Deems son fif VOL. XL. NO. 109. Rev. Dr. Gharles P. Deems, for divorce from his wife, Grace BroUterton, was dis missed in the Court of Common Pleas be fore Judge Allen yesterday by consent: Since the failure of the suit brought by Mrs. Deems against her husband last June, it is said that the lady has expressed con trition and a sincere ..desire for reconcilia tion and has,: placed herself under treat ment for, the. opium habit to attain that end." Many outrages are reported as oo corringln Iowa and Kansas. It is said that blackmailing is resorted to in some instances. The prohibitory law is the cover under which these gross outrages are perpetrated. Some of the most offensive instances are given editorially in . the N. Y. Star. We copy: 'One is that of a lady of Dea Moines. who when sick and with a day old babe in ner arms, was turned out of her bed and her premises sacked by two constables named Pierce and Potts, who were search ing for liqupr. The second instance of brutality under cover of law is that of An dreas Druer of the same city, whose home was broken into and his wife grossly mal treated by ruffians armed with authority to search for liquor. The husband resisting this misconduct, he was so brutally beaten that he has remained ever since a helpless invaua. uunng last aiarcn, wane tne sacrament was being administered at a Methodist Episcopal Church, a prohibition fanatic seized the vessel used in the sacred rite. In the city of Des Moines searches are made at the rate of 100 per month, and in Pope county, during the year 1886, there were granted by magistrates no less than 4,000 search Warrants, of which about 330 were directed- against private dwell ings " A mastodon has been found in Hala county, Ala. It ia well pre served: "One piece, which is supposed to be the upper bone of a hind leg, is 36 Inches long, 37 inches in circumference at the top and 21 in the middle, and 23 at the lower end, and weighs 67 pounds One of the jaws mt-asure8 21 inches in width and has two sockets for tuks G inches in diameter. A fragment of one of the tusks is 25 inches long and 15 inches in circumferenoe. The jaw tooth consists of four pairs of promi nences ranged in two rows ana an joined in one tolia piece, tne top or wnicn is enamel of the color of tortoise shell. The prominences are worn as if from Ion use. The tooth weighs five pounds . A segment it me Dacaoono is 20 incites in circum ference." A writer in the N. Y. World insists that the correct orthography is cigar and not ?gar, and he makes atrong case. He says: "To begin with, this (segar) is not sane lioned by any dictionary ever published, and is followed by no daily paper. In the second plsca it does not repnsant the pro nunciation, which is correctly given, ac cording to English orthography, only in the spelling "cigar. We do not say see gar, but the "i" in the 3rt syllable is short, precisely H9 in cinder. A third objection to this idiotic spelling. segar," is that it disguises the derivation of the word, which is from the tspanieb "cigarro. pronouncea by SpaniHb-Americans si-gar-ro.

Charlotte Chronicle: Earnest Barringer, colored, was buried in Pine wood cemetery, last Sunday afternoon and his funeral was attended by a large crowd of colored people. Among the crowd were Thomas Plummer. Wm. Plummer and Gibson Kimmoa?, who were at enmity with each, other, and on the way home from the funeral, as they reached Cicero Smith's house, in the Greenville suburbs, they proceeded to fight it out after the modern style with their pistols. As Smith advanced upon him. Plummer drew his pistol and commenced firing, but Smith ran into him and grappled with him. Eimmons, who was in Smith's house, se cured Smith's pistol and running out to where the two men were scuffling, he pre sented the muzzle at Plummer's body and fired a shot that put an end to tbe proceed ings. The bullet entered Plummer's left side, making a painful wound Last Sunday closed the first year's pastorate of Rev J. Y. Fair, at the Second Presbyterian church in this city. Mr. Fair has preached 135 sermons and conducted 70 prayer meetings, making a total public ser vice of 204. He has administered 48 bap tisms, attended 16 funerals and made 502 pastoral visits.

The excursionists from Wilson and other points along the line of the Wilmington & Weldon Railroad south of that place arrived here yesterday morning about half-past 11 o'elock on a special train, consisting of five passenger coaches and a refreshment car. The party numbered about three hundred and fifty. Probably one-, third of the entire number are from Wilson, with representatives from Toisnot, Enfield, Mount Olive, War saw, and other places. The Fairview Cornet Band and the Wilson Base BalLClub came with the excursion ists; the band enlivening the trip with music.; Its members are W. C. Hewlett, C. J. Warren, Thos. Hayes, W. B. Alley, D. E. Winstead, Ed. Hawkins, K L. Alley, Joe Barnes, S. M. Warren, J. O. Gordon, and G. Winstead. .There is quite a large number of ladies among the excur sionists. Oar streets were thronged with the visitors during the . forenoon. They gathered on the water front and vis ited all the places of interest in and around the citv. In the afternoon many went down to Carolina Beach, the Passport being crowded; others went down to Wrightsville Sound, and the remasnder sought the base ball grounds: so that by. 4 p. m. scarcely a stranerer was to be seen upon the streets. ,:: The visitors evidently had a pleas ant time yesterday, and we trust that nothing may occur to mar- their full eniovment of the. trip.

