An English syndicate is talking of erecting a building to cover an area of 300 feet, fifty stories or 700 feet high, to cost from $12, 000,000 to $15,000,000. To give it ground grip it is proposed to make the foundation fifty feet deep Tun ing into the solid rock. Wbat a daisy place the roof would bs for the boys to fly kites. A Havana letter says- that Gen. Weyier has consented to release mam ouisiaa ot tne aomimon of Spain, a condition which Rivera accepts. In fact he has , been trying to get out of the dominion of Spiin for some time, and has been doing some pretty hard fighting for It. He is to be re leased on the 24th inst, and will come to this country. ; - Hon. W. A. Gladstone attributes his longevity to bis habit of taking a daily walk and to giving thirty-two bites to every morsel of food. His stomach has reciprocated- the con sideration shown to it, by relieving it from the necessity ot doing the teeth's work, and has given its pos sessor very little trouble. As an evidence of the life preserv ing qualities of the East Tennessee climate the denizens out there are pointing proudly to Reuben Walker, who has just died at the age of 106, but until a few weeks ago was "able to do hard farm work." Rev. Parkhurst will sojourn in Europe for the Summer, and When he comes back says he will devote "himself exclusively to the pulpit, a commendable resolve which it would be well if some r other "Northern preachers would adopt. Some of the Republican organs consider an export bounty on grain absurd, but they consider an import bounty on grain all right, the twenty- cent tariff on wheat, for icstance, and thus show that thev are absurd. Millionaire Richardson who re cently died in New York never liked to see his name in the pipers. His name has been very much in them since his death, but then he didn't see it. If Grover Cleveland would ex patriate himself and Sugar King Havemeyer would sue and recover about half a million dollars dam ages from Joe Pulitzer, Bro. Dana might pull along and be happy yet. A syndicate has gobbled up all the coal iaads in East Tennessee and Southern Kentucky, except one mine in Kentucky, which the State owns, liven the things under tne ground can't escape the Trusts.

A NUMBER OF SMALL ROBBERIES LAST SUNDAY. Several Bnalnew Hooaea and Two Beat- deooM Batered A 8af Opaned and . ' Plundered of I Coatanta. The wheel of fortune allotted to Wil mington Sunday eight robberies, which was certainly, to say the least, an un usual occurrence. The chief feature of the different burglaries was the bold ness of tbe participants. The following is the Sabbath day record : ' f A Mr. Jno. W. Plummer, Jr., keeps a confectionery store on Princess street, between Front aad Second. During the morning Sunday Mr. T. W. Wood, who occupies part of the store, and Mr. Jno. W. Plummer, Sr., were sitting in the rear of the stote Mr. Plummer reading the morning paper and Mr. Wood sit ting at a deskv pear aa iron safe, wriv lag.' Mr. Wood upon finishing writine arose,' and after locking the safe, which had a combination lock, departed. In the meantime Mr. Archie McLean, of Lumberton, came in the store, and be and Mr. Plummer engaged in a friendly conversation until 12 45 o'clock, when he and Mr. Plummer took their de parture Mr. Plummer going home to dinner and Mr. McLean going to the Orton, where he was stopping during his stay in the city. Mr. Plum mer. before leaving, locked the different doors of the store, but when Mr. Wood returned shortly after 2 o'clock a little over an hour he found one of the doors of the store which opens into a back yard and which only could have been opened from the inside, as It fastens by aa iron brace, open; the door of the com binations afe was also open, and an iron box, which had been ia the safe containing $16.75, taken out of the safe, broken open and robbed of its contents. Investigation showed that entrance had probably been effected by the thief or thieves throujh a broken window of a rear room connecting with the store. A cold chisel was iound near the re cently robbed ' safe, and on the safe three keys, one of which exactly fitted the door of the rear room leading into the back yard. The discovery of the keys made supposition plausible that the thief or thieves! effected aa en trance through that door, and that tbe broken window and a supposed barefoot track whicb could have been more easily manufactured by other means than a foot was the work of a cooJ- headed miscreant. The easy opening of the safe and the utter disregard for t in pennies, which were ia the safe, go to show that the robbery was either done by an expert or one that had by some hook or crook discovered the combina tion of the safe which Mr. Wood is al most positive be set, using tbe one num ber, or day combination, which : If "not operated correctly makes the opening of the lock an impossibility without using the entire combination, or resorting to dynamite or something of a like nature. Of the money in the safe $16 49 belonged