Chicago claims 2,048 miles of streets, about twice as many as any other city in the country. At the rate at which Chicago extends her city limits one can't always tell whether he is on a street or a coun try road. ' ' " The New York papers say that while it costs 71 cents per capita of the population to" clean the streets of Gotham, Scents per capita does the job in Chicago. But they for get that the feet of the Gothamites are not so large as the feet of the Chicagoese, and don't lift "and tote off so much dirt. .

' . . - William Johnston, of ' Lincoln, Neb., aged 19 years, began at the age of 14 to woo Mrs. .Fannie Dearth, aged 52, and after patience, perseverance, and indomitable pluck, won and wedded her the other other day. When festive youths thus wed widows who have scored the half- century line there must be a dearth of maidens in that sovereignty A Georgia scientist has discovered that paper money is infested by a little bug which pastures on the paper money, but is found no where else. Perhaps this will account for the peculiar itchin? which affects the digits of some men when they handle paper money that belongs to some one else. This Georgia man with his microscope counted more than 3,000 them romping around on old five dollar bill and each one had four feet and a little bill of his own. - ' Brayer Shepard of the JVJ Y.

He has re- w cently discovered that there "exists w the late rebel states organizations wnose sole purpose it is to cherish the old SDirit ' of treasonable resis- tance to the Federal Government." Father-in-law Vanderbilt must have been mistaken when he said that his son-in-law was "more kinds of ad d tool than any man he knew" for such a fool as this could never have made such a discovery as this.

J The weather yesterday at Southport was cloudless with a light sea-swell. An ample supply of bedding for the Fayetteville soldiers was carried to Carolina Beach yesterday. A large number of colored ex cursionists, from Florence and Conway boro, S. C. arrived in the city yesterday morning. ; v A letter received ;by Mr. W.' A.

The Fayetteville Independent Light Infantry will remain in camp un til Tuesday morning. They return home on the regular C. F. & Y. V. train leaving here at 10.45 a. m. Moderate rainfall was reported by the Weather Bureau yesterday throughout the cotton belt. The tem perature continued high, the average maximum ranging from 00 to 96 de grees. The Concert To-night. Through the courtesy of Postmaster G. Z. French the Fayetteville Indepen dent Light Infantry Band will occupy one of the grass-plots in front of the Post-Office for their concert to-night. The ladies will find good positions at The Orton, immediately opposite, where Manager Montague and his corps of polite clerks will do all in their power to ' provide for their com fort. The- music stands, torches, &c. will be furnished by the Second Regi ment Band, whose members are active in their efforts to make all necessary preparations for their Fayetteville con temporaries. The Band is a fine one, and if the weather proves propitious there will be one of the largest audiences ever assembled at an . open-air concert in Wilmington. A Hunter's Cup. That veteran sportsman Brooke Erapie, who has just returned from a European tour,", remembered our field editor and brought him an ingeniously devised drinking cup, made specially for hunters. It is made of rubber, and when rolled- up it can be conveniently carried in the vest pocket. WJaea unrolled and "ready for action" it will hold a half-pint of w ater. The health of Cousin Gwath"willbe drunk on the 15th Oc tober, at the spring near Easy Hill. . The Balloon Ascension. . The balloon ascension at Carolina Beach this afternoon will doubtless attract a large crowd. Aeronaut Jewell's experience last Saturday proved that he had 'sand" without digging up the beach, and those who attend his per formance to-day are not apt to be dis appointed. There seems to be no rea sonable doubt that he will make the parachute drop this afternoon,"bmitting the drop in the ocean. "Schedule B" Tax. There was a well authenticated rumor here yesterday that Judge Seymour; of the U. S. Court, had decided adversely to the applicant in the habeas corpus case from this city, wherein the defend ant, a merchant who refused to pay the tax and against whom judgment was given by the magistrate who tried the case, claimed exemption under the Inter State law.

