In all human probability Stephen Freeman, the condemned rapist, will take his last look upon earth to morrow; all the arrangements have been completed and between the hours of eleven and twelve o'clock the fatal bolt will be sprung that will launoh his soul into eternity. The execution will take place in the up per corridor of the jail, close to the rear wall, and will be conducted by Deputy Sheriff Elder. The attend ance is limited by law to thirty-six persons, but besides this number there will be the sheriffs assistants and four policemen who will be sta tioned within the building. The condemned man says that he is resigned to his fate; yet he con tinues to assert that he is innocent of the crime for which he Is to be hung. Yesterday he received a letter from the Governor, in answer to one written by himself.making a last ap peal for executive clemency. The Governor told Freeman that he was unable to do anything more for him; that he sympathized with him, but that he (Freeman) had a fair trial, and that the law must now take its course. Freeman is vis ited every day by his spiritual ad viser. Father Burns, and his wife spends an hour or two with him every day. Yesterday he told Father Burns that if he could have some one to sing two or three hymns during the execution it would strengthen him and he "wouldn't mind it a bit." Father Burns pointed out to him that this was not in accordance with the custom of the Catholie Church; but Freeman persisted, and the matter was finally referred to the deputy sheriff in charge.

Tba Speaking; Last Nlgnt A Grand Farad and froessslon Led by the Yoanaj Men's Deaaaeratle Club Wilmington's Democracy was Ablaze last night with enthusiasm at the first of the series of ratification meetings that are to be held in different sec tion! of the State in honor of our Na tional and State nominees. Lighted tar barrels, blazing torches, white hats and red bandanas foretold the large concourse of people who assem bled to hear the .many distinguished speakers. The crowd was variously estimated from two to three thou sand, and it remained until the band played "The Old North State" when Col. Waddell iiad finished. The meeting was called to order by Mr. Jno. D. Bellamy, Jr., Chairman of the Democratic Executive Com mittee of this county, who nomi nated the following gentleman for its permanent officers: President Hon. Charles M. Sted man. Vice Presidents G W Williams, T D Meares, E Lilly, Clayton Giles, A D Brown, G H Smith, J H Davis, J M Williams, A Adrian, Jas Madden, A J Yopp, Sam Bear, Jr, John S Mo Eachern, J W Reilly, Roger Moore, J G Oldenbuttel, M Hankins, A Weill, Fred Rhew, W K Bell, W M Poisson, J C Stevenson, S H Penny, Charles Schulken. Secretaries Reporters of Wilming ton Democratic Press. Maj. Stedman, upon taking the chair, thanked the people for the honor conferred of presiding over such a glorious meeting, and said if it was intended by this ratification for the people of the Cape Fear section to show their devotion to the Demo cratic party, it was of no purpose The neorjle of this section hn.d aIwava been, were now and would ever be the champions of the party upon which depend the honor, the integrity and welfare of our State. He referred to Grover Cleveland as a man of destiny and compared him with Mahomet and Stonewall Jackson, and with him was coupled that ideal Democrat, A. G. Thurman, of Ohio, who had always stood up for Southern rights against the Republican leaders, who tried to degrade Southern manhood "and womanhood. He said that victory was in the air; every breeze foretold it. The Republicans, through one of their leaders, conceded 40,000 majority in the State. They desired a coalition with the Prohibitionists, but greatly to the credit of that party, it has re fused to receive them. The remains of the Republican party were mak ing overtures to Mrs. Belva Lock- wood, but she declined to have any thing to do with the Southern wing of that party, and was now taking an advisan on the Northern contingent. In conclusion, 'he introduced the next Governor of North Carolina, a man renowned for his eloquence, a de votee of constitntional liberty, and one whose name was a guaranty of honor and integrity. Maj. Stedman was often interrupt ed by applause, and his speech was, as usual, a model of propriety and eloquence. Judge Fowle was received with three cheers by the Young Men's Democratic Club. Judge Fowle thanked the Club and those present for its great enthusiasm, and said that here 112 years ago the people of the Cape Fear section won the first battle of American Independence, and it was extremely proper tbat the first battle of this great contest against the Republican party should be" com menced here under the leadership of our gallant and chivalrous Chairman, Charles M. Stedman. He congratu lated them on the action of the St. Louis Convention in' nominating Cleveland and Thurman. He spoke