The perverseness of the wea ther yesterdayrobbed our visitors of much of the pleasure they would otherwise have had. Registration proceeds slowly. The registrars are getting tired of idly waiting for the electors to come forward and qualify. : Not the least of the attractions yesterday was Professor G. Wright's brass band of forty pieces; or rather, one piece that was played forty times. Messrs. Alex Sprunt & Son cleared the Norwegian' barque Ca- pella yesterday for Antwerp with 1,689 casks spirits turpentine, valued at $25,000. The maohinery and boiler of the steamer Susie, burned some time ago while lying at ner wharf at Point Caswell, have been raised and brought to the city. The Lawn Party for the benefit of the Cornet Concert Club, will be given to-night, at the City Hall Park. The unfavorable weather last night caused the postponement. Mr. George P. Lamb, the well known florist, of this city, died last evening after a protracted illness. He was a man of kindly feelings, and the announcement of his death will be received with sincere regret. Quite a number of the excur sionists called at the Star office and showed their appreciation of the Star, not only in words but in other ways which delighed the heart of tbe young man "in receipt of customs." A colored man reported at tbe Court House yesterday that his horse fell dead in the county road at Jump ing Run. a short distance beyond the city limits. He said that he was unable to have the horse moved out of the road himself and wanted tbe county authorities to do it. The death of Mrs. Edwin E. Burrus, which occurred yesterday morning, was a great shock to her numerous relatives and friends; and coming so soon after the death of her lamented husband, it is inex pressibly sad. She was a daughter of the late Isaac Northrop, and was greatly beloved by all who knew her. She will be sadly missed, and by none to much as by the four little orphans who survjve her. Mayor's Co art. Frank Sadgwar, alias Frank Sidbu- ry, the colored boy charged with the larceny of a silver watch, a pocket book and other articles from Jane McFarland, colored, and arrested by Policeman Everitt Tuesday night (as reported in the Star) was arraigned before Mayor Fowler yesterday morn ing. The evidence was conclusive as to the guilt of the prisoner, and in default of $100 .bail for his appear ance at the next term of the Criminal Court, Sadgwar was sent to jail. Robert Green, colored.charged with disorderly conduct was discharged, under a suspension of judgment. The case of D. Littleton, (charged with disorderly conduct) which was continued from Tuesday, was con tinued indefinitely by the Mayor, on account of the sickness of the de- fendant. Zeph Sanders and George Sanders, both colored, charged with disorderly Conduct and continued from Tuesday came up for trial. Mr. E. B. Sanders appeared for the defendants. Upon hearing the testimony they were dis charged. Coronar'a Inquest; Coroner Miller held an inquest yes terday morning over the body of Lucy Williams, a colored woman, who dropped dead the evening be fore in the road near Melton's butcher pen just beyond the city limits.- The jury rendered a verdict that the cause of death was neuralgia of the heart. Dr. Potter, city physician, was present at the inquest, but did not consider it necessary to make a post mortem examination. The wo man's husband, Emanuel Williams, said that his wife had been unwell for some time. In company with two of her children she was on her way to town with a cart-load of mel ons, and a few moments before the fatal stroke got out of the . cart to walk. After the inquest was held the husband of the deceased had the remains of his wife taken to his home about four miles from the city for burial. V. 8. commissioner's Conru Messrs. Kerr and Hubbard, owner and master of the steamer Delta, which was blown up by the explosion of the boiler several weeks ago, were in the city yesterday. The case against them for violation of the TJ. S. steam boat inspection laws will be heard to day before TJ. ST Commissioner Gard ner.' District: Attorney, Busbee Is ex pected to conduct the examination. JULY 28, 1887. . HA8E UAL,I. rilmJncton vs. vllson Gam called on Aeeaast of Haln. The heavens did not smile on' the Knights of the Diamond" yesterday, but on the contrary shed tears, for it was raining slightly when the game commenced and continued-to increase until the umpire decided it was best to call the game. - The play was well attended; all anxious to see the friendly contest between two clubs so evenly match ed. The grounds were in a most un favorable condition to play ball, and the boys were fully cognizant of this fact. Errors were made on both sides which otherwise would have - been inexcusable. The Wilmington boys first went to the bat, and scored two runs, and the Wilson boys only made one round. - Our boys again went to the bat and were retired in good order, alter having succeeded in placing three goose eggs" to their credit. The Wilson boys then, in their turn, scored twice, and the game at the end of the second inning stood Wilson 3, Wilmington 2. At the commencement of the third inning, while the Wilmington boys were putting in some good work. tiaviug made two runs, it began to rain, so that the umpire was obliged to call the game. Therefore the last two runs of the Wilmington club did not count, as Wilson had no chance of going to the bat. There were no special features du ring the two innings except the two- bagger of Moore and the foul catch of Woodward, of the Wilsons, who was put behind the bat, the regular catcher, Casey, having been hurt. Bacon did extremely well and La- touche did also. The ruliugs of Mr. Kiley were ex cellent and gave entire satisfaction. This afternoon there will be another game and all thos who attend will be folly repaid for their trouble, for everything will be done to make the game interesting. Personal. Col. W. E. Hill, of Faison, is in the city. Col. S. B. Taylor, of Catherine Lake, is in the city. Ex-Judge Russell left for New York Tuesday night, and will be absent about two weeks. "Uncle Ned" Glavin, the noted car- finder of the Atlantic Coast Line, reg istered at the Purcell House yester day. Mr. Donald McRae has reached Lincolnton, in his "swing around the circle," and is much improved in health. Mr. J. J. McCartney, of the Execu tive Board K. of L. of the United States, is here on business connected with the order. Lieut. Gov. Stedman and family have gone to Cleveland Springs for a short stay, after which they will visit Asheville and other points in the Switzerland of America. Mr. W. H. Beatty, formerly with Mr. J. R. Turrentine, left last night to locate in Omaha. Mr. Beatty is a young man of great energy and leaves behind many friends who wish him every success. Capt, John Barry has been appoint ed Superintendent of the railroad running from Bishopville to Atkins, S. C. The people of Wilmington will regret to part with Capt. John, who fe a most excellent citizen. He has been connected with the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad, as road-master, for three-score years, and has always ranked among its most trusted em ployes. Mr. John I). Williams, of Fayette ville, is here and will probably cpend some days in the city and yicinity. Mr. Williams is a leading and influential member of the Cape Fear and Yadkin Valley Syndicate, and as he will visit Southport before his return, it is surmised that it may be with a view to determining the advantages of that place as a seaport terminus. The Maxton Union speaks as fol lows of a prominent minister of this city: "On last Thursday night Rev. D. H. Tuttle, of Wilmington, N. C, filled the Methodist pulpit here, to the delight and edification of all pres ent. His sermon was a soul-stirring effort and showed that it came forth from an eminently pious nature, one whose mind was stored with great scriptural research, for one of his age, and one upon whom great natural powers have been poured out." mistaken Identity. Deputy Sheriff Barnes, of Wilson, arrived In the city yesterday. He visited the jail in company with seve ral other gentlemen of that place for the purpose of seeing if they could identify Orange Wooten, the colored man arrested last Monday, as an es caped murderer Csasar Wooten from Wilson county. , As soon as they saw the man they said that he was not the murderer. Orange Wooten was thereupon discharged. As stated In the Star Wooten was arrested on an avffiadvit made by a colored man from MtlOltre. He'saya that he will sue some one for false imprisonment.

