commencements of the most prosper

The latest business scheme, of a
decidedly original character, comes
from Chicago, where a company has
been organized with a capital of
125,000 to take the job of hanging
criminals and relieving sheriffs from
that unpleasant duty. They'll do
the choking at so much a neck and
guarantee to do it artistically and
satisfactorily to the sheriff if not to
the condemned. Chicago keeps an
eye to business.
Some scientists seem to be sent
into this world to make people feel
uncomfortable. One comes to the

real estate owners should make a
note of this.

months, which culminated in soften
ing of the brain. Dr. Ennett re
moved to this city with his family
from Pender county a few months
ago. He was a native of Onslow eoun
ty, and about fifty years of age. He
ws a gallant Confederate soldier,
serving throughout the war in
the Third North Carolina In
fantry, and at Appomattox,
as major of the regiment, was in com
mand of the brigade to which it was
attached. He was severely wounded
in the hip in one of the battles in
Virginia. At the close of the war he
studied medicine, graduated at the
Medical College in Baltimore, and
soon after entered upon the practice
of his profession In Pender county,
where he enjoyed a large practice up
to the time of his removal to this city.
Dr. Ennett leaves a wife and three
children, and his death is sincerely
mourned by hosts of friends who speak
of him in warmest terms of affection
and admiration of his noble charac
ter. He was a member of the Episco
yal Church, and his funeral is an
nounced to take place from St. Paul's
at 10 o'clock this morning.
The New Hanover Board of Health,
of which the deceased was a member,
met yesterday and adopted the following:
We, the New Hanover Board of
Health and Wilmington Medical So
ciety, in meeting assembled, having
just received the sad tidings of the
death of our esteemed friend and
brother. Dr. W. T. Ennett, desire to
put on record this testimonial of his
memory.
Always steadfast in his love to his
native State, he gave the flower of
his life to her service, receiving in
the course of that arduous duty
wounds and the impress of disease
which ended his career while he was
just in his prime.
It is especially sad to record the
Eainful episode of the final fatal
low to his. health. While on the
journey to preside over the Medical
Society of North Carolina as its chief
officer, at the meeting in Elizabeth
City, he received a burn which for
many weeks taxed his vital powers
until it culminated in death.
As a soldier, a citizen, a physician,
he filled the measure of his duty,
and we here offer this tribute of
friendship and love to his bereaved
family.
Wilmington, N. C, June 14, 1889.
"Ave Maria," sung by Mrs. Watters,
was sweetly rendered in this lady's
usual style. Master Corbett's address
to the Rt. Rev. Bishop and Master E.
Donlan's salutatory were delivered in
a faultless manner. Misses Price and
Quinli van's duett was a gem. The,
vocal solo "Let Erin Remember,"
sung by Miss G. Cox, was beautifully
and artistically rendered, showing
that this young lady has a charming
voice. The chorus "Cricket on the
Hearth," by the school, was sung with
a will, and this can be said of all the
choruses, showing the good training
of Prof. Raff. The instrumental solos
of Misses Hattie Taylor and Gene
vieve Cox were delightfully per
formed. Ths recitations of Masters
Donlan, Reilly, McGarrity and the
smaller boys were well delivered.
"A morning in China," by the
young ladies of the Academy, was
superb. Empress "Stella," by Miss
E. Weill, was a charming presenta
tion; "Tonka," by Miss D. Bear;
"Lady Chamberlain," Miss K. Wester
man; "Lady Tyrconell," by Miss A.
Green; "Madam Duchalest," Miss M.
Green; "Signora Canzoni,,' by May
O'Connor; "Lady McMountain," Miss
T. Westerman; "Madame Du Blaire,"
Miss R. Bear; "Senora Petipa," Miss
Taylor; "Liberty," Miss Maggie Price
all deserve great credit; especially
the Italian song of May O'Connor.
She has a beautiful voice, and sang
in an artistic manner. Miss Taylor's
dancing was very graceful. "Hail
Columbia" was sung in full chorus
a nappy ending to A morning in
China."
The address of the Rt. Rev. Bishop
Haid was effective and appropriate,
all feeling highly honor by his
presence.
Too much praise cannot be given
the good Sisters for the pride and de
light they take in advancing the
young, both In morals and training.
The attendance was large and all
semed well pleased with the entertainment.

A meeting of the County Board of
Health was held yesterday in the
Mayor's office at the City Hall. Vari
ous matters were discussed; among
others the ordinance issued by the
Board of Aldermen declaring that
Ailanthus trees, in private lots and
yards, must be destroyed. The Board
gave its opinion that these trees are
not detrimental to health and should
not be destroyed, and it is probable
that at the next meeting of the Board
of Aldermen the ordinance will be rescinded.
Another matter discussed was city
sanitation, and it was ordered that
lot owners in the neighborhood of
Purcell alley and Burr & Bailey's
alley, whose closets have been con
demned, shall be directed to have
pipes laid to connect with the sewers
in those alleys.
The manager of the Moan

Found Drowned.
The body of a colored woman, ap
parently about middle-age, was found
yesterday morning in a small creek
near Col. Roger Moore's brickyard,
about four miles from the city. The
body was discovered floating in the
stream by two colored women, who
gave information of the ghastly find
to Mr. Miller, foreman at the brick
yard, who at onee notified Coro
oner Jacobs. The Coroner sum
moned a jury and held an inquest
over the remains at the place where
they were found. The body had been
in the water some time, apparently.
John Jones, a colored man living in
the neighborhood, testified that he
saw a woman passing through the
brick yard about 7 o'clock last Sun
day afternoon. The woman was a
stranger, and he inquired her name,
which she said was Sarah. She ask
ed the way to Market street and he
directed her and she left.
Robert Willey, a colored boy, testi
fied that he met a woman that looked
like deceased about 9 o'clock Saturday
morning last, near the Poor House.
She told him her name was Nancy
Foy, and asked Robert if he knew
Aunt Betsey Nixon, and upon his
telling her that he did, asked him to
tell Betsey to come to the Poor House
and take her away. There were no
other persons present who could
give information as to the deceased,
and the jury, upon the foregoing tes
timony rendered a verdict that the
woman, supposed to be Abbie Foy, or

The excursionists from Mount Airy
and other places along the line of the
Cape Fear & Vadkin Valley railroad,
left for home yesterday afternoon at
5 o'clock. From all accounts they
hadj a "fine time'3 while here aad
many expressed themselves as de
lighted with the trip. A great many
of the visitors went down to Carolina
Beach yesterday, returning on the
Sylvan Grove at 2 o'clock. They
one and all, throughout their
stay here, conducted themselves
in a quiet, gentlemanly manner, and
made a good impression on every
body. Although there were about
five hundred here, there was no
drunkenness, no rowdyism, and if
there was any disturbance anywhere
in the city during their stay, we have
yet to hear of it. It was, as a friend
says, "a bulging big crowd," and all
of them spent money with our Wil
mington merchants. Their visit has
given great satisfaction, the Stab is
pleased to learn, both to the visitors
and our citizens, and the former are
so well pleased that they intend to
come again in August next.
