The Proposed Line OF Steamers to PHI.
ade1uhfA.


The business men of Wilmington read
with interest the item in yesterdays
Messenger of the movement in Phila-
delphia to establish a line Of
between that city and Wilmington n
other southern ports. OF course, they
look with favor on the project, and
would be glad to see it carried out. The
successful continuance of the line
would depend on the amount of bust
ness furnished the steamers coming and
going.
RI. D. L. Gore, one OF our wholesale
grocers, stated to a Messenger reporter
yesteday that considerable business was
formerly lone by u merchants with
Philadelphia, and that while we trade
more or less with the Quaker city now,
a. line of steamers would tend to in
crease the transactions between the
two cities. Philadelphia would increase
her business with us. and we will no
doubt do a large lumber business with
that port and increase our shipments
of cotton, naval stores, etc.

The indicator, a widely circulated
insurance magazine published at New
Orleans, has the following in it's issue
of June 18th:
No report of the proceedings Of the
South Eastern Tariff Association at
Old Point Comfort, can be considered
complete that does not contain an
account of the speech of Joseph
Smith, Of Wilmington; and how ST.
George Kempson can pretend to have
furnished a complete repOrt when
no mention whatever is mad of that
memorable event, passes understand
ing.
The question was being discussed by
the convention as to whether anything
should be added to the rates in Ala
bama, on accoun of the new law i'm
posing the 25 per cent. penalty, with
which law we are all familiar. A reso-
luton had been offered that such addi-
ton to h rates should be made as the
executive committee might consider
adequate to recoup the companies from
the effects of the operation Of the law.
Many arguments pro M con had
been advanced, and the question hung,
as it were in a balance. Then up rose
Mr.. Joe. Smith, of Wilmington, and
after being recognized by the chair,
spoke somewhat as follows:
NJ Chairman am opposed to the
resolution, and I'll tell you why. 1t
seems to me the situation in Alabama
may be illustrated by the story of tina
little boy who ran away from the poor
house out here in Virginia. While
walking along the public road he was
met by a gentleman who had been in
strumental in getting the boy into that
institution.
The gentleman stopped and spoke
kindly to the lad, inquiring why he
had left the Door house. We'll, sir said
the boy, it's something like this: They
treated us aWful1y rough and we cut up
it, and just then the old pig died
and they made us ca the pig. Then
we cut up more and raised a bigger
row about the w a they treated us,
and the old COW died and they made US
eat the COW.
We still kept grumbling and fussing
about the treatment they CAV us.
when my granmother died. Then 1
ran away, for I vas afraid they'd make
me eat my grandmother if I stayed -"
And so it is. Mr.. Chairman, with the
insurance companies. The more they
cut up the worse they make it for them.
We have had the pig and the cow, and
I think we had better stop or we will
have to eat our grandmother next"
Mr.. Smith sat down amid roars of
laughter from all sides. The vote was
then taken and the resolution was
lost by a large majority.

Midnight Assault on q Woman.
June, 1897.

William Clemmons is a worthy col
pred man who lives in Brunswick coun-
ty, on the Fayetteville road, about six
miles from the city. On Wednesday
night, as it was warm in h house, he
took some OF the children and slept
in q little corn crib about fifty feet
away from the house. His wife and
her baby and her little Z ear old
daughter staid in h house. About
midnight some one entered the house,
and the first the woman knew or the
burglars presence was when n was
awakened from her sleep by a terrific
blow that stunned her. She got into
burglar grappled with her and in the
shuttle struck her again. Her little
girl ran to her assistance and the
brute severely choked her. They got
away from him and ran into the
woods, the woman not going to her
husband, fearing that the man might
follow her and kill her. She left the
burglar in the house and as the woods
were right at the door, h concluded
she would be safer to dodge among
the trees
Her husband slept s0lndly n knew
nothing Of the assault on his wife I'M
til daylight, when he got up and went
into the house, to find his wife n
child gone and the f1oor covered with
blood. The baby was asleep in the
bed. He searched for his wife and
found her badly injured and suffering
from many bruises and a deep cash
in the back of her head. She said the
man who assaulted her was a stout
built negro, burt she did not re cognize
him. 1t was discovered that the as
sault was made with an axe handle
thai was found in the house covered
with blood. The axe was kept inside
the house, and as it was loose on the
handle, it was supposed that it came
off when her assailant picked it UP to
strike her. Clemmons discovered thathe
la beer robbed of his clothing and a
small sum of money, and it is believed
that the motive of his wife's assailant
was robbery.
The injured woman was brought to
the city and DR.. T. r. Mask attended
to her wounds. She is 30 severely
hurt that she had to be kept in the
city.

There are several hundred teachers

The new department work is a sue
cess. OF course the work is not perfect
and at the first trial has not worked
without some hitches; but it is evident
ly on the right line. The difficulty in
the way is the fact that the commit
tee has made the programme too full,
and by working several departments at
the same hour, has scattered the teach
ers too much. All that is lacking to
make the work a grand success is to
hav only n department at work at
a time, and let the departments follow
each other regularly every half hour,
or three quarters Of an hour. The
teachers could then attend any or all

every class would be full and enthu-
siastic. The work done so far has been
admirable, and is a credit to the teach
ers and to the state.
So far as i { am a judge this work has
been equal to any summer work ] ever
saw or heard. It has been thorough
and intellectually Of a high order. AL
though by dividing the attendants the
classes are smaller than they should
be, yet the matter given has always
been we'll considered and has shown
that these teachers are able, thorough
and lip to date, without belonging to
the modern fast crowd.
No teacher should fail to be here next
week.
Any teacher can hear enough to keep
him in mental pabulum and then rest
o. DISCUSS it. While the mental pow
ers are thus occupied in the morning

recreation in the demonstrating,
fishing or surf bathing. And, best of

as anyone needs. ThOs Of brilliant
im~aginations can also be a~bundantly

lures and marvellous fish stories. Come
brethren and have a happy, good time.
1t was proposed today to have next
years session brought within a week,
but these teachers know a good thing
when they see and taste it. They
downed the motion. A week is not
quite enough for as good a thing as
this. Ten days will barely do.
