goods from other stores. It pays to trade at the Old Reliable's all the year round. Convince yourself of the fact. SraaEK, the Old Reliable Clothier, 114 Market St. Sign Oi me uoiuch aiu- We noticed quite a fine display of dog collars at Jacobi's Hardware De Bun WILMINGTON. N. C MONDAY. AUGUST 17, The Directory. We have received from the publish ers, Messrs DeRosset & Meares. the "Directory of Wilmington for 1885." the publication of which' was necessari ly delayed inconsequence of the fire in their establishment several months ago The book contains 158 pages, is well gotten up, and from a cursory exami nation we should think that it is in the main correct. There are a few errorst where were almost unavoidable, but these are less than we have ever seen before in a directory of this city. -In fact some of the so-called directories might much more appropriately, be styled 'indirectories." The press work and binding of the present number are good and the entire work was perform ed in the establishment of the publish crs. . - Uracclul Warriors The young ladies of this city are or ganizing for the purpose ol giving an exhibition drill with flags, and will meet at the armory of the Light In laniry at o'clock to-morrow night to perfect the organization. The drill wiil be something like that given by the young ladies of Ashevillc during the encampment of the State Guard in that city, and we have not a doubt that it will be an elegant affair, which will re flect credit upon our brave femiuine soldiers and also upon' the city. We believe that, with a very little practice they well acquire a proficiency and pre cision of movement which our soldier laddies might will envy, and ail being arrayed in becoming and uniform at tire they will present a graceful appear ance which will leave their masculine compatriots entirely in the shade. Valuable Lands. Wo have heretofore alluded to the fact that Capt. B. L. Perry, of this city, has entered into a contract with the State to drain 80,000 acres of public swamp lands in Carteret county. These land3 are very rich but it has hereto fore been considered that jt would not pay to drain tbem. Capt., Perry thinks otherwise and wc have reason to be lieve that be will succeed and will make a good thing out of it. The following, from the Beaufort Telephone, shows just what these lands are and what they are capable of producing: Mr. Delamar Wells, wnoresides near the "open grounds" at the bead of North river, has corn which is fourteen feet high from the ground to the top of the tassel and it is nine and a half trom the ground to the car, and this by actual measurement. Wo give this as a mor: sel for those to chew who think those lands will not pay for the drainacc. It wo live to see these lands improved and cultivated, wo shall see Carteret one of the wealthiest counties in the State. Cheapest First-Class Music in the United States.
