The patriotic John Sher man, the man who poses as a statesman and a philanthrophist on the floor of the Senate, is being shown up in a very bad light just now. Ex-Gov. Foster, another Re publican luminary, is in the. same bad box. They have been detected in an attempt to defraud the - State of Ohio by a failure to list their properties .Tor taxation. They call them "tax-jumpers' which is a very polite and pleasant way of mention ing the matter Sherman is said to be worth his minion?. He was de tected in his little gaime a few years ago and had to ante up $19,000. He begged "for God's sake" that the matter might be kept quiet, and he was of course accommodated. Fos ter is worth his millions also and yet he had listed but $25,000 for taxti tion. He will be made to squeal and squeeze. It is just as we said a few days ago; the rich men make the laws and the poor men pay the taxes.

Mr. Stilt's Address. Rev. W. C. Stitt, Corresponding Secretary of the American Seaman's Friend Society, of New York, ad dressed a large congregation last night in the First Presbyterian Chinch. The meeting was opened with devotional exercises, led by Mr. John McLaurm. Mr. SCitt's address was of very great interest and dis played facts and statistics unknown to most of his hearers. He stated that the American Seamen's Friend of New York had been in existence 62 years. During that time they had spent many millions of dollars in the interest of the seamen. They have now 14 foreign stations and 14 home stations, where services are had and missionary work done among the sailors. He spoke of the life of the sailor on board ship; his hard duties; his exposure to the wind and the weather and the waves; his liability to be called on deck at any hour during the twenty four to battle with the elements; the dan gers and distresses and diseases of the life; his sufferings and priva tions and, worse than all, the land sharks who lay in wait for their prey at every port. The estimate was that 5,000 sailors had visited this port during the year 1889 and that 1,400 of these came under the in fluence of low resorts. Mr. Stitt gave the average sea life of a man at 12 years and that of a fireman on board of a large steamship at three years.

Old Bad Blood may yet be conquered and disease driven from the citadel of life. You have not used the proper remedy, or long ago you would have felt a change.

Why have you not tried B. B. B. (Botanic Blood Balm) made in Atlanta, Ga. ? Because it isn't advertised so conspicuously as other remedies? Well, that's a poor rea son.

The Monroe Enquirei has this to say of a gentleman who some years ago removed from this city, of which he is a native, to Monroe: "The many friends of Mr. C.H. Policy will be glad to learn that he has decided to remain in Monroe. A few weeks ago he sold his residence here to Mr. A. J. Hargett and went to Ashe ville to spy out the land, but not being pleased with the prospect he has returned to Monroe, determined to wait for the boom. Mr. Policy is a good citizen, and we would have re gretted exceedingly to have lost him. The Star of r.ethlehem. The usual Spring talk of the Star of Bethlehem is cropping up again. An exchange says: "Astronomical calculations show that we shall wit ness a most interestingphenomenon in the course of 1890. A sixth star will be added to the five fixed stars froming the constellation of Cassio peia. This is commonly known as the Star of Bethlehem, and it will have been seen seven times since the beginning of the Christian era. It was discovered the last time it appeared by Tycho Brahe, in 1572, who described it as "a star of ex traordinary brightness, which out shone the stars of first magnitude, ami could be seen in the light of the day." But after three weeks the brightness faded, and after hav ing been visible for seventeen month's it disappeared as suddenly as it had come. The star is on re cord in the annals of 1204 A. D., and of 945, A. D., during the Emperor Otto's reign. It has been supposed that this heavenly body is the iden tical Star of Bethlehem, and it seems to appear once in about 315 vears." The Industrial Manufacturing Company. It is with great pleasure that we announce the completion of the work at the above establishment on yesterday evening and the ma chinery put to work for the first time. Everything worked beauti fully and satisfied all present that Mr. E. F. Johnson, as manager, and Mr. E. M. Titus, the inventor of the Titus butter dish machine, are per fectly, at home and know what they are doing. The two veneering ma chines work splendidly, and so far as we know the first piece of veneer ing ever turned out in Wilmington was made at these works yesterday. The first butter dish was given Mr. W. H. Bernard and the second to Mr. O. M. Fillyaw, ami Mr. F. told tnV first pound of butter in the new ly-made dish to-day. The capacity of the butter dish machine is 60,000 per day. In addi tion to these, berry baskets, fruit plates, diamond market baskets, bean boxes and many other useful things will also be turned out here, as also chair seats and backs and railroad car seats and backs. Mr. Titus will remain only until the whole machinery is in thorough running order. He is evidently a master workman and fully posted as to all that is required. Wilmington can now boat of an other new enterprise inaugurated and conducted by Wilmingtonians. and by next Monday it will In- in readiness to begin in earnest. The President, 3Ir. John I.
