We Were There. j - The Star has just learned that some of the truckers at . the meeting of tbe truckers' association held here last week wanted to know why the Star didn't have a representative at that meeting.

The reason its regular representative was not present at the meeting of the 2ii was that be was unavoidably called away from the city.

In which Tharp severely stabbed Jentins in the . back with a knife. At the time, the em ployes of tbe mill were at dinner, and Jenkins and Tharp had finished their meal and were teasing each other, which resulted in both getting mad and fight ing. Jenkins was getting the best , of the fight when Tharp drew his knife and stabbed him. j Dr. Wright Hall was summoned to the injured boy and dressed his wound, which was a straight stab an inch long and about thiee inches from the back bone. 1 At last accounts, last night the nniortnnate boy was resting well.

Special Star Telegram Wilson. N. C4 June 29. Yesterday and today the base ball cranks have been in full possession of the town. Tar boro, with an almost unbroken record, came to Wilson with their victorious team to measure strength with the home team. Monday's game was a beautiful and highly exciting game from start to finish, except a little wild work on the part of Tarboro in the first inning. After this the game was nip-and-tuck until the end of the game, when the score stood 5 to 9 In favor of Wilson. Tuesday's game was one of the most . bard fought and exciting amateur games ever played in North Carolina. The game lasted for ' twelve complete in nings; at the binth stood tied at four points. vAt the end of the twelfth inning the score stood 8 to 6 in favor of Wilson. The batteries were: Tarboro Taylor and Hill; Wilson Oldham,. Mangum and Hines. , . - A miraculous escape of lour young ladles from instant death occurred here this afternoon. Mussel Katherine aad Margaret Clarke, accompanied by Miss Bertie Burruss, of Fredericksburg, Va and Miss Mary Brandon, of New Or leans, were driving home from the base bill park In a surr. They had reached a point about three blocks from the centre of the town when they were overtaken by a. pair of runaway horses, dragging a light hack. The driver of the runaway team had been thrown out and the horses, wild with fright, dashed into the vehicle occupied by the young ladies, driving the carriage -pole through the backs of both seats of that vehicle and ; passing ia its coarse immediately between the two young ladies j occupying, either seat but touching neither. ; Ia a second's time the two teams were a mass of broken wood and struggling horses. Fortu nately, a crowd of men were upon the scene and the horses of both turnouts were seized from every side aad the young ladies assisted ia their escape from their perilous position. - Had the pole struck the front carriage six inches either to ths iht or the lett two of the young ladl'V mast have bsen impaled npoa its point and Instant death would doubtless have resulted.

THE '97 PENNANT; WHO WILL WIN " ' PENNANT THE BASE BALL IN 1897? . Sot ot Klik is roreeait-rSeya There Are Oalr Three Olnbs In the Baoe Ex- - peew Saw Xotk to Win. , New York Journal. SlA . William Joyce; laurel-crowned leader of the victorious Giants, held a levee at the Colonial Hotel yesterday and cheer fully furnished diagrams showing the 'methods, progress had prospects of the triumphant New York oase ball team. Having captured three! or four games from the champion Biltimores and broken up the Senatorial deadlock, the New York manager and players feet that they are entitled to view the surround ing country- with . a condescension vouchsafed only to a successful ball team.. i,-v: .- , - Dariog their brief absence from Broad way, the Giants accomplishsd a unique feat They defeated the Champions two games in one afternoon on the grounds of the Orioles. It may .never be done againt and considering the perform ances of Hanlon's men at home and abroad, the achievement was almost notable one The New Yorks also defeated the Washiagtons two games ia one day, but attach no special importance to that. Beginning to day tbe New Yorks have a slightly more difficult proposition to face. They play three games with Baltimore and three games with tbe formidable Bostons. When Manager Joyce was asked by a journal reporter what he thought would be tbe outcome of these important con tests, he replied : - REDS CUT NO FIGURE. "These games will make a difference ia the standing of the only three teams that I consider will fight for the pennant. They are New York, Baltimore and Boston. Cincinnati will not be in the hunt The New York team is torn playing as well as the best in the League. Not a team is hitting or fielding better, - and as for pitch ing we excel them all. I feet confident if we have a reasonable share of luck (vhich. by the way, cuts a very impor tant figure) we shall, wl low t the six games, taking two from each team. It must not be forgotten that Baltimore and Boston are first-class ball teams, and to lose to them is no disgrace. If they beat us they will beat champion ship playing." "And how do you now regard New York's chances for the pennant?" was asked ol the manager. "As I stated previously." he" replied, "there are la my opinion but three teams ia the race New, York. Balti more and Boston. The real fight for the flg will come ia August and Sep tember, and many things may happen before then. ,, ALL IN FINE TRIM. However, L will say that the New York team was never betore la such good condition so early in the season. From now on we should improve stead ily, ana in another month, barring acci dents, will .be at our best . Rusie and Meekia, while pitching good hall, are not in tfieir true form yet 1 It will be well into Jaly before they round to, and when tbey do tbe race looks to me lik a cake walk for New York." "now ao you account tor. the re markable improvement of the team as a whole?" was the next question put to tbe manager. V "The explanation is easy. The New York team is composed of veterans who require warm weather in order to get into good condition. When once they get limbered up and strike their gait they go at a last clip. "Veterans like Van Haltren, Davis, Gleason and Tierman are playing won derf ally good ball, aad Bill Clark, at first . has surprised alt hands. Holmes has proved to be a valuable man, and the cntireutnt is working harmoniously. "Seymour has pitched wonderful ball and Sullivan Is doing the best work of his lite. "Wilson is In good form to catch but as we win steadily with Warner behind the bat! I keep him there, as I do not believe in mtktng changes during awin- niog streak.

StJohn, vice-president of the Seaboard Air Line, will soon sever his connection with that road to accept a better place on the Csnadian Pacific railroad. - This, if true, is greatly to be regretted. Mr. bt John is easily tbe best railroad man la the Soutb. He took charge of the Seaboard whea it was almost in the hands of a receiver, and has not only made it one ot tbe best and most pros perous railways ia the South, bat he has built up and developed the section through which it runs until it blossoms as the rose. " It is, therefore, greatly to be hoped that tbe report is untrue. It is under stood that Mr. St John has a contract with the Seaboard under which It is bound to retain him five years If be cares to stay. It is not kaowa whether they have a similar coot-jet with him or SOL' . . rjs - Hsw Trelaht Boatev j. ; The Baltimore Sun of yesterday says "A traffic azreement his been made be tween the Baltimore and tPniladelphia Steamboat Company and the Bay Line for the operation of a freight line from Philadelphia.

Busi ness from Philadelphia will be earned on the steamers of the Baltimore and . Philadelphia Steamboat Company to Baltimore and transferred to the steam ers of the Bay Line for shipment Sonth. "Since the withdrawal of the Ocean Steamship Line, which ran from Phila delphia to Savannah, water facilities tor handling business for Southern points from Pailadelphia have been reduced,' and the new line will, it is thought sap ply the additional facilities desired by the merchants of that City. The line goes into operation on July 1. with a daily service." One Cant a Wore.
