V Washington, December 3L The sil ver senators have " decided . to oppose' . the nominations to office made in place of silver men vrho were removed be cause of their alleged participation in .the recent campaign. Senator Jones, of Arkansas, chairman -of the democratic national committee, says that while ordinarily he has no disposition to in terfer with the presidential ' pretoga-5 tives, he thinks that in cases where ; there have been removals, justice to all persons. Interested calls for an inves tigation of the charges upon which the displacements were made. It; now looks as if . the question which these removals will raise will be the first since the election to cause an alignment of parties on financial ques tions in the senate. The indicaUons are that the silver republicans wh bolted the j St. Louis convention and Ifhe- pop ulists will stand with the silver dem ocrats in opposing confirmation, "while it is probable the republicans ad gold democrats will support the presidential appointees in most cases. Some of the republicans are not very zealous, how ever, in their support, for the reason that they realize that failure to con firm! democratic nominees will throw the nominations to their party after March 4th, ( and thus increase the republican patronage. ; ,i senator jones says ne aoes not want ,the nominations pigeon-holed or con firmations defeated in any indirect way. but that he wants them voted upon in the senate and directly confirmed or re jected. He thinks the senate should ,pass upon the question involved in the nominations. Mostly All Hall... (Washington Times.) .

We Once before had occasion to men tion the interesting fact that the maxi mum number" of eclipses that can take place within the period of a year is seven, and of these five are solar and two are lunar, and the minimum num ber of eclipses is -two, which must both be solar. The year 1897, the second of the last semi-decade of the nineteenth century, Will present this minimum number of ecljpses, which, of necessity,, must be solar and central, -and will be annular. The first, takes place on Feb ruary 1st' and the second on July 29th. Both will be. visible to some extent in this country. On the first of the month the sun will be nearly 22 degrees, 57 minutes south of the equator, and run during the month through an arc of 2 degrees 15 minutes in decimation, a rate of motion that will considerably increase during the months of Febru- aij aim luaiuu. t V Trained Nurses for the Insurgents.

May Possibly Be Sent to the Florida Coast to Join the Patrol Fleet. . : ' Baltimore Sun.) '.' -; . . "Washington, December 31. The hur ry orders - to . prepare the dynamite cruiser Vesuvius for sea by January 12th are believed now to have In view her possible use as a member of the filibustering patrol fleet. The "officials will not state why .there should be such haste in getting the ship ready. It is surmised that she is intended for work off the Florida coast. Her great speed turning abilities and light draft render her especially well adapted .' fer the work, and besides it is understood the naval authorities have become con vinced that large vessels of the Raleigh and Newark class, are unsuited to the work 'and smaller and fleeter ships are demanded. . The earliest possible time at which the Vesuvius can be ready is about January 15th, and until then it is not believed the Officials will make known their purpose in again placing her in commission. There is much mystery now surrounding the movements of all ships on the Florida coast, and the im pression prevails that the naval ships might as well, be withdrawn and leave the . whole patrol work Ito revenue cut ters and 'small ships. With two or three fleet shins like the Vesuvius, it is believed a wide area of water could be patrolled and any ship suspected of en saeiner in . filibustering: expeditions promptly brouerht to when once sierhted. The three dynamite guns with which the Vesuvius was originaly armed have been removed. Her armament now consists of three 3-Pounder rapid fire guns, and she has been supplied with LQ00 rounds' of ammunition for these guns. Her dynamite guns and fifty dynamite shells are stored, at the Lea gue Island navy yard. It. 'is doubtful, hbwever, whether thev will ever again be used on board this vessel, as the ppvpral bureaus of the department are opposed to them. Captain Simpson otrone-ly. advocated that the vessel be tilled into v a torpedo-boat destroyer, prid. in accordance with his recommeiv riatios, her dynamite guns were re moved. "" Jettr Time in, 1897. . (Baltimore Herald.) j The keynote of the addresses deliv ered ati the merchants and manufac- turers' banquet on Wednesday night was that better times are coming ? There was no uncertainty about, the declaration. - One speaker after an other not only stated his belief that such would be the history of the com ing year, but they gave' substantial reasons for the views expressed. Men of high standing in the business world were there; bankers, manufac turers, merchants, railroad men and politicians listened to the jSentjments expressed-and applauded, and the cen tral idea -about which all. others grouped themselves was that the Ru bicon of hard times Is passed, and that the industrial armies are already preparing for descent upon the rich and prosperous plains of the Roman republic, so to speak. The views thus voiced by this emi nent trade organization and its guests finds incidental encouragement else where. Several trade papers and class publications have taken pains to se cure! expressions on the -subject from a great variety of sources, and the gen eral 'impression Is that the year 1897 will show considerable progress in bus iness. No' doubt advancement will be slow, but it will be all the more health ftfl, and whatever is gained will natur ally, be permanent- V It would take a large space ? to enumerate the reasons given for the promising outlook, a But 'chief among them are better conditions in the mon ey market; increased earnings ' by trahsportatipn companies; a consid erable revival of industry; a larger volume of transactions, and marked increase in exports to foreign coun tries. A" long with these is the expres sion, of confidence itself, by no means the least significant proof that busi ness men are directing their energies to progress and ; not retrogression. What the chief observers of the situ ation expect may be stated somewhat like this: The early months of the new year will be consumed in starting fac tories, in bringing forward materials for manufacture, -'and 1n laying a solid foundation for- prosperity. . About the end of the first quarter of the year business may be expected to take on increased activity, which is tq continue with accelerated momentum through the year. Men are not agreed as to the rate of progress, but there is hardly an expression to be found that is not essentially cheering. A few com plain that the wheels of trade move provokingly slow, but even these are driven to confess that they do 'more. i It may be safely said then that the new year dawns -with good prospects. Months, of course, must run by be fore all anticipations are realized, but the f act appears to be established that industrial and commercial affairs are once more on the up grade. , Wilson Notes (Correspondent of The Messenger.) Wilson, N. C, January 1. Another alarm of fire, the third one this week, was sounded this morning about 3 o'clock. It was soon discovered that the store belonging . to Mr. Joe Jordan, on South Nash street was on. fire. The fire had gotten a good start and, despite the heroic efforts of the fire department, almost the whole building with contents was destroyed. The walls and ' a portion of the floor were left, besides, a few articles of merchandise that were taken from the burning building. The loss is estimated at $1,500, partly covered by insurance. The origin of the fire is unknown. Last evening President John C Kilso. of Trinity college, delivered an address before - the Trinity " College Alumni Association of Wilson county. He spoke on the subject of "Christian Education," and made, a plea ror ae nominational colleges without attack ing any institution of learning. Many people here think Dr. Kilgo the most powerful exponent of' denominational schools in the state. Durine the year just closed Wilson's progress has not been rapid, but it has been steady and permanent, u ne vol ume of business has been greater than in any year in the history. Sixteen thousand bales Of cotton have been marketed here since January 1, 1896. Ten million pounds of tobacco have been .sold by our warehousemen for the same time. Two million dollars have been. paid out for farm products in twelve months.' One hundred thousand dollars have been expended in putting up- new houses and repairing old ones. The municipal government spent $17, 000 in putting in. a sewerage system. These ar$ only some of the larger items which shjjws something of the volume of business in Wilson for the last twelve months. The population s now estimated at 5,000. V Yesterf.ay Mr. Geo. W.

