'Arrival mt Wilmington A Cordial Greeting by Hundred of Citizens. There was a large crowd assembled at the eld Union depot yesterdfty af ternoon to see the President and Mrs. Cleveland. The special train which conveyed the Presidential party ar rived at, 4.50 p. in., Mr. J. L. Rus sell being the conductor and J. J. Jen nings the engineer, of engine No. 34. As the train came in sight there were loud cheers from the people as sembled, and when it stopped, after redoubled cheers for the President, he appeared on the platform and de scended from the car. Mrs. Cleve land also appeared, with Secretary Whitney and wife and Col. Lamont. The crowd then formed into line, and all who were disposed had an oppor tunity of shaking hands with the President, and many availed them selves of it, Among the pleasant features of the occasion was the presentation of a basket of beautiful flowers and a bunch of violets to Mrs. Cleveland, by little Julia Nor ton Parsley, daughter of Mr. Wal ter Parsley and grand-daughter of Mr. D. MacRae. There was also an exquisite bouquet of camel i as presented by master Lonnie Souther land, and presentations of flowers by others whose names were not ascer tained. Mrs. Cleveland is a remark ably handsome woman, and made a very pleasant impression. She was becomingly attired in a garnet col ored cashmere dress, trimmed with braid, and wore pinned to her corsage a beautiful bouquet of pink hya cinths. In the car occupied by the party were seen many tropical fruits and bouquets which had been pre sented to the President and his wife at places along the route from "Flo rida. Among the officials of the Atlantic Coast Line present were . Messrs. H. Walters, T. M. Emerson and B. R. Dunn. Mr. R. Kenly, master of trans portation, came with the party from Charleston, and accompanied them to Weldon. The train only stopped about ten minutes, but even in this short time a most happy impression was made. and loud cheers given as the car sped on its way to Washington. Capt. W. L. Harlow took charge of the President's train, as conductor, with Mr. W. S. Taylor engineer. About two hundred ladies and gen tlemen wenfcout to see the President from the Front street depot in a coach furnished for their accommo dation by the railroad officials, and a party of about thirty ladies and gen tlemen were taken up to the Bluff on the steamer Navassa to meet the train at that point. AT MOUNT OLIVE. A telegram to the Star from Mr. I. W. Faison, says: "Fiv hundred persons shook hands with the Presi dent and greeted Mrs. Cleveland upon the arrival of the train at this place. It was a big day for Democrats and low tariff." A Faator' Six Vear'a Work Com pleted. Six year's services will be completed to-day by Rev. F. W. E. Peschau, the pastor of St. Paul's EvangelicaKLu theran Church. Since his advent in to our midst, all the Christian Churches have changed pastors. In these six years Rev. Mr. Peschau failed to hold services on account of sickness only a single time, and that was one Sunday morning, when he was too hoarse to speak. During these years the congregation and the Sunday School have made considera ble progress, and are now in a condi tion to grow still more. The congre gation has grown to be one of the strongest in the city, numbering 323 communicant members. Peace and harmony prevail in the Church and pastor and people are happily mated. It will be remembered the congrega tion by unanimous resolution re quested Rev. Mr. Peschau, to remain its pastor during the days of his na tural life. This we deem a compli ment to both pastor and people. Not every minister can remain in a field for years, and be Jhus honored by his people. Services appropriate to the occasion will be held in the Church to-day. in German at 11 a. m., andin English at 7.30 p. m. Also, in the Sabbath School at 3 p. m. The UallroadSaaacrlptlona. There seems to be more opposition to the railroad subscriptions than is generally supposed, and those who favor them will have to "mend their licks" if they would make sure of suc cess. The great advantage enjoyed by those who oppose subscription is the fact that they can, and generally will, Absent themselves from the polls, knowing that every vote not polled counts against subscription. Thus, they will avoid the annoyance of be ing subject, to the usual importunities of those who stand around the polls. There is reason to believe that a good deal of quiet , missionary work is be ing done by the opponents of sab- script ion, and some of. them profess to be confident :that -both subscrip tions will falPsborVof a majority of .the registered vote.- ; r , .. -.: The State Guard Kaeamament. ; The Raleigh News and Observer says: " We note with pleasure that the en campment of tbe State Gaard is to be held at Wrightsville, the charming summer resort near Wilmington, which has a wealth of fine old coun try seats where hospitality reigns su preme, abundant shade from magnifi cent specimens of the live oak, the magnolia and the pine and all the Sleasures of immediate proximity to oth the ocean and the sbund. The decision means a very happy sojourn for our soldier boys this summer by the sounding sea and a very pleasant occasion, too, for the Wilmington people, who will simply "spread themselves," it may safely be said, in order that the duties of camp-life may not weigh tho heavily on the flower of our youth. Aaaaaic and. Battery. William Jordan, a young colored man about twenty years of age, was arrested yesterday for assault and battery on his step-mother Mary Jor dan. The battered condition of the woman's head and face showed that she had been roughly handled, and it was in evidence that William struck his step-mother with a billet of wood. The p arties live on Fourth near Cas tle street. At the conclusion of the examination, Justice Millis required the defendant to give bond in the sum of fifty dollars for his appearance at the next term of the Criminal Court. A Growing (batch. The Lutheran.Church in the United States is growing at a very rapid rate. It numbers 4,234 ministers and 1,000, 000 communicant members.

Dr. Jacobs, of Philadelphia, last week, he sets forth the statistics of five million souls The church has doubled her membership every four teen years, and is now third in strength among the Protestant churches of America.

The Savings and Trust Company. - The Board of Directors of the Wil mington Savings and Trust Com pany, at their meeting Friday evening, elected Mr. Whit. P. Toomer cashier, and Mr. E. S. Martin corpora tion attorney. The President was authorized to secure a banking office, and as soon as such office is suitably arranged the savings bank will be opened for business. At the same meeting an investment committee was appointed, consisting of the President, Col. J. W. Atkinson, Mr. B. F. Hall and Mr. Geo. R. French, Jr. The Sound Railroad. A suspension of work on the Sound railroad yesterday gave rise, of course, to a flood of rumors. All ef forts of a persistent and energetic Star reporter failed to locate the cause of suspension; but a prominent stockholder, who is in a position to know, gives the assurance that the suspension is only temporary prob ably for not more than three or four days and that there is not the slight est doubt that the road will be com pleted, by the present contractors, to the hammocks by July 1st.
