To the credit of the American and Japanese troops, be it soi l, they did very little. Those who did were probably giving the Orientals some practical object les sons in Western, Christian civiliza tion. And so was the looting in Tien Tain shameful. When (;v. Denby, of Indiana, topped over to McKinley, it wasn't the first time he flopped. He voted for McKinley four years ago, has leen a McKinley expansionist from the start, McKinley's minister for a time to China, one of McKinley's Philippine commissioners, and prac tically a Republican for the past six Jears. It i3 3aid that there are in Cuba 'VU heads of households who have registered at the Spanish consullates a3 desiring to remain Spanish sub jects, rather than become citizens of tuba. If this be so, these people who have such a preference for Span ish rnle should be invited to emi grate to some locality over which the Spanish flag flies. When the Chicago man makes up hia mind to play a practical joke he goes about in it dead earnest. One of these, a few days ago, fastened a wire to the Bhore, tied the other end to one of his arms, drove a stake in the water, hung his hat on the stake, left a note Baying "at the other end of the wire you will find a man," and then drowned himself.

Gov. Russell Refuses to Further Interfere in Archie Kin sauls' Case. THE EXECUTION AT CLINTON. Streanoos Efforts la Behalf of the Con demoed Murderer Have Been la Vain. The Haozio Will Be Private and losids Sampson's Jail. Archie Sinsauls, the condemned murderer from Sampson county, will hang at Clinton between the hours of 12 noon and 2 o'clock this afternoon. Despite strenuous efforts by his frjends and attorneys for a commuta tion of the sentence to life imprison ment by the Governor he will oa the gallows to-day pay the penalty for what is characterized as one of the most brutal murders ever com mitted in the history of Sampson county, however much it may have been mitigated by political prejudice and strife as is represented by the con demned mau's friends. Yesterday the Star telegraphed to its special correspondent at Raleigh to as certain if the Governor would interfere and thus give the condemned man, the only chance for his life. The re ply received last night says: "Gov ernor Russell refuses to further inter fere in the case of Archie Kinsauls and the execution will take place as appointed." From private sources it was learned yesterday that the gallows had been fixed inside the jail at Clinton and that the execution will be strictly pri vate. Kinsauls, it is said, is bearing up remarkably well under the strain and will meet death without a shudder. The case is one in which Wilming ton people take a very good deal of interest from the fact that Kinsauls has remained for safe keeping in the New Hanover county jail, until last Monday, since October 20th, 1899, nearly one year, and for the reason that his wife, faithful to her husband to the last, has sought aid on the streets here to procure services of at torneys in contesting every point for his liberty or for a commutation of his sentence even to life imprisonment. He was brought to the jail here from fear by the authorities that he would be liberated from the jail in Clinton, as he had been once in October, 1898, by his friends, prior to his capture the second time. Kinsauls is a white man, aged 33 years and weighs about 120 pounds. He is a man of more than the average intelligence and has not the slightest marks of a criminal upon his face. The crime for which he will hang this afternoon is the killing of J. C. Herring, a white man and a Populist weighing about 195 pounds. It is urged by Kinsauls that politics was at the bottom of the difficulty but Solicitor Duffy, who prosecuted the case, says this is a mistake. The murder occurred during the heated political campaign of 1898 and Herring was killed by the cutting of a knife in a horrible manner after a big speaking at beaman'a Cross Roads, October 27th of that year. Kinsauls made no effort to escape after the mur der and a few days later was ar rested at his home near Beaman's Cross Roads and committed to jail at Clin ton. On the night of December 20th, following, after remaining in jail two months, a party of his friends went to the jail and by force of arms liberated the prisoner. The jailor was subse quently tried, but not convicted of complicity in the release. After his liberation Kinsauls, it is said, armed himself, defied the law, and remained in the county