A report comes from Kansas that a prominent populist has become in sane. It would be still more remark able if it were discovered that one of them had become sane. The people who propose cele brating in 1900, the beginning of the 20th century of Christianity, are grabbing time by the forelock as it were, and getting in a year ahead. The New York Press, Rep., says what this country wants is one hour of John Sherman. This country has had about thirty yeais of John Sher man, and that's what's the matter with her. A single woman in Kansas has written an article for a Kansas paper, on "How to be Happy, Though Married." There is not a "single" woman in Kansas that knows any thing about it. The trans-Atlantic steamship com panies charge $10 for carrying dogs, cats and monkeys across. This is giving dudes an advantage over other people, as they may come in under the latter head. It is said that the eating houses in Chicago are going for the visitors to the fair in regular pirate style. As a sample they charge 30 cehis for a ham sandwich. That's hoggish to say the least of it. A physician in Lansing, Michigan, is arraigned by his brother docs for duplicity, disloyalty, misrepresenta tion, conspiracy and libel. And while he was practising all these things he was also practising medi cine. . " - -- It seems thai Rev. Sam Small shot his mouth off too recklessly m that - Griffin, Gan sermon, when he charg ed that the young ladies of that burg were lacking in virtue. .He found -it necessary to apologize and say that he had been wrongly informed. : The increase of Hebrews in Pales tine seems to have aroused the fears of the Sultan of Turkey, lest they might sometimes get up and smite him and snatch the land from him. He has issued a decree forbidding He brews from becoming owners of real state in the fatherland. . The Cincinnati Gazette thinks that when the tapping of an "old cracked bell" could evoke so much enthusi asm, there is not much fear of liberty playing out in this country. There are people, however, who might take it as' evidence that the enthusiasts as well as the bell were cracked. Ex-President Harrison,; it is said, will not attend the meeting of Re publican Leagues at Louisville, to day. He is afraid' people n may think he is manipulating for the nom ination in 1896. Perhaps the fact that the meeting is Gen. Clarkson's job, has something to do with it. 1 VOL; LIL-NO. 36 -..i Ex-Senator - Ingalls, without giv ing notice, rigged in his farming tog gery, visited a school in the suburbs of Atchison, Kansas, and scared the teacher and scholars out of their wits. They took him for a wicked cowboy. Donn Piatt once said that God Almighty had written in a very plain hand some : very unpleasant things on the face of John J. Ingalls, so the fright of the teacher and the scholars is not so surprising. " " - Mrs. Mary Ellen Lease, of Kansas, has entered the field of prophecy, and disposes, of Chicago by predicting that the waters of the lake will crawl up and submerge the .wicked town in 1993. s In that case Chicago will be well washed for once. In the mean time she will continue to enjoy her dirt and her wickedness, regardless of the " liquid prophecies of Mary Ellen. " : v : . The champion juvenile thief lives up in Brooklyn, N. Y. He is a twelve-year-old. who slipped the coat off his dead father and pawned it for a few nickels. This depravity would be unaccountable if it were not for the announcement that he was a cig arette smoker, and stole the coat to buy cigarettes. One of the largest : fruit farms East of the Rocky Mountains is in Jefferson county. West- Virginia. It comprises 2,400 acres. Many kinds of fruit are grown but peaches take the lead.

Fort Scott and Memphis has de cided to establish a hospital for the ben efit of the employes of the road. The scheme is one that is meeting universal commendation and may be in the end adopted by all roads in the South. Three surgeons and one physician will be kept in connection with the hospital, which will be located at Kansas City. An as sessment of 85 cents and 50 cents every month will be made on the salary of each employe for the purpose of defray ing the expenses of the institution. An Atlanta dispatch says it is proba ble that the Macon and Birmingham road will be valued for taxation by ar bitrators. Receiver Sparks has sent the controller . general a. statement which represented the road to be worth only 4ialf as much as was shown by the re turn of last year. The controller reject ed this, and the receiver 'now calls for a board of arbitrators. He makes an af fidavit which Is very striking, considered in connection with the shrinkage in value of railroad property in this sec tion. It says that if the rails were pulled up from the roadbed of the Macon and Birmingham, they would sell for a better E rice than the line as k stands, includ ig the iron, can be sold for. -.: Mr. L.-1V Mallard and Mr. J.

