OUTLINES.
It is again affirmed that no effort will
be made in Congress to bring up the
Closure rule and the Elections bill.-
A revolution broke out in Oporto,
Portugal, yesterday; three regiments of
infantry revolted, the purpose being to
proclaim a republic; later reports are
that the revolt was suppressed and order
restored. Lieut. Schwatka, of
Arctic fame, fell down a stairway at
Mason City. Ia., and sustained fatal in
juries. A syndicate of Boston and
Chicago importers has"rjeen formed to
test the legality of the McKinley tariff
bill. The funeral of the late Secre
tary Windom will take place at Washing
ton, D. C, at noon to-morrow; all post
offices throughout the country and all
public offices will be closed from 11 to 12
noon. N. Y. markets: Money easy;
no loans, closing offered at 3 per cent.;
cotton quiet; middling 9 5-16 cents;
middling 9 cents; southern flour firm
and quiet; wheat stronger and mod
erately active; No. 2 red $1 101 10
at elevator and $1 11 afloat; No. 2,
red, February $1 09,; rosin steady and
quiet; strained, common to good,
$1 421 47; spirits turentine quiet
and firm at 4141c.
The Force bill covered 192 printed
pages. There was a large amount
of mental effort and type-setting
wasted there.
James Gordon Bennett contem
plates erecting the finest newspaper
building in the world for the New
York Herald.
There is a bill before the New
York Legislature which provides for
a tine of 25 on a voter who fails to
vote a general election.
There is a striking resemblance
between Foraker, of Ohio, and the
Force bill. Neither of them like to
own up that they are dead.
Senator Edmunds would like not
only to gag Democratic Senators,
but to gag the galleries also when
they applaud Democratic victories.
Henry Watterson writes a very
good hand for Kentucky, but when
it goes out of Kentucky he generally
has to send some one along to trans
late it.
Patriotic high tariff protectionists
should now all go to using tin cups,
since they have got to making
American tin cups, to boost this in
fant industry.
Mrs. Jefferson Davis, who is now
in New York, is reported to be in a
critical state of health, rarely leaving
her apartments. She is suffering
from heart trouble.
Senator Aldrich don't believe in
paying a bounty to silver miners but
he does believe in paying a bounty
to iron miners. Is not silver mining
an American industsy which shou Id
be fostered?
The Philadelphia Times remarks
that the Republican Senators who
supported the gag rule "stand well
with their party." Considering how
poorly the party stands at present
with the country this is a doubtful
coinpliment.
As a general thing we do not ap
prove of absenteeism in Congress,
but considering the fact that the Re
publican members can serve their
country much better by their absence
than by their presence they all might
be granted an indefinite leave.
We are under obligations to Hon.
W. L. Wilson, of West Virginia, for
a pamphlet containing speeches made
in the House on a uniform system
of bankruptcy, by himself and ten
other members of Congress, giving
their views on what such a system
should be.
It is announced that the New
York Star has passed into the hands
of Mr. Frank A. Munse, and' will
hereafter appear under the name of
The Daily Continent." The Star has
been Democratic, as straight as a
shingle. What its politics in future
are to be is not announced
At a dinner recently at which Gen.
Sherman was one of the guests, after
the band had .played "Marching
Through" Georgia," he remarked, "I
have often thought that when I was
marching to the sea, it would have
been well had I marched into it."
There are a good many people down
in this country who will agree with
him.
VOL. XLVn.--NO. 112.
If the election returns be any
indication the St. Louis Globe-Democrat,
Republican, got down to the
hard-pan truth when it remarked
that it was "folly to ignore the fact
that large numbers of voters in all
the States have been alienated from
the Republican party." As a matter
of fact it does look very much that
way, although it seems to be hard
for the Republican statesmen to
catch on.
"Old Hutch," the Chicago grain
speculator, who was rated worth $20,"
000,000 in 1870, is said to be reduced
now to a single million, having lost
at the rate of a million a year. At
the earnest solicitation of his family
he has retired. As the old man is
not of very extravagant habits he
can pull through on a million.
