Information was brought to Mayor Mayor Fowler late yesterday afternoon of another assault by a highwayman on a countryman, about four miles from the city on the Castle Haync road and near the place where Mr. V. O. Johnston, of Harrison's Creek. Pender county, was attacked and robbed of his money last wcck. in oroan aayiiint. oy tnrcc un- known colored men. The victim in this last instance was Alex. Miore. a colored farmer, who was on his way home from market in Wil mington. NTo particulars were given ex cept that Moore was attacked about noon on the road, was struck on the back of the head and severely hurt, and that the loud outcry he made for his son. Mack M.xjre. frightened the robber, who ran oil. This is the third or fourth occurrence of the kind reported within the past few weeks. Tiie matter is beyond the power of the Mayor of the city; but it calls for the attention of the SheruT of the coun ty, whose power and duty it is to order out the fsissc conu'liUus. if necessary, to pursue and capture these bold, bad high waymen, before some good citizen per chance loses his life. A 25 POUND SHEEPHEAD. Fishing at the Uamniccka. The Charlotte Chronicle gives - the following account of one of the fishing exploits f two gentlemen of Charlotte sojourning at the Hammocks: "Mr. V. R. Burwell and Dr. M. A. Bland were fishing off the bridge across the inlet at the Hammocks yesterday for skipjacks. Mr. Burwell had his ordinary 8-foot pole and silk line with a tempered steel hook. He had been hauling up skipjacks at the rate of about 20 a minute when ali at once he had a bite that almost jerked his arm out of socket. He wrapped his legs around a post and with both hands tried to keep the fish from getting away with his pole. The reel spun around so fast that it smoked. Dr. Bland went to his assistance, and after a fight that lasted for ten minutes they landed a 2."-pound sheephead, the biggest fish of the kind that has ever been caught there with hook and line," Death of a Prominent Colored Minister. Rev. Cornelius Sampson, a prominent colored minister of the A. M. E. Church, died at his residence in Wilmington yes terday morning, aged CO years. He was a member of the A. M. E.

THE RECENT HOMICIDE- Coroner's Inquest Adjourned Until To-Day The Murderer in Jail A Few Facts .Concerning His Life. Coroner Jacobs yesterday summoned a jury to hold an inquest, in accordance with the law, on the body of Ed Hill, the colored fireman on the Seacoast rail road who was shot and killed at the Hammocks last Tuesday by David J. Garner. The jury with the coroner went out and identified the body as that of Edward Hill, and took the testimony of Dr. Lane at the Citv Hospital, when the inquest was adjourned to se cure the attendance of witnesses of the shooting from the Hammocks. It will be resumed this morning at 10 o'cltock at the county Court House. 1 Several applications were made at tie jail yesterday by reports and others for permission to see Garner, but no one . r , i 1 with the exception oi nis counsel was al lowed to do so. When informed by Mr. Elder, the jailor, Tuesday night, that Hill was dead. Garner sighed deeply and said, "Oh, Lord! I can't help it. You can do what you please with me." As is the custom with all prisoners who en ter the jail, his age, height, weight and description were recorded. He gave his name as David J. Garner, aged 38 years; his height is 5 feet, 64 inches; weight 12G pounds; has gray eyes, and fair com plexion. His father and mother, be says, are both dead, and he has neither brother nor sister living. Capt. Alex. C. Moore, of this city, told a reporter yesterday that he was well acquainted with Garner, and had known him from boyhood, but had seen little of him lor the past few years until Garner came to Wilmington several months ago. Garner is a house carpenter by trade, he was born in Carteret county, and was raised in the family of the late Richard Canaday in Onslow, and is related to the family. He was always considered a quiet, industrious man, peaceably disposed, but was regarded as flighty" in mind at times. Capt. Moore said Garner left Onslow last Fall and started in a small boat with two com panions for Florida, to kill birds for their umage; but upon arriving at Wil mington his companions left him, and Garner concluded to remain here, and subsequently was employed by Messrs. W. E. Davis & Son, and continued in their employ as a fisherman during the shad season and afterwards went with his sharpie to Wrightsville to engage in fishing at that place. The IT. M. C. A.

