' Suggestions for Christmas: an ap propriate present for "him", a lantern and a pair ol rubber boots. ' We regret to learn of the Illness ot little William..' son of Mr. and Mrs. W. K. Baxter, on New St The bell on the postofflce building commenced its duties yesterday. The tone Is deep, but not very loud. It gives a very pleasing sound. Mr. D. E. Henderson has been ap pointed trustee in the bankruptcy pro ceedings ot George J. Saad, now pend ing the United States courts. ,f The Christmas Herald, was put in circulation yesterday. It Is full ot good Christmas literature and ads. Mr, James B. Dawson Is the publish- In its feature of future Beaux and . Belles ot North Carolina, the por traits of aster Bryan Duffy and MHss Dolly Hyman appear in the Charlotte Observer ot last Sunday. i '' The Sunday edition of the daily pa pers had Christmas features In nearly all of them. The Charlotte Observer was especially fine with its illustra tions and advertisements. The Journal acknowledges the re ceipt of art calendars from Messrs. H. W. Simpson and H. C. Armstrong. Both are fine specimens of art Mr. of B. E. Ward's famous painting en titled "Beauty Triumphant" A rich find was made a few days ago exemplifllng the fad a good many seem to be following, that of hoarding money. A lot of bills was unearthed that had never been put in circulation although bearing the date of 1860 . 1862 and were as fresh as if Just re ceived from the treasury. The bills are in "five dollar denomination and amount in the aggregate to $250. Almost every day brings in evidence that advertising pays. In Sunday's Journal Mr. J. M. Spencer advertised for a ferret, which he prized very hlgh i ly. Yesterday two negroes caught a trange animal which they thought they would kill for its fur when one remembered the advertisement in the Journal and thought this animal ans wered the description, and after due Investigation found it was the same animal that had been lost and Mr. Spencer was rejoiced to get it back. Had it not been for the Journa "ad" that ferret would have been numbered with the dead. . This is typical Christmas weather and it does not require imagination to hear the sleigh bells ringing. The schooner Neptune, Captain Geo. Whitfield, master, arrived in port from nuuucuu wuii a iuhu ui uyBiers auu farm products. The services of Mr. N. M. Arnold formerly with J. L. McDaniel, have been securd as collector for the Metro . polttan Lite Insurance Company. The holiday feeling is getting strong er and trade la quite brisk now. Some merchants declare that trade is as good as average Christmas business. " There will be services at ' First . Church of Christ Scientist on Middle ' street near corner of Broad, this ev ening at 7:30 o'clock. AH are cordial ly invited to attend these services. The Bible theme for the prayer meeting at the Baptist Tabernacle this evening will be Regeneration and Re newal. Titus 3-5-6. All welcome. Noies or me aaaress iurmsnea an those attending. ' The Bayboro Land Lumber Com pany has closed up shop it looks now like, its permanent -They having dis charged their night watchman and cancelled their insurance on their big mill Bayboro Sentinel. , i The Journal office was given the pleasure of a serenade by the Knights of Pythias band last night We have mentioned their playing several times but last night they played better than ever. The popular airs were especial- , ly well played. ; "'. Repairs are being made on Middle street, at least it is said that the mosC daneerous holes Are beinz filled nn with oyster shells. Nice item to appear Hsiti t iwinriltlnn nf nm t9 iiM main streets of almost the oldest city in North Carolina. The city is going to some pains to collect the dog tax, and it is perfectly proper and right that the tax should be collected and paid. Another good thing is to kill all the dogs upon which no tax has Veen paid, then the sleep of the citizens would be less disturbed of nights. The Peoptes Bank is giving to its patrons a unique device in the shape of a cylinder with a pencil in one end and a pen In the other, which am ... -ruled when not In use. The c uv i.lr Ih very useful, first to adver t .. r i link's biiHliiess and then to i i i tl.i-lr proper spheres. r i v. i ul years, tfte colored people v 1 in have been keeping up : i in of Oiclr own, but they i t (.no i v Cry ever ' ! 1 4 i' Hi i't v.::: . ...u - . i;cr of t'vw , : 1' H kept ly j. 1 f (' 4 1 r. an industry, in this State, but care should be taken lest the holly, one ot the moBt beautiful of the Southern trees, is destroyed. It la very slow of growth and easily killed by cutting or trimming. Craven county has one ot the best constructed court houses in the State. It is really a credit to the -ceunQr. and In a little while it will nave a Jail that will be as much ot an ornament as a prison can be made, bnt the court house ha'never been finished. A clock in the tower would be a com pletion ot one of the original archi tectural plans and would be of a, great deal more service than the clock on the Federal building. Fair and colder la the weather tore- cast for today, x Mr. Allen Babbitt has taken a posi tion in the postofflce. The Journal acknowledges a hand some art calendar from the Oaks Mar- ket Transfers now charge 15 cents. This is no ad. It is five cents extra to ride. ' " : -; The strongest impression made up on every visitor to New Bern Just now, is its muddy streets and pave ments. .;- If it was not tor Amusea, during these dull nights, Byjove what would many of us do? And it only costs five cents, thus to Amuse you. The Christmas shopping had a set back yesterday on account of the rainy weather. The trade, however, is beginning to grow to some propor tions. The postofflce business is assuming the ordinary Christmas traffic and the tables are groaning under the weight of Christmas packages going and com ing. The editor is in receipt of a letter, asking his opinion on municipal own ership of electrc lights. Ths Is as Will Shakespeare once put it: "the most unklndest cut of all." While everything outside was wet enough, the Mayor's court, yesterday, was dry, no cases. It is getting too hard times to have to pay even the costs, not to include the fines. The weather yesterday was the damp, raw, penetrating variety that makes a man throw bricks at his best friend. It was the kind that makes grip and kindred ailments. It the city electric light people can possibly do so, please give a light service from now until Christmas', be ginning at 4:30 afternoons, and the street lights shortly after 6 o'clock. A big 80,000 gallon tank is being placed on the Carolina Paper Pulp Company's building in James City, tor fire protection. It will be so placed as to be easily seen from New Bern. The city street force were putting coal cinders on the walk, crossings yesterday afternoon, which was great deal more sensible and practi cal than raking the mud to one side with a hoe. A very nice two story brick build lng.is being erected on the site ot the former graded school for the color ed race, which will be used in future as the public educational institution for that race.

