XLVIII.--NO. 5. There are various kinds of blushes. the blush of shame, of guilt, of modesty, of anger or of sudden ex citement. There . are cheeks that blush, and cheeks that neyer blush. The fellow with the cheek of an army mule, that wants the front seat everywhere, and four seats when he jumps into a railroad car, never blushes. If you have never studied up on the blush question, and would like to know just what it is, here is the kind of blush they get up in Cincinnati, according to one of the physicians out there, who has been diagnosing it. He describes it-as "a temporary erythema and calorific effulgence of the physiognomy, aetiologized by the perceptiveness of th.e sensorium when in a predica men of unequilibrity from a sense of shame, anger or other cause, eventu ating in a paresis of the vaso-motar nervous filaments of the facial capil laries, whereby being divested of their elasticity, they are suffused with radiant, serated, compound nutritive circulating liquid, emanat ing from an intimidated praecordia." A London paper which bears the title of Woman asks the question, "Is a husband worth having." Judg ing from the number of husbands scattered around here and there it would seem the general impres sion has been for some time that they are. But this depends. Some husbands are worth having and others are not worth powder enough to blow them to h alifax, or words to that effect. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. B. F. Keith Paving brick. Notice Certificate o' election.

Under the new law concerning the city government, it will be necessary for the Board of Aldermen to elect a member in place of Alderman Ricaud, who was yesterday chosen Mayor. The new member of the Board will be elected probably at the meeting of the Board next Monday night. The rector and wardens of St. James' Church having kindly extended an invitation to the congregation of St. Paul's Church to join with them in the Communion and other services on Easter Sunday, St. Paul's will therefore not be open on that day. Mr. Cutlar, the senior warden of St. Paul's, requests the announcement made that the Easter offerings of the people ot St. Paul's will be deferred until the Sunday after Easter. He also hopes the congrega tion will accept the invitation. Funeral of Mr. Wm. Larking. The funeral of Mr. William Larkins, whose death was announced in the Star, took place yesterday afternoon at half-past 4 o'clock from the First Baptist Church. It was largely attended and the remains were followed to-their last resting place by a great concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. T. H. Pritchard, D. D., assist ed by Rev. T. E. Peele. There were many beautiful 'floral offerings. The pall-bearers were Mr. B. F. Mitch ell, Mr. A. Alderman, Mr. Jas. W. Col lins, Mr. E. S. Martin, Mr. O. Fennell, Mr. H. H. Munson, J. C. Stevenson and Mr. W. A. French. Our New Mayor. As was foreseen and predicted by those who watched the political drift, Mr. A. G. Ricaud was yesterday elected Mayor of the City of Wilmington. Mr. Ricaud is a well-equipped lawyer, a man of excellent judgment, of fine practical sense, and withal a generous, genial fel low. The "Tudge," as he is familiarly called by his friends, has the courage of his dbnvictions and will do what he con ceives to be his duty; and he ought to make a good Mayor, as he has in him many strong elements of success.

The New Members Take the Oath and Assume the Duties of Officers Elec tion of Mayor and Other Officers. The newly elected Aldermen assem bled in the City Court room yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock for the purpose of organizing the Board. There was a great gathering of spectators, white and colored, that filled the room. Alderman Mallett was in the chair, and within the railing were seated Alderman Ricaud, Post, Fowler, Fish blate, (Dems.,) and Bell, Willis, Nixon and Walker, (col. Reps.) Mr. Willson, the clerk, presented the official returns from t.he Fifth Ward. showing that George Bell and Godfrey Willis were elected Aldermen from that Ward. The Chair stated that the next busi ness in order was the election of a Mayor. Alderman Fowler stated that the Alderman from the Fourth Ward, Mr. Alex Adrian, was not present and moved that a recess of ten minutes be taken before entering into an election. Alderman Fishblate favored proceed ing with the order of business, and while the matter was in abeyance Mr. Adrian appeared and took his seat. The clerk then called the roll, all the members answering, and the Chair stated that nominations for Mayor were in order. Alderman Post, rising, said that as a representative of the Democratic mem bers of the Board he desired to put in nomination a gentleman learned in the law, who would carry out the wishes of the board, deal justly with every one, and was approachable alike by rich and poor Mr. Addison G. Ricaud. Alderman Fishblate seconded the'nom ination of Alderman Ricaud as a true representative of the young Democracy of the city, and thoroughly identified with its best interests. J. O. Nixon was nominated by Alder man Walker, and the nomination was seconded by Alderman Walker. Alderman Post and Walker were ap pointed tellers, and the ballot resulted ; Ricaud, 0; Nixon, 4. The Chair declared Alderman Ricaud elected Mayor and amid great applause from the spectators Mr. Ricaud took the oath of office and was escorted to the chair by Alderman Post, and presented to the Board as Mayor of the City of Wilmington. Mayor Ricaud, after taking the oath of office, returned thanks to the Board for the honor conferred upon him, and said that he accepted the same with mingled feelings of pride and anxiety. Mith pride at the confidence that had been shown in him by his friends and anxiety at the responsibilities of the office. He said he accepted the office with the desire to do that alone which was best for the city of