Schloss, Jacobs, Ureenewaia ana Hawes furnished some fine instrumental music. ING STATE DENTAL ASSOCIATION. First Day's Proceedings Address of Wel come and Response The President's Address Committee Reports To-day's Programme. The Dental Association was opened yesterday with prayer by Dr. Hoge, fol lowed with an address of welcome by Mr. Iredell Meares, which was respond ed to in a most happy manner by Dr. V. E. Turner, of Raleigh. The address and response were both loudly and con tinuously applauded. WELCOMING ADDRESS BY IREDELL MEARES. Gentlemen of the North Carolina State Dc7ital Association : I am charged by your professional brethren, of this city, with the very agreeable duty of extending to you their greeting and welcome upon this occa sion of your sixteenth annual assembly, This I do, not only in their behalf, but upon the part of our citizens generally, who are always glad to receive and glad to welcome within our midst a body of learned and representative gentlemen. Exactly why I should have been honored by this selection, I did not at first un derstand, nor do I now, unless it is that having been so frequently under the treatment oi our resident dentists tney have come to regard me as practically a part ot the prolession, and as teeth are said to be aids to speech and their skill has so often attempted to improve my natural complement, I will not say without success, perhaps it is sup posed that their dexterity in prac tice may somehow be demonstrated by an exhibition of my improved powers ot speech. What, then, is want ing in the appropriateness of my re marks may be charged entirely to the inefficiency of Drs. Durham, Matthews and Baldwin. I confess that I rather enjoy the novelty of the situation. Be longing to a profession, which the cynic is severe enough to call a talking one, and accrediting myself with being per sonally fond of tnc pastime, I have here tofore felt at a disadvantage in that line in my association with dentists. 1 he charming complacency with which the average operator, who having mouthed and gagged you with paper or ' rubber dam," or vice 7'crsa, converses of inter esting topics entirely out of tune with the tension of your nerves, has always commanded my admiration, despite its tantalizing effects, and stirred my re venge, because it was necessarily a one sided affair. To be able then at one chance to talk to so large a number of dentists, while they remain silent, if not by the force of paper and "rubber-dam" at least by the custom of courtesy, is some compensation to me for the many weary hours I have passed m the dental chair, with my nisors painfully wedged apart, my bicuspids packed with rubber, or my posterior molars hammered to the quick step of Dixie. On one occasion, while preparations were making to extract one of my canines, the fertile genius of the operator suggested that m order to di vert my pain 1 think ot my sweetheart. In the inexperienceof my youth I acted on the suggestion, and the hideous, dis jointed and monstrous proportions that sweet girl assumed in my imagination dissipated for me her charm and beauty and deferred to several years later my matrimonial alliance. On another oc casion, as the operation was proceeding with infinite satisfaction to one party at least my clever doctor, with the most PTnnrrntinf unconsciousness ot his sui- fering patient; joyously exclaimed that , - r ..." . i- 1: a he would rather have been engaged in filling such a beautiful cavity than din ing at Delmonico's. It is needless for me to say that at that particular mo ment I would have refused dining at Delmonico's, even at my own expense. That profound observation of my clever dentist has lead me to the firm convic tion that dentistry, however else it may be defined, is differentiated from all pur suits, occupations and professions in its absolute divorcemunt of all sympathy between patient and operator. But the more genuine pleasure I take upon this occasion, is in being the me dium to express ihe pride with which we regard your association, for we are educated by the ability, high character and personal worth of our resident den tists to venerate your profession, and also to express the gratification we ex perience by the fact of your honoring our city by your presence here. He who is informed,' well knows that within the period of the past fifty years, dentistry has developed from a mechanical art in to one of the more important and learn ed branches of medicine, having its col leges throughout the land, with their ed ucated professors and high curricula, and that the dentist of to-day is no longer the mere mechanical expert, but the educated gentleman, with an en lightened knowledge of medical science, especially in its bearings upon the func tions and diseases of the teeth, coupled with mechanical skill and familiarity with metallurgy. In the rapid development and pro gress which has elevated the dental pro fession to its present position of digni ty, importance and beneficence, it is grat ifying to reflect that the American den tists have been foremost in advancing the great work. As zealous workers then in that limitless