In Norway before a woman can marry she must show a certificate that she can cook, darn,etc. The first thing a woman in that country does after Cupid makes a target of her is to go into the kitchen and darnery to qualify herself for matrimony. Some of- our ministers are of the opinion that if the $110,000 de manded be paid for the ransom of Miss Stone, the missionary, it will boost the missionary kidnapping business, so that no missionary will be safe among the heathen with out a body guard.

Merry music of hammer and saw resounded everywhere in the down town sections of Front street yester day and it was all in preparation for Wilmington's big Elks' Fair and Car nival next week. "Booth street," as Front may now be aptly described, is taking upon itself a carnival appearance which will be complete by the end of the week and on Monday when Bostock's great ag gregation of magnificent shows are spread out for the admiration of the natives it will be hard for the ordinary individual to satisfy himself that he is hot at the Pan-American. The merchants are building booths in in gratifyinly large numbers and those who have not yet begun making a displaywilldo so to-morrow and next day so that everything will be in read iness for the opening Monday night. The window displays, too, will be a feature and the dry goods men, the shoe men, the clothing dealers and all kindred trades are vieing with one another in the excellency of their carnival store dress. Aside from the building of booths by individuals, Contractor F. A. Ap plegate has a force of forty carpenters and workmen busily engaged in con structing the platforms and founda tions for the variou8 shows that the Bostock-Ferari Company will bring. Enough is seen to know that the at tractions will be diversified and all creditable. At Front and Grace streets there will be the "Trip to the Moon," the "Brother Act" and'the "Little Horse." At Front and Chesnut streets "Eleetra. the. Flvinsr Lady" will de light the populace and the "Dog, Monkey and Pony Circus" will amuse the little folks. On this cor ner there will be two free attractions, both morning and afternoon, of each day. "Grant, the King of the Hyrh Wire," will do a turn, and two bal loon ascensions will be made. Front and Market streets will be the scene of the "Chrystal Maze," ex tending' toward Second street, and the "Wild Animal Show" extending towards the river. Front and Dock streets will be an attractive place for those who desire to witness "Edison's Picture Machine," and the "Snake Show," in which "Osco" positively eats 'em alive with a preference for Cape Fear moccasins and Brunswick rattlers. A supply of suitable reptiles will shortly be adver tised for by Dr! Carroll, chairman of the advertising committee. At Front and Princess streets, ex tending toward the river, will be the "German Village," which is always a popular attraction. Extending to ward Second street will be the "Wild Girl," not from Borneo, but a suffi cient curiosity to amuse everybody. At Second and Princess streets a free trapeze performance will be given twice each day. On Second and Market will be the The excavations for the laying of sewer pipe on Princess street will likely begin to-day. - Mr. John Baker, formerly of Wilmington, and at one time a mem ber of Saint James' choir, died in Ashe ville last week.

Liebman, is not rented, but is now for rent either by the owner, Mr. George Honnett, or by Maj. D. O'Connor, the real estate man. Mr. W. M.

Therefore, realizing our loss, we tender these resolutions in expression of our grief, and extend to the wife and kindred our heartfelt sympathy, trustinsr that our Heavenly Father in his love- and kindness will give to them that consolation which will help them bear their burden of sorrow.