His wife, daughter of Hon. T. W, Dortch, and two small hildre.1 survive him. - . r : THE FAST MAIL TRAIN. The Atlantic Coast Irfne Contemplating a Lengthening of the Schedule Five or Six Hours to llake TJp for the "Reduction in. . Government Pay - by Local Traffic I : A Morning News reporter asked Traffic Manager C. p. Owens of the Plant sys tem yesterday in reference to the taking off of the fast mall train between "New York and Jacksonville on account "of the reduction by the Postoffice Depart ment of the amount paid for the service of the fast mail and the probability of a still further reduction, j Mr. Owens saidt is true that the pay for running the fast mail had been cut down one-third by the Postoffice De partment. The ' result is that it is no longer profitable to continue the fast mail schedule. He could not say that the train would be taken off if there were any further reduction, as he had received no notice from the Postoffice Department of any intention of a further reduction. , Mr. Owens said the fast mail was put on especially as a mail train and for no other purpose, and its revenue from other sources is comparatively small. The train leaves New York at 4 o'clock a. m., reaching Savannah in twenty-six hours and . Jacksonville in thirty-one hours. It stops only at cities and junc tion points and for wood and water. Consequently it derives no revenue from local traffic. It is contemplated to increase the time of the train five or six hours, enabling it to stop at local points and make up for its lost revenue by -the local traffic The time from New York to Jacksonville would then be from thirty-six to j thirty-eight hours, and to Savannah about thirty-two hours instead of twenty-six, as at present. The schedule would be arranged so as to consume about two days and a night on the through trip. Mr. J. R. Kenly, General Manager of the Atlantic Coast Lme, when asked by a Star reporter whether the statements in the above article -clipped from the Morning News, of Savannah, Ga., were true, said, that it was a fact that the fast mail pay bad been reduced - one-third, and that lengthening the running time oi the fast mail by six hours was now under consideration; but nothing had yet been definitely f decided and that probably a meeting will be held in about ten days which will decide what is to be done. 1 PECArTcULTURE. Interest in the Subject of Cultivating the Pecan Mr. Jewett, of Cronly, Prepar ing Seventy Acres for an Orchard. The articles which have recently ap peared in the Star on the cultivation of the pecan nut have attracted a good deal of attention, and will probably lead to the planting of several "orchards." Mr. Stephen Jewett, a former Wilming tonian, but for some years a resident of Cronly, is enthusiastic on the subject. He was at the Star office Tuesday and informed the Star representative that he was confident there was a fortune in the pecan. . So confident is he, in fact, that he is now preparing seventy acres of land for a pecan orchard. With commendable torethought he will wait until he secures all attainable informa tion in regard to the different varieties of the pecan before setting out the young trees, for he realizes that a mis take made now, cannot be remedied. Mr. Jewett estimates that when ten years old his trees would yield him a net income of nearly four thou sand dollors. When fifteen years old, this amount w.ould!be' quadrupled; and when twenty years old, the trees having reached their full maturity, they would yield a small fortune every year. So anxious is Mr. Jewett to post him self thoroughly on the subject he is now so deeply interested in that he will make a visit to a Mr. Stuart, in Missis sippi, this Fall, who is said to have made a great success of pecan culture, selling some of the nuts, for seed, as high as one dollar per pound. ' Home Again. i- Chief Newman of the Fire Depart ment, and Alderman Jas. F. Post, Jr., returned last evening from their visit to Springfield, Mass,! to attend the con vention of fire engineers, etc The con vention, which was the 19th annual one, was attended by.about 250 persons, in cluding chiefs, assistants, fire commis sioners, superintendents of fire alarm telegraph, manufacturers of apparatus and others. Many subjects were dis cussed and papers were read on dangers of electric light wires, "schools for in struction in fire departments," etc, and much valuable information was gleaned.

Bernard was called to the chair and Mr. H. H. Smith was requested to act as secretary.

That we welcome to our "City by the Sea" the members of the Fayetteville Independent Light Infantry Company, and bespeak for them the hearty good will ot our soldiery and civilians; convinced that their visit will not only be fraught with pleasure to themselves, but be the means of bind ing us closer together. 2. It is with pride and veneration we look into the history of our time-honored organization,where there are such stores of virtue and patriotism, such inex haustable sources of perfection. In peace,' in war, the old Independent Com pany has been inspired to act as was most expedient for the particular and general good of the old North State. 3.
