Edison Projectoscope. All those who enjoyed the wonderful invention of the wizard Edison, 'The Projectoscope," -which was exhibited at our opera house last March, and those who did not have the opportunity at that time to see this wonderful in ventionwill no doubt be delighted to know that our opera house manage ment has booked the company for an other engagement here during the ses sion of the Southern Baptist Conven tion. This company has Edison's lat est machine, with many improvements over the one seen here two months ago, and has also an entirely new selection of pictures. Among the new pictures are exact reproductions of notable hap penings of the day, notably, the late inauguration of McKinley at Wash ington, and scenes from New York city life. This enterprise on the part of the opera house management as a means of entertainment for the great number of visitors to be here this week should be appreciated by large audiences. Prices 10, 20 and 30 cents. Homes for the Delegates to the Conven tion. In conversation With Colonel Walker Taylor last evening a Messenger repre sentative obtained information concern Ting the work done to secure homes for the delegates to the Southern Baptist convention. He stated that the cham ber of commerce had rendered j every aid in its power to the committee in charge of the Baptist convention, but he feared that many of our citizens have failed to grasp the idea that the convention is assembled here not by denominational invitation, but by the inyitatlon . i the city of Wlmington through its legally authorized bodies, namely: the board of aldermen and chamber of commerce. Such being a fact it is incumbent upon every citi zen who has the future wellfare of the citjy and as well its past reputation heart, to see that no stone is left un turned to provide homes for accredited delegates to this convention. We find that at this late hour there are yet fully seventy-five delegates who are our invitd guests still without homes These delegates will only be in thercity from Thursday until Tuesday morning and we feel that every home in this city should have one or more' of these guests. Below we give a number of delegates that the various denominations have "provided homes- for : Baptist churches 433 First Presbyterian.. 140 St Andrew's church , 24 St. f James Episcopal church 60 St. Paul's Lutheran church......... 25 Grace M. E. church. 80 Temple of Israel.. .............. 16 Fifth Street M. E. church 20 St. John's Episcopal church Second Advent church St. Paul P. E. church... St. Thomas Catholic church. . Market Street M. E. church Bladden Street M. E. church 2 Immanuel ............................ Congregation A fund has been raised in order to enable St. Thomas church to increase its number. Our people we feel sure, will appre ciate the convention and will entertain the guests "with their old time hearti ness. ' The .Rev. W. B. Oliver, Colonel Walk er Taylor, the chamber of commerce, and the various comjnittee's have from time to time appealed to our citizens to extend their hospiality, to the delegates. The Messenger now makes its appeal for the provision of seventy-five more homes that may be necessary. Churches Today. WHITE.

TEN CONVICTS FOR THE STATE PENITKXTIARY. Sixty-Flve Cases Tried by Jury During the Week, Besides About Fifteen Cases Otherwise Disposed Of Eleven Convicts for the Work House Report of the Grand Jury Court Adjourns. Pursuant to adjournment for recess on Friday evening, the circuit criminal court of New Haaover county met yes terday, Judge Sutton presiding. GRAND JURY REPORT, i The grand jury having completed its abors made the following report 'and was discharged: 'To His Honor Thomas H. Sutton, Judge of the First Criminal Circuit, the Grand Jury of the . April Term, 1897, would respectfully Ireport: "We have nassed unon 62 bills of in dictment and have found 52 true bills and 1 not true bills. We have also made four presentments. "The county home for the aged and infirm and the buildings and premises attached and surrounding nave Deen carefully examined. The condition of the inmates of the home has been in- fmired into and their treatment inves tigated. The premises around the home are clean and the garden bears evi dence of good work and proper super intendence. The home itself is auite neatly kept and otherwise is in reason ably good condition, though white washing of the rooms would contribute much to their appearance and add ereatlv to the comfort of the inmates. The kitchen especially needs the treat ment just referred to. For purposes or use and convenience though not now essentially necessary, we think there should be three drive pumps located on the stockade premises, behind the colored ward and in the asylum yard. In ereneral the natients express them selves contented with their food and with the treatment received from the keeper. Complaints of insufficiency of clothing we regard as measurably just and we suggest that this should be