Previous to the war he was engaged in mercantile pursuits; tabseqaent to tbe period of reconstruction he was for msny years xhairman of the Board of Magistratea ol New Hanover county. and also an Inspector ol naval stores. He passed away oo yesterday after noon, bis dying bed surrounded by two sons, tbree daughters and thirteen grand children, exemplifying the inspired as surance of tbe Psalmist that to "Keep InnocencT and do the thing that It right will bring a man peace at the last." He was loved because be waa loving; re spected because be was manly, and true, aod iust; and be was venerable because tbe silvery halo ol age was the reflection ol a character pare, and strone. and helpful to his fellow man. His latter years were burdened by grievous physi cal ailments, which were hardly felt amidst the tender ministrations of bis large and loving family, and particularly by the pathetic and really angelic watch (ulneas ol a little graod daughter, to whom he was moat devotedly attached Mr. Jamet wat tbe oldest citizsa of Wilmington, and with him pisses away, almost, tbe last link that binds us to "the elder times" of tbe glory aod prowess ol tbe old North state.

The annual meeting of the Ministering Circle of King's Daughters wat held yetterday afternoon at the residence of the president, Mrs. C H King, who presided, with Mrs. C. O. Brerly secre tary. An election of officers for the entu. ing term resulted In a unanimous re election, at follows: President Mrs. E. H. King. Vice President Mn. Stella Thomp on. Secretary Mrs. C. O. Byerly. Treasurer Mrs. C. H. King. Mrs. King, the treaaurer, presented her report for the last year's work, which was accepted and ordered on file. Mrs. King then presented a report, showing tbe work accomplished by tbe Circle during the last seven years, from which the following interesting para graphs are taken, viz: I thought perhaps a abort report just as a review of tbe work tioce I wat elected treasurer, and tbe tame Fall wat elected president of this noble work, would be interesting. I opened the books for tbe Circle, then called "Tbe Blessed Ten," April 2, 1890. with 135.40 in tbe bank. We gave several entertainments. Oar object being a Summer home oa tbe beach, for tbe poor, Mr. Foster hearing of our desire, encour aged our work and on tbe 28th of March. 1890, gave us a deed of the land and drawing up a subscription paper headed it with $50.00. which paper Miss bue Lamming, Mr. Dick (who through tbe whole work was of tbe greatest pos slole help) and myself took from mill to mill, from store to store. The subscrip tion paper, which you can all see how successful we were, is on the table. If you wish to see it, with deeds, etc. The first payment was made July 12th, of $50 00; the fifth and last payment was made March 28th. 1891, of $24.0.27; mak ing in all $740.27. The name was the next question, What should we call it? The ques tion waa discussed lor some t me. Miss Agnes Daniel said she thought A Shelter, with some other name, rhen it was suggested "The Silver Crots." the emblem of our order, and so on tbe 15th of August, 1890. the "Shel ter of tbe Silver Cross" was solemnly dedicated by Dr. Strange. Tbe season was so sbort we did but little work, closing that year the last of September the only year we have kept it open so late. Oi course the first two or three years were, I might say. almost experimental: but those who have work. ed with us lor the past four or five years can see for themselves. There is much more I could say, but I ill not trespass longer on your time. except to give you as near as I can tbe expenses for the past seven years, end ing with tbe close of tbe season Septem ber 4.b, 1897. I will not go over tbe year s work, but give you the sum total. My bock is lor your inspection it you like. Tbe number of inmates I have not been able to keep a strict account of ex cept tbe past two years, which has been 578. and for tbe three previous years I am almost certain there were quite as many; We can count for tbe last five years louuu poor mothers witn tneir children who have been made happy and comfortable for a week or more. Tbe sewerage system and water works which were used at tbe Shelter during the past Summer were obtained with tbe following donations, viz: T. M. Emerson, $10; G H. Smithy $10; M.

