Mar shall is a former citizen of Wilming ton,' who will be remembered by many of our citizens. He was in the city to-day and gave us the pleasure of a call. i The festival at Brooklyn Hall last night, by the Ladies' Aid Society, for the benefit of Brooklyn Baptist Church was largely attended and was both -a social and a financial success. We are glad to note the fact and to know that the churcii is in a prosperous condition. v Personal. Mr. A. Ii. Paddison, of Burgaw, is in the city to-day. Mr. M. M.,Katz has gone to Golds boro to attend the meeting of the Directors of the Insane Asylum, to be held there to-day, 'as has also Dr. S. S. Satehwell, of Rocky Point. We were pleased to receive a visit to-day from Mr. Mack Davis, Busi ness Manager of "The Brook," who is in the city for the purpose of making arrangements for the ap pearance of his., company here to morrow night. s The Opera II on Re. The attraction at the Opera House to-morrow night will be a musical and laughable - extravaganza enti tled "The; Brook," which will be presented by the Marion Fleming Combination. There is but little pretentions to plot in the piece, it being merely the jollities, oddities arid fun of a lively picnic party, In speaking of the play one of our ex changes says: Journalism has sometimes occa sion to lament, with reference to the stage, that the ministry of mirth is wantonly allied to the ministry of vulgarity and vice, in this in fstAnee the welcome demonstration id nfTrMlif1 that merriment ean be ? lifTnsefl hv the exercise of talent 1 and the operation of animaL spirits, directed upon a perfectly pure sub ject, and conducted with , equal re finement and vigor. ; - v , .

Robeson county, was destroyed by fire last Tuesday afternoon. The cause of the fire is unknown. There was insurance on the property to the amount of $1,200 in the Liver pool & London & Globe Insurance f Company, represented in this" citv by Messrs. Smith & Boatwright. City" Court. There was a small docket for the Mayor's consideration this morning and it was disposed ot in the follow ing order: One person, whose name We sup press at her especial request, was charged with keeping her Jbar open on Sunday last. The evidence was conclusive of her guilt, and she was fined $20 and costs for the offense. From this judgment the defendant appealed, when she was required to give a justified bond in the sum of $100 to prosecute the appeal. Michael Logan, hailing from Alex andria, Va., applied for lodgings. He claimed to be a house and sign painter and was seeking work. He was granted until 3 o'clock this afternoon to either obtain employ ment or leave the city. Harry Kentz, of Petersburg, Va., and John Smith, of England, were foot tourists who had no visible means of support and they were furnished with an escort outside the city limits. ' The Jahrmorkt. i The "Jahrmarkt", gotten up by the ladies of St. Paul's Lutheran Church was opened at the City; Hall last night, and was attended bya large throng of our citizens, who were de lighted with what they saw and heard. There were booths and ta- bles representing nearly, all the na tions of Europe and attended by fair damsels attired in the costumes of the country they represented. The hall was elegantly decorated and the scene was a beautiful living pan orama, exhibiting kaleidescopic pic tures which were very . attractive. There was a museum in which many curiosities were on exhibition among which was a pulpit chair 120 years old that was used in the first Ger man Moravian Church in Salem, N. C. This was contributed by Mr. F W. Foster, whose wife's ancestors were of the Moravian branch of the Lutheran Church. Mr. Foster has also loaned the "Jahrmakt" a spin ning wheel more than 100 years old, which is in quite a good state of preservation, - an Indian bow and arrow and quite a number of other articles of historic interest. Excel lent contributions were also made by Miss Amy Bradley, Mrs. L. Han sen, Mrs. Win. Doscher. Mrs. C. Schulken, Mrs. H. Glameyer, Mrs. A. Deumelandt, Miss Kate Bremer, Messrs. H. Kure, Win. Neistlie, F. W. Ortmann, Geo. Tienken and by Drs. G. M- Ellis and F. C. Miller. Even Sain Lee, the Chinese laundry man, contributed a complete Chi nese costume. Qur space will not permit us to enumerate all the curious, interest ing and historic articles that were on exhibition and for sale, and we must content ourselves with saying that(the hall was full of them. There was beauty and attractiveness in every direction. The Germania Cornet Band were present and en livened the occasion by playing some of their best selections. The 4Jahrmarkt" will be open again to- night,' and there is every indication that the attendance will be as large as it was last -night. The ladies, under whose skilful management the entertainment was gotten up, are to be congratulated upon the success which has thus far crowned their efforts. - Finest shoes for ladies wear in the city at French &r Sons." t : " Indications.

