Wilmington's Welcome Week Commit ters Meet with the Citizens and Discuss Matters Pertaining: to the Affair. The citizens and the various commit tees heretofore appointed for Wilming ton's Welcome Week met in tbe City Hall last night at 8 o'clock. : On motion of Mr. Berry .Gleaves, Mr. Samuel Bear, Jr., was called to the chair and,-on taking it, he said the object of the meeting was to hear reports from the chairmen of the various committees, and requested the secretary, Mr. W. H. Carr, to call the names of the different committees. The secretary then called the committees, but very few of these responded. Mr. Sam'l Bear, for the Finance Com mittee, reported that the committee felt very much encouraged in their work so ar only a part ot Market and Front streets had been canvassed, which had resulted in subscriptions amounting to over $1,600. He thought if reasonable assistance was rendered by the trans portation companies, the finances would be all right. Mr. J. Allen Taylor, for the same committee, said he had met with great encouragement, and they would resume the work of calling on citizens to-day. Mr. E. S. Tennent asked how much had been raised, and Messrs. Bear and Carr answered $1,620 in all. Mr. Carr moved that the chairmen of the various committees be constituted an executive committee. Mr. Bear, in seconding the motion, explained that this executive CQmmittee would take charge of and execute all the plans of he various committees, so they would not clash or interfere with each other. Adopted. Major Walker Taylor asked what the railroads would do and how far the rates would extend. .Mr. . Gleav'es replied that he had ap plied to the railroads for one cent a mile. Continuing, Mr. Gleaves said the object of the executive committee was to have unity of action by the commit tees, so that no amusements of differ ent kinds would come off at the same time and it would push up committee men to duty. If men would not do their duty they must step down and out and let men who would, take their places. Applause. . Mr. Naumburg asked what -commit tee Mayor Ricaud was on. He was told the Reception Committee. Mr. Bear stated that the traffic mana gers of the railroads would be here to day and he wanted the Transportation Committee to meet them and arrange matters. . On the Atlantic Coast Line the one cent a mile rate ought to extend to Weldon, Charleston and Florence; to Mt. Airy on the C. F. & Y. V., the Car olina Central to its terminus, as also the W., O. & E. C. R. R. Mr. G. G. Lewis stated that parties outside the city desired to have floats in the parade. This he willing to if they paid $100 for the privilege. He represented a Baltimore shoe house that wanted, and he ended by making a motion to that effecti - Mr. Taylor moved to amend by per mitting non-residents to parade by pay ing $25, or $50. Mr. Sam Bear offered a substitute that the whole matter be referred to the Pa rade Committee. The substitute was adopted. Mr. F. W. Foster wanted-the Parade Committee to say who shall come in and how much they shall pay, and he wanted the Board of Aldermen consulted about the matter. Mr. Bear didn't think the Aldermen had anythiegto do with it. . Maj. Taylor said in Charleston the names of the subscribers were published and the amounts they gave. Mr. Carr didn't see why they should not be published. Mr. Bear thought they would better wait until all the amounts were in; he was opposed to having any 'show at all unless it was a creditable one. Mr, Gleaves said a name was suggested for thebaby, but it had not been bap tized yet, and he would like to hear something about it. Capt. Sharp, - Chairman of Name Committee, said the committee was ap pointed to name the baby and not to re port to anybody. A number seemed mania-stricken on gal-a week wanted something with a gal in it. Chairete pantes was Greek, new and original, and meant welcome all with joy; that is Wilmington welcomes an and nence Wilmington's Welcome, W, W. W., or three Ws. Getting a name was. the hardest job he ever attempted; names had run out at his house. JNo one bad suggested a better name. The commit tee gave a warm welcome to Wilming ton. (Applause.) The , name was adopted. Mr. Gleaves moved that the name- of Chairman Sharp be added to the Execu tive Committee. Adopted. Mr. J.Allen Taylor moved that the meeting adjourn until Wednesday night. Mr. Bear to adjourn at call of chair man. Mr. W. L. DeRosset, Jr., wanted them to quit talk and go to work, and get out their advertising matter. 1 Appiause.j These motions for adjournment were not nut. as the hall was about cleared The next meeting will have toAe called bv the chairman, Mr. George K. f rencn to whom Mr. Bear gave up the chair soon after the meeting opened. StAII BOARD OF ALDERMEN. Various Matters Discussed: at the Meet ing of the City Fathers Iiast Even in. The regular monthly meeting of the Board of Aldermen was held last night in the city court room; present, Mayor Ricaud, presiding, and Aldermen Post, Mallett,' Thomas, Fowler, Adrain. Nixon, Walker and Bell. ; Alderman Fishblate from the com mittee on streets. and wharves to whom was' referred the petition of citizens with regard to the Seacoast railroad, stated that he was unable to make full report in the absence of the city attor ney. The Mayor called attention to the failure of the Electric Light Company to light up early enough. Referred to Committee on Lights to report at the next meeting of the Board. Report of Dr. F. W. Potter, Superin tendent of Health, for October, was read and filed. He reported 34 deaths ess than in six months; advised that the pigeon nuisance roosting on roofs and spoiling -cistern water be abated; hog pens have been abated; he alluded to the. filth of the engine house yard, corner of Princess and Fourth streets in rainy weather, the lot ought to be paved cattle be penned there' Petition of T.

Referred to same committee. Alderman Post said he was requested J to call attention to the hardship on the police with regard to the present method of paying for uniforms. Instead of get ting $1.50 per day, according to the old method, they were paid $1.60, the ad ditional ten cents to go for uniforms, and they had drawn and spent the ten cents and he would like to see them re lieved. He then called on' Col. Hall, Chief Of Police, to make a statement of the facts. Col. Hall stated that the police form erly received $1.50 per day, and the city paid for the uniforms; now they received $1.60 per day, the additional ten cents to pay ior uniforms. This they had drawn and spent, and it would work a hard ship upon them to pay it all in a lump; thev would like for. a change back to $1.50 a day and let the city buy the uni forms, or let the clerk and treasurer' re turn the ten cents. Alderman Fishblate moved that the police be allowed four months to pay for. the uniforms in regular installments, which was seconded. Clerk Willson said he didn't think he had the right to retain the ten cents. Alderman Fishblate's resolution was then adopted. Alderman Bell wanted to know who was responsible for the imperfect drain age on the Seacoast railroad, and the stagnant green water at the corners of Orange, Dock and Eleventh streets. There was something said by Alderman Fowler about a petition for lights at the same place. The matters were re ferred to the Committees on Lights and on Streets and Wharves. The Board then adjourned. A Curious Caterpillar. A geutleman of this city Handed Dr. Thos. F. Wood a caterpillar for classifi cation, and not having the time to look into the matter Dr. Wood forwarded the specimen to the N. C. Agricultural Experiment Station. This is Dr. H B. Battle's, . the director's, reply "This very curious and rather uncom mon caterpillar is the larva of a small ish re-brown moth belonging to the same tribe as the silkworm moths. This species is a rather general feeder, but seems to prefer the mature leaves of the oak. In Florida it feeds upon the foli age of the orange. It has no economic significance, not being likely to increase. I enclose a rough drawing of moth, larva and cocoon natural size. It is a native species -and double brooded. Hibernates in cocoon under leaves and trash in woods." BY RIVER AND RAIL. - Beceipts of Naval Stores and Cotton ' , Yesterday.
