A French genius has struck on a
happy idea. He has constructed a

of the organ winds it up; plants it in

tortured inhabitant of the house

rushes out and . drops a piece of
money in the slot to stop it, when
the proprietor returns and moves it
to the next house, winds it up and
lets it run until the money comes.

Shelby Review: Year before last Mr.
J. L Price, of this county, hired a lot of
hands, planted considerable" cotton,
bought his supplies, raised six bales of
cotton and came out at the little end of
the horn. Last year he decreased the
acreage in cotton, increased that in corn,
and with the help of a ten year old girl.
he made two bales of cotton and five
hundred bushels of corn. -He has proven
to his satisfaction that the way to make
money in farming is to plant less cotton
and more corn. His crop of corn last
year was worth more than the six bales
of cotton he raised the previous year
and the cost of raisinc it was less than a
fifth. And besides he had two bales of
cotton as a surplus.
A FATAL FIRE.
Colored Woman anil Her Two Children
Burned to Death.
A colored woman and two children
were burned to death last Thursday
night near Harrell's Store, in Sampson
county. Capt. Ward, of the Black river
steamer W. T. Dazzett, which arrived
here yesterday, says the woman was era
ployed as a field hand' by Mr. J. F Cald
well. She and her two children, six and
eight years old, lived in a small house
just outside the village. About 11 o'clock
Thursday night the house was discov
ered to be in flames, and people who
were aroused and went to the place said
they could hear screams from the in
mates of the house, but were, unable to
render any assistance or to stop the pro
gress of the fire. After the house was
burned down the charred bones of the
woman and two children were found in
the ashes.

Rev. Dr. Wilson, former pastor of the
First Presbyterian Church of this city,

H. Robinson. Dr. Wilson received
many visitors yesterday. He had re
cently recovered from a severe illness
and is not yet fully restored to his ac
customed health and strength. Dr. Wil
son has a strong hold on the affections of
many in Wilmington of all classes and
all denominations who will be glad to
know that he contemplates visiting this
city some time next summer.

