Some queer wills get into conrt sometimes. One of these got into a San Francisco court recently, where a contest was made over a will that was written on a shingle by an old miner who left a big pile of money to some one who had helped him in his day of need. A will on a shingle looked somewhat odd, bat the court held that it was straight and O. K. 'No' one," remarks Mr. McKinley, "suffers so much from cheap money as the farmers and laborers " What an amazing amount of interest these gold standard,! soft-handed sons of toil take in the farmers and laborers. Dear money is the thing for them. Bat they have had some dear expe rience in that line. Mr. Bright, of San Francisco; ' has a lawsuit on his hands, all because he concluded he was . going to die, and made 6ver his property to a sis ter. But . the doctors pulled him through, . and bis sister is pulling trough the property and refuses to return what is left to him. He is suing to get it back. A Republican contemporary re marks: " There is no group of citi zens that can do better .service for honest money than cpmmercial drummers." Judging from what we see in the Northern papers the bosses are of this way of thinking and are working the bovs accordin'. They are still discussing what the "national flower" shall be, and it is proposed to hold a congress of rep resentatives from the different States to decide it. Why not take ' the daisy? That is a 16 to 1 er: 16 white petals with a gold center. A carpet mill at Yonkers, N. Y., employing 700 operatives, resumed work Monday. The men who run this mill concluded that they would not wait for Mr. McKinley to be elected, and that they could run the mill without his assistance. The Alabama iron makers who are shipping iron to England have confi dence in their ability to compete with European "pauper labor,"and to run their establishments without the assistance of Wm. McKinley. The latest Trust is a $50,000,000 one composed, of manufacturers of wrought and drawn iron tribes. The Trust is formed "to protect prices," which means to choke off competi tion. It is said that Russia has succeed ed in stealing Carnegie's secret for the manufacture of steel armor plate, and is now building plants to manu facture it on her own account. Between 1891 and 1894, over $3C" 000,000 of American gold was - snip ped to Austria to help that country to make gold payments and keep up its gold reserve. J3TETW; AJD VJSBTIJ3KMJBNT8.

FOOT "ball. The Wilmington Team Oettlns in Sbape for the Apprcaenme Beaeon. Wilmington's shaggy-haired, leather- lunged enthusiasts are hard at work get ing in sbape for their coming season. Last night Capt. McKoy had the bo?s out on their new field and gave them a good two hours' practice. Prominent among the players were the following members ot last season s team, viz: King, McKoy, Sinclair, Peschau, Hol land, Southerland, Vick and Forshee, while Messrs. Oldham, H. N. Latham, Turrentine, Beery, T. D. Latham, Ste venson, Taylor and several other candi dates for positions were with the boys. The boys were put through their signals, practiced uckling, falling on the ball, line bucking and all plays incidental to this great Fall sport. President Bellamy says tne prospects ot the team are "first-class," and he sees no reason why our team can't down any team in the South. Charleston, Columbia, Savan nah, Augusta, Atlanta and other South ern cities are now getting teams in the field, and it is to be hoped some satis factory dates can be arranged with these teams. Our boys are in the game for the sport alone and are working like beavers to accomplish the desired end which is to down all opponents." They showed they were capable of running np agai nst the best teams by their wo k of last year when they downed University of North Carolina by a score of tf to 4, and made Charlotte Athletic Club dance to their music to the tune of 6 to 4. McR. Hatch the clever right half , back of the team will soon arrive fro m Aiheville to be witn the boys again, and he is one who would do credit to any team. As soon as the preliminary practices are tnrough with the bo? s will get down to bard practice and some interesting games miy be expected. The bovs de serve the co operation and support of citizens, and it is hoped it will be given them cheerfully. A Very Important Matter. An entirely new registration is re quired for the coming election in all cases where there has been a division of any Ward or Township. Where there has been no such division, a revision of the registration books only is required. It should be noted especially that only four days are allowed for registration, viz : Saturday, September 26tb; Satur day, October 8d; Saturday, October 10th: and Saturday, October 17th. Re member the dates. The hours of registration are from ft o'clock a. m. to 4 o'clock p. m. The law provides that all candidates, or their duly authorized representatives, may witness the counting of the ballots. CY. 1 WATSON'S APPOINTMENTS. Cyrus B.

