A Republican contemporary sav the Republican Senators should shape their rules after the style of the back woods doctor, who when .he had a doubtful case "always threw his patient into fits" and then treated him for fits. They ought to be satis fied with throwing the country into fits, which they have been doing pretty successfully. The back woods doctor always brought his patient out of the fits, a service which the Republican Senators don't see fit to render their suffering country. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

At a point near "Foster's Station" on the Ocean View Railroad, the organiza tion in Wilmington, bearing the above name, have erected a building for those unfortunate poor who have been sick and have become convalescent. The name given to the building is, "The Shelter of the Silver Cross," as that is the badge adopted by the order. The organization is entirely unsectarian, and the work is supported by the King's Daughters, and by voluntary contribu tions of public spirited and benevolent hearted Christian people. The "Shel ter" faces the ocean, on a line wih the other buildings on the beach. Entering the front or ocean end of the building, the first room to the right is a memo rial room, furnished throughout by Mrs. Liebman as a memorial of her deceased son. The dimensions are 15 by 15 feet In rear of this is a sleeping room 10 by 15 feet, and the next is the dining room 15 by 15. Next in rear ot the dining room is the pantry, 8 feet square, and then the kitchen, 12 feet square. The main hall is 10 feet wide, and 40 feet long. On the opposite, or westerly side of the building the first is the matron's room, the next the dormi tory, bath and servant's room. All the rooms will be thoroughly furnished with every necessity and comfort for the convalescent, who may avail themselves of the comforts and blessings of the in stitution, which is especially designed j for the benefit of the children of the poorer class who cannot afford the ex pense attendant upon the ordinary needs of children who have been sick but are getting better and need a change of air, diet and atmosphere. To such this is, indeed, a most munificent bene faction. The officers of the "King's Daughters" in Wilmington are as follows: President Mrs. J. W. Murchison. Secretary and Treasurer Mrs. C. H. King. Mrs. Fannie Hayes has been selected for the position of matron of the "Shel ter," and she is a lady eminently quali fied for the onerous duties of the posi tion. The reporter is under deep obligations to the secretary and treasurer for valua ble information regarding the institution and its work. The building will be completed, dedi cated and ready for occupancy next Fri day and the public generally and espe cially all circles of the "King's Daugh ters" in the city, are invited to be pres ent. The dedicatory services will take place in the afternoon. Persons wishing to give donations for this commendable charity are requested to send all light articles to Mrs. Jewett's store on Princess street, while heavy ar ticles, such as furniture, etc., may be sent to Mr. W. A. Dick, at the Princess street depot of the Seacoast railroad. A. Cutting Affray.

The men are brothers-in-aw, having married sisters. They were each required to give bond in the sum of fifty dollars for their appearance at the Criminal Court. A Lively Sunday Morning. The police had a lively time of it early Sunday morning. They made twenty-two arrests between 2 and 6 o'clock. Besides several cases booked as "disorderly con duct," there was a "cutting scrape," in which two white men were concerned, and a "shooting frolic" among negroes; one of the crowd getting a pistol ball in his back.

A Colored "Wan Wounded in a Row at a Disreputable House. Dave Hawkins, a colored man well known in police circles, was shot and severely wounded last Sunday morning between one and two o clock, at a house in Wallace's Alley near Red Cross and Fourth streets. He reported the matter at the City Hall, shortly afterwards, and said that he had been fired at three times, from an up-stairs window in the house. One of the balls struck him on the lelt shoulder, ranged downwards and was found under the skin on his back and extracted by the physician called to attend him. Police Sergeant Flanagan with officers Smith and White, at once made a raid on the house and arrested all the in mates, colored men and women, and locked them up in the city prison Charley Burnett, John Faison, Carrie Boston, Annie Smith, Sophia Young and Louisia Sheets. Shortly afterwards, upon information given by Hawkins, the wounded man. the same officers captured Thad. Hurst and John Harris, colored men, who were at the house when the firing occurred. One of these men, after being taken into custody by the officers, threw something over a fence into a lot on the corner of Fourth and Chesnut streets, which the officers recovered and found to be a pistol of large calibre a"hd( a razor. These prisoners were also locked up at headquarters. Investigation of the case will probably take place at 10 o'clock this morning, if Hawkins is able to attend the Mayor's Court.

