The manufacture of silk is a larger industry in this country than might be supposed. In 1890 there were 472 mills.

Wilmington, it. t - ALMOST AS BAD ; AS NEGRO MANLY. Negro Bishop Hood Writes an Infamous Article for a Negro Church Organ, i NEGRO DANCY INDORSES IT. "Why," Says the Negro Bishop, "Should It Be Any Lack of Self-Respecf in a Negro to Marry a Person of the White Race if That Person Is His Equal?" The A. M. E. . Zioh Church: Quar terly is a periodical published in the interest of ,the African Mithodist Episcopal Church. John . C. Dancy, the negro Collector of the port of Wilmington, is sole editor of the Quarterly, and it is editorially stated in that publication that it prints only such communi cations as the editor (Dacv) in dorses. These facts were Obtained from Greensboro by telegraph for the Stab, in order that the negro Dancy's position might be thoroughly under stood in connection with the infamous article which we reproduce " below from the Greensboro Record. It con sists of extracts from a communica tion written for the Quarterly by the negro Bishop Hood, and indorsed by the sole editor, the negro Dancy. Let every white man read : "Senator Pritchard says John C. Dancy is not in favor of intermar riage. "Here are some extracts from an Particle in the A. M. E. Zior. Church Quarterly. Read them and S3e : "Hundreds of white men said they would die before they would walk up to the polls and vote with negroes, but they do and live. Scores sf white congregations have listened with sat isfaction to negro preachers who a few years ago would have , scarcely been tolerated in the gallery. "It is no strange thing for a colored gentleman to dine and be entertained in the best white families. "Colored students go to Yale and Harvard, Princeton and the University of Pennsylvania, and if they stand well in their studies, or athletic sports or both, become the favorites of their classes, sometimes visit the families of their fellow students, and a", all the alumni dinners and class suppers take their places as anyone else, and these are social relations. Now.if these won derful changes have and are taking place on both sides, and the two races are daily drawn into closer contact under favorable circumstances, why should it be any lack of self-respect in a negro to marry a person of the white race, if that person is his equal? or any repugnance on the pert of the other, if the negro is worthy? and if now there are found white ladies suf ficiently true to their own hearts to brave the social ostracism, of their own people and some negro gentle men with sufficient manhocd to do as they please and get mamed, what may we naturally expect when the condition of the one and attitude of the other will have so changed as to bring them upon the same financial, educational and social level? Is not our friend's conclusion too sweeping when he says 'no elevation or free dom will produce an admixture of race?' " "Let the negro- become rich and cul tured and the charms of the brown daughters of the sun will be as great for the Caucasian as those of his own race. "True men and true women of sense under proper conditions find each other's real worth in the affections, the heart, the soul, and not in the color of the skin. "Desdemona will love Othello, though he be a dusky Moor, and her father object, and Romeo will cling to Juliet, notwithstanding the hatred be tween the families, Shakespeare knew human nature, and these creations of his brain find there realities in practi cal life every day. If all the things that have occurred in the personal his tories of individuals could be printed, the sentiments that have lied in the breasts of hundreds of men md women of the two races, which have been stifled down by prejudice, could be known, and the emotions that have been awakened in their learts, that have been crushed out because of pop ular feeling, could have "iaken their natural course, we would find that the races are even now much nearer each other than many suppose.'" TAYLOR'S BAZAAR OPENING. Ladies of Wilmington Invited to Call Next Thursday and Friday. Mrs. Taylor and daughter, Miss Hat- tie, who have" been in New York and other cities North the past several weeks making: a study of the latest stvles in millinery, have returned and Taylor's Bazaar announces this morning that their grand- Fall open ing will be on Thursday and Friday of this week (October 13tb. and 14th). And an invitation is extended to the Tadies of Wilmington and surround- ins country to call durin j those two days and inspect the Bazaar's display of the latest creations in tie millinery art. The marked success which has attended openings at Taylor's Bazaar during past seasons warrants the pre diction that the opening will be well worth seeing. Dr. Blackwell Here. Rev. Calvin S. Blackwell, D. D., the new pastor of the jTirst Baptist Church, arrived in the cisy yesterday and is the guest of Mr. J. W. Nor wood on Market street between Ninth and Tenth. As previously announced, his first sermon as pastor will be preached at 11 A. M. to-day. He will also occupy the pulpit at ,8 Jr. M. Members Urged to Attend.

