Members of the Kinstori, Mt. Olive and EUzabeth City divisions will leave for their homes to day. ! . , - In speaking of the voyasre last nie-ht a well known naval j reserve told a Star reporter that the greatest draw back for the boys in the matter of en joying the trip was eatine the 'government strait V rations." The members of the j Wilmington and Southport Divisions, who saw service on the Nantucket dur ing the Spanish-American, war, were sbmewhat better prepared for the change of diet than were the Jlinstoh, EUzabeth City and other Reserves who had never seen service. The cruise extended no further north than Point Lookout, where two days were spent at sub calibre practice. They remained there until Friday, when they put to sea and had various kinds of ship practice and drills.' Sun day was: spent pretty much the same way and on Monday they came off Frying Pan shoals and spent almost the whole day fishing. 1 They lay off the bar Monday night, waiting until yesterday morning to cross over into the waters of the Cape Fear. The Reserves all speak in the highest terms of the officers in charge of the Prairie. It is said that almost the whole crew of Reserves suffered from seasickness during the first two or three days of the cruise. j The cruiser will weigh anchor for Norfolk! to morrow, where she will take another crew of Naval Reserves for a practice cruise.

' The Board of County Commissioners met yesterday morning at 10 o'clock, with the following present: Col. Roger Moore (chairman), Capt. -John Barry, Messrs. jW. F. Alexander, Gabriel Holmes; and D. McEachern. The tax levy for schedule B and C tax as it ap pears in the Revenue and Machinery Act for J.899 was made. No other busi ness of importance was transacted. The levy differs in several particulars from that of 1898. One of the most important is that taxes are levied on several occupations not taxed last year. Bicycle dealers will pay a tax of $10; cotton factors, $15; feather renovators, $5; ice manufacturers, $10; butchers, $7.50; jlaundrymen, $10; photogra phers, $5 ; real estate agents, $15 ; pawn brokers, $50; slot machines, $100 (last year $20) ; coal and wood dealers, $20 (last year taxed according to amount of purchases) ; undertakers, $10 (taxed on purchases last year) horse dealers, $25; auctioneers, $15. The figures above are the county tax alone the State tax is the same, and in the case of horse dealers there is no county tax. . ' j ' .'-..!! Register of Deeds W. H.

QENTNO IVJt WILMINGTON, N. C, WEDNESDAY, MAY 31, 1899. JIM-CROW CARS. The Coast Line ?n RaAioa. the Law Its Superior Car Build Ing Facilities. The Atlantic Coast Line is quite ready for the "Jim Crow" car i law which goes into effect to-morrow, June 1st. Master car builder J H. Davis has now in readiness twenty seven cars which will meet all the re quirements of the law.! The work of dividing the cars began May 15. j To get the cars ready by the required time has necessitated working all! day and a part of the night. The cars wikl be used oa trains 40, 41. 48, 49. 102.1103. 23, 78, branch ! trains, A. & Y. trains and the W. & N. A few of ihk di vided cars are already in use on the. W., C. Sc A. road in compliance with a South Carolina law of two or three years standing. Trains 32 and 75, being yestibuled trains, are exempt The dividing partitions are made, some of quarter sawed oak and some of white ash; In the first class cars the compartments for whites occupies two thirds of the space j and that j for colored people one-third, the reason for this being that not as many of the atter as of the former buy first-class tickets.- The second class cars are! di vided into equal compartments, j In addition- to: the dividing partition it has been necessary to doable the equipment of i water coolers, closets and other conveniences.' The divided cars have been in use on some of! the roads for soma time, for as soon as oae was completed it was put into use and another taken into the shops. V I ; Increase of Facilities. . The ease with which the car building department of the Coast Line has met the recent emergency is only one of many circumstances which go to show the superior facilities for turning ' cars. These1 facilities have been out in- sed three-fold. New workmen are being brought in as many as twenty in the last few weeks and hew j . i i . tools and other equipment are being added. i T I i Work has begun only recently on a quick order for 100 flat cars and 100 A. C. D. fruit cars. Passenger cars are built also, and at present a train of vestibuled cars on the Pullman pattern is being built for use on the branch between Denmark and Augusta. IN EFFECT T0-M0 RROWp The Redaction In Class Rates Putting Wilmington On An Equal Footing With Sister Cities 1st, the Atlantic To morrow. June new Coast freight rates on the Line and the ! Southern Railway go into effect, and wholesale merchants naturally are expecting an improve ment m business. i 1 The cause of the reduction, as read ers of the star -are aware, was the petition brought before the North Carolina Corporation Commission by the Wilmington. Tariff Association, asking for equal rates! with Norfolk and Richmond on all j points of the Southern Railway west, north land south of Greensboro, j Without I the intervention of the Corporation Com mission, the Atlantic Coast Line and the Southern Railway gave the! de sired rates, the Southern's acquiescence being due to a i considerable extent to the efforts of Mr. T. M. Emerson, Traffic Manager of the Atlantic Coast Line,: in behalf of Wilmington. J By this reduction of rates Wilming ton's ! territory is largely increased. Mr. James Kyle, General Manager of the Traffic Association, estimates on a rough calculation that the section of country in which Wilmington j Can now ! compete ! with Richmond and Norfolk in products common to all three cities is increased by fully a third. Among these products are fer tilizers, salt, peanuts and probably coffee and sugar. Wholesale merchants; will be quick to take advantage of the improved outlook. Their travelling salesmen will soon be making visits to towns and cities in Western North Carolina, where previously representatives of concerns in other cities! have had the whole field to themselves. Will Run Two Hotels. Mr3. Mayo will open the new Ocean View! hotel on Wrightsville Beach June 5th. Messrs. Schloss & Nathan, by whom the hotel is being erected, expect the carpenters and painters to complete their work not later than Saturday of this week. Contracts have already been awarded for j the furniture, so there will be no delay to speak of on that score. In the mean time Mrs. Mayo has already opened the old Ocean View Hotel, the one she has managed so satisfactorily during past seasons, it being her purpose to run both houses this season; one on a cheaper plan than the other. Released on a Condition. James Alston, the negro tramp locked up Monday for safe keeping, was before the mayor yesterday morn- inar for vaerancv. On his promise to leave the city and not return he was released. He claims to be from South Carolina and owing to his suspicious conduct is believed to have committed some crime.! He has been lying around in the woods where, he says, some of his clothes are now hidden. Quarterly Conference Last Saturday at the Quarterly Con ference of scott's Hill circuit, . M. E. Church.
