Wilson boys on the team proud. After a few wtords they decided not to fight. as it is not very agreeable to appear before the Mayor Monday morning. - . Reckless Hiding. Last Monday "morning Mrs. J. O." Farmer came very ,near being run over by a negro boy who was riding down Barnes street at; a reckless gait. She and lier little boy were walking along when the boy came by striking her with his wheel, and frightening her very badly. Mr. Farmer carried the boy before Mayor Deans, who after giving him a severe lecture fined him $500. Being unable to pay it he was at once put upon the streets to work it out. This reckless riding is getting to be a daily occurrence and the riders will not' be satisfied until some one, is seriously hurt. Because they comply with the town ordinance by ringing their bells and carrying a lantern, they seem to think the side walk belongs to them. When the new ordinances are issued a change will be made in the laws regarding bicycles, which all riders will do well to notice. This reckless riding does not apply to all who own wheels, only those who might be termed "scorch' ers," and if they are not careful May or Deans will "scorch" them sure enough. ' ! : Free Pills.

It has been many days since the theatre going people of Wilson have had the pleasure of witnessing as good a "popular pripe" show as the one which held the boards at the opera house on Monday and Tuesday nights. - "Paige's Players" , is a company of the best artists, organized under the laws of North Carolina. The actors are from the 'North and several of them were'with the Flora Stamford Company which was through the State last season. As explained a few weeks ago the object of this troupe is tojgive midsummer enter tainments, visiting j several of the 'larger towns and cities at an interval of about three weeks, with headquar ters at Greensboro. A good sized house was out to witness the initial performance, and increased with the second. "The Circus Girl" was billed for Monday night and those who wit nessed it saw at once that all the act ors were well trained in their respec tive parts. We have not space to comment on each individual but will The game was pitched by Ellyson without 'an error and in brilliant style, Tarboro getting only four hits in the entire game. Bailey's catch ing was all that could be asked, and when it is remembered that he was badly hurt by an ugly cut on his Head early in the game, one can onlv wonder at his pluck in sticking to Tiis ! work at all. Capt Stanley put out or assisted in retiring nine men, aryl here the story must end, tor to go fur ther would only be to record errors made by,the fielders, errors tbar cost one and two runs each. The only Wilson man playing without an error being Wilkins, J , who made three of the four runs of the game. If- the battery had received the support ot the out'field that was giv en in the second game (by the . same men) a very different tale would have been told. Score was : Tarboro, 3-30-0000028 Wilson, 001 ooo-irO-2 4. Batteries : Hill and Brake : Elly son and Bailey. SECOND GAME. Friday's game opened with Wilson stock way below par, in fact the -Tar boro boys were so confident of suc cess that betting on the game was discarded and bets 01a "shut out" were the order of the day, suppliment ed by the less ventursome with wag ers that more than three runs would not be scored by the Wilson boys but as soon as the game opened those people began to quake in their shoes and by the end of the second innings Tarboro faces could only be meas ured "by the yard." Our little man Mangum ' proved a hoodoo, they could not find him and stranger still when they did happen to meet one of his advances the fellows, who had played ihe field on Thursday like dummies, notonly got under every fly but passed it in without letting the the ball get soiled io the grass, in fact Wilson haH it all her own way until Mangum's broken finger got a tresh hurt (in the sixth inning) and he lost control of his balls. The plucky lit tle man stuck to hit post, however, until he got to hitting the players in stead splitting the plate, when the box was handed over to Hines for the eighth and last inning, j The game Friday was one succes sion of pretty plays, marred by only five errrors only two of which cost a run. The play of the game was a running catch by Woodard. -The Tarboro team is one of the strongest aggregations of " college stars that has ever been brought to gether; in North Carolina: Wilson was called upon ' to face nine paid men, while six ot their nine were home boys.
