The funeral of the late Associate Justice Matthews took plaee at his late residence in Wash ington yesterday afternoon, and was largiy attended; the President and Cabinet, Supreme Court Justices and iuauy other prominent persons were present; the remains were taken to Glendale, Ohio, for interment. The third week of the Fall River strike opened yesterday without any great change in the situation; a big mass meeting of strikers was held, when it was unanimously voted to continue the strike. The labor movement 'is spreading throughout Germany, and many strikes are ret ported. Rosanna McConnick, a noted character of Jordan's Springs, Virginia, was found dead at her home yesterday; she died in her boots. Abram S. Hewitt and other capital ists of New York have made large in vestments in Southern mining prop erties. Ex-President Cleveland is receiving many attentions in Cuba, and is enjoying himself sight-seeing. A London dispatch reports that Mr. John Bright has had a serious re lapse, and that his doctor is in con stant attendance. Mr. Parnell's solicitor calls attention to an annoy ing mistake with reference to Pigott, which was made by Attorney General Webster in the House of Commons on Friday last.

What a sad headline "Wages Reduced in Lancaster, Pa." This is whit the Tariff has done. In West Virginia there are some seventy Republicans under indict' meat for violating the election laws. After all the blowing Whitelaw llid isas confirmed, and so was Freddy Grant. This is Civil Service Reform with a vengance. Mr. A tram S. Hewitt, the able De mocratic statesman of New York, and large manufacturer, says he would certainly move to the South if younger. Mr. Cleveland is held in high esteem at home and is honored abroad. The Havanians are paying all respect to the able and brave Democratic ex-President. It is apparent that the bounty-fed, tariff-puffed Monopolists at Fall River do not mean to yield to the operatives that are only asking for the old wages. London is rolling under its tongue In the Gorton Division of Lanca shire the Gladstone candidate is elec ted by a largely increased majority over the last election. It does look &9 if a genuine and widespread reac tion against Toryism bad set in in good earnest. Let it roll. another "scandal in high life" the matrimonial infelicities of the Mar quis of Donegal. His wife sues for a divorce the charge being cruelty and desertion. He had trouble also with his first wife, who was a di vorced woman. Mr. Woodrow Wilson baa a new hook in press, upon which he ha been engsged for some years. We are not informed of-its title or the Precise scope. It will " deal with Governments, and will cover the wide field from ancient to modern, including the United Statea. He ii Toang author of very marked abuses. 1- 00 00 ta W VOL. XLIV.-rNO. 3. "Bloody" Balfour was actually made to blush the other day when he was reoeived by loud derisive laughter by the Home Rulers as he entered the House. The London special to New York Times gives this account of what followed: 'ThU reception flustered him so that when the vote on account was taken up, and Morlev had opened his attack on him. his reply was the weakest and most ram bling speech that he ever made. "The tall, burlv, vigorous Harcourt,who grows a lustier fighter with age, followed, and his speech was almost cruel In the frankness with which he told the Irish Se cretary that he had lowered all the tradi tiona of English Ministerial life by giving false answers and defending things which admitted of no defence. He proceeded with ther merciless arraignment amid wild cheers from the Irish snd Liberal benchee, pointing his finger as he spoke at Balfour, who finished angrily." The literary critic of the New York World makes unfavorable com- I ment 0D some specimen pages of the great "Century Dictionary" in course of publication. This is a mammoth undertaking. A copy will cost $90. I closes its sharp criticism by saying: "The publishers of the 'Century Diction ary' hare deserved better service. "They have projected a great and useful work, and if their well-conceived plan had been discreetly and carefully executed 'Century Dictionary' would have been a msfnificent addition to the standard works of this age and country. The beautiful mechanical execution, the elegant typogra phy, the admirable engraving, the perfect paper, all show that ihd intention of the publishers has been ta do their part most liberally. It is pitiable to see such an effort marred by slipshod negligence." 