waa plenty of room ; the people were

medium between the two waxslruek
asd everybody had a xood time. The
ehowa xrow better with ate and the
morality of them has been accepted
by the masses. The "Juniors" bid
fair to make a tremendous auecees of
the affair, despite all the objection
which they had to encounter at the
outset.

has not yet mads its appearance

which the ha Iter profit are aot so
Xeaerally used as at former carnivals.
Ia spite of the argument that 'It's all

picks up to any appreciable extent by
their presence "on pleasure bent" la a
question for the shop-keepers. The

that eome people from elsewhere are

Bemainlnx days of thla week, if the

a brilliant fireworks display at Ninth

gare the raised bill to his friend snd
told him If he would xt It changed
he ouid lend him the amount asked.
Marshall took the money to a Mr.
Borne, of Long Creek, Pender coun

Lembertson the silver except the
dollar he borrowed. Mr. Home, In
nocent of the fact that he was csrryf og

at once detected the crude work of the
artist and Informed Mr. Borne that
the note was raised. Mr. Home then

magnificent costumes and gorgeous

large and bubbling over wilhlaugha

Even the players themselves must
bsve found it difficult to anppress a
laugh or repress a smile at the various
altaationa which developed during the
action of the play.
Miss Lillian Durham, as "Lady

TERRY CASE ARGUED.
No Decision Yet as to the , De
fendant's Motion for Change
of Venue.
IN THE SUPERIOR COURT.
NeS'SsIl Is Csss si Robblaa Ataisat the
CaroIIas Cestral Damixea Aaked
for lajary of Shade Tree-Other
Proceedlata Yeaterday.
Upon further argument and addi
tional affidavits heard yeaterday. Judge
Brown will probably announce in the
Superior Court to-day whether be
will grant a change of venue or allow
a continuance or the case of S. Hill
Terry, charged with the murder of his
son In-law, Bland, fifteen days ago.
From hia decision either In the mat
ter of removal or continuance, there la
no anneal and nalurallv much Interest
lafelt lathe outcome. Popular opinion
la .well-informed clrclsjr Is that SI
Judge Brown does notxrant .a change
of venue, he will continue threase
until the term beglnnlnx " Novem
ber 80th; moat probably . he will
do the latter. His Honor intimated
as much yesterday when he aaked
Mr. Maraden Bellamy, of coun-
eel ror defence, if the caae were con
tinued until November, would that be
satisfactory. Mr. Bellamy answered
la the negative. Attornera for the
State think that In caae of removal,
Judge Brown would favor Duplin aa
the county ror trial. It la also learned
that Terry's relatlvea would prefer
that the trial of the cause would go to
Brunswick or Pender county, as that
would obviate heavy expenses In the
way of travelling, etc.
When court met yeaterday morning
st 10 o'clock, the case was called up
and counsel for the State aaked a little
more time to prepare aa answer to de
fendant's affidavits or the afternoon
before. Judge Brown granted until
noon and the case was again called ap
at 1 o'clock, the argument continuing
until after P. M. David J. Lewis,
Esq., oi Whiteviile, joined the prose
cation snd all other attorneya were
preeeat. Solicitor Daffy said the prose
cution had a few affidavlta tending to
ahow that there was absolutely no
cause for chsnge of venue and that he
felt confident Terry could get aa fair a
trial In New Hanover aa would be gif en
anywhere In the State. He had alwaya
found thla to be a law-abiding com
munity. The affidavlta were flrat read

duly sworn aay each for himaelf : That
he I a resident of the city of WUminx
ton insald county. Thst sffisnts are
brothers of the deceased Gtnaad.
That they are well acquainted with the
def endant a H. Terry and have known
him for about tt years. That they are
SSmed and tgU Ih. Wead

"iTl-t f,fiid cs xena. That the
II u "-wy
affiants hsve frequently heard the kill
ing of the said Geo. T. Bland by the
defendant discussed, and from what
they have heard they are of the opin
ion and believe that the defendant
can get a fair trial in aald county That
the prejudice which, defendant alleges
in his affidavit exists sgslnat him in
said county is not such as to render
sny honorable man or duly qualified
iuror Incapable of giving the defend
ant a fair and Impartial trial in said
county and that auch prejudice does
not exist to the extent the oeienn
ant claims, aa affiants are inform
ed and believe. That the statements
and editorial, allegations and as
sertions which defendant claims
were in the newspspers of the city of
Wllmlnetou were not such, aa affiants
sre informed and believe, to render
any duly qualified juror of aald county,-who
may have read the aame, unfit
to act as a juror, aad would not create
in his heart and mind a prejudice that
would prevent him from giving de
fendant a fair and impartial trial after
hearing the aworn testimony... Affiants
further state that some of the friends
of the deceased Bland have aided to
some extent in the prosecution of the
defendant, or rather in the trial of this
cause, but that said aid was given not
for the purpose of preventing defend
ant from getting -a fair and impar
tiat trial, but on the contrary to aid
the honorable Solicitor in finding out
the whole truth of this matter, that all
the fasts might be brought before the
court and jury and justice be meted
out, and that the . State and defendant
should have a fair and Impartial trial.
"Affiants sre- informed and believe
snd so allege that the friends of the
deceased have made no threats against
any person who may be a witness
either for or against the defendant,
to keep him from testifying in this
case and that the friends of the de
ceased have no desire to suppress any
part of the truth in this matter, but
on the contrary desire that the whole
trnth ahall be brought out out and the
defendant have a fair and impartial
trial. That if any person or persona
have atated to defendant's counsel that
they were afraid of the friends of the
deceased and refused to answer quea-
tlona for that reason, affiant avers that
auch fear has no just grounds for its
origin and affiant believes that such
statements weie made by frlenda of
the defendant who desire that' the
whole truth of this matter ahall not
be made known. Affiants further
state the county of New Hanover is a
large county in population, having
some 30,000 inhabitants and many
citizens qualified to act aa jurors and
lhat they are to ba found tn said
county and in all psrts thereof many
persons who when properly question
ed by the honorable court as to their
competency to serve ss jurors in this
matter will be found to be competent
jurors and would give the defendant
a fair and impartial trial and would
not be biased by any rumor they may
have heard or any newspaper
statements they may have read.
Affiants further state they, as
brothers of the deceased, desire that
the defendant ahall have a fair and
Impartial trial In this matter where
ever the aame be tried.
