W All of the living descendants of the Washington and Curtis families have been invited to the centennial in New York. The boom in realty injNew York knows no pause or shadow of pause. Money is easy there and there is still a steady advance in values. A new invention to prevent col lisions at sea, consisting of a small plate fixed at the side of the vessel, has been very successfully tried on the Thames. Electricity is the ac tive agent. The approach of another vessel within two miles euss a bell to sound, and an' indicating arrow shows the direction whence it conies It is said to be a solemn fact that every room in every hotel in New York is engaged for the 30th. There are thousands of applications which the landlords are trying hard to fill by engaging apartments in houses and halls. One hotel man says that he has already refused 2,000 appli cations. The parks and the curb stones will probably be full of house- L less sightseers. Will Your Read this for500?

We regret very much to learn of the death at Point Caswell, on Sat tirday last, of Miss Kate; the oldest daughter of Ex-Sheriff A. R. Black. She was a charming and accomplish ed young lady, only 22 years of age, the joy and comfort of her father's household and beloved by all who knew her. We tender the bereaved family our most sincere sympathies in their great loss. Doe 8 Not Cross the Track. We were misinformed as to the line of the Onslow Railroad passing through Capt. Southerland's race track. It goes near the track but does not touch it; in fact, there is a quarter of a mile or so between the line and the track. It runs along the old plank road about three miles from town, and to its left. It then goes down through Mr. John B. Harriss' field and continuing to the left of the old plank road, eomes out about a half-mile this side of I Capt. Macomber's store, the store being seven miles from town. It is said that this is not an experimental line but the line on which the road will be actually located. Dead and Unknown The dead body of an unknown white man was found yesterday af' ternoon in a dense thicket, about 100 yards from the Federal Point road, near Jumping Run, much decayed. It was discovered by Mr. J. EL Hewitt and when found had been plucked and mutilated considerably by the birds. JThe body was lying face downwards, with the head in about three inches of water. It was that of a man about 35 or 40 years of age. clad in a gray checked coat and pants, with narrow light and dark stripes, a run-down pair of brogan shoes, and an old light colored felt hat, which rested on the back of the head. In the left hand there was an old clay pipe with reed stem, about half .full of tobacco, and in one of the pockets of the pants a small chunk of salt pork. This was all that was found on or near the body, and there was nothing that would afford the slightest clue as to the identity of the dead man. He was about five feet, six or seven inches in height, stout and well built.'and in life would probably weigh about 150 pounds. No marks of violence were found on the body and no one who saw the remains could identify the man. The jury rendered a verdict "that the man, name unknown, came to his death from causes unknown to the jury, in a bay near J. W. King's place in New Hanover county.'

S. Government, who was sent here to examine the disease which has been developed among the horses in this city. The article was in type and on the gal ley but was overlooked, along with other matter, in making up and hence did not appear. We regret this, as it was a good item and we get it. Dr. Wray found that th disease was the genuine glanders, but hopes hat we may be able soon to stamp it out. It is an incurable disease, and is dangerous alike to man and beast to the latter, we take it, in the way of pyaemia, or blood pois oning, by its introduction to the human system through abrasions of the skin.