BerentT eighth Blrtbday Over jTlfiji Tears a Mason Celebrated by St. John's IjOdge With 4 Beoeptlon and Bacquet. Yesterday marked the 78th birthday of one of Wilmington's most highly re spected citizens Rev. T. Page Ricaad. For over filty-thrce years ol his eventful life be has been a Mason, and last night at tbe lodge room of St. John's Lodge No. 1, A. F. and A. Masons a Masonic reception was tendered the venerable gentleman, which certainly testified love and esteem. The meeting was called to order by Mr. R. C. Merritt, W. M., who stated Ita purpose and also that the lodge had de cided to present Mr. Ricaad with a cer tificate of honor. Mr. E. S. Martin was called upon to present tbe certificate, which he did in a few able remarks, al luding to the life and character of Mr. Ricaud. Mr. Ricaad accepted the cer tificate in a short, but eloquent speech. Speeches were then made by Mr. C. H. Robinson, P. G. M., of Wilmington Lodge; Mr. W. M. Poisson, of St. John's Lodge; Mr. M. S. Willard, W. M., of Orient Lodge, and others, after which choice refreshments were served. The receptiqarlast night waa eminent ly fit and proper, inasmuch as it did tribute to a man honored alike in the Masonic fraternity and among the peo ple at large. Mr. Ricaud a life has been one of great nsifulness a blessing to his day and generatioa. He hat spent bit yeart and strength, in that noblest of c tilings, tbe preachlag ol the gospel. His declining years are sweetened by the affection of tour children, A. G. Ricaad, Esq.. and Mist Rosa Ricaud, of this city, Mr. T. P. Ricaud, Jr.. of Bennettsville, S. C. and Mrs, S. R. Farrior, of Kenans- ville. Clroae P.iun. The rain and wind of Tuesday played hovoc with tbe newly posted bills an nouncing the coming of Robinson & Franklin Bro.'s circus, for yesterday the bills bung in perfect shreds from the different boards and fences around. the city. This state of aflairs, bowever did not stay In existence long, for an other force of bands waa immediately sent out from the advertising car, and now new, but just as flaring bills, greet the eye. GIESCHEN GLAMEYER. Carriage of a Popnltr Toane Cooplo at 8t. Paal'a Iiotberaa Church. Last night at 8.80 o'clock Mr. Henry Gieschen and Miss Emma D C. Gla meyer stood at the marriage altar in St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran church and were made man and wife. The cere mony, which was conducted by Rev. K Boldt. pastor of the church, took place amid a brilliant and large gathering of friends and relatives cf the contracting parties. For many minutes before the time appointed for the nuptials to be celebrated every seat in the sacred edifice was occupied, but the occupants, however, bad a truly magnificent ight to feast their eyes upon before the arrival of the bridal party, for the inte rior of the church was aglow with many brilliant lights, which cast their shining rays upon artistic floral decorations with an enchanting and pleasing effect. Palms, ferns, chrysanthemums, etc., formed na ture's tribute to the decorations, and were artistically arrayed by a skillful artist. Eight thirty o'clock was the hour named for the marriage, and sharply at that time the organ, concealed behind a wall of rare flowers, responded to the killed touch of Mr. E. P. Boatwright and sent forth, clear and sweetly, the strains of Wagner's wedding march, which gave notice that tbe hap py event was about to take place. Up the center aisle came the ushers, Messrs. G. Henry Haar, Earnest Strunk, Jno. F. Rulfs and J. C, Haar, each attired in the conventional black and with a small white carnation displayed upon the lapsl of each coat. Next came the two bridesmaids, Misses Emma Hutaff and Elise Ortman, at tended upon by the two groomsmen. Messrs. Martin Schnibben and Will Rehder. Tbe bride, habited becoming ly in a handsome gown of white organ die, with orange blossom trimming and diamonds, and carrying a choice bunch oi bride roses, followed, accompanied by her lovely neice and maid of honor, Miss Minnie Glameyer, who was also attired in white organdie, but with pearl trimmings, and carrying a bouquet of bridesmaid roses. When the bride ana her maid oi honor arrived at the altar, the bridal party had grouped themselves gracefully, and tbe groom and his best man, Mr. Jno. Kack, both attired in the conventional black, then arrived, and together Mr. Henry Geiscben and Miss Emma D. C. Gla meyer were united in marriage. As the last vow was spoken tbe organ merrily pealed out Mendelssohn's wedding march, the bridal party left the church in carriages, and were soon at the resi dence of the groom, corner Front and Red Cress streets, where a reception was held. The supper table, lit up by brilliant lights, fairly groaned with good things, while the decorations were handsome. After many toasts, wishing Mr. and Mrs. Gieschen happiness and prosperity! had been made, Prof. Miller's orchestra gave several fine concert selections, and then merry dance music'and the terpsi chorien art was indulged, in and greatly enjoyed. Rev. Boldt conducted tbe services in Eoglish, butjafterwardsjmade a short ad dress in German. The bridemaids were each attired in white organdie, and carried a bunch of white and pink carnations prettily in termingled with each other. Mr. and Mrs. Gieschen were the re cipients of numerous and elegant tokens of esteem from friends, and of love from relatives. The bride is tbe charming daughter of Mr. C. Glameyer of this city, and the groom, one of our most popular citizens. The HIbrrclin Sooiab'e. It is a proverbial saying, and truly so, that if you want to have a good time and spend an enjoyable evening, attend one of tbe sociables given by the Hiber nian Benevolent Society, and last night one of these pleasing entertainments was given in the society's hall, on Third street. Everything was done to make one have a good time, which.bowever.was Inevitable. Refreshments were served. and dsnctng was . indulged in until an early hour this mbrning. Tbe committee of arrangements who so successfully and properly attended to tbe arrangements and management of this delightful affair, was as follows : Messrs. Martin O'Brien, T. Quinlivan G.

It la Acythtna Bat Favorable For Mark Htnna. The Bepablioaot Alarmed. Richmond Dispatch. Washington, D. C, October 18. (S pecial .) S olici tor-General Richard s, who succeeded Hon. Holmes Conrad, is an Ohio man. He is familiarly dabbed "next to Mark Hanna, McKinley's right band man." He has just returned from Ohio, where be has been for the past ten days, doing mit stonary work for Hanna. Speaking of his visit to-day, Mr. Richard said that he was actually appalled at the apathy existing among tne Republicans in Ohio. It seems to be conceded that nearly all tbe big cities in the State will go Democratic, and the Republican lead ers are almost hopeless of good results from the farming element. There is no doubt now that the administration and the Republican leaders bere are through ly alarmed at tbe condition ot anairs in the Buckeye State, Tbe opinion grows stronger each day that Van Wyck, the Tammany candicate, will be elected in New York, and this also helps tbe Democratic chances in Ohio. Maryland is also counted upon to go Democratic, and with the certainty that Virginia will do so, there ia every indication that the McKinley administration will get a big black eye in November.
