The wife of James G. Blame, Jr., has filed a motion in the " court at Dead wood, S. D., for alimony and attorney's fees. James Jr. objects to paying alimony or any other money as he says he finds it pretty hard scratching to get money enough to take care of himself. John I. Stapler,; of Trenton, N. J., amassed a fortune of 150,000 making crackers. He had lived plainly, but concluded he would put on more style andv built a handsome resi dence. The style was too much for him. He got an idea into his head that it woura bring him to poverty. This thought was too much for him, and he went out and shot himself in the head. According-to the latest reports from Japan the mortality and de struction to property by the recent earthquake were fearful. It is esti mated that 7,560 persons were killed, 10,120 injured, 440,000 rendered homeless and destitute, 89,630 build ings being totally destroyed and 28,625 partially demolished. And yet the people who escaped will build their houses again right on the same spot. There has been very little emigra tion from Japan, but since the Ma kado has permitted his subjects to emigrate, about 100,000 have sought homes in other countries. There are about 20,000 in the Sandwich Islands, and a good many in Australia. There are about 2,000 in California, where they are increasing pretty rapidly. But they are superior to the Chinese, inoffensive and industrious, and there is little objection to them. Justice, if that's what they call it, takes a pretty wide range in the State of New Jersey, when a two- year old child can be arrested for larceny, an instance of which occur red last week. A woman who had a spite against her neighbor had the child arrested. The little thing peeped over the rail and said "good morning" to the Judge. He heard the complaint, lectured the woman, fined the little tot a kiss, which he collected right there, and sent her home. . It seems according to the Geodetic Survey that Ohio is really entitled to a long,triangular strip on the bor der of Indiana, embracing about. 100 square miles and thus by a sweep of the surveyor's chain a whole lot of Hoosiers are suddenly converted into Buckeye people. If this had been discovered years ago lots of these border people might have been feed ing at the public crib in Wash ington. Chicago is so anxious to get rid of the English sparrow, that she is paying two cents a head for them. One fellow brought in 6,000 heads, having killed that many birds with poisoned wheat. Another chap brought in 197 b'rds and the clerk told him to wring off the heads, and he might dispose of the birds. He took the hint and came in later in the day with a broad grin, chuckling over the $13 net cash which he had raked in for 197 headless sparrows which he had sold for "reed" birds. 1 VOL. XLIX.--NO. 65. Bon ton London is agog over a divorce suit now being tried, in which the wife of Earl Russell sues for a divorce on the ground of cru elty and general meanness' of her liege lord. He denies the allega tions of the female alligator who, according to his testimony, called him hard names, threw soap-dishes at him, boxed .his ears, chased him around the house with a poker and made it exceedingly hot for the poor ran. And these, are British nabobs who ar,e now amusing Lon don with the recital of the monkey and parrot time they have had at home. - We owe the shade of Dom Pedro an apology for making him the un crowned Emperor ot Peru instead of Brazil. In perusing the proof we overlooked the mislocation. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. R. L. Harris Undertaker. Brown & Roddick Carpeting. MUNSON& Co. We haye bargains. Jas. D.

An Interesting Service. Dr. C. Durham, the Secretary of the State Mission Board of the Baptists, spoke Sunday morning at the First Baptist church on the Cuban Mission. He gave most entertaining information as to the island of' Cuba; the character of the climate, people, religion, &c. For instance, he said the island was 700 miles long, and - from 75 to 150 miles wide, had a range of mountains 500 miles long, its climate was never hotter than 80 nor cooler than 60 degrees. It is exceedingly fertile has only, half as large an area of land as North Carolina, but about twice as many people, who are fearfully oppressed by Spain. They pay to the mother country from $22,000,000 to $30,000,000 of taxes every year, besides supporting their own gov ernment ; and he further stated, that from 60 to 80 per cent, of the people would vote for annexation to the Unl ted States if they had a chance. The Baptist Mission began there in 1886 A. J. Diaz, a Captain in the rebel army, to escape capture by the Spaniards, cast himself into the sea, and floated three days and nights on a board; was -picked up by an American vessel and carried to New York, where he was converted, joined a Baptist Church and returning to Cuba, began to preach and practice medicine. He was a great sue cess from the start, being a man of fine character, great learning and moving eloquence, and as a native did not labor under the disadvantage of having to learn the language and the customs of the people. He has gathered into churches about 2.000 members, and as many children in Sabbath and day schools, and all his fellow pastors are natiyes of the island. A theatre, costing $60,000, had been bought jn the very centre of the city as a church. with stores and residences which will Tent . for two tnousana aouars, an under one roof, and it was to pay for this Havana church that Dr. Durham was pleading. North Carolina was asked to give 255.000 and the Eastern Association $500. Dr. Durham spoke "on the same sub ject at night to the Brooklyn Baptist church, and at both meetings liberal collections were raised. At night in the same church, Rev. F. T. Wooten, who was once a member of this church, filled the pulpit. Assignment. E. L. & J.H. Hinton made an assign- ment yesterday to Thos. W.

