A SLUGGING MATCH. A. C. L. Auditor's Office Team Went Down Before the Heavy Hitting Traffic Men at Hilton Park. In a game of base ball which was characterized by heavy slugging, and costly errors, the' Traffic Department team of -the A. C. L. defeated the Auditing Department team' by a score of 23 to 13 yesterday afternoon at Hilton Park. Fully four hundred people witness ed the game and while they were not treated to such a contest as some of those seen on the Hilton diamond this season, still they were amply repaid for the trouble of going out The Auditing Department took the first inning and succeeded in putting one man across the plate. The Traffic men did a little better and when the last man was out they had five runs marked to their credit. In the second inning the auditing clerks pulled themselves together and the air seemed full of balls and when the third msn was down seven scores were placed on the board for them. Until the sixth inning, the ''Audi tors" had everything their own way but in that inning the Traffic men got new life into themselves and batted seven runs, and from that time the game was theirs. ' The catching of Page, the work of Polly" Foster, who proved to be the second "Reddy" Gilligan at shortstop, and the fast playing of James at third for the Traffic's, and Crow's short stop work, Hatch's base running, and Morton's catching for the Auditing team deserve special mention.

Has Recently Been Pateated by Mr. J. B. Mercer, of This City A Cola Holder and Miller. Mr. J. B. Mercer, the well known and popular shoe merchant of Wil mington, who has shown his genius in former years in the invention of several labor saving and useful contri vances, has just received letters patent for another article which bids fair to make himself and his invention ex -ceedingly well known to "changers of money" and commercial men gener erally. The invention spoken of is a metallic coin holder and a safety device for mailing small vials and glass articles of any nature. The coin holder is de signed to supercede and overcome in many points of desirability the paper packages now used by banks, railroads, factories and other institutions for holding coin in stated amounts and convenient form. Mr. Mercer's in vention is a skeleton receptacle of tin in which may be placed stipulated amounts of coin varying, of course, in size to fit the several denominations, and possessing over the paper contri vance the advantage that money may be counted in the holder without breaking the package and exposing at all times the edges of the coin to view. The new contrivance may be used from one to perhaps fifty times, over and over again, and each is fitted with a device which retains the package compact, however much the coin may be worn in circulation. The improved tin coin holder manufactured on a larger die, ' can be readily made into the mailing case spoken of. Various other advantages over similar patents cannot well be described in brief. Mr. Mercer has already received several flattering offers for his patent Banner Presentation. Mayor Waddell has accepted the in vitation of the Democratic Executive Committee to formally make the pre sentation of banners for superior work in the late election to the First, Third and Fifth wards, respectfully, and the exercises will take place from the site of the late tournament grand stand on Market street, at 8.S0 o'clock to morrow night. Captain George L. Morton. Senator-elect from this dis trict I will receive the banner in behalf of the First Ward, Hon. John D. Bel lamy for the Third Ward and Capt J. M. McGowan for the Fifth Ward.

Sellers, formerly of Ms est., t e Norfolk Vir-giniuh-'Pilot : "Sellers had been living here for some time, and has been doing carpen ter work. When the negro Alex Tate was under sentence of death in Forts mouth several months ago, Sellers went to Chief Kizer and asked him to use his influence with the Ports mouth officials, so that he (Sellers) could get the task of tying the knot for Tate's execution. He represented to the Chief that he was an expert at this work, but received no encourage ment and as Tate s sentence was sub sequently commuted to life imprison ment, sellers never got the 30b. 1 "Chief Kizer received a telegram from Wilmington" last night stating that Mrs. Sellers would not send for the remains of her husband, and the city will bury the body to day."