for nine months. On Sunday, September 17th, 1899, he was captured by a posse, but not until he had received a wound from 28 buck shot in his body. He was convicted of the murder charged against him on Wednesday, October 18th, after a trial lasting nearly a week before Judge Henry R. Bryan. He was defended at the trial by Col. John D. Kerr, ex Con gressman John E. Fowler and F. R. Cooper, Esq., members of the Clinton bar. The prosecution was by Solicitor Rodolph Duffy, Geo. E. Butler and H. E. Faison, Esqrs. He was sentenced to be hanged on November 29th of last year. An ap peal was taken, but the Supreme Court refused to alter the judgment of the lower court and another date was set for the execution, but on account of the campaign then pending, he was given a respite until to-day, when he will be hanged. His conduct in the jail here was ex emplary and it has been believed all along that the Governor would grant him the commutation so eagerly sought for. Some express a fear that there will be trouble over the execution at Clinton to-day, but this is hardly prob able. m mm Marine Jottlflis. The Norwegian barque Arrarat cleared yesterday for Bowling, Scot land, with a cargo of rosin from the S. P. Shotter Company, which is repre sented here by Mr. Matt J. Heyer. The Norwegian barque Louise ar rived in port yesterday from Hamburg in ballast and will be loaded with naval stores by Messrs. Paterson, Downing & Co. Populist Iadirnilioi Meeting's. The Stab learns that the Populists are arranging for another "monster indignation meeting" at Dunn, N. C, September 22nd. And then after this one, the plan is to have another one, the "biggest of them all," at Raleigh. Of course Senator Butler and a few of the "other faithfol" will be the speakers. BEAUTIFUL CHURCH WEDDING Miss Mary Anne Gillican Happily United in Marriage to Mr. James K. Davis Yesterday Afternoon. Fifth Street Methodist Church was the scene of a beautiful wedding at 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon when Miss Mary Anne Gillican, daughter of Mrs. Annie B. Gillican, became the bride of Mr. James King Davis, of Jackson, Tenn. The ceremony was conducted by Rev. J. H. Hall, the pastor. The chancel was very attrac tively decorated with palms and crotens and the railing neatly dressed in bam boo and smilax. The handsome dec orations were made under the compe tent direction of Mr. C. F. W. Rehder. Mrs. Mattie Chasten presided at the organ and the party entered the church to the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march. The ushers, who were Messrs. James S. Williams, James Northam, N. E. Gillican, and J. S. Foster of Charleston,, entered first, two in the right aisle and two in the left. Miss Lavinia Gillican, sister of the bride and maid of honor, followed down the left aisle. She was beauti fully attired in a white organdie gown and wore a becoming hat made of the same material ud carried a bouquet of brides' roses. The bride, who wore a handsome tailor-made travelling suit of brown, with hat to match, and also carried a bouquet of brides' roses, passed down the opposite aisle leaning on the arm of her brother, Mr. E O. Gillican, of Augusta, who gave her away. The groom and his brother, Mr. Alfred Davis, of Charleston, who was best man, entered from the south side of the church and met the bride in front of the chancel, where the solemn rites of matrimony were im pressively performed. They retired from the church to the notes of Men delssohn's wedding .-rarch. Mr. and Mrs. Davis left at 3:45 o'clock on the W. C. and A. train for Charleston where they will be the guests of Mr. Davis' sister for a week. They will be tendered a formal recep tion in the "City by the Sea" to night From Charleston they will go to their future home at Jackson, Tenn. The bride is a very popular young lady of a very wide acquaintance and numbers her friends by the score. Mr. Davis, who was originally from Charleston, is a successful young busi ness man of Jackson, Tenn. They carry with them the best wishes of a host of friends. TREASURER (KEEN'S REPORT For the Month of August Approved by County Commissioners Yesterday. The report of County Treasurer H. McL. Green for the month of August, was approved by the Finance Committee of the Board of County Commissioners yesterday afternoon. It shows the following: Balance July account, general fund, $7,403 82. Col lectedSchedule B tax $1,099,96; back taxes $142.30; marriage licet ses $15.20; total $8,668.28.

