BUILDING STEAMSHIPS
Harlan 4 HOIlingsworth, the Great
ShipbuildIng Concern, Turning
Them Out RAPIDLY.

Wilmington's great shipbuilding con-
cern, the Harlan & Hollingsworth Com
pany, presents an enivened scene these
days.
Southern companies have for many
years furnished lots of work for this con-
cern and continue to do so.
After the launch of the steamship T.
S. Morgan at the shipyards of the Har-
Ian & Hollingsworth Company, Tuesday
morning, men were at once employed in
the work of making ready for steamship
No. II, for the Merchants and Miners
Transportation Co., of Baltimore. This
is the third vessel ordered from the
local builders by this company within a
short period. One of the vessels is the
Juniata, recently completed and now in
service between Boston, Providence,
Baltimore, Norfolk, Savannah and New
port News The second is the one now
in frame and known as No. 10.
The statement has been made that
the steamers now under way are similar
to the Juniata, in fact, exact duplicates
but it is not true. Nos. 10 and II are
different in many respects. The frames
of the other vessels are of angle steel
while those of Nos. 10 and II are o
channel steel. much different in that 8
greater tensile strength is developed.
The vessels will be completed as fol
lows: No. 10, April lst, and No. II June
10th, 1899.
1t is the intention of the builders tha
the new vessels will show greater speed
than any vessels built by the Harlan !

Girls" Mascagni's new opera, was
produced last week. Iris, the heroine, Is
a Japanese maiden, who is the only
support and comfort of her blind father,
with whom she dwells. She is abducted

his mistress, but soon firing OF her leaves
her imprisoned in greenhouse. y
Her father entering the place by accident
recognizes her voice and, thinking that
she had left him to follow this life OF
degradation, curses her. In the last act,
broken-hearted and despairing she

Advertising must be done as sensibly
and carefully as any other part Of a
business. Nothing is more disappont-

The WHY and Wherefore.

The Graphic asks in a political
catechism some questi MS OF repuoil'
cans which we will answer:
Q. "Why did they agsin nominate
Mccarthy and White for aldermen
when the people said at the last cleo
ton that they did not want these
men?'
Ans. The people elected Mr.. Nc
Carthy and perhaps elected Mr.. White
Parties now members of the city gov
eminent registered lot of men who
were not voters Kept tbei~ certificates
and voted other men in their places
who were not voters, thereby defeat'n
the will of the people in a mayor and
at least one alderman. For their
nefarious work they we're rewarded oy
appointments by the people they put
in Office illegally.
Q. Why did the republicans put Del
Buono on the ticket?
Ans. Because the nominee OF their
convention declined AID Mr.. Del Buo'
no after announcing as an 1ndepeno-
ept candidate was consiG cred good
man to fill the vacancy.
.. "Why did Del Buono decide to
run for alderman after declaring every
where, publicly and privately, THAI ne
could not afford to run that it would
cost him too much and that 1t would
hurt his business?'
Ans. What Mr.. Del BuOno said
was in reference to running on the
ticket with the gang" He kne"
their methods and Cou' d not conscien-
tiously stay 10 their company any
longer.
o. Does tho First National bank
bank want the cash?
Ans. 1t is not likely they would o6-
ject to it We have never seen bank
refuse good deposit.
Oues.-Does the State Natioral bank
want it very bad?
Ans-We think SO. If not it will be
the first time in the history Of the na-
ton, that the cold man" did not want
everything in sight We answer EN-
phatically, Yes.
Oues.-Well, didn't Treasurer Fas-
sett try dividing the funds in order to
satisfy the clamors of the pol ticians:
Ans. Yes, the democratic pollti-
clans who were afraid that if the de-
po-its were not to be divided they could
not win out, go a resolution tn that ef-
feet was passed in the democr attic COZ
ventiOn.
Q. Do the people believe Mr.. Fas-
sstt is dishonest?
Ans No, but they believe four times
is enough.
Oues.-Well, Dillon isn't ell of it af-
ter all, is he?
Ans.-No but he is part of it and
represents part that the "orgeu" OF
the s'boss' takes delight in villifying.
Oues.-Are the democrats going TO
win?

How Grandpa Boiled the Eggs

"But isn't it too windy to build fire

"Not joke ct all, said grandp pa,
"Come out and see. And bring the
eggs" he added, land a can with a
tight cover"
When a few minutes after, grandpa
and Edith went out in the back yard
grandpa was putting some fresh lime
into an old pail.
He took the can of eggs they
brought, and filled it nearly full of
water. Their, fitting the lid on care
fully, he set it in a hollow place he
made in the lime. Edith watched him
curiouely.
"Will the lime burn?' she .aske d.
"Shall I bring the matrhes?"

Nov know you are joking"
"Wait a moment" said grandpa,
'and you'll see."
He poured in the water, and put
board over the pail.
''Oh." erie d Edith, when in very
short time it began TO bubble and
steam as if hot fire were burning
under the pail. Ard sob" she cried
q great deal louder, when white,
creamy mass came pouring over the top
and down the sides of the pail.
Il did not last long. 10 six minutes
the bubblipg had almost stopped. So
grandpa took long iron d'pper, and
gently lifted out the can, all coated
with the lime.
He rinsed it off. then opened it, and
took out the nice white eggs: aud,
when they broke them at lunch, they
found them cooked exactly right
