EXERCISES BY JUNIOR CLASS. Tileston Students Did Themselves Great Credit in Presentation of Pretty Christmas Plsy "The Revolt of Santa Clans," the Piece. The city public schools closed yes terday for the holidays and teachers and pupils alike will now have vaca tion until January 2nd, 1902. Many of the teachers and a number of the pupils, residing outside the city, left on the several trains ve.terdav for their homes and all of them have the best wishes of their associates for a 'merry Christmas and a happy Now Year." Mr. John Jav Blair, the nonu ar superintendent of the schools, left ast night to spend the holidays at his old home at High Point. He went via Raleigh, where he will spend a 6hort time with friends in that city. The most notable event of the dot ing of the several institutions, with the possible exception of the elegant banquet of the Senior class of the Tiles- ton High School last Friday night was an especially pleasing entertainment at 11 A. M. yesterday by the Junior class of the same institution. The entertainment was given in the assem bly room on the second floor of the building which was, tastefully decor ated for the occasion. Superintendent Blair, members of the faculty, com mitteemen, the student body of Tiles ton, members of the advanced classes of Union and Hemenway schools and a number of friends, composed the audience, and the programme was an exceedingly entertaining one. The exercises consisted of an alto gether creditable presentation of a well arranged one act Xmas farce, en titled, "The Revolt of Santa Claus." t was under the capable direction of Mrs. Stephen H. Chadbourn and un der the auspices of the "QaisetCur" society of the class. The scene is laid in the interior of the home of Santa Claus, located at the North Pole. Santa Claus gets the idea that the children have ceased to bestow their affection upon him any more, and n his indignation decides that this year he will eliminate his annual visit to the thousands of firesdes in the country. Brownie attendants seek to dissuade him from his wicked purpose, but fails. Tney appeal to the Spirit of Childhood, resting in sleep in Santa's home and she brings to the domicile of old Kris, children from all parts of the country, who assure him of their continued love and esteem. The chil dren again win the heart of their last ing benefactor and soon he is packed up ready to resume his work, immor talized in fable and . song. Father Time, with his sand dial, then appears on the scene, turns the hour to twelve and the children are soon lost in dreamland. The cast of characters was as fol ows: "Santa Claus, Harry Grant; Two Brownies, Tom Kerr and Geo. Woodward; Frisco Cowboy, Charles Loughlin; Priscilla, Annie McKay; Picaninnies, Robert Payne and Jea nett Franks; John Bull, Haugbton James; Rob Roy, Aaron Sailings; Kathleen, Rena Miils, French maid, Carrie Hard wick; Fritz. Willie Duls; Gretchen, Katie Gieschen ; Rus dan girl. Margaret Nash ; Italian girl, Margaret Ashe; Hawaiian girl, Julia Post; Japanese girl, Viola Bear; Ah Fun, Edwin Toomer; Spirit of Childhood, Jessie Lathrop." After the play the class gathered on the stage and the class President, in a few appropriate remarks presented' Mrs. Chadbourn with a handsome brooch as a Xmas present from the Junior Society. The class officers are Mr. C C. Loughlin, president; Miss Rena Mills, vice-president, Mr. Louis Cole, secre tary, and Miss Annie McKay.treasuer. Tbe Weather. Sundav morning proved itself the record breaker for cold for the year by one degree. After playing hide and seek with the 20 degree mark for the whole week, the mercury in the ther mometer took a tumble Sunday morn ing about 7 o'clock to 16. During the div. however, the weather moderated considerably and compared with the nreeedinsr davs. Sunday was an alto gether, lovely one. Yesterday there were a trifle too many gusts or wina for one's comfort but the temperature was quite agreeable and overcoats and urrans were disoensed with for much of the time. Nightfall brought along a nrettv heavy rainfall and a gale that had the appearance of being danger- : i a. ous, but it soon subsided ana mean"'- was for the most part very clear.

