THE MAN WHO TRIED RJTT FAJJED

A gentleman we'll known 10 the readers
OF tho REPUBLICAN, purchased IA new film
for his Wclsbach burner, and after res
ctlvlng instructions how to put it on, TOOK
the epurchase home and after lifting tho
trail object out Of the pasteboard box in
which it Is placed when put on sale, un der
took to put it in place on tho little no ok,
which his burners is provided with. Ho
tried the best he knew how to put the
pesky thing Oh, when zip went hole in
1t, how he never understood, but the hole
wa, there all the same. He then took the
glob,, fixtures and all down and placed
them on the dining room table and
thought sure this time he had cveryth ing
in good shape for a successful tcrmination
OF his trials and vexations, but alas he
ieckoned without his host, for this time
the THU piece OF cord by which the film
should hang suspended inside the globe
gave way and the rent in 1t became larger
tEan ever, and in fact went all to pieces.
Throwing the finn into tho coal bucket
In the Kitchen the gentleman vowed tho
next ono he had put on William Lawton
would have to ,ond one of his men out to
perform the mngic trick for he was blessed
If he would Try any more such film Aam
games 1t Is nearly as bad ts trying to
pick up IL particle of quick silver when it
has dropped on piece OF paper. II you
don't think putting on q fin on Welsh.
baca burner is anything but snap, just
try it yourself, il you don't believe this
gentleman experience.
THE MILL STILL RUNNING.
Down in Piedmont. Virginia, Is located
a large paper and pulp mill operated by
Mr.. William Luke and his three sons. The
mill gives employment to some five hum
dred opera ives and pays out some twenty
five thousand dollars a month in wages,
haSi1ps Soma teu M tIftaor, thnpaan6 dol
lars a month Ill freight alone,
The corporation has invested in their
plant a million and a half Of capital and
have @hesn doing y paying business ever
since the mills have been started Tho
county Of Piedmont is now fighting tho
company claiming that the wafer VI the
stream from which the mill Is driven and
intO which runs the refuse matter from
The mill have polluted the stream. Tho
company have employed five OF the best
legal talent Of Maryland and Virginia to
light the case In the court. The trial hav-
ing gone against the company, IN appeal
has been takon and il not granted the
case will be carried to the court of errors
and appeals. It'll strange why the peo-
pie of that vicinity want to try aud de-
stroy such an industry that brings thous-
ands Of dollars yearly into their midst as
well as giving employment to several
hundred persons thereby enabling them
to earn livelihood at good wages
The Messrs Lukes are too well known
men 10 do anything topollute stream of
wafer or 1njure amy person or persons.
The whole trial appears to be piece of
spite work by some unprirciplcd person,
who was over jealous in trying to protect
the stream into which their refuse from
their paper mills empties. Tho stream
was condemned long befote the Piedmont |
mills were erected or operated.

NO sOUNDER BANKS IN THE COUNTRY.

Allhnus several bank official, in our
city have gone wrong ut ditfurcut times,
there has never yet been one of our banks
known to close its doors. The detaultinp
cashiers have cutquite Il hole in the banks
surplus, but never has there been one of
them wrecked. Few cities of the sizc of
Wilmington, which now contains seventy
thousand Inhabitants, can show as good
balance sheet Us our banks Several of
tho banks have had hard struggle 10
keep ailoat owing to the sudden liking
the cashiers took o the funds of the banks
of which they were the sworn and trusted
officers.
| Amongst the number of banks that have
been hit years ago are the Wilmington
and Brandywine, the First National.
which was formerly the Mechanics bank,
the Farmers and tho Union. which is
every bank in the city except the Delaware
and the Central banks.
The names Of tho dofaulting cashiers
| were S. Bidllc Joseph Spear Joseph VOL.
laston, Joseph Heston, Joseph Day, Peter
Il. Smith and Evan Rice.
The stock in these banks are selling to.

bank of DelaVlre 5000, par value 500:

Union National bank, S75. par value S25
Central National bank, $50. par value,
Sl00; Farmers Bank. $6i, par value, $50;

Although none Of the banks but the
bank of Delaware Is still, selling ut any
thing like good premium the Others ars
making money and it will be only a few
years until they sell fortyice what they
are selling for to day. We should like TO 20
on record as to the future value of their
bank stocks. The Mechanics bunls was
started by j. Il. Heald and j L. Deyoe at
the corner whcreW. B. Sharp & Company's
store Is located and which was afterward
merged into the First National bank.

commanded the attention of q hundred
people. He was "A sample of that charac-

Nashville, Jan. 29.-The Democratic
legislative senatorial caucus met again
last night and balloted 10 times with
out making a nomination. The last