field of American labor, learning, science, art and industry, upon which vou are organized to ad- vance the usefulness and enlarge the possibilities of your high calling, we greet you, gentlemen, with congratula tions upon the past achievements of your profession, and encouragement for its continuous growth. As Caro linians, hailing from all sections of our hploved State even from the foliaged ,r,to,-n tnnc r,f th Rine Ridfre to the barren sand dunes of Currituck, we wel- excludes incompetent persons from en come you to the hospitable shores of tering upon the practice. and imposing the Cape Fear, and we throw open our homes," our hearts, and, excepting the ladies our arms to receive you with brotherly affection. When you shall have finished your deliberations, which I hope will be at tended with interest, pleasure and profit to all of you, and have turned your minds to thoughts of enjoyment, we in vite you to partake of our best hospital ity; drive with us over our beautiful city and note its wonderful progress; visit our points of historic interest, and loiter at our suburban resorts. We will sail with you and fish with you, rollick with JUNE 26, 1890. you in the surf, fan you with the ocean breeze, and if you are not afraid of things that are warm, we will permit you to oasK in our summer sun. In fact, we are prepared to do any and everything tor your comtort and enter tainment, except offering ourselves as voluntary subjects for your experi mental and surgical operations. When you have dined upon our pig fish, served with oyster patties and clam fritters, you will be, or ought to be, en thused with a renewed determination to protect the molars of your patients that they, too, following you to our seashore, may be the more able to enjoy the deli ciousnes of that repast; and when you have drunk our Rock Spring water, an invitation we traditionally extend and practically intend to be honored more in the breach than in the observance, you will either return to Wilmington as a citizen thereof, or to your original dust as a willing sacrifice to malaria. But there are many things in this commu nity called Rock Spring water other than the original, and lest you may be led astray unwittingly by a misnomer I cau tion you to examine carefully the prof fered water, before drinking unwisely. In truth, gentlemen, we are glad to see you, and alter you have sojourued with us a few days we hope you will be so pleased with our city and its people that you will not only return to us on an occasional visit, but that you will al come to practice your profession among us. RESPONSE TO ADDRESS OF WELCOME DY V. E. TURNER, OF RALEIGH. In behalf of the State Dental Associa tion it becomes my pleasant duty to re spond to the welcome which has been so cordially extended to us 1 hat a kind reception would emanate from these open-hearted and chivalrous people of the Cape Fear section who have been so ably represented this morn ing, was no more than was expected by every one who has had the good fortune to be thrown among them That this grand old city, filled with the descendants of the purest and gen tlest blood known to the Carolinas or to the South, should receive us in a man ner becoming the traditions of their fathers is no surprise to us. As a peo ple, they possess to an extent beyond any I have ever known a happy and easy grace of manner which conveys a cor diality no words can express which breathes a welcome generous and heart felt so that every visitor to this friend ly section recognizes at once its genial influence; a people who, in spite of mis fortune and adversities, have remained true to the interests of their section and maintained the characteristics ot a re fined and gentle race, distinguished for their adhesion to principles which are dear to every Southern heart. And if anything could add to the pleasure of this reception it is the charm ing and graceful manner in which we have been greeted by one of your prom inent and talented citizens In recognition ot the kind mention of our Society, a few words relating to its history and objects may not be amiss. In the first place, it should be stated that dental surgery, being a young pro fession, was and is still deficient in its literature and text-books, and progress could only be made by associated efforts. Sixteen years ago a tew zealous prac titioners, feeling that it was necessary to make a united effort to promote a higher order of dentistry and to battle against the ignorant and incompetent fossils who were working so much injury and degradation to our science, held a meet ing in oeauion. This little band, numbering not more than six or eight, organized the State Association, and, though few in num ber, there was evinced a full determina tion to place dentistry upon a higher plane, and to keep pace with our sister States in the progress of the science. riom that time we have met every year, increasing our members till there were present at our last meeting in Greensboro about sixty dentists who are our most reputable practitioners and represent nearly every section of the State. The great object of these aunual gath