IT its gratifying- to us to see the
interest taken in our base-ball
games by the Alumni of theUniver
sity and people in general of the
State. Quite a number from Ral
eigh, Greensboro, Durham and other
neighboring towns came to see the
game, with ..Virginia Saturday.
; Wis:, publish in another column the
program for Commencement. A new
feature this year will be the address
before tbei School of Law. This ad
dress will be delivered by the Hon.
Thomas C. Fuller, LL. D., of Raleigh.
It will come off on Monday, which has
Heretofore been a dull day in Com
men cestui -week;
' The; address on Wednesday by the
Hon. Hannis Taylor, of Mobile, will
.be of special-interest because Mr. Tay
lor was minister to Spain during- Mr
.Clev.eltand.'&radministration, and is as
;ve.ll up .on , the. Spanish situation as
any man in America.
: The laying; of the corner stone of
Alumni. Building- on the afternoon of
the same day will be conducted by the
Grand Lodge.of Masons, and will, no

On a whole the Commencement ex

interesting than any we have had for
some time.
The showing made by our track

The Tar Heel has tried this year
to encourage this line of athletics
in, the University. The first of the
season found a good many out every

waned and the number gradual-
lydwjodled down to a very few.
. Now this is a branch of athletics
that ought to receive more attention
at the University, for there is none
more ; beautiful and - nothing that
tends more than held sports' to an
all round development of the body.
We have every facility here that, is

'reason why the University should

interest could be aroused in track

contests with other colleges. They

The rain Saturday came as
great disappointment to the large
crowd that had gathered on our
athletic park to witness the base
ball game between Virginia and
Carolina. The records made by
the two teams had led all to believe
that the contest would be close and
hard-fought The first two innings
confirmed this belief, and when the
game was broken up in the first
half of the third inning everybody
knew they had been knocked out of
seeing a fine exhibition of ball play
ing. And they were all the more
disappointed because everything in
the first two innings indicated that
the game was Carolina's. Though
Virginia made one run and we made
none, it was plainly, evident that
ours was the superior team. Law-
son struck out four men.Somersgill
none; Carolina got three hits, Vir
ginia not a one. As for Lawson s
pitching, it was superb. There
hasn't been anything like it on our
diamond in many a day. He had
the Virginians completely at his
mercy, lney.just couian t nnu
him. We feel safe in saying there
is not a pitcher in the. South today
that can.be compared to him. And
the batting as usual our men
started out with the evident inten
tion of batting the pitcher out of the
box and they were making the Vir
ginians open their eyes too. v
We believe we have the best team
this year we have ever had. It has
no weak points aboul it they are
trong and stronger. ; ,
Debaters in the Dl. Society.-.
The debater's contest in the Dia
lectic Society came off Monday
night. The query was "Resolved,
that the Present Jury System ought
to be Abolished." The medal was
awarded to Mr. C. C. Brown. The
judges were Dr. Battle, Prof. Gore,
and Prof. Williams. ,
