Tough Job oil a Clerk.
Yesterday morning at about 4 o'clock a
clerk in one of the shoe stores in this city
was raised bv a man who hammered and
-
; pounded on the door as if he were trying to
I route a doctor. The clerk put on his slip
pers, opened the door and inquired the
i cause of this unseasonable visit. The man
replied that he was to be married at 8
o'clock and was obliged to get a pair of
shoes just bound to have 'em. As the
aforesaid clerk is contemplating something
'.I of the same kind for himself he was moved
L by a fellow feeling to help this customer
out of his dilemma and, inviting him in,
began to show his stock of shoes. The
man waited until our friend had piled out
every shoe in the house, then said he be
lieved he wouldn't buy just then, but would
call again and left. The clerk of course
got out a warrant for his arrest, and was
line middest man in town an aay yesterday.
V Fell from his Roost.
Last night about 10 $ o'clock, a man
going through the train yard of the Wil
mington & Weldonailroad, saw a tramp
lying on the tractalmost under the high
foot bridge. He attempted to rouse him
J.by a vigorous kick, but to no purpose. An
examination proved that tne tramp was
insensible from some cause or another. As
sistance was summoned and he was re
moved to a house near by, where, after
considerable dosing - and rubbing; he re
gained consciousness. In. reply to an en
quiry as to "how he came so," he stated
that he took oue drink too much, sat down
on the edge of the bridge to rest,' and went
to sleep, and that was the last thing he re
members ; but he was pretty certain that
f ne had fallen to the track below. He fur
ther stated that his name was William An
dersonfisa painter by trade, and was on
' on his way to Charlotte! where he has re
latives.

Louise Pomeroy Last Mght.
The large and fashionable audience that
assembled at the Opera House last evening
ought to be grateful to Manager Edwards
for the "support" he furnished the "star''
of the troupe which presented -' The Adi
rondack" on Wilmington - boards for the
first time. Usually we have had tobe content
with one or two clever artists and-several
deplorably inefficient assistants.. Last night
every character was well sustained, while
Louise Pomeroy exceeded our expecta
tions. She his many of the essential re
quisites of a great artist. She is beautiful.
graceful, has a lithe, supple figure, a musi
cal, distinct voice, and great, magnetic
eyes that glitter one moment with the
baneful light of vanity and coquetry, and.
in the next moment grow poft with the uu
utterable pathos of a mighty, passionate
love, i .
"The Adirondacks" presented varied
scenes wherein she could display her power
and genius. Among the retreats of New
York's beautiful mountains -.-he appears
as a rich young widow, V.dUh lloyh
ton. Her suitors are legion. One. of
these unfortunate vounir rentlemen.
thiir Houghton, takes his life with J
a stiletto, which he legs of her as a ou.ve- 1
nir. An eccentric brother. Ualvh Challis, I
( W. II, I"ake), swears that he will avenge
his death. To. do this he woo's and "wins
Kdith Roylxto'n h heart. The charming
widpw, whose first love had cruellv de-"
ceived her, and who confesses s!i .married
old Mr. Roylston for his money, had for
sworn: love aud declared she had no heart.
She returns to New Yoik and Ralph
Chalfis follows her.. Insidiously he en
snares his victim. At an entertainment
given in her own elegant house he draws
forth a confession of her love 'lor him and
then spurns her ! These sentimantal com
monplaces are . relieved by frequent ap
pearances of Gnu Gnihjr,-, a good natured
"fellah of means aw," who is admirably
personated by one of our Wilmington fa
vorites, Edwin Brown,". Dr. Cutter (Jos.
L.Mason), who isi inferior to no member of
the company, Mi-x.-JnlSi.-iux, Kit! if, T7jby
and others.
After his revenge is satisfied 7fyi
Challis goes abroad ; his victim is first
desKrately ill and partially, recovers her
health with the loss of reason. I) r. Umhjer
devotes his time and skill to her. In the
course of events Chullis returns. The
doctor demands an immediate interview.
Her whilom lover has discovered in his
wanderings that he loves vi woman ho
scorned. " During his conversation 'with her
friend, the? doctor, Kdith enters pale,
emaciated and insane.- The lover's better
nature asserts itself; he confesses his "for
mer harshness and his love. Past recol
lections recall reason, to her de.-erted
throne and love triumphs.
In the dosing and intensely emotional
scenes, some of his gestures and peses were
a little awkAvard. As a hero of a romantic
V
love tale, and the idol of a very pretty
woman's Heart, his personal appearance is
against him. He seemed better suited to-
the wilds of the Adirondacks than the
salons of Fifth Avenue and Madison
Square. .
Miss Pomeroy has won hosst of cordial
admirers in our city. We would be pleased
especially to see her in "As You Like It."

that the old mode of comparing the votes
of the counties by the sheriffs, has been
abolished.- The sheriffs no longer form the

one capable of knowing ud .enjoying good
acting, Miss Pomeroy, who was in the
