There Were Many Quests With Powdered Hair and in Evening JDress. THRONGED SEASHORE HOTEL. Given Complimentary to Young Lady Cot facers Last Nijht Enjoyable Con cert at Ocean View Hotel by the Second RegimeaTBand. Large -numbers of people from the city went to Wrightsville Beach again last night to spend the evening, the special attractions being the BaX Pou dre at Seashore Hotel and the Second Regiment Band concert at Ocean View Hotel. Both events were highly en joyable. Indeed the Bal Poudre was one of the most brilliant and thoroughly en joyable events that has transpired on the beach this season. As a social suc cess it surpassed even the most san guine expectations of those by whom it was planned. The affair was given under the aus pices of the Seashore Hotel manage ment by the young lady guests com plimentary to the ladies residing in the Beach cottages. Invitations weres issued to many people in the city 'as well and there were well nigh 200 par ticipants. y The ladies were handsomely attired in evening dress and had their hair powdered and done up according to the most approved Bal Poudre style. The gentlemen were not one whit be hind the ladies in the matter of the ap propriateness of their costumes, their hair being amply powdered and a large majority of them being in evening dress. The dancing was in the dining room and the music was by the Balti more Italian Band which is employed by the Hotel for the season. The dancing continued from about 9:30 o'clock until well into the wee sma' hour?, the guest from the city having, however, left at 11 o'clock when the last train left the Beach for the city. The Band Concert. The Second Regiment Band concert attracted a large crowd to the New Ocean View Hotel last night. The concert was given immediately after the supper was served. The pro gramme was published in yesterday's Stab and was rendered in that excel lent manner for which the Band is so justly popular. Altogether it was a thoroughly pleased crowd of passengers which the Wilmington Sea coast train brought from the Beach last night, the de licious "seafood" suppers served at Seashore and Ocean View Hotels and the delightful Bal Poudre and grand concert at the respective hotels having ministered very successfully to the pleasure of every attendant. A HIGHLY PRIZED GIFT. Bible Presented a Volanteer Soldier In the Name of the First Baptist Church Last Night. There was quite an interesting ser vice in the lecture room of the First Baptist church last night. It was the regular weekly prayer meeting and the especial feature was a farewell to Mr. Joseph N. Britton, a member of the Baptist Boys' Brigade, who has volunteered in the army and expects soon to leave for the Philippines. Dr. Black well, by whom the service was conducted, called Mr. Britton to the rostrum and presented to him a substantially bound Bible of con venient size. The presentation was in the name of the church and the Bible bore the inscription : "Presented to Joseph N. Britton by the First Bap tist Church, Wilmington, N. C, of which he is a member." - After the presentation service young Britton was escorted to the Bonitz House, which is volunteer headquar ters during enlistment, by a detach ment of the Baptist Boys' Brigade, among them being Willie Muse, Jas. Everett, Ben White and Arthur 8ykes. At the Recruiting Office. Three was the number of volunteers enlisted for Philippine service at the recruiting office yesterday. The en listments are Henry P. Merritt, Caleb P. Lockey, Jr., and Albert A. Mat thews, the last named being formerly a member of the Third regiment, U. S. Volunteers. The three were among the number of applicants Wednesday who had not stood the physical examina tion. Wm. L Smith, and Oliver B. Skipper, two other applicants, failed to put in their appearance for physical examination yesterday and conse quently their applications are still open. James N. Britton, one of those enlisted Wednesday, went to Onslow county yesterday in search of recruits. Commercial Literature. Books and pamphlets, like consular and commercial reports, received by the Chamber of Commerce, have been placed by the president on the tables in the Merchants' Association rooms, where they can be inspected by the members of local commercial bodies. Much valuable information can be found in these reports. The rooms of the Merchants' Association are bpen all dav. and Mr. P. Heinsberger, the secretary, will take pleasure in show ing the books to any member who ia interested in such literature.