REYNARD RUN TO EARTH.
v -
A Glorious Chase of Forty Minutes by the
Pack of the Wilmington "Pox Club.
Mr. Field EditoRj': Perhaps there
are some of the old-time "sports" still
left who would like to
hear a word now
and then from the wi;
d woods and the
melodious music of twenty-five hounds.
If so,! "comrades," listen :
On Tuesday last I met at the kennel
of the "Wilmington Fox Club" at first
dawn of day solitude. Poor boys ! The
spring time with its sleepy mornings
has come and they cannot Wake. As
time was precious I did not wait for
them ' but let go the ''dogs of war." It
was a beautiful morning, the dew spark-
line upon the grass. As 1 reached the
open ground near Mineral Spring, it was
grand the Iresh air, the sweet perfume
of the yellow jessamine;, the pack then
bounding off on a hot trail caused tne to
halt in admiration and; wonder why any
one could be so indifferent as not to
grasp the opportunity and. enjoy these
earthly pleasures during our short pil
grimage through life. Without a
halt the trail was pushed to the
Tom! Eden branch, on the turnpike,
when the sweet mus'C of twenty-five
bounds . made it unmistakably plain to
an old hunter's eat- that Reynard was
'up. , Tney lea directly lor the bound.
Away they went, and away went "Dan
dy" and I; over the fences, ditches, logs
and bushes, we flev in pursuit. 'Twas
"Chilling the rocks and yelling again,
Close on the hounds the hunter cime.
They take up at a bay on the Mason-
boro turnpike, which was christened by
a young damsel several summers aeo
with the appellation of "Lake of the
Dismal Swamp. A thick undergrowth
about twenty feet wide surrounds this
lake, and in this the fox sought safety.
there is no animal that I know of that
has the sense of a lox. He can calculate
time and distance better than anv
human being. Not once in a hundred
is a fox caught going from one bay to
another. So, after circling around it
once, I was convinced by my knowledge
of the distance to another bay, that he
would never leave this one. bo, dis
mounting from "Dandy," and with
watch in hand, I timed them as they
would "swing around the circle, and
note the gradual gain on poor Reynard.
In about the fifth round the chase end
ed, and one more victory for the season
was added to the forty-odd for the
"Fox Club."
FUNERAL OF DR. MORAN.
Impressive Services Conducted by Dr.
Wilson. Dr. Deems and Dr. Swindell
Interment at Oakdale.
Funeral services over the remains of
the Rev. Dr. R. S. Moran were held yes
terday morning at 10 o'clock in Grace
M. E. Church. The Church was crowded
long before the services began. At the
hour appointed Rev. Dr. Deems and
Rev. Dr. Tos. R. Wilson entered the
Church arm in arm, and together
ascended to the pulpit. They were fol
lowed by Rev. Dr. Swindell, Rev. Mr.
Norman, Rev. Mr. Nash and other min
isters. The pulpit and other parts of
the church were appropriately draped
in emblems of mourning, and the casket
Containing the remains was covered
with floral tributes.
After an anthem by the choir, the
solemn services were opened by Dr.
Deems who read a passage from the
Scriptures. Dr. Wilson then addressed
the congregation and in the course of
his remarks said that some years ago
himself and . Dr. Moran had made an
agreement, the survivor to attend the
funeral of the other. Rev. Dr. Deems
followed Dr, Wflson in a short address
in eulogy of the deceased, and he in
turn was followed by Rev. Dr. Swin
dell. The service at the grave was
conducted, by Dr. Deems. While they
were covering the vault the-hymn "God
be with you till we meet again" was
sung. The benediction was pronounced
bv Dr. Wilson.
Accidentally Shot Himself. .
Police officer Kunold accidentally shot
himself yesterday evening about six
o'clock, but the wound, happily, is not
likely to give him serious trouble. The
officer was on duty in "Brooklyn," and
meeting officer Turlington at the corner
of Fourth and Brunswick streets, the
latter asked officer Kunold to give him
a pistol-cartridge. Having no loose car
tridges with him, officer Kunold, wish
ing to oblige. a brother officer, attempted
to extract one of the cartridges from his
own pistol, using his pocket-knife, but
while picking at the cartridge it ex
ploded. The ball struck officer Kunold
in the lelt leg above the knee and passed
through, making a flesh wound.
The injured man was attended by Dr.
Schonwald, and was then taken to his
home.
Off for, Bermuda.
The handsome steam yacht Oneida,
owned by Mr. E. C. Benedict, of New
York, took her departure yesterday for
Bermuda, after a visit of several weeks
at this port. Accompanying Mr. Bene
dict on the trip, are Mr. E. H. Booth
and Mr. Keep, of New York, and Mr.
B. G. Empie, of this city. The party
after visiting the Bermudas, will sail for
New York, expecting to reach there in
about ten days.
The Oneida left her anchorage at 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon, and steam
ed slowly down the river. A large num
ber of ladies and gentlemen, friends and
acquaintances of the gentlemen i on
board, gathered at the river side to wit
ness the departure and wave farewell to
the voyagersi
LIQUOR DEALER'S LIABILITY.
A Supreme Court Decision of Interest to
Saloon Keepers.
. The Supreme Court of North Carolina
rendered a decision in a 'whiskey" case
from Charlotte that is of interest.
The case .was tried in the Criminal
Court at Charlotte. - , t
It was proved that one of Mr. Kit
telle's clerks sold whiskey on Sunday
and to minors. Judge Meares ruled
that Mr. Kittelle was responsible for the
act of his clerk, although he had given
orders that no whiskey should be sold
on Sunday nor to minors. The charge
of Judge Meares was against Mr. Kit
telle and he was fined $50. His lawyers
took an appeal, and were confident that
Judge Meares' charging would be overruled,-
The decision was "no error," the
court sustaining Judge Meares.
The Supreme Court held that under
our statute which permits license to sell
liquors to be issued only to persons of
good moral character, that such li-
cvnse is a personal trust and the licensee
is indictable for sales to minors or on
Sundays whether made by him or his
clerks. It is held that the licensee is
held responsible . for the criminal
negligence in not preventing illegal
sales by clerks and that in employ
ing tnein tne licensee becomes guar
antor of their observance of the
law, and that if this were not so it would
be a virtual repeal of the license law,
since a licensee can employ as clerk one I
to whom the commissioners may have
refused license to retail as unfit for the
trust and if the employer is not respon
sible for such clerk the public receive no
protection from the commissioners hav
ing examined into the character of such
applicant and having refused him li
cense. The opinion is fortified by many
similar decisions cited from other States.
Wilmington Presbytery.
The Presbytery of Wilmington, in ses
sion at Burgaw this week, closed its ses
sions yesterday. Rev. Mr. McClure, of
St. Andrew's Church, was made Modera
tor. A pleasant and profitable meeting
was held. Delegates to the General As
sembly, at Hot Springs, Ark., were ap
pointed as follows: Rev. Peter Mcln-
tire, principal; Rev. P. H. Hoge, D. D.,
alternate; Ruling Elder I. R. Faison,
principal; W. H. Sprunt, alternate.

fruit in all stages of growth, and some of
the berries full ripe. After all the draw
