The city of Lancaster, Pa., is suf fering from an epidemic of typhoid fever, attributed to drinking impure water, which has too much animal matter in it for drink but not enough for food. The round trip fare from St. Louis to the City of Mexico has been re duced to $20, a circumstance which will doubtless be taken advantage of by many of the "pukes" to visit the land of the "greasers." It is said -that the only pet of the ex-Empress,Eugenie is a little hedge hog, which she carries with her wherever she goes, in a daisy, silk- lined wicker basket, which she will entrust to no one, but carries herself. It is said that there Is in the Mississippi Valley a system of earth works extending from the lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. The fellows who built them have emigrated with out leaving any record to throw light on the earthworks. Governor McKinley, of Ohio, wentJto New York to "pay honor to the patriotic dead." If he was par ticularly anxious on this subject he could have paid that debt in Ohio, without scampering off to New York to do it. Perhaos that's what took Mr. Harrison there, too When the late Secretary Gresham was called into the Cabinet, some of his wealthy friends believing that he could not support the dignity of his station on his. salary, placed $50,000 to his credit in bank, but he positive ly declined to play the role of a dis tinguished mendicant and put his veto on that proceeding, and on top of that he relinquished the pension which he had been drawing. There was nothing small, pretentious nor shoddy about Gresham. THE WEATHER. U. S. Dep't of Agriculture. Weather Bureau, Wilmington, N C, June 2.

The Pnbllo School New Hanover county should be proud of those who manage the public school affairs of the City of Wilmington. Each year for several years the public schools of this community have grown both in efficiency and numbers until a better school service cannot be found in any city in the South. All the public school buildings, four in number, have been built anew in the last three years, and now we have four first-class buildings used for this purpose; two by the white race and two ior colored children. In the closing exercises of all the public schools which took place recently they were crowded and many people were turned away from each one, which chows the great interest manifested in our pub lic institutions. The Star wisbingcredit to whom credit is due in the manage ment of tree schools, publishes the fol lowing list of those in charge, who each deserve the thanks of the community for their untiring efforts in behalf of institu tions of such great importance to those in need of an education and the entire community.

Calder, has been organized, and supported by two cornets, a piano and the grand organ of the First Church, will lead the singing. All who attend are assured of good music and a spiritual feast. The three Baptist churches invited Dr. Wharton to come, and these meet ings are held 'under their auspices; but the invitation was extended in order that all Christians might be refreshed and with a hope that our entire commu nity would be benefitted.

Atlanta to Portsmouth-Ooly a Division Superic tsndendent to Be Left. A staff correspondent of the Atlanta Journal telegraphs from Macon, May 30th, as follows: The general offices ot the Seaboard Air Line in Atlanta will be removed to Portsmouth, Va, I have talked to General Manager rinder and have heard an expression on the subiect from Vice-President E. St John. Since neither of them denies the rumored removal and since I have other strong and reliable authority con firming it, it may be regarded as a cer tainty tnat the omces mentioned will be loved to Portsmouth, and this before the hrst ol July next. The following are the officeis whose headquarters will be changed from At lanta to Portsmouth: John H. Winder, general manager; V. E. McBee. general superintendent; T. W. Whisnant. super intendent of road way, and O. L Cloud, engineer of maintenance of way. A di vision superintendent at Atlanta is the only substitute which will replace this general removal. Who the man will be has not vet been determined. The change, I understand, was to have taken place on June 1st, but the Sea board's $75,000 office building in Ports mouth has not yet been completed, which will necessitate a delay of from ten to thirty days. In addition to the absence of Messrs. Winder, McBee, Cloud and Whisnant, the removal will take away an office force of perhaps twenty from the rail way circles ot Atlanta. High Temperature. Yesterday was the warmest day of June in Wilmington on record, the ther mometer at the Weather Bureau regis tering the maximum at 100 degrees At other places around town the mercury was a notch or two higher.

The matter ot a reduction of the proposed initiation fee will be discussed. Carolina Beach , The season at this popular resort will soon be open. Repairs at the pier have been completed, the railroad has been put in good order and the hotel will soon be ready for the reception of guests. The steamer Wilmington will begin her reg ular trips to the pier tc- morrow. Abaut the Half-Holiday. the Kichmond estate thus expresses itself on early closing: "The State heartily and earnestly ap proves the early closing movement in this city. The fact is our business hours in the South are too long anyway. If there were concert of action among the merchants, 'purcnaseis could soon be made to do their chopping within rea sonable hours and not spread them over the whole day. But the public is not considerate and usually takes all the privileges it can get, and so long as merchants are indul gent, just so long will the public take ad vantage, Nobody is hurt, however, by early closing in Summer time. Last fear the early closing movement was very general and it worked admira bly, so far as we know. We hope that the custom this Summer will be even more general than it has ever been.
