DUPUN DID ITSELF PROUD.
Democratic Majorities Railed From MI
to 878 BIf Renaloa oa Nov. 15th.
Special Star Correspondence
Kesansyillk, N. O., Nov. 7. The
canvassing board met here yesterday
and completed the count of the county
vote, which shows a Democratic ma
jority ranging from 681 to 878. C. 8.
(Jarr, Register of Deeds, led the ticket
with 1.6U4 votes, receiving a msionty
of 878. The majorities are as follows:
Walter Clark. 865: Chas. R Thomas.
865; Duffy, 828; Hicks (Senate). 875;
Carlton (House), 681; Wallace (Clerk).
803; Middleton (Sheriff), 859; Carr
(Kegisttr of Deeds), 878.
The Democrats earned precincts
which they had not carried since 1890.
Tbe Republicans carried upper Island
Creek and Bockfiah townships by 11
major. ty each, and Wolf scrape by 2.
The other precincts are all Democratic.
There was a complete landslide in
wbiteoak, which has been anti-Demo
cratic since 1890. 8miths' still stands
solid and is the banner precinct, only
fire Republican votes being cast and
oo scratching. A.11 the precincts did
well notwithstanding the fact that 444
Democrats remained at home and did
not vote. A full Democratic vote
would have given 1,200 majority.
Oa account of the prohibition ques
tion the anti-prohibitionists made a
vigorous fight on D. L. Carlton for
the House, but as chairman of the Ex
ecutive Committee and as candidate he
made a plucky fight and won many
friends for himself and Democracy.
The result is more than gratifying to
his friends and is a blow to the oppo
nents of Democracy.
There will be a big reunion of old
veterans here Nov. 15th, and every
body is invited to come and bring a
basket.

ceedings of Yesterday.
The case in the Superior Court
against Messrs. Robert H. and W. H.
Northrop, Jr., for an assault and bat
tery upon John H. Gore, Jr. Etq.,

not guilty after having been out only
a short time. In the additional case
against the same defendants for con-
apira .au toa-ooBomit aa- assault uprnt
the same complainant, a nol pros, was
entered. The case had occupied the
court since 11 A. M. the previous day
and was of much general interest on
account of the prominence of the par
ties concerned.
George Hogan, the white tramp ar
rested Wednesday night on the Caro
lina Central railroad yards for high
way robbery of Mr. Benj. L. Grant,
was the next defendant before the
court yesterday. A detective, giving
his name as Baldwin, testified that he
saw the robbery of the old man, made
the arrest and turned Hogan over to
an officer. Mr. Grant also testified as
to the occurrence and the jury was
not ten minutes In bringing In a ver
dict of guilty, whereupon Judge
Bryan sentenced the defendant to
eight years in the penitentiary. Later
Judge Bryan reduced the sen
tence to six years. The case is
an example of swift justice
for a grave offence. Hogan robbed
Mr. Grant Wednesday night. Thurs
day at noon, he was bound over to the
higher court by the Mayor and Friday
at noon he was sentenced to eight
years in the penitentiary for his
crime.
All cf the afternoon session of the
court was taken up in the trial of a
negro named Jim Towsend, charged
with throwing stones into an Atlantic
Coast Line excursion train, leaving
the city one night last Summer. Town-
send was represented by Messrs.
Brooke G. Empie and Herbert Mc
Clammy and Solicitor Duffy was as
sisted in the prosecution by Mr. Junius
Davis, A. C. L. attorney. After hear
ing the evidence, the jury promptly
returned a verdict of guilty and Judge
Bryan was entertaining a motion in
arrest of judgment made by defend
ant's counsel, when a recess was taken
until 10 A. M. to-day. Mr. Davis
asked time to prepare an answer to the
argument for arrest of judgment made
by the defendant's counsel.
Other proceedings which appear on
the clerk's docket yesterday are: John
Hurst, assault with deadly weapon,
not guilty; Matilda Smith and Hattie
Mitchell, charge of mayhem, amend
ed to assault and battery, and defend
ants sentenced to two months in jail

