Tht beautiful Attar Cloth, Made by Mrs boston Meared of Wilmington, for Bt James Cbureh, which took first prem at the Fair on Eclesiaitical Embroidery, was trusly work of art At a meeting of the Naval Reserve last night resolutions of appreciation were passed thanking the New Berne Fire Ds partment for courteies shown in) joining the parade of escort to the Wilmington companies here during the Fair. ' The Btate Convention of the Y. M. C. A., will oe held in Wilmington this year, from April the 8th. to 8tb. Arrange- ments are being made by the New Berne Association to be represented. Mr. R. B. Nixon baa moved . his law .. office to the second floor of the Duffy building corner of Pollock and middle ' i Sis. His office, as wall as that of Sir. W. D' Mclver. who is located on the same ' . floor, will hare electric signal connec- - tioa from the Middle St. entrance. . The Round Table, published by the faculty and students of the Goldsboro ' - graded schools, contains a nice little let ' ; ter on the New Berne Fa'r written by one -'. of tbe pupils ot the school. It well' shows '"- the splendid object lesson that can be obtained at Fairs. " . ' The tug David B. Hill, was the boat which met President Cleveland and par ty at Norfolk. .The President was in ' clined to think that coming after faim . with a boat ef that name was 'a put up . job, but he was told it was mearld a co- incidence. - - The Wilmington Messenger tells of the " following big days sport by some of .?. its hunting citizens. Mr. T. D. Mearea,"' Thomas and Richard Mearea, Mr. D. Bor deaux and Mr. Norwood Hnske took ad vantnire of the excellent weather yester ' clay to sea what they could do in the way of sporting with the birds and "wild var mints."JThey took 'to the woods, and what do you think they did! They bag god seventy-two quail, thirteen, squirrels and one o'possura. They saw two drove of ' wild turkeys, hut got none of them. One of the diggers for the water works construction attracted some - attention yesterday by the arrangement of his hair along the sides of his head, it was cut very dose and on top left quite long. The way it stood up was calculated to make an ordinary observer think he had on a narrow close fitting cap reaching from his fifrehead to the rear of his head. It was a debatable point whether he was trying to introduce a new style of hair cut or whether tbe financial depression ! :1 b '' khim and he was trying to lscaJ gear. The Water Werka. 1871 feet of water works pipe were laid yosterday good daya work. 40, 000 feet will laid altogether. The work is now completed on East Front street from Queen to short atroct with hydrants a' each come- passwi. It is alae completed up Union street and up Johnson aa far as Hancock street with toe exception that one hydran remains to be put in today at the junction of Johnson and Middle. Tbe txcavationa for further pipe laying extended to Metcalf wktre the last hy drant for that street wII be located. About a square and a half wis opened on Pollock street, and the pipe layers will no doubt be at work there this after noon. Twelve inch pipe will be used on Pol lockstreet throughout its length and tba same on Queen street from its junc tion with Pollock on to the water works fiviug an unbroken main line of that size. Eight inch pipe will be used on all of Queen street except the part just spoken of as having tbe twelve inch and six inch will be used everywhere else. Nearly all water works systems have some four inch pipe; we have none, con sequently a good stream will be turnisb eil all over the eity. Coming and doing. Caj)t. K. E. Terry, of Stella is in the city on his way to Baltimore; he leaves this morning. Mr. J. A. Meadows nod Mr. Thos. Meadows, went down to Wiimington yesterday on business. Mr. Hill Humphrey returned from Jacksonville last uight wbcro he has been spending a few days. Mrs J. F. Giles and son, of Jacksonville are in the city stopping at Mr. Hii Hum phrey's. Capt. Dave Roberts is in tin city lor a snort time witu Ins government steamer Gen. Geo. Thoiu. Capt. Pritcbelt. of Baltimore, who for a long time ran to this port his last command, bsiug the steam er Newbern, previous to Captain South gate's assuming charge, took tin round trip on the steamer Albemarle. Old friends were glad to see him again. Mr. and Mrs. C. M. Kehoe left on the tenner Newbern to visit Mrs. Kulioe's sister, Mrs, Wooil of Norfolk. Messis. F. J. Lennox, Win. J. Congdon and M. Lewis of Utica, N. Y., are in tbe city stopping at the Fnlford House. Mr. Lennox is superintendent 6f construction for Russel Wheeler & Son of Utica, N Y. Manufacturers of ilot water Heaters ami Hot air lurnaccs. Tlicy are now en gaged in erecting a hot water heating plant for Mr. C. E. Foy in bis residence in this city. We learn that quite a num bar of our citizeus are contemplating having the same Company to put in heat ing plant for them. Amature Fairs, Every year after the East Carolina Fair has its exhibition, the small boys of the city organize themselves into Fair Associations, and hold Fairs for weeks afterwards, This year a company of girls about a dozen years of age, with no idea of being outdone have opened a fair of their own, at Mrs. E. S. Streets' to hold every afternoon this week from 3 to 6 o'clock. They charge ten cents for a season ticket, and three cents tor one admission, and have a side show of dealing dolls which they charge five cents admission. We Inquired who was the President; "Oh," was the reply, "we are all Presi dents." A Good Article on Jew Bern. Last night's Wilmington Messenger had a fine column and a quarter article oa-tbe city of New Berne, its possibilities and high future. The article treats of the transportation, the city government, the manufactures, flab markets, shipping. water-supply, hotels and newspspers, fish ing and trucking interest etc. It gives us credit for being one of the finest fish marketa to be found in any part of the country, of being the center of the best tracking section of the country of . having many large manufacturing enterprises which it enumerates, and of New Berne's being a desirable place to invest capital in. Trackers Expressing . Thenuelve oa Transportation Hatters. The- Charleston, S. C, ' truckers are striving for more satisfactory railroad accommodations on track transportation by raiL , They want lower rates and also better service. 1X ;: " : "" ':-.'; ? ; ,"' It is well enough for those affected to investigate and take action upon these things ahead of the season- it will be loo late then to act effectively . ; i s ::': , We learn irom the Kinston Free Press that two Kinston gentlemen, . Messrs. J. W. Grainger and IV Harvey, went to Wilmington to see the coast line officials and try to make arrangements tor having quick transportation at cheaper rates for Kinston truck via Norfolk. - . The Charleston trackers waat to ar range for their truck'to be earried to Norfolk and thence North by boat. Now if the W. N. N... B. R. was already built on through to Norlolk there would be a big run of business it might securu. We all hope to see the extension made before long. It will mean a vast Increase of business for the road and a great help for New Berne at the same time. ' ': i PREMIUMS AWiBDEl. At the Sevemk Exhibition ef the E. C. t 0. . I. IssociaUee.