The first of the West Indian cyclones incident to the latter part of summer made its appearance on the Gulf coast yesterday. It was central in the vicinity of Pensacola at 3 p. m., when the barometer recorded 29.70. From this point it moved in a direc tion a little east of north, and by 10 p. m. it was central at Montgomery, Ala., with the atmospheric pressure measuring 29158 inches the lowest n its short passage. The Signal Service furnished a map last night showing the location and probable course of the storm. From, it we should conclude that the centre of the storm will strike this State in the extreme western Dart, and if it does not deviate from its present course it is not probable that its se verest effects will be felt in this sec tion. The highest wind reported from the immediate vicinity of the storm thus far reached, was thirty-two miles an hour. The rainfall, how ever, is unusually heavy. The Signal Service reports show nearly three inches at some points during the seven hours preceding 10 p. m., and our Press dispatches show a fall at some places of nearly six inches. The following telegram was re ceived relative to the cyclone at the Signal Office last evening: WASHIXGTOX, D. C, July 27, 4:50 P. M. Hoist cautionary signal.

The well known mercantile firm of Bridgers & Rankin, of this city, have purchased the line of railroad in Sumter county, 8. C, running from Atkins to Bishopville, S. C, a dis tance of fifteen miles. It connects with tbe Wilmington, Columbia it Augusta Railroad at Atkins, and passes through one of the richest cot ton producing sections In South Car olina. It is estimated that during the coming season it will transport from 5,000 to 7,000 bales of cotton. The road is the exclusive property of the firm and solely under their man agement and control. Mr. P. L. Bridgers is president and treasurer, Capt. John Barry general superin tendent, and Mr. N. B. Rankin freight and passenger agent and auditor. Messrs. Bridgers & Rankin propose to extend the road, if concessions as to right of way are made. The firm have also bought the saw mill at Atkins, and the stock of mer chandise of the company formerly operating the mill and the railroad." On Vacation. Yesterday's Charlotte Chronicle says: Capt. Harry P. Johnston, one of the most popular conductors of the Carolina Central road, has secured a flannel toutflt at the haberdasher's and put out for Smithvllle with the ex pectation of spending a few days with the pilots on the ooean.
