There are so many of them that there are not rally enough young ladies actully, working to win all, and more must encer the race of active workers.

In an interesting game of ball on the local diamond, Asheboro defeat ed Lexingtou Thursday afternoon i by the score of 5 to 4. Asheboro j took the lead at the start and never I allowed Lexington to forge ahead of j ner. ine line-up of the Asheboio team was as follows- Fox, 1st B.; Armstrong, 2nd B; Rush, 8. S.; Presnell, 2rd B.; Caudle, L. F.; Brown, C. F.; Thornburg, R. F.; Stedman, C. and Cox, P. From the beginning it was evident that the game would be a close oue, for on the field and at the bat t';e two teams were well matched. Ashe boro, however, in the sixth inning succeeded in bunching several hits on Walthrop, and these, coupled with two errors on the pact of Lex ington, drove in four runs, and won the game for Asheboro. Walthrop was relievel in the follawing innings by Sexton, an old Asheboro player, who allowed no more scoring on the part of Asheboro. Cox, for Asheboro, pitched an ex cellent game, keeping the hits well scattered. He wa3 especially effec tive with men on bases, and after catching a few men at first base, he caused Lexington to abaudou all idea of winning. Both teams gave good support to their pitchers, tno' the work of the two first basemen, deserves especial mention. Ou the whole, the game was an excellent exhibition tf baseball, tho' it was considerably marred by con tinuous kicking on the pait of Lex ington and the consequent ill feeling. lUchlaml Convention.
