The Cruiser Vesuvius, one of Uncle

ed a derelict one mile north of Northeast
End lightship, probally the schooner
Uunitore, from Philadelphia, which sunk

The Vesuvius is is the same one
that is to destroy the dangarous
wrecks on the North Carolina coast.
Poets In Demand.
Spring poets are generally nt a dijeouut
but the merchants carnival caused any
one who was known to "write poetry'' to
spring into favor, as many youag ladies
wanted an original and suitable piece, to
recite.
It is hard to tell which was in the
worse pickle, the young lady who wanted
a good verse or the poetry writing citi
zen who was having dozens of the young
ladies to call upon him. However tnat
struggle is over. B-th pnrlirs were
probably taxed as severely as they wanted
to be and tohight will tell Ihe story of
the success.
Opening For a Night School.
fliero are numbers of young men in
New Berne who have taken up ilieir life
work, but who have nevertheless not
advanced as far in education as they wishi
especially on branches relating to prac
tical business book-keeping, commercial
arithmetic, lutsi ne-s forms and usages,
etc.
To these young men a night S'-fmol
inducted by a competent young nrin nl
such hours as thev could alien I, would
be an excellent thing in I we believe
there is an opening just at'this lime f.r
work of the kind. We believe, such a
school, if started, would be a good ihin::
both for the young men and for Ihe one
in charge.

The cold Friday, so often spoken of