Wh en there is any unusual excite
ment in the House and a Texas man
reaches back into his hip-pocket for
a "chaw" or anything of that sort.
Col. Shepard, of the New York .Mail
and Express, feels sure there is a new
war cropping out and that it is time
to be calling for troops before the
Texas man captures the" country.

A Hunter's Tribute.
"King," the best deer dog in Bruns
wick county, was accidentally killed Fri
day, his life being crushed out by a fall
ing tree. He was owned by Mr. Alex.
Liles, and though not a dog
" of Black St. Hubert's breed,
Unmatched for courage, breath and
speed,"
He would bring to gun as many deer in
a day's hunt as the best hound that ever
opened on a trail. The intelligence
of his untimely death was received
with genuine sorrow by our field
editor, to whose pleasure he had so
often contributed, and who had so often
" Cheered him on the vanished game."
Poor old "Kins:!" The heartiness
with which heentered into the sports of
the field, his childlike devotion to his
master, and the loving expression of his
"soft black eye" can never-be forgotten
by those who knew him.
Though his head was not "hune; with
ears that -sweep away the morning dew,"
he was a "King" among dogs.
A Fox Killer.
" Lumber, ' a very fine fox hound, has
been presented to the Wilmington Fox
-Clubby Mr. William Boylan, Jr., of
Raleigh. The "Boylan pack" is known
all over North Carolina, so the donor
will be believed in what he says in the
following: letter to Capt. Phil. Thomas :
"Am now breeding to his father, 13
years old; has run twelve seasons and
qeen at the death of between 475 and 500
foxes. We went hunting last Saturday
in the rain and caught three foxes, be
tween 9 and 2 o'clock. The first we
killed in 7 minutes; the second in 20 and
the third in 40 minutes. So you see
'Lumber' is used to fast company. We
have had from 15 to 35 dogs for twelve
years and I have only had three faster
than Lumber one a brother one a sis
ter and one a niece of his. Take him
all around he is the finest fox dog I ever
owned or saw."

ZACH SIMMONS.
Arrest of a Colored Man Who is Wanted
in Jones County.
A colored man who gaveshis name as
Zach Simmons, was arrested last night
by Deputy Sheriff Millis. He is charged
with shooting a negro through the
mouth while he was assisting an officer
in taking Simmons to jail in Jones coun
ty some time ago. At that time Sim
mons went by the name of Thos. Bry
ant. Simmons denies that he is the man
wanted, and claims to have beerv living
in Wilmington for twelve months past.
His wife, however, "gave him away" to
the officars, who upon inquiry of the
sheriff of Tones county found that her
story was true. Zach, it seems, had
abandoned her,
The prisoner was lodged in jail, to
await the action of the Jonescounty
authorities. He has been in the em
ploy of John Whiteman, at the latter's
brick-yard near this city. His wife
says that in Jones county he was known
as Thomas Bryant, in Newbern as
Thomas Cox, and here as Zach Sim
mons. Not True.
The Norfolk Ledger says: "The report
that the schooner Frank S. Hall, Capt.
Harris, from New York to Wilmington,
had been beached near Cape Hatterasf
with rudder gone, is untrue. The vessel
arrived in Hampton Roads this mora
ine, and Capt Harris, who was in the
city to-day, reports the vessel all right."
A Mass Meeting of Colored People.
A mass meeting of colored people will
be held in St. Stephen's A. M. E. Church
Mondav night at 7.30 o clock, for the
Duroose of taking action with a view to
securing the location of the proposed
Industrial School for Colored Children
in this city.

WILMINGTON LIGHT INFANTRY.
The Crack "Company of the Second Begi
ment of the K". C. S. a. Words of
Praise from Adjutant General Glenn.
