Emin Pasha reports that he has discovered a new river in Africa" flowing into Lake Albert Edward Xvanza. . A Boston paper propounds the -following conundrum: "What is the difference between stealing and rehy- pothecation ?" They are spelled dif ferently. Gov. Buchanan, of Tennessee, has concluded that the recaptured con victs must be returned to the coal mines if it takes the last able-bodied man in the State, including the con victs,'to get 'em there. Osmaa Digna, who has been killed a number of times in the past eight or ten years, is now reported at the head of an army of Arabs on th'e upper Ts'ile. Osman is a man who evidently does not like to stay dead. The experts who have examined the bram of the man who decapi tated himself in the effort to blow up Russell Sage have come to the conclusion that he was insane for some time previous to his death. That's the time most men generally become insane. The Paris thief is no slouch. A gang of them not only succeeded in robbing a house a few nights ago, but took the house to pieces and stole that too, and so quietly that they disturbed neither the slum bers of the police nor of the people in the neighborhood. A Wyoming ranch man is so anx ious for a wife that he advertises for one and is not particular about her looks, her age, her money, or her skill with the skillet, as he consider able of an artist in the cooking line himself. He only wants some one to cheer him up and divide the solitude with him as it were. ' It looks as if President Harrison may lose that Cape May cottage which was presented to him. When it was presented there was a mort gage on the lot, which has not been cancelled. The donor has since be come bankrupt, and unless Mr. Har rison satisfies the mortgage the cot tage must go under the sheriff's hammer to pay up claims. A New York paper has come to the conclusion that "all the Speaker of the House of Representatives needs is a profound knowledge of the rules, inflexible integrity, large public experience, quickness, cour tesy, courage, good humor, and a tranquil and judicial" temperament." Tom Reed got along on a good deal less than that. There was another blackthorn and paving stone discussion in . Clare county, Ireland, Tuesday, between the McCarthyites and Parnellites, in which Mr. Dillon caught a stone on the face caught it on the fly, as it Were. We don't know of any country where the fool killer could be better employed for about ninety days than in Ireland. VOL. XLIX.-NO. 7 NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. Munson & Co. Don't forget. W.

Is This a Fraud P Several persons residing in the east- ern portion of the city think they have been victimized lor small amounts oy a pair of sharpers, who were ostensibly engaged in the business of making en larged copies of photographs, etc. They gave printed receipts, of which the fol lowing is the substance : This Ticket Entitles You to a Fine Crayon Portrait Free. The Pennsylvania Portrait and En larging Company, No. 139 Main Street, (up stairs), Norfolk, Va., hereby agrees to give you a fine hand-finished Crayon or India Ink Portrait, enlarged from any small picture which you may present, of same size and quality exhibited by our agents, or at our store, absolutely free, upon the payment of 50 cents for this ticket, to our agents.

The door of Room No. 3, Strauss bulding, Second street, has been closed for several days and a notice posted out side says:" Will open Monday, the 14th." But "Mondav. the 14th," has come and gone and no one has yet appeared to dear up the mystery. "Wandering Waifa. Three little children were lost in the streets of Wilmington yesterday, but happily before nightfall each was restor ed to its anxious parents. A child of Mr. Winner, the watch-maker, on Front street, was first reported lost and was subsequently found in the neighbor hood of the Wilmington, Onslow and East Carolina Railroad depot. Next the, little three-year-old child of Mr. Lee, Fourth and Church streets, wandered off, and was found some time the city by police afterwards down in officer Sneeden. The third was the young son of Mr. King, living in the country, who left the boy at a cart house over the railroad, and when he returned from a visit down town found that the boy had disappeared. hi WILMINGTON, LOCAL, DOTS. Items of Interest Gathered Here and There nd Briefly Noted. Police officers report the city I never in a more orderly condition than at present. It looks like there is money in peanuts bought at present prices and held a few months. . The apple crop was a'large one, but -those that retail at 2 cents each are not of that variety. The-Weather Bureau's predic tion of cool weather by Thursday even ing was fully verified, the temperature falling about 24 degrees during the day. The Tyrolese Carnival extend ed its joys and sweets as far as the Star office last night in the form of ice-cream and cake of surpassing richness and flavor. Chas. Burnett, colored, charged with assault and battery, was tried and found guilty in Justice Bunting's court yesterday, but judgment was suspended on payment of costs. Rev. T. A. B. Scherer, the Lu theran missionary in Spain, will preach in the Lutheran Church both Sunday morning and at night.. The services will be in English. There have been no very heavy investments in Wilmington real estate for - some time, but the demand will be here before very long; and then some people will be astonished. The Childs prohibition bill, which has passed the lower House of the South Carolina Legislature, and which has excited much interest in Wil mington, has been reported unfavorably by the Judiciary Committee of the Sen ate. " A new river steamboat is to be launched to-day at the mouth of Moore's Creek, on Black river. Preparations have been made tor a large number of visitors to witness the launching, and an address will be delivered. .The new boat will take the place ol the steamer Delta on the Black river route. .

