" ' " . i Another week distinguished for social lethargy has just closed. There has been but one function of especial note. That however, had crowded into the four short hours during which it was in progress enough of pleasure to make up for much of the social languor which characterized the week. The event referred to was the delightful reception and trolley party given j riday mgnt by miss ijettie Johnson, complimentary to her charm ing guest, Miss Fannie McRay, of Summerville. Special reference was made to the event in yesterday's Star. The occasion was graced by many of Wilmington's foremost society folk. The week has marked the close of the seaside season on Carolina Beach and also of the Seashore Hotel on Wrightsville Beach. Quite a number of the cottaeers on Carolina Beach have moved back to their town resi dences. Very few have, however, left Wrightsville Beach as yet The return of Wilmington s representa tives at distant resorts has commenced and within a week or two most all Wilmington society will be at home for the' Fall and Winter season, which promises much eaiety.

Star readers are familiar with the purpose and character of the event. It will be given in the Y. M. C. A. auditorium, somewhere about the 27th inst Miss Cannie Chasten who is in charge of the programme has interested some of Wilmington's most talented musicians as partici pants. Mrs. J. H. Watters will sing. The Munson Quartette Messrs. A- S. and H. K. Holden, Mr. Cooper and Mr. Fowler are to render one or two selections. Miss Foster will partici pate, rendering several violin selec tions. Master James Craft, as pianist, will contribute at least one num ber. Cecelia Quartette, remembered by the music loving public as especially talented vocalists, will sing. Then there is to be a mixed quartette composed of Miss Maie O'Connor, Mrs. James D. Smith, Mr. Banks and Mr. H. K. Holden, all of whom are vocalists of unusual talent and culture. Prof. Wilson and Mr. S. A. Schloss will di rect an orchestra company of a num ber of the best musicians. They will contribute much to the success of the evening. Refreshments are to be served at intervals both in the audi torium and in the refreshment rooms. Miss Chasten is delighted with the readiness with which the people are encouraging her commendable undertaking. A summary of bills audited for pay ment by the county finance committee covering the county's expenses for August will be of interest to the Star's readers who are interested in affairs of local government From the records of Clerk W. P. Oldham it is ascertained that during August the county paid out $454.87 in public charities. Of this amount $275 was distributed through the Associated Charities. The remaining $179.87 was paid to out door poor in monthly allowances and for medicines for char ity patients. In addition to this there was also.$167.70, expense of maintain-! ing the County Home which should also come under the head of public charities. Closely akin to this charity work of the county" and in fact ''part and parcel" with it is the expense of the City Hospital, which as before stated in the Star amounted during August to $462.03; the greater part of which ($264.30) is paid by the county. Thus making really a grand total of $719.17 which the New Hanover county government payed out in public charities during August, or rather this amount has been paid out since September 1st for August allowances and charity ex--pense. Summaries in other headings of county expense for August, as per: bills audited for payment last week, are as follows: Repairs, etc., on public buildings and grounds, $106.52; salaries and fees to county officers, $523.30; repairs, etc., on roads and bridges, $42.64; printing, $22.00; stationery,. $S.60, making a grand total of $1,607.78 county expenses, barring bills to the amount of about $100, which were considered incorrect, the auditing of which is therefore deferred.
