Reading of Marconi's success re minds ua that we haven't heard any thing from Nikola Teal a for several weeks. The Populists of Florida talk about nominating a candidate for Governor just to find out if the party is aa dead as everybody thinks it is. German students have decided that the sword is a nobler weapon than the pistol. It is more reliable too, for their is no mistaking as to whether it is loaded or not. A German professor who happen ed to visit the bargain stores in Chi ctgo, about Christmas, concluded that insanity must be on the increase among women. Pshaw! That's just ooe of their pastimes. Hundreds of cattle froze to death during the past week in the Colora Vi6,bliz2rds.

When Mr. Frick was asked about the reported displacement of Mr. Schwab, President of the Steel Trust, he said he didn't know any thing about it, and when asked that in the event of Schwab's going out he would go in, he said he was too busy with matters of his own. He couldn't afford to waste his time on a little 1160,000 a year job. ; Great wealth is not all. John D. Rockefeller would give all his mil lions, perhaps, if he could eat and enjoy a square meal, and it is said that the late Herr Krupp, the rich est man in Germany, was half starved all the time because the doctors con fined him to a certain regimen, and he never knew what it was not to be hungry.

Looked at Oae Time as Thosf n a Hold- Up Would Occar Peadlor, as ls vestlgstloa as to the Proper Uqsors. For an hour last night the Board of Aldermen wrestled mainly with the liquor license question as to whether or not the applications already grant ed bad all been signed by freeholders and if so had any one person signed two or more applications, the first be ing necessary and the second unlaw ful. At one time it looked as though a "hold up" ef the sixty licenses already granted, in or der for an investigation to be made by the city attorney along the lines mentioned, but finally this was sue cessfully passed over, though Alder men Cooper and Murrell were in favor of the investigation. However, the board determined to scrutinize appli cations more closely in future and re quested City Attorney Bellamy to draft a resolution, for presentation at the monthly meeting next Monday, making it necessary for all applica tions to be examined by the city attor ney so as to determine their legal con struction. The meeting was primarily called to consider three belated liquor applica tions, but by unanimous consent several other matters were transacted. There were present at the meeting be sides Mayor Waddell, City Attorney Bellamy and Acting Clerk Wbite Aldermen Johnson, Hasbagen, Spen cer, Bailey, Tiencheo.YobGlahD, Mor- rell and Cooper. Toe three liquor applications were first taken up, and licences were grant ed EI j 4b. Walton, northeast corner E eventb and Market streetp, and J. B. J. Sandlin, No. 5 8outh 8econd street. Several of theAldermen raised the point that Mr. Walton had not advertised that he intended to make application the length of time (30 days) required by law, but City Attorney Bellamy soon dispelled this by stating that an adver tisement merely once in a newspsper of the county in which the applicant de aired to do business was all that was necessary, the prevailing opinion of 30 days to the contrary notwith standing. The third application was that of J. W. Smith, No. 130 North Water street, and it was "held up" on motion of Al derman Bailey and it occasioned all the investigation discussion. Alderman Bailey desired that it be ascertained whether or not all the signers of the application were free holders and made motion to that ef fect, which was seconded by Alder man VonGlahn. Herbert McClammy, Esq., was pres ent as counsel for Mr. Smith, and ad dressed the board. Alderman Cooper coincided with the stand taken by Alderman Bailey, but wanted to go a step farther. He desired that this investigation take in the applications already granted. which, he said, should have been done at first. He clearly stated his views and said he was not actuated by any motive whatever except his duty as an aldermen ; he did not, he said, want to impede the business of a saloon one minute, but did intend to live up. as an alderman, to the State law, which required freeholders to sign liquor ap plications and explicity stated that no one person snouia sign twice, tie amended Aldermen Bailey's motion by calling for an investigation of all applications. Alderman Murrell agreed with Al derman Cooper and seconded the amendment. Then a lengthy and at some times puzzling discuss'on Jollowed. The amendment was, of course, placed first before the board and was lost, Aldermen Cooper and Murrell beiag the only ones voting in the af firmative. . Alderman Bailey's motion, which left the eligibility of the signers to the investigation of City Attorney Bella my, was carried. Aldermen Johnson, Von Glahn, Bailey, Cooper, and Mur rell voting aye. Toe motion carried with it the right for the application to be granted if the signers were found to be freeholders. The Black Maria matter was next m Mm. A 9 A t very timely caneu attention to oj Alderman Von Glahn. He spoke about the great need of a patrol wagon and urgently advocated the purchase of one. It was an outrage on human ity, he said, to see and hear about the policemen1 naving to urxg women uu other drunken prisoners through the streets; and that the city really lost by not having such a wagon, as many times certain parts of' the city were left without police protection. He asked for an appropriation of $350 to nurchase a Blaek Maria, and made a motion to that effect. Alderman Tiencken seconded the motion, which was unanimously car ried. The Coal, Cement and Supply Com pany was granted permission to build a spur track near their plant Permission was granted B. F. Beaves to sell fresh meat at No. 88S South Front street. 8hortlypast9 o'clock the meeting adjourned. - I have sold mv studio, and will not make any sittings here after January 3rd.

The Stab Sunday mentioned that a shipment of the new thirteen cent postage stamp had been received at the Wilmington postoffice. Yesterday the stamps were placed on sale. The thirteen cent atamn is not only new in design but is also new as to de nomination. Heretoforejthe traditional unlucky thirteen bju been skipped by Uncle 8am, but now it it is deemed economical and convenient to have a biker's dcz?n. Foreign postage altfiost demanded it. In the past In order to secure a proper amount for foreign postage (5 cents) and registration (8 cents), it required more than olle stamp on an envelope or package. Two stamps, the five and the eight, or the three and the ten, were the least that could be used, but now only the new issue is all that is necessary. vy.e thirteen cent stamp is smaller than the two and Is of a brownish color. It bears the picture of the late ex-President Benjamin Harrison. STEAMER FAYEr.raLE DELAYED At Charleston by an Accident to the Tag Towing Her.

Mr. Pallip Heinsberger, Jr., has recovered the bicycle boldly stolen from his residence, on North Third street, about a fortnight ago, and yes terday a young negro man, Vance Moore, had a narrow escape from be ing convicted of the theft. Moore was also tried on two other serious charges, but ju&t as luckily "cleared his skirts." Saturday afternoon Moore carried the stolen wheel for repair to the bicy cle establishment of Messrs. Duffy and Phelps, on North Front street. The wheel was recognized and the ne gro arrested. When searched at the station house a pistol and a pair of iron knucks'were found on his per son; consequently three cases were docketed against him. When arraigned in the police court yesterday Moore proved conclusively that he knew nothing of the stolen bicycle; that the wheel and the pistol were given him by the proprietor ol a money loan office, on Campbell street, to get repaired. He also told an earn est story of finding the knucks. He had to be discharged on the first two charges and, as he proved a good character, was given the benefit of the doubt in the other case.

The house was oc cupied by Alex. Cowan, colored. The alarm was sounded from box 28. Fourth and Grace streets, at 7:42 A.M.