C. r MORN WILMINGTON, N. 0., MAXTON "RED SHIRTS" ARE VERY. BOASTFUL; They Say Invite the Pnblic Out Satnrday to See Wilmington's Colors Trail In the Dust. All the sports and others in Wil mington 'who really appreciate base ball liberally fired with ginger and served in a scientific manner are con fidently anticipating a great treat when tne Wilmington and Max ton teams cross bats on the Hilton Park diamond to-morrow. The Wilmington team will, as announced yesterday, be com posed of the very best material that is available in Wilmington. Refer ring to the game, the Stab's valued friend, Mr. A. J. McKinnon, who is managing the Maxton "Red Shirts," writes the Stab, under date of July 27th, as follows : "You may say to your people that we have tried to strengthen all the weak points on our team since we were there last month and the lovers of the sport may be sure that if we are beaten they will see a game of ball that would be a credit to New York or any other city, "Unless your team is strengthened you may just simply invite the public to come out to Hilton Saturday at 4 o'clock to see Wilmington's would-be champions' colors trail in the dust. This is big talk, but I have the team to back the talk." Referring to the Wilmington players it will be of interest to note that Dupree, of Spartanburg, S. C, who pitched in the Wofford College, S. -C., team this season will be in the box. He comes with a splendid reputation as a "ball tosser" and no doubt will win new laurels for himself in to morrow's game. "Frilzy" Zellers will receive him. Brunson will cover the initial bag, Alston will clean the gar den spot of the diamond, Schutte will look after the third corner and Morton will be found at short stop. In the out field, Pennington, Orrell, Genaust and Jones will look after anything that might stop that way. Hiser, who pitched for Fort Caswell, has been written for, and if he comes a place may be tound for him. He is a good pitcher and handles the stick well. The game will be called promptly at 4 P. M The regular admittance fee will be charged. VITRIFIED BRICK. Por Street Paving It Gives Perfect Satia tion in Norfolk. Several years since, the Stab tried hard to prevail on our city authorities to at least experiment with vitrified brick for street paving; but we failed to accomplish. In this connection, the annexed editorial from the Nor folk Landmark is interesting: Unless we are greatly deceived. vitrified brick, when properly laid. makes the most satisfactory all round street paving. Those sections or Norfolk which are paved with it are a joy to the eye of the beholder and a delight to the sys tem of the driver of wagon or carriage. As to bicyclists, their praise is unani mous and enthusiastic. With vitri fied brick street paying there is no necessity for bicycle-paths, in favor or which there is a erowinc movement in all the large cities where the pave ments are not uniformly smooth. It is said that the vitrified brick will last as long as Belgian block. Certain it is that in all places where the brick has been laid in this city it has with stood the ravages of traffic wonder fully, even maintaining its smooth ness to a degree not approached by any other material used in the city, with the exception of well-laid asphalt. Give us more vitrified brick and make us happy. Florence's Negro Postmaster. A gentleman who was in the city yesterday from Florence, S. C, says that the white people of his progres sive little city are much incensed over the appointment of J. E. Wilson, a negro preacher, as postmaster there in place of Mr. J. S. McKenzie, the Dem ocratic incumbent, who has given general satisfaction. The negro Wil son has previously held the position of postmaster there, the Stab's in formant says, but it has been the proud boast of Florence people for several years that their city is now a "white man's town" and they dislike very much to bear the odium of re lapsing into conditions existing there when the larger per cent, of the city's population was colored. Wilson has been in Washington for much of the time since his appointment. Ran Over Small White Boy. About 6 o'clock yesterday afternoon Mr. G. W. Beaman, who was riding his bicycle in the vicinity of Fifth and Castle streets, accidentally ran over Ruf us Hodges, a 9-year old lad, who was playing in front of the residence of his grandmother on Fifth street. The little fellow sustained only slight injuries, which received attention at Dr. Stokes' drug store. Mr. Beaman works at Capt. Preston Cumming's wood manufacturing plant, and says his attention was diverted from his pathway just as the boy came in front of the wheeh Up-country People. Messrs. E. A. Muse and wife, of Hamlet; C. B. Honeycutt, wife and two children; M. J. Adams, wife and two sisters; Will Parish, Will Ken dall and sister, of Raleigh; J. R. Brooks, of Hamlet, and Misses Lilia and Laura Howie, of Monroe, com posed a party of young people who came down on the Seaboard Air Line yesterday to spend a while at the beaches. - The East Carolina Real Estate Agency will sell for cash, or will ex change for desirable house and lot in Wilmington, a farm of 272 acres, three miles from Rose Hill. Address R. G. Grady & Co., Burgaw, N. C. t NG FRIDAY, JULY 28, 1899, THE FIGHT AGAINST v POSTMASTER CHADBOURN. The Report That He Has Resigned Not Credited by Those in Position to Know Best. It has been known for several days, and in fact weeks, in political and newspaper circles here, that consider able trouble is being made for Post master W. H. Chad bourn, of the Wil mington office, in the Postoffice De partment at Washington by certain prominent members of his own the Republican) party in this State, but it has not and is not now believed by those who should be in a position to know best that the fight will result seriously for Postmaster Chadbourn; that is, it is not believed by them that his enemies will succeed in ousting him from his office, as appears to be their intention. Interest in the fight was consider ably quickened yesterday by a report current about the city during the forenoon that Mr. Chadbourn had on last Friday forwarded his resigna tion to the Post Office Department at Washington. Referring to the report Mr. Chadbourn told a member of the Stab staff that he had nothing