WHott to Ad dr th rhmVerflther Mutters. A special meetlne of the Chamber of Commerci was held yesterday at 8:30 . m.. pursuant to the call of Mr. James tt. Charboum, Jr.. the president. Pres iden Chadbourn presided and Colonel Tohn L. Cantwell. the secretary, was at his post.' . President Chadbourn briefly stated that the meeting had been called, to nonsider the suggestion of Captain Tohn T. Patrick that stens be taken to ave Wilmington thoroughly represent d at the Nashville exposition. He said he thought it would be a good idea to 'ollow .out the lines of the suggestion 'nade by.Cantain Patrick. Captain Pat rick Is chief Industrial s.gent of the Seaboard Air Line, and is working up tn exhibit by the various cities and communities on the Seaboard Air Line Ho mndo In the main exoosttton, ii1iaing. Tt Is ntwoosed to have Wil mington thorone-My renresentM In this irhibit. The Seaboard Air Line also rromses to erect on the grounds a building representing a huge car with large reception room on the first tory and a number of private recep tion rooms above. The large' reception room on the first story Is to have oan npls .between the windows and these vinnels are to be devoted to advertls ne the IrtdnstrfpS; resources and at tractions of tb various cities alnne the oPaTv,nra r T.lne. Al that Is asVed of tbf. cities is that they contribute $100 ch towards the prectlon of th build-lie-. wblr-h will about pay half the cost of construction, j the other half to be bv thfl Peaboard Air Line. Tt was ornlalned also that Cantain Patrick oiie-e-PBted. v wav of advertising Its ovster and fish ! Industries, that Wil rnlneton rive a banouet. with an oyster roaft and fish menu, and Invite the newsnaper men to be its guests on the occasion. , Mr. W. E. Worth; one of the vice oresldents of the Chamber, very fully e-rnlained the object of .Cantaln Pat rick's visH here on P-aturdav and stated that the president, himself. Captain T. T). Meares and others of the chamber had a conference with him and heard his plans. He heartily endorsed Cap tain "Patrick's sutrtrestlons. and said he would himself contribute ten barrels of oysters and furnish all the ice neces sary to transnort any amount of oys ters and fish that may be sent to Nash ville for the banquet. He said that In doing this he had in mind that what helps to build up Wilmington helps to build him up. In detailing " Captain Patrick's proposition, Mr. Worth said Captain Patrick stated that the Sea board Air Line proposes to furnish free transportation to and from Nashville for ten citizens of Wilmington, to-be named by the Chamber, of Commerce, to look after the arrangements for the banquet. The Seaboard Air Line also proposes to give free transportation for the oysters and fish to be sent to Nash ville. ' Captain T. D. Meares, general agent of the Seaboard Air Line, also explain ed . and endorsed Captain Patrick's plans.. He said the New River Oyster Company would also contribute five or ten barrels of oysters for the ban quet. He stated that Captain Patrick was chief Industrial agent and had been instrumental In converting the town of Southern JPInes from - land worth 50 cents per acre to a thriving and prosperous community, and that Wilmington should avail herself of his suggestions as a means of attracting attention to our advantages and at tractions. Captain Meares laid upon 'the table a blue print cf the building which the Seaboard Air Line proposes to erect at the exposition. It is to be ninety feet long, twenty-four feet in width and twenty 'feet in height. The first story is to be a general hall .banquet hall or rendezvous. The proposition Is made to Wilmington to contribute $100 towards the erection of this building and secure a pannel for shelving to hold books and other printed iriatter for distribution, for. the purpose of ad vertising our industries, attractions and resources. He said the Seaboard Air Line not only proposes to furnish free transportation for ten citizens and the fish and oysters for the banquet, but will also oner a low rate for all oth ers who desire to visit the exposition. Mr. J. C. Stevenson heartily endors ed. Captain Patrick's plans.. He said Captain Patrick was a man of great resources and influence, and makes a success of all he unaertakes. He had wheels in hia head but they are prac tical wheels. He was responsible more than any other man for the develop ment of North Carolina. He practically established the agricultural bureau, and it was a revelation to see how he; has developed j the resources of the country along the Seaboard Air Line between Ramjet and Raleigh and be tween Hamlet, and Charlotte. Mr. Ste venson declared that it would be a wise thing to do to pay attention to anything- that Captain Patrick might sug gest. It is true that he Works for and draws his salary from the Seaboard Air Line, but he believed him to be patriotic and wholly disinterested In his effort to develop not oniy tne tern x 1 V. - 'Oy-r. Vnn AU T InO Kit' tory along the Seaboard Air Line, but the entire state, i-xe nas a wonqenm faculty of grasping the situation, and recognizes that. Wilmington's oyster, fish and trucking industries are almost without limit. Our resources In his re spect are hardly i known at Jfashville, and just the thing we need is some thing to let that part of the country know what our capabilities are. He said he was heartily in favor of ac cepting the proposition of the Seaboard Air Line, especially, as it was so liberal and the amount required was so small. He had no doubt it would inure to the good of Wilmington. He remarked that it would afford us a splendid" opportu-. nity to let