The Ladies Regatta..
The yacht race of the Carolina
Yacht Club yesterday, over the
regular course at Wrightsville, which
was a "ladies' race" and probably
the last regular regatta of the sea
son, was one of the most successful,
in the way of attendance and inter
est, that has been sailed this season.
The boats started on time in the
order following with a light breeze
from the southeast:
Mabel G. II. Smith.
Sprite A. J. Flanner.
Mammie B H. L. Fennell.
Little Alice S. P. Cowan.
Frolic Jas Worth.
Phantom Robt. Williams.
Lillian Florence H. M. Bowden,

Pirate Norwood Qiles.
The Pirate came in first, and the
other yachts in this order; Lillian
Flprence, Ljt$le Alice, Phantoili
Mamie B, Sprite, Frolic, Mabel.
The pirate was the winner of the
first class yachts, the Lillian FJor
ence of the secopd class and the
Mprite of the third.
The judges were Mrs. E. Peschau.
Miss Hattie Taylor and Miss Mc
L.aurin,
The band from the Island Beach

dered several fine selections during
the race.
There was a dance in the Club

E. Peschau, pastor, to-morrow,
will be in German at 11 a. m.'and

The Iiadies Delighted.
The pleasant effect and the per
fect safety with which ladies may
use the liquid fruit laxative, Syrup
of Figs, under all conditions make it
their fayonte remedy. It is pleasing
to the eye and to the taste, gentle,
yet effectual in j acting on the kid
neys, liver and bowels. " .
Addition to the City Hospital.
A two story frame addition is be
ing made to the Hospital. . It will
have six rooms and it is expected
that several of the city churches
will apply each for one of these
rooms where they can visit the in
mates and administer to their com
fort. The ladies of St- John's Church
have already applied and been as
signed one of these rooms.
Mr. Short is Better.
We are glad to know that Mr. H.
B. Short, who has been very sick
for nearly two weeks past, at his
residence at Waccamaw Lake, is
pronounced better to day. He suf
fered with a severe attack of ton
sillitis and this was supplemented
with a malarial attack. Drs. W. G.
and Geo. G. Thomas have been in
close attention on him, each spend"
ing alternate nights at his bedside.
Mr. Short's friends and relatives
have been very anxious as to his
condition but the gratifying news
to day will serve to greatly lighten
the burden of this anxiety.
Turn on the, Lights.
The electric lights are in some
instances badly placed. There should
be more of them or the locality of
some of those we now have should
be changed. .In several instances
they are in low places, instead of on
high ones. Lights are particularly
needed at the corner of Third and
Red Cross streets, as Campbell
street maizes very near the W. & W
R. R., North of Red Cross, and at
Front and Red Cross streets, at the
approaches tD Front Street Depot.
An electric light at this latter point
would also serve to illuminate the
Nutt. street approach to the railroad
yards, as well as the street crossing
the tracks.
'ThelSeptemher Skies. "
September is the richest month of
all the year, says the Providence
Journal, in the events that crown
its course. Its advent is made illus
trious by the occultation of Jupiter,
a charming celestial picture. Tlie
closest conjunction of Saturn and
Mars that astronomy records finds
place during its passage, and is visi
ble if the clouds are kind to obser
vers willing to .rise in small hours to
be present at the celestial exhibi
tion, The presence of the three
planets, Venus, Saturn and Mars,
and the bright star Regulus inclose
vicinity, is another interesting fea;.
ture of the month. The autumnal
equinox must not v be forgotten
among the gifts that September
holds, for then sun and earth seem
to act in heavenly harmony, the
earthftaking in the sunshine as if it
were the elixir-of life, One thing
only is Reeded, to give the culminate
ing glory to the September nights.
It is the harvest moon of the 9th,
that rises for four evenings after the
full, with only an average differ
ence of 27 in the time of rising. No
celestial picture of the year is more
surpassingly lovely. As the sun
sinks below the western horizon,
the round, full moon appears in the
east, and, 'mounted in her silver
car," makes her shining way over
the heavenly pathway, flooding the
sleeping earth with silvery light,
and forming pictures of entrancing
beauty, Other planets are larger,
several have more satellites, and
one planet rejoices in rings of gold
spanning the sky; but we are con
tented with our awn beautiful earth,
ite solitary moon, and the favored
position it holds among the sun's
family of worlds.

Kev. Mr. Pegchau's Vacation.
Rev. F. W. E. Peschau, Pastor
of Sr. Paul's E. L. Church in this
eity, and who is also President of
the North Carolina Synod of his
church, spent his vacation this year
in laboring for the benefit of the
Lutheran churches in the central
ounties of the State, We copy
here two extracts to show just how
he has won the hearts of his people
where he has keen. The Salisbury
Herald says:
Last Sunday was a day of unusual
interest) for the Lutheran people
of St. John's Church. At an early
hour the church was well filled with
am intelligent audience, eager to
hear Rev. F. W. E. Peschau, of the
German-English Evangelical Luth
eran Church at Wilmington, an
President of the North Carolina
Synod, i Rev. Mr. Peschau is not
only a scholarly and accomplished
gentleman; but an able and most
interesting preacher. He is wel
informed on most all subjects, pro
gressive and very enthusiastic for
the welfare and advancement of the
church. His Sundav morning ser
mon and Sunday night address were
well received and favorablv sooken
of on every side by those who heard
mem.
The Lutheran Visitor, in speaking
of Mt. PJeasant, in Cabarrus county,
and its churches and educational
institutions, speaks of Mr. Peschau
as follows:
Rev. Mr. Peschau, the very efli
eient and zealous President of the
North Carolina Synod, deserves
special mention and praise in con
neciion witn omciai work. His
Summer vacation has been spent in
doing mission work for the Synod.
f"He made ma-nv friends while
here and left as the most popular
visiting minister that has been to
Salisbury for many davs. The jren
eral verdict is. that Mr. Peschau is
an accomplished gentleman, well
informed, progressive and ever en
thusiastic for the welfare and ad
vancemeht of his church.
