The Board of Medical Examiners are in session, and have examined nearly forty applicants for licenses to practice under our Slate laws. The Board is very searching and rigid in their examination, but not too much so.. So much for the protection of the public health and for the cause of medical improvement in North Caro lina. Nearly ' one dozen applicants have been rejected after a full and fair examination. The subject of the State Board of Health made this annual ' meeting much larger than usual, especially as it was known that under the recent amendments of the Legislature, a new election, by ballot, of members of the board. wasSrequired at this meeting. The election was animated. H The fol lowing gentlemen were elected: To serve for tho ensuing six years -Drs. S. .S. Satchwell, of Pender county, and 1 nomas Jb. VYood,of Wilmington.

OPERA HOUSE. The Complimentary Concert to 01r. Kabnweller. The concert complimentary to Mrs. D. Kahnweiler, at the Opera House last even- ng, was beyond question one of the best of the, many amateur concerts . that have been given in Wilmington recently. Un der the skilled and experienced direction otProf; C. "Van Laer, the pieces on the programme followed each other in smooth and rapid succession, and the finale elicited from the large audience in attendance a unanimous expression of approval of the affair as a whole. i, ; ; The Cornet Concert Club opened the en- 1 tertainment with' a' spirited and skilfully rendered selection entitled "Autumn Leaves," and was followed by a decidedjy ! creditable rendition of the overture, "Obe- I ron," by the Misses Atkinson and Mn Re- ! man. . f - ! We have never listened to a professional quartette with anything approaching the pleasure given us by the . singing of Messrs. Hargrave, Mitchell, Welch and Manning last evening. It is unquestion- ' ably the best quartette we have ever heard and Mr. Edwin Thorpe, their accompanist and director, is entitled to a large share of praise for their deserved, success. Of Mrs. Kahnweiler, Mr. Nathan Mayer, and Mrs George Welsh, it is hardly neces sary for us to speak. , Mrs. Kahnweiler sang a solo, ."Polonaise," from ,'Mignon," and the iolo, "Carnival of Venice," as only Mrs. Kahnweiler could have 9ung them, and was loudly en cored, as was ' also Mr. Nathan Mayer on his rendition of a tenor solo', en titled "Trusting," by Millard. Mr. Mayer responded with "Geod-byc, Sweetheart," n charming style. Mr. Welsh sang a comic baritone solo, and was thrice encored and enthusiastically received on each appearance. This gen tleman is a singing comedian of ability, and never fails to please an audience. ' The orchestral music of the concert was exceptionally pleasing, the selection from the opera of "Don. Pasquale," the execu tion of "La Satanella," and the lovely Strauss Waltz being given in a manner which could have hardly been excelled anywhere. The difficult instrumental trio. "Trovatore," performed by the Misses At kinson and Mr. Reman, was loudly ap plauded and deservedly for the artistic manner of its execution. The solo, "The Diver," by Mr. Jas. H. Chadbourn, Jr., was, in our opinion, one of the best pieces of the programme. We heartily congratulate the gentleman on his effort, and trust that he will, let us hear him more frequently in the future. Mrs. M. P. Taylor played the accompa niment for Mrs. Kahnweiler and others of the performers, who would consent to have no one else a fact attesting in itself the lady's ability and proficiency. The Concert was concluded at a late hour, and the audience dispersed, charmed with the pleasure they had been given by attending. HtmtBHir Public sebool Bxerclse Yesterday. In accordance with an invitation, a repre sentative of the Star was present at a pub lic exhibition of this school yesterday morning. The school is under the super vision of Mrs. Flora M-iWise, as Princif- Dal. with Mrs. Laura P. Rothwell, Mrs. M. O. Wallace, Miss Alice Philyaw and Miss Mary Duguid, as Assistants. , The exercises commenced with an address of "welcome," by Master Wm. McCarter, followed by the song, "Sons of Freedom," by the. school. Next, at a word from the Principal, the entire school gave the names of the Books of the Old and New Testa. ments, with the authors of the latter. This was followed by recitations by the scholars in the Second Primary Department, very small children, but who displayed remark able proficiency for such young pupils. The "Spring Wishes," a dialogue by five young misses, was next on the programme and was very well rendered, eliciting much praise from the large audience. The "Les son Song," sung to the tune of "Coming thro' the Rye." bv three misses and four boys, was very prettily executed, and showed the participants to be. possessed of very good vecalistic powers, which are being properly cultivated. Four boys and four misses now named the "Seven wonders of the world," giving their location and description. "I Wish," dialogue, by five little misses and two boys, made a very pleasant impression upon the audience, and was evidently enjoyed. The geographical exercises evidenced much familiarity on the part of the school with this department of study. The "Little Girl Left at Home", was very laughably ren dered by Miss Bapler. ."The Charge of the Light Brigade" (the noble six hundred), by five boys and three girls, elicited much' praise. The "Fairy Wishes," a dialogue, was well rendered and heartily enjoyed, Miss Lena McQuigg, "Queen of. the Fairiss," being dressed en costume, with wings. A very amusing feature of - the exhibition was, the rendition of "The Young Mothers," in character, by the little Misses L. Bissinger and Annie Clowe. The School sung "Make Your Mark," and the exercises then closed with , the chanting of the Lord's Prayer by the School, which was very excellently done. . v The stage was handsomely -decorated with flowers. There was a large attendance of the friends of the pupils present, toge ther with the School Committee, and all seemed to be much pleased , with the exer cises.