R. to Wilmington, Carolina Beach, etc., from points along the line of the road as far West as Climax. The train is due here at 7:30 in the morning and will leave on the return trip at 5:30 in the evening. This will give the ex cursionists a day in the iCity with full opportunity to make purchases, visit the seaside, etc. Christmas Notes. There were some evidences of the Christmas season observable yesterday afternoon. The weather was cool, clear and bracing, the streets and stores were gay with feminine smiles and attire; and even the boys are Degmning 10 eiiuic jewelry, albums and chewing gum with an eye and a tooth to business.- Trade may not be so good as last year, but you may bet on a "Merry Christmas" anyhow. N. C, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1891. TYROLESE CARNIVAL. Second Night and Conclusion of a Most Enjoyable Entertainment. The second night of the Tyrolese Carnival was even erander and more successful than the first night. There were many additions to the decorations. The two nights, taken together or sepa rately, were a success, both financially and socially. The following named ladies took part in last night's concert. The singing, by the way, was exceptionally fine, as was the instrumental music, and several of the songs were loudly encored. The Gypsy Cantata Mrs. H. D. Burkheimer and twelve young misses. Female Quartette, by the Misses Minnie. Schwarz, E. Bissinger, Kate Stolter and Maggie W. Peschau. Vocal Solo Tyrolese Airs Miss Minnie Schwarz. Piano Duet A. P. Adrian and Miss E. C. Adrian. Tyrolese Child Song Little Miss Hannah Schwarz. Haydn's Toy Symphony By Miss Schwarz's Female Orchestra, assisted by four young gentlemen. Vocal Solo Miss Annie Stolter. Female Quartette The Misses Annie and Kate Stolter, E. Bissinger and M. W. Peschau. A number of fine selections by the Germania Cornet Band. The Tyrolese or female orchestra con sists of the following yonng ladies and they played their part as follows : Bird Imitations Soprano Cuckoo, Miss E. Bissinger; Alto Cuckoo, Miss Kate Stolter; Nightingale, Miss Maggie Peschau; Quail or German Wachtl, Miss A. Ulrich, Instrument Imitations Triangle,Miss Annie Stolter; Chimes, Miss Mamie Schulken; Rattle, Miss Lizzie Otten; Trumpet-player, Miss L. Peschau; Piano Accompanyist, Miss Lliza C Adrian; Directress, Miss Minnie bchwarz. The ladies were assisted by Messrs. J. Schwarz and Wm. Schmidt on the vio lin, J. H. Rehder on the cornet, and E. Schulken on the drum. One of the attractions which excited a great deal of interest was the voting for the handsomest baby. The prizes were two very large and handsome dolls one dressed in a silk wedding dress, which was won by Mrs. Dudley Burk- hiemer's little baby, and the second prize by Mrs. C. Polvogt's. Mr. M. J. Dinglehoef offered two prizes one to the lady making the best shot at the shooting gallery, and the other to the gentleman making the best shot. The lady's present, a very hand some silver card receiver and a tripod, was won by Mrs. J. G. L, Gieschen. The silver drinking cup and case was won by Mr. J. G. L. Gieschen. Another prize was a gold-lined kettle, awarded to Mr. Geo. Heyer for best markmanship. After the presentation of prizes the much enjoyable carnival closed, but to give a great many persons an opportu nity to attend, who up to this time have been unable to do so, the committee has decided to repeat the concert this afternoon, from 3 to 5 o'clock. The price of admission has been reduced one-half, and corresponding reductions will be made in other prices. Some very fine music may be expected. IN NEED OF LABOR. Oebraia Turpentine Men Seeking Xiow Bates for North Carolina Help. The naval stores men of Georgia are in correspondence with the officials of the railroads leading into Savannah, says the News of that city, in the inter est of securing a special rate for turpen tine hands coming south from Decem ber to March. Owing to the enforce ment of the North Carolina law against soliciting labor emigration the naval stores men will not be able to go to Norjh Carolina to brine downtheir own labor after the holidays, as they have done heretolore. As there will be no difficu'ty about se curing laborers if the opportunity is of fered the negroes to come, the naval stores men think that if the railroads will give them a verv low rate they can secure all the labor needed. There is no doubt