to Mr. Jno. W. Plum mer Jr.. and $8.00 to Mr. Wood. . ROBBERY NEXT DOOR. In connection with tbe Plummer rob bery occurred the breaking into of tbe real estate office of Mr. W. M. Cumming- next door to Mr.lPlummer, on the east ern side. Saturday night Mr.W. A. Mc- Gowan, head clerk, left the office about 10 o'clock, after seeing that the doors and windows of the office were securely fastened, but Mr. Tom Myers, who also woiks for Mr. Camming, happened to go to the office about 8.80 o'clock Sunday afternoon, a short while after the dis covery of the robbery at Mr. Plummet's, and found that the appearance of Mr. Cumming's office showed decided signs of a recent visit from some thief or thieves. ' Drawers of the different desks were open and the contents ransacked but the only thing missing was three keys, which afterwards turned out to be the keys found on the top of Mr. P.um- mer's safe. A broken pane ot glass ia a window of the rear office, opening into an alley, seemed' to tell the story of the entrance. Although the window-pane was broken tbe broken glass was on tbe outside of the window, showing that an expert, assisted by a small boy who could have entered through the hole made, bad been at work, or that an en trance to Mr. Cumming's office bad been made by means of a false key, and the breaking of the wlndow-pane.was only a blind. Luckily for Mr. Cumming, the thief or thieves In their too eager search overlooked five dollars in money which was lying near. V; . C W. YATES STORE ENTERED. Between noon and 5 o'clock 'Sunday tbe book store of Mr. C W. Yates, on Market street, between Front and Second, was entered from the rear, and two money drawers in tbe front part of the store broken open, but nothing ob tained, as Mr. Yates bad taken the '-pre caution to remove the contents upon bis. departure from the store at noon. Tne intruders were evidently not of a literary or artistic turn ol mind, as no books, pictures or other articles were missing An entrance was made by removing without breaking a pane, of glass set ia the skylight over the back room of the store, which fronts into an alley ranning from Front to Second street, and then by breaking open a window m the rear part of tbe store, fastened by means of a wooden bar. A brick wall near the room furnished the means by which the Intruders reached the shed of the room. Upon the roof of the room, which was tinned, could be plainly seen the tracks of two barefooted people one small and one large. .The birglary was discovered by a clerk In tbe store. . MILLINERY ESTABLISHMENT FLVN CERED. - Sunday morning Mrs. Frank Jones, who resides on Dock street, near Second, happened to look out the back way ot her residence and saw the win dows of Mrs. E. M. Shock's millinery establishment, a large roon in the second story of a building oa Second street, near Dock, op jo, and a ladJer, whicb bad been ia the yard, leaning against the building directly under tbe open .; window. Mrs. Tones Im mediately Informed Mrs. Sarah 'Judge, who Is an occupant of the building, of the occurrence. Mrs.' Judge sent word to Mrs, Strock. at Eoen Piner's, Nor 613 ' Princess street, where Mrs. S.rock boards. Upon arriving Mrr. Strock discovered that she. too, had been robbed. A show case, containing a heavy tin money box. was broken open, and the box was missing. The box was, however, found in the yard, with the top cut to pieces, presumably by means of some ' siarp in strument, and its contents, $3 in money, a note for $63. biartig interest at 8 per cent, a certificate from the de funct First National Bank, a gold brace let anl a gold ring, were missing. ' Mrs. Strock left her place of business Satur day night about 10 o'clock. . BARBER SHOF-. ENTERED. . Churchill Moore's barber shop, on Front street, between' Market Sad Dock, was again entered Sunday morning. As of yore the entrance was made through a window, which opaned into a backyard. The money drawer was broken open and robbed of its contents only a five-cent piece with a bole in it. Other drawers were broken open and ransacked. The robbery was discovered Sunday morning about 9 o'clock by Jame a McKathern. colored, a barber in the employ of Moore. OTHER ROBBERIES. The country produce store of Adam Brown, colored, at Front street market. was also robbed Sunday morning. A side window of the store, which leads into the entrance of the .market house was broken open.. The money-drawer was forced opea, and a vain attempt to crack the sale was made. The only articles missing are three boxes of cigars and a toy bank containing a small sum of money. The robbery of this place was discovered Sunday morning at 7 o'clock by one of Brown's sons. Tbe kitchen to the residence of Mr. W F. Robertson, corner Second and Or ange streets, was entered late Saturday night or early Sunday morning, and rob bed ol a qnantity of groceries and ajlamp. A residence in the Southern portion of the city was entered early Sunday morning, and the pantry relieved of most of its contents.
