There is another blizzard on the rampage out West. They are hav ing a howling time in Kansas. If Mrs. Lease persists in keeping in the "middle of the road," she wiir have to wear rubber boots when . the thaw sets in. A New Jersey preacher has located Heaven in the star Alcyone. That is so far off that a great many peo ple will never getihere. Having done up the Hawaiian business as- far as he can, Mr. Harri son has gone to see how many Mary land ducks he can do up. That was an observant soap man who said he put his advertisements into newspapers, because "people who. do not read newspapers never wash." It is said that with the exception of the silver question, United States Senator elect Allen, of Nebraska, is with the Democrats and will be with them in the organization of the next Senate. The Democrats of the Ne braska Legislature know what they were doing when they voted for him.' Government scandals seem to be i the order of the day on the other side of the water. The -Panama Canal scandal was quickly followed by the Guelph fund scandal in Prus sia, the bank scandal in Italy, and now Russia trots , in with the dis covery that Government officials have got away with 5,000,000. The fact that cholera is reported in .Marseilles, St. Petersburg and Hamburg shows that the apprehen sions of the ravages of the scourge in the Spring and Summer are not un founded. It may not cross the ocean, but it is wisdom to be prepared for it if it does, and to put our cities into such condition as to prevent it from taking a foothold. T A colony js . being organized in Cincinnati to go to Nicaragua and engage in Agriculture. After raising some crops if they should conclude to raise a Jacket, start a revolution; bounce the President, and proclaim a provisional government there might be a chance to annex Nica ragua. ' . We are in receipt of the Daily Xews Almanac and Political Regis ter for 1893, issued by the Chicago Daily News. It is a book of 442 pages, in small but clearly printed type, packed with information on various topics and full of political tables, platforms, &c, valuable for ready reference. As a political fegf ister it.is about as complete as such a work could well be. '1 A singular spectacle was presented in Allentown, Pa., during the last coill spell. The rails were wet and a coal tram with 125 cars, met with an accident which brought it to a standstill. When ready to move the wheels were frozen fast to the rails, ; and the engine couldn't move it. A number of other trains followed, all of which got into the same predica ment, which continued for several tours, before the freeze blockade was raised. ; - : V VOL.

That's what it did with the Vienna baker who let a handkerchief collecting fad " take possession of him. When he first went into the business he paid from $20 to $25 for thosewthat. struck his'fancy, and soon paid him self out of cash. But this didn't dampen his ardor, for he then went to stealing, and went from that to jail. When his room was searched, an assortment of 1,434 handkerchiefs was found. J. C. Alverson, a tenor singer in a Louisville churchj was of an inquisi tive turn of mind, and liked to find out how much there was in the con tribution boxes. This wouldn't have been so bad if he hadn't contracted ihe habit of pocketing the contents. That's what got him into disrepute and also into jail. I The farmers of Illinois want good roads but they don't want to pay for them. At a Farmers' Institute re cently held at Clinton, in that State, resolutions were passed denouncing a proposed law which would levy a tax for macadamizing the roads. The St Louis Republic charitably remarks that "a man is not necessa rily totally depraved because he is a millionaire," We are glad to know this, because we would not like to have people look on us that way. It is said that when the Rajah of Lahore visits the World's Fair he will wear $10,000,000 worth of dia monds. If he does he had better be careful how he sloshes around Chi cago. : The Knoxville Tribune declares that "the preachers of this town should preach in favor of cleaner and better streets." This looks like a sweeping assertion. Texas proposes to take the horns at the World's Fair. She has sent a pair measuring nine feet, (not nine Chicago feet.) NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