Sunday in Camp A Quiet Day Re ligious Services Inspection Ar rival of CoL Martin, of the Fourth Rifle Practice General Orders, Etc. The day in camp at Wrightsville, Sunday, was remarkably quiet and or derly. In the forenoon there were religious services at the pavilion, con ducted by Rev. Dr. Carmicheal, chap lain of the Second Regiment. His sub ject was "Courage," and was entirely appropriate to the occasion, and was highly appreciated by his listeners. In the afternoon the gospel service held in the pavilion was conducted by Mr. L. A. Coulter, of the Y. M. C. A., and at night services were conducted by Quartermaster Sergeant W. N. Prather, of the Fourth Regiment, which was largely attended, notwithstanding the rain, which fell in torrents at the time. The music was good at all the services, and especially so at the night meeting. The regular Sunday inspection was held at G o'clock that evening, and was highly satisfactory, the condition of the men as well as the camp betokening strict attention and care. This, with the dress parade, closed the military exer cises for the day, further than some in teresting exercises in marching, wheel ing and other evolutions some of which were quite novel and interesting by the Fourth Regiment band, whose move ments were admirable and excited much favorable comment. Col. J. G. Martin, of the Fourth Regi ment, who has unavoidably been de tained at home, but whose position has been admirably filled by Ma. Young, ar- in camp Sunday night and was joyously greeted by his command. He is justly very popular with both the men and the officers of the regiment and is indeed a favorite with the entire State Guard. He was without uniform and consequently did not take command, contenting him self(with receiving the congratulations of his friends and looking around and ad miring the arrangements of the camp Yesterday morning both regiments went to the battery to indulge in rifle practice and to see the manner of han dling guns as exemplified by Sergeant Helcher and the detachment of United States soldiers under his command, Both the drill with the siege guns and the rifle practice showed a marked im provement over former efforts, and were quite satisfactory to all concerned. Major Young, who nas been in com mand of the Fourth Regiment, went home last night and Colonel Martin took command. Both of these officers are very much beloved by their men. Just before dress parade Colonel Jones, of the Second Regiment, with his staff and the line officers, preceded by the band, marched in a body to the headquarters of the Fourth Regi ment and paid their respects to Colonel Martin, of the Fourth Regiment, after which the Second Regiment held their dress parade, at which the following general orders were published to the men: Headquarters N. C. State Guard, Camp Latimer, Aug. 11, 1890. General Order No. 14. The Governor and Commander-in-Chief desires to express to the State Guard who attended the encapment at Camp Latimer during the months of ulv and August 1890, his high appre ciation of their soldierly conduct while in camp. Their improvement in drill and dis cipline, the superiority of their appear ance, now that all are clothed in their country's uniform, the prompt obedience to orders, and the cheerful acquiescence in all measures of a sanitary character, have made the regimental encampment of 1890 memorable in the history of the State. Officers, non-commissioned offi cers and privates of the North Carolina State Guard, your State has just reason to be proud of your conduct! To the officers of the General Staff, each in his own department, is to be at tributed special praise for the energy, capacity and faithfulness with which their manifold duties have been per formed. The presence of that accomplished officer, Capt. S. G. Blunt, of the Ord nance Department, U. S. Army, has been highly appreciated, whilst the non commissioned officers and privates de tailed by the .Government for our as sistance and instruction in the battery, have added greatly to the interest of the occasion. To the citizens of Wilmington and vicinity the Commander-in-Chief is but voicing the wishes of the whole com mand when he tenders the thanks of the entire Guard for their many courtesies; while special thanks are due to the General Secretary and officers of the Young Men's Christian Association for their kindness and courtesy, as well as the efforts made by them for the comfort and welfare of the Guard, which have been highly appreciated. Thanks are also due to the officers of the railroad company for their kindness in transporting the troops without ex pense to the State. (Signed) Daniel G. Fowle, Gov. and Commander-in-Chief. H'dquarters 2d Reg't, N. C. S. G. August 11th, 1890. General Orders No. 6. It is the desire of the commander of the Second Regiment to express his high appreciation of the faithful services rendered by the staff, officers, non-commissioned officers and men of his com mand during the present encampment. Their ready and cheerful obedience to all orders, their prompt observance of the hours of service, their earnest desire to perform well the duties imposed upon them, would reflect credit upon any troops in the world, and our worthy commander-in-chief and the cftizens of their respective sections should be proud of and encourage in every possible way the fine companies composing the com mand, who always hold themselves in readiness to answer any call made upon them by country, State or county. W. C. Jones, Col. Com'd'g Second Reg't N. C. S. G. At the dress parade of the Fourth Regiment, held immediately after the dismissal of the Second Regiment, the following special order was published: Hdqrs. Fourth Regiment, N. C. S. G., Camp Latimer, Aug. 11, 1890. Special Order No. 4. Commanders of Companies will see that all State property held by them is turned oyer to Captain Younts, Quarter master ot the Fourth Regiment, and will have their men in marching order, and baggage ready to break camp at G o'clock on the morning of the 12th inst. Companies K, B and D will be under the command of Captain Holland; Com panies A, F, G, C, and the Regimental Band will be