I them.y Morn WILMINGTON, N. C, TUESDAY, DECEMBER 24, MANY CHRISTMAS SHOPPERS. Streets Were Lined Yesterday With Hun dreds of Anxious Inhabitants in An tlcipation of the Holiday. The moderation in. temnerature ves- terday brought hundreds of Christmas shoppers upon the streets and the down town sections, prior to the gale which came on in the early evening, present ed a busy and altogether inspiring scene for the Christmas enthusiast. The cold weather of the past week was detriment to the merchants so far as their Christmas wares were concerned, for it was but natural that neoole should prefer an indoor life at that particular time to aSaunt about the streets and an attack at every corner by such icy blasts as the city has been experiencing. The ladies represent the great shop ping strength or the city and the weather was entirely too rigorous for their comfort upon the streets and in crowded stores; so the shopping was postponed until the days preceding Christmas this week, hence the rush. The out-of-town trade was also good yesterday, and the appearance of many strange faces on the streets was the subject of comment aThe Express office, Postoffice and very other office of transportation was crowded yesterday, and many was the number of packages handled. Some predict that to-day will be even more lively one for Christmas pur chasers than yesterday, and there are none who desire that condition more than the storekeepers themselves. They are worked very hard, 'tis true, but stocks are larger this year than usual and of course, when the holidays are gone, the Xmas goods ' must be relegated to the rear, many times at a loss and great inconvenience to the proprietor. COAL FAMINE WIDESPREAD. Railroads in North Carolina Are Said to be Peeling Its III Effects Tbe Sea board Air Line. The Raleigh News and Observer, of Sunday says : The Seaboard Air Line has been forced to convert coal engines to wood burners this week, because of the pre vailing coal famine. The effect of the coal famine has been felt in Raleigh this winter, and nothing like it has ver been known in the South before. Not only are the railroads Beriously affected, but business interests and private citizens as well. A crisis came with the Seaboard Air Line during the past week and in or der to prevent the possibility of dis continuing trains it was decided to con vert the engines that ply between Hamlet and Wilmington into wood burners. If the situation does not im Drove engines running to Charlotte and other points will be changed from coal to wood burners. Superintendent Hutrer. of tbe Second Division of the 8eaboard, went to Hamlet Friday and superintended the change. The Southern is also handicapped for want of coal and in some places has been forced to abandon freight trains because of the prevailing famine. The Seaboard has practically taken charge of Cumnock coal mines, tak ing the entire output of seventy five tons per day. Tne company nas neen unable to get miners and the Seaboard has arranged to bring forty miners to the mines this week. Shanty cars will also be sent to Cumnock to give them accommodations. The capacity of the mines with present machinery is 300 tons per day and tbe Seaboard will do all it can to help the manage ment of the mines bring the yield up to that figure. Railroad people say tne present coai famine is the worst they have ever known. In fact they have never heard of anything that equalled it. It is attributed to a number of rea sons. There is a shortage of cars, there have been a great many strikes. and miners generally quit work prior to the holidays. The Seaboard expects a big cargo or coal from Baltimore at Wilmington. The Second division uses about 400 tons a day. POULTRY SHOW POSTPONED. Three Exhibitions in This Section in Janu ary Make Postponement Necessary. The Poultry and Pet Stock Show, which was to have been given at the Citv Hall the first four days in Janu- arv. under the auspices of the Wil mington Poultry and Live Stock Asso ciation, has been postponed to the four da s following February 5th. The decision to postpone the show was reached at a meeting of the Asso ciation last night Prominent members took the position that with poultry shows at Charlotte, High Point and Charleston the same month, it would be difficult to interest outside exhibi tors in the show here. All will now go to work earnestly to make the show in February a great success. Esteem For Their Principal. Cape Fear Academy closed for the nhfistm&a holidavs vesterday, but will resume the term January 2 ad. A very pleasing incident of the closing was the presentation by the students a t ha Ap.ftdemv's excellent principal, Prof. Washington Catlett, yesterday oftATmnnn of a handsome umbrella. The splendid token of esteem by the ..,4r. hnHv for its nrincinal was made through Mr. Junius Potts and Prof. Catlett acknowledged the nmniimnnt in words of grateful ap r,niotirTi. Prof. Catlett also received a number of individual gifts from his -indents, all of which, are nigniy valued. :- - Blank. Cartridges and. Pistols at Rehder's.

