Mr. Wad ley's cottage is safe, but tbe lattice-work is smashed. Mr. Jenkins cottage is damaged; nearly every support under the piazza and front of the bouse is gone and the house sags in the centre. The sea washed under the Butters cottage, demolished the bulkhead and smashed the lattice work. Mr. E. J. Powers' cottage was under mined by the waves,' but only slightly damaged. Capt.

For two .hours and a half at the Opera house last night fun was fast and furious. The Henshaw-Ten Broeck Company presented their scintillant comedy, "The Nabobs," before a good sized audience. Like most farce com edies the plot is not a very strong one, but it is not. upon the plot that the '-Nabobs" . depend for success, but upon tbe players who are cast in the different roles. Mr. Henshaw.as Howell J. Dodge, and Mr. Frank David, as Barna bu rotter Mr. JJapzes partner in misery headed the company of fun makers, and if they were tbe only ones in the cast tbe play would always be a "go" and never fail to please. These two kept the audience convulsed, and be tween breaths in stepped some other mirth-provoker. Miss May Ten Broeck filled tbe role cf Zenpbia Dodge much to the delight cf the audience. To give the names of the stars for they were all stars and credit each one justly, would take tip too much space ana too many taougbtlul mo ments. The specialties of tbe different members were all good, especially tbe topical song singing of Mr. Henshaw, the dancing of Miss Sophia Witt, the singing of Miss Clara Lavine and Mr. Eiw. Webb, and the travesty dancing of Mr. Blaisdell. The second . act, which occurred during the rehearsal of a comic opsra, was very fine. In fact, the troupe is composed Qf ngmbervne artists.

Governor-elect Russell will be in- augurated.ahd everybody will be anx ious to know what will be his policy. There are many other questions of great public interest to be discussed and settled, and those who wish to keep abreast of the times must nave a daily newspaper. From all over the State The Morning Stab has received praise and congratulations for the consis tent and determined fight it made for Bimetallism and true Democracy in the recent campaign. More than this, the increase in its circulation during the past few" months has never, we feel sure, been equalled in the history of North Carolina daily newspapers. v Are you' . a subscriber to The Morning Star ?

Do yon want a paper that prints the latest telegraphic hews, the best local newsy reliable market reports, excellent short stories, and the choicest miscellaneous matter? If so, subscribe to The Morning Star. Do not forget that The Morning Star is. the cheapest daily of its class in North Carolina. Its price is $5.00, while the published price of others ranges from $7.00 to $8.00. FOR THE TRUCKERS. The AtUntlo Coast Line Will Ban Fast Expreaa Viom Wilmington to SewZ York tov Aooommodata Sntppra. A Warsaw correspondent of the Clin ton Democrat writes as follows The Wilmington and Weldon Rail road has declined the request of the Eastern North Carolina Truck Associa tion to handle two lines of refrigerator cars in order to seenre by competition a reduction of tbe present excessive freight rates by refrigerator cars. Traffic Manger Emerson assigns as his reason for deny ing the request that it would require tbe naming ot two cars lor one car load of freight, thereby doubling expenses of the company in handing refrigerator cars. "To accommodate truckers a through express train, consisting of ten express cars, will be run daily from Wilmington to Mew York,, carrying produce into New York at 8 o'clock on tbe following morning, about three hours earlier than has been -the case heretofore. This ser vice will deliver same day's berries on the New York market twenty-ooe hours .earlier than refrigerator cars. y Tne ex press people will probably make-red oc- tionsin freight rates next season tp in duce large shipments tv express. . .
