Grand Army Celebration To-Day.

Grand Army Day Will he celebrated to-day
bya big reunion and picnic at Rock Point,

deficit. The following appoint tments have

A SLIGHT REDUCTION.

Job Printers Delay Fixing Up Their Scale
for Three Months.
The job printers scale has been settled
after repeated postponements, reaching
back three months. The old scale provided
that the journeymen should receive SIS O5
week. When the time came this year to
consider new scale the men expressed con-
siderable fear that trouble would occur if an
advance was asked, although all wanted
more pay for ten hours work.
The matter was laid over from one meet
ing to the next until yesterday, when the
scale was reduced to $l6 a week even 1t is
expected that the employers will sign the
scale without any discussion.

CAPTAIN HEIBER N0NPLUssED.
A Woman Puts an Astonishingly Naive
Query Right at Him.

Query Right at Him.
Captain Heiber, the marriage license
clerk, was astounded yesterday by an odd
inquiry. A woman aged about "a years, ac-
companied by three young men, entered his
Office much excited. The visitors were evil
IDENTIFY Slavs. The young woman stated that
man, whose name she would not give, had
taken out license for his marriage with
her. She, however, had changed her mind,
did not want to marry him, because, she
said, pointing to one of her male compan-
ion, 81 like this man better. She then stated
that the man who had taken out the license
had insisted on her marrying him. He said
that he would release her if she paid him
$50 but unless she paid him that sum he
would compel her to marry him. She
offered to compromise by paying him $20
but he would not accept. What she now
wanted to know was could he make her
marry him.
Captain Heiber informed her that he could
not. Upon this she appeared delighted and
said that If she had married him she would
not have lived with him, because she liked
the man with her better. The parties all
appeared delighted to learn the fact that
there was no compulsion about matrimony.
They refused to give their names, but said
they would come back in week for another
license.

SUING TWO CITIES.
Edward Van Orden Wants Neat Sum
From Both Corporations.

Edward Van Orden yesterday entered suits
in the United States Circuit Court against
the cities of Pittsburg and Allegheny for
damages for the infringement of a patent.
Tie suits are similar to those entered Friday
by the owner of the patent for the infringe
ment of the patent on a fresh water heater
for steam fire engines.

first suits, but now brinrs separate suits on
his own account. Van Orden states that the
patent has been sustained by the New York

it. He asks for $37, 254 damages against Pitts

= Mrs. Paul Darr, of Spring Garden avenue
Allegheny, who was accused by her neigh

that her husband did it in joke, not really
meaning to wet them.

NOTHING OF THE KIND.
/ MarbletOn, n. Y, dispatch read

\ MarbletOn, n. =, dispatch reads:
Great indignation has been caused by
the elopement and marriage of MISS
MARY SCHALL, the daughter Of one of
the Wealthiest farmers in the neighbour
hood, with a colored man i'll her fathers
employ. The young lady, who has just
entered on her 18th year, was accom-
plished and a belle of the neighborhood.
The man with whom she eloped is a full
blooded negro Of forbidding appearance.
Commenting upon the above the Nor
folk Virginian says:
The dispatch shows how fanatics who
have sown the wind reap the whirlwind.
Well, we take it that the dispatch
shows nothing Of the kind. In the first
place, if the girl was but eighteen years
old, the negro question at the north had
been settled fifteen years before the girl
was brought into the world. The father
could not have been a fanatic to a very
alarming extent on a subject which was
not before the people. No one at the
north ever maintained, in serious earn
e~stness, that the social status of the two
races was the same.
There are two distinct races-made by
the same Creator, but each one has it's
sphere, and no earnest person, either
black or white, ever urged social equality.
In his place the negro is all right, and
in his place the white man is all right.
Only a fool would maintain that the
races should intermingIe socially.
The case in point is only one of a
thousand which have happened both at
the north and south. Refined women
have eloped with burly, and brutal and
debased white men who happened to be
~coachmen. White men have left their
homes and gone with negro m
But such exhibitions of idiocy have no
relation to, nor connection with fana-
ticism.
Simply because a simpering, giggling,
idiotic girl becomes infatuated with a
colorcd man who is her fathers coach
man, and believes that she loves him
when she does not know what ails her,
Is no reason why a paper Of the Vir-
g~inian's supposed standing should throw
up lis hands and howl and strain a point
to emit its venom against the north.
Flesh and blood are queer things, and
since the days that MARCK ANTONY
threw away a world in his wild desire to
possess the dusky sorceress of the Nile,
history has not marvelled at the freaks
OF folly which have so many times dis
turOed society, ruined homes and broken
loving hearts.