4The New York Herald, like some other Northern papers, gets off a good deal of rot on the race ques tion. The Herald writers sit in their oozy private offices and treat of the duty of the Southern whites and the course they should pursue in dealing with the negroes just as if they had any knowledge of the delicate and difficult matter treated. , Those big Northern papers are wondrously wise they think as to the race problem. Bat are they not won drously ignorant and pretentious? The following from the Raleigh Visitor is a fitting conclusion to our leader on the second page. Oar con- temporary says: "A gentleman received a letter yesterday from Illinois, making inquiries as to the chances of white farm hands pelting em ployment in this State. He said in his let ter that there were 80,000 farm handa in that State who were anxious to come to this State to work on farms, provided they could secure permanent employment. As the exodus movement seems to be growing and there is a likelihood of a scarcity of la bor, it would be well to eocotirage all wor thy emigrants who desire to make our t ec tion their home." All concerned might take note. Cleveland received 5,540,529 votes and Harrison 5,439,853, a majority for Cleveland over his competitor of 110,476. That is the majority of all, but Cleveland has a million majority of the white voters. There were 410,850 votes polled for four other candidates. The total vote polled was 11,391,132. This vote is not so very much larger than it was in 1884. Virginia is prolific in authors now as she was once prolific in great statesmen and soldiers. Another new aspirant for literary honors has ap peared in the person of Judge Duke, of Charlottesville. The New York Herald says: "One of these, 'A Musician's Story,' by R. T. W. Duke. Jr., a weird fancy, which to Conway's pictures queness and vivid di rectness adds a poetical charm of its own, will be published in the issue of March 3181" Pigott'a diary now in the hands of Mr. Parnell's solicitors, is said to create much' dismay in Tory circles. It is said to contain a complete record of all the dead forger's negotiations with the Times and the Government. It will be produced in court. It was obtained through Michael Davitt. New York civilization has reached a point when two women in sealskins had a regular set-to in a thorough fare in the great city. They shucked their finery and pitched in in regular Sullivan style. It was witnessed by five hundred people, among them po licemen. I AEW ADTBRTISKMESTS. MUBSOKS Spring suitings. . Mchds Bbothxbs Druggists. Stab Orricrm Wrapping paper. E. Warbjoi & 8on Hot peanuts.

Many ladies went down to the Hammocks yesterday with the Y. M. C. A. delegates. The weather was pleasant, although there were oc casional showers. The Christian Association of Grace Methodist Church holds its regular monthly meeting at 8 o'clock this evening. An address is expected from a member of the association. The Norfolk landmark of Sunday says: " "J. W. Woody, Esq., of Messrs Woody & Co., cotton fac tors, left for Wilmington, N. C, jes terday evening where he will remain during the Spring and Summer, re suming the cotton business here next Fall." The Board of Directors of the Wilmington & Weldon Railroad Com pany have authorized the payment of three and a half per. cent, interest on certificates of indebtedness of the company; payable at the treasurer's office in this city on and after the 1st of April. The report of the Railroad Commissioners of South Carolina shows that the earnings of the Wil mington, Columbia & Augusta Rail road for January, 1889, are $12,881.68 more than for January, 1888, and of the Northeastern Railroad $11,232.76 more than for the same month last year. ArrancimtDt for Truck Grower. The Atlantic Coast Line authori ties are making arrangements to han dle the immense quantities of truck which will be shipped from all points on the line this season. Mr. J. R. Ken- ly. Assistant General Manager, and one of the most experienced railroad men in the country, is now arranging for the running of the through vege table dispatch train. This service went into effect last year on the 9th of April, but as the crops are somewhat backward this season, it may be start ed later this year. A meeting of re presentatives of the Pennsylvania Railroad, the Atlantic Coast Line, the Plant system and various Florida rail roads will be held in Charleston to day, to decide all matters in connec tion with the running of these trains and to adopt a schedule for them. Whatever is done Mr. Kenly gives the assurance that the fast service will be put in operation as soon as the ship ments warrant; it, and that especial care will be taken to have the sche dule arranged to suit shippers and growers. j Circulars have been issued by the Atlantic Coast Line giving the vegeta ble tariff via the Atlantic Coast Dis patch all rail, to New York, Philadel phia, Washington and Baltimore,and also via the Portsmouth steamers. The changes made in the rates of shipment from