The CastaWays.

Last evening witnessed the produc-
tion of this startling nautical drama.
Unlike most plays of this class it is
based on motive and that is the ex-
posure of those Williams who send ships
to sea risking lives of men for greed of
insurance. 1t has plot which is not
only strong but within the bonds of prob
ability. 1t has a dialogue which is terse,
epigrammatic and brilliant. The dra-
matte climaxes are as novel as unexpec-
while the cast fill ably the truly nau-
tical characteristic pictures.
The noble tar (Mr. Chapman) made a
decided hit and Miss Halford was excel
lent both as fisherwoman and sailor boy.
The Little MILDLY is capital piece of
stage work by Little Mabel, and Mr..
Lindley's humour is undeniable.
Tonight, out Of Difference to one Of
our clubs, Little Lord Fauntleroy" will
be produced, and the press gives Little
Mabel unstinted praise for its rendition.
The Norfolk Landmark says:
"She is the sweetest exponent of the
play even with the memory of three
| others before u.s."

Mai. j. w. Wilson Returns to the Old
North State.

Maj. J. W Wilson, well known in this
State as a civil engineer and protector Of
the famous engineering feat at Round
Knob, on the Western North Carolina
railroad, and who has been Superinten
dent Of the Knoxville, Cumberland Gap
aud Louisville railroad for some years,
has resigned and returned to his native
State.
The Knoxville papers speaking of Maj
Wilson says:
We regret to see Major Wilson sever
his connection with this road, of which,
as chief engineer, he directed the con-
struction, and the business of which he
has developed as superintendent. He is
one Of the ablest railroad men in the
South, and any railroad enterprise which
could secure his services would be fortu-
nate. AS man he has won host of
warm friends in Knoxville, and no rail
road official stands higher in the estima-
ton of our people.
No mans service has been more valua
bio in every department that Maj Viii
sons, and it is not to be wondered at
| that the road has deferred accepting his
resignation as long as possible.
Knoxville has always had hopes Of
| Major Wilson becoming a permanen
| citizen, but the chances are now agains
| such an excellent accession to our popu
| lation.

CHRISTMAS MISSIyES.

Especial Cor. of STATE CHRoNICLE.)
BY MRS. LOUIS E. AMIs.
Twas Christmas eve-and through the
icy air,
There came mournful wall of loneliness
and pain,
AS though some wandering spirit hover
Ing there,
In shroud of snow and sleet. still asked
The way to life, and happiness, and loveu'
And as L listened to that walling sound,
So sad-so wild and desolate-s0 full of
woe,
prayed ..thas soon the answer might be
That God would hear that spirits wall,
and show
The way, with light and guidance from
above.''
And then, behold! vision came, so bright
mat my poor earthly eyes were dimmed
and daZed,
AS looked up-and through the wintry
night
Beheld THE STAR OF BETHLRHEMr'
Then raised
Ny eyes again, and saw written scroll
On which were words of love, and hope,
and hope and trust;
And then heard a voice tnat said. Gun
roll,
And read my message, child of DUST"
Aud then read these words, that to my
Brought comfort, peace, and even real
joy
Pray %, on my child-for God can give thee
And more than thou dost ever ask or
need;
And to the weary, wailing spirits call
He hears, hear, and gives in answering pity,
So then 1 bowed my head in grateful
Until the vision spoke again, and said,
Read on" l then my fearful eyes did
raise,
And reading, found these Words
TO every one on earth God gives
A burden to be carried down the road,
That lies between the weary cross that
grleves,
And Heavens bright crown of JOY" The
Is Gods own gift-and We who try to bear
Shall grow in strength-yet if it press
too heavily,
CAST ALL ON GOD-and it shall easy be-"
SO then my lonely heart grew calm and
light,
The wailing spirit hushed it's wceful cry;
l looked once more out on the wintry
night,
And round the one bright star that rose on
high
| We're myriads more-the whole earth
teemed
With peace and joy!-and thus it seemed
That Heavenly heralds brought these
missives sweet,
That sad and lonely hearts may rise to
greet
The coming dawn-the first bright
cleaning ray
OF Christmas morn-the Christ-child s
ratal day!

IT'S BENEFIT TO THE FARMERS.
Means for Reaching the Agriculturist
OF the State--Extracts from the Sixth
Biennial Report.


ofthe state--Extracts from the Sixth
Biennial Report.
DR.. D. b. Battle, Director of the Ap-
ricultural Experimental Station, has
just sent in his sixth biennial report to
Governor Fowle. From it we gather
the following:
Through CO operation with the Station,
the various Alliances and Oranges and
farmers clubs have been requested to
form "eXperimental committees" for the
purposes of causiDg more close contact
with the work Of the Station and the
farmers. Through the means which are
now being elaborated, the plan vi l IN
doubtediy prove very instructive and
valuable to the farmers. Very many of
these experimental committees have
already been formed, and are now in
correspondence with the Station Several
members Of the Station staff have
assisted in the formation of farmers
Institutes, and have delivered many ad
dresses on agricultural subjects; in ad
lion they have visited the farms in
many localities for the purpose of be
coming more intimately acquainted with
their owners and the practical opera
tions carried on.
The Experiment Station is now doing
far more efficient, instructive and val
| liable work than ever before in its
history. That the work of the Station
is far more widely distributed, and is ia,
more widely appreciated than at any
time previously. What is being planned
and being carried out is intended for the
! farmers in their actual operations.