the naval stores men will be in need of more labor than they will be able to secure if they can not manage to import labor from North Carolina. The South Carolina Legisla ture is now considering the passage of a labor law similar to that passed by the North Carolina Legislature with the. same end in view, to prevent coming in to the State and carrying off the labor. The naval stores men may be com pelled to cut down their operations for next year. More Cases Against John C. Davis. Up to last night five warrants in all had been issued against John C. Davis, now in the county v jail awaiting a hear ing next Tuesday on the first warrant, charging him with obtaining money on false pretences. The other four, issued by Justice R. H. Bunting, were served on the prisoner yesterday by the sheriff. The complainants in these cases are Mrs. Emily J. tannings two cases in both of which false pretence is charged, and Mrs.- Nancy Dixon three cases charging defendant, John C. Davis, with false pretence, forgery and perjury. Humors Exploded. U. b. District Attorney Cook left last hevening for Columbus county. He in- lormea a otak representative wuu wet him yesterday and found him a very pleasant gentleman, that the rumors connecting him in any way with the First National Bank, on his recent visits here, were without foundation in fact. COTTON FACTS AND FIGURES. -t Spot cotton quiet in New York; middling uplands 7 15-16c. Net receipts of cotton at all U. b. ports yesterday, 48,308 bales. - Middling cotton is quoted dull at 7Jc; quotations same date last year, 8c. Wilmington's receipts of cotton yesterday 1,659 bales; receipts same day last year, 429. Futures closed easy and lower in New York. December opened at 7.57, and closed, 7.51; January 7.68, and closed, 7.61; February 7.85, and closed, 7.77; March 8.01, and closed, 7.92. Augusta Chronicle : The fallacy of the one-crop idea has never before been so forcibly impressed upon the farmers of the South as it has this year. From all sections come reports of a prosper ous year, abundant crops and no scar city of money. The South alone suffers for want ot money. 1 he enormous cot ton crops of the past years have ex ceeded the 'demand, and the price has fallen disastrously low. In contrast to the low price of this staple is the in crease in the cost of food products, and the Southern farmer is to-day paying more for his provisions than his cotton is bringing him. instead ot money . - ... t -i coming into tnis section ior me pro ducts of our farms the people are pay ing out more than they make in order to ltve. Ihis is tne situation in tne States that are richest in natural re sources and agricultural lands. The Liverpool Post, after referring to increased crop estimates, says : "Nothing remains, therefore, but to wait the developments of the crop movements. In the meantime those who are interested in a further decline take good care that the market is well posted, not only in what is taking place, but in what is likely to take place, and they are not very scrupulous as to the means adopted for giving influence and currency to their advices. Aside, however, from the speculative reports calculated by parties who have an axe to grind, the known facts ot the situation are not of an exhilarating char acter. The actual movements ot tne crop are shaking faith in all estimates under 8,000,000 bales, and (in tne words of the oit-repeated formula) there will be no change of opinion on this point until the deliveries from the plantations begin to shrink. It is true that prices are very low, but low prices do not or themselves encourage buyers ; on the contrary, they are rather apt to encour age sellers, and it may be taken for granted that, in accordance with all pre vious experience, buyers will not be come eager operators until they are strongly of the opinion that the article they want to purchase is about to ad vance in price. RAILROAD NOTES. The Corre de San Luis is responsi ble for the following: A young Ameri can lady, whose husband was killed in a railroad accident and who had been in demnified by the company in the sum of $10,000 lor the loss, afterward learning that a passenger who had lost a leg in the same wreck was paid $20, 000. went to the company to complain ol the injustice done her in the settle ment. "How is it," she asked, "that you pay $20,000 for the loss of a leg and . have only