those of last year have already been given in the Stab. Tb Appropriation. There seems to be very little oppo sition to the appropriation for the encouragement: of manufacturing, and it will no doubt receive a major ity of the registered vote next Thurs day, if its friends will attend at the polls and remind the voters of the fact that the question is to be decided on that day. The impression that this appropriation, if ratified at the polls, will require any issue of city bonds is entirely erroneous. Neither will it result in any increase of taxes. The bill simply provides that the owners of any new manufacturing en. terprise, or of any extension of an old plant, shall, for a period not exceed ing ten years, be reimbursed by the Chamber of Industry in an amount equal to the municipal taxes paid by such owners, t wiar lacieasion. The following are the indications for to-day: For Virginia and North Carolina, fair, preceded by light rain In south eastern Virginia and on the North coast; cooler northerly winds. RNIN STATE CONVENTION or tna Yearns xnna cbrlatlan Auoel UaI Data Proceeding;, SU3TDAT, MARCH 24. This was the last day of the Con vention of the Young Men's Christian Association, i - and the exercises throughout were varied and intense ly interesting, and the people were so fully awake to the importance of the occasion that one was forcibly reminded of the fervor and religious enthusiasm that prevailed about a year ago when Rev R. G. Pearson was here and aroused the zeal of our people to the highest pitch. At 10 o'oloek there was a consecra tion meeting at the First Baptist Church.conducted by A. W. McLeod, which was fully , attended, and. in which many of the del egates consecrated themselves anew to the glorious cause of our Lord and Master Jesus Christ. The exercises were interspersed with sing ing and many sweet prayers were of fered up in His cause. Some of the speeches, which were all very short, were pathetically touching, appeal -ing to the heart, till the foundations of love and joy overflowed in sacred tears. To the Christian soul it was truly a heart-reaching and revivify ing occasion. AFTSBXOOir SERVICES. At 4:15 p. mn a meeting was held expressly for the benefit of the ladies at Grace M. E. Church, conducted by L. A. Coulter, assisted by J. H. South gate, W. A. Blair, J. J. Stowe and G. B. Hanna, (Prof. Gidney had also been assigned to this meeting, but was called away by the sickness of his mother.) The chureh was crowded we might say packed with ladies of the city, all of whom seem ed eager and earnest to bear every word that was uttered, and de termined to avail themselves of all the words of wise advice which might be given for the benefit of the young men of our beautiful city. The speeches were all excellent and every word came from tongues consecrated to the cause of Jesus Christ. The needs of a building for the Young Men's Christian Association in this city, to be owned by the Association, was forcibly impressed upon the minds of the ladies, and they were urged to do all in their power to aid in this great and laudable enterprise. At the First Presbyterian Church. at 4:15 p. m., there was a meeting es pecially for boys, of whom there were 175 present under 18 years of age. The meeting was conducted by E. L. Har ris, assisted by G. T. Adams, 8. H Dean, W. C. Dowd and Rev. R. C. Beaman. The subject considered was "What the Lord Jesus is to the Boys," and it was very forcibly discussed. Bongs and Scriptural quotations were given to illustrate the query. At the close of the meeting the claims of our Saviour were forcibly and earnestly presented to fifty of these boys and of this number twenty-seven gave their names as specially and earnestly wish ing for entrance Into the fold of the Master. The meeting was deeply in teresting and it was a gratifying suc cess in the number who wished to en list under the banner of the Lord. At 4:30 p m. a meeting was held at the Opera House, conducted by J. R. Mott, assisted by A. W. McLeod, W. Black, G. M. Busey, T C. Diggs, and designed especially for men. It was well attended and an earnest and pa tient audience listened with profound delight to the words of wisdom that were uttered The chief sins and vices prevailing among the young men of the present day were pointed out and the consequence of indul gence in them vividly portrayed. The speeches were forcible, appropriate and undoubtedly will result in good. There were no idle words spoken for mere effect, but every utterance was significant and full of meaning - The audience seemed to Realize the efforts that were being made by this earnest and devoted Christian brotherhood for the moral, social, physical and eternal salvation of the young men, and we doubt not that more than one