In their General Assembly at Colum bus. O.. the past week, the Northern Prsbytexians alluded to such mar riages as that of Ellis Corey and Belle Gilman as 'sinful mariages." When public sentiment begins to so regard them, that brand of matrimonial en tanglements will be less popular. In speaking of the shots he has been taking at former Senator Marion But ler. Republican State Chairman Ad ams said: "I have pierced his Judas Iscariot bide." He also wants to read Butler out of the party.

Popular Dry Goods Firm Introduces an Innovation in Wilmington. Looking-backward but a few years. when both members of the firm could appreciate what it meant to have a brief respite from their daily toil be hind the counter during the heated period. Messrs. Piatt & Haar, proprie tors of The Little (?) Store, announce that, beginning the first of June, and continuing through July and August, they will close their place of business at 1 o'clock Friday afternoons. This consideration on the part of the em ployers will be greatly appreciated by the employes, who will be better fit ted during the remainder orlhe week to serve the patrons of their popular establishment. Ip previous years ef forts have been made to get all the dry goods stores in the city to adopt some such method during the Sum mer, but Messrs. Piatt & Haar have decided to get at the head of the pro cession at the outset and make the announcement as above. In the ad vertisement published elsewhere in today's Star the word "Friday" is left out in speaking of half holidays This is not meant that the store will be closed each day in the week for half holiday.. ,It is only on Friday, and while the 'firm realizes that It will miss some sales by this step, they are of the opinion that the public' will ap preciate what they are "doing for their employes, -and will makei their pur chases on Friday -.mornings: or defer them' until Saturday ::v .'.- Lanoiypo -operator waniea t ax . oncw.; Must be fast," accuratev and ,'sober.'

WAS -PROBABLY CARRIED Proposition to Subscribe $80,000 to Capital Stock of Enterprise' Hav ing For Its Object Building of Two Lines from Wilmington. Elections were held in the various wards and precincts in Brunswick county yesterday on the question of issuing bonds to subscribe to $80,000 cf the capital stock of the Wilmington, Brunswick and Southport Railway of which Mr. Z. W. Whitehead, of this city, is president, and in which a mmm ber of prominent men of this section of the State are interested.- While only a few of the precincts and town ships could be heard from last night, the promoters 0 the road feel confi dent that the proposition was carried and that the bonds for the railroad will he issued. Smithville township in which South port is located was probably the ban ner township In the county for the bonds. Only one vote was cast against the measure out of the 201 votes poll ed. However, a majority of hte regis tered vote was required and voters who did not exercise their franchise were counted against the bonds. Even with these, though, the majority in Smithville township was 196 for the bond issue. A very aggressive cam paign for the railroad has been waged by the Southport Herald and this was largely responsible for the big vote there. There was general rejoicing in Southport at the result according to a long distance telephone message from there last night. At Town Creek the vote was against the bonds. Of the votes cast 65 were for the railroad and 104 against. There were 263 voters registered, therefore, the majority against the bonds will almost offset the triumph of the cause at Southport. Northwest township, situated in the upper end of the county, also went against the bonds, not a single vote having been cast tot 4he railroad ac cording to a telephone message from Phoenix last night. There were 135 registered therefore that ie the ma Jority against the issnie of bonds. The lower townships will roll up a big majority for the bonds, It is ex pected, though these could not he heard from last night. The advocates of the railroad in Brunswick are counting heavily on these townships and from, the indications before the election, it is said that they will not he disappointed. The returns are ex pected at Southport today and to morrow. The proposed railroad will extend from Navassa to Town Creek, then branching both to, Southport and to Little River, S. C. The bond issue is so arranged that the money will not be subscribed to theieapital stock of the road only as the line progresses. In this way the interest will be saved to the county and the transaction is guaranteed a bona fide one. The prin cipal opposition to the road, it was claimed before th,e election by the railroad promoters, was engendered by the Waccamaw Land and Lumber Company, which has large timber holdings 'in the upper end of the coun ty. However, there were charges and counter-charges all during the cam paign and a number of speakers went from place to place setting forth the advantages or disadvantages of the proposition. Mr. Whitehead, presi dent of the railroad, said last night that he was confident that the election would be carried and that the road would be built with an outlet at Wil mington. Few Excursions Tftis Year. MaJ. C. H. Gattis, traveling passen ger agent of the Seaboard, wasin the cityyesterday. He says that owing to the fact that all the surplus rolling stock of the railroad companies is being used this year In handling the Jamestown Exposition travel, there will be very few excursions to Wrightsville Beach this Summer, in fact, only one has been booked thus ar. This is the Pritchard Memorial Baptist Sunday School party from Charlotte on June 26th. Maj. Gattis said, however, that the roads would give particular attention to the week end excursions to the beach, and that all told there was no reason why. the present should not be as successful "a season as was ever enjoyed by the popular resort. Funeral of Mr. J. A. Morris. The funeral of the late John A. Morris, whose death cast such a gloom over the city Friday, will-be conduct ed this afternoon at 4: 30 o'clock from the residence of Jiis parents; Mr. and Mrs. W- J.

Last boat leaves !OTY'S new fiscal year Begins Next Friday Conference of Two Boards on Tuesday Night.. 7 Continued Hearing of Harper Case Before Committee. The new fiscal year of the city will 1 begin next Friday and this will he a busy weeds im municipal circles; The regular monthly meeting of the Board of Aldermen will not he held until Monday night week, hut there will be various committee meetings and con ferences so that the newly elected city fathers will have lots to do. The most important meeting will he a conference of the Board of Aldermen and the Board of Audit and Finance on Tuesday evening of this week to arrange the tax ordinance and to agree tentatively on budget for the new fiscal year, both of which have to be passed upon hy both bodies. At one time it was the custom for the Aldermen to meet and pass the or dinances as to taxes and arrange the budget, referring them to the Board of Audit and Finance, which would con cur in some, make suggestions as; to other items and disapprove cf still others. In this way the budget and tax ordinance was ikept going back ward and forward across the hall for weeks at a time. In recent years, however, 'the two boards have adopt ed the sensible plan of coming to gether in conference and threshing the matters out once for all. Then the two papers are carried before the Board of Aldermen at their regular meeting, formally adopted and return ed to the Board of Audit and Finance for final action. In this way the ma chinery of the city government as to finances is put into immediate work ing order and there is nothing lost. The meeting will be officially announc ed for Tuesday night tomorrow. Tomorrow night the Sanitary Com mittee of the Board of Aldermen will meet to hear argument of attorneys in the investigation of the case of Cap tain L. F. Harper, in command of the city trash carts. It is expected at this time that the decision will be made and Mr. Harper will know defi nitely what toj expect. THE BEACH TODAY..
