FROM THE ORIENT.
The City of Rio de Janeiro Arrives
From China-Sailing of the
Shenandoah.

The City of Rio de Janeiro arrived yes
terday morning twenty.three days from
Hong-Kong and fifteen from Yokohama.
She carried nine cabin, four Europeans,
eight Japanese and twenty-nine Chinese
in the steerage.
A small cargo of miscellaneous charac-
acter, including lot of Chinese toys and
curios intended for the holiday sale and
weighing 2672 tons was all she carried in
the way of freight. There was S21,0 in
the treasure hold.
The passage was good one but unevent-
full. Moderate westerly winds blew to the
meridian with fine weather. and then
light and variable winds were met that
lasted to port.
At the Mail Dock ali passengers were
landed who were permitted TO, and then
the steamers stem was swung out into The
stream so that nobody could get on or off.
This created some surprise at first, as it
was thought there was some important
reason for doing so. but it turned out TO
be done for the purpose of keeping the
Sunday crowd off until start had been

remained In her una prOacha6le pos ton
all day, and the Chinese on board who had
birds and dogs to sell used a great deal of
profanity, as he was all ready for a big
day. he put in his time walking between
his cages, which he had arranged to the
best advantage, and looking lOngingly at
the crowd on the wharf that he knew had
money he could get.
The work of unloading the cargo will
commence to-day.
The big ship Shenandoah, Captain
Murphy, put TO sea yesterday with large
cargo valued at about S15O,000. A fine
breeze was blowing from the northeast
and the shippers hopes were that he
would reach Liverpool in one hundred
days. Captain Murphy said nothing
about this until he was ready to start, as

Three Schoolboys Scare Residents

The residents on the San Bruno road

yesterday afternoon by hearing success
sion of sharp reports. The reports were
like those of rife. The police were COM

made. The firing was traced to an empty
lot and three small boys were discovered

and the third large navy revolver. The
boys were having great time shooting at
imaginary indians when the officers OF the
law swoOped down on them and placed
them behind the bars of the Seven teenih-

young culprits are Antoine Natri and Peter
and Richard Finochio. All three attend
school. but have lately been reading some

In the death of Mrs. Crews, Durham

showed itself in works and which made
her name a household word in the homes
Of the needy and distressed. Admired
for her wOmanly graces and loved fOI
her noble christian charities, Mrs. Crews
enjoyed the universal esteem of all who
knew her. There was no home too hum
be, no weather too severe for errands of
mercy where she believed that duty
called, and she will be greatly missed in
the church as we'll as in the home which
she had so long adorned
The deceased was born in Augusta, Ga,
bat after her marriage moved to North
Carolina and lived in Granville county
until about six years ago, when the family
came to Durham. Since her residence
here she has made many warm friends
AID her death Is the occasion of much
genuine sorrow. She was between 40
and - years Of age, and the victim of a
complication Of diseases which batfled
her physicians. Typhoid fever was the
last and fatal malady which carried her off

THE BLKINS-MAY AFFAIR,
Another side OF What seemed Yer
Strange story.

Another side OF What seemed d Very
Strange story.
Walter r. lllkins and wife yesterday
caused the arrest Of Philip May, janitor
at Pythian Castle, for battery, and May
mas also had them arrested on a similar
charge.
These ecounter-complants grew out Of
the affair that occurred at Ninth and l
streets on Monday night, as related in
the RECORD UNION yesterday, in which
connection May claimed that Elllins and
wife assaulted, beat and robbed him.
This story sounded very strange to
friends Of MIR. and Mrs. Elkins. who are
people of respectability and standing.
Ihe latter We're seen by reporter yes
terday and asked to give their version of
the affair.
Mr.. Elkins, who is a mechanic en-
pIoyed at the railroad shops, said that he
ana hls wife were taking a walk late on
Monday night in the vicinity Of the Plaza
TO get little fresh air, and at Ninth and
| streets Mrs. Elkins stopped to tasten a
button on her shoe. She was a little
SLOW about it, and he, who had walked
on a few steps, sung out good
humOredly, Come, get move ont"
Al that, he says, May came along and
grabbed Mrs. Elkins by the arm. He
hastened TO her relief, and May struck
hIm on the mouth. lie says he then
I turned in and gave the meddlesome
Janltor good drubbing. The latter re-
oargalned Tor, and then called for the
police.
Mrs. Elkins says that all she did was to
plead with May to 60 away ana let her
husband alone in response to which he
hlt her severe blow on The arm.
