a Good Attendance at the Monthly Meet
ing Last Night.
Nineteen firms were present at the
regular monthly meeting Of the Real
Estate Exchange last night, and Presi-
dent Dupuy was in the chair. The ex.
change decided to have a pamphlet
about Roanoke published for distribu-
ton. The matter Of joining the State
Exchange was deferred until the July
meeting.
j. R. Hockaday, ex-president Of the
exchange, rendered his resignation as
member Of the organization.
There was quite q lively discussion as
to whether members of the exchange
should be allowed to sell lots TO negroes
except in the black districts, but the
matter passed over without action.

Kindness of South Sea Islanders to a
Shipwrecked Crew

Kindness of South Sea Islanders to Il
Shipwrecked Grew.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 7.-Advices from
Sydney, N.S.W.. say: That the natives of the
Bismarck Archipelago are becoming civil
lied is evident from the story of Captain
Stallio, of the wrecked American schooner
Eudora, who has reached port, The vessel
was totally lost at Gerrit Denys Island. She
was recruiting labor off the island when
the wind suddenly died away, and a
strong current swept her ashore, the
heavy sea rolling in sealing her fate. On
board the vessel were five Europeanq and
eight natives, forming the crew. together
with twenty native recruits for the Rahone
plantation. and they were reluctantly com.
pelled to abandon the wreck and proceed
ashore. Immediately the vessel struck the
natives of the island made their appearance
on the cliffs overhead, armed to the teeth,
and rs there was something of q hostile
demonstration the shpwrecked people ex-
pected lively time of it on landing. In
this. however. they were mistaken, for al
though the savages did actually swarm
down to the wreck and carried on some
petty thieving not one of the csstaways was
molested. On tho contrary, the chief of
the village showed the shipwrecked people
every Kindness, and as a proof of the good
behayior of his tribe offered himself as
hostage. The result of this kindly recep-
ton was that the whole of this vessels
trade was saved. together with fourteen
tons out OF sixteen tons of copra, which
formed tho cargo. Some sails, ropes and
blocks were also saved from the wreck
Three days after the wreck Capt. Stallio,
having had the whole of the people from
ths ship comfortably accommodated in
tents ashore. started in an open boat for
Ralune. New Britain, distant 200 miles. He
WAS accompanied bv sailor named Larsen
and eight natives. The trip though a
perilous one. was snfely accomplished in
six days; and Mrs. Forsyth, the owner of
the Eudora, Immediately chartered the
schooner Senta at the cost of t1Oo, and had
the shipwrecked castaways brought to New
Britain. The passages of the European
sailors were afterwards paid to uonR Kon,,
and they left for that port in the schooner
Zoe. The Eudora when last seen was
hopeless wreck.
