Special Meeting to Consider the Matter of Repairing tke Damsge Dose to the Clnb Honse by the Storm. By authority of the by-laws, special meeting of the Atlantic Yacht Club was called last night at 8:15 o'clock at the room of the Board of Audit and Finance, at the City Hall. There was a goodly attendance. Pres ident James F. Post and Secretary R D. Cronly being present President Post stated that the meet ing had been called to consider what should be done about the damage to the club house at Wrightsville Beach, so seriously damaged by the storm on the 31st of October. He stated what the condition of the house is, the storm having swept it off its foun dat'ons and left it partially wrecked on the beach, and invited suggestions as to what steps should be taken to protect the property for the present and subsequently what the nature of repairs should be. After discussion, it was the sense of the meeting that the condition of the club house and the nature of the re pairs necessary should be ascertained by experts, so that the club can take the proper steps in the matter. There upon, a motion was adopted that a special committee be appointed, coa sisting of Capt. E. W. Van C. Lucas, chief of the United States engineer corps; Mr. S. P. Adams, of the en gineer department of the Atlantic Coast Line; Mr. H. E. Boniti, the architect and Capt John H. Hanby, builder and contractor, all members of the club, for the purpose, jointly with the executive committee, of examin ing the condition of the club bouse and reporting back their recommenda tions to an adjourned meeting of the club. Upon suggestion of Capt T. D. Meares, the committee was requested to consider first, the cost of restoring the club house as near as possible to its condition prior to the storm; second, to report not only on the cost of repairing the house but to make an estimate of the cost of improvements to the building, including the addi tion of a second story and the exten sion or a platform from the club house to the railroad track, etc Preside nt Post stated that Mr. George R. French, president of the Wilming ton Seacoast Railway Company, in formed him that the railroad com pany, as soon as possible, will rebuild its track along the beach, and that from the Carolina Yacht Club house to the southern end of the beach the new track will .be run twenty-five or thirty feet nearer to the Banks chan nel, so as to give a straight track.. This, President Post said, would en able the Atlantic Yacht Club to move its club house farther back from the ocean without inter fering with the right of way of the rail road. It is understood that the pur pose of the railroad company is to build the track perfectly straight up and down the beach and that in order to do this some of the lowJand along the Banks channel will be filled ia. President Post requested that the members of the club, between now and the adjourned meeting, consider some plan for raising the funds necessary to repair or rebuild the club house. He stated that it had baen suggested that funds might be raised by reducing the initiation fee so as to increase the membership to 250, and he asked that this matter be thought over. Upon suggestion of Captain Meares, the members of the club were request ed to consider the best of three plans to raise funds, viz: First As to assessing the members an amount to be paid in monthly in stalments. Second As to increasing the mem bership. Third As to mortgaging the prop erty of the club Mr. R D. Cronly moved that when the meeting adjourns it shall do so till 8.15 P. M. next Thursday, November 16th, at the room of the Board "of Audit and Finance, to hear the report of the committee as to the condition of the property, to consider the best means of raising funds for repairs, and for the transaction of such other busi ness as is necessary, rne motion was adopted. The president urged that the full membership be present at the meeting at next Thursday might On motion, the meeting then ad journed. Sudden Death of Mrs. John Knight.

HARRISS, The Funeral Took Plnce Yesterday Morn lag at the First Presbyterisn Church Interment at Oakdale. The funeral of the lamented Mr. George Harriss, who departed this life on Thursday morning, took place yes terday morning at 10 30 o'clock at the First Presbyterian Church. The cor tege moved at 10.20 A. M. from the residence, 515 Princess street, headed by Plantagent Commandery,. No. 1, Knights Templar, marching by twos, and upon arrival at the church the Knights formed in open column from the sidewalk to the church. The funeral procession then passed through the ranks into the church, where was assembled a large number of relatives and friends of the departed. The Chamber of Commerce, of which the deceased had been a life long member, attended in a body. The solemn services were conducted by the Rev. Hay Watson Smith, and were opened with a feeling invoca tion. Miss Anna Sprunt the organist, played, and the singing was by a choir consisting of Mrs. W. L. Latta, so prano; Mrs. E. G. Woody, alto; Mr. C. H. Cooper, tenor, and Mr. H. K. Holden, basso. The first hymn was '"Rock of Ages" which was touching ly sung. Then followed scriptural reading from the Psalms and Revela tions, after which an earnest prayer was offered up by the officiating cler gyman. The choir then sang the hymn beginning, "Hark! Hark! My Soul, Angelic Songs Are Swelling," and while the last verse was being sung the funeral procession moved out from the church. A large cortege followed the remains to Oakdale cemetery where all that was mortal of one of Wilmington's most promi nent citizens was laid iu the tomb. The grave was covered with beautiful floral tributes. The pall bearers were as follows: Honorary, Col. John Wilder Atkin son, Col. F. W. Kerohner, Mr. James EL Chadbourn and Mr. Samuel North rop; active, Hon. John D. Bellamy, Dr. Thos. S. Burbank, E. K. Bryan. Esq., Messrs. Geo. W. Kidder, W. H. Northrop and H. P. West ESCAPED FROM CITY PRISON. Two Negroes Cfasrged With Implicstlon In theHsghes Murder Filed Their Wsy Out of the Gusrd House. Wm. Gilliam and Lee Blocker, two young colored men charged with com plicity in the murder of the old-Confederate soldier Hughes, who was beaten into insensibility during May of the present year and left to die in a box car at the "Y" of the Coast Line in the northeastern suburbs of the city, made good their escape from the city prison yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock and they have not since been recaptured. The negroes were confined in the inner corridor of the steel cells of the prison and gained their freedom by filing away the burr of an iron pinion which held in place a hasp, which fas tened to a staple on the outside by means of a heavy brass padlock. In some way unknown to the custodians of the prison the negroes secured an ordinary hand saw file and worked silently, probably for several days, until the pinion could be slipped out leaving the hasp to fall to one side, freeing the door to swing at ease upon its hinges. From the corridor of the prison proper the negroes made their way to the outer corridor, then into the basement of the City Hall and out the gate of the hall enclosure to the street Just as they gained the street several "trusties" who were sawing wood in the yard discovered them and notified the hall officers. Policeman B. R. King gave chase, but they eluded cap ture and went eastward up Chesnut street Gilliam was arrested several months ago, and besides being charged with implication in the Hughes murder, the particulars of which are well remem bered by Star readers, he was wanted as defendant in one of the numerous brass stealing cases which were prose cuted in the early part of the present year by the Atlantic Coast Line. He would without a doubt have been con victed of the latter charge. Blocker was captured upon the occa sion of the murder of the negro over a crap game in tne nouse oi sing" Nixon more recently, .and while the charge of gambling would probably have been preferred against him, he, too, was thought to have been one of the murderers of Hughes. Norwegian Barque Johanne. The wreck report of the Norwegian barque Johanne, in sand ballast from Barbadoes to Wilmington, which had such a rough experience with' the storm at the Cape Fear Quarantine Station, was yesterday filed at the Custom House by Capt M. Thorsen, master. The vessel is of wood; was built 26 years ago and is valued at $8,000. The estimated loss to the vessel is $1,500; insurance, $4,000. The Masonic Fair.
