The acrobatic aad gymnas tic performances were exceptionally good, the acting of the aerahsts alone being richly worth the price of admis sion. The antics and intelligence dis puted by the trained dogs and horses were really remarkable, and by no means two of tbe lesst interesting features of the performmces. A light of Gypsy, the largest elephant in captivity aad her baby Barney, proved a great treat for tbe little ones la particular, sharing with the beautiful midget ponies the aimoet undivided attention ol tbe youngsters. The jokes of tbe clowns were new as a role and tbe fuo makert appeared to be in high favor with the spectators.

Campbell testified: '-Saturday September 18th, 1897. (the day the alleged asiaalt took place ) I came down from' aloft and so did Clark and Soy- moor; Seymour and myself coming down on the starboard side and Clark on tbe port side. Clark came around on tbe starboard side and I beard him and Miller talking, bat I did not hear what they were saying at that time. I then beard Miller tell Clark, that he (Clark) bad better go away from bim; that if he didn't be would fix bim quick. I turned around and saw Miller punching Clark with his fists. I beard Miller cry, 'I am cut,' and I saw a knife in Clark's hand." G. Seymour testified : "I am a seaman on the schooner William M. Bird. On September 18;h, 1897, while our vessel was lying at quarantine, eight bells were struck for dinner by the mate, and we were told to come down from alolt. Clark, Campbell and myself came down. and I went into the forecastle, leaving Clark and Campbell on deck. Miller was standing by the forecastle house clean ing some tar oS his hands, and I heard him tell Clark to go away, for if be didn't he wootddohim np quick. I heard them both quarrelling on deck. and ran oot to pacify them. Miller said he was cat, and I saw that what he said was true." The condition yesterday of Miller, the iajared- casa, was aboat the same, and no doubt he will recover. , Clsrk, the accused, now states that he cat Miller in self-defence, as the latter struck bim with his fist and started to assault him with a marlinspike.

' Yesterday was another bad one. There was a drixzling rain pretty nearly all day, and It was accompanied by wind enough to. make it extremely disagree able. The storm was the prevailing topic of conversation, quite as much so as if it had bad really come. Tbe residents of Wrigbtsville beach, or those woo hadn't abandoned their Summer homes the nig tit before, has tened up yesterday in response to warn ings from tbe Weather Bureau. There were some eight or ten families who came op, some for good and others to remain until the stormy weather is at an end. About 10 o'clock yesterday morning the weather at tbe beach was threaten ing. It was time for low tide, but there wasn't the slightest fall, and the sea was alarmingly heavy while the sky was overcast with clouds. The tide was highest about 4.80 o'clock in the afternoon, though even tbenit was not high enough to excite any serious fears At 8 o'clock last evening Mr. Strong, local forecast official at the Wilmington station, said : "The West India storm bas moved slowly north daring the day and Is central to-night over the Southern North Carolina coast. It extends in a narrow trough from Augusta to Hat teras, with the centre nearly over this locality. Heavy rain has fallen daring the day over Eastern Geor gia and South Carolina, and moderate rains over North Carolina. The storm bas decreased decidedly in energy, and winds are light to brisk around tt. Tbe high area continues over the Northeast portion of the couatrr. A low area is developing over the western portion ot the Ohio valley, with high temperatures prevailing under it over Illinois and Missouri. It is generally fair and warmer ever the interior ol the country. The storm will probably continue nearly sta tionary over this section to-night, mov ing off Thursday, increasing 'then tn force."

Gllmcre, ' Colored Man, Create Xxaitement at Fayctteville Iiaagha at Danger. Fayetteville Observer Robin Hood, or Jesse James, are to be considered aa sheep in comparison to the audacity of our own king ot the out laws, a little negro man named Alex. Gilmore. A more audacious scamp was never dreamed of in the mind of the most vivid fiction writer. Gilmore was in the heart of the city yesterday evening, when information to this office reached Chief of Police flow ers and Township Constable Maaltsby. These two officers and Constable Fair- cloth, of Cedar Creek, who kaows Gil more well, started In pursuit. They caught sight of him on Grove street, near Frank Willlston's house, bat Gilmore was on tbe lookout too. and as soon as he spied the officers he took to the woods along tbe banks ot Cross Creek like a deer. All trace of him wis soon lost in the darkness Gil more was warned of the approach of tbe officers, as a man was seen running to- rards htm jast before the officers hove in sight. Tnis man, an outlaw, witn a Dig price set for his capture, seems to throw him self at danger aad then withdraw in its teeth for tbe laugh it may give bim. une day he is found riding on the wagon of the man he had robbed, another he is found at the 111I conversing with his brother: again, he is at the circus, and yet again he is seen patrolling tne streets and often he is found in conver sation with the inhabitants of his native place, Cedar Creek, Oae Cent a Wore Hereafter advertisements to go In our Business Locals" department will be charged one cent per word for each in sertion 1 but no advertisement, however short, will be taken for less than 20 cent This is a redaction from former rates and it is also a convenience to adver ser who can calculte the exact cost of their advertisements, which must be paid for always in advance 3 NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. t:lls "w AT The Unlucky Corner.
