WtLMINGTON, N. C., WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER Bid ENTERPRISE AT FAISON. Work Beron by the Rowland Lumber Com pany 0a IU Two Baud Saw Mill sod FortyVuHe Railroad. sfr Mr. George W. Jones, general' manager of the Rowland Lumber Company, of Norfolk, was in the city yesterday. Mr. ' Jones was seen by a. Stab man yesterday nd was asked about the b g enterprise which his company has on fo t at Faiaou, Duplin county, N. C. The co-npany has bought a large area of fine timbsr lands in Duplin and- will not oily establish a big lumber manufactory at.Faison but will build a railroad from twenty five t) forty miles through a section of country that now has no railroad facilities. Mr. Jones U a very modest man and didn't want to appear as blowing, but he did tell the Stab that his com pany has gone to work in earnest to carry out its plans at' Faison. The first thing the company will do is -to build a standard gauge railroad from FaisDu through the western part of Duplin county, so as to tap its fine long leaf pine lands. The road will b9 from twenty-five to forty miles in length, and will afford transportation facilities to a flue section of Duplin county. The survey for the road is now being made, the right of way is being cut and cross-ties are being got ten out Grading will sooa be com menced aad it is expected that the road will be ready for operation in about four months. - The Rowland company in the mean time will erect a modern, up to date, thoroughly equipped two band saw, and planing mill, dry kilns, etc., at the town of Faison. The mill will have a capacity for cutting 100,000 feet of lumber per day. The material for the mill is now being gotten out. This enterprise means a great deal for Faison and Duplin county. The mill and railroad will employ about two or three hundred hands and the road will develop a- section of Duplin county that is noted for its timber and agricultural resources. THE GREAT FAIR. ( Only Six Days Remain Till the Great Ma sonic Bazaar Opens at the Temple. - Only six days until the great Ma sonic Fair will open at the Temple, and continue till December 2nd.

The work of constructing the booths be gan yesterday and to day the decora tors will betfii work. The Mason's committees will do their part of the decorating but the ladies will have charge of the floral decorations. Yesterday Col. Noble F. Martin, the Fair manager, showed a Star rep resentative the donations.- They are piled up in several rooms at the Tern pie and there are probably 1.200 ar ticles, embracing merchandise of every discription. There are many very elegant valuable and costly roods, and those who will attend the fair will be astonished when they be hold the aggregation. Not a Cosfideoce Man. The Masonic Standard, of New York, in its number of November 4th, says: "A good story is told of 'Colonel' Noble F. Martin, who is at present di recting arrangements for a Masonic Fair at Wilmington, N. C. He had just arrived and bad left the train and was quietly wending his way, grip in hand, to bis hotel, when he was ac coated by a gentleman, who grasped him by the hand -in a familiar man ner said. 'Hello, . Noble, how are you?' 'Colonel' Martin looked into the face of the stranger, while visions of bunco steerers, green goods men and such friendly per sonages passed through his mind, and replied: 'Really, my friend, you have the advantage of me. I never saw you before.' 'No,' replied the stranger, 'you never did.' 'How in the world, then,' queried 'Colonel' Martin, 'did you get my name?' Why, sir,' responded the stranger, pointing at the Shrine emblem which Noble Martin wore, 'any man who wears that is a Noble, and is sure to have lots of friends.' It is needless to say the 'differences' between the two Governors of North and South Carolina were at once adjusted." The Popular Coarse Friday Evening. An unusual treat is in store for Wilmington in the visit here of the Louise Brehany Ballad and Opera Concert, a company of metropolitan artists, headed by the favorite ballad singer of America. Louise Brehany has earned her- great reputation quickly, and no young singer has had a greater series of successes than she.

Stroud, of Al bertson Township, for the murder of one Phillips, on last Sunday night. He killed him with an axe. It is said to have occurred about a sister of Lee.

Guaranteed High Clsss Entertainment for Monday Night Manager Schloss, of the Opera House, desires to call attention of the amusement going people of this city to the forthcoming engagement next Monday night of the Herbert Kelsey Effie Shannon Company in the pre sentation of their famous play "The Moth and the Flame," and personally guarantees the event to be one of the most notable high class dramatic per formances he has ever had the honor to present. 'The Moth and the Flame" ranks among the most notably successful American, plays of the present day, and its success last season equaled that of "The Christian" and "The Little Minister." It is seldom that Wilmington amusement patrons have the opportunity of seeing a produc tion of this class given by the orig inal company intact, but in this in stance it is guaranteed and should ap peal to all who delight in high class amusements. The guaranteed regular every day circulation of The Morning Stab is much larger than that of any other daily newspaper published in Wil mington. This claim has never been challenged by any competing news paper.- .. : ; bud. JAHI9 On the morning of November lath, 1899, JOSHUA TILUNOHAST JAMES, In the 61st year of his age.