WILMINGTON, PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS. Pertinent Paragraphs Pertaining Prinoi PaUy to People and Pointedly Printed. Mr. T.' N. Cooper, of Little River, S. C was in the city yesterday. Mr. bim Schloss .left for Fay etteyille on the steamer Cape Feqir yes terday. Mr. Baron D. Penton, formerly of this city but for two years past of Newark, N. T is in the city on a visit to his friends and relatives. Hon. A. M. Waddell has ac cepted the invitation of the Hesperian Literary Society ot Trinity College to deliver the annual address at the next "Commencement." Mr. A. J. JoTinson, of Taylors' Bridge, an old subscriber to the Daily Star, called to see us yesterday. A. J. has a very agreeable habit of bringing the names and money of new sub scribers. Messrs. J. F. Green, Lillington; Jno. S. Terrell. Raleigh; J no. H. Oates, Clinton; W. J. Ridge. Greensboro; Kelly E. Teny. Stella; J. R. Bannerman, Pender county, were among the arrivals in the city yesterday. I Capt. C. Schwarz, of Savannah, formerly of this city, spent a few hours here yesterday and left on the 8 p.m. Northern train for New York, whence he goes to Havre. . Paris, and Antwerp on business. He expects to return about April 15th. Mr. John D. Bellamy, Jr., one of the most daring equestrians in the State, has been appointed one of the marshals for inauguration day. He has hired an untamed broncho which he will ride to the top of the Washington monument and from its lofty apex salute the new President of the United States. A Northern Sportsman. Mr. Fred A. Taft, brother of Capt. Walter Taft, of this city, and a thorough sportsman, has been spending several weeks here very pleasantly. The Amer ican Field prints the following from Mr. Taft: i We have been having severe weather here for a month, with but little sno. There has been fine woodcock shooting, the springy, swampy and low, dry ridgy grounds making a fine Winter resort for these birds. Bags of from .fifteen to twenty-five birds to a. gun are common, two guns getting forty-five in four hours. There -are a great many ducks here, principally mallards, black ducks, butter balls and teal. No canvas-back or red heads. Coons, 'possums, deer and bears are found in plenty. This is a place little known or visited by Northern sportsmen. If I were a few years younger and had my former good legs, I could get my fill of sport here. I am down here to get away from the cold weather in the North, but I am in no condition to enjoy the surroundings. Fred A. Taft. Ho. Twenty-Three Late. No. 23, the early A. C. L. train from the North, did not reach here until this morning in consequence of an accident on the Washington Southern road, north ot Washington City. With its usual re gard for the public interests, the Atlantic Coast Line people made up a special at Richmond, which came through on time. There was no detention of 27, which ar rived here on schedule time. Bill Arp. The people of Wilmington are to have on next Monday night probably their last opportunity of hearing the famous Southern humorist. Bill Arp. He will spend but one week in the Old North State,' and then return to Texas, where he is a great favorite. RAILROAD "NOTES. Savannah News: The new pas senger trains now being fitted up by the Central road for the fast schedule will surpass anything ever put on the track in this part of the country. The Cen tral has taken its newest passenger coaches and is now fitting them up in elegant style for the "Nancy j Hanks" schedule. There are to be four cars in each train and three trains in all. The coaches are to be painted a royal blue and trimmed rn gilt. On both sides and at each end of the coaches will be a splendid likeness of the original Nancy Hanks, she of the 2.05 gait, done in gilt. These trains will be put on next Sunday and will run daily, both to and from At lanta. In the "car coupler bill," as amended and pass;d by the Senate, it is provided that from January 1, 1898, it shall be un lawful for railroads , engaged in inter State commerce to nre locomotives not equipped with a power driving wheel and brake and appliances for operating the train brakes system or to run trains that have not a sufficient number of cars so equipped with power or train brakes that the engineers can control their speed without requiring brakemen to use the common hand brake Railroads are also prohibited from using any car not equipped with automatic couplers, which can be uncoupled without the necessity of men going between the ends of the cars. After Jury 1. 1895, it shall be unlawful for railroad companies to use any car in inter-State commerce that does not have secure grab irons on the ends and sides of each car for greater security to men in coupling; and un coupling cars. The law does not apply to any railroad operating wholly within one State. . N. C FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1893J . . TRAINING FOR THE RING. Jim Hall's Training and Expectations-He " Is Modest Bat Confident. The following from Lakewood, New Jersey, where Hall has bis training quarters, is given for the benefit of those who abhor prize fighters, but who love to read about them: ' 7 If physical condition and confidence can be taken as a criterion of a pugilist's capabilities, Jim Hall should certainly win a victory on March 6, when he and Bob Fitzsimmons will contend before the'Crescent City Athletic Club at New Orleans for the extraordinarily large purse of $40,000, No man has ever en tered the ring, it is safe to say, with more hopes of defeating his opponent than Jim Hall on the night of the fight. "If I did not think there was a fighting chance with the man, I would not be foolish enough to enter the ring with the oian," said. Hall to-day. "I think I can beat Fitzsimmons, and if I don't I presume he will, anyway, have a vivid remembrance when it is all over that he has gone up against something akin to a cyclone." . 7 .. ' John Kline, of Wisconsin, who has the reputation of never training a loser and who trained such men as lack Mc Auliffe, Ike Weir and Tommy Warreni is supervising Hall's training. Hall, he says, is the most unique character, for training he ever had charge of. He leaves his cottage at 6 o'clock every morning, accompanied ! by Kline, and takes a gentle spin of several miles. Then he walks rapidly to his training quarters, which are about a half mile distant from the cottage and begins hard work at 7 o'clock. After using the d urn bells and Indian clubs, Hall stands up to his full height and has Kline pound bim in the stomach until ex haustion compels him to desist. When this work is finished Hall : adjusts a heavy strap about his forehead and lifts two dumbells, each weighing 40 pounds, up and down several times. He takes a hearty dinner at 2 o'clock and in the afternoon he goes skating and pun ches the ball. Sometimes, too, Hall and Kline wrestle, but Hall has not yet ac complished the feat of downing his trainer. Hall now tips the beam at 168 pounds. If he should lose this fight Hall says he can yet Ynake considerable money by whipping at least a dozen men of bis weight. For each fight he is sure of get ting $4,000 or $5,000 purse, Should he win.the fight he will challenge Corbett, Mitchell or Jackson for the heavyweight championship of the wot Id. - Wilmington and Southport Mail. Postmaster French has been notified that the new contract for carrying the mail, by steamer, between Wilmington and Southport has been awarded to Henry O. Roop. Of Carrollton, Georgia, at $1,327.00 per year. But the trouble is that Henry has no boat. Of course, Mr. 0 Roop knows this as well at the Star does, but he expects to be able to' sub-let his contract and make a hundred dollars "or such a matter" by the trade. : But Harry will make a dead failure on that line and the contract will be made with the South port Steamboat Company. The system of letting mail contracts is wrong. No man should be given a con tract unless be can satisfy the Depart ment that he has the necessary facilities for complying with the terms of the con tract himself. "Straw-bidding" and sub letting should be abolished,, and it is hoped that neither will be countenanced by the new administration. THE WEATHER. U. S.

