We don't know what Mr. Bryan's financial resources are, but it seems to us he started bat brash when he sent that Iowa baby which was called after him a $100 silver certificate. With such encouragement the young Bryans are in danger of increasing so rapidly as to get away with his stock of certificates. It will not do to bank too much on the fact that Mr. Heitfelt who has been elected U. S. Senator from Idaho, never made a speech although serving several times in the Legisla ture. When he gets to Washington where he can have his speeches written for $5 apiece it may be different.- . Mr; Gage, who is to be Secretary of the Treasury, says he voted for McKinley "with both hands " This expression would not justify the conclusion that Mr. Gage voted more than once, but there was a good deal of two-banded voting for McKinley, all the same. - We knew tbat times were bard in Georgia but didn't think they were hard enough to make tbe"State shrink up until we saw the statement in the Atlanta Constitution that in eighty three counties there were 722,205 acres less of land returned for taxation than in 1895. That was a Pennsylvania sheep and not an Ohio sheep that grew the wool that Mr. McKinley's inaugu ration salt is to be built out of. This looks like going back on Buckeye dam when the Keystone bucks are given such preference. HEW ADV JSttTlHKJHKNT8. . Proposals Solicited. J. F. Garrell & Co Notice.

In the face Of the very inclement weather, a large and most appreciative audience greeted tbe Edouard Remenyl Grand Concert Company in the audito rium of the Young Men's Christian As sociation last nlgbt. From beginning to end the audience was held spell bound by tbe superb singing of Miss Florence Adler, a most gifted soprano, who was assisted in a perfect manner by Miss Florida Parsons, as a pianist of rare merit,; and by Edouard Remenyl, tbe world-renowned violinist. Every selection of tbe programme was encored, and each participant re sponded in a good natured manner, which was truly appreciated by the au dience. It is needless for us to offer any criti cism oh Remenyi, for this name is asso ciated with only the masters of music, Miss Pars ins' performing on the piano was without a fault, and won for her tbe sincerest praise of the audience. Too much praise could not -be given iss Adler for a soprano soloist. She is grand, her voice is rich; fall of melody and cultivated to perfection.- She is tbe personation of grace, and her gracious and her lovely manners; combined with her melodious voice, completely enrap tured her hearers, and received a most hearty encore after every selection.' Remenyi' has always been one of Wil mington s favorites, and bis concert ot last night has made many more ad mirers to his already numerous friends. The concert was given free to the members of the Association.

Howell, Jr., appeared before the Board and asked that the Young Men's Christian Association be exempt from tax. Marsden Bellamy, Erq.. the Board's attorney, said he thought the. Board had a right, under the law, to exempt the Young Men's Christian Association from taxation, as tbe money realized from tbe rental of the stores was used for Christian and charitable purposes. Under instructions from the Board Mr. Bellamy drafted tbe following reso lution, which was adopted and ordered on file :. 1 It appearing to the satisfaction of the Board that tbe tax assessors of New Hanover county having pot on the tax books of the county of New Hanover for tbe year 1898 the property of bt.

' ? After some discussion the application was not allowed. J. A. Hewlett was granted; a license to sell liquor at Ocean View beach. Upon tbe recommendation of Com missioner Alexander, cf tbe Bridges and Roads Committee, the bid for re pairing tbe bridge over Hewletts creek was awarded to D. W.

Tbat the real estate agents of the city of Wilmington be and they are hereby requested to submit propositions to this Board for the purchase of tbe property owned by the county, at the northeast intersection of Market and Third streets, and at the northwest intersection of Third and Princess streets, with a view of effecting a sale of tbe same. On motion, $400 was appropriated for the continoauce of the county road in Harnett township, under the personal supervision of Commisiioner Alexander. Mr. W. H.

The Suson Comedy Company played their second night's engagement at tbe Opera House last night. "Nannette" was the play presented, with the charm ing little actress, Miss Esther Wallace, in tbe title role. Miss Wallace has a peculiar way of captivating the hearts of the audience, and last night she used this talent to the best advantage. Tne inimitable Oscar P. is son ap peared as William A , the big boy, and was equal to the emergency. This char acter is well known to the Wilmington theater-goers, and the way Mr. Sisson renders it, to use a trite expression, it would make a horse laugh. He kept the audience, by his comical action, con vulsed with laughter all tbe time. Two of the favorites of the evening were Mr. Walt Fleming, as Sir Arthur Raleigh, and Miss Sophy Alberts, as Leonora St. Clair. Mr. Fleming and Miss Alberts both had the correct con ception of their parts. Mr. Jackson Karlyle, as Mr. Bokus, ruled over by Mrs Bokus, Miss Dorothy Reepne, and Joseph A. Kerr, as Harry St Clair, deserve special mention, s does also Mr. Jay L. Packard.as Don lose. Pleasing singing specialties were in troduced throughout the play. Miss Wallace's rendition of Joseph A. Kerr's latest success, ' The Forsaken Child," received a double encore. To night the company will present the musical comedy, "Wild Oats." A spe cial matinee will be given this afternoon.