the people who go to. Nash ville know that we are headquarter i for spirits turpentine, rosin, etc., and that it might build UP for us a dlreel trade for our: special products. It would let that section know what Wilmington has a cinch ?on. We ought to take up Mr. Patrick's; suggestions. He h&s been an active agency In building up the in dustries of our State, and he had no doubt his plans would do much for Wilmington, f ' - - President Chadbourn agreed with alj that had been said, and said as the Chamber of Commerce had some money in the treasury he would suggest that Mr. Patrick's proposition be accepted and the $100 be appropriated at once to carry out'the plans. On motion of .Mr. J. H. Boatwright $100 was appropriated, as advocated by the president. : ' Captain Meares moved that the pres ident appoint a1- committee of three with President Chadbourn himself as a member, to make the arrangements for carrying out the plans, and that -this committee report back to this cham ber the names of the ten delegates tc go to Nashville. The motion was adopted, and the president appointed as this committee Messrs. j. C. Stevenson,- W. E. Worth and E. S. Tennent. , On motion of, Mr. M. S. Willard, the secretary' was ordered to address a communication to Captain Patrick ex pressing the appreciation of this body of his suggestions and the liberal prop osltion of the Seaboard, Air Line. CAPE FEAR LIGHT HOUSE. , Mr. H. G. Smallbones, Of the special committee appointed to secure a light house on Bald Head, reported that con gress had appropriated $70,000 for the erection of ft light house on the pitch ' -. ' ' of Cape Fear. He said the Produce Ex change had first moved in this matter and it had been recommended by Colo nel Stanton and the light house board. He stated that the appropriation for the Hatteras light had failed. Mr. Smallbones stated that three meeting ago he called attention to the fact that the government almanac and coast report did not contain data about the tides at this port. He also stated (bat another marine almanac based on the government almanac published to the world that the water on our bar was only fourteen feet and that the channel to Wilmington was only sixteen feet. He said some steps ought to be taken to have a proper report of the tide data and to correct the false Impression about the depth of water on the bar and in the river, as the report was detriment to our commerce." On motion of Colonel Walker Taylor. Mr. Smallbones and Captain J. W. Craig were appointed a special com mlttee to take . the necessary steps in the matter. - ' Mrl M. S. Willard inquired what was meant by the pitch of Cape Fear. Captain Craig explained that it was the extreme point of Bald Head Island and that it is proposed to put the light house there as it was four miles nearer the Frying Pan lightship, and vessels coming in could see both lights at the same time. .... . ( SOUTHERN BAPTIST CONVENTION , President Chadbourn called atten tion to the fact that the Southern Bap tist Convention is to meet here in May, and said he noticed that the Rev. W. B. Oliver, pastor of the First Baptist church was present. He said, the cham ber would be glad' to hear from Mr. Oliver. i Mr. Oliver .said he and the other Bap tist ministers went to the Southern Baptist -Convention which met at Chat tanooga last May, and in behalf of the Baptists of Wilmington, the Chamber of Commerce and the Board of Alder men, had extended the convention an Invitation to: meet in , Wilmington on the 6th of May this year. He said that on this occasion the delegates to the convention are to be our guests and that it would, be necessary to com mence making arrangements for taklnj care of and entertaining them. He re called the fact that Messrs. Alexander Sprunt & Son had kindly tendered the use of the Champoln Compress for the meetings Of the convention, but said It had been decided to meet in the First Baptist church. e referred to. the importance of the convention in consideration of its social, moral and religious aspects, and said that It would also be of Importance to the trade in terests, as it would attract great crowds of people to our city from, all over thig and other states. Delegates, he stated, would be here from all the southern states as far north as Mary land, and from the west as ar as Ore gon. There will also be many visitors from the various states and also from the north. Provision has to be made to entertain the delegates, between 900 and 1.000 In number, but he said he thought the Baptist churches would be able to take care of that part of It. If not, he felt satisfied that with the ef forts of this chamber there would be no trouble in getting homes among our people for all the delegates that will be here. He stated that he had come to this meeting to talk of making other arrangements for the entertainment of the guests who had been invited here. It would be necessary to give them some Rock Spring water, take them on excursions down the river, take them to the sound and possibly to give them an oyster roast, etc. He had therefore come to request the chamber to appoint a committee to confer-with the com mittees from the three Baptist churches on the question of entertaining the del egates. He knew Wilmington hospitalii ty would be equal to the occasion, and there would be no trouble on that score. He said another question would be to consider the means of meeting the ex pense to be thus incurred, which would be several hundred dollars. He then went on to speak about the advantages the convention would be to the city and said it would attract here some 2,500 or 3,000 visitors. Colonel