En-Honte to Hit Farm in Halifax County Hia Health IXuoh Improved Senator Marion Butler Honorary Scholarships to Boith Carolina Students Fire in Iionis burg The - Arrlsgton Court Capt. Ma aoa'a Gubernatorial Boom. Star Correspondence. Raleigh, N. C, June 15. Minister Matthew W. Ransom arrived in the city to-day en-route to his farm in Halifax county. He will spend a day there when he will go to White Sulphur Springs, Va., where he hopes to benefit his health." A press dispatch sent out from Washington this morning states that Mr. Ransom is seriously ill and he will be compelled to relinquish the Mex ican mission unless his health improves materially. Mr. Ransom is not seriously ill though he is quite feeble. He tells me his health has improved very much since he reached North Carolina. Mr. Ransom does not look like the sick man the newspapers have made him out. To a close friend Mr. Ransom said he expected to return to Mexico, if living. in a lew montns the Mexican climate will be more bearable than it now is and it is thought by Minister Ransom's friends that he will be able to remain there without detriment. Senator Butler arrived in the citv this morning from Memphis. He came in a few minutes after Minister Ransom arrived. They both were quartered at the Yarborough, and it was quite notice able that both of the distinguished gen tlemen's signatures were together on the register of the hotel. Of the twelve honorary scholarshios offered by Johns Hopkins University to Virginia and North Carolina students, four of them were given to Wake Forest students. Thev were E. W. Sikes, Wake Forest; W. A. Jones, Hills boro; W. B. Daniel, Garysburg; W. A, Montgomery, Jr., Raleigh. The only other North Carolinian who obtained an honorary scholarship was F. S. Wilcox, Lynn, N. C. It develops that the ordinance passed by the Board of Aldermen at their last meeting taxing country people and ethers for the privilege of retailing their goods on the streets bounding the mar ket, is unconstitutional. The Code spe cifically says that it shall not be lawful for town authorities to impose any tax whatever on wagons or carts selling farm products, fish, eta The new charter gave them no provision for levying the tax. Mayor Russ does not intend to enlorce the ordinance. It should have gone into enect to-day. There was a fire in Louisburg last night which did considerable damage. A Mr. Neal lost bis store by fire. Miss Caroline Litcbiord, sister of Mr. Henry E. Lltchford, cashier of the Citi zens' National Bank, is to be married on the 26th of June to Francis Atherton Macon, of Henderson. Thieves entered the house of Mr. Henry Young last sight and stole a number of articles. They also paid their respects to his hen house; a remarkable fact is that they killed the chickens and picked the feathers from them in the yard. Only one physician and one lawyer have complied with the law in taking out license as required by an act of the last Legislature. Those who have not compiled are liable to indictment. The complaints of Mrs. Arrington have been completed and are in the hands of Chief Justice Campbell. They are voluminous and would fill many vol umes. It is quite early to speculate on the gubernatorial question, but the rapidity with which the boom for Captain Mason is spreading, is to say the least a note worthy f ct. At Wake Forest this week his address was all the talk. The peo ple out there and they represented many sections of the State seemed to be a unit for him. Captain Mason is in no way seeking the office, for as every body knows, there is not a more reticent and unassuming man in North Carolina. Mr. Jule Carr is in the race, and Lieu tenant Governor Doughton has a great following who desire to see him Gov ernor of North Carolina. Special Star Telegram. The case of Goodwin vs. the Caraleigh Phosphate Works, seeking to recover penalty for failure of the company to tag twenty guano sacks, was decided in favor of the plaintiff. Defendants filed a demurrer, setting forth that the Agri cultural Department should have been made party plaintiff and the action should have been brought in the name of the State, and that the act under which the action was brought was in violation of both the State and National Constitutions. The demurrer was over ruled and defendants appealed to the Superior Court. Only one lawyer, two physicians and not a single hotel proprietor have taken out license in compliance with the act passed by the last Legislature. They are liable to indictment for doing busi ness without license. The law went into effect March 12th. Stewart Bros. State Printers, have given the job of binding the State laws to Jenkins & Walthall, Richmond, Va. They are working night and day in order to get the job finished as quickly as pos sible for every day's delay will cost the Stewart Brothers fifty dollars. Section 8639 of the Code says the laws, abstracts, and journals shall be delivered to the Secretary of State within ninety days after the adjournment of the Legislature, and for failure the State Auditor shall deduct from the account of the State Printer the sum of fifty dollars for each day's delay. Mr Stewart arrived from Winston to-day to investigate the mat ter. Quick Schedule to Aaherille.