Her majesty is gjiSd, andj has forgiven he sins of that commonwealth against her grandfather, but only! on account of the excellence of,. these pippins. We oheer jfully off sr. this bit jaf information, jin the interest of ' 7irginia, without charge; although, its promulgation is likely to cause a rusi of anglomaniacs from New York, eager to purchase the same description f apple lnd and to furnish the prince djf Wales ' and the duke of York with,' jtheir regular ra tions of table fruit.' Perhaps the former might prefer his in the higher form of apple jack, hut the principle is the same. . ' ! - i- Qneenly teeth are inot the only ones that delight In crunching 4he southetn apples. Within a fewlyears a consider able interest has grown up in the pied mont and mountain j sections of "Vir ginia and North Cjarolina, and the Cumberland plateurj jcountry of Ken tucky and Tennessee: !A recognized and leading ; variety of ! southern apples, the Albemarle pippiji, already com mands a large market abroad: Assist ant Secretary Dabniay of the depart ment of agriculture fpstated in an ad dress last summer thit he knew a sin gle owner who had 401) acres planted jto this fruit, and the coiiparatively small number of trees already in bearing net fed him $6,000 per arium. .. i Peach culture in the- south has had, a remarkable evolution within a short timei and this Is eispecially true M southern Georgia. On man in that re gion jis stated to.hav bought 400 acrjes of land for$5jer acre about twelve years ago. Last yea ho sold from it r peaches to the amodnt of $40,000. Dr. Dabney says: "The' Industry has as sumed suct proportiipns in. this brief space or wme tnat peacn growers are forming associations! for their mutual Information and projection, and hold ing fairs devoted exclusively to their products of the orchard." .Reports of the peach carnival at Macon and the midsummer fruit fail- at Tifton, Ga. last year speak of ."peaches twelve to fifteen inches in circumference, bril llant with their red ajid goldV tempting fthe eye and palate.'?! Straws, of inf or mation like the foregoing show how the south is workingfout its salvation and struggling toward condition's of prosperity in spite of fthe depression of the day. The people of that section are entitled to credit foriall they have axk compliehed in that way up to the pres ent time. Henceforth anything they may achieve will be entirely due to Me Kinley, sound money land a protective tariff. ;t . Wilmington! Markets.