under the command of Captain Armfield, while en route. Com manders of detachments will see that sentinels are placed at the car doors and good order observed, and report as soon as possible to the commanding officer, of the safe return of their detachments. The Lieut. Colonel commanding de sires to express his gratification to the command for their good order, soldierly bearing and gentlemanly deportment "while in camp, and to assure them that the standing of the Fourth Regiment has been well maintained by them. The command of the Fourth Regi ment is hereby placed in the hands of Maj. Young until further orders, and all communications will be addressed to him, at his headquarters at Charlotte, N. C. By order of J. G. Martin, Lieut. Col. Commanding. E. S. Keesler, First Lieut, and Adjutant. IN AND AROUND CAMP. , Good-bye to the soldiers! There was no case of sickness re ported yesterday morning. The military will leave Wrights ville at about 7 o'clock this morning. It rained about as hard at Camp Latimer Sunday night as it did in Wil mington. The men were busy yesterday in packing up, preparatory to an early start for home tbis morning. The number of visitors at Island Beach hotel this season has been much larger than in any previous year. The Second Regiment band fur nished the music for both parades last night, and it was mighty good music, too. The "ambulance corps" failed to reap a rich harvest yesterday forenoon, but succeeded somewhat better in the afternoon. The reporter desiresto express his thanks to all the officers and men of the Encampment for the many courtesies he has received at their hands. The weather yesterdey in camp was delightful, and the soldiers were hoping that it would continue as good, so they could have pleasant weather in which to go home. First Sergeant Walker Taylor, of Company C (Wilmington Light Infan try), made a score of 21 out ot a possible 25 at the rifle practice yesterday morn ing. Good! The Second Regiment band were sadly disappointed yesterday, as they intended to take a flying trip to Carolina Beach, but could not get permission to leave camp. I A regimental court martial has been, in session nearly every day since the be ginning of the encampment, for the punishment.of those accused of viola ting military orders. - ; It will take thirteen cars to transport the troops from Wrightsville to their homes; nine from the Atlantic Coast Line, three from the Carolina Central and one from the C. F. & Y. V. road. The Fourth Regiment Band left camp yesterday for home; arriving in the city, they remained here during the day, taking their departure yesterday evening. A good band and worthy gen tlemen. Captain W. A. Johnson, of the Sampson, Light Infantry, is the young est officer in date of commission in Camp Latimer, but in point of drill and TAR. WHOLE NO. 7.446 discipline he "gets there" with the best of them. A good many of the members of the Second Regiment are so delighted with camp life and the military duties inci dent thereto, that they want to prolong the encampment until the first of Sep tember. Uniforms and muskets will be scarce at Wrightsville to-day, and the girls in different parts of the State who have friends in either regiment will begin to wait anxiously for the time "when John nie comes marching home!" The police regulations of the camp have been superb from the beginning, and all the company streets, in both re giments, are rakedevery morning and every particle of offensive matter is cleared off, until they look as clean and neat as a tidy swept sidewalk. The Fourth Regiment band is an organization of which the State may well be proud, and besides all that, it is composed of a fine lot of men. When the time came for departure, the en campment, almost to a man, turned out aud cheered them lustily until they had gotten out -of sight It was pleasant in deed to see the respect manifested for them and the kindly fraternal feeling displayed. The Star reporter is under obligations to them for many attentions and courtesies. GRACE M. E. CHURCH. Liberal Contributions for the Extinguish ment of the Church Building Debt. Last Sabbath was a grand and high day for Grace Methodist Church of this city and its congregation. In the morn ing, after a very impressive sermon by the pastor, Rev. Dr. Creasy, an appeal was made to the congregation for the liquidation or payment of the church building debt. Almost immediately res ponses were made by several individuals to give two hundred dollars each and other pledges for different sums until over fifty-four hundred dollars was sub scribed or paid in, causing the remark from one present that it was the "giv inest" congregation he had ever seen, and others said they had never witnessed anything like it before. It seemed as though the people would never stop giving, and sometimes there would be three or four persons standing up for the purpose of announcing their sub scriptions at the same time. One of two Chinamen present paid five dollars in cash. A gentleman from Greensboro not only subscribed for himself, but af terwards subscribed one hundred dol lars for Greensboro Female College. A gentleman, not a member of the church, gave the liberal sum of two, hundred and fifty dollars, notwithstanding he had given liberally before. Persons not only gave themselves, but would subscribe upon the memorial list in the names of Doctors Yates, Mann and other former pastors, and in the names of deceased members of the church or relatives; such as W. M. Parker, C. L. Graffin, W. J. Yopp, and others. That sainted mother in Israel, Mrs. Catherine G. Kennedy, was also remembered; one of her old Sunday School scholars made a subscription in her name, and another increased the amount and still another made the subscription still larger. Members of the Church and congregation'who were not present yesterday, some of whom are absent from the city, will increase the amount subscribed. The pastor and people-are rejoicing. The storm at night prevented a large gathering, but the fifty-odd souls who were present heard a good sermon on the "King's Highway." NAVAL "TORES. The Stocks at the Ports at the Close of the Week.
