Colored Workman Repaired Wrong House and Collected His, Money. It was told on the streets yester day -,how one of Wilmington's most prominent citizens lost $100 a few days ago. According to the report it occur red in this way: The citizen had a tenement house in need of repairs preparatory to occupancy by a person to whom it had been rented. A color ed workman was employed and sent to do the necessary work. A few days ago the negro appeared at the place of business of his employer stating that he had completed the work at a cost of approximately $100. The cit izen had-the utmost confidence in the workman and paid over the amount without going to see for himself that the work had been done. A day or two later another well 'known citizen of the city went to the place of business of the man who had the work done and tendered to "him sincere thank3 for his generosity in having hrs sis ter s house repaired, speaking of the act as a premature Christmas gift. The citizen who -had just a day or two ago paid out the money to the workman did not understand. His (ball- er men expiainea tnat a nouse D9 longing to his sister had recently un- , dergone considerable repairs without. tier knowledge or consent and that lie had just learned that the citizen he was then addressing had employed a man to do tJie work and paid for it. The man whose house needed repair ing then realized that the negro had made a mistake and repaired the wrung nouse. so me citizen is out approximately $100 and another work man will be given a job. The house that was repaired really needed no repairs, or at least no repairs were contemplated, hence the person who paid out the money will have to stand the loss, according to the report on the street. PROMINENT VISITORS HERE. Ex-Governor John G. Brady, of Alas ka; Mr. Berry and Mr. Neill. A party of distinguished visitors, in cluding ex-Governor John U. Brady of Alaska; Mr. Albert Berry, of Fair banks, Alaska,, and Mr. R. L. Neill. the celebrated cotton statistician of New York, were guests in the city yesterday, visiting this city in a pros pecting tour through the South, the latter gathering information as to the cotton crop and the distinguished gen tlemen from Alaska looking into gen eral development in this section. Mr. Neill, while here, called t the offices of Messrs. Alex. Sprunt & Son and in the afternoon with the other distin' guished visitors were guests of ex Mayor William E. Springer for an au tomobile drive through East Wilming ton during which they were greatly Interested in the remarkably fine cot ton and other crops that are being raised'there. Ex-fiovernor Brady Is a gentleman of prepossessing appearance and talks nterestingly of Aiasna. tie is a na tive of New York City and a gradu ate of Yale. He was appointed oov ernor of Alaska in July. 1897, by the lamented President McKinley ana served a term of four years during which he became thoroughly conver sant with the possession and is enthu siastic in the outlook for its ultimate greater development.

Tonight one of. the brightest and merriest musical comedy hits of the past two seasons, "The Newlyweds and Their Baby," comes to the Acad erhy. No musical show, in which are appearing several stars, including Master Rosen, who was first seen in Wilmington in . "Buster Brown," and the Countess Olga Von Hartzfelt, a favorite in this city, is being given a massive scenic production. Th9 com pany numbers over sixty. Seats on sale yesterday at Plummer's and al ready indications p6int to a packed house. . "The Newlyweds" played Durham Monday night , and the press of that city was lavish in praise of the swell attraction. The Durham Sun pays it big ' tribute and . declares that above all it is a clean show. But here is The Sun's criticism on the perform ance: . ". The Newlyweds and Their Baby playetfcat the Academy last night to a very good house. The sho'w was one Urges Democrats to Disregard Nomi nation of Smith "Rule of Ruin." Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 21. to disregard the nomination of Hoke Smith for Governor on the ground that Demo crats are not bound by the primary which chose him, because of the meta o:ls by which the primary was conduct, ed, was the advice of Thomas E. Vr- son, once populist candidate for the Presidency, in a speech at a mass meeting called by hiraseli nere 10 night. He urjred Democrats to vote for Governor Joseph M. Brown for another term, although Brown is not nominee, declaring that voters are free to treat the Smith nomination as null and void. ' What Watson called "bossism" and the alleged use of "money and whis key in elections and the securing o nominations by fraud and deceptions,' were the reasons he gave for insurg Ing against the regular Democratic nominee. Watson referred to Smith's statement of $17,500 campaign ex penses, declaring that this did not cover more than half of -the total ex penses from other sources. He object ed to the use of so much money in campaigns as a dangerous tendency. He claimed that in the nominating convention the representatives of 93, 000 Democrats, who voted in the pri maries for Brown were "reduced to silende" by. the convention rules; and that then the