A Want Supplied.

The new Commercial College to be
located in Wilmington supplies want
long felt. Practical education is what
the youth must have. The curriculum
OF the public and private schools is too
comprehensive to give special attention
to any one department Of study. This
must be left to the technical school.
The institution about to be permanently
located here aims to thoroughly prepare
young men and women for commercial
life. The equipment of the college will
be complete, and its practice depart
ment with its businsss houses will be a
special feature. A course in this insti-
tuition would be time and money well
spent, no matter what the intended pur.
suit. See adv.

Burned at the Stake.

SAVANNAH, Ga, July 27.-An aged
negress named Mary Hallenbrick was
burned at the stake In Tatnall County
yesterday. The punishment was the
penalty for the willful murder of a
young colored child that had been left
in her charge. The horrible sentence
was pronounced by self-constituted
jury of colored people, all of whom wit
messed the death of the woman, whose
tortures, bound hard and fast to stake
and surrounded by fagots which had
been saturated with kerosene, were,
like her offense, too horrible to describe.