Taylor said , he was one of the committee appointed by this cham ber to extend the Invitation to the Southern Baptist Convention, and that this chamber would heartily joint the Baptists in the entertainment of the delegates. He moved that the president appoint a committee of five, the pres ident also to be a member, to confer with Mr. Oliver's committees on all matters necessary to be attended io. President Chadbourn approved 3f the motion and complimented the commit tees of the chamber, who, he said, al ways did their duty faithfully and well. Mr. J. C Stevenson said, the Baptists felt grateful for the interest manifest ed in bringing this great body of Chris tians to our city. They had been invited here as our guests, and the action of this chamber showed a broad and lib eral minded feeling, showing . that all are Christians If not having the same methods, yet have the same results In view. It makes us feel nearer to each other, he said, to witness this co operation. He then went on to hold up the example of Atlanta's citizens In co-operating for the good of their city, and mentioned tha unanimity with which they had sustained and helped to make the lamented Henry W. Grady. He urged the same co-operation on the part of '.ne people of Wilmington for the up-building of our city. In speak ing of the advantages of the conven tion, he said it is estimated that it will attract here from 3.000 to 5,000 visitors who would spend not less than $25 each while here. This would be business for the railroads, would make trade, would make business for" the hotels, etc. He said the First Baptist church, had al ready gone to work to do Its part to wards entertaining the convention and had raised $600. The three Baptist churches would do their full duty, and It was asked that this chamber co-operate with them In the manner asked by Mr. Oliver. The convention, he re marked, would bring to Wilmington the best people of the Baptist denomi nation In this country, and he was sat lesfied that It would benefit Wilming ton. in many ways. In addition to the appolntme; t of the co-operation com mittee, he suggested that a committee also be appointed to call on the rail roads to aid In the matter, as the con vention will directly benefit them. Captain T. D. Meares also spoke In support of the- motion of Colonel Tay lor and it was explained that the same committee could see the railroads, or meet with the committees of the Bap tist churches and appoint sub-committees. In his remarks Captain Meares spoke of the entertalnmen to be extended and said the visitors must be shown our summer resorts which are not excelled anywhere, and our beach which Vice President St. John, of the Seaboard Air Line, ad pronounced the finest beach on either side of the con tinent, i . 1 Colonel Taylor's motion was adopted, and the president appointed the fol lowing committee to co-operate with the committees of the Baptist churches. Colonel Walker Taylor, and Messrs. J. B. Mercer, J. H. Boatwright, M. S. Willard, W. E. Worth. The motion also made President Chadbourn a member of the committee. The committee was requested to meet the church "com mittees laet night at the lecture room of the First Baptist church. ADDRESS BY HON. WARREN G. .

Bat There Is No Ground for Alarm and It I About Over. It has gone out that there is small pox in Greensboro. The Record has no desire in the world to conceal any thing and gives herewith the actual facts, first learned on Saturady night. Friday afternoon John W. Tucker, a traveling saleman for a Lynchburg house, came In on the train from Fay ettevllle, stopping at the Benbow. He was not well, though he was around the Btreets and called to see Dr. Rich ardson, who thought he had chicken pox and told him to stay in his room. Mr. Tucker complained of sore throat and during the night sent again for Dr. Richardson. - About 1 o'clock the doctor said he began to think it was perhaps smallpox and Drs. Beall and Brooks were called In. They de ciaed it was suspicious and Tucker was sent to an unoccupied house foui miles from town-to develop the easel a man who had had the disease being sent along to nurse him. while it Is not yet a sure case the safe plan was aaoptea. Those who met Tucker are kept aloof rrom any one else, all of them vve been vaccinated anew so that the dan ger of the disease spreading is reduced to a minimum, for these people are unaer the surveillance of the doctor, .and the moment the least symptom Is shown thev will be sent out also. This in the event Tucker's case turns out to be genuine, of which there is yet aouDtv tireensboro Record, 25th.. Low Temporatur. In Alxbnmit Birmingham, Ala., January 26.

S lAV J Vu,,?r yjjracjin Curing Disease. Palne's celery compound is working miracles in the cure' of disease! So says a recent article by the fore most medical essayist in Boston. "Nothing shows more conclusively," he adds, "the astonishing capability of Paine's celery, compound than the thoughtful, open-minded class of people wtio use it and recommend it, both in oublic and among their closest and dearest friends and relatives. Among us (physicians) there is no longer any hesitancy in recommending this great ast remedy without stint of praise." About the same time the above arti cle was published there appeared in the "Boston Journal, the following letter from David K. Chasser, of 452 Windsor stree, Cambridgeport, a suburb of Bos ton: - " ' . "I take, great pleasure in testifying to the extraordinary merits of Paine's elery compound. For some time past T have been under the treatment of two well-known local doctors, but their "ombirred efforts proved of no avail.