Wilmington, and that in the discharge of his duties he would know neither Democrat nor Re publican; but on all party questions arising on the Board, he would always be found on the Democratic side, repre senting to the best of his ability the views of his constituents. He further said that under the recent amendment to the city charter, the Mayor was deprived of a voice in the deliberations of the -Board, and thus could secure for himself by inaction ap proval by endorsing every popular measure, and shield himself from blame in unpopular ones. But he did not de sire to shrink in any particular, and on all questions was ready and willing to express his opinion when requested, ir respective of his right to vote on the same. He assured the colored mem bers of the Board that he would treat them with all the courtesy and consid eration that they could demand of any gentleman. The straightforward and manly re marks of Mayor Ricaud impressed the audience most favorably and cheer after cheer greeted him upon its conclusion, showing the high esteem in which he is held by his fellow citizens. Alderman Nixon then arose and thanked his associates for their support of him as Mayor, and stated that he un derstood from the speeches made that under the new administration police court fines would not be so high as they had heretofore been, and he trusted that when ten dollars could be made the fine instead of twenty dollais, that ten dol lars would be the limit because a man could pay ten dollars easier than he could twenty. He therefoie moved that the election of Mayor Ricaud be made unanimous. Alderman Fishblate said the Alder man had misunderstood his remarks. What he (Fishblate) wished to say was that the new Mayor would not make his office a police court and degrade it by making policemen issue warrants and put the fees in his own pockets instead of into the city treasury. Alderman Fowler said that it had long been a custom for the Mayor to try certain cases as a magistrate;" his predecessor had done so, and he had done so and had turned the fees over to the city treasury until with in the past two years, when some of the fees had been spent for expenses of the city government. MARCH 28, 1891. Alderman Fishblate rose to reply, amid much noise and confusion, but the Chair insisted that these personalities were unfortunate and that order must be maintained, and the ' excitement quieted down. Alderman Fishblate again arose and attempted to speak; but Alderman Adrian objected, and Alderman Mallett moved that the Board proceed with the business before them. Alderman Fishblate, however, kept the floor, and again charged Alderman Fowler with prostituting his office as Mayor. Alderman Fowler arose and said that Alderman Fishblate was a liar, and the two Alcfermen excitedly advanced a step or two towards each other, but were re strained by the Chief of Police, who en tered the railing, and by the other mem bers of the Board. Amid much excitement the Chair stated his purpose to have order main tained at any cost, and after the matter had quieted down, said the election of Clerk and Treasurer was next in order. Alderman Nixon asked if it was not in order to proceed at once to the elec tion ot an alderman to fill the vacancy on the Board caused (under the new law) by the election of Alderman Ricaud as Mayor. The Chair disagreed with the alder man in regard to the matter, and as no copy of the law was at hand the matter was passed over. , Alderman Post nominated Mr. W. A. Willson (the present incumbent) for City Clerk and Treasurer. No other nomination was made and Mr. Willson was elected unanimously, and in a short speech expressed his appreciation of the honor conferred upon him. The Mayor called for nominations for Chief of Police. Alderman Adrian nominated Col. E. D. Hall. There was no opposition and the election was unanimous. Nominations for City Attorney were then called lor. Alderman Post nominated Mr. Thos. W. Strange and Alderman Walker nomi nated Mr. C. P. Lockey.' A ballot was ordered and Mr. Strange received 5 votes and Mr. Lockey 4. Mr. Strange was declared elected. Alderman Post then nominated Dr. F. W. Potter for Superintendent of Health. No other nomination was made and Dr. Potter's election was unani mous. The election of Chief of Fire Depart ment was next in order, and Alderman Mallett nominrted Mr. Martin Newman. Alderman Ball nominated Valentine Howe. A ballot resulted Newman 5, Howe 4 and" Mr. Newman - was declared elected. Nominations for Superintendent of Streets were then announced. Alderman Fishblate nominated Mr. W. H. Sholar, and Alderman Nixon nominated Isham Sweet. Mr. Sholar received 5 votes to Sweet's 2, and was declared elected. Alderman Fishblate moved that fur ther elections be postponed until the next meeting and that the Board ad journ to meet Monday night next Lt 8 o'clock. The Board then adiourned. After the Board adjourned, but be fore the members had left the table, an altercation took place between Alder men Fishblate and Fowler, but they were separated by friends before they could get in good reach of each other. There was a great crowd of people in the room at the time, and the affair created considerable excitement, which soon quieted down under the efforts of the Chief of Police and his men. Norfolk Business College. ' To be well and correctly educated is a condition above wealth and beyond birth. An education that does not fit a person to gain a livelihood and meet the responsibilities of life is worthless. A business education should be devoutly wished for by every young person, rich or poor. The poor need it as a depend ence, the rich need it as a defense. As thousands of young men " and women will peruse these columns, whom, many of them, would doubtless be glad to know how to proceed to procure a first class business education on reasonable terms, we here call their attention to the successful and