Very respectfully. JONN B. WRIGHT. By W. H. EUer. AT THE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN. Dr. .R mith Preached a Special Ser mon to the Juniors. R :v. Dr. E. V. Smith, at the First Presbyterian church last night, preaci-ed the annual Thanksgiving sermon to the Greensboro Council No. 14, Junior Order United American Me chanics. A large congregation was present, the juniors attending in a body. Dr. Smith took for his text the third verse of Psalm Cxvii. : "The Lord hath done great things for us. whereof we are glad." His sermon was the result of much study and was educational, patriotic and inspiring. The sermon was eloquently and forci bly delivered, and the juniors are to be congratnlated on their selection of thi6 eloquent and able young divine to preach their annual sermon. Yesterday at Centenary . The retiring pastor, Rev. J. E. Gay, preached to an unusually large con gregation at Centenary yesterday. Ae has served that church acceptably for the past three years, and in the discretion of the bishop and his cabi net he is sent to Brevard street, Char lotte for the coming year. At the close of the sermon, yester day, Dr. E. L. Stamey made a few timely aud feeling' remarks, which, we feel sure, expresssed the sentiment of all present. It was equivalent to the passage of a verbal resolution of thanks to Mr. Gay, and appreciation of his faithful and efficient services as pastor. Rev. J. A. Bowles, son of Mr. D A. Bowles, of this city, preached to a large congregation at night. At West Market Yesterday. Rev. Dr. J. H. Weaver, who has closed four years of successful labor at West Market street church, preach ed to that congregation yesterday. It was not the good fortune of the writer to hear him, but his sermon yesterday is generally spoken of as one of the very best he has preached during his four years' ministry here. He leaves tomorrow for his new field at Salis bury. It has been during his pastor ate that the present handsome church building was erected. In that he leaves behind him a lasting monument to his faithful and untiring efforts at church building. This is the visible sign, and it is hoped the spiritual building has been -as great. The Minstrels Coming. On Friday December 2nd, one night only, the. Academy of Music will be occupied by Richards and Pringle's Rusco and Hollands Big Minstrel Fes tival. This company number over fifty peo ple, traveling in their own special train of cars; Their daily street pa rade is said to be the largest and most elaborate ever given with a minstrel company. The performance consists of the usual "First part" handsomely staged, with all new scenery and cos tume, new music, songs and witticisms. The olio is made up of twelve big acts which necessitates giving the perform ance without a single wait or drop of the curtain. The press speaks of them in the highest terms. Foul Play Suspected Weldon. N. C, Nov. 26 The oldest negro in Halifax county was Abram Carslarphew. He was 105 years old and voted the White man's ticket in the recent election. Last Monday he died and foul play is suspected. The white people of Faucett's township gave him decent bnrial and would not allow the negroes to throw even a shovel of dirt on the old man's grave, Changing Pastors. Rev. J. C.

Matter With Gov ernor Russell ? ECHOES OF WILMINGTON'S RIOT. Washington People Want to Know If There Will Be Anj Prosecu tionsHere All Is Serene. Special to the Telegram. Washington, Nov. 28 At the de partment of justice the officials dis credit the reports which have been in circulation for the past few days, thai prose-.'utions are contemplated in the case of the men who are responsible J for the driving out of Commissioner of Deed9 Bunting, from Wilmington, North Carolina. One of the officials was seen Saturday, and he disclaimed any knowledge of the contemplated prosecutions, and stated that if in dictments had been prepared, as has been said, he for one knew nothing about them. Attorney General Criggs himself disclaims any knowledge of the prosecutions, which leads to the belief that there is nothing in the state ments. There is said to be no doutin , the minds of the officials but that Bunting is a United States official, he being, it is said, an appointee of Jsdge Purnell, of the United States District Court of North Carolina. If there were to be any prosecutions in the case, the judge would be the one who ought to know, but from statements coiring from North Carolina it ap pears that he too is as much in the dark as the officials at Washington profess to be. Saturday a delegation of colored men, headed by Perry Carson, who has gained national fame in republi can national conventions as the "rep resentative" of the District of Colum bia, called at the white house with the intention of asking federal interfer ence in North and South Carolina. The delegation, however, owing to the absence of many of the members, did not present the protest to President McKinley. It is very doubtful any way had they sought the interview whether they would have gained an audience with President McKinley, as he is very busy with his congressional message just now. Mr. Page K. Ay res, a prominent and influential young business man of Statesville, North Carolina, has been in tfte city for several days on person al business, stopping at the Ebbitt House. Mr. Ayers expresses the opin ion that one of the first things which will be done by the state legislature will be the passage of a new election law. With the control of state affairs guaranteed to the intelligent element of the state, he says, that business will greatly improve and that the people will be as prosperous as in any state in the south. An item which will be of interest to the people of Greensboro, is clipped from the correspordence of the Marl boro (South Carolina) representative of the Charleston News- and Courier. It is to the effect that Mr. Toms, of Greensboro, has assumed control of the Marlboro graded schools in the place of the former superintendent, C. A. Graeser. The city Postoffice has at last moved into its handsome new quarters, at the corner of 11th street and Pennsylvania avenue, just opposite the Evening Star office. The first mail from the new of fice was delivered Sunday morning. Saturday night Washington had a taste of winter, heavy snow falling for about two hours, with the wind blow ing a gale, and the mercury taking a big jump downwards. 3now fell more or less, all day Saturday, but melted as soon as it reached the ground, until night, when it assumed almost the pro portions of a blizzard.

EUROPEAN NATIONS BITTER. They Resent American Acquisition Ol The Philippines Will Probably . Include The Carolines. By Gable To The Tklbgkam . Paris, Nov. 28 The joint peace com mission met this afternoon promptly at 2 o'clcok. The Spanish commis sioners immediately announced their acceptance of the American demands. The two commissions were in separate session all the morning. The American demands included the acquisition ot the Philippines and the Sulu group for twenty millions and it is understood the Americans will pur chase the Caroline group. The ques tion of the Cuban debt was left unset tled until the next meeting on Wednes day. The Spanish acceptance was made verbally, the written acceptance to be presented later. The Spanish com missioners are sad at being author ized by their government to reply that the American propositions are inad missible on legal principles, and that on the part of the Spanish all diplo matic resources have been exhausted and now the Spanish commission, is asked to accept or reject the American propositions. In 'accepting them Spain is inspired by reasons of patriotism and humanity, and to avoid the hor ror of war she resigns herself to the power of the victor. She accepts the offered conditions in order to conclude the treaty for peace. There is no denying that the whole of the European continent will bitterly resent the American acquisition of the Philipines. This sentiment is not con fined to the diplomats, but here in Pa ris the opinion is constantly heard ex pressed in the highest French society. Editor -Stead, who has just returned from a tour of France, Belgium, Ger many, Russia, Austria, Turkey and Italy, and who has seen the highest politicians in each country, and in some cases their rulers, said today: "An immense majority of Europeans are absolutely ignorant of what has happened. They neither know nor care what occurs on the other hemis phere, but those Europeans who read the newspapers which form public opinion, are practically unanimous in their opposition, and discredit the motives of the war." GERMANY'S RIGHT. Washington, Nov. 28 The German charge d' affairs spent an hour with Secretary Hay early this morning. There is great reticence as to the cause of his visit, but it is believed it rela ted to Germany's interest in the Sulu islands, as it is understood they claim the prior right to them.