E. ; Church, South; for' the year 1887, will be notable and sadly remembered on account of thefatal- hnorseless hand of death, and im mediately after the adjournment, while the "delegates were returning lo their homes after a Conference of unusual interest and benefit to the M. E.; Church, Capt. William M. Parker, of this city, was attacked and in a few short hours his spirit had taken flight to the God who gave it. , Thus suddenly and unex pectedly a distinguished and learned divine, and one of the most promi nent and useful laymen of the M. E. Church South were taken away, to live hereafter only in the memory of the large circle by whom they were beloved. In the death of Capt. Parker, Grace M. E. Church of this city loses one of its best and most useful members and the Sunday School connected with the church, and of which he had been Superin tendent for many years, will suffer a great loss. Not only will his loss be keenlv felt in the church and Sunday School, but in the business and social world he .will be greatly missed. Capt.Parker was a 'native of Ham burg, Conn., antl was 51) years of age at the time of' his death. He came to'North Carolina in 1850 and settled at Ashboro. Subsequently he removed to Fayetteville, where he was emplojred as a clerk by the late Mr. Win. R. Utley, a commis sion merchant at that place. At the commencement of the war he was one of the first to volunteer and served as a private in the Fayette ville Light Infantry of the First (Bethel rejgiment until it was mus tered out of service. During the latter part of the war he had charge of the State salt works on the coast below Wilmington. At the close of the war Capt. Parker engaged in business in this city with Mr. A. H. Neff, and in 1873 entered into part nership with Mr." James H. Taylor in the hardware business, in which he was engaged at the time of his death. - Capt Parker was a man of strict integrity and honesty and in social life, while entirely unobtrusive and modest, was a most agreeable com panion with af und of quiet humor which was always pleasant and never offensive. Truly a good man has departed. No arrangements will be made for the obsequies until the arrival of the remains which will be on to-night's train. The Aliasing Men. But little hope, if any,is now en tertained as to the three lost young men. Messrs. Branch,- Keeter and Barnitz,fr'oin this city, who were lost in Currituek Sound during the storm of last Thursday night. Mr. George Braneh has returned to the city but we have not yet been abie to see him. , It is rumored that the boat in which the young men were return ing to the ship has been found, and that Mr. Keeter's body was found in it, but this . appears to bo J as yet mere rumor. Some reliable particu lars may possibly be received here to-morrow. - A Gallant Fireman. Mr. M. Rathjen, who has recently served as Foreman of Howard Re lief Fire Engine Co. No. 1, hasCeen for fourteen consecutive years a member of the company, for the latter eight years of which he has served as an officer. He could have been reelected as Foreman, but de clined to serve another term and Mr. M. G. Tienken was chosen for the position. , Mr.Hathjen has been noted as "one of the most gallant of the many gallant firemen of the old and staunch Howard Relief and re tired from the office" he had filled with so much credit, both - to him self and his company, amid the well earned plaudits of his fellow fire men. On his retirement he present ed the company with a handsome rug, which has been placed in the engine hall. : See the Othello Range at Jacobi's Hdw. Deoot.

On motion it was ordered that the same be approved and endorsed, by the Board and that Mr. B. F.

This was concurred in. by execu tive council of the Chamber of Com merce and Mr. Win. Calder was ap pointed a committee to act with Mr. B. F. Hail. ' School Books and.