left the building at the conclusion of the services firmly determined to do all in his power to aid in this sacred duty. NIGHT SERVICES. The concluding services of the day, which terminated also the work of the Convention, were held at 8 p. m. at the First Baptist Church. The night was rainy, and some of the del egates not being fully acquainted with the genuine pluck of the fair daughters of Wilmington, expressed fears that the attendance of ladies would be very small.; But they were happily disappointed, as we knew they would be, for the ladies were there apparently as unconcerned re garding the weather as if it were one of the pleasantest nights of the sea son, and our visitors learned that when a Wilmington lady knew that something of interest was to be dis cussed for the benefit of the sons of our good old city, she was going to be there. In this instance the church wai crowded some time before the time appointed' for the commence ment of the services, and the number of ladies present was fully equal to I MARCH 26, 1889. that of any other day since the Con vention began its sessions. The exercises were begun by a ser vice of song, in which the congrega tion joined, and this brings to mind how a Wilmington musician, who is yet in his teens, was not to.be caught napping. A hymn was given out and before our friend, C. H. Munson, the organist, could find the plaee and ar range the books in proper position an enthusiastic delegate began to shrg.'and the congregation, of course, joined in. Our young friend, not the least perplexed, placed his book in position on the organ, ran lightly over the keys until he found the pitch in which the tune was being sung, and then played away as if nothing had happened, although he had to transpose the entire piece at signt, a task not easy to accomplish even by a professional. The address of the evening was a most thoroughly scholarly effort, by Rev. Dr. Hume. It was especially ap propriate to the occasion, and was a happy conception, prompted by warm love for the Master and a sin cere desire to benefit the young. He was listened to with delight and rapt attention, and, although at the outset, he said that he had suffered from a severe headache during the afternoon, the address was delivered with the force of perfect health and elastic youth. - At the conclusion of his address, brief remarks were made by others, G. C. Worth, of this city, being one of the number. He stated that $100 more than had been subscribed were heeded for the purpose of enabling those who contemplated engaging in Foreign Mission work to canvass the State in furtherance of this great and important undertaking, and upon his representation, a collection was taken up, resulting in a contribution amounting to $126.78 The following resolutions were then presented and were unanimously adopted : Resolved, That our sincere thanks are due and are hereby gratefully tendered; 1st. To the good people of Wil mington for the cordial and generous hospitality extended to our Conven tion, now assembled in this city. 2d. To the pastors of the different denominations, for so kindly and freely offering us the use of their churches in which to hold our differ ent services, and for the valuable as sistance and encouragement thev have given us by attending our meet ings and engaging with us in our ex ercises. 3d. To the Ladies Auxiliary for the tender sympathy they have manifest ed in our efforts and lour duties, and also, for the bountiful and gracious receptions given us while attending this Convention. 4th. To the different members who have so carefully and thoroughly in structed, while at tbe same time in teresting us, in the different modes of carrying on and perfecting the great work in which we are engaged, and to Mr G M Busey, general secretary of the YMUA of Wilmington for the very efficient aid rendered the Con vention, as well as the individual members who compose this body. 5th. To Mr W A Blair for the pa tient, faithful and business-like mannertin which he has so courteous ly but rap dly discharged the duties of his office as President of the Con vention, and to Messrs J F Jones, J. B Whitaker, Jr, and F A Harris, the secretaries of the Convention, who have so accurately reported our pro ceedings and so earnestly performed their onerous duties. 6th. To the various railroad com panies for the reduction of rates given us, with the hope that next time they may even help us more,so that greater numbers may be able to attend from afar; also to the newspapers of Wil mington that have encouraged us in our work and so faithfully published our proceedings. 