Special Star Correspondence. " Raleigh, N. C, Sept. 84. The .big McKinley banner -which hangs from headquarters was badly torn by a passing vehicle yesterday. I have learned who gave the banner. It was Washington Duke and not a sound mocey Democrat, as was given out. More than that, Washington Dnke has made the largest contribution to the Re- public in campaign fund of any so far. He is Dledeed to'eive S10.000. Duke's liberality Is the result of his hatred for Cy. Watson, because the latter has at tacked the American Tobacco Company so repeatedly President Alderman, of the Univer sity; writes that the second week of the 102d session of the University closes with a total enrollment ot 526 This is the largest since the war. An enroll ment ol 575 is expected during the year. The new session opets with great har mony and enthusiasm. The students have voluntarily adopted a higher stand- ard oi conduct, and the woik begins most favorably in all departments. The most notable change is the successful beginning of Commons Hall One hun dred and twenty students were present at the first recital. This number will reach 200 by Christmas. Twenty studect waiters make their board by this enter prise, and it promises to be the most ef fective of many efforts to help the ycung men of the State to help thems;lves at least one hundred men are working their way through college largely by devices of their own. ' Chairman Ayer has left the city on a scouting expedition. Is is said by a person who knows,: that the Republican Executive Committee has received only $).50O from Mark Hanna so far.

"Old John Lowlow," the world famed clown; his name brings back to memory those days of long ago. How well he is remembered i with I no. Robinson's circus, , standing in the ring dressed in the custo mary clown s suit,, shouting, "Bring in another horse!" But the one-ring circus has pssied away, with its deep- red lemonade, clown songster, two-day stands and quality not quantity, and has left in its place a circus with three rings. Mr. Lowlow is a native of G:or- gia. He is tne most tamous down the American people have ever known. He has travelled the world over, having been connected with the Robinson cir ens for thirty-three consecutive years. Six times to E drops and eleven times to California is his record so far. B it one thing is certain, he has contributed much to the happiness of his fellow-man. and what more can be said of anyone. Mr. Lowlow will be here with Main's show.

The "Pttohfotk" Ssnator Addressed a Imi Gathering cf Democrat! at the Ji Opera Honae. Special Star Telegram Goldsboro, N- C, September 24.. Senator Tillman, of "Pitchfork" fame, spoke at the Opera House to night to a packed audience. Many ladies were pre sent. His speech lasted for fifty minutes, on pure Djmocrsc without the combi natioa attachment. His abuse of Cleve land, Hill and tne Eistern Democracy was terrific and while it pleased a few the maj jrity of the audience did not seem to relish it. He considered the present politic d state of affairs in North Caro'ina, "a genuine curiosity," and gave counsel how to combat it; not by abuse, but to talk kindly snd reason with those who had s.rayr deff from the Democratic fold into the Populist camp, acd thereby help to elect Bryan with "sixteen to one or bust." NEW COALING STATION. Norfolk May Soon Have a Nearby Biy.l in the Atlantlo Coast Trade. , Norfolk Virginian, Sept. 24. Mr. W. T. Gallagher, a prominent "New" York fi saucier, who is interested in Southern development, told a Vir ginian man yesterday sm interesting lacts as to a plan now on iootitBi which will prove interesting. Norfolk may soon have a rival in the coal trade. A little port to the south ward which is now scarcely known ex cept to the masters of coasting vessels, aspires to become a great, Atlant'c coal ing station, and unless rumors now rife in financial circles and all outward material evidences are iccorrect, the aspiration of Southport, N. C, is backed by capital. . The town of Southport is located at the mouth of the Cape Fear river, and for years past its only means of commu nication with the outside world was by water. There was no railway be tween Wilmington and Southport, only twenty-five miles apart. Had such been built directly after the war, the relative importance of the two places would have been reversed and Southport would have been the metropolis oi the Old North State. A railroad is now being constructed lrom Wilmington to Southport, and with the awakening ot a progressive spirit, the ambition of the place has scared to greater heights than has that ot any other Southern port except this. South port wants to be a coaling station. Cap italists have long had their eye on the fine harbor at the mcuth of the Cape Fear, which they believe could be util ized as a coaling station with profit. The consummation of these plans would not hurt Norfolk greatly, except in the case of steamers lrom Southern ports bound for Europe, which would stop at the most Southerlv coaling port where they could lay in a supply for a voyage.