representatives ot the 97,000 who voted for Smith "were sub dued by those new rules into a state of speechless imbecility." The uproar which cut short the pre vious speech here. Watson chartred was instigated by what he called the "Rule or Ruin" clique which dominat ed the nominating convention. Speak ing further of this interruption Wat son said: "Although no such Idea was in mv mind at the time, I Have been firm ly convinced by subsequent develop ments that some of the rioters ha J assassination in mind." "The situation in Georgia bears ri striking resemblance to that which existed in Tennessee just before Car- maoic was killed." X Watson charged that vote bartering existed in the highest legislative of fices of the country. He predicted that unless "this spirit of lawlessness" rs checked, "our wives and daughters win ce subject to insult wherever taey appear alone on a side street." He advocated remodeling the Na- f 1 Annl T"- . -If. . ...wucii Licuiocraiic tjonvenuon so as to give full renresentalinn tn thnca pleasing than her other performances She is musical, graceful and pretty, a combination that takes in musical comedy. "The muBic was catchy and well executed. The costumes 'were all that the advance notices said they would the, the chorus was composed of about as good lookipg and musical bunch of girls as have ever appeared on the Durham' stage and the staging was excellent. And above all the performance was clean, not a single dirty suggestion being made during the two long acts." DixoR's New Play. Norfolk, Va., Sept. 21. TtTOmas Dix- on's recent prediction that hii latest play, "The Sins of the Father," would be his greatest dramatic effort was verified by its production for the first time on any stage in the Academy of Music tonight, Every seat in the im mense auditorium was sold out several hours before the rise of the curtain. It was estimated that at least 8,000 persons were turned away. Ticket speculators reaped a rich harvest, they placed their premiums as high as $3 a seat and anxious purchasers were eager to comply with their de mands. In "The Sins of theFather", Mr. Dixon has sounded a new" note on the race problem which will be echoed for many years to come. , 'ionight's big audience was thrilled as an audi ence has never been thrilled before in the history of Norfolk. As the play unfolded itself the auditors gripped their seats and at the conclusion of each act applause was most enthusi astic and long continued. Mr. Dixon has built his theme on the evils re sulting from the intermineling of the black and white races. The heroine is suspected of having the negro taint in her veins anl the - complications that ensue are woven into a story of tremendous strength and intensity. Interspersed with the liveliest variety ot dnrkey comedy, wherever it is pro-, duced it is certain to create a sensa tion equal if not excedeing the now historic "Clansman." In a speech to night at the conclusion of the second act, Mr. Dixon expressed his confi dence in the success of the appeal con tained in his new play to the manhood and womanhood of th" South. He had endeavored in "The Sins of the Fath er" to point out the greatest menace ! to th? life of the Republic. The les N ! son in the play, he said, he had learn I ed from his own mother and he want ed to convey this message to every home in his native Soyth. In an inter view Mr. Dixon announced his inten tion to make the Southern trip wita his company, which includes several Leo Hays, Jimmia Rosen ana coun- , , .. ., . ,n ,;f ..v , cess?ry to curtail the tour to permit tess Olga Von artzteiat, witn tne ; an early presentation in New York.

Porter Charlton, the young man. charged with having murdered his wife and thrown the bp-dy in Lake Como, ap pears, before Judge Blair, in Court of Oyerahd Terminer in Jersey City, Wednesday his attorneys will formal ly move for the dismissal of the case on the ground that the Italian gov ernment has made no formal demand for him. The treaty expressly provides that no citizen of the United States shall be returned to Italy for trial without a -formal demand on the State De partment by an authorized officer of the Italian government. This demand, they are convinced, has never been made. Inquiries at the State Department for the past six weeks have produced only evasive replies. If the demand has not been made, Charlton is prac tically a free man, for the treaty also provided that the papers shall be filed with the State Department within 40 days after the date of the arrest. The attorneys say that the State Department has committed several blunders, and that through these blun ders the Italian government will try try to extradite Charlton, ignoring cer tain importane provisions of the inter national treaty. of the best musical comedies that has been put on here and the universal sentiment of the play goers was fav orable. "Jimmy Rosen, the midget, who haa pleased Durham before was tire baby in the cast and also played the part of-Major Not Much. In both charac ter, he pleased ' and from his first entrance on the stage kept the house in a continual roar. Few better dia lect men have 'played here than Mr. George P. Murchey, the waiter.