of the glorious victories won under Vance, Jarvis and Scales, and the victory in this year of Democratic grace would be so great as to sweep out of existence the remnants of Re publicanism, The Republican party deceitful and . inconsistent, was ap pealing to a constituency which it had betrayed, to a people it had de graded claiming to defend the weak, it has helped corporations and mo nopolists; olaiming to be a friend of the laboring man, it has placed at the head of its National ticket a man who was ready to subdue them with cannon and musket. Posing as the friend of naturalized citizens, it had nominated a man who said the Irish, German and other foreigners had no right here; but was known as "Chi nese Ben." In four years more, Judge Fowle said, the Democratic party would be in fqll power, and then the South, the birth-place and home of statesman ship, would be more fully represented and would have a place on the Presi dential ticket. " As he concluded and spoke of the bells ; pealing out like the Aztecs of old, reminding them of danger and urging them to the fray, the town elock struck and was a happy coinci dence. Judge Fowle, all through his capi tal speech, scored the Republican Star JULY 10, 1888. party for its inconsistencies and deceitfulness, and charmed his hear ers, as jwas fully testified to by the accentuation which the loud applause gave to his many, finely rounded periods. Attorney General Davidson was the next speaker. He said that it was well these meetings should begin in the chief commercial city of the State. They would find the Piedmont and mountain section close on their heels in the fight. His only objection to Cleveland had been that he did not hate Radicals enough, but his tariff message converted him. Gen. Davidson's spech was excellent and to the point. Maj. S. M. Finger, Superintendent or Publio Instruction, was the next speaker. He said that the St. Louis Convention, like our meeting to night, just ratified the nominations the people had already made. He called attention to Mr. Dockery's in consistency on the eounty govern ment system, and said he believed in a rule by intelligence and character, and the West would stand by the East. Maj. Finger is an earnest and enthusiastic speaker, and was listened to with marked attention. -Rev. Geo. W. Sanderlin of Wayne, was next introduced, and his speech was indeed a gem. He won his hear ers from the start by "laying down" his text on Young Men's Democratic Clubs. The meeting to-night remind ed him of the gathering of the clans in Scotland and the beacon fires be ing lighted from hill to hill. The young men the hope of our party- were starting the fires and it was a good omen. The Democratic party contained the principles of perpetual youth and all who drank of them were so endowed. Therefore all men however old, were eligible members of Young Men's Democratic Clubs Every Person led to study words, There was one name in this section which was worthy of study. Steady- man by euphony became the gallant and chivalrous Stedman, whose motto is "Be true and fear not. Let all the ends thou aim at ;be thy country's, truth's, ' and God's." He urged the young men to "spread themselves," and retired amid loud and long con tinned applause. Mr. Sanderlin will always receive a warm welcome from our people. Capt. : W. H. Kitchin, of Halifax county, was next introduced and his speech was entertaining and instruc tive. His remarks were received with much applause. He said he was born a Democrat and he never wanted to die if he did not die a Democrat. He was born a white man and wanted to be carried off like one of the prophets of old if he did not die a white man. Capt. Kitchin discussed the tariff and made most of his speech upon the color line. In conclusion, he said that while he had the kindest feeling- for the colored man yet this was a white man's government and' they would govern it and they ought to do so be cause of their intelligence. He referred to the principles of the party which all the candidates repre sented, and paid a lovely tribute to Col. Waddell and Maj. Stedman Cape Fear's noblest sons which was received with much applause and en thusiasm. Hon. S. J. Pemberton, of Stanly, our own elector, was the next speak er. He spoke briefly of Grover Cleve land and what he represented, and contrasted him with the Republican candidate. He referred to Dockery as Gen. Dockery under Hold en, and made good points against "My Son Gllver." : Mr. Pemberton will doubt less be heard from again before the campaign is over, and will have time to discuss the issues of the day. There were now loud calls for "WaddelP and Col. Waddell reluc tantly yielded to speak and was re ceived with loud and long continued applause. Col. Waddell said that owing to the lateness of the hour he would make no political speech, but simply arose to bow his acknowledge ments for the kindness always