MOONLIGHT EXCURSION.
A Oallshtlol Trip oa tha Sisamar Wil-

Bathing at Oaaaa View.
The evening waa too pleasant and tbe
prospect ol having a good Urns too
bright for people to refrain from going
dowa tbe river on Capt J. W. Harper's
moonlight excursion last night. And
by the time the Wilmington was ached
oled to leave there was a gefod-aised
crowd gathered oa her decks.
The eight was all one could ask a
trifle cool if anything on the Wilming
ton, swept as it. was by the bracing
breeze (rom the ocean. The moon rode
high in the heavens, giving all dne ap
propriateness to the name of the excur
slon.
At the Bsach there was enjoyment
(or all; music and dandng (or those who
Indulged, surf-bathing by the moonlight
(or those to whom that sport has
charms, and quiet, restful watching of
the wild waves, silvered by the rays (rom
the queen of aight, lor the older and
more settled mind.
Tae boat left the beach promptly at
11.80 p. m and landed her passengers
in the city at 19 80 a. after an even
ing most pleasantly spent.
Faiafol AoaideLt to Hr. 17. Paul.
Mr. N. Paul, who has a confectionery
store on Princess street between Second
and Th rd. met with a painful accident
last nigbt.
Mr. Paul resides nearly opposite his
store, and shortly after 8 o'clock started
to walk across tbe s reet from his house
to tbe store, and aout the same time a
street cir. going ap Princess street, and
ah3is3and buggy, coming dowa the
street, approached, and j ist as Mr. Paul
stepp:d from the curb of the
sideealk into the street, ths horse be
cime frightened at the fast approaching
car and commenced to rear aod plunge.
Mr. S. P. Coean, the only occupant of
tbe buggy, perceiving the danger Mr.
Paul was in, halloaed to him, bat the
warning came too late, as the horse ran
by Mr. Paul at a good rate of speed and
one ot the shafts of tbe buggy strack
him in the side, kaockiag him down.
Mr. Paul was not seriously hurt, bat was
considerably bruised. He was carried
to his house, and his injuries attended
to by Dr. T. S Burbank, who fortunately
was a passenger on the street car at the
timeof tbe accideat.
Mr. Paul's injuries are of a painful na
ture and will necessitate his remaining
confined to his house (or two or three
days. Mr. Cowan offered every assist

The outrageous conduct ot a few

on the train, and which resulted in the
stabbing . ot a young man from Hope
Mills, named Horner, by John Bruhert a
Fayetteville boy, ten milea this aide 1 1

heads and bodies. During the height of
the fight knives and pistols were being
flourished in the air. foul eurses were
being shouted from many parts ol the

terrified women. Capt. Donnell, tbe
conductor, with a number of assistants
he had summoned, finally quieted the
riot, but not before Ccpt. Donnell had
been strack a heavy blow In tbe face by
Brnner. whom he arrested. The latter
was taaen before tbe mayor last night
