It is well to note that this great difficulty in getting paper was entirely unknown before the , paper trust got the newspapers by the throat. The Coifed ertte Museum.

Editor Star Referring to the local in your columns this morning, the writer wishes to say for himself, and thinks he ean speak for quite a num ber of others, that if Tom sliller has a friend in Wilmington who wishes to serve him, he would do well to advise Miller, at once, that his presence here will be resented by those who banish ed him. He cannot with safety return to Wilmineton for any rmrpose. or for even the shortest time. His busi ness can be closed up by an attor ney. Miller, as well as all others who were banished with him. must con tinue to remain elsewhere. White Supremacy. SMALLPOX IN VIRilNIA. Many Cases in Norfolk and Portsmouth. Compulsory Vaccination. Special to Baltimore San. Newport News, Va., Dec. 13. The health authorities of Newport News have adopted a compulsory vaccination order, and the city has been districted in such a manner as to thoroughly cover the ground. It has been learned that there are in the neighborhood of 100 cases of small pox in Norfolk and Portsmouth, and this action has been taken in order to protect this city against an invasion of the disease. The slight epidemic of last year cost the city in the neighbor hood of $35,000, and the authorities be lieve that "an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure." Grace Methodist Church. Rev. A. P. Tyer, pastor of Grace M. E. Church, will preach a farewell sermon to his congregation Sunday morning and with his estimable family will probably leave- the city early next week for Durham, where as already stated, he has been assigned by the annual conference as pastor of Main Street church, one of the most influential in Central North Carolina.

Blackwell to go out next Sunday ai ter noon at 3 o'clock, and speak on "Mor monism the Romance of Supersti ton" at Greenville Baptist Church.
