A Pleasing Entertainment.

The entertainment given by the Asbury
Kings daughters, on Saturday evening,
was n success In every particular. While
in the language of one of old, the pace
was too straight for them, yet they man.
aged toleraby we'll. Being conscious OF
the fact that the room was small they
were careful about Offering any more
tickets than they could accommodate
with teats. But the friends kept coming
and paying their money at the door until
our eyes began to grow larger with won
der as to where we should find seats for
them. The only drawback was at the
opening OF the program, when the organ
was so exceedingly anxious to play that
when 1t got started it didn't want to stop,
and Prof Potter gave 1t up in disgust.
The young men from the fourth story
very kindly offered the use of theirs, and
SO we were placed under debt OF graft.
tude to the Red Men for their instru-

Floyd read short sketch, explanatory
of the work OF the Kings Daughters,
which was followed by an anthem by the
Union choir, entitled 80, How Excel
lent" which was followed by recita-
ton by Mr.. Jos. Woodward, given in his
own inimitable style. Miss Ella Marvel
gave reading, "Tho Old Hymn Book"
which was very sweet In expression.
Then followed solo by Mr.. Muh hansen,

Miss Mabel GEM recited "Her first

laudable purpose and very properly
rented them the rooms. About three
months afterwards he went TO the rooms,
and instead OF newspapers, periodicals
aud libraries. ho found u sideboaTd and
beer kegs, and lie told them that they
must get out.
No doubt some of tlesc boys deceived
their parents in the same manner, aud
ZONE OF their parents were very likely
glad that their dear boys had found u
place where they could enjoy themselves,
for II was so dun ut home with nobody
but parents and brother and sistcr TO
pass away the lonely hours. Sadly mis-
taken, indulgent parents. All this time
your boys were being debauchod and
ruined In the club room. You parents
have made a mistake. You should have
a home social club that would TO more
attractive than the vicc-gilded lfma Cluh
and others like II.
Whatever has been tnii IN this article
does not apply 10 legitimate, literary and
useful associations. Not word will bC
said TO reflect upon one OF them.
The immoral, deata-brceding eocis
clubs that debauch and ruin the youth o

rected at. What n Pity 1t Is that al
latenta cannot zee the gradual steps thai
lead 10 these dens OF vice. The ir.t steI
may bo cigarette or dime novel. Til,
second the hip pocket revolver and tn,
night key. The third the harmless glass
OF beer and then the club. Home associ
ations should be such that there woul'
he no desire for young men to go beyont
the threshold of their own doors Tor socla
enjoy ment that leads 20 vice. Let tn
outside social club go down and, Tia
home club be elevated In every family.

The Tax Collectors.


spicy correspondent writes as follows
from rural hundred:
"That Internal REPUBLICAN will ruin
us and our party" This, Messrs. Edi-
tor', is the expression often hear since
you and others commenced the crusade
on our tax collectors. al know one
thing" said one, "they can't hurt US in
Wilmington, for we have things too we'll
liked for them, but hang IL. 1t Is the out
side hundreds where they are playing the
devil" Now, Messrs. Edi'ors, since this
modus operandi of collecting taxes has
been going ON know oil votes that your
paper has made. / also know that as
long as you keep hammering at them by
the time the next election comes around
they Will stink in their holes and pull the
holes In after them. You amt even sat
isfied about the way we collect our taxes,
member OF our Levy Court gets.
Now We have for 1885, Mr.. Hickman
IS for every working day, S030.00. Mr..
Jordan, our Mill Creek hundred man,
gets for 80 days within a fraction OF
2.63 per day. Pretty good business the
year round. Rothwell, OF Blackbird
hundred, does trlhe better than Jor-
dan, and 60 on down the list. Now don't
say anything about 1887 or 1883 for
awhile anyhow. Then again, l don't
want you to say anything about our
county treasurer's salary, for we all
know that 1t is $500 from the county and
$500 from the Poor Board. reckon he
pays to the county with his right hand
aud to the Poor Board with his left. 1t
must be awful hard work for him, but II
pays. No wonder the ins want TO stay In
and keep the other fellows our. Then
again you think some OF your ex-Coun-
clmen should step up TO tie rack and
fork over come back pay. You don't
stop to thiuk how hard they worked for
that money, do youi And please don't
say any more about it, and Just as soon
as they can get dlvvy out of some
other job they will fork over.
Taxes, oh, yes, almost forgot. can.
not help but laugh when think of that
poor reporter Of the Every Eyening when
he pulled of his coat, rolled up bic
sleeves, and was going TO run the tax
mill for just won leetle day." How ouI
friend Dougherty smiled on him rnd
told him to git" and he "got." Wha'
a mistake the reporter made. "If ! had
only stopped, he thought, show could
the soup, but it is too late row, aud thi
, tax mill must be run on business p.inci

Now, whenever you strike o man
pocket-book you strike his heart, au,
the solid Democrats are beginning to se
) that II the taxes were collected their taxe
+ would be lower, or they VIC uld have NOR

and to build school houses, The scale
