AN ANTE-BELLUM DARKEY. "Orders of His Missus" Must Be Obey edIceman. An amusing trial and the only one in the police court yesterday was that of Henry Pigford, an old darkey of the ante-bellum period, charged with as saulting a young negro employed on an ice delivery wagon. "Uncle" Hen ry is a "chief dignitary" around the home of Col. Thomas Evans, nearly op posite the City Hall, on Third street Mrs. Evans told "Uncle" Henry a day or two ago that the colored iceman had been in the habit of coming up the front way to make the usual delivery and she wanted him hereafter to take the block and receive the ice ticket around at the back door. "Uncle" Henry urbanely bowed his under standing to his "missus" and all was serene until the iceman came around Wednesday afternoon as usual and started right in at, the front gate. "Uncle" Henry met him and being deaf and half-witted, the iceman could not explain before the old-time darkey had pasted him once or twice in the face and had started out with him. "The orders of de missus is boun' to be carried out, co't or no co't," he dis respectfully but honestly declared to the Mayor when arraigned yesterday. "Uncle" Henry was dicharged, of course. The entry was "on account j his mental condition." "THE GREAT EASTERN BAND." New Musical Organization Formed Last Night The Members.

He had lived rn Wilmington nearly all his life and for some years conducted a family grocery store on upper Dock street. He was a man of sterling character, a true Christian, honorable in all his dealings. with his fellow man. For 25 years he had been a member of the First Baptist church and was one of the mainstays of that congregation. He will be missed by a large number of people who were recipients of his sympathy and charity, for he was big hearted and generous to a fault Mr. Hanby was a veteran member of Stone wall Lodge No. 1, Knights of Pythias and of Cape Fear Camp United Confed erate Veterans. Mr. Hanby is survived by his wife and two sons, the last named being Mr. John R. Hanby, of this city, and Dr. Joseph D. Hanby, of Paris, Tex.

All Quiet in Troublesome District Last Night As to Management of Af fair and Race Feeling. i'V The police apprehend no further trouble as the result of the demonstra tion by negroes in the vicinity of Fifth and s Harnett streets Tuesday night The extra number of policemen assign ed to that district was reduced to nly three last night and it is expected that by to-day all necessity for precau tion will hav passed. The guns and ammunition provided at the City Hall Wednesday night in case of an emer gency were still there last night, but the police expected and had no use for them. The officers in the district re ported to headquarters this morning that everything in "Brooklyn" was as 'quietus a lamb;" even more so than ordinary. ., J There was a disposition on the parti of some yesterday 40 "believe -the. xe-i ports of the alfair exaggerated, - but I those who were present Tuesday night when the first excitement was precipl- tatad, saw the chief dash up to the City Hall in his buggy with thS" young man in mortal terror of his life and who accompanied the score of police who rushed over with riot guns and issue of $50,000 bonds for the improve pistols to the scene, take no stock In ment of the public highways of the this talk of exaggeration. The affair j was pretty serious and the situations has been handled exceedingly well. There are some who are disposed tp criticse the action of Chief Williams in not stopping his horse and firing Into was no alternative for the Commlssion the negroes who halted him, but as ers than to make a further transfer was stated in the first accounts of the J affair in these columns, the chief was not armed for such an emergency.. He had only a pistol and was responsible for the life or serious injury of a young man in the buggy beside him. He lost no time, however, in returning to the scene when he was prepared for the emergency and to guarantee safety to young Rivenbark, the object of the wrath of the blacks. The white feather was shown nowhere In the ex- citing events of that night. It should be said here also, now that the trouble is over, that the demonstra- tion was not countenaced by the best class of Wilmington's colored -citizens. A representative of the better class of the negro race came to the Star office yesterday to say that the best class of his people stood ready and willing even now to proceed upon any clue that would be furnished them to as- sist in everv wav Dossible the brineine of the guilty parties to justice. The statement was sincere and it may be out down as a fact that thS responsi- ble colored men of the community are! for peace and are opposed to strife. That they painfully regret the unfortu- nate affair of Tuesday night is plain from talks with leading members of the race since the trouble. But the police have the matter well in hand and are giving no heed to the wild re- ports that are brought to them of threatened summary vengeance either by one side or the pther ALDERMEN GET THEIR PAY.

Fortunately it. was arranged for an in- door affair, as the night was dismal and rainy, but the whole house and temporary -ballroom had the appear- ance of an Italian garden. A ioun- tain, statues in the niches, a marquee, trees, seats and beds of flowers car- ried out every detail and it reauired no effort of the imagination to believe one- self in the garden of some old Roman palace..