We have before us the annual report
of Adjutant General J. D. Glenn, and
find in it much of interest for Wilming
tonians and members of the Second
Regiment. Speaking of our Wilming
ton company, Gen. Glenn ssys:
Company C, Second Regiment, de
serves special credit, as this company
had a new uniform, lately bought, of a
very handsome and costly design, made
Of the historical gray that had been for
years the uniform of this company; yet
at their own expense, at very short
notice, they had the regulation dress
made, and wore it to encampment
This company is particularly fortunate
in having as its commander an officer
whose example is well worthy of lmita
tion by others; a gallant soldier, who
was ever at the post of duty dur
ing the four long years of civil
war, when the very souls of men
were tried; now an officer of the
State Guard, who yields ready and
cheerlul obedience to the orders of his
superiors, though some of them were
but boys when he was manfully battling
tor his country s rights. Well may the
young: Colonel of the Second Regiment
be proud of such a company and its
commander.
And we may add that the young
colonel is proud of the company and its
commander; and not only he, but all of
our citizens are proud of our soldier
boys, and the record they have made
nnder the commander above referred to
Capt. W. R. Kenan.
In the report quoted is Col. Jones' re
port, in which we find the following:
"It affords me pleasure to state that
on a hotly contested field at Charlotte
on the 20th of last May, the Wilmington
Light Infantry came off victorious and
brought with it the first prize offered for
the best drilled company by the good
citizens of that progressive city. And
again, the companies of the Second, as
did its commander, justly felt proud of
this hne organization in Richmond on
the parade of the 29th of May, when
they represented their regiment so well,
and by their gentlemanly conduct and
soldierly bearing caused praises without
number to be showered upon them."
In speaking of the Second Regiment
Gen. Glenn says :
"While I think comparisons are
odious, and certainly in their drills, dress
parades and guard mounts the regi
ments are nearly equal ; yet I must con
fess that never before since my long
connection with the Guard have I seen
a regiment march out of camp with such
splendid order, appearance and numbers
as the Second Regiment did on the
morning of the 12th of August."
WILSON TO FLORENCE.
The Last Link in the "Short Cut The
Contracts Set and Tracks to Bun
Through by August First.
The Fayetteville Observer gives the
following particulars concerning work
on the "Short Cut:"
The last link in the Atlantic Coast
Line's "Short Cut" to the South, via
Fayetteyille, will soon be welded by the
ties of steel, the contracts for grading
the remaining 43J miles between Fay
etteville and Rowland having been let
out to contractors on the 22nd inst.
The work has been divided into nine
sections, in order to expediate matters,
and from one of the authorities we learn
that the contracts were awarded as
follows:
Sections 1, 3, 4 and 5 to the State
penitentiary.
Section 2 to Col. R. L. Coleman, Of
Union, S. C.
Section 6, 7, 8 and 9 to Mayrant &
Jackson, of Cheraw, S. C.
lrestling and piling contract to R. A.
Simmons, of Philadelphia, Pa.
1 he contracts stipulate that all work
is to be finished on or before the 1st of
August next, so that next winter's
Southern travel can take advantage of
the "Short Cut" to the South over the
Atlantic Coast Line. Grading will com
mence at once at both ends of the line
The convicts are expected this week.
As soon as the first ten miles are graded
track-laying will commence.
OPERA HOUSE.
Marie Greenwood in Boccaccio Tuesday
Wight.
We clip the following from the St.
Paul (Minn.) Dispatch:
The Marie Greenwood Opera Com
pany scored a success last night at the
Newmarket, in the charming opera,
"Boccaccio." The performance intro
duced here a singer whose equal in com
ic opera has not been heard in many
years. The singer was Miss Marie Green
wood; she possesses a rich and finely
cultivated soprano. She sang the role
of Fiametta with a brilliancy in execu
tion and sweetness of tone that delight
ed the audience. The supporting com
pany was more than equal to all de
mands made upon it.
Reserved seats at Yates' to-morrow