BEAUTIFUL WEDDINQ AT CURRIE.
Msrrisge of Miss Thyra Topping Lacss
to Dr. J. R. Thomson.
Special Star Correspondence.
Cuekie, N. C, Nov. 7. One of the
most fashionable and brilliant wed
dings that Pender has ever witnessed
took place at the hospitable home of
Dr. and Mrr. G. F. Lucas at Currie on
Wednesday, November 5th, high
noon.
The house, decorated with smilax,
Autumu leaves and chrysanthemums,
was a suitable bower for flower
nymphs. Even Georgia yielded of
her store of blossoms to grace tbe oc
casion. Before an altar of white chrysanthe
mums and smilax, kneeling under a
bell of white flowers, Miss Thyra Top
ping Lucas and Dr. James Randolph
Thomson were united in the holy
bond of matrimony by the Rev. V. H.
Starbuck with a most impressive ser
vice. Miss Mary Lucar, the bride's Bister,
was maid of honor and Mr. J. B.
Black best man. Little Inez Wooten,
fairy like in her childish beauty and
innocence, was ring bearer.
The bride wore a handsome gown
of white silk mulle, made with lace
and ribbon, and a veil draped with
carnations. She carried a bouquet of
white carnations and maiden-hair
ferns. The maid of honor was dressed
in white organdie and ribbon, and
carried a bouquet of pink carnations
and maiden-hair ferns. Tbe groom
and best man were attired in conven
tional black.
After the ceremony was over the
wedding party and guests were in
vited to a marriage feast, such as one
of this generation is seldom fortu
nate enough to partake of. The good
old fashioned dinner of roast turkey,
beef, chicken, ham, etc., with the
pie?, caker, fruit and ambrosia, sur;
passed the efforts of ye French chefs
and vied with those of the "old black
mammies of the kitchen before de
war." The table was tastily draped
with white flowers, green vines and
fruits.
The numerous and costly gifts testi
fied to the love and esteem in which
the bride and groom are held by their
friendr. Quite a large number of
guests from this and other Btates were
in attendance on this festive occasion.
Rev. J. A. Morehead, D. D. Here.
Rev. J. A. Morehead, D. D., and
family arrived in Wilmington last
evening and are the guests of Dr. G.
. Bernhelm. Dr. Morehead will
preach the sermon at the Reformation
services of St. Matthew's English
Lutheran church to-morrow at 11
'clock. The public is cordially in:
vited to hear him. Dr. Morehead was
for several years pastor of the English
Lutheran church of Richmond, Va.
Since then he has been the successful
president of the Lutheran Theological
Seminary at Charleston, S. O. He
traveled in Europe last Winter and
attended lectures at leading universi
ties of Germany. He is an able schol
ar and an eloquent preacher. His ser
mon to-morrow will be a treat for all
present.