given me $10,000 for the loss of my husband ?" "Madam," respond ed the polite official, "the reason is very simple; $20,000 would not provide the poor fellow with a new leg, whereas with $10,000 you can obtain a new husband whenever so desiring, and he may be an improvement on the one lost." The young woman blushed furiously and re tired, well pleased with the explana tion. Savannah News: One hundred em ployes of the Central Railroad shops were discharged last night. The dis charges were made in accordance with instructions from the headquarters of the Richmond and Danville system, or dering a reduction of 25 percent, in the shop v employes of the entire system. Savannah mechanics are, therefore, not the only sufferers. Wherever the Rich mond and Danville has shops 25 per cent, of the working force was cut off ast night. The discharges here were in the machine shop, blacksmith shop, car shops of the road. The list of men who .-ioin ohi-r anrt tho nthcr sma ler naa to go oy me uuctru was mauc yesterday, and Master Mechanic Antz had them notified verbally in the afternoon. This morning the discharg ed employes will receive their checks, 1 ne cut anects mecnanics earning irum $3 per day down, and Mr. Antz said $2 would be a lair average to put aown ior the wages. This is a loss to Savannah's workmen of 8300 a dav $i,xuu per week. "Is the cut necessitated by laclc of work?" Mr. Antz was asked. "No; it is for the purpose of cutting down ex penses. Still, at this season of the year we can manage to get along and do the work with 300 men, because all the stock is in fairlv cood condition. Of course, the same amount of work canT not be done as with the full force, but I hope the cut is only temporary. We all feel sore over the situation, from the general manager down, but of course we have to obey orders." The wholesale discharge of the mechanics is a hardship just at this time of the year, in the midst of the holiday season, when the men were least expecting it. The re duction is in the line of the retrench ment by the Richmond and Danville, management. Yesterday's "W earner. The records of the Weather Bu reau give the following report ol the range of temperature, etc., yesterday: At 8 a. m., 45"; 8 p. m., 44"; maximum temperature, 54; minimum, 44; aver age 40. Prevailing wind, north. Total rainfall .00. WHOLE NO. 7,785 Tne Cat Out. The Charlotte Chronicle of yesterday has an article headed "Let There be a Strong Kick. Railroad Changes that Will Greatly Inconvenience our People." It refers to a contemplated change of schedule on the Carolina Central Rail road. The Star knew all about it, but was requested to defer any comment, as the change might not be made after ma turer consideration, j Our contemporary "at the other end of the avenue" is as-, sured that if the proposed changes are made all the patent kickers down this way will ioin it in the fight, and if nec essary forty thousand Kentucky mules will be pressed into service for the war. It is hoped that old Aunt S. A. L. will put on her "thinking cap" again. The Orange Crop. The Savannah News says the prospect for cheap oranges is very good just now. The fruit dealers report the fruit selling ver low, with a big crop to be disposed of. Oranges . are now bringing from $1.25 to $2.00 a box at retail, which is unusually low. One of the reasons given for the low prices is that last year Northern and Western buyers went heavily into the Florida market, buying the fruit in the fields and running the prices up on each other. I he consequence was that they lost thousands of dollars, and this year they have held off. A leading fruit dealer said yesterday that the orange growers would not realize an average of 75 cents a box for their oranges this season. The First National Bank. There have been no .recent develop ments as to the status of affairs at the First National Bank of Wilmington, wlflth since its suspension has been in the hands of Mr. Alden, bank examiner, But last night an Associated Press dis patch was received from Washington, D. C, which says : "The-Comptroller of the Currency to day received a telegram from the exam iner in charge of the First National Bank of Wilmington, N. C, saying that the bank is practically insolvent, and suggesting the appointment of a receiver to wind up its affairs. The Comptrol ler will appoint a receiver in a few days probably to-morrow. .