progressive Norfolk Business College. This college offers the most reasonable terms of any like college in the South, while its facilities for giving the student a first-class busi ness education are unsurpassed. Shorthand writing, penmanship, bookkeeping, arithmetic, correspon dence, commercial law, and business practice are all tuaght here by pro ficient instructors. The rates of tui tion are only $30 for a term of three months, and when the fact is consid ered that this is one of the most relia ble and substantial colleges in the South, and that others charge as high as $60 for the same term, we heartily invite those wanting a first-class busi ness education to open correspon dence with Mr. I. W. Potton, the prin cipal of this college. Norfolk Trade Review. Not Dimmed by Age. Greensboro Record. The Wilmington Morning Star has been shedding its light upon the world for twenty years and six months, and has never missed a singular issue, nor changed ownership during the- whole time. We congratulate Wilmington and also Mr. Bernard, and hope the Star may shine as long as its namesake re mains in the firmament. TAR WHOLE NO. 7.640 GOOD FRIDAY. The Day's Observance in Wilmington Services at the Churches. Good Friday was observed yesterday in Wilmington as a half holiday; thePro duce Exchange, the banks and a few busines houses were closed, and services were held at St. James' and St. John's Episcopal Churches, at St. Thomas' Catholic, and at St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran. The services at St. Paul's Lutheran Church were very elaborate. Last night before 8 o'clock crowds were wending their way to the Lutheran Church to witness the interesting and impressive confirmation services, &c. The Pastor, Rev. F. W. E. Peschau, addressed the class of 18 members from the text, Romans 10, 9. After singing, he was followed by Rev. Geo. H. Cox, the President of the Evangelical Lutheran Synod of North Carolina, who delivered a most highly interesting, appropriate and instructive address that could not but do good. He was listened to with rapt attention throughout. The impressive confirmation services were then performed by the pastor, who during the services also confirmed' a married lady. It was indeed a lovely sight to see the large class of nine boys and nine, girls surround the altar of the church to perform so high and holy a duty. We herewith present the names ot the members of the class: Edward Ahrens, John Ahrens, John Blomme, Otto Dingelooef, Hardy Haar, Gereard Runge, Wm. Steenken, Emil Wessell, Henry Woebse, Josephine Boecher, Annie Doescher, Lena Haar, Lizzie M iller, Mary Mohr, Louise Sols, Marie Schulken, Mamie Steljes, Maggie Strauss. Among the members of the class are Hardy H. Haar and Lena Haar, who are twins, and Miss Josephine Boecher, who is almost a deaf and dumb mute. She answered the questions in the Holy Confirmation by the sign language. The eighteen confirmed in the class, the lady confirmed, one member re ceived in the morning, and four received previously, make twenty-four 'additions thus far. But others were prevented by serious sickness from uniting thmselves with the Church. The Church was crowded from end to end and every bit of available space in the body of the building and the gallery was occupied. The music jn all the services of the day, although of a sad nature, was highly appropriate and some of it most superb. The decorations were in full keeping with the history and observance of the day and the good taste ot the Lutheran ladies. The services on Easter Sunday will be in English both morning and night. Rev. Geo. H. Cox will preach in each service. The ladies will change the en tire decorations for Easter Sunday and Prof. Miller and his orchestra will assist in the services. The Democratic Caucus. The caucus of the six Democratic members of the Board of Aldermen held yesterday at noon did not last long. Re liable report has it that on the first bal lot for Mayor the vote was three for Fowler and three for Ricaud. Mr. Fow ler's name was then withdrawn and on the second ballot Mr. Ricaud received all the votes. For the other officers the Chief of Police, City Clerk and Treasurer, Chief of Fire Department and Superintendent of Health the old incumbents were chosen; the only change being in the office of City Attorney, for which Mr. Thos. W. Strange was chosen in place of Mr. D. B. Cutlar. Stormy Weather. Pleasant weather yesterday with a genial sun and a gentle breeze from the Southwest, but the storm signal floated all tiay from the flag-staff on the Gov ernment building. Advices from Wash ington point to the probability that bad weather will continue to be the feature on the South Atlantic coast with severe gales. The storm that was off the coast yesterday morning gave place last night to a blizzard from the Northwest, which brought heavy falls of snow yes terday in Virginia. All Bight Bro. Bailey. As the matter was mentioned in the Star, we take pleasure in reproducing the annexed paragraph from the Bibli cal Recorder: The synopsis of Dr. T. H. Pritchard's admirable sermon, "The Christian Man in Business," which appeared in the Re corder of the 18th inst., was taken from the columns of the Morning Star, of Wilmington, N. C, for March 10th. By an oversight of one of our compositors no credit was given the Star, though it was plainly marked on the copy. We beg Bro. Bernard's pardon, and assure him that such mistakes seldom occur in this office. Weekly Prayer Meeting. Commencing with to-night and con tinuing until further notice, the working and business men will commence their weekly prayer and experience meeting on Saturday night at the Seaman s Bethel, on Dock street, at 8 o'clock. These meetings are very enjoyable and the working and business men are not only urged to attend and enjoy them but seafaring men and the ladies are also invited to attend. RATES OF ADVERTISING.
