A young man in New York the
other day'applied for a divorce from
his wife, because his mother-in-law
persisted in brushing his wife's
poodle with his hair brush. He said
he could stand the dog or the moth
er-in-law but the combination of dog
and mother-in-law got away with him
entirely and robbed life of its charms.
The only fault he had to find with
his wife was that she sided with the
dog and the mother-in-law combina
tion. The unsympathetic judge
couldn't see it and suggested as a
substitute for the divorce that he
and his wife (he was non-committa
on the dog and mother-in-law com
bination), ought to be well spanked
Stanley who is now having such a
royal time in Brussels, is going to
become a British subject again. He
started life as a British subject hav
ing been born in Wales, in a poor
house, it is said. This is not to his
discredit. It was an accident as far
as he was concerned, but the world
wide fame which he has won in turn
ing the light on to the Dark Conti
n,ent was not an accident. That was
won by bravery,pluck and pertinacity
unparelleled.
A Pike county, Ky., correspond
ent of the Louisville Courier-Journal
says the reported murders in that
county are the inventions of an un

We are glad'of this, for Kentucky is
one of the States that we don't want
to see exterminated.
A court in Detroit, Michigan, a
few days ago decided against a negro
who sued for damages because he
was refused a meal at a restaurant,
on the ground that a restaurant is
not a public inn. It may be re
marked that Detroit is not a South
ern town.
The Japanese government don't
believe in duelling. It not only pun
ishes duellist, but all innny way con
nected with a duel, and provides spe
cial punishment for those who de
fame a man who refuses to fight a
duel. Japan is not a Christian ooun
trv, either.
A syndicate has obtained control
of a number of refrigerating patents
in this country and propose to in

were trying to close on John Sher

cer, at Moscow, the other day, and
her five daughters, on account ot ex

in a room, turned on the gas, and
died from voluntary suffocation.
Senator Edmunds should not fail
to present the claims and profits of

The Fayetteville Independent .Light In
fantry "Withdraw from the State Guard.
The Fayetteville Independent Light
Infantry, at a full meeting of members
of the company, both active and retired,
held last Monday night, adopted a reso
lution to withdraw from the State Guard,
and have notified Gov. Fowle, who it is
understood will acquiesce in this action
of the company.
The Fayetteville company will form
an independent battalion, the officers
holding their commissions as hereto
fore and being subject to the orders of
the Governor of the State. The tnem-
bers will retain their arms and equip-
mentsJwhich are furnished by the State.
The chief reason for this withdrawal
of the F. I. L. I. from the Guard, is the
order issued some time ago requiring all
the companies of the Guard to comply
with the State regulation and wear blue
uniforms instead of the gray.
The Fayetteville Independent Light
Infantry is the oldest military organiza
tion in the United States, but one. It
served in the war of 1812, and in the
war between the States, and the "Con
federate gray" that uniformed the sol
dier boys of the South was baptized in
the life-blood of many of its members.
Every old veteran in the land will take
off his hat to the F. I. L. I. for its deter
mination to stick to the gray.
The present officers of the company
are
Major J. A. McLaughlin.
First Captain J. B. Broadfoot.
Second Captain J. C. Vann.
Third Captain J. C. Huske.

present.

on the Battle of Sharpsburg were read,
and listened to with much interest by
all present.
On motion of Maj. C. M. Stedman, it

ed in the daily papers of Wilmington.

United States Benevolent Fraternity.
The eighth annual meeting of the
United States Benevolent Fraternity,
Hanover Council No. 25, was celebrated
by a sociable at the Pythian Hall last
night.
The speakers' stand was tastefully de
corated with flowers, and the programme
was an enjoyable one.
Music was furnished by the Presby
terian choir, consisting of Mr. C. H. Rob
inson, Misses Schwarz and Wood and
Mr. Herbert Holden, and by another
quartette composed of Misses L. Cut
lar, Gabrielle DeRosset and Messrs.
Horace Emerson and A, G. Holden.
All the renditions were admirable and
it was a treat to hear the different voices
blending so sweetly.
The invocation was delivered by Acting
Chaplain N. Jacobi, and then Mr. D.
H. Walsh, presiding officer, delivered
an appropriate speech of welcome. Af
ter which Companion Tas. F, Post, Jr.,
in a few choice words introduced Rev.
Dr. S. Mendelsohn who made an ad
dress which for good common sense and
logical reasoning could not fail to com
mend itself to all present. He spoke of
the aims of the order and benefits which
accrued to its members, and did it in a
most interesting manner.
A nice collation was prepared and it
was enjoyed thoroughly and every one
who was present passed the time most
