When Queen Victoria travels on the railroads she don't dead head. She buys her tickets and pays first class fare for all her attendants. That gives her the right to talk back to the baggage smashers Senator Peffer, of Kansas, rises to remark that there is no truth in the report circulated that in matters not affecting the Farmers' Alliance he would vote with the Republicans in the Senate. He proposes to swing a free lance. The question is asked, "Does wealth bring happiness?" Well, we don't known how it may be with Rockefeller, Vanderbilt, Jay Gould, and others, but we have no hesita tion in declaring that it has never brought any to us. It is stated that three-fourths of the children born in Boston are of foreign parentage. This is not be cause the foreigners so largely pre ponderate in that town over the .natives, but because large families are not fashionable among the tony natives. J. W. Midgeley, the Chicago rail road man, who gets a salary of $30, 000 a year, had to quit the news paper business on account of failing sight. If there are any other rail roads looking for damaged-eyed $30,000 men, notice is hereby' given that our eye sight is not near as good as it used to be.

Red hair is at a discount in Chi cago. Morns Kennedy mortally offended Mr. Casey by boldly as serting that Mrs. Casey had red hair.

Rev. Sam Small, of Georgia, seems to be getting into a tangle with his his new friends in Utah.

West Virginia burglars sometimes pursue their avocation under discou raging circumstances. Three of them recently paid a nocturnal visit to a house in the town of Raleigh theo nly occupant of which at the time was a young lady. When the leader had succeeded in reaching the window and was scrambling through his head came in sudden contact with an axe in the hands of the young lady, and he retired head over heels to the sidewalk, and his companions also precipitately retired without waiting for further developments. Before King Humbert decides to send any of his ships over to pepper New Orleans he should masticate the suggestion made by an Englishman to the War Department, that when the fleet puts in an appearance off the mouth of the Mississippi the aforesaid mouth be filled full of oil and fire set to it, and thus give the Italians a warm reception. It is not often that an Englishman warms up, but when he does warm up he warms up good. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. I. Shrier Success. H. L. Fennell Lap robes. Brown & Roddick Matting. J. H.

