Sol Bmlth Bnsaell In "The HlvaU" Thun- day Night Thursday evening, the 81st. will wit ness the appearance of the premier of American stars.JMr. Sol Smith Russell, who will present his latest and greatest success, "The Rivals." This play is meeting with unbounded approval by press and public, and is said to be one of Mr. Russell's greatest character Sol Smith Russell is justly pre 4 of his position on the American stage. Critics regard him as an artist, and that the public agree with them is evinced by the crowded houses which greet him in all his engagements throughout the country.

Mr. Russell is more than an actor. He is a man lof keen percep tions, limitless wit and genuine hu manity. One of the marked features about his humor, that few other come dians possess, is its refined and culti vated character. His pathos is equally true and affecting, and takes the audience with him quite as fully as his humor.

His popularity never wanes, but waxes stronger with advancing years, and those who remember him in youth are all the more attached to him in the maturity of his powers. Sale of reserved seats will take place Tuesday morning at Yates'; price $1.50, except for the first two and the last four rows of seats in the parquet, which will be one dollar each. This arrangement has been made with Mr. Russell, by special effort of the management. General admission, 75 cents.

THE STOLEN HORSE Poucd In Wimington and Becovered by the Owner The Thief JBaeaped. The horse stolen from the stable of Mr. W. F. Alexsnder, on Middle Sound as told in the Star was found yes terday by the owner in this city; but the thief a young negro man about twenty years of age had made his escape.

The thief with the horse came to Wil mington early Friday morning, and en deavored to sell the animal to Mr. Breckenridge, of the firm of Brecken-ridge Beery. Mr. Breckenridge suspecting that something was wrong questioned the young negro, who told a plausible story; that his father farmed at Rocky Point during the present year. making a two-horse crop there, but be coming dissatisfied had decided to sell out and.

move to Rocky Mount. That he had already sold one of the horses, and told bis son to carry the other horse to Wilmington and sell it, and take the train for Rocky Mount, and as he (the son) wanted to leave on the first train, be would sell the horse for twenty-five dollars. Mr. Breckinridge told the ne gro to put the horse in his lot, and went with him to see the lad's father who, the young negro said, was at a house in "Dross Neck;" but on the way to this place the negro gave Mr. Breckinridge the slip and bas not been seen since.

special Trains to maxton. Bpselal Traine From Wilmington Next Thursday and Friday Tare One Cent a Mile Each Way. Secretary Harker. of the Border Ex position ot the Cirohnas, informs the Star that the Seaboard Air Line will run special trains over the Carolina Cen tral to the Maxton Fair next Thursday and Friday. These trains will leave Wilmington in the early forenoon and leave Maxton on the return trip late in the afternoon, giving about six hours for visitors to the Fair each day.

Connection will be made with the At lantic Coast Line both ways. As the fare on these two special trains will be but one cent a mile each way, there should be a large crowd from Wil mington and all intermediate stations. The Fair at Maxton next week will un doubtedly be the best ever held there. Unusual efforts have been made by the management, and they have secured more exhibits and more features of inter est than ever before. Remember the days, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

October SOth and 81st and November 1st. Watch the Nnraea. Parents who permit nurses to take their children on the streets should be very careful. Yesterday a little child was left in a baby carriage near the "Merry-go-round." on Princess street, while the nurse went in to show her skill as an equestrienne. The child, becom ing alarmed, cried as if its.

heart would break, and a bystander, whose sympa thies were aroused by the cries of the child, went to the nurse and appealed to her to go to the child and take care of it. But she was' so charmed with her skill in riding the untamed wooden steeds that no entreaties could move After exhausting her supply of nickels she car ried the child home and no doubt satis fied the mother that the little one had heartily enjoyed its ride.

Fif teen hundred people saw the came. The white-and-blue was worn by hundreds of Carolinians new living in Georgia. Stephens, by a seventy-yard run, made touch-down in five minutes. Whitaker kicked goal -The game was hot from beginning to end. Georgia, by good rushing and heavy interferecce over tackles, took the ball within two yards of the goal; when North Carolina by a supreme effort, uphill, carried Georgia back ten yards.

