B:n Wter WMmlngton The great watchmaking town in Switzerland ia Chanx-de-Fonda, waich tnrna out 300,000 watches a French boot and shoe makers bare raised their prices, on account tney say, of American competition. Mjybe that iB the French way. In u,i country they Jo precisely the reverse. In Utah the drug stores are not allowed to sell more than five gal lons of liquor at a time. If that is not enough for a fellow to fill up on all he has to do is go outside, shake up and come again. A Denver, Col., dispatch informs us that 9,000 Boers are preparing to trek to America and will settle in Colorado, New Mexico and Texas. It looks as if the Boers are destined to become another "scattered na tion." Mrs. Mary Nixon, of Bryn Mawr, Pa., had her 102d birthday party on Christmas. A lot of her children, grand children and sixteen great grand-nieces helped her celebrate and wished her many happy returns. Col. Jack Chin has started a new industry in Kentucky. Hehasestab lished a fox incubating and hound incubating farm. On one side of the he raises foxes and on the other side hounds, with nothing but a wire fence between. The FrickCoke Company of Penn sylvania has made a Voluntary in crease of eight per cent, in the wages of its 20,000 employes, which amounts in the aggregate to $1,600, 000 in the year. That's better than waiting for and wrestling with strikes. T. T. Fortune, a New York negro, sent on an investigating expedition to Hawaii and the Philippines, is quoted as saying that the "importa tion of the true negro will be the solution of the labor problem. " Wonder if Fortune's "Afro-American" and his "true negro" is one and the same solver? The inventive genius in which the American leads all other people still holds its own. The present year has been a record breaker, the number of patents granted exceed ing that of any previous year. Of the patents issued 999 were to resi dents of England and 343 to resi dents of Germany. The Augusta Ga., Chronicle sees no good reason wny so mucn muuej should be spent in elections for Mayor of that city. Perhaps not, bnt then an election without the stimulus of more ' or r less cash wouldn't be nearly so. exhilarating. That's about all some people ever get out of them. CHRISTMAS TREES GALORE. Dates of Nearly All the Sasdsy Scooo Festivals This Week Three for Tuesday NIf ht. A stone cannot now be thrown with out hitting a Sunday school Christmas tree and this makes the little folks happy. Four of these trees have already oeen neld by the Sunday school, or uu Faurs Lutheran, St. James Epis copal, Bladen street Methodiat and Immanuel Presbyterian churches but this week will bring forth (the great remainder. To-morrow night the Sunday school of BL Matthew's English Lutheran church will hold their Xmas festival and tree.Instead of Tuesday evening at previously appointed.

E Church,- St. Andrew's Presbyterian church and Brooklyn Baptist church will celebrate with a tree. Grace church will hare its tree in the upstairs of the City Hall. The First Baptist church Bundsy school will have its tree Wednesday night, and as this will be New Tear's ere a fine opportunity will be afforded to aee the death of the old and the birth of the new year. The school of Fifth street Methodist church will very likely have its tree the same night. The date for the tree of Market street Methodist church's Bunder school haa not been decided upon. LOCAL DOTS. A supply of the new issue of the 13-cent stamps has been received at the postoffice. The annual brilliant dance of the Assembly will take place Thurs day night, January 23 J. For a Christmas gift the fire boys presented popular Chief Schnib ben with a very handsome couch. The tug Alexander Jones left Southport yesterday with the schooner Douglass in tow, bound for New York. A boy who is experience in feeding job presses may secure em ployment by immediate application at the Star office. The County Commissioners will meet some day during the early part of the week to pass on applica tions to sell liquor. "Turn Over a New Leaf and Write the Record of An Unspotted Life" will be Dr. Blackwell's theme at the First Baptist Church to-night. A competent and experienced feeder for Job Presses can secure em ployment by immediate application at the Star office. Liberal wages paid. A press dispatch to the Stab last night sajs the steamer City of FayetteviUe, in tow of the tug H. M. C. Smith, arrived at Beaufort, 8. C, yesterday. The little girl who came to the city from Delgado Friday afternoon to attend the Elks' Chriatmas tree and became lost, was found late in the night and returned safely home. Bev. Chas. M. Bishop, D. D., of Sr. Joseph, Mo., will preach at Grace Methodist Church this morn ing at 11 o'clock. His reputation is a guarantee that his sermon will be a good one. In the police court yesterday Westley Watson, colored, was bound over to the higher tribunal for steal- ng an overcoat from an Assyrian. A white man was sent to the roads for an assault. ' The 5 o'clock meeting for men at the Y. M. C. A. this afternoon will be addressed by Bev. A. D. McClure. His subject will be "Luxurious Liv ing." All men are cordially invited to be present. "PECK'S BAD BOY." Old asd Yoosx's Delight st the Academy of Magic Music Next Saturday. Next Saturday for two performances, matinee and night, the Academy will offer a big revival of the evergreen "Peck's Bad Boy." The company pre senting this popular play is a strong one end consequently good peform- ances may be expected. Regardless of the fact that the organization is a good one and a "one nighter," the prices will be greatly reduced. The matinee will, no doubt, attract the children by the hundreds. This performance will be given with as much pains as the night's, with the orchestra, etc Most people know that "Peck's Bad Boy" is a potpourri of funny inci dent, brilliant repartee apd ludicrous situations. Some more definite in formation, however, might be inter esting. The production is the apothe osis of modern comedy. It is cleverly arranged, and is as devoid of a plot as a church stew is of oysters, and the in cidents recur with such startling ra pidity as to cause continuous laughter. NEW ADVKBTIHKMKNT3. N. F.