NG ELECTRIC RAILWAY. Resolutions Adopted by the Produce Exchange Ordinance Granting Bight of Way Amended and Adopted by the Board of Aldermen. The Produce Exchange met yester day afternoon to consider the matter of the proposed Electric Street Railway Company laying tracks on Nutt and Water street, and after a full discussion of the subject, adopted the following re solutions, which the Secretary was in structed to present to the Board of Al dermen forthwith, viz : Whereas, The Board of Aldermen of this city have under consideration the passage of an ordinance granting to corporation the exclusive right to build or extend its railway tracks through any or all of the -streets and alleys of the city, and to propel cars thereon by either horse or mechanical power; and whereas, the said grant would be in the nature of a contract, depriving the proper authorities of the power to compel the said corporation at any future time to change or remove its road-bed as the public convenience might require; therefore Resolved, That it is the sense of this meeting that the Board of Aldermen should not act hastily in this matter, but should allow time for all citizens to un derstand the question thoroughly and to form an opinion thereon intelligently. Resolved, That the granting of the said railway privileges on Water and Nutt streets involves more serious conse quences than would be the case on any other streets and requires most careful and deliberate action. The narrowness of said streets makes it extremely doubtful whether the passage ot cars thereon at any and all hours would not practically destroy its value as a thoroughfare lor other vehicles, and compel the traffic thereon to be done exclusively by cars, to the great inconvenience of merchants and damage to property. Resolved, That' it is the sense of this meeting that if the Board of Aldermen can make a contract with these parties for such a system as by restricting the hours to which cars shall be used will not interfere with the use of these streets by other vehicles, and will not damage property, that the privilege should be granted. In the afternoon, at 3 o'clock, the Board of Aldermen met, pursuant to ad journment r riday afternoon, to hear the report of the Streets and Wharves Com mittee on the Ordinance referred to them for consideration, and which was as follows : Be it ordained and enacted. That the rights conferred by charter to the Wil mington Street Railway Company to substitute mechanical power for that of horses be and is hereby confirmed by the ordinances or this city, and that for the proper distribution of its electric conduits the company shall have the right to erect poles and string its wires through, or to lay conduits and run its wires under the streets ana alleys oi Wilmington. And that for the period eighteen months from the passage of the ordinance the said company is grantea the right to build or extend its tracks through any street or alley in Wilming ton; provided, that all such planting of conduits and running or stringing of wires shall be done in accordance with all the police and health regulations of the city of Wilmington, and subject to the supervision of the city engineer. The committee, through its chairman, Alderman Fishblate, submitted an amendment to the above, which alter slight change was approved and adopt ed, as follows: Insert after Wilmington in 17th line of printed ordinance hereto attached, "except all of Third and Fifth streets and all of Market street west of Fifth street, not now occupied by said com pany." Add the following provisions at the end of said ordinance: "And pro vided further that said company will agree to keep in repair all that portion of the streets occupied by its tracks, be tween said tracks and one foot on each side in the same order and condition as the rest of the street on either side thereof and said repairs to conform to any and all such changes and improvements as the city may hereafter make and the track to conform to the grade of the streets: and provided, further, that if said company shall not extend its elec trical or mechanical plant to cover a distance in said city equal to its present line within the time above provided, the privileges hereby conferred shall be forfeited; and provided further, that no cars shall be run over and on any track which the said company may lay on Nutt and Water streets hours of 8 a. m. and 4 p. any car or train of said operated or propelled on steam power. between the m., nor shall company be any street by And provided further, that nothing herein contained, shall be construed as a surrender of the rights of the City of Wilmington, conferred by the act of the General Assembly, entitled "an act to amend an act, entitled an act to incor porate the Wilmington Street Railway Company, passed at the present session of the C-eneral AssemDiy, 4th day of March, 1887." The Republican members of the a Board opposed granting any franchise to the company on Water and Nutt streets and Alderman Bell, of the Streets and Wharves Committee, submitted a minority report (which was rejected by by a vote of six to four) reciting That the construction of any roadway along Water and Nutt streets will sen ouslv interfere with traffic on account of the present narrowness of said streets; and further that the construction named would be inimical to the labor interests of this city and dangerous to human life in so narrow and frequented a thoroughfare. We therefore recom mend that permission for the construe tion and operation of any railway on Water and Nutt streets be not allowed The Register of Deeds issued seven marriage licenses the past week of which three were for white couples Star SUNDAY SERVICES.

Besolutions Adopted by the New Han over Veterans' Association, New Hanover County Confederate Veterans' Association, Wilmington, N. C, April 13. Another hero of our "lost cause" has "passed over the river" to join the mighty host of his comrades who have gone before, and we feel called on by ties of friendship thus severed, to lay upon the freshly made grave where rest the ashes of John R. Cookb a tribute of love, friendship and esteem. General Cooke was peculiarly endear ed to North Carolinians from having been associated with North Carolina troops from first to last of our heroic struggle for liberty. As captain ot artillery, he served un der General Holmes, on the Potomac; transferred with that command to North Carolina early in 1862, and upon the re organization of the twelve months' regi ments, he having made so many iriends, was elected Colonel of the 27th, with which he served with distinction until his services were, in part, recognized by further promotion. His firmness ot character, unflinching bravery and devotion to the interests and comfort of every man in his com mand, coupled with extreme gentleness in the enforcement of necessary disci pline, made him beloved by every indi vidual. Stricken down in the midst of a use ful career, in the full bloom of man hood, his death should be a striking les son to his surviving comrades, and re mind them that they, too, must soon join that innumerable thiong; let us hope and trust, in a better land. To his stricken widow and children we tender our heartfelt sympathy, and commend them to the keeping of the Almighty Father, who has promised protection to the widow and fatherless Ed. D.