remedied. While neither the food nor its insufficiency at the times it is served, is just cause for complaint, we think that from noon of one day to 8 o'clock of the next is much too lng a period of abstinence from solid food and we recommend that such food, however light, shall in sufficient quan tity be furnished between the hours named, sav at or near sunset. As in dicated above we have been led by our investigation and inquiry to regard Mr Thomas Watson, the present keeper of the home, as a kind , and considerate superintendent and director and as faithful in the performance or the du ties laid upon him. "We have made due inquiry and in vestigation as to the management of the county jail and the condition of the building, and we find that the food is clean and of the proper character and we believe is Dronerlv served. The buildiner is kept as clean, probably, as is practicable, but we think the entire interior needs whitewashing. We re gard it as essential that the building should be properly ventilated, the foul air in the female ward being, in our oninion. exceedinerly unhealthful. "With regard to the court house we recommend that measures be taken to KPonTf more cleanliness in the halls, and on the balconies, and that more spittoons be purchased in order, in part, to effect this. "JOHN McLAURIN, "Foreman.?' THE DOCKET CLEANED UP. The court took up the remaining cases on the docket and disposed of them as follows: State vs. Robert Fennell, colored, car rying concealed deadly weapon, defend ant called and failed, judgment nisi. State vs. Alex Fuller, colored, injury to personal property, cutting the tire of Mr. Frank Turrentine's bicycle, mis trial. State vs. Isaac Carver, colored, aban donment of wife, not guilty. State vs. William Sclienck. colored, carrying concealed deadly weapon, ver dict not guilty. Edward Sharpless, colored, convicted of manslaughter for the killing of Sam Register, colored, and sentenced to a term of ten years in the penitentiary, was brought into court. His attorney, Marsden Bellamy, Esq., informed the court that Sharpless was 64 years old, and in view of his previous good char acter, entreated Judge Sutton to re duce the o& man's sentence, so that at least his term would not be more than would carry him beyond the allot ted time of man, "three-score years and ten." Judge Sutton told Sharpless that in recognition of his previous good character, showing what a good char acter is worth, he would reduce his sentence to seven years. RECRUITS FOR THE PENITEN TIARY, i Since the court convened at 10 o'clock on Monday last, the court tried 65 cases bv jury, besides otherwise dis posing of about fifteen cases.

The convocation of Wilmington met in St. Paul's chuch, Clinton, Thursday morning, April 29 th, 1897. This being the annual meeting, a larger number of the clergy were expected, but for va rious reasons could not come. The morning service was said by Rev. F. N. Skinner and Rev. T. M. N. George, the Rev. Stewart McQueen preaching the opehing sermon from the Acts of the Apostles, I, 3. L jt i j uwing to tne cnange oi scneuuie on the Clinton branch of the Wilmington and Weldon road, the Wilmington clergy did not reach Clinton "until after the hour appointed for the business meeting of the convocation, Thursday afternoon, and this meeting was post poned until Friday at 4 o'clock p. m. The evening service Thursday was said by Rev. Messrs. McQueen, Tolson and George, the Rev. Robert Strange preaching a strong, eloquent and prac tical sermon from Exodus, xx, 16. After the Litany service Friday morning, the Rev. Mr. George, of New Bern, read an essay on "The Need of Definite Christian Work in the Church for the Newly Confirmed." The essay ist, after showing the great need for such work, suggested some methods of supplying this need. In the discussion of the subject, which was participated in by all the clergy present, the per sonal experience of the speakers in dealing with this need, and the success or failure of their efforts were ex nlainpd. At the business meeting field in the afternoon, reports were read by v the treasurer and evangelist of the convo cation, a scale of assessments for the support of the evangelist was adopted, and various matters of routine business were acted on. Snow Hilt was selected as the place for the next meeting of convocation, to he held 'September 23, 1897. Rev. F. N. Skinner was re-elected secretary and treasurer. 'After the evening service, which was read by Rev. Mr. George and Rev. Dr. Strange, addresses on "The Nature and Force of the Apostolic Commis sion" were made by Rev. Mr. McQueen, of Goldsboro, Rev. Mr. Tolson and Rev, Mr. Wootten, of Wilmington. The ad dress of Rev. Mr. Tolson was by all who heard it spoken of as a masterful effort, presenting the subject clearly and lucidly and as fully as possible in the limited time allowed him. After this service the convocation ad journed. Harbor Master's Report. ; From the books of Captain E. D.