Handsome and Able Newspapers.
Wilmington Messenger.

A gentleman at Asheville kindly sent
us a copy of the Chicago Herald the first
we have seen. 1t is, indeed, a very hand
some paper, and may be all that our es-
teemed contemporary, THE DURHAM
GLOBE, says it is. We cannot say hat it
surpasses all others. THE GLOBE quotes
the New York Morning Advertiser, a pa
per that does not visit the Messenger
office, and we cannot, therefore, judge
for ourselves as to the supreme excellence
claimed for it by our wide-awake con-
temporary. It's editor is the same trained
journalist, Mr.. J. A. Cockerill, who made
the New York World such a splendid
success. We would suppose he could
easily make any paper he might manage
strictly first. class. We notice in the arti-
Gle copied from it in THE GLOBE that the
editor is in doubt as to the handsomest
paper. He says:
We are a little undecided ourselves whether
Colonel McClure's Times. the Chicago Herald
or the Chicago Tribune is the handsomest
newspaper. They are all as beautiful as type
and white paper can make them. But we be-
lieve with THE RIA GLOBE that the Morn
ing Advertiser is 1.-The best newspaper in
America and the esteemed GLOBE is itself a
good second"
But for its abominable politics we doubt
if there is any really greater paper in this
country than the New York Tribune. In
size, in Typography, in appearance, in all
around ability and careful editing it is a
remarkable paper. Its foreign CORES
pondence is perhaps superior to hat of
any other American newspaper, but see
ing but few papers we cannot speak ex
cathedra. The truth is, this country is
rich in very able, wide awake, admirably
edited newspapers. We could name a
dozen in the North that are indeed mar
wells of journalistic tact, industry and
ability, and are as news puryeyors with
out any rivals in any land, we take it.
They certainly eclipse the leading En-
glish papers we have seen in the last
named particular. The New York papers
Tribune, Times, Sun, Evening Post,
Herald, World, Morning Advertiser and
Recorder are all papers of marked ex-
c~ellence and with special merits IN GER
tain given lines. Each has an individ-
uality of it's own.
In the South there are some papers of
excellent ability and very live and enter
prising, all things considered. But we
may not particularize.

ON TO

The inter-states exposition, soon to be
on at Raleigh, is attracting general atten-
ton. All the leading papers are talking
for it. Those in charge are doing the
best they can to see that nothing which
would tend to make the exposition a sue
cess is left undone, and the leading. men
throughout the southern states are giving
individual aid which will help create gen
eralinterest. The Wilmington Messenger
wants the cry con to Raleigh to resound
throughout the southland. DIR. KINGS
says:
Now that really looks like business.
1t is the one good plan to have North
Carolinians at Raleigh in great numbers.
Do not fail to see the great show. Do
not let the opportunity go by without
putting in a few days at the most impOr-
tant exhibition Of products ever seen
within the borders Of the cold North
State"
Let everybody go-the girls and the
boys as we'll as the beaux and the sweet
hearts and let all the mothers and fathers
be there to look after the children and
see what is to be seen.
Let the slogan be now, "Let us on to
Raleigh" Make all your arrangements
for the pleasant and profitable trip. Be-
gin now. Get ready and on to Raleigh.
And this should be the cry,
Durham citizens should hold a mass
meeting and help Durham manufacturers
make a display. Durham can open the
eyes of the world. Our city council al
we'll afford to make a liberal appropria-
ton, and the county commissioners can
set aside some county funds for the same
purpose. Let the watch word: "On to
Raleigh be repeated by every true citi-
zen of the state.
Let North Carolina do her share.

Saturday evening The Globe will
print a thrilling var story, Sin the
Last Ditch" It is of a gallant
North Carolina boy who seized the
cOlOrs under which he and his com
rades had fought so fiercely at Fort
Gregg, dashed past the swarm Of as
sailants on the parapet, and, with
the flag floating defantly, ran at the
top of his speed back to the Confed-
crate main line, where he was re-
ceived with wild cheers. The Con-
federates fought desperately in this
last ditch and deferred the day of
Lees surrender. The article will be
appropriately illustrated-and the
old soldiers will appreciate it., as
will also those who admire deeds Of
daring.