shown him by his people. The Democratic party, he continued would gain no victory "by terrorism, by the corrupt use of power and money, but would win by a sober appeal to reason. Cleveland was the synonym of every civio virtue and Thurman was the noblest Roman of them all. The people of North Carolina, he thought, would be in no hurry to prefer to Allen G. Thurman, Levi P. Mor ton of New York, who was mow a party to a suit against the State oh ' the special tax bonds, whose name when he started busi- f ness in New York was Moses P. Levi. What benefit was to be gained by a change? The Republican party was the party of sectional strife, of boodle and of spoils, and our only hope of peace and prosperity "was in continuing the Democratic peorty in power. CoL Waddell made one of his characteristic speeohes, and was? lis tened to throughout and lo-adly cheered. This ended one of the most enhihu siastio meetings ever held in Wil mington! and too much praise t tan not be given to the Young Mt tft's Democratic Clab of. this city for th eir WHOLE NO. 6798 good work and hearty endeavors in making it a success. The Cornet Coneerfc Club dis- coursed several pieces during the evening, and every one was loud in their praise and of - Mr. Bellamy and his Executive Committee for such a grand success upon so short notice, and in such warm weather. A n Outrageous Assault. Mrs. . Em eline Roberts, a middle aged lady living on South Fifth street near Queen, was robbed and outrage-j- ously assaulted and maltreated last Sunday night. Mrs. Roberts says that she supr poses it was about two o'clock in the night when she was rudely aroused by some one grasping her throat. The light she had left burn ing when she retired had been extin guished and the room was in utter darkness. She struggled and tried to cry out for; help, but the man who was lying at full length upon her, tightened his grasp on his throat and at the same time pressed her head on her mouth and nose so that she was nearly suffocated. In her struggle to free herself from' the villain's clutch es she got some of the fingers of both her hands in his mouth, wlien he seized them with his teeth and bit them severely, The struggle, "she thinks, must have lasted some ten minutes, when sne lost con sciousness, and remembers nothing more until with returning sensibility she realized that she had been as saulted. Her assailant had disap peared, but it was some minutes be fore she had regained strength enough to give an alarm. When she did so, the family of A. J. Dicksey who occupied part of the house, came to her assist ance, and other persons living in the neighborhood. Mrs.Roberts was faint and weak, and blood was flowing from her mouth and nostrils, show ing the terrible intensity of her strug gle with the fiend. TJpon examination of the surround ings it was found that the man had entered the room adjoining Mrs. Rob erts' bed-room through the window, J -which he raised from the outside, using an old paint-Keg to stana upon. The two rooms had been thoroughly ransacked, and a chest opened and its contents scattered on the floor. The only thjng missed, however, was twenty-seven cents all the money the poor woman had- which had been taken from the pocket of her dress. Mrs. Roberts is forty-five years of age and a dress-maker by occupa tion. She has two sons-j-one living in Morehead and .auother on the Sound and a married daughter. She was visited yesterday by Dr. Potter" city physician, who found her utterly prostrated from the effects of the brutal treatment she had been subjected to. There is as yet no clue as to the perpetrator of this -outrage. Mrs. Roberts says that the hair on his head was cut very close, and that he had neither beard or mustache. A colored man who lives in the neigh borhood and who came out on the street when the alarm was given, says that he saw a man whom be took to be a mulatto, running down the street "as if he was making for the woods." Cardinal O lb bona. Col. F. W. Kerchner received a tel egram irom Jtsammore yesieraay evening announcing that Cardinal Gibbons will arrive here next Thurs day night on the 9.50 o'clock train from the North. Cardinal Gibbons' visit to Wilmington, which has been anticipated with pleasure by his many friends here, s for the purpose of formally installing Rev. Leo Haid as Bishop of North Carolina. The in stallation will take place next Sun day in St. Thomas' Church. The Young Catholic Friends Soci ety, a benevolent association found ed ip. this city several years ago by the Cardinal, met at their hall on Sunday afternoon last and adopted a resolution, unanimously, to tender him an escort upon his arrival. In accordance with this the Society will meet promptly at half-past 8 o'clock Thursday and will march in proces sion, headed by the Cornet Coneert Club, to Front street depot, wheaw the Cardinal will be received and es corted Ito the residence of Col.