Cases Before Ibe flayer, Andrew Hogans and Peter i Hogans, both colored, were arretted early yesterday morning, on the charge of larceny.'. It seems that the Messrs. Cobb, of the Purcell House, have Jbr seme time " past entertained a suspicion that their money drawer had been tampered with On Tues day night last, therefore, Mr. Howell Cobb determined :1hat :" he would '- remain up through the night, and endeavor to detect the thief. For this purpose he . concealed himself in a closet, in close proximity to tne entrance to the dining reom, and where he could have a view through an inter vening window of any person Who 'might attempt to rob the money drawer. To amuse himself while in .this position, or to help pass away the time, he smoked two or three cigars, which, the room being rather close and .very warm, had the effect to make him feel badly, and ho had to abandon the undertaking and go to bed. On Wednesday night he watch ed again, but neither saw or heard anything to arouse his suspicions. He repeated the experiment Thursday night, and,' as it hap pened, with success . It has been the habit of the Messrs. Cobb to leave Andrew Hogan in charge of the office. On this particular night, in order to perfect his plan, Mr. Howel Cobb sent Andrew with a message to No. 58, in a remote part ot the house, and during his absence he and a friend, who was to watch with him, concealed themselves. Pretty soon Andrew and Peter Hogan made their appearance, and from tbeir hiding place in the closet, which had a glass front, Mr. Cobb and his friend could watch all their movements. Several articles of chamber furniture, wrapped in paper, including a piece of Brussells carpet, were brought out into the bar and placed in a convenient place for removal. One of them also went into tho dining room, and thence into the carving room, it is supposed with the view of providing himself with such articles as might not be missed. While the one was in the dining room and the other in another part of the building, Mr. Cobb left his hiding place and proceeded to the front door, where he called a passing policeman, and also blew his whistle for others; one (Officer Everett) entered, while two others watched outside to prevent an eecape. Peter Hogan was found behind a door in the carving room, while An drew Hogan was taken near the front door, where he had rushed, ap parently very much excited, when Mr. Cobb blew his whistle. Andrew ad mitted when arrested that he stole one dol lar from the drawer tbat night, and re turned it to the junior member of the firm; but it was discovered, upon examination, tbat two dollars had been stolen. The ar ticles that had been taken from the looms were found in the places where they had been temporarily deposited. The two brothers were taken to the county jail, and placed in confinement, the guard house being in process of repair. At an early hour yesterday morning the Messrs. Cobb had a search warrant issued by Justice Hall,- and two police officers were deputized to execute it, bat nothing additional was elicited . The two Hogans were arraigned before the Mayor yesterday morning, the evidence being substantially as the above. Among the effects found upon the person of An drew Hogan was $35 in money, which in cluded a five dollar bill that bore a private mark placed upon it by Mr. Howell Cobb, and which he identified as one stolen from the hotel drawer Tuesday night. , Upon being asked if they had anything to say for themselves, Peter stated that his brother asked him to come to the hotel Thursday night; that he was hungry, and went into the dining room to get something to eat, and that was why he was found in that part of the building. The Messrs. Cobb stated that Petei? had been discharged from their employment about six months ago on the suspicion that he was a thief. Andrew made a statement to the effect that he had found the drawer open and taken money out, but had never used any means to force it open. The Hogans were ordered to enter into a justified bond in the sum of $100 each for their appearance at the approaching term of the Criminal Court, in default of which they were remanded to jail. : Andrew Hogan was classed among the "high-toned" of the colored population,was treasurer of a society, and was to have figured as groom in a "marriage ia high life" which was to have come off within a week or so. - It will be remembered that he accused one Tony Chick of stealing a sum of money from him a week or two ago.; It is sup posed that he was trying to make up the deficiency in order that his matrimonial plans should not thereby suffer disarrange ment. ?.,.'.,'--.-..: Alnmnl Aaeoelatlon.