IN THE CHRISTMAS NUMBER FortyOdd Other Mayors Tell of the Sosth's Proiperity The Record Calls Attention to Work of Oar Chamber ef Commerce. The business men of Wilmington will find the Christmas issue of the Manufacturers' Record of spseia! in tereat, as it contains much about the progress and prosperity of the South. Letters from almost fifty mayors are published, each aetting forth the ad vantages of his respective city. Mayor Waddell has a very interesting letter, as follows: "It is a fact which cannot be denied. and which every business man in this city will testify to, that the general businees and industrial progress and outlook here Is better in every way than ever before. The Manufacturers' Reeord publishes every new enter prise ia the South, and has given those recently established In and around Wilmington, but, or course, the mere mention of these cau convey nojast idea of the real advance industrially acd commercially, or of the quickened spirit that prevails in business of every kind. I have been told by returning persons who lived or visited here prior to November. 10. 1898 (from which we date our new era), that they hardly tecognized the place aa the same, so great has been the improvement In development andlin the spirit of the peop.e. "The bans: deposits are growing rap id!?, labor ia fully employed, the volume of business steadily increase, acd buildinesare multiplying: rail road facilities and steamboat traffic are larger, and foreign shipments are greater. There is not and never has been any "boom." but there is a steady growth and a healthy one. The most recent enterprise in which our "live" Chamber of Commerce is interesting itself is a large tobacco warehouse, and a crusade amour the farmers of ad joining counties In behalf of tobacco planting, which will be something new, except in a small way, in this re gion. The recent removal of the of fices of the Plant system to headquart ers here of the Atlantic Coast Line haa added to the social and business life also. But I feel I am exceeding my allotted space." The Record says that the financial. industrial and commercial health of its cities is one of the surest indica tions of the prosperity of the South during the past year and that Wil mington, N. C, where, under tne auspices of a live ohamoer of corn- mere, ia being made a crusade among the farmers for the eneoursgement of tobacco culture is among the cities whose merchants are feeling the ef fects of agricultural prosperity. BIO SUCCESS FINANCIALLY. This Christmas Was a Record Smasher for All Baslsesses. That Christmas, 1902, was a big ar tistic success in Wilmington every one knows well, so it only remains to add that it was a great success finan cially. Everybody seemed to have a sufficiency of the blessings of this world and records show that money was spent quite lavishly. All the merchants report big busi ness and some say their sales were away ahead of many a previous year. The trade, too, was neither spasmodic nor troublesome to hsndle, but on the contrary was steady and in most casss rapid, although money was spent judiciously. The business done by the Ssuthern Express Compsny was enormous and far ia excess of lsst year. The re ceipts were about $300 more. The number of outside vehicles employed to deliver packages, aside from the regular wagons, was about double. The mail was exceedingly heavy, though in actual weight it was about the ssme as laat year. All this goes to show that Wilming ton is prosperous and advancing year by year. TWO FIRES YESTERDAY. They Occurred In the Afternoon the Same Half Hoar. There were two fires yesterday after noon and although 'they were of little consequence they were quite sufficient to keep the fire laddies busy, as both happened within the same half hour and were located at opposite ends of the city. Fire No. 1 was caused by a spark from a blazing chimney falling on the roof of a one-story frame dwelling owned and occupied by Ben Barge, colored, 112 South Twelfth street. The damage was nominal. The alarm waa sounded at precisely 2:33 o'clock from box 54, Twelfth and Market atreets. Toe other fire occurred at 3 o'clock. an alarm being "turned In" from box 17, Fifth and Nixon streets, and was at the house of a colored woman named Boyd, No. 510 Nixon street A defective flue waa the cause. About f25 damage was done, covered by in surance with Col. Walker Taylor and Messrs. J. E. Boatwright & Son. To Attend the Fa serai. Live Oak Camp of Woodmen of the World and Orion Lodge of the Inde pendent Order of Odd Fellows will go down to Southport this morning to attend the funeral of their late brother, Engineer J. M. O. Fisher. Many other friends of the deceased will also go down. The steamer Wilmington will leave the city at 10 o'clock this morn- ng. I will' make sittings until Saturday, January 3rd. Will be open New Year's day. Paul M. Taylor. t DANCE AT POINT CASWELL. iVany Wilniloctoa People Attended the Elegant Affslr Friday Night and Were Royally Eotertaioed.
