We are in a fair way to have an assortment of bugs and things in this country.

It strangles its victim and can get away with a mouse in a jiffy. A South Dakota showman has got himself into trouble by swatting a 8rt of "missing link" over-the head with a club and killing it.

Tournament and Bali in Honor of Completion of White ville Warehouse. QUEEN OF LOVE AND BEAUTY Aid Three. Maids of Honor Crowacd by Successful Kaights Thursday Even lot J. B. Scnniken and Wade Wlshart, Esqs., the Orators. ' The tournament and ball at White ville Thursday, in celebration 6T the opening of the spacious new Farmer's warehouse for the sale of leaf tobacco, was an event long to- be remembered by the people of that - section of country. It is estimated that fully 2,500 people participated in the festivi ties. They came from every town ship in Columbus and adjoining coun ties. There were a dozen or more knights who, mounted upon fiery and richly caparisoned steeds and attired cap-a-pie in knightly apparel, strove gal lantly for tournament honors and the privilege of crowning tlheir respective ladies Queen of Love and Beauty. Mr. H. E. Frazier (Knight of Spain) won first honors and cowned Miss Blanche Smith- Queen of Love and Beauty. The second honors were borne off by Mr. E. S. Lewis (Knight of the Red, White and Blue), who bestowed the crown of First Maid of Honor upon Miss Mary Richardson. Mr. A. Baldwin,-(Knight of No Hope) despite the - hopelessness of his name won the honor of chosing the second Maid of Honor and crowned Miss Belle -Jolley for this coveted rank. The third maid of Honor was Miss Fannie Dickson, having been choosen and crowned as such by Mr. Jas. Elkins, who entered the lists as the "Knight of the Twentieth." Among the other knights who en tered the lists were Mr. Bruce Howell, Mr. Manley Toon and Dr. C.E. Hawes. The charge to the knights was elo quently delivered by J. B. Schulken, Esq., and Wade Wishart, Esq., pre sented the crowns to the successful knights. The crowning of the queen and maids of honor was a feature of the brilliant ball held at night in the new warehouse. The music for the occa sion was by the Francisco Italian baud of this city. The delightful tournament and ball Thursday were only a superficial cap stone of pleasure set upon a deep set purpose on the part of the business men of Whiteville and the planters of that section of the country to establish the tobacco industry and make their town and section a chief tobacco cen tre of Eastern Carolina. The crop this year is large and promises excel lent quality. Many of the planters are now curing their crops and are, the Star is glad to note succeeding will. the plants having good body and sat isfactory results in color being ob tained. While the new warehouse is now ready for business, it is not expected that the first sales of leaf tobacco will be held until late in July or early in August. The Stab trusts that the highest degree of success may attend this venture in the tobacco industry, netting handsome returns for planters and warehousemen. FOUR EXCURSIONS YESTERDAY.

ABERDEEN. Game Was Slow and Declared for WII mington in a Score of 9 to 0. The game of base ball at Hilton j Park yesterday afternoon between the Wilmington nvnei and a team com posed of Wilmington and Aberdeen players,, as on the occasion of the Wil mington-Aberdeen game Thursday afternoon, was slow and uninteresting. Sweeney, who has on more than one occasion contributed greatly to Wil-. mington's success on the diamond, was in the box for the visitors and was at his best yesterday afternoon. He played the game for Aberdeen and though his support was weak, when the game was called during the last half of the ninth inning, the score stood 3 to 3. For the home team Wood and Mohr composed the battery and did some fine-playing. Sinclair's work on first base was also a feature of the game put up" by the home tossers. In the last half of the ninth inning a dispute arose as to some trivial breach of the rules, and the visitors refused to conclude the game. The umpire promptly announced the re sult 9 to 0 in favor of Wilmington. The Orphan's Coming. M Committees from the different lodges of Odd Fellows in the city have united inextending an invitation to the orphans of the Odd Fellows' Home at Goldsboro to visit Wilmington and the seashore on'.

R. Walker to await trial at the. October term of Brunswick Circuit Court. While it was evident to the jury, the gentle man said, that the killing was justified, those composing it did not consider it within their province to pass upon the guilt or innocenc of Burton and he was turned over to a Justice of the Pence, who committed him in default of bond.
