An- Unsiail Record of Alarms in Quick Succession Slight Damage. Three alarms of fire were turned in ' from as many different boxes yesterday morning within the short period of ten minutes. The total damage from all three fires, thanks to the prompt work of the fire department, however, amounted to less than $150. The first alarm was from box 45 at 11.28 o'clock. The fire was at 510 South Front street, the residence of Mr. Wilkes Morris. A spark igniting the root or the kitchen wa3 the cause of the fire. The damage was about $50, covered by insurance with Messrs. Walter ana Metts. The scene of the second fire was at No. 705 Nixon street, a negro tene ment, owned by the Chadbourn Lum- k fimnanv A stiark set fire to thmnf of the tenement.

Address PROPOSED RAILWAY LINE TO SOUTm'ORT. Survey Began Yesterday, Bat Whether for the Railroad or Real Estate Par chase is Unknown. Speculation has been rife for sev eral weeks as to just what are the in tentions of the corporation of Phila delphia capitalists who were recently granted a charter for the building of n railway from this city to Southport and for the establishment of a coaling station at the latter point. Those in authority who have boon here and at Southport for some time. are very reticent in speaking of their plans for the future, beyond that the railroad will certainly be built and that, too, in the near future. Mr. Charles N. Wire, of Philadel phia, one of the chief promoters of the enterprise, has been in the city for several weeks conferring with local engineers acquainted with the. lay of the proposed route, and this week he was joined by Engineer Coe, a Northern gentleman, who is also looking over the ground. Both went down to Southport this week to look after that end of the line, and a gentleman residing at Southport, who came up on last evening's boat, in conversation with a reporter of the Star, said that a party of engineers had begun a sur vey, starting from near the steamer lYilmington's wharf, but whether for the line of railway or for a proposed purchase of real estate at Southport he was unable to say. He stated that he was interested enough to inquire as to the survey being made, but that the promoters preferred at the present to make none of their plans known to the public. It is surmised that the new com pany are after purchasing the fran chise and the ten miles already grad ed along the proposed route of the old company, which went to pieces some years ago. However, this is all a matter of speculation thus far. CAROLINA CLUB HOUSE MAY NOT BE CLOSED. To Have "Open House" All the Winter. The Race and Dance To-day The Building Plans. This afternooon at 4:30 o'clock the September race by the Carolina Yacht Club will be sailed over the club course in Banks channel. Six yachts, among the very best in the club fleet have been entered and in dications are that the race will be a success. The boats which have been entered and their captains, are as fol lows: Emma, Captain J. S. Worth ; Eu genia, Captain George Harriss; Ques tion, Captain R. A. Parsley; Curleiv, Captain Ray Powell ; Lillian Florence, Captain 3. P. Cowan; Sprite, Captain H. B. Peschau ; No. Fifty, Captain F. A. Lord. The rules of the course requira that all yachts shall be reported at the club house not later than 4 o'clock. As announced yesterday there will be two prizes, the first being a set of silver spoons and the second a yachtsman's watch charm. Following the race will be the last Carolina Club dance of the season which promises to prove a highly en joyable occasion. The club house will not be closed for the season during this month as was at one time expected. In fact it is more thau probable that it will not be closed at all, an arrangement be ing on foot by which the club house is to be kept open during the entire Winter. The matter will come up for action on next Tuesday night at the meeting of tne clubmen to be held in the Seaboard Air Line building. It is" confidently expected that Mr. J. C. Walton, the present efficient janitor, will be retained the year round; a number of the cottage owners on either side of the club house sharing the expense of his salary, so that he can look after their cottages in connection with his club house duties. A prominent member of the club said yesterday that the plans for the additional buildings for the club, ac tion upon which is to be taken at the meeting Tuesday night, have been completed and their adoption will most probably be unanimous, so that work will commence within a month most probably.

STEAMER CROESUS BURNED. Destroyed by Fire Wednesday Night While Tied Up at Point Caswell Thos. H. Hawkins Owner. , Mr. D. McEachern received a tele gram yesterday morning from Capt. R. P. Paddison, of Point Cass vr ell, stating that the steamer Croesus, of the river craft, had been totally destroyed by fire on the night previous, while tied up at her wharf in that town. Capt Hawkins, owner of the boat, and Mr. Theodore Sessoms, of Point Caswell, came down to the city on last evening's A. & Y. train, and it was learned from them that the fire occur red early in the night, while the crew was on shore eating alunch. By reas on of her peculiar box build, the boat burned quickly to the water's edge. Capt. Hawkins had no nsurance. The Crossns was a small steam pro peller boat, and was used exclusive ly for towage and freight on the river. She was built in 1896 at Wilmington for Capt. Thos. H. Hawkins, who re sides here, and Mr. Calhoun Freders, of Bladen county. Capt. Nathan Henry was her master. For a day or two she had been en gaged in towing rafts in and around Point Caswell. LEE, THE HYPNOTIST. His Visit to Wilmington Pleasantly An ticipated His Private Entertaimeots and Classes in Hypnotism. The people of Wilmington have many pleasant recollections of the performances of Lee, the hypnotist, at the Opera House last season and genuine pleasure is expressed by a host of people that a return engage ment for all next week is announced for this popular and wonder-working- entertainer.

