LOST PRETTY GAME Washington and Lee Won In Eleventh inning, 3 to 0 Raleigh, N. C, May 9. In a pitch er's battle between Robertson and Mo ran, A. & M. lost today to Washington and Lee in one of the hardest fought and most interesting games of the season. Neither side was able to get a man across the rubber for 10 in nings. In the 10th inning, on account of being a little tired, Robertson was replaced by Stafford, but with this ex ception he had pitched a magnificent game, having allowed only five scat tered hit and striking out 8 men. The scoring came in the 11th Inning when Raftery, the first man up, was safe on an error of third and went to second on a sacrifice by Donahue. Bone, the next man, was hit by a pitched ball, and Stuart got first on a slow ball to' short. With the bases full, Stafford hit Erwin, forcing the first run. Peebles hit to third, forcing Stuart, Bone scoring oh the play. Mo ran flew to center, who dropped the ball, Erwin scoring. Smith was out second to first. The features of the game were the pitching of Moran and Robertson, tie fielding of Washington and Lee, and the hitting of Erwin.

Batteries for the Episco palians. Jacobs and Cotchett; for tae Methodists, Burnett and Goldberg The game tomorrow as scheduled will be between the First Presbyterians and the Baptists.

National Wood Products Company New Wilmington Concern A charter was granted yesterday by the Secretary of State to the Nationa Wood Products Company, of this city which has been organized by Messrs T. W. Pritchard, P. P. Causey and H, M. Chase, with an authorized capital stock of $1,500,000, of which $3,000 has been paid in The promoters of the company have planned to erect a modern commercial plant in this city at an early date and to erect other plants at suitable loca tions throughout the pine belts of the South as rapidly as possible. Arrange ments have been made whereby the company has secured the right of pat ents of the National Wood Distilling Company, of this city, owners of the Pritchard process for distillation. By means of the Pritchard process of distillation it is claimed by the own ers of the patents that materials that have heretofore gone to waste can be utilized perfectly, thus giving the com pany a vast amount of material which can be purchased cheaply close at hand, but at the same time benefit ting the community by means of fur nishing those producing the raw ma terial a satisfactory price for what heretofore they have had to throw away. The process has recently been passed on by a board of chemical ex perts and a report from them is ex pected in a few days. The board con sists of Dr. Chas. Baskerville, profes sor of chemistry at the University of the City of New York; Dr. M. C. Whit- aker, professor of industrial chemistry at Columbia University, and one of the leading chemical engineers in Ameri ca, and Dr. Jno. E. Teeple, formerly professor of chemistry at Cornell, and at present actively engaged in the wood distilling industry. A half million of the authorized cap ital stock of the National Wood Pro ducts Company will be preferred and a million common. This stock will be placed on sale as soon as tire necessa ry arrangements nave Deen maae. Stock will only be issued as it is ne cessary to erect plants and put them in operation. v Mr. Thos. W. Pritchard, inventor of the Pritchard process, read a paper on the subject before a meeting of the Society of Chemical Industries in New York City. March 22nd. and also at a meeting of the North Carolina Acade my of Sciences, at the University, COMPETITIVE RIFLE SHOOT Teams From Third Regiment Great Progress in School Tax Elections.
