The Celebration Yesterday Was Accompanied . by Full Meas- gs'mtjbl Suecess. !" ORATION BY COL VVADDELL. He Spoke Oi a Uve Ssbject to as later- ested PeopleYtrieBs Atkletlc Con- tests Second Reglmest Band ' :w B Excarsloa Last Nli&t l': The last of a series of three public celebrations at Southport within the past year was the very elaborate ob servance of Labor Day yesterday by the people of that enterprising town. and upwards of two thousand visitors, who crathered there from Wilmington and all other contiffuoui points as their guests upon the occasion. The num ber of those who went down, from this city alone was one thousand and by the time 1 the county delegations reached the town the streets were teeming with people. The celebration was in every, sense a suecess and the. 8outhport people are receiving de served praise for their enterprise in ar ranging the event Fully three thousand people were in the street parade,-which formed on the garrison at 11 A. M., and marched to . Franklin Square to inspiring strains of music from the South port Ctornet Band. After scrip ture reading . and a very fervent prayer by - the Bev. E. J. Edwards, Acting Mayor E. N. Cranmer hospit ably, welcomed the enthusiastic throng of visitors. CoL A. ML WaddelL orator of the day, was then introduced in exceedingly graceful language by Robert W. Davis, Esq., one of the; leading members of the Southport bar and a very entertaining speaker. CoL Waddell was welcomed with loud and prolonged applause and was iitened to with great attention and profit. His general theme was labor and capital and this all absorbing topic was treated in a masterly man ner. During the latter part of his dis course he began to generalize and spoke along industrial lines " in the most en tertaining way. Ool .Waddell's very able speech concluded the morning's exercises and the afternoon contests opened with a tug of war between teams from the Wilmington Division, Naval Reserves, and the city of Southport.- Southport was the winner in the contest. The next event pole vaulting and greased pole climbing was won by Tom Pad rick. The prise for the 100 yards dash was won by James Craig.. The stand ing broad jump contest was won by 8. K. Eure and his distance was ten feet The running broad jump was won by Private . Griggs, of Fort Cas well., His distance was 17 feet, 9 inches. The running high jump was won toy C A. Montgomery and the standing high jump by S. ML Eure, the latter's record having been S feet, eight inches. The baseball game on the garrison was between picked teams from Southport and was close and in teresting. -- The basket ball game between the Wilmington Naval Reserves and the Boys' Brigade for the championship cup was won by the Boys' Brigade in a score of 15 to 6. The teams lined-up' as follows: Brigade Dozier and Irving, for wards; Davis, centre; Price and Peck, guards. Reserves Lane and Momss, for wards; Murphy and Scott, - guards; LeGwin, centre. The game of basket ball practically ended the afternoon events, with the exception of a very spirited barrel race in which S. Davis was the winner. The twilight concert by the South- port band and the amateur minstrel show at 7:30 o'clock provided early evening entertainment for all, and at 8:48 the Second Regiment Band, of Wilmington, gave a delightful open air concert on the square, during the progress of which the following pro gramme was rendered: 1 Tenth Regiment March, (llall.j "The Lass I Love" (from Garratt O'Magh.) (Mackie.) , . , r 3 A uuncn oi uiac Denies (Holzman.) 4 Uhilian uance. 5 "The Man Behind the guns.1! (Sousa:) AU March.", (8eouton.) 7 "inxie." The band went down on a special trip of the steamer Wilmington; leav ing the city at 6 P. M. and a most en joyable evening was spent. The or ganization was eighteen memoers strong and in the absence of "Prof. S. A-Schlossthe band was excellently led by Mr, E. H. Munson. Prof. Hol- lowbush, of Hollowbush's urcnestra, accompanied them and added much to the success of. the trip. ? 1 '--;t v; V i - The returning party from South port reached the city last night on the steamers Compton . and Wilmington after aday of ' delightful recreation and. pleasure. - ' iiafli nf Voanreii Soo. ?

The local cranks and crankerinas are much interested in the success or fail ure of Stewart's debut in the Southern League Sunday at New Orleans, as the papers stated that he would likely make his initial appearance in the box on that day. The game was won by New Orleans against Bel ma in a score of seven to five and .thejrooters have now turned their wondenhgs" if New Orleans would , win the game into hoping that Stewart really did pitch' it.

He spent a very restless night following the improvement in the afternoon and yesterday morning the reports were somewhat conflicting but encouraging, nevertheless. A telegram to Mr. W. H. Sprunt last night at 9:30 o'clock stated that while Laurence had undergone no radical change, the improvement Was still sustained and all were very hope ful of his ultimate recovery if there was no backset.

Executive Committee ' Rounding Matters for the Fair id I Great Shape, - HELD MEETING YESTERDAY. Low Railroad Rates Are Assured -Adver-tlsioi; Matter In Larje Qnsntitles On " the Way--AddltIon8l Features. ; j Subscription Canvass. ; The Elks' Carnival Executive Com mittee, which hav general control and supervision of the big - fair to be given in Wilmington fqr the week y begin ning October 14tb, had a most enthus iastic session at the Temple at Ce'clock starday ,storoojnduringj1 whi auniuoroi impomur uiHiLeis pertam. ing .to the fair were discussed t the prospects were found to be more en couraging and the sub-committees admonished to keep up the good work. In the matter of railroad rates, it was ascertained that a definite an nouncement would be forthcoming in a few days but that in the meantime assurances had been had that the very essential inducement of low fares would be forthcoming. The rate is expected to be one fare for the round trip or approximately one and a half cents per mile.' This. inducement on the part of the railroads will no doubt attract large crowds. A telegram was received from Bus iness Manager V. D. Levitt, of the Bostock-Ferari Shows, saying that 12, 000 sheets of lithographic advertising matter would be forwarded at once from Dayton, Ohio. Advices were also had that 15,000 carnival buttons for advertising pur poses would reach here this week. The St. Louis Confetti Company also notified the committee that 10,000 bags of confetti would be shipped at' once. The committee to. solicit subscrip tions will meet at the Temple at 4 o'clock this afternoon? and the city will be mapped ' into districts for a thorough canvass, beginning tomor row morning. During the progress of the meeting yesterday afternoon two additional committees were named to begin work at once. They are as follows: . Souvenir Programme Committee W. L. DeBosset, Jr., (chairman) Jno. J. Fowler, Jno. B. ' Turrentine, Jr., Robert Buark and W. F. Robertson. Country Store Committee James F.Woolvin (chairman), W. A. French, Jr., F. P. Turrentine, H. D. Springer, H. EL Croswell, A. S. Williams and Ben j. BelL The souvenir programme committee s appointed to prepare an elaborate programme of events fair week and to insur their liberal dhrtribnties. will be gotten up in the true Elk style "the best on earth" and will be from the presses in time for the fair. The country store committee is to ar range for a mammoth booth for the sale of various articles of merchandise. This feature is common to all fairs of the kind to be given in Wilmington and always proves entertaining and profitable. Winston, Greensboro and Charlotte Elks will be here in large delegations and travelling men say there is great interest in the fair every where. It ap pears now that nothing can come in the way of the carnival and success. It is hoped that the business men of the city will lend their support to the en terprise.
