reached a climax to-day when the an

special counsel Henderson instantly
dismissed. The whisky men are iuti-
liant, as they have reason TO be, since.
in the the removal Of Mr.. Henderson,
who has been familiar with the details y
OF the ring for months, their chances
OF escape are greatly increased. No
new nam can take up the complicated d
threads of evidence so as to become so
dangerous a prosecutor. Under the
circumstances, iC is not too much TO
say that the removal il considered A
high handed and arbitrary exercise of
power, which, if not in the interest of
tie whisky ring amounts in its results
to the same thing. Mr.. Eeuderson

Miss Katie Putnam at the Grand Opera
Last evening about six hundred
people assembled in the Grand Opera
House TO witness the debut of Miss
Kate Putnam in our city. The play
selected was dranatizatiun of "The
Old Curiosity Ship" one of the most
charming Of all the Dickens novels
Miss Putnam appearing in the dual role
of Little Nell and The Marehtoness. Her
acting was thoroughly enjoyable in
both characters and in her conception
OF the Mdrchioness, she is superior
to Lolita. The supporting company
was very fair.
The Dick .Ssiceler" of Mr.. Pratt
was especially good and Verney'
"Quap" was quite diabolical. 'raker
all together, last nights performanc,
was one of the best ever given in OIL
city, and has established Miss Putnam
as Wilmington favorite.
Tonight will be given The Daugh
ter of the Regiment" in two acts, fol
lowed by THE Little Rebel" Mis-
Putnam appearing in both plays. W
advise all to 60 who wish to patroniz
q good company, and spend an enjoy

"Would it be safe to take young child

more SO than it would be to take your

but 1 probably slept under a warm
blanket every night.
"Do you have much rainy or other
wise disagresble weather 2" If people
do not see the bright sunshine here
every day they call the weather disa-

has been more cloudy, damp, and disa-
greeable than has been seen for fifty
years, yet an out door laborer has not

the atmosphere in winter is remarkably
dry, highly charged with electricity and
ozone; and every day is usually such as
a person in delicate health may enjoy
walking, riding, or working out doors.
"Do you ever have yellow fever

Again. hear the creaking stepl
He's rapping at the door,
Too well 1 know that boding sound
That ushers in the bore.
I do not tremble when / meet
The stoutest of my foes,
But heaven defend me from the frien,
Who comes but never goes.
He drops into my easy chair,
And asks about the news;
He peers into my manuscript,
And gives his candid views;
He tells me where he likes the line,
And where he's forced to grieve;
He takes the strangest liberties
But never takes his leave.
He reads my daily papers through
Before I've seen a word.
He scans the lyric that wrote
And thinks it quite absurd;
He calmly smokes my last cigar,
And calmly asks for more;
He opens everything he sees-
Except the entry door,
He talks about his fragile health,
And tells me Of his pains;
He suffers from a score of ills
OF which he ne'er complains;
And how he struggled once with deatl
To keep the iend at bay;
On themes like those away he goes
But never goes away!
He tells me of the carping words
Some shallow critic wrote,
And every precious paragraph
Familiarly can quote.
He thinks the writer did me wrong,
He'd like to run him through
He says thousand pleasant things
But never says "Adieu"
Whene'er he come-that dreadful man
Disguise it as may,
1 know that like an autumn rain,
He'll last throughout the day.
In vain 1 speak of urgent tasks,
In vain I scowl and pout;
A frown is no extinguisher-
1t does not put him ouR
[ mean to take the knocker off;
Put Grape upon the door;
Or hint to John that am gone
To stay month or more;
1 do not tremble when 1 meet
The stoutest of my foes;
But heaven defend me from the frient
Who never, never goes!