Suit was instituted in the Superior Court of this county yesterday, to re cover possession of air that portion of Wrightsville Beach south of and includ ing the "Shelter of the Silver Cross" to Masonboro Inlet. The plaintiff is Ed. F. Bryant, a former native of this county, but now residing in Florida. The de fendants are numerous and -comprise all persons occupying the Beach within the limits aforesaid. The Ocean View Com pany, the Ocean View Railroad Com pany, the Wilmington Sea Coast Rail road Company, and the, Wilmington Sa vings and Trust Company, are among the defendants. The plaintiff sues as the heir of the late Duncan M. Bryant, and seeks to have certain deeds made by his father set aside . because of the latter's mental condition at the time the same were made. Mr. Allan B. Brown, of Chicago, and Mr. Aquilla J. Marshall of the local bar, represent the plaintiff. The summons is returnable to the September terra, 1893, of the Superior Court.

For North Carolina, generally fair, preceded to-night and in the early morn ing by showers in the east, slightly warmer, east winds. Tbtf Fayette nlle Poatoffloe. The Washington correspondent of the Richmond Dispatch says : The talk here is that Congressman Grady, of North Carolina, and Hon. Mr. Rose, who are trying to have the col ored postmaster at Fayetteville removed, would have met with smoother sailing if the case had been handled differently. It is thought that Mr. Rose rubbed the Postmaster-General the wrong way, and Mr. Bissell got his '-back up." Mr. Grady has been doing what he can, and in time it is thought he will have the change effected. Other negro postmasters in the South have been removed, but the fight was not wholly made because they are black. . , It is said the President will consider the matter, and he Is known to be in fa vor of making changes where negroes hold Southern postmasterships, but he is reputed to think that too much noise must not be made. The Grand Concert Thnreday Ulaat. A concert of surpassing interest will be that of the Glee and Banjo Clubs at the Opera House Thursday evening. A varied programme of vocal and ; instru mental music will be given, consisting of solos, quartettes, glees, concerted pieces and college choruses, and an enjoyable entertainment . is assured.. The Lan caster, Pa., Daily praised a recent con cert there and said: "The University of Pennsylvania Glee and Banjo Clubs ap peared to a large audience in the Opera House last night. Both clubs appeared to fine effect and encores were frequent. The banio solo by Mr. Eno and the baritone solo by Mr. Hecht were fea tures of the evening.'

All belonged to Col. Thos. W. Strange and were insured with Mr. J. H. Boatwright-seven of them for $125 each and two lor $200; the aggregate amount of insurance being $1,275 which will about cover the loss. - Four of the houses were occupied by colored families who saved most of their effects. . The other. buildings were unoccupied. The firemen labored under great, dif ficulties. The nearest hydrant was at the corner of , Eighth and Castle streets and a line of 1800 feet of hose had to be laid before water could be. had and then the supply was found to be inadequate to the emergency" The fire broke out in one of the unoccupied houses and was, undoubtedly, started by an incen diary. - . ' . About half-pas 11. o'clock, a. m.t the department was again called, out by an alarm from box. No. 54. The blaze broke out - under the house of .

Sudden Death. " . A colored man named Robert Wil liams," dropped Jead about half -past seven o'clock last evening, near the corner of Nun and Fifth streets. Coro ner Walton was notified, and made an examination. He tound no marks of violence on the man's person, and ascer tained that he had been suffering re cently with heart trouble, which was probably the cause of his death. Wil liams was a laborer, and lived with his wife on Fifth street, near Church. He was about sixty years of age. A Profitable Beaaon. The trucking season, so far, has been a profitable one to farmers engaged in this industry, and especially in the terri tory contiguous to Wilmington.

" There is a proposition on foot for the establishment of another savings bank here on the penny deposit principle.

NO MONEY. IN THE CITY TREASURY. The defeat of the proposition for an issue of $50,000 of bonds" by the city for street impromemeats, &o, will prove quite a serious drawback. ' Under the provisions of the law it was -contemplated to devote about $10,000 to build ing a new station house. The present one has been condemned by the Board of Health, and the further incarceration of offenders in it is likely to cause suits for damage. As there is no money now in the city Treasury our aldermen find themselves in an. unusual pecuniary dilemma. ' A WASHINGTON RUMOR. A rumor prevails here this morning that Senator Ransom had secured the appointment of -Public Printer for Mr. Harrell, of Weldon. This is much re gretted, as our people had earnestly hoped that N. B.
