The presiding of Llut. (lov. Reynold
In tba Senate has met with no criticism
In the Senate as yet He seems anxious
for the prompt and harmonious despatch
of business. The amusing rdemand of
the negro Senator Fuller in the Senate
to know "whether be would lie beard on
this floor In behalf of his race," when he
was being quietly listened to with no
Indication otherwise, led to some arnue
ing remarks. After adjournment Rey
nolds jokingly demanded of a group of
Democratic Senators, "aren't you going
to let our man be heard."

A. Cuniuggim, "Uncle Jesse," who
died at his home in Orcensboro, Satur

took tor his text the appropriate words
of Paul beginning "I have fought the

listened to the sermon as the church
was tilled to the doors.
The Craven Memorial Hall at Trinity
College is partially completed and now
shows that it will be a striking structure.
The charter for Wilmiugton now be
far the Legislature is quite seriously
objected to by many. It is proposed to
to take the chief administrative powers,
such as the management of the fire and
police departments, and place the power
in the hands of three individuals elected
for six years, nor shall the mayor be
electe j by the aldermen. The bill was
introduced by Mr. Rountree and will be
well discussed.
The big Confederate Bazaar to be

Washington, Jan. M.-The threatening
condition of affaire In the Philippines
has been receiving the serious considera
tion of both tbe Navy and the War De
partments, anil while the latter Is
hurrying troops lo reinforce General
Otis from both Ssn Fraurisco anil New

present strength of Admiral Dewey's
command by dispatching light draft gun
boats as soon as they can be git ready
for the trip.
Admiral Dawey anticipates an abund
ance of work for tlie navy In palroling
the Innumerable inlands of the archipel
ago and suppressing any uprisings
against American authority To enable
him to belter control affairs, he requires
a large fleet of small warships capable
of long steaming Tadlus and uble to enter
asters Into which the larger ships ran
not go. Ills squadron is now nearly aa
formidable as that on the station a year
ago, and with the addition of the little
craft under orders to join him will soon
reach unusual proportions for an Ameri
