er Gem to Take Place at the United
States Marine Hospital this Morn
ing-I.c mains to be Sent to Boston

Deep regret was expressed yesterday
at the death OF Captain James A.
Smith, master of the American schoon-
er Gem. who died at $50 o'clock Fri
day evening at the United States Ma
rine Hospital. Mr.. Jas. I. Riley, ship
broker, to whom the vessel was con-
signed, received telegraphic instruc-
tions yesterday from the owners,
Messrs. John S. Emery & Co., of Bos-
ton, to have the remains embalmed and
send them to Boston. They will be

The schooner Gem arrived in port
two weeks ago and Captain Smith was
then sick. He was at the hospital a
few days, but came down town and
cleared for Boston on Saturday, July
9TH, with a cargo OF crossties loaded
by Flynn & Co. When the vessel
reached Southport outward bound, the
captain was so i'll that he decided to
return to the hospital. He came back
to the city on the steamer Wilmington,
and again entered the hospital. last
Tuesday. He developed a case of ty-
phoid fever and grew worse till the
end came. Meanwhile, Captain F. A.
Dix was sent here by the ships owners
and he took her on to Boston.
Captain Smith was aged so years and
was a Christian seaman, having many
years put his hope in the great Master.
He was man CT admirable character
and was highly esteemed by all who
knew him. He had traded in Whining
ton ON different vessels for some years,
and had made many warm friends in
Wilmington. He was a native of Ma
chias, Me-, and leaves a wife and sew
eral children. A married daughter re-
sides at Parrsboro, Nova Scotia. In his
their flags at half mast yesterday.
Captain Smith died away from home
but he did not pass away without skill
full medical attention and the minis
trations and sympathy of friends. Yes
terday the captains of several vessels
in port and friends here sent beautiful
floral tributes to the hospital to be
laid upon his casket.

BROKE JAIL.
Private Odefi, Soldier from Fort
CnsweIl, Filed the Iron Bars and
Escaped from Prison mt Southport
Friday Night-He Was i'm For
Shooting at Three Men-Comrades
Aided Him to Break Jail.

Yesterday morning when the iailo- OF
Brunswick county jail, at Southport,
got to the jail. he discovered that one
of his prisoners had broken Jail and fed
for parts unknown.
During Friday night Private ". Odell,
a soldier from Fort Caswell. filed the
iron bars Of his cell. and got his liberty.
Evidently some of the soldiers COM
rades assisted him to escape. as several
were standing near the Jail window Fri
day afternoon talking to Odell and no
doubt took the opportunity TO pass him
some files with which to break Jail.
Soldiers, however, have been accustom-
ed to stand under the windows and con-
verse with Odell since his imprison-
ment
Odell was in Jail ON defaut of bail,
having been bound over to the superior
court of Brunswick county for assault
with a deadly weapon On the night of
July 4th, after Southport's great In
dependence day celebration, Odell was
nearly crazed with drink and got him
self into serious 5craue. Upon COM
ing out of the barroom, he saw several
men sitting on the steps of the pavilion
on the water front. He passed close to
them, and asked in n very profane man
ner who they were. Receiving no an
swer, he drew an army revolver, and
fired it it into the party, the ball pass
ing between Mr.. r. Will Davis legs.
AS he was about to shoot again, the
men overpowered him and diSarmed
him. None in the party had ever seen
him before and had no misunder-
standing with him. They could &C
count for the assault on no other
grounds than that the man was wild
with LIQUOR.
Odell was carried 10 Jail and next
day was given q hearing and bound
over to court.

AN EASTER CYCLONE.
Churches wrecked and worsbipers
Crushed In Ruins.

pITTSBURG. March 3t.-One of the
dercest windstorms ewes known in this
section struck the city yesterday just
before noon and did almost incalcula-
bic damage TO property and injured
many people some of whom may die
from the effects of their wounds
Scores of houses were unroofed, many
trees were blown down, mill stacks top
pied over, ana telegraph and telephone
wires were generally disabled.
The most serious accident reported
was the unrooing of the Knoxville
Presbyterian church in Knoxville. The
church at the time was filed with an
Easter congregation numbering about
800 persons. While the minister was in
the midst of his sermon strong gust
of wind blew over the large chimney
and lifted portion of the roof of the
building. The bricks from the chimney
crashed through the roof and carried
a huge piece of the hardwood ceiling
measuring about 40 by 90 feet down
upon the worshipers in the pews. An
indescribable panic ensued, and fran
tic rush was made for the doors and
windows The excitement was soon
queted and the work of rescue began.
At least forty persons were caught by
the wreckage and more or less hurt
OF this number five may not recover.
In none of the other accidents re-
ported throughout the city were there
any serious injuries to persons, though
many narrow escapes are recorded.
AS Rev. J. w. English, pastor of the
Robinson Run U. Z. church, near Nc
Donald, was raising his arms TO pro
nounce the benediction lightning struck
the church spire, and it toppled upon
the roof crushing it and injuring
number of worshipers, two of whom
will die.
The Noblestown Presbyterian church
was also unroofed, but the congrega-
tion escaped injury
At Greenville the United presbyte-
rian church was partially destroyed by
the gale during service, and the pastor
received fatal injuries.

General Miles has committed the

General Miles has committed the
objectionable offense of disagreeihg
with Secretary of War Root about
the organization of the army, and
has been indiscreet enough to say
so. General Miles was carrying a
musket and fighting for the Union
when Secretary Root was i'll skirts,
and had fought his way to major
generals shoulder straps before
Root outgrew his first pair of pants.
During the next thirty-fve years he
fought Indians while Root studied
law in the city of New York. One
would at first glance suppose that
General Miles ought to know some
thing about the army, but Root says
he don't, and if he ventures to open
his mouth again he is to be remov-
ed from the head of the army and
placed on the retired list. Perhaps
he will be hung. Men who have
never done anything but fight, and
who can't waltz worth sour apples
have no business in the army any
how. .--Ex.

just Closed.

Governor OdclI on Work of Session
just Closed.
ALBANY, n. Y, March 2S.-Govern-
or Odell in discussing the result of the
legislative session, which came to n
said:
THE number of laws this year will
be much less than last. | believe that
there will be not more than 400 in all.
The number signed to date is 259, and
| am busily engaged working on them.
The appropriation bills will not be con-
sidered until next week, as | want to
dispose of the general bills first.
This is the shortest session OF the
legislature in many years, and the ap-
propriations compare very favorably
with those of last year. In 1901 the
total was $40, ,S07, ,G0S.75, and this year
1t is $21 ,S07, ,371 "A. 1t would have been
much smaller II it had not been for the
fact that cur extraordinary appropria-
tions are largely increased. For in.
stance, there is 1892 900 for the schools
of the state, 100000 for the Mckinley
monument, 100000 for the st. Louis
exposition and $S5, 900 for the Seventy
first regiment armory.
This is offset by the settlement of
the state printing claim, which carried
with it $256,000 and which was finally
allowed at $190.000."
Before adjournment the tax rate was
fixed at thirteen -hundredths of Il
mill, and the money raised by it will be
applied under the constitutional provi-
sion to paying the interest on the canal
debt.
