The Chicago Tribuue advises Re publican Congressmen when they get down to work to advocate doubling the tax on beer. That advice wasted. There will be an election next year, and we'll wager a tin horn with brass trimmings, that such; a proposition couldn't get a respectable vote from either party. The Teu tonic citizen is a powerful factor in some of the- States North of us, and higher taxed beer either meang higher priced beer or poorer beer. It is always well for a man to keep on good terms and maintain his credit with his wife. After Senator Jones, of Nevada, had made about $5,000,000 he waded in too deep and lost every red. His wife had about $60,000 worth of jewels, which she lent him, and on the money he raised on these he started out again, struck it rich and soon became wealthy again. He redeemed the diamonds, aaaea 35 per cent, la cash and re turned them to Mrs. Tones. The Jacksonville, -Fla., Citizen, calls attention to the fact that th prejudice which existed some time ago against; agricultural colleges is disappearing, as their value becomes more realized. Every State ought not only to have one or more agri cultural colleges, but also a farm conducted in a practical wav in which experiments might be made with new seeds and plants, and in different modes of culture, &c, to advance the cause ot agriculture. Governor Culberson, of Texas, has issued notice by proclamation .that the Corbett-Fitzsimmons mill can't be pulled .off in that State. It re mains now to be seen whether the bruisers can knock Governor Cul- berson out as thev did Governor Mitchell, of Florida, after all his palavering and proclaiming. Investigation has shown that it was the cattlemen and not the Indi ans who were at the bottom of the trouble with the Bannocks in Wyom ing. Some of the settlers alleged to have been killed by them were killed I fifty or sixty years aeo. and were re- suscitated to be killed over again. The newspapers of New York city have awakened such an interest in the case of Maria Barberi, , who was sentenced to be electrocuted for killing her faithless lover, that over 30,000 names have been signed to petitions asking for a commutation of sentence. It Is stated that all the available space at the Atlanta Exposition has been engaged and that the manage ment can't consider any more appli cations. There is no more room to put up more buildings if money was at command for that purpose. The Chicago Tribune advises Re publican Congressmen to touch the tariff question very lightly when they, get to law-making, and to steer far'away from anything like a gen eral revision.

The Naval Battalion of North Caro lina will begin their cruise for theear 1895 to-morrow. Commander Winslow and Lieutenant Commander George L. Morton were at work yesterday getting every thing in readiness for the cruise, which' is expected to be the best ever held by the North Carolina f Re-' serves.- The . Wilmington " division will do r itself honor by carry ing a large number. Commander Winslow sent a letter to Capt. Harris Northrop oi the Wilmington Light In fantry, extending an invitation" to that Company to furnish a detachment of W. L. I. men to act on the cruise of 1895 as a marine guard. This will add much to the already efficient ship's company., and place the Reserves on board , the Nantucket on an equality with a regular war-ship. . ' ; The Naval Battalion of North Caro lina will, the same as heretofore, man the Nantucket from a commander to fireman and coal-passer, with members of the Reserves. A large number of the North Carolina Reservesare expected to arrive to-morrow and Saturday, to join the Wilmington Division which will go into commission on board the mon itor Nantucket to-morrow at noon. Or. T. S, Burbank, Surgeon of the Bat talion, will reach here to-day. Paymas ter Latimer,-who has been spending the Summer at White Sulphur Springs, Greenbrier, Va., arrived yesterday and has entered upon his duties. It is hoped by most prominent citizens that the double-turreted monW&t Ampkitrite will visit Wilmington instead of stopping at Southport. . It is more than probable that the citi zens of Wilmington, and the merchants especially, will give the officers of this naval warship a reception which will Surpass those given by other Southern cities, or the one given the French man-of-war which visited here a few years ago. - The officers of the battalion are to be complimented on the hard work done in the last few days. Chief Engineer Furlong, with his' corps of assistants, were overhauling and repairing the monitor's machinery yesterday, and by to-morrow noon will have everything in readiness to move from the mooring at the foot of Chesnut street and proceed to boutbport RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT. Copy of resolutions of respect passed at meeting of directors of the Wilming ton Seacoast Railroad Co. in regard to the death of Capt. John H. Daniel: Whireas, In the providence of God it has seemed wise and best to remove from our midst by death the esteemed and respected general manager of this corporation; Capt. John H. Daniel; and. Whereas. We recognize the hand of Htm "who doeth all things well." being "too good to be unkind and too wise to err, still we can but deplore nis talcing off in the full vigor of manhood and in the midst of his usefulness to his family and to this community, and as an ex pression of our esteem and regard for him as a man and an officer, we do herebv Resolve, That we greatly deplore bis decease, and that we nave sunered the loss of a personal lriend and this corpo ration an active and zealous officer, while our community is bereft of a gentleman of ardent and generous impulses. Resolved, That in respect to his mem ory that the office of the company be draped in mourning for thirty days, and that a oaee in our records be set apart and inscribed with his name and date of birth and death. Resolved. That we tender to his be reaved mother and grief-stricken family our tenderest sympathy in this their sad affliction. Resolved. That - the secretary be in strncted to send a copy of these resolu tions to his mother and family, and also to the city papers with request to pub lish. Population of Wilmington. If the population of Wilmington is not more than 22,027, as indicated Dy the census just taken in connection with the census of school children, it shows an-increase of just 10 per cent, over the census of 1890, and is less than the gen eral estimates, which have ranged arqund 24,000. What the latest figures represent be yond the natural increase cannot-even be approximately determined. It may be noted, however, that quite a number of negroes have removed from Wilming ton during the past five years, and that there has been no large influx of new population from the outside, The fact is, Wilmington is not growing as rapidly in trade and population as she should. Business, in some branches, is overdone, credit is too cheap, and there is an ab sence of that unity of purpose among her business men that is necessary to success. An Unwelcome Visitor. An attempt at robbery was made Tuesday night at the residence of Mr. F. M. King, on South Fifth street. Mr. King went home at 11 o'clock that night, and found his mother up and much dis turbed, and the dogs in the yard barking furiously. Taking a pistol, he went through the house, and on opening the back door saw a man standing in the yard. The man ran and jumped the fence when he saw Mr. King approach ing. Betd? K on the Fight.