"The Iiand of Flowera." . Mr. W. A. Riach, accompanied by Mrs. Riach, has returned from a visit to Florida. After spending several days on business in St. Augustine, he took a trip over the St. Augustine! Jacksonville and Indian River Railroad to its terminus, where he found the most beautiful coun try he had ever seen. He says if he were a young man (which he "haint") he would buy an orange grove in that sec tion and settle down for life. As the auditor ; is "somewhat of a" truck farmer "himself," he knows where both lucre and pleasure are to be found. Heartless Deviltry. j - A gang of worthless boys who were amusing themselves shooting Flobert rifles yesterday afternoon, wound-up their sport by killing a pet cat belonging to a young lady residing on Fifth street. They alarmed the neighborhood to such an extent that a lady threatened to send for a policeman. There is an ordinance covering this case, but so long as it is not enforced the deviltry wijlgo on. The boys referred to live on Market street. They are Mspotted," and a repetition of their offence will result in their arrest. DEMOCRATIC CLUB.

Whitted. 4 Most of the officers and charter mem bers paid their dues and signed the con stitution and by-laws. ' A collection was taken up to pay for the use of the hall for this, meeting, and as the amount was not.sufficient to meet this and other contingent expenses, C. W, Kunold contributed $1.50 to make up the balance. A vote of j thanks was tendered Mr. Kunold for his generosity. . Several applications for membership were filed. " - 'i On motion, the president appointed a committee on hall properties, consisting of S. W. Holden and J.! V. Branch. The appointment of other ;committees was deferred until the next meeting. On motion, the secretary was author ized to have printed three hundred cer tificates of membership. I The President announced that the purposes of this club were in no manner proscriptive, but were intended to sub serve the interests of a large class within the ranks of the Democracy. All per sons interested in the principles, of the club as laid down in the platform were in vited to join the club, but it was neces sary , for applications ,. for member ship to be made in writing' so the po litical standing of the applicant can be inquired into with a view to keep out persons who are. not of the straighout sort. ' ;, ! The club adjourned to meet on the first Wednesday in March!, j The Star regrets that the crowded condition of its columns this morning renders it impossible to print the consti tution and by-laws of the club. OPERA HOUSE . "The Colonel" to be With us Again. At the Opera House Inext Monday night, Feb. 20th, will be seen the very pleasing Comedy. "The Cjolnel." This company was here last September and is very pleasantly remembered ;by all who saw it. In speaking of the performance the Wilmington Star of Sept, 15th said That brilliant production, The Colonel, was presented House last night to a fair tive audience. at the Opera and apprecia- The play is a comedy in three , acts. adapted from the German by Oscar P. Sisson, and is one of high standard. The company that produces it is a strong one, and it is hard to say ( what member is deserving of the most praise The audience was well pleased, as was enyinced by the rapturous and constant applause which greeted the performance from beginning to end. However, it is sufficient to say that the company sus tained its well won reputation, and will be greeted by a full house whenever they hold down the boards in Wilmington. The box-sheet will be open to-morrow night. ; .: . - S. P. C. A. .

WHOLE NO. 8,056 OPERA HOUSE. Dr. Jos. Eddy "The Spiritualizer." An immense audience assembled at the Opera House last night to see Dr. Jos. Eddy demonstrate his"spirit powers in the light." Dr. Eddy and his assis tant made many experiments which were mysterious and very entertaining. Upon invitation Messrs F. Richter, Dr. S. P. Wright, Du Brutz Cutlarand T. W. Clawson went upon the stage to scrutinize'and assist in the experiments. - The Doctor made a table rise and float in the air with all the above gentlemen trying to hold it down. He performed many strange tricks with his hands, feet and head tied hard and fast by the said gentlemen; one of them being the taking off of Mr. Cutlar's coat and putting it on himself, and then removing it after it had been sewed fast on him. All of the tricks were wonderful, and none of the gentlemen on the stage could detect the power by which they were done. The audience was highly entertained for about two hours, and all seemed to be well pleased. . THE MAILS. . Oa and after Sunday, January 1, 1893, the Mails at the Wilmington, N.