Returning, passen gers can leave Asheville at 7:30 p. m ar rive at Columbia at 1:50 a. m., spend the night in Columbia, leave Columbia at 5:20 a. m. and arrive at Wilmington at 11:50 a.m. We would call attention to the ad. of Katz & Polvogt. They have selected a different line of goods to ran below value each day of the ensuing week. To-morrow they will reduce their price on silks and dress goods, and will run 5.000 yards of cotton fabrics at 5 cents per yard, worth 10c to 20c per yard, t BENEDICTS VS. BACHELORS. An Xzeiting Game of Bate Ball to be Flayed Next Friday Afternoon for the Benefit of the Bhelter of the Silver Croaa-The Players and Their Poeittona. There will be an exciting game of base ball next Friday afternoon at Hil ton between two picked nines; the one composed of some of our young men who are married; the other of those who lack the necessary courage to "take the yoke" " When it is taken into consideration that these players are the same that played that memorable game last year between the "Sons of Rest" and "Sons of Toil," no other induce ment need be offered to transfer the pop ulace of Wilmington bodily to the Park, particularly, as this game as the one of last year is for the benefit of the ' Shel ter of the Silver Cross." The management have gotc to con siderable expense to secure some star players. Trilby Lawson. of the Balti more Orioles, will be in the box for the Bachelors, while White Elephant Rob ertson will occupy this position for the Benedicts. The man who plays to the grand stand only will catch for the Bendicts when they are in the field and do all the talking when they are at the bat. The public will recognize in him Mr. J. C. Wise. Paymaster E. S. Latimer will with his usual energy, agility and avoirdupois hold down third base. The other bases will be held down by the promising players Gerken and Quince, of whom great things are expected. The most vital position of the fieldshort stop will be be ably taken care of by that rara avis C. E. Borden. Messrs. Watters, Evans and Turrentine, with Nutt as substitute, will endeavor to be more ornamental than useful in the field. Another grand stand favorite, Nellie Robinson, will try to stop Trilby's phenomenal curves: while Uncle Simon Sanders, Shadow Lippitt, and the august Colonel Bill Jones will hold down the bases respectively with Paint Oil and Putty Chas. at short. If Billy Merritt, Owen Love and Don McRae can muster sufficient energy to walk to the out fieid, they will stay there until called back. The management are endeavoring to secure the services of Mr. Heiskell-Gou- veneur, and if successful the public may look forward to some brilliant plays. The colors of the Benedicts will be red and white and the Bachelors blue and white. The partisans of each nine will wear their colors at the game. Death of Her. B. H. W. Bunae. The Star regrets to chronicle the death of Rev. B. H. W. Range, which took place at 6 o'clock yesterday evening at No. 311 South Fifth street. He was a clever gentleman, 82 years old, was born in Wilmington and known by nearly everybody. He was a machinist in the W. & W. R. R. shops up to the time when he left to study for the Lutheran ministry. He left here about eight years ago to attend school at Mount Pleasant, N. C, and after spending three years there went to the seminary at Philadel phia. After staying there four years he became sick and returned home, where he has gradually grown worse until his death from consumption last night. He was ordained two Sundays ago to the ministry by Rev. K. Boldt, of St. Paul's Lutheran Church, and expected to take charge of his first call in Ten nessee next week. He leaves four sis ters and three brothers, Mrs. Carl Mugge, Theodore and Willie Range and Misses Katie and Mamie Runge, one sister in Johnston county and a brother in Columbia. The fijneral will take place at 5 o'clock this afternoon from St. Paul's Lutheran Church. The Naval Beaervei. The Washington Post of Friday last says: "Assistant secretary mcaooo, 01 the Navy, is making arrangements to visit in the Dolphin the coast States having naval militia reserves. It is the intention of Mr. McAdoo to start with North Carolina and go up the coast, stopping at points where the naval re serves muster. The difficulty of making arrangements heretofore has been that the