ITS PARENTS AT CHURCH, Third Casualty of Its Kind lo Wilmington Within n Week Coroner's Investlxa--tlon Pound Unnecessary and Remains Ordered Buried A two-year old child of Wm. Jor dan, a well known colored carpenter, was horribly burned to death Sunday night about 10:30 o'clock, while the parents were at church. J ordan lives at No. 120 South Twelfth street, and Sunday night he and hi? wife went away, leaving the young child and two others, aged ten and twelve years respectively, to keep the house. The older children were instructed to remain awake iin the two-year old, but they soon became tired and went to bed in another room of the house, hanging their clothes on chairs near the fire ulace. The younger child was left in his crib, also near the fire, and the natural pre sumption, from the arrangement of things after the blaze, is that the clothes on the chairs took fire and communicated it to the crib and then to the walls adjoining. The child was burned badly on the right side of the face and on the stom ach. Colored people living near dis covered the fire and attempted to en ter the house, but the smoke was too suffocating and an alarm was sent in to the department at 10:34 o'clock from box 53, Twelfth and Market streets. It is possible that the child may have been suffocated before it was so badly burned. The children sleeping in the adjoining room were unharmed. Dr. C. D. Bell, the coroner, was summoned to make an investigation into the circumstances of the death of the child, but an inquest was thought unnecessary and the remains were turned over to the parents for burial. It is a strange coincidence that within the past week three children have been burned to death, much under the same circumstances, and all of them about the same age. The house at which the fire occurred Sunday night was owned and occu pied by Jordan, and the property loss was about $35. It was fully covered by insurance, with Col. Walker Tay lor $250 on the building and $50 on furniture. ANOTHER SEABOARD RUMOR. Tboof nt to be Backing Mt. Rogers and Eastern Scheme In Virginia. Richmond Times, 22nd. The Seaboard Air Line Sail way is thooght by some to be backing tbe charter of tbe Mt Rogers and Eastern railroad. This company proposes constructing a road from some point in the moun tains of Virginia or West Virginia along and through the counties bor dering on North Carolina to the Sea board. It is thought the Seaboard Company may wish to compete with the Chesa peake and & Ohio and the Norfolk & western in tne naming or coal ror ex port. Some counties and cities have voted subscriptions to the capital stock of the company. Mr. A. A. Campbell, a prominent lawyer of Wytheville, bas been here looking after the various bills affecting the in terests of this company, but has gone home. It is generally thought by the legis lators that the Seaboard or persons who desire to sell their charter to this road are behind the scheme. ENTERTAINMENT AT ASHTON. Excellent Programme Observed by Pupils of Miss Williams' Excellent School. Special Star Correspondence. Btjrgaw, N. C, Dec. 23. At Ash ton, near this place, on Friday even ing a most en joyable entertainment was given at Maple Hill school, under the direction of Miss Bennie Williams, who has been the teacher of this school for several years. A splendid programme was carried out with great credit to both Miss Williams and the children. It opened with the singing of "Old North State;" followed by the recitation, "Little Dots," by Miss Rosa Hocutt; Hi'aloonna "A RirthdftT Partv:" 'Three Smart Girls;" "Coming to an Understanding," ana exercises by the little children. "Way Down Upon the Sewanee Bibber." Next came the dialogues, "Making -Jolly for the .Minister," i"Advertising For a flimnt " anil To tin ir thft CSAnSlia " "The Raven" was beautifully recited by Miss Annice Butts, and "When the Mists Have Rolled Away" was sung as a closing number. Each point was carried out with perfection, and all were greatly ap- nlaiidoil and rnimnliir.AntAd for their work, which showed they had been skillfully trained by tneir teacner. In Port for Coal. The American steamship Wacca- maw. 920 tons. Capt A. O. Fickett from Georgetown. S. 0.. to New York, arrived in nort Sunday for coal, which she 'received from the Atlantic Coast Line chute and proceeded yesterday afternoon. The Waccamaw's cargo consists of 1,200,000 feet of lumber, consigned by the Atlantic Coast Lum ber Company, of Georgetown. Mr. Adolph Nelson, a well known and nooular Wilmingtonian, but who. has been engaged in business in Newbern for nearly two years is here to snend the holidays and, possi bly, to remain among hit old friends permanently. - TAR 1901.