A Star reporter continued his inter views, yesterday, with prominent busi ness men of the city, to ascertain their opinions of Welcome Week, what sort of a display was made, and the effect on the commercial interests of the cuy, present and prospective. Adrian & Vollers, wholesale grocers and commission' merchants, think it was a success and beneficial to the trade of the city. The trades parade was good, of course we ought to have another in 1892, but the parade should begin at 4 p. m. , N I Alderman & Flanner, wholesale and retail hardware, pronounce the enter prise a hugesuccess; business was in creased, new trade was made for the fu ture. We must have another and a bet ter Welcome next year, though this was very good. Hall & Pearsall, wholesale grocers and commission merchants, believe it was beneficial in its results; the money in vested was well expended. Trade was attracted here that would probably have gone elsewhere. 'The display was handsome; they are satisfied with their business during the week and want an other W. W. Alex. Sprunt & Son are impressed that the week was exceptionally bene ficial to retailers. People were drawn from a distance; thereby enlarging the scope of the city's trade and this was a clear gain. Certainly we must have an other and another. They are all help and no hurt. The display was fine. Mr. J. R. Kenly, General Manager of the Atlantic Coast Line, a retiring man and not at all given to exaggeration, thinks the trades display not only ex ceedingly creditable, but the best he has seen, and he has witnessed many. The good results are not only percepti ble now, but will be felt-hereafter most beneficially. It drew strangers to the city who appreciated the free entertain ment, left with a good impression, and will revisit us. It was a thorough suc cess to the business interests, and should be repeated. Mr. W. A. Riach, General Auditor of the A. C. L., a most genial gentleman, and cautious in all his statements, from reports given him by business men concluded that business interests were very much benefitted; the trades display and all , entertainments were of a high character. The business of the city must have been largely and widely extended. It ought to be held again and at night, and better illumination should be provided. i Mr. Wm. Moncure, General Superin tendent of the Carolina Central Rail road, being absent from the city, Mr. W. F. Williams, train master, was found in his office and receive(Tthe reporter with the courtesy so habitual with him. He believes strongly that the trade of the city was vastly improved in many particulars and many a dollar was left here on account of the free and welcome show. Its future benefits could scarcely be over estimated and would be far reaching. The display was splendid and, by all means, we must give an other. Mr. T. C James, Agent of the C. F. & Y. V. R. R was cordial and gave it as his firm opinion that every interest in the city was benefitted. The display was most creditable and should be a matter of pride to all residents. More people would have come but for a report that somehow spread in the country, that the bank failure had broken the Welcome up. It should be repeated. Mr. J. W. Martenis, General Passen ger Agent of the.W., O. & E. C. R. R., assured the reporter in a pleasant and decided manner that he was a whole' souled W. W. man. He thought great good had been accomplished in securing new trade. The business of the city could not be better advertised. The ex hibition wes capital, it woouid never do to let the Welcome Week go down. Worth or Worth, wholesale grocers and commission merchants, felt sure it was a pleasant and profitable week for all. Many agreeable old acquaintances and new ones, were entertained by the city s welcome gut. lhe display was admirable, and the managers deserve great credit. It was beneficial to the city in many ways, and ought to be -re peated. Robert Morrison Dead. Mr. Robert Morrison, a prominent business man of this city, died suddenly at his residence Sunday afternoon at 8.30, in the 68th year of his age, of heart disease. He had not been in robust health for some time, but his death was unexpect ed, as he had not been complaining in a way to produce seribus fears hence his death was a great shock to his fam ily and the community. A native of Philadelphia, he had been residing in this city for forty years, and was one cf the firm of Fowler & Morrison. He leaves a widow and a grown son, Mr. W. R. Morrison, who feel poignant ly the grief arising from the lossota kind, affectionate husband and father. He was a member of. St. John's Episco pal Church, and hisf uneral will take place to-day. tar WHOLE NO. 7,776 BY RIVER AND RAIL. Beoeipts of Naval Stores and Cotton Yesterday. ' Wilmington, Columbia & Augusta R.

Fire in Brunswick. The barn of Mr. W. M. Hawkins with Ins rice crop, most of which was thfesh- ed.m Brunswick county, about six miles below the city was totally destroyed by fire Saturday night.