7th. To the local committee for their untiring efforts in trying to add to our comfort and our pleasure, while guests in the citv. 8th. That we have noted with the deepest pleasure tbe regularity of the attendance and the earnestness of the members during the sittings of the Convention ; their thorough con secration to their work, and their zeal in our Master's cause, and we do pray erfully appeal to all present, that they return to their homes more fully aroused to the dignity and impor tance of our work, and that they, fol lowing in the footsteps of our beloved Saviour, may like him, go forth to do much good, remembering that he who shall save a soul from death, shall cover a multitude of sins. 9th. That a copy of these resolu be sent to all the newspapers of Wil mington, with a request that they be published. n a uienn, ju u iiobbs, j 11 South gate, D S Ellis. J W Joyner, G T Adams, W P Fife, Committee. The gentleman submitting the res olutions (we failed to get his name, but think it was R, B. Glenn), then made an eloquent appeal in behalf of the cause in which they were all en gaged. It was a splendid effort, re plete with glorious thoughts and prompting to high resolves. Rev. Dr. Pritchard responded brief ly, but brilliantly. His speech was a gem of wit and wisdom, such as he is so able to make. Revs. P. H. Hoge and W. S. Creasy also made brief re marks appropriate . to the closing hours of such an interesting occasion. The delegates then joined hands, forming a continuous chain extend ing all around the room in the outer aisles and upon and across the pulpit. When the chain thus formed had been- made com plete the choir then sang the hymn commencing "Blest is the sacred tie that binds etc.," at the conclusion of which Rev. Dr T TAB, WHOLE NO. 7018 Hume uttered a short prayer, pro nounced the benediction, and the presiding officer, W. A. Black, de clared the thirteenth annual session of the Young Men's Christian Asso ciation of North Carolina adjourned. There were also service, conducted by the delegates, at Grace M. E. Church, for the benefit of those who could not gain admittance to the First Baptist Church. It was fairly well attended. Thus ended one of the largest and most earnest Christian assemblages ever held in North Carolina, and one which cannot faiF; of producing im portant results. Tni Delecatee at tb HsmmocKi, Some of the delegates left yester day morning, but a larger number of them went down to the Hammocks, accompanied by many friends. A meeting was held at the sound, pre sided over by Mr. G. B. Hanna, of Charlotte, and a resolution intro duced by Mr. E. L. Harris, of Winston- Salem, was adopted, thanking the officials of the Seacoast railroad for their courteous treatment, and the people of Wilmington general ly for the kindness extended by them. The time was spent most pleasantly on the 8ound until about 1 o'clock when all returned to the city; some leaving for their homes on the Caro lina Central at 2 o'clock, while others left later in the afternoon by train on the Wilmington & Weldon road and on the steamer Cape Fear. Our people have tried to make the visitors enjoy themselves, and that' they succeeded admirably is indicated by the resolutions passed by the dele gates. An Interesting; Almanac. Mr. A. H. Herring, of Waycross, Sampson county, brought to the Star office yesterday Gales North Carolina Almanac for the year 1821. There are many interesting facts con tained in the little pamphlet. There were sixty-two counties in the State at the time this almanac was pub lished. The representatives in the Legisla'ure from New Hanover were George Fennell in the Senate andJno. Walker and Abel Morgan in the House The members of the Assembly for 1820 for Brunswick were Jacob W. Leon ard, Senator, and Alfred Moore and John Neal, Commoners. Cumberland county was then represented by John Black, Senator, and N. McNeill and Alex. McAllister, Commoners. John Branch was Governor at this time, his salary being $2,000 per year; and his private secretary, Wm. Plummer, re ceived $300 per year and fees. Criminal Court. The Criminal Court adjourned for the term yesterday. The following named prisoners, all colored, and all convicted of larceny, were sentenced to the Penitentiary, viz: Alfred Jones, 12 months; Albert Davis, three years; Henry Mace, 12 months; Wm Jones, 12 months; J as. Frazier, 12 months; Jno White, 12 months. Ed Edmunds, colored, was sentenced to ten months in the County House of Correction, for larceny. Railway mall Service, Major R. E.

Bren necke, the former chief clerk, will take Major Mansfield's place on the road. Mayor's Court. John Taylor, colored, convicted of disorderly conduct, was fined five dollars and costs. Henderson Hayes, colored, disor derly, was fined twenty dollars. Alonzo Durant, colored, disorderly, ten dollars fine. E.Jevenswas found guilty of dis orderly conduct,-but judgment was suspended.