Taxes are always due unless paid. No doubt, several tax payers have not paid yet Why not surprise the city collector or sheriff Biddle, by pay ing up. And it would surprise these gentlemen and be a good Joke. Good progress is reported on the arrangements for the Elks Christmas tree for the poor children. This at traction Is perhaps the most antici pated and the most enjoyed event in the year for' the children for whom It is meant .. '" " ,' . v ' Mr. George A. Barfoot is the travel ling representative ot Leon, Michael ft Company, New York, Importers of laces and embroideries. Is In the city. Mr. Barfoot's territory Is North and South Carolina, and he thoroughly en Joys his new work " Any way, If it should happen that the Christmas shopper should not get what be wants he should not blame the Journal for it because this paper has not failed to warn the people to make their purchase early and thus avoid the rush. ,-, Mr. 8. R. Stret who was out Tues day night watching the fire destroy the home of Mr. David Congdon, re marked to the Journal reporter, "I lived in that house in the beginning of the Civil war, and it was an old house then." : There is nothing further known as to the origin ot the fire which de stroyed Capt Congdon's home Tues day night There are suspicious cir cumstances which point to the work ot burglars, but that cannot be sat' isfactorily verified. The contents and goods were insured. , .. , . Householders will be wise in keep ing their doors and windows locked at night, and not leave their premies open even during the day time.

' ' The Williams Comedy Company which appears here in repertoire next week will give an entirely new and popular line of plays. The members of the oompany are talented people and we may rest assured that the holiday week will have something good at the opera house. Several advertisements in these columns recently, tell of lost .pocket books and money. It is alwaya had to lose money, and specially so just now. It any finder of a loBt article. peclally money, would restore It seek to find its owner, some poor man might be greatly helped by the act The country buyers who want to reach this city, must come by. the railroad, for the county roads are gen erally reported as unpassable. Sever al cases are reported of countrymen having to abandon their vehicles, these ' getting so deeply mired, that neither horse nor mule could pull out Farm ers had to unhitch and ride away on horseback to their homes. , Two or three days ago, mention was made that turkeys were selling tor seventeen cents the pound gross, that Is feathers and all. - But how the mighty has fallen! A farmer who was In town yesterday reported that he couldn't make a sale of a few goblers for delivery next week at twelve cents a pound. , So It is probable that others besides those of great wealth will have turkey for Christmas. s The Canal (Panama) Zone Record ot December 4th received at this of fice yesterday and from which we quote frequently, devotes a full page to the churches and religious services In the Zone. There appears to be a great Interest taken in rellgous af fairs there in spite of reports that rice and Immorality hold sway in that country. Society also occupies a large place in the life of the place. New Bern has made a good deal of history, in fact it is considered a his torical bid town, but most of its his tory is tradition. Forty or fifty years ago a brief history of the town was published, and about twenty years ago series of letters were published in the Journal, written by a prominent citizen ot the time, giving his remin iscences, which were Interesting, but really no good history ot the town has ever been written. Somebody ought to write a history. With the modern facilities for printing and illustrat ing a pretty nice book can be got out with little expense. The Journal dislikes to mention it but there was a good deal of com ment yesterday .not very favorable either, on acount of the tardiness of the fire wagons at the fire. It Is said that the drivers and helpers slept through the alarm and had to be a wakened by the men who went to the house. Then the horses that drew the wagons were such at to make the de partment a farce. We have no rlt Iclsm to make of the firemen at work for we believe that no men or . set of men could have worked harder to put out a fire but we feel that we voice the sentiment of nearly all cit izens that there must be some differ ent arangementa made in going to fires. The Literary Department of the Woman's Club will meet this after noon at 4 o'clock at the Elks Club rooms. ' . '.' ' Mr. H. A. Cox, operator of the..

Only 12 bodies bad been recovered up to dark. Fewer than 100 men were In the mine. !. The cause ot the explosion has not been officially determined. The mine has been pronounced free from gas by the State Inspectors and It Is sup posed that the explosion was caused by dust For two hours after the ex plosion it was Impossible even to venture near the mouth of (he mine, so hot was the. air, that rushed out ' The explosion waa below the second right subentry.

What will appear very Interesting to many people here is the. article taken from a New York daily paper, giving a simple prescription, as fqrmulated by a noted authority, who claims that he has found a positive remedy te cure almost any case of backache or kidney or bladder derangement in the following simple prescription, If taken before the stage of Brlght'a disease: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup of Sarsaparllla, three ounces. Shake welt In a bottle and take In teaapoonful doses after each meal and at bedtime. ' . A jrell known druggist here at home when asked regarding this prescrip tion, stated that the Ingredients are alt harmless, and can be obtained at a email cost from any good prescrip tion pharmacy, or the mixture would be put up if asked to do. so. He fur tber stated that while this prescrip tion is often prescribed in rheumatic afflictions wth splendid results, he could ?ee no reason why It would not be a splendid remedy for kidney and urinary troubles and backache, as it has 'a peculiar action upon the kidney structure, cleansing these most Impor tant organs and helping them to sift and filter from the blood the foul ac ids and waste matter which cause sick ness and suffering.