master of reserves has been at times widely distant and unless there can be some arrangement by which the musters can occur in regular order the Assistant Secretary cannot visit them. Replies thus far received indicate that the mas ters will be arranged to meet the require ments of suchTa trip as Mr. McAdoo contemplates. The Charlotte Observer says that Col. Smith of the North Carolina State Guard "has j ast finished his report to the Ad jutant General in regard to the disquie tude between the Newbern Reserves and Lieutenant Commander Winslow. Both made reports to headquarters so widely different that Col. smith was directed to go and see how matters stood, and to re port from an unbiased standpoint. A Press dispatch to the Star last night says that Assistant Secretary Mc Adoo will inspect the naval militia at Baltimore, Md., Monday afternoon, and then, possibly go to Wilmington. N. C, or he may conclude to go from Balti more to New York and New London. City Market. The markets yesterday were pretty well stocked with vegetables, f raits, poultry ! and fish,while the butchers' stalls showed good supplies of excellent beef, veal, j lamb and pork. Poultry continues in poor supply and prices are rather high for the season. Eggs are fairly plentiful at 12)4 cents per dozen. In the fruit market there were plums at 5 cents per quart; peaches at the same price; strawberries, 12Jf cents; blackberries and huckleberries, 5 cents; cantaloupes, 5 to 20 cents apiece. Soft-shell crabs were sold at 25 to 40 cents per dozen; channel crabs, 10 cents; shrimps, 15 cents per quart; dams and oysters, 12 to 15 cents per quart. Housekeepers who want servants are in the habit of supplying their needs from the Star's want column. Are you looking for a situation? The Star's want column will bring you the best results.

Cheanutt ft Barrentine'a shoe- wore Damage to Stook and Building Jbtimated at About S20,000-Bullding Pully Insured-Znauranda on Stock $15, 000. Fire was discovered about half-past one o clock this morning in Messrs. Chesnatt & Barrentine's, shoe-store on North Front street, between Market and Princess. When discovered volumes of smoke were pouring from the windows of the third story of the building, and when the Fire Department reached the scene in response to the rather laggard alarm, the whole of the third floor the top-story of the building from front to rear was in flames and the stairway on the second floor was burning. . There was considerable delay in forcing the stout doors of tne building and in the meantime the fire made rapid progress. About 2 o'clock flames burst through the roof and illumined the streets for Squares around, and to all appearances it seemed that Munson's clothing store, ad joining on the north, bad caught; but the firemen were then stoutly fighting the flames lront and rear, and in a short time had the fire under control and con fined to the shoe store. . The second and third stories of the building were completely burned out, but the fire did not reach the first floor. The cause of the fire is not known. Mr. Barrehtine, of the firm, said that nothing was kept on the third floor but empty packing cases and rubbish, but there were many cases of goods on the sennnrl floor. Th ent ir storlr ia nrof- tically a total loss, what was not burned Deing ruined Dy water, its estimated value was $18,000 or $20,000, with in surance for $15,000, divided among the agents in the city as follows: With Messrs. Steadman & Worth: B1000: Joseph D. Smith, $4,000; ; C. H. Robinson. Jr. 1 MM- M ? Wil. " - lard, $1,500; Dr. W. W. Harriss. $1,000! . H. Boatwright, $2,500; Atkinson & Son, $1,500. I The building is owned by Mr. Geo. R, French, and is fully insured. Mr. French also owns the building oc cupied by Messrs. Munson & Co., and the builrlinor rvmnifri on thA rrrnnnA floor by Mr. C. M. Harris. Neither of tnese were damaged nor were the goods in these stores injured, so far as could be ascertained last night. Meetings First Baptist Church. The meetings at the First Baptist church, which have been so much en joyed during the past two weeks, will be continued during this week. Rev. Dr. Wharton will take charge this morning, - preaching to-day at 11 a. m. and 8 p. m. No one thould fail to hear this eminent preacher, whose success in evangelistic work has been wonderful.
