N. 0., WEDNESDAY,
ftteeptlon by tne Cape Fear Club. .
The Cape Fear Club gave a most
charming reception last night at
their new club house, to their lady
friends and the officers of the French
frigate Ze Bisson., The officers of the
revenue steame,r Colfax were also
present.
The olub put their best foot fore
most and every thing that pertained
to the enjoyment of the evening was
done in befitting style. The hand
some rooms were brilliant with light,
and the gay concourse of ladies and
gentlemen which thronged the rooms
throughout the evening, seemingly
enjoyed the entertainment to the
fullest extent. An elegant supper
was provided which the guests
did full justice to, and the band
of harpers furnished music which
kept the dancers on the floor until a
late hour.
The affair was a brilliant success
and such as reflected credit on the
committees entrusted with the deli
cate duty of entertaining the visitors.
The Cape Fear Club is an old es
tablished institution here, and its
reputation for open-handed hospi
tality has never been more signally
emphasized than by its last night's
entertainment. We congratulate the
town upon having such a place, and
we feel that with the new and con
stantly increasing membership many
other occasions of enjoyment are in
8 tore for those who may visit our
"City by the Sea."

Th6 trustees of the building fund
of the Young Men's Christian Associa

Pearsall, W. H. Riach, Wm. Latimer,
Wm. A French and H. M. Bowden,
in view of the purchase of the build
ing site which has been made by the
Association, have decided to call
upon the subscribers to the fund for
a pro-rata payment of 25 per cent, in
order to pay for the same. The fol
lowing call has been issued :
To the subscribers of the building
fund of the T. M. C. A.:
The board of trustees of the build
ing fund of the Y. M. C. Association,
in order to raise the money to pay for
the lot purchased for the erection of
the building, and in accordance with
the trust reposed in them to collect
and disburse the fund, have decided
to make a pro-rata assessment of
25 per cent, upon the subscriptions.
It is understood that those
who cannot pay this amount in one
installment are not obligated to do
so, but compliance with this call will
greatly facilitate the work of the
board. It is likewise understood that
this board will gladly receive larger
payments, or payments in full, from
those subscribers who are able and
willing to make such payments.
Mr. H. M. Bowden having been
elected treasurer of this board, is au
thorized to receipt for moneys paid
on subscriptions, and, if such pay
ments are not made direct to
him, as this board for great con
venience would urge, he will desig
nate in writing reliable persons to
call upon subscribers for the pro rata
assessment now made.

A Policeman's Club.
Policeman Hall's little club got in
some wild work yesterday on the head
of Mr. C. J. Stuckey, a farmer from
the Black river section of Pender
county. The trouble took place in
Mr. Croom's store, on the northeast
corner Of Princess and Water streets.
Mr. Stuckey was felled with a blow
on the head the club cutting a ter
rible gash, from which the blood
flowed profusely and while partially
insensible from the effects of the
blow was placed on a dray and taken
to the City Hall, where, after his
wound had been attended to by a
physician, he was looked up. It is al
leged that the policeman used his
club without provocation. The mat
ter, however, will be investigated by
the Mayor this morning, and a num
ber of persons who witnessed the
affair have been cited to appear.
Tne Carina- Affair.
Information received direct from
Carthage shows that Miss Ida Poe
who was shot by Robert McNeill,
Saturday night, is not so seriously
wounded as was first reported. The
ball made only a flesh wound, and
although it, has not yet been ex
tracted, no serious fears are earter
tained as to Miss Poe ultimate re
covery. The villain who attempted
to assassinate her had not been ap
prehended, though itia hoped he
will be found. Robert McNeill is a
son of Mr. A . S. McNeill, for many
years Clerk of the Superior Court of
Moore county and ' a gentleman of
