At more important points throughout the United States a complete equipment for printing the reports issued by the weather bureau wilt be instituted and doubtless the work, generally will be Improved in other ways - An equipment of (his kind is planned for North Carolina. The State w.aber ser - vice remains a part of the experiment. station and will have no connection with Ihe weather bureau, although' the work ' ? ' iforraerly dune by the State weather service y ' will be continued by the climate and crop eervice of the U. 8. weather bureau. ' The August Bullet'n.of the Agricultural T department will contain an accurate list of - all the cotton mills and other rainufacto- ' rles in the State and hence will be of marked vulu;. ' Cotton' milling interests . , are now getting something of a check in the State, yet' several mills, are in course of construction and others are planned.

Ba baa played a big game' and is still ' playing, fit is very hard to say what he is after. . Tbo reticence of bis followers Is reat'0nib Wilson tbe chief one here is dumb as an oyster regarding what may or fwlll be done at the Populist Stale conven ' lion. For Instance Wilson can now name (J the nominee lor LUutenanlXiovernor, but aays he must not do ao. , ,. ; - Senator 'Butler will nuke things, lively ,' fpr Hie Republicans as tbe Beprrsentntlves ?. of the trusts, and monopolies. lie will also make things quite lively for Bewail. Dr. Cyrns Thompson, the president of the Stato farmers alliance, was here todav , on his way to Mllsboro to attend its an nual meeting, ths first in its new bead ' quarters.' The tannery will be in opera tion so the aliancemen can see some of their own leather. In a little while tbeycao wear shoes of .their own making. 'For a couple of years or more the fortunes of tbe , alliance has been at a very low ebb and the membtrsbip list shrank nearly to a skeleton, but it is Said there is now an increase in mcjnbenhip.' - The greatest membership ever given out waa 105,000' and there were over 8,100 sub-alliances. No perhaps there are 10,000 members In good standing. Tlie alliance organ, the rnigreaklve Fairoer, has a much larger ciiculation than Senator Bullet's paper. President Charles D, Molvcrof the Stale Normal and Industrial school was here ymterday lo bis return from the dee. con's and elders' Presbyterian Jflstitute at I' d Springs, Robeson county,' and says ' the attendance was quito laruo, at least 2,t; .o daily, - Lei Iws received here say tbe Harrlng (on ti' i hone company ' of Richmond i lis to e (ablish on exchange heit, 1" 't 1b ii 'i:rt ;:ling and lmpoitant to get 1,3 li; ht poilile oa the gieat question 'i!e ol the Don x ratio Stato com. i ! in pivjio iiii liiMon clectorally will i- -s.

White, secretary of tbe Baptist state mission board, cameiii yesterday from tbe piedmont section and says that at Pilot mointain and Beklah Baptist associations all the Democrats be talked with favored electoral fusion.' To use bis phrase the country people, Democrats and Popul.sts are bound together by the silver cord and arc nearer logethcr than at any time since the war. The churches, he adds were once split but all are now. united on sil ver. He says he rejoices at this.- Rev. W G. Clements ol this county, was asked what he heard among his county flock as to the matter. - He asseits that Democrats and Populists all like the idea. There is not a Republican in bis township. He says that in the country there are more Popu lists than Democrats iu Wake. . Ths penitentiary authorities will have to make every edge cut these days.' Tbe loss of $05,000 by tho frtshete in tbe Roanoke is a heavy blow, which nearly -taggers them. Fifty mulea have been brought here from one of the Roanoke firms, toMianl 1,000 cords of wood for use in brickmaking and also to haul bricks Tbe risk of Roanoke iaraiing is now very apparent, but the farms are lease!, the leases have yet 8, 5 aud 6 years to run respectively. It is quite a disappointment that work oa the Baptist State Female University here is not to begin until Spring. Tlieie it quite a lot of talk about tlie sudden change ot the date of the Bepub liean State committee meeting to tbe 15th It is tbe current comment that it is a sharp trick. John A. Phocbuj, a nephew of Prof. W. F. Massey of tho Agricultural aud Mechanical college, has arrived here from New York on his bicycle. The silveritcs will in considerable num bars attend the Populist State convention next Thursday. Will any silver Republl cans be present, is a question a good many people are asking. The call is to all silver men. NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS. Baslne talet ihl Week. Barter Next WMk. Campaign Work Belli - OrKnntied. Document ScntOnt. Special. New York, August, 8.

Various Items. I Journal Bureau, J Wilmington, N. C. Aug; 8. With the first hot days of summer, even before the sun had assumed that fierce and emphatic heat which he has now taken on, the sound ol the ice cream man was heard on the street. It was a novel idea. For five cents a block of ice cream could be purchased wrapped in paper, and delivered from the perambu lating cart by a man dressed in white. It has been a cooling sight for the past two months, and a seductive charm is about it, which is too much for visitors to the city. Out comes a nickel before they thiuk, and soon they are munching, the concentrated cold cream, with a happy expression. Then tbe soda-watei foun tain comes in for its share ot patronage. This year tbey all have electric funs and a man is to be envied standing beneath, this wind-producer quaffing the "soft drinks'' through a straw. Tho very though of going to the opera house this weather is enough to give one a fever. But the men who play the bones and work off old jskes, on au audience for so much a joke, were apparently oblivious to the beat. Biirlow Bros., put in an appearance on Wednesday night, and played to a limited audience at the opera bouse. Wo do not suffer often from fakirs, quack doctors and the like, but for the past week the colored population have offered up their hard earned dollars at the shrine of one, who claimed to be a con jurer and dealer in the blackarts. : Alter this bad been coins; on for some time with no return to the investors, a warrant was issued- and now ther impostor is spend iug bjs days at the jail. The important office of cattle weigher lias been in dispute lor many months Back and fourth went tbe dlecusion from the Police Board to tbe Board of Alder men, two men claiming the place. At last it is decided who shall bold the lucrative position. Ooa Thomas A. Watsou has produced a satisfactory bond and is de. clared cattle weigher for tho city of Wil mington., . Tbe first bale of this year's cotton crop arrived here yesterday. It was grown in South Carolina. This is the earliest date for cotton it this point, tlie! average dale for the first bale being August 10th. The cotton was consigned to Alex Sprout & Son. w henever Wilmington sends a repre sentative to Charlotte to coolest in athletic sporls there, the Charlotte contestants seem to delight in disablinn them. Tbe Wil ruingtou football team at Christmas time were treated shamefully. ' This week one ofoor crack bicyclist went up to Char lotte to compete in tbe races and tbe first day he was run into and disabled so much that be could not take part in tbe next days races. Tbe Red men had a great day in New Berne yesterday, although a hot one. The base ball boys are happy, as they took tbe game away from' New Berne and brought It back last night. ; , Mr. W. R. Kenan, Jr., son of our Col lector of Customs, is visiting his family here, preparatory) to his trip to-Australia. He has been employed at Niagara, New York, by tbe Eleetro-Gas Co., and is sent by them to put up their plants, In Australia He expects to be gone a year. Work on tbe railroad that is to be be tween Wilmington and South port is bciog pushed despite the toi rid beat. The contractors find it bard to get men to work, the heat being too much for the laborers. ,, ;,.