Chairman of New Hanover Republican Executive" Committee Believed to Have Ordered Winchesters. The Stab has known for several days of an effort on the part of certain negroes in this city to procure Win chester 16-shot rifles from the Win chester Arms Company, of New J ersey, and of a correspondence which ensued between the Odell Hardware Company, of Greensboro, and the negroes, and the same firm and certain prominent citizens of this city, which has debarred the negroes, at least from securing arms from the Winchester Company or the Odell Company, their agents for North Carolina. The negroes had first applied to tbe Winchester Arms Co., for prices and the matter was referred to the Odell Co., who in turn" wrote thei negroes for a more full statement of what they wanted, and later, having their sut picions aroused by the answer received from the negroes, wrote to Messrs. W. E. Worth andM. W. Jacobi, prominent citizens of this city, who advised the Odell Co. to not fill the order as it was evident that the guns were wanted to arm negroes in case they should desire to create trouble with the white people on or before election day. Yesterday's Raleigh Post published the letter which the Odell Company received, giving particulars as to the information the negroes wanted as to the guns. The letter is as follows : "Wilmington, N. C, Sept. 27. "Odell Hardicare Company: "Your to hand. I ist want to what can I get 12 38-cal. guns with the priv- elih of 25. Sixteen nooters twelve sz and twelve 38. You need not bee on easy when we order your goods we will send you a check for tne amount charged we will await your answer. Respectfully, "Wm. Lee, "Care M. H. McAllister. "504 S 5 Church."' The Post alsa published the follow ing letter from Iredell Meares, Esq., of this city, in response to a telegram of inquiry from Raleigh, to-wit: "Wilmington, N. Q., Oct. 6. "Have personally investigated the matter. William Lee is supposed to be cover for John William Lee, who is the negro chairman of the Repub lican Executive Uommittee. M-cAiiis-ter is a negro living at the address named. Iredell Meaees WERE THEY HUNTING THE GUN? Burglars Enter Mr. Bernice C. Moore's Room at Bunting's Drug Store. Friday night the bedroom of Bernice C. Moore, at Mr. J. Hicks Bunting s drug store, over the railroad, at 901 North Fourth street, was broken open by some unknown parties and the apartment literally ransacked. The drug store was not entered. Mr. Moore is clerk in the drug store and was spending the night with a friend and the depredation was not discovered until he returned to the store yesterday morning. He- has reason to believe that the robbers were negroes and "that they were after a Winchester rifle which he usually keeps between the matresses on his bed. However, he had the gun with him that night and they failed to find it. Nothing of especial value was taken from the room. The bed was torn completely up and cover and matresses scattered. It is thought that the work of entering and the search for the gun were directed by some one thoroughly familiar with the place. TWO CASES YESTERDAY. This Was the Number of Offenders Be fore Justice Fowler's Court. Son Loftin, charged with assault and battery, was before Justice Fow ler yesterday for a hearing. It devel oped from the evidence that the object of "Son's" wrath was Dandy Johnson, and that the cause of his anger was that Dandy had called his father a liar. "Son" defended the veracity of his father by hitting Dandy with his fist in true Peter Jackson style. J us- tice Fowler discharged him upon pay ment of the costs. Both parties are colored. Ed Haywood, also colored, got him self into a snap by the promiscuous handling of a pistol. He was exhibit ing his pistol to several friends on dif ferent occasions yesterday, until Dep uty Sheriff Sasser got on to him and brought him before the court. In de fault of $50 bond he was sent to jail. QAYLORD'S MILLINERY OPENING. Miss Brown Back from the North A 'Splendid Stock Purchased. In this morning's Star Mr. George O.

Yesterday afternoon at 4.30 o'clock there assembled in "Shubert Hall," Miss Cannie Chasen's cozy studio at her home on Red Cross street, quite a company of Wilmington's best mu sicians and music enthusiasts.

During the fall and winter Miss Chasen will give recitals similar to that of yesterday every Saturday afternoon. From time to time differ ent members of Miss Chasen's wide circle of friends will be invited to share the pleasures of these occasions. As the Star has previously an- nouncedihe Wilmington Musical As sociation will hold their first general meeting for rehearsals since June to morrow night, ine place or meet ing will be the Y. M. C.

The box sheet opens at Gerken's to-morrow morning. Miss Norma Foster, for whose bene - fit the delightful concert was given in the Y. M. C. A. auditorium about two weeks ago,' leaves this morning for Boston, where she will enter the New England Conservatory of Music, the foremost conservatory on this conti nent and the peer of any in Europe. Miss Foster will, thanks to the patron age of her many friends in Wilming ton,, complete the violin music course prescribed by this institution, be sides taking other specialties. She will be sadly missed in musical circles here during her absence, but her home-coming will be all the more pleasant, for she will have perfected herself in that branch of musical studies for which she shows so much talent, and. in which she has contribu ted so much to the success of innu merable music recitals and other func tions.
