The dredge and scows have been at work here for tbe past three years, with Mr. Trent in charge, on Cape Fear river and bar. . 1' . : Such days as yesterday and the two preceding are so devoid of occur recces of any interest that the news gatherer is frequently sent wool gather ing. Still there is. in a quiet way, quite a good deal of talking going on, even if there is nothing being done. At the rboteis. and in the cosy offices of news papers and business houses, the hum of conversation may be beard. And it would be strange if Cuba and the state of affairs in that island should not be one of the absorbing topics. Possibly to the citizens of no other town ia the State does the Cuban cause appeal to strpngly as to tbe people ot Wilmington. FOOT BALL CHRISTMAS. Tne Charlotte Team May Be- Indue. 1 to Play Wilminrwnrj Another letter was received from Charlotte yesterday regarding playing Wilmington for the foot ball cham pionship of the State. The writer said that as the Wilmington team went to Charlotte last Christmas, after thev went out of training, that possibly the Charlotte boys could be induced to come here this Christmas to accom modate the" Wilmington boys. It is hoped here that .they will do this, as tbe Wilmington team will undoubtedly claim the championship and rightly do so, un less tbe Charlotte team accepts their challenge, which has nowvbeen tendered three times this year. If Charlotte re fuses outright to play them, a game will be played either with Wi.'son or New bet n to fill that date. A Star reporter was shown a letter yesterday from Mr. Arthur B.

'Varsity team was outplayed and outclassed that they would never give up. and would go to work at once to de feat the Virginia team on the base ball diamond this Spring to hold their cham pionship over them in that game. T. M. O. A. Contaat. Since the membership of the Young Men's Christian Association has been reduced to five dollars per year, It has been payable in advance. Daring the present membership contest, members have only to pay two dollars at once if the remainder is paid by January 1st. Bat now arrangements have been made by which any poor young man who wishes to join can do so on his own terms. Seyeral charitable gentlemen have offered to advance to any worthy young man the price of membership, and let him return the money at bis own convenience, at twenty-five or thirty cents per week or less as the man may choose. Under such terms, it certainly seems that any one who wishes to be come a member ean do to. 1 ' iiwaaa aa a Ara Ton Oat ot Wo: if The Star wilt help yon get a position absolutely free of all cost, or if you want some one to work for you tbe Star will charge you nothing for the advertise ment- This offer is made to help those out of employment, and does not apply to "boarders wanted."

The storm of wind aid rain that pre vailed yesterday played havoowith tele graph wires, and last nbht Wilming ton was cat off almost entirely from communication by wire with the outside world. The Postal Telegraph Company's lines went down early in the day and the Western Union, out of twenty-two wires, had only one clear last evening, and that was between Wilmington "and Newbern. The y Southern Associated Press' leased ; wires : went down with : the rest and ia consequence the Star is unable this morning to furnish its readers with tbe usual 'quan tity of telegraphic news. North of Wil mington there was heavy snow and sleet, and the linemen sent out to re pair the breake In the lines will have great trouble. At Mount -Olive the snow yesterday afternoon was five inches on a level, and : still falling. Magnolia reported three inches of sleet. South and west of Wilmington pretty much the same state of affairs was re ported. Advices from along the line of the Cape Fear & Yadkin Valley rail road were that a heavy snow storm pre vailed, and the Western Union people reported that over one hundred of their telegraph poles.", between Wilmington and Florence were prostrated. ' . The wire to Southport was reported alt right but no telegraphic news was re ceived from that place. . A tag came up in tbe forenoon and brought report that a gale was raging, and no one could reach tbe stranded tug Levi govt's, on Bald Head beach. -v. '- " In this city there was rain, rain, noth ing but rain, with wind accompaniment; business was almost entirely suspended. The maximum wind velocity np to 8 p. m. was 84 miles, from the north. At 9 o'clock last night the barometer was rising and the wind had shifted to the northwest, with decreasing force, show ing that tbe Gal storm was moving east wardly off tbe coast.' The temperature then was 83 degrees and falling, 1- MUSICAL ENTERTAINMENT By tbe Young People' Aaaco'ation et St. Paul's Lutheran Cbureh.

Each and every number on the programme was rendered to the highest delight of the audience. The special features of the evening were the parts taken by Miss Adrian, as "Glorianna Gadabout Sweet," and the mandolin playing of Miss Glameyer, which was more than appre ciated by the audience, Tbe comic songs and farce sketch given by Mr. John Blomme was highly appreciated by the audience, also, his solo, ' I'll he True to My Honey Boy."

The piece Is spoken of wherever i : has - been performed as magnificently staged, in costumes and accessories. The principal roles are filled b? artists of well known reputation, among whom ere Carlotta, Frank David, William Blaidell and Clara Lavioe. The musical menu is extensive enough to rank the play as a comic opera, and if half the praise lavished upon it elsewhere be true, it is ia all respects wortby ot the patron age of theatre-goers. Mirth seems to be the supreme monarch on the stage to day, and all who see Henshaw and Ten Broeck ia "The Nabobs" will get mirth "a-plenty." . - Seats are bow on sale at Get ken's.

Senator Butler, in an editorial'in this week's Caucasian, says that It cannot be denied that there is strength and truth in some of Watson's letter. He fuuhet says: " "Watson is either something of a prophet or a good guesser. He pre dicted the result of the election, and we think he gave one good chance for the result. - "We think, however, that Watsbn was right ia predicting tbat Bryan would be defeated on account of the refusal of Sewall, the Democratic Vice Presidential nominee, to retire Irom the ticket; and we further believe that if .bewail had retired Bryan and Watsbn would have been elected. - This stupid and brutal mistake on the part of the. Democrats is limply but anotber chapter in the record of Democracy, and makes remote the possibility of an attempt at uniting tbe Populists and Democrats in any future national campaign. Ia fact, we think such a thing altogether impossible, for we do not believe the People's party will follow, hereafter, any man who tries to march under a Democratic banner."
