JAbor Day next Monday! in Wil
mington will not be elaborately cele
brated but what this city has left un
done, South port will do and many
WQmingtonians will be there to par
ticipate in and enjoy a programme,
which has been carefully prepared on
a magnificent scale. There will be
some observance here Jn the way of
the closing of business houses and
offices but at Southport when business

parade, which will form on the Garri

in the lead, at 11 o'clock A. M., and

exercises will be in progress including
a tug of war participated in by Wil

ball between the crack teams of the
Boys' Brigade, of this City, and the

is a very, handsome silver cup which is
now on exhibition in Honnet's show
window, in this city. The inscription
on the cup is: "LAor Day.Southport.
N. C. Sept. 2nd, 1901. Basket Ball
Championship." A number of prizes
for cjher events have already been
sent down bv Mr. !Honnet and all of
them are of sufficient value and beauty
to excite the very best effort in the
contests. JThere will also be a number
of boat races and a baseball game du
ring the atternoon.
In the evening there will be a min
strel show by local talent in Franklin
gqtoare and an open air concert by the

PLEASANT BOATING PARTY.
Given by Mr. James S. Williams Compli
mentary to Visiting Yonng Ladles.
A very pleasant and highly enjoy
able boating party was given yester
day afternoon, -continuing into last
evening by Mr. James S. Williams on
the Marion in compliment to a number
of visiting young ladies. The boat left
the city at 2:80 o'clock and after a trip
to Southport and out to sea, the party
returned aboard by moonlight last
night, reaching the city at 9 o'clock. A
delightful lunch and refreshments
were served in the after cabin at 6:30
o'clock.
The party was very pleasantly chap
eroned by Mrs. H. J. Bucher, of Day-
tn Ohio, and consisted of the follow
ing: Misses Lillian Williams, Fremont, j single bullet having hit him.
The down-town section of the city
0
was thrown into a furor of excitement
last night about 11 o'clock by a mad
chase after a desperate negro with
pistol in hand, in which about a
dozen policemen and half a hundred
citizens participated. Fifteen or more
volleys were fired at the fleeing negro
until he was finally captured on Sec
oad, near Chesnut streets by Police
8ergeant C. S. Burnett and Patrolman
J. J. Moore.
The negro's name is Isaac Jones,
aged twenty . years, and he was
wanted by the officers for shooting
another negro under the steamer
Wilmington's shed earlier in the
niht. Notwithstanding the rapid and
rather indiscriminate firing and the
large number of people who gathered
in the street to join in the chase, no
body was hit by the flying bullets and
the negro was at length brought to
bay by Sergeant Burnett, who felled
him with a severe blow on the head
from his club. In falling, the negro
was also bruised about the knees. When
picked up a murderous looking revol
ver was found under him, which pre
viously he had brandished at different
times in the face of perhaps ten or fif
teen of his pursuers. This led to the fir
ing on the part of those who wanted his
capture. .The pistol was without a
single cartridge in the cylinder and
the negro bad merely been making a
"bluff," as he afterwards said at the
police station, at those who were after
him. The weapon is a Harrington &
Richardson manufacture and 88 calibre
in size. The police think that9after
the negro shot another early in the
night, he unloaded the weapon and
did not have an opportunity of refill
ing the chambers.
The negro lives at Navassa and came
down to the city on a freight train
last night, accompanied by his
brother, Edward Neal. The latter says
he left his brother at Ruth Hall and
he began drinking mean whiskey.
which led to all the trouble. The ne
gro shot early in the night is named
"Louis," a driver at the Palace Bakery.
He says he was shot by mistake. The
wound is just above the knee, the ball
having passed through the fleshy part
of his leg and glanced on the cobble
stones in such a way that it broke a'
window-light on the second floor of
Bennett's saloon across the street.
Policeman L. M. Smith arrested two
negroes on suspicion and carried them
to the Btation house, but neither was
identified by the negro as his assailant.
Garfield Chessam, negro porter at
Bennett's saloon, identified Jones
as the negro who did the shooting.
He was then walking up Market street,
near Bellamy's drug store, and Police
man Smith started for him. The negro
ran and the officer gave chase.' He
was soon joined by Policemen E. R.
Chad wick, J. J. Moore, Capt. Wil
liams, Sergeant Burnett and a crowd
of citizens, and the chase was fast and
furious. The negro went up Front
street and turned into Polvost's alley
and drew his pistol a savage looking
weapon which be flashed at any one
who came in his path. The crowd
chased him through to Water street,
thence up Water to Princess and down
the Custom House alley to the Masonic
Temple alley: thence to Front street
and down the Purcell alley toward
Second street. In the Purcell alley,
a negro baker attempted to halt him,
but Jones drew his pistol and the
baker did likewise. He fired five shots
at him without effect, and when he
had reached Second and Princess
streets he again brandished his weapon
and a fusilade of shots ensued.
The officers finally landed him fur
ther up the street, as stated, not a

The Royal Workers of the Sec
ond Advent Church will run an ex
cursion to Carolina Beach on the
steamer Wilmington to-day.
The suggestion made in the
Stab of yesterday that a night parade
of street cars, illuminated and deco
rated, be added to the attractions of
the Elk's carnival has been so favor
ably received that it is almost certain
of adoption.
The street cars have been reap
ing a harvest from the thousands of
excursionists ' who have visited Wil
mington tbisseason. In this connec
tion it may be of interest to state that
a well informed citizen rrceutly said
to a Stab representative that the street
railway was , one of the best paying
properties in Wilmington. ' i