After several days of "nothing do ing" in spirits of turpentine on the local market, there were sales at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon at 33 cents for machine made casks, the tone of the market being steady. There were, however, no transactions in country or irregular casks. There were sales of rosin yesterday at $L15$1.20 per barrel. The tone of the market is steady. Cotton, in sympathy with the New York market, advanced again yester day, the closing spot quotations on the Wilmington market being 9f cents for middling. The receipts thus far appear to be running ahead of corres ponding days last year when 53 cents was offered for middling. This condi tion is probably accounted for by the rush to market for the remunerative prices or for the reason that the . crop is opening and being gathered much faster in Wilmington's territory than last year. Attention, Democrats Democrats should not forget the call ofStite Chairman Simmons, Wm. J. Bryan, Adlai E. Stevenson, Jas. K. Jones, Wm. R. Hearst, Josephus Daniels, Julian 8. Carr, B. C. Beck with and E. Chambers Smith for a thorough organization in all the States. For North Carolina the plan is for all the White Supremacy clubs of 1896 to be re organized as Bryan and Steven son clubs. The dates fixed are Sep tember 14th (at night) for clubs in the towns and cities and September 15th (day or night) for clubs in the county precincts. Hanover Seaside Clnb.

Whitehead, Chairman of Com mittee, Hopefnl of Establishment. Mr. Z. W. Whitehead, editor of the Southern Milling and Lumber Jour nal, who was appointed chairman of a committee at the recent meeting of the State Press Association at Asheville to inquire into the practicability of the establishment of a paper mill to be run under the auspices of the State Press Association and combat the evils aris ing from the paper trust, talks very hopefully of prospects for seeing the project materialized and that very soon. He is in correspondence with several experienced paper manufac turers with reference to the proposed establishment of a paper mill and thinks that two of the number will take half of the $75,000 stock neces sary to build and equip a modern fac tory of the kind needed. General Julian S. Carr has signified his intention of taking $10,000 stock in the enterprise and Mr. Whitehead is of the opinion that the remaining $27,500 can be easily raised by the newspaper men of the State, provided the matter is pushed at ence. Besides Mr. Whitehead, other mem bers of the committee are Messrs. W. C. Dowd, of the Charlotte News, and J. B. Whitaker, of the Winston Sen tinel. YACHTS SAIL TO-MORROW. "Lord Cup" Will Be Contested in a New Series of Races Bright Prospects. Up to late yesterday afternoon it had not been ascertained exactly what yachts will enter the regatta of the Carolina Yacht Club Saturday after noon, bat a member of the regatta committee said he thought the pros pects for a large number of entries and a good race are very bright. The race will be especially signifi cant and will create considerable in terest from the fact that it will be the beginning of another series of three races in which the "Lord Cup" will be contested for. The stipulation is that the boat winning two out of three races shall be entitled to the cup, and as no boat won two races in the last series, closing with the regatta sailed on the Fourth of July, the cup will be contested for in another, series. The Champion Flag will be awarded as usual. The race will begin at 4.30 o'clock to-morrow afternoon from the club wharf. With a high tide and the pre vailing northeast winds which have been blowing for the past few days, there is eveiy indication of an un usually interesting regatta. THE COUNTY SCHOOLS.

McFadden's Flats, a three act specta cular farce, was presented at the Opera House last night to a large audience, and was thoroughly enjoyed judging from the applause received. The kids "Alex," Bobby Balston; "George," Jerry Sullivan, proved themselvel equal to the occasion and kept the crowd laughing almost con tinously. Harry Watson as "Weary Willie" took his part well and deserves special mention. His feats on the bicycle were above the average. John Price as "Tim McFadden" and Jacob Bumgartner the rival candidates were fair. Some of the specialties were good, while others were poor and should be adversely criticised. Taking the show in its entirety, it was considered good and proved itself a well worth wit nessing again. Leaves for Milwaukee. Mr. J. R. Davis will leave to-day for Milwaukee to attend the Supreme Council, Improved Order of Red Men, which meets in that city next week. Mr. Davis will go as a Great Repre sentative from the Great Council of North Carolina, to which position he was elected at the meeting of Red Men of North Carolina in this city last Summer.

TO RETAIN BUOYS. Chamber of Commerce May Ask Abandonment fof the Light House Bosrd Order. AS TO FRYINh PAN SLUE. Informal Meeting o a Number of Mem bers Talked! Over Matter and Re ferred It to Committee; on Har bor, Shipping, Commerce. The regular monthly meeting of the Wilmington Chaihber of Commerce was not held ; yesterday 'afternoon as appointed on account of the lack of a quorum. It is probable! that a called meeting will be held some time dur ing tho present mjnth to, consider the regular routine oij business aad hear the reports of outstanding commit tees. 14 ! The only matter brought to the at tention of those present yesterday afternoon was the removal of two buoys marking the slue across Fry ing Pan should, which jbas been or dered by the Lifft House Board and which marine! men say will work to the detriment of ;small coasting ves sels trading: iat . Vilmington's port. The order fonj renioval was published in the Stab several days ago, and is signed, by order!; of the Board, by John A. Rodgers; commander, TJ. S. Inspector, Siith (District. The time specified for th j-cmovl by Govern ment authorities ds on or about Sep tember 20th.; The matter was re ferred to the Harbor, Shipping and Commerce Comjnittee,5 which con sists Qf Messrs. :H. G.i Smallbones, Jas. H. Chadbourn, Jr., and Capt. E. W. VanCourt jLucasi In speaking to a Stab reporter yes terday of the; contemplated removal, Capt. Edgar D. Williams, harbor master at this port, said; that instead of destroying these two buoys, larger ones should be placed there and they would ba a great convenience and re sult in a considerable saving to the smaller class of vessels drawing from 8 to 9 feet of water and passing either up or down the poast. The present buoys have been there for a number of years and no conceivable cause for their removal can be assigned unless it is to relieve the buoy tender of the time required in keeping them in place, etc. On the5slue there is 12 feet depth on low watjer and instead of going aroupd Frying Pan Lightship, the smaller craft may now go through the slue and save a distance of from 16 to 20 miles. j 1 Capt. Williams said it is his purpose to circulate among Wilmington's busi ness men and mariners to day, a peti tion to the Light Hpuse jfeoard asking that tht remjoval ba not made.