whatever to say regarding the matter. The fact is, Mr. Chadbourn"Eas de clined to discuss any matter pertain ing to the fight since its inauguration. A number of his most intimate friends and several also who are not his friends but who ought to know, ex pressed the opinion that there was no truth in the report As "is well known the principal charges reported as being urged against Mr. Chadbourn -are some al leged irregularities in his recent suc cessful efforts to have the Wilming ton Postoffice advanced from the second to the first class. RICE VS. GANNON FOR HULL INSPECTORSHIP. P. B. Rice Claims to Have Received Ap pointment As W. H. Gannon's Suc cessor As Steamboat Inspector. Some interest attaches o the fight which is on between Mr. F. B. Rice, of this city, and Capt. W. H. Gannon, of Charleston, for the position of Government steamboat hull inspector, Rice, it appears, having recently re ceived at least a temporary appoint ment to this position, efficiently filled by Capt. Gannon for eight years or more. Both were in the city yester day, returning from Newborn, where they made official inspections in com--pany with Capt. GroDtne, the associate boiler inspector. " Referring to the matter Capt. Gan non said he would continue to dis charge the duties of the office until Mr. Rice presents authentic pa pers showing his appointment as his (Captain Gannon's) successor. On the other hand Rice contends -that he has tendered Capt Gannon tne document showing his appointment on several occasions, notably at the Char lott custom house and at the depot in the same city and on each occasion he refused to even look at the docu ment. Capt. Gannon and Capt Groome left Wilmington for Charles ton yesterday afternoon and it is un derstood that Mr. Rice will go to Charleston to-day where some definite settlement will be arrived at Most probably Mr. Rice will present to Capt. Gannon his certificate of ap pointment and will take charge of the office jointly with Capt Groome, Jt is not known who will be Mr. Rice's successor in the custon house here. Excursion from Rowland. A party of about 350 excursionists arrived at 11.10 o'clock yesterday morning over the Atlantic Coast Line fgom Rowland, N. C, and interven ing points on the "Short Cut" and W. C. & A. railroads. The train con sisted of five cars, but on the return yesterday evening at 7 o'clock two extra cars were attached to the train for the better convenience of the pas sengers. Most 'of the excursionists made short visits to Carolina and Wrightsville beaches, while others spent the day in the city. Mr. C. S. Herring, of Dillon, S. C, was the general manager, assisted by local managers at the different points from which the excursion came. Mr. W. W. McCormao, of Rowland, was among the number of local man agers A Kissing Bug. The Stab has received a kissing bug transfixed with a pin from "a young man around town," with the follow ing: This is a kissing bug. After kissing several young ladies, through an over sight he kissed Miss and died from shock. In a state of bliss, An old maid he kissed; But the old maid was wise, With her number nine, She broke his spine, And hence his early demise. Another Excursion to Norfolk. Laurinburg Exchange: "An excur sion will be run over the S. A. L. from Wilmington to Norfolk on the 15th of August The train leaves Wil mington on the morning of the 15th at 12.05, and is due at Norfolk at 12 o'elock the same day. Fare for round trip, $2.50. Separate cars for whites and blacks. Round trip fare from Norfolk to Baltimore is 13.25." To City Snbscrfbera. City subscrinera are earnestly re quested to report promptly at the Stab office every failure of the camera to deliver their papers. In all such cases steps will be taken to insure promp and regular delivery Emm THE INITIAL GAMES. By Athletic Association Team to be Played Next Week. BE PITTED AGAINST TARB0R0 On Thursday, Friday and Saturday Work of Organization Progressing Satisfac torily Will Import Seyeral Strong Players. It is now settled that the initial games of base ball to be played by the team being organized by the Wilming ton Athletic Association will be with the Tarboro team, which is, by the way, reputed to be one of the very strongest anywhere in the State. There will be a series of three games with Tarboro, played, on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of next week on the Hilton Park diamond, the ar rangements having been made yester day between the management of the Tarboro team and the officers of the Athletic Association by j telegraph. All possible haste is being made by the Athletic Association management in the matter of securing the very best available material in the formation of the new team, and there is no doubt that they will have gotten together an especially strong team in time for the games next week. There will be a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Athletic Association at 8.30 o'clock to-night in the office of President W. F. Robertson, upon which all the base ball players are ex pected to be in attendance. Some idea of the strength of he Tarboro team which the asso ciation has to prepare to vanquish, if possible, may be gathered from the fact that they have a trio of pitchers of exceptional ability, all well known in Wilmington. They are Kenna, Warren and Withers. Then, too, the in-field for Tarboro will be quite strong. They have "Bill" Fenner, whose good work in Wilmington a year ago is well re membered by "fans" - here. Phil. Meade and Phillips, both of whom are known as A 1 players are on the Tarboro team. However, in the language of a well known Wilmington base ball enthu siast "Let Tarboro corneas strong as they may the Athletic Association will be thoroughly prepared to give them all and more than they can cope with." Residents of Wrightsville and the Beaoh will be glad to learn that the management of the Athletic Associa tion on yesterday made an arrange ment by which people who are sum mering there who desire to attend the base ball games can buy tickets for fifty cents which will entitle them to a round trip on the Seacoast roadpd admission to the base ball games. These tickets will be sold on each after noon that ball games are played. BY RIVER AND RAIL. Receipts of Naval Stores and Cotton Yesterday. W. & W.
