Prior TO pronouucing the benediCtion
Bishop Coleman said he thought it was
fitting that some recognition of the death
of Charles Baird, who was so we'll idsnti-
fled with Wilmington's educational life
should be taken by the representative
gathering. Every one knew OF the inter-
est he took in the schools. The bishop
thought it fitting to recognize the worth
of Mr. Baird, and to assure his family OF
the sympathy Of the meeting. The fol
lowing resolution then was read and
adopted by a rising vote.
Resolved, That the presiding officer on
this occasion, His Honor, the mayor, be
requested on behalf of the citizens Of Will
mington, now assembled, TO assure the
family Of the late Charles Baird Of our
grateful appreciation of the valuable ser
vice which he has for many years rendered

of education, and of our hearty sympa.

Quelled by British Marines After
Killing Fifty Natives.
Boston, June 10.-Captain Lockhart.
of the British schooner Blomidion, at
this port from Antigua, reports that
few days before the Blomidion left
there, which was on May II, the mail
steamer from Montserrat brought ad-
vices of an uprising at that place, and
the commander of the British cruiser
lntrepedio, then at Antigua, immedi-
ately sent detachment of $50 marines
and three officers to quell the disturb
ance and capture the ringleaders.
Montserrat is governed by a British
officer. and has among its inhabitants
about rs white people. 1t appears that
the natives were operating illicit stills
in the mountains, and the governor
sent several officers to arrest the pro-
moters. The natives rebelled, assault
ing the governor and the officers, seri-
ously injuring several Of them, and
breaking the governors arm. On the
arrival Of the troops the natives still
resisted, and they were fired on by the
marines, about so natives being killed.
The ringleaders were afterward arrest
ed and taken back to Antigua, where
they will be tried. Montserrat is a
small island near Antigua.

The gallant fight put up by John Biggs,
in tho U. S. Court yesterday in behalf Of
his client Thomas S. Clark, Of Dover,
who is indicted for aiding and abetting
VIM. N. Boggs, has won him great praise.
Tho doughty little lawyer has fought
every inch Of the preliminary part of the
case and has set the court to hunting up
cases Of precedence on which to base his
decision In the controversy whether tho
District Attorney shall file bill OF par
ticulars as to the dates on which two of the
checks were drawn on the First National
Bank at Dover. In the argument, the
chief contention Of John Biggs, who rep
resented Clark, was relative to two checks
for $50 each, mentioned in the eighteenth,
twenty. first, twenty-eighth and thirty
third counts. Mr.. Biggs contends that
without these particulars, the defendant
would not be able to tell what charges he
would have to meet.

Tried to Enter the Magazine at Fort
st. Philip.
Atlanta, Ga, June 10.-An attempt
was made recently to enter the maya
zine at Fort st. Philip, on the Missis-
sippi, 65 miles below New Orleans. In
endeavoring to apprehend the two mis-
creants the sentinel, who challenged
them, was struck on the head by a
bar Of iron in the hands of a hidden
ally, and seriously injured. The news
of the affair has just become known.
About 2:30 on the morning of May
29 the sentinel on the parapet Of the
Tenth battery heard a suspicious noise
In the direction of the magazine, and on
creeping up to the house saw two men
trying to file the locks. He challenged
them, but they ran, and although fired
at managed to escape. one of the men
sending a shot through the sentry's
sleeve as he left. The sentinel pursued
the two men, and as he neared the
steps leading to the landing a third
man stepped out and struck him with
a bar of iron, telling him to the ground.
The guards, aroused by the shooting.
came on the scene hastily, but the three
men escaped in boat down the river.

We may look for stirring news in few
days. The military Gordon is being grad

may soon be a matter of history. Not only
Santiago must soon surrender, but also
Havana. Is is reported that Manila has
already been captured by Admiral Dewey,
and other Spanish possessions will soon
follow suit Spain, although averso to
sneing for peace, must speedily do SO, or
she will eventually be stripped of all her
dependencies and oven Madrid become sub :

murder Of his wife, Fife Goodwin. He
walked to the scaffold with firm step.

was the coolest person present. His two
bothers, who were present, We're very
nervous, and one was trembling like a
leaf. Mrs. Goodwin's body was found
on the afternoon of Sept. 3 last on a
back street in Mansfield, Pa, with four
bullet holes in her head Goodwin was
arrested for the crime and later a 16-
year-old girl, Gertrude Taylor, was
placed under arrest as an accessory.
The Taylor girl confessed having ac-
companied Walter on the night of the
murder, but turned states evidence
and was the principal witness against
Goodwin at the trial.

WITH the new wheat cop soon ready to
harvest, Napoleon Letter, who has been
engineering the wheat deal, says there -
very little flour on hand in this country,
considering the daily amount consumed
and that it should sell higher before the
first Of July. He has thus far shipped
100000 bushels Of wheat to Europe this
week. The demand abroad for wheat Is
not an artificial one and prices may go up
to 81 bushel, but we doubt it, as next
month will SEQ one of the largest yields of
wheat this country ever harvested. If