Features of the game were ground- gaining by Stephens, Moore, Collins, Bacid. The right tackling of Butler, Stanley, Merritt, Gregory and Hurley was very creditable. White played splendid centre.

N. Oct. 26. The proceedings brought by H. L.

Dockery for possession of the Peniten tiary were taken up again, in the Supe rior Court this morning. The. various tables inside the bar railing are covered with law books. Each of the many counsel has a big pile. The trial so far has resulted in a wordy war among the lawyers on technicalities.

The prospects are that this will continue throughout the day. The defence is trying to prove that the act creating the new Board was passed after the directors were elected. "This morning Mr. T. R.

Purnell is on the stand. The jury is composed of countrymen entirely. Five are Populists, five Democrats and two are Republicans. Capt. W.

F. Drummond. the veteran conductor on the Seaboard Air Line, who has been ill some time, died last night at Jenkins' Bridge, Va. The funeral will occur in Norfolk Sunday. Mr.

Drummond was one of the veteran con ductors of the South, and was widely known. A general reorganization of the Southern Railway, it is said, will take place November 1st. H. F. Smith will be made general freight agent, with headquarters at J.

F. Drake, assistant freight agent, in Kich- mond; Fitzgerald, assistant agent, in Louisville, and Hudson Miller, assistant agent, in Atlanta. This news your cor respondent gets very straight. Other changes may occur. A 1 cent rate has been made for the Colored Fair.

It will be effective three days. The foot ball team of the Agricultural and Mechanical College which has been in Atlanta, is in Charlotte to day. The team will play the Charlotte eleven to day. The North Carolina Swine Breeders Association was permanently organized yesterday at noon. There was a good attendance at the meeting of well-known and successful hog raisers.

The officers are G. S. Watson, Biltmorc, President; J. F. Holeward.

Burlington, Secretary, and Prof. Frank E. Emory, Raleigh. Treasurer. This organization can do much to further the interests of swine breeders in this State.

On the thirteenth of November the annual meeting ot the stockholders of the Seaboard Roanoke Railroad will be held in Portsmouth. At the the annual election of officers will occur. The meeting will be of particular interest to all those residing on the Seaboard system. The fakirs and "Hoochey-Koocheys packed their "duds" yesterday and have shaken the air ground dust wnicn is a peculiar variety from their trilbies. A great many of them went to Maxton to do the Border States Fair, while others went to Atlanta.

Not a few returned to New York. The traffic of the Seaboard Air Line just now is greater than it ever was, both in the passenger and freight departments. Freight trains on the S. A. L.

road are being run in sections, while extra sleepers are attached to the vesti bule every day. A Seaboard man said yesterday that the company did not have engines enough to transport their trains. The gentleman remarked that the Seaboard had recently received thirteen new engines, but that they needed twenty-five to do the present rush of business. The vestibule has had eight sleepers attached to the regular train nearly every day this week. Some of the freight trains have passed here in three or four sections.

The Exposition has been a great play ing card for the railways. In fact, all of them are doing all the business they can. No better illustration of the pros perity of the people could be given. Yesterday a special train of ten coaches passed through the city from Atlanta en route to Norfolk. The train carried the Fourth Virginia Regiment and Norfolk Post Marine Band.

Special Star Telegram While big crowds were at the depot. fakirs robbed farmer Gilchrist of forty dollars. A lady and another man were also robbed. The Arena, of Boston, has arranged to send Tudge Clarke to Mexico to write a series of articles on Mexico, historical ly, its present condition, and the silver problem there. These articles will appear in January and be magnificently illustrated.

Judge Coble rules in the penitentiary contest case, that testimony to show the exact time the act was ratified is not admissible. This rules out Senator Dowd's testimony. The Judge has dismissed the jury, as only points ot law are involved. Congressman Settle is in the city. He says Fusion is a certainty.

The Populists, he says, cannot accomplish anything without it. As to the electoral ticket, he says there will be no division. FOOT BALL.
