The frequently arriving and departing trains, the1 immense piles of camp equipage which crowd ed the platform, the uniformed war riors who paced the planks, the vans standing ready waiting to be loaded with baggage and . the shouts of laborers as they rapidly disposed of eauiDacre and baercragre, formed a bright and animated scene. Capt, T. J. Southerland had the contract for removing everything from the depot to the camp and he had a large force there r of horses and vehicles and men to do the work under his personal suspension. He nas also reauv wagonettes and car-' riages to take parties to and fro be tween the depot and the camp and these will be on hand to connect with every train during the En campment. Miss Aunie DeKosaet. Miss Annie DeRosset returned a few days since from a, visit, to Lex ington, Ky., where she had gone, by invitation, to attend Kentucky Chautauqua Assembly, and to sing there. Her success there, and the impression she made upon all who heard her eiquisite voice, is told in the following, which we clip from the Assembly Notes, the organ of the Chautauqua Assembly: Miss DeRosset's departure yester day afternoon was a cause of "regret much more sincere and deep than is often felt at the departure of one known only for a week or there abouts: The "Lexington - public is usually as slow to form attachments as it is constant after they are form ed, but this young singer, with tne entrancing voice'' and modest bear ing, has won them In a body and at first sight. She sang as a farewell yesterday morning, before Dr. Hen- son's lecture, "rue uiu rveniucKy Home," and nothing j that she had previously rendered seemed! to suit so well the tender expressiveness of her pure face, however equally all her selections suit . her voice.

WEDNESDAY. JULY 10, 1889. A HOT FIIIE. Messrs. l'arsley & Wiggins' Planing Mill and Sash and Blind Factory Destroyed A Vessel Burned at the TVharf-Losses Very Heavy. ; ' At 2 o'clock this morning an alarm of fire was sounded from Messrs; Pars ley &WIggins'steam saw and planing mills, located at Hilton, in the ex treme northern part of the city. The Are was first discovered by the watchman in a part of, the mill where Mr. Gooding, the Foreman, says there had been no fire at: all during the day and the only plaus ible theory of its orign is that it was caused by some one passing, to or from one of the vessels lying at the wharf emptying a pipe there with fire in it or carelessly throwing in there a hghted cigar or a match. It was a small fire when first discov ered and the watchwan tried to smother it but failing in this he sent in an alarm. Some precious time was thus consumed and when the three fire steamers arrived at the bridge of the C. C. R. R., several hundred yards from the mill, they halted, as it was. deemed unsafe to venture on the bridge with the en gines. They then lai .1 their hose to the fire and were soon hard at work. The fire, however, had by this time gained headway and the plaining mill and the sash and blind factory were already a seething mass of flames. It was liard work but the firemen buckled to it with a hearty good will and succeeded' in saving the gang mill and the circular saw mill. Parts of the' latter and the office were on fire several times but Were saved. Lying at the wharf at the time were three tow schooners,the 8am uel B. Vrooman, loading for Phila delphia, with 200,000 feet of lumber in the noia; tne jsciiie sawyer, tor Boston, with 230,000 feet, and the Fanny Tracy, of New York, with 160,000 feet. The two last pulled, dut into the stream and escaped but the Vrooman was burned at the wharf. No effort was made to save her. It is said that there were but two of the crew on board at the time and the Captain claims that-, the vessel was aground and could not be mov -ed. i She will prove a total loss but it is hoped that the cargo will be saved. The steam tug Marie ar rived on the scene and tried to save her ; but could not do so. She is burned almost to the water's edge with her three masts standing bare and blackened against the sky, 1 There were about 300,000 feet of lumber on the yard and wharf and it is estimated that about 100,000 feet of this was saved. ' The loss is roughly estimated at between $20,000 and 25,000, with partial insurance. The mills were splendidly equipped and in firstclass order. Theyvhave been running for about'thirty years, in common with the Chadbourn Mills, the Kidder Mills,and theNorthrop Mllls,and it is the first time a serious fire has oc curred at either of the four in that period. , We are glad to know that the en terprising proprietors of the Hilton Mills! will rebuild the destroyed works jest as soon as the debris can be cleared away. As far as we could ascertain ,therB was no insntaoe on the Vrooman but Messrs. Parsley & Wiggins were insured as follows; With Messrs. Atkinson & Man ningj $1,000 in city of London, and $1,000 in North Carolina Home on planing mill;and $1,500 inlnperial, of London, and $500 in Hartford Fire, with on sash and blind factory' - . .

The sad news of the death of Mr. Morris Bear, recei ved here last even ing by telegraph, was heard with great tegret by his many friends in this city. It was only a few weeks ago that we shook hands with him here and imagined that he looked greatly improved. For many years past his health has been, delicate and for sqme.itme he. has, sojourned at Rutherford ton. He has recently been traveling inbe Vest and yes- terday'died suddenly at Marlon, N. 0,, soon after his arrival there. The remains will arrive here this even ing and the funeral will take place at 9.30 tomorrow morning. 1 ' Mr. Bear was 41 years of age, and unmarried. He was the head of the large I wholesale- honse of Morris Bear & Bros., of this city. He was a man of a quiet, reserved : disposi tion but of a kinilly heart and of a j generous nature.'