In talking with an acquaintance of Mr, Tufts, the soda fountain millionaire, who is doing so much for Southern Pines and vicinity, be said : Mr. Tufts is not do ing this matter as a speculation, but more from philanthropic motives. He wants to build at that section and only seeks to get the principal back with a small and reasonable rate of interest. Mr. Tufts is reputed to be worth ten millions He has bought 5,000 acres of land five miles from Southern Pines. One hundred acres has already been laid off with lots and wide streets.

Intimations That Democra-s and BepubE- eana Will Both Ignore the Populisti. .The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun writes : 'A prominent Republican Senator said to a representative of the Sun to-day : "Whatever happens we will have noth ing to do with the Populists in the next Congress. There are at least seventeen Republican members of the Senate from the West who are engaged in fighting Populism with much greater spirit than they ever opposed the Democrats. In several of the Western States it is the only fight we have, and we cannot be ex pected to agree to any compromise which might strengthen the party in the South, but would be sure to weaken it in the West. Many of us have no serious disputes with the Democrats, and we would much rather compromise with them than make the slightest concession to to the Populists." It is therefore considered very probable that the Republicans and Democrats will agree to divide tBSen- ate offices between them and that the Populists will not enter into the consid eration of either party. This feeling of animosity against the Populists, which animates both the old political parties, is intended to weaken the Populistic or ganization throughout the country. The Western Republicans and the Southern Democrats stand in exactly the same po sition in regard to the Third party peo ple, and neither can be expected to treat with them upon any suDiect. This will eventually, it is thought, cause the dis integration of the Populist party." BICYCLING FOR WOMEN. This Favors the Women, But With a Qual ification. In the Boston Medical and Surgical Journal Dr. Charles W.Townsend states that he! sent a list of questions to eighteen1 women physicians in Boston. and throughout the State in regard to the value of bicycling for women. The replies cover the field of bicycling for women very satisfactorily, showing that the bicycle is of great value to the aver age woman, and when improperly used may do harm. Outdoor exercise is of great value to every one, and women, as a rule, suffer greatly from the lack of it. Another thing from which women suffer is too heavy and too tight cloth ing. No amount of dress reform preach- ! ing or of calisthenic exercises will rem- edy these evils or awaken the woman to a knowledge of the possibilities of the enjoyment of life. This is what the bicycle is doing, and is destined to do. In the same journal Dr. James R. Chadwick publishes an articles entitled 'Bicycle Saddles for Women," in which he remarks that he finds no serious at tempt has as yet been made to produce a saddle that shall be adapted to a wo man s anatomy. Saddles in most use require many adjustments to be com fortable to the generality of female riders; some of the saddles are abso lutely unfitted for the use of women; and teachers have no definite ideas by which they can adapt the saddle to the use of women. FILIBUSTERS LAND IN CUBA. Two Expeditions With Men, Arms, Am munition and Dynamite. New York, July 80. Information was received, in this city to-day of the successful landing in Cuba last Thurs day of two bodies of insurgents, who carried with them two cannon, 700,000 rounds of ammunition, 600 pounds of dynamite and hundreds ot repeating rifles and revolvers. One expedition consists, it is said, of 278 men and the other of 75 men, almost all of them veterans of the last revolutionary war in Cuba.

Editor Star In to-day's issue of your paper you said, simply, that the Board of Aldermen turned over to the city attorney the book with an order to collect ''back taxes," which statement is time in one sense but not in another, because the resolutions turning over the. book were adopted by a yea and : nay vote, and Walker and I voted "no." But you said, by im plication, that we voted yea. Had you noted that fact your report would have been fuller. I regard the act of the As sembly, with respect to this matter, as being very grave. I did not regard the act, handed down by the Assembly, as a mandate to the Board of Aldermen, but some did. - Respectfully, J. O. Nixon. Wilmington, July 31. 1895.

THE CAROLINA MUTUAL ,Fire Insurance Company, of Charlotte, N. C. The CAROLINA MUTUAL is a strong NORTH CAROLINA Com pany. It is, however, a stock com pany, and issues absolutely non-participating and non-assessable poli cies. Its mutual feature consists in a charter provision, that due-third of its directors must be POLICY HOLDERS who are NOT stock holders elected by the POLICY HOLDERS; this is a very strbng point, the policy-holders who have great interests at stake, have a share in The management of the Company, and will always know its condition. Better than this, the CAROLINA MUTUAL deposits all premiums re ceived at this agency to their credit with the WILMINGTON SAVINGS AND TRUST COMPANY. This makes It practically a local company. The directors of the company are : P. M. BROWN, . Of Brown, Weddington & Co.. Wholesale Hardware. E. B. SPRINGS, Of E. B. Springs & Co., Fertilizers and Wagons. M. P. PEGRAM. Cash'r First Nat'l Bank of Charlotte. B. D. HEATH, ' Of Heath Brothers, Bankers. . SAM'L E. WHITE. President Fort Mill Man'f'g Co. A. Q SUMMERVILLE, Lumber and Real Estate. J. T.