erings is mutual improvement by com paring ideas and experience, by investi gating and exemplifying all that may be new, and by perlecting our metnoas oi treatment, and by gaining any know ledge that may aid us in the effort to ameliorate human suffering and to ele vate the standard of professional attain ments. It has been our custom to invite emi nent practitioners from other States and the larger cities to meet with us and to demonstrate any specialties to which they may have been devoting them selves, and in. which they may have be come distinguished experts, thereby affording to every member of our Asso ciation an opportunity to witness the new and advanced methods'o! treatment. Another conspicuous object of the Society has been to encourage the younger members and those whose op portunities for preparation have not been so favorable, to unite with us, so that we might throw around them such influences as would arouse them to a higher ambition and a more conscien tious discharge of the duties which lie before them. Ouite a number of young men of lim ited means have, through the assistance of the Association, been enabled to com plete the course of study in the Dental schools, and some of them to-day rank with the foremost operators of this State, and will compare favorably with those from any other State. In thus taking a higher stand, we nave been enabled to enlist in the cause men of more ability and education. During its short existence this body has acquired sufficient influence to se cure such legislation as to a great extent upon the people. These and other creditable results have been achieved by the Society, in spite of the active opposition of quacks and charlatans; and yet we regard this as a mere beginning. We feel that we have scarcely reached the threshold of the vast possibilities of the future. Your recogmon ot our objects and aims, which is vouchsafed to us by your kind attention this morning, is a reward we prize beyond anything else, and will be cherished by us for years to come, That a refined and cultivated people should give us their approval and good TAR WHOLE NO. 7.407 wishes is a glorious triumph, and will stimulate us to renewed energy and zeal in the effort to make dentistry in North Carolina as progressive as it is in any other State. In conclusion I will say that I only hope our sojourn here will be as profitable to the profession as we have made it pleasant to us. The President's address, by Dr. Hil liard, of Rocky Mou nt, was pointed, timely and practical. Particulaily ap propriate was that part in reference to the "pot hunters" (i. e. the men who go from house to house in a community with a kit of tools) who ruin thou sands of teeth annually by the very grossest kind of malpractice. Several suggestions therein made were endorsed by the Society, and a legislative com mittee appointed, as advised, to see that a law be passed the coming winter pro tecting dentists, precisely as the medical profession is now favored. The dental profession already has a good law to pro tect it from the evils of the empiric, the tyro, the charlatan; but wants a some what stronger one; and that an intelli gent legislative body will grant it goes without saying. A special paper on "Dental Ethics" was read by Dr. A. M. Culbreth, of Whiteville, and discussed at considera ble length. Papers were also read by Dr. J. E. Wyche, of Oxford, on "Chemistry and Metallurgy;" Dr. Rominger, on "Physi ology;" Dr. Harris, on "Pathology and Therapeutics," and Dr. H. D. Harper, of Kinston, on "Mechanical Dentistry." The essayist, Dr. Raminger, read a serio-comic paper on "Contradictory Nonsense," which was highly enjoyed and applauded to the echo. The "old war horse," Dr. J. W. Hun ter, of Salem, is on hand as usual and is the best loved dentist in all North Car olina. EVENING SESSION. The Convention convened pursuant to adjournment, President Hilliard presid ing. The Executive Committee re ported favorably upon the applications of Drs. L. White and W. B. Murphy to become members of the Society, and upon being balloted upon they were de- claredduly elected. Applications of Drs. Tucker and Mor row were reported to the Society and referred to the Executive Committee. The special order of the evening ses sion was then taken up, which was the advisability of the appointment of a committee of five whose duty it shall be to investigate the subject of more ex tensive dental legislation. The presi dent appointed the following named gentlemen on that committee: Drs. J. H. Durham, J. F. Griffith, H. D. Har per, E. L. Hunter and H. C. Herring to report to the Society at a subsequent meeting. The Executive Committee reported to the Society some irregularities upon the part of some of the members rela tive to the matter of taking and in structing students. TO-DAY'S PROGRAMME. Dr. J. E. Matthews, Supervisor of Clinics, submitted the following pro gramme for to-day, the Clinic beginning at 9.30 a. m.: Drs. J. E. Wyche and F. S. Harriss: Treatment of alveolar abscess by ex traction; excision of sac and replanta tion of tooth; nitrous oxide gas being exhibited in extraction. Dr. T. M.