WEEK OF CARNIVAL.
Rain Again Interfered With Mont
Pelee Eruption on the River
Last Night.
POSTPONED UNTIL TO-NIGHT.
Closing Day of the Fair Will Be Grandest
of Them All With Qood Weather
Already aa Assured Financial
Saccess Leave Sunday.
The weather Man could not have
sent along a dirtier or more disagree
able day for Carnival purposes than
yesterday turned out to be. Lower
ing clouds hung loosely in the ele
ments all day and it rained intermit
tently; sometimes persistently. It was
a day on-v which - avervbodv felt in-
'cllnecf to" "remain indoors and it was,
therefore, not a good season for the
Pythian fair, which had just reached
the hefghlh of its glory when rain
began to descend on the night pre
vious. Notwithstanding the rains, however,
there was much fun-making; visitors
continued to throng the streets and
most of the shows did a good business.
Early in the evening the Carnival
district was thronged, in the face of an
advisory warning from the Weather
Bureau that a northeaster was liable
to break over the city at any minute
and it required a good, heavy down
pour of cold rain to finally drive the
people to shelter.
"If this Carnival would keep up a
month," one gentleman said, "there
would be very little falling off in the
crowds each night." As a substantial
proof of what he said, he pointed to
Front and Market streets where, with
a cold, drizzling rain coming down on
them, the people literally packed all
the open space available and the mid
way shows in the vicinity.
With the rain came disappointment
bitter disappointment for both the
people and the fair management. The
Mont Pelee eruption had to again be
postponed. Every detail was ready
for the display. Manager Lay ton
and his men worked like beavers all
the afternoon and at nightfall every
thing was in readiness. But the rain
descended and at a hasty consultation
the committee decided best to post
pone the event. The display could
have taken place, but the damp atmos
phere and the rain would have spoiled
it and so the Committee and Manager
Lay ton thought best to postpone the
big event until the same hour to-night,
when it will come off "rain or shine."
It's no saving to the Committee or to
Manager Layton, for the material is
here and has to be paid for just the
same, but the fair management, after
its high claims, doesn't want to forfeit
the confidence of the people.
The weather forecast for North Car
olina is: "Fair Saturday and Sunday,
except rain on the coast; fresh north
east winds." That's not very en
couraging, but the prediction yester
day wss for fair weather, and may be
the reversed order of things will con
tinue to-day, which means fair weath
er. Tbe local forecast ior. W liming
mlngton and vicinity is encouraging,
and the Carnival management is
hoping for better things to-day.
It was not known last night until
the last minute 'that the eruption
would not take place, and the water
front, from Chesnut to Ann street,
was lined with people. The steamer
Wilmington, with festive Japanese
lanterns hanging from every deck,
was fired up and ready to take a party
out into the stream, and the steamer
Compton was likewise in readiness for
the same mission, but to no avail.
Housetops were covered with people
and every window with a view of
the river was utilized. At 8 o'clock
the postponement was announced
above the din by megaphone, but even
then the people reluctantly turned
their faces toward the tamer amuse
ments on the midway.
It's much like the cry of "wolf,"
but don't forget that the eruption
takes place to-night at 8 o'clock. No
change in the hour but a slight change
in the date.
The weather and the sickness of
Mr. Baldwin again prevented the bal
loon ascension yesterday, but it will
come off to-day as advertised unless
some insurmountable difficulty again
comes in the way. i
Manager Layton, of the Carnival
Co., Is a prince of good fellows and no
one is disappointed about the weather
more than he is. He says his patron
age in Wilmington haa been fine and
the Pythians say the same. They
have already cleared enough money
to handsomely furnish their new hall
and there's no doubt of the success of
the fair from every viewpoint. The
Parade Committee as the result of its
voting contest for Queen of the Carni
val will turn over several hundred
dollars into the Pythian exchequer
and Mr. John R. Turrentine, Jr., in
charge of the confetti department,
will do almost as well. Out of
20,000 bags he has only about
1,800 left and as the final battles
are placed on the programme for to
night, the supply is likely to run short.
The material should be bought early
to save disappointment. Proprietor
James F. Woolvln has also done well
with the Country Store and his only
trouble has been in keeping up his
stock. There's no danger of a bank
ruptcy case or him. Chairman Fish-
blate, of the Booth and Privilege com
mittee, has also done well and as chair
man of the Executive Committee he's
simply immense.
The Carnival closes to-night and the
shown leave to-morrow for Sumter,
S. O.; then to Florence and then to
Charleston. - - ' ' . - -

THE STATE'S THANKSGIVING.
Proclamation Issaed Yesterday By Gover
nor Aycock Corresponds as Usual
With tbe National Observance.
Special Star Telegram.
Raleigh, N. C, Nov. 7. Governor
Ay cock to-day issued a proclamation
designating Thursday, November 27tb,
as Thanksgiving Day. The preamble
is as follows: "The State has greatly
prospered during, the past year. In
the main our farmers made good crops
and received fair prices for them; the
manufacturers have reasonably suc
ceeded; labor has received just reward
for service, and the State has had
peace, quiet and good order. For all
these blessings we owe acknowledge
ment to the Lord. Things do not hap
pen, but the hand of God is in every
happiness that comes to our people. It
is appropriate that this Christian State
should acknowledge its obligations to
viod for the blessings it has enjoyed."
In conclusion the proclamation says:
"I urge all people to meet in their tq-
specuve places of worship and there
thank God for his manifold mercies
he has shown us, individually and as
a people, and ask his protection and
guidance in the future. I earnestly
recommend that' on this day our peo
ple shall give, as God has prospered
us, unto those needy ; particularly to
the widows and orphans."