SUIT AGAINST CAPT. HARPER. Alleged Damages to Amount of $2,000 Asked for Little Girl Who Pell Throagh Hatchway. Messrs. Empie & Empie, attorneys, yesterday morning instituted a suit against Capt J. W. Harper, owner of the steamer Southport, for their client Jno. Hales, who resides near corner Third and Wright streets, this city. The suit is an action for alleged damages and a Star representative learned yesterday from one of the at torneys, that $2,000 will b9 asked for. The complaint, he said, would allege that on or about April 3rd, an eight year old daughter of the plaintiff, while a passenger on the steamer Southport, fell through a hatchway in the att cabin, which was negligently and without warning left open by one of the deck hands, and sustained injury by losing a front tooth and damaged otherwise more permanently. The suit is brought in the name of the daughter by the father as com plainant. Mr. Hales and family were returning from . the funeral of a rela tive at Southport at the time the alleged accident took place. ARRESTED FOR CRIMINAL ASSAULT. John Brown, Colored, Will be Arraigned This Afternoon at Three O'clock. Yesterday morning at 1 o'clock Deputy Sheriffs Flynn and Terry ar rested a negro named John Brown, on a warrant from Magistrate G. W. Price, charging him with criminal assault upon Florence Murphy, a col ored woman who lives in Thompson's alley, between Brunswick, Bladen, Second and Third streets. The deputies were assisted in cap turing Brown by Policemen L. M. Smith and C. E. Wood and Deputy Sheriff Bland. He was found in the house of a colored woman named Becky Moore, who had to be arrested for harboring the criminal before she would admit the officers to the build ing. The offence is alleged to have been committed one week ago, but by fear she says she was deterred from ap prising the officers of the crime until Saturday. Brown was placed in jail to await a hearing before Justice Price at 3 o'clock this afternoon. He stoutly denies his guilt.

A middle aged colored man, who came to town on the excursion yester day, and wh o wound up the day's fes tivities with a spree, was run over by one of the Atlantic Coast Line'sshift ing engines in the yard just below Fourth street bridge about 7 o'clock ast night and his leg crushed off about four inches below the knee joint. The negro, whose name could not be learned either from the railroad people or from the City Hospital authorities, where he was afterwards sent for treatment, wandered down the track while waiting at the depot for the return of the excursion, and without cause began violently abusing and cursing the railroad watchman on duty there. The watchman called to Policeman Guy, who was passing on the bridge, to come down and arrest the negro, but before the officer could reach him, he.stepped in front of a shifting en: gine with the result before stated. Dr. C. D. Bell at first attended him, but after being sent to the Hospital Dr. D. W. Bulluck, the Coast Line surgeon, and Dr. Bolles, superintend ent of the hospital, examined the wound and found an amputation necessary, which they performed, tak ing off the leg just above the knee. The negro is employed on a trestle force or '.'floating gang" of the Coast Line and came down from Whiteville on the negro excursion yesterday. No blame is attached to the engineer or fireman on the engine which did the damage. PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS. Mr. F. M. Foy, of Scott's Hill, was here yesterday. Mr. R. P.

There was a large audience at the Wilmington Opera House lastmight to witness the presentation of the pop ular play "A Lady of Quality," the lead. ing role of which Clarinda Wildairs, is ably interpreted by Miss Eugenie Blair who has established an enviable reputation as an actress. This was the second performance the company has given this season, their "first evening" having been in Norfolk Wednesday, night. The play was very well present ed, particularly the third and fourth acts when the versatile historian power of Miss Blair is eiven widest scope in thwarting the crafty plans of Sir John Oxon. Another notable climax in Miss Blair's role was in theose garden scene (second act) when she spurned John Oxon, her erstwhile over. Several members of Miss Blair's company were very good, n"otably Miss Ida May Park, as Annie Wil dairs; Mr. William Bramwell, as Sir John Oxon, and Mr. Lee Baker, as Duke of Osmonde. Mr. John Suther- and also played the Chaplain well nigh to perfection. Of course, however, Miss Blair was by long odds the particular star of the company in the matter of histronic power, as well as in that she inter preted the leading role. AFTER COLORED RECRUITS.
