OUR PATRIOTIC DAY
Glorious Fourth on Tapis For
- Both Wrightsville and
Carolina Beach.
PREPARATIONS IN PROGRESS
For Bis Celebration Everywhere Red
Men Will Have Charge at Carolina
. Beach Splendid Observance
at Soatbporf.
Probably the most current, at any
rate apropos question is: "Where are
yon going on the Fourth!" Of course,
some can answer definitely and others
cannot There are going to be big
times all 'round and many attractions
to demand a close decision.
At Wrightsville Beach the day as of
yore will be gloriously observed. The
Seashore JIoteL .and both, vaeht clubs
will give big 'dances.- At the hotel it
will be a day of constant enjoyment,
while both the Atlantic and Carolina
Clubs will furnish entire day's pro
grammes of almost incessant amuse
ment. There will, of course, be boat racing,
eta, and the Seacoaat road will also
offer special attractions. -Indications
are for almost an overflow of visitors
from afar, while the usual large crowds
will go down from town. The hotels.
Seashore and Ocean Yiew, will amply
accommodate the former, while the
Seacoast' will look after the latter in
their usual careful and quick style.
A schedule for the running of trains
at all hours and on schedule time is
now being made up.
The Fourth this year at popular
Carolina Beach will be a memorable
one. . All kinds of sport and fun are to
be dished out. The observance will be
under the auspices of Eyota Tribe No.
5, Improved Order of Bed Men, of this
city, and that alone is a sufficient
guarantee of a big time. There will
be dancing all day at the pavilion and
Sedgely Hall Club and music on the
boats plying between the city and the
beach. Of course, Hanover Seaside
Club will have their usual splendid
celebration. .
Captain John W. Harper, the clever
commander of the steamer Wilming
ton, has arranged a splendid schedule
as follows :
Boats leave the city at 8.00 and 10.30
A. M., and 2.00, 5.00 and 7.30 P. M.
Leave the beach at 9.00 and 1L00
A. M , and 3 00, 6 00 and 10.00 P. M.
The day too at Southport will be a
big one. In fact, one of the most ap
propriate and extensive Fourth cele
orations of years will take place there.
A fine programme of speaking, music,
etc., has been mappecTout.
The Boys' Brigade will be at camp at
South nort vhen, and will participate in
the patriotic observance.

The stars must have foretold a
victory, for if ever a feeling of a home
team's mastery prevaded the very
atmosphere it was yesterday. Not-
with standing the strong opposing
Tartars and the close score, never an
anxious moment or breath holding
spell occurred. For some unezplain
able reason every body knew thecham
pions were going to win and win they
did. Yet it was a splendid game. - It
was really a pitcher's battle with
Vorhees leading at critical stages.
The Champion b never appeared to
better advantage. They were lively,
"gingery" and perfect, save for two
errors that cost . nothing. They ap
peared to thoroughly enjoy the neck
and neck race until the home stretch
was reached, when they "won out"
though it would only have been by a
nose if Ashenback's frisky frivolities
hadn't led him into a damaging duo
of rapid consecutive errors.
Tarboro was not in the best form,
and was unfortunate in widely sepa
rating their hits, concept in the ninth
inning, but Vorhees' strong work
asserted itself.
The only plays bordering on sensa
tionalism was a stop by Crockett, a
long throw by Sebring from left field
home, and two beautiful .stops by
Gettig in the box. "
The game openef up with the Tar
tars at the rubber, which netted noth
ing exfbpt a harmless single by Wed
dige, aftei Deisel had fanned. Foster
made a neat sacrifice, but Ashenback
thrashed the air. The Giants were
luckier, due probably to Gettig's tem
porary wildness. Both Clayton and
Devlin, the first up, were "dead
headed" to first and then moved up a
peg on Crockett's sacrifice. Stafford
gained first on a skyscraper just back
of third, but which was not sufficient
for a score. Sebring flew out to right
and permitted Clayton to score. Cran
ston fanned.
The second was fruitless for both,
as the Tartars only had one more to
reach first, and he was given a pass,
and the Giants Only got a hot single
by McGinnis. i
The third started ' out gloriously for
the visitors, as Gettig lined out a two
bagger at the very start and obtained
second on Deisel's hit to "Dalvy." But
on the third bag he remained, as Cy
was invincible, fanning Weddige and
permitting Foster at first to fly to
Crockett Our half was not as good
and decidedly not as lengthy. ' It was
one to three out, with Devlin driving
out to deep center, Crockett out to
"Little Ash," and Stafford Tanning.
In the fourth inning more goose
eggs materialized, the' only man get
ting on OL jjeing Cranston on Wed
dige's erroNand a subsequent steal of
second.,
Tbe fifth was almost a repetition
with the positions reversed, as the only
man who got to first was Gettig, whose
arm came in contact with the ball.
The Sixth inning was the only
time the Tartars were in evidence
with a score:' Weddige singled
and Foster followed with a timely
sacrifice. Ashenback flew out to left,
but Curtis scored Weddige on a pretty
single. Gwaltney fanned. For Jthe
Champions Seabring obtained a single,
but as Crockett and Stafford had both
previously registered goose eggs, hit
to ahort uJ the latter on a deep Icen
ter fly, and as Cranston followed the
single with a fly to thjxd, it availed
"nit."
Neither the seventh or the eighth
gave the Tartars a living chance,
though Pennington got a pretty single.
Again the Champions were fortunate
in the eighth. Clayton singled, went
to second on Deisel's sacri flee and scored
on Crockett' si ogle.. "Davy" got
second on Foster's error of. his. tiogle,
bat was forced out at third by Sebring's
hit to the box. In the meantime
Stafford had walked to first and Se
bring's. chance put him on second.
Cranston hit to second and Ash erred.
Then to cap . the climax; he made a
most unearthly throw home and Staf
ford and 1 Sebring scored. Cranston
was put out at third: while trying to
make the rounds on the wild throw.
After two men had been retired in
the ninth Gettig hit a difficult one to
Crockett who made an extraordinary
stop but it didn't reach first in time.
In rapid succession Curtis and Wed
dige siagled, thereby filling up the
bases. But "All's well that ends well"
Vorhees fanned Foster. --..'
Gettig pitched a fine game. The field-,
ing of Sebring - and Pennington was

Not At All Sensational, ,
, But It Increased Onr Percentage.
The Turtles crawled backward
yesterday. .
The Turtles crawled into a Hor
nets' nest about right.
The - Giants are now tied with,
but, thanks awfully, not to the Turtles.
Lipp, a fine pitcher, is now with
the Hornets and will make his pres-.
ence felt. . ' '
"Our Bob Gwaltney wore the
inflated pad for the Tartars and did
his work well.
It was not a sensational game. In
fact the ginger provided for the occas
ion was very much diluted.
Promoters of excursions during
the Encampment should select days
when there will be base ball games
here.'
Strangers who went to the Park
and asked what the .big tent outside
was for, were told" that it was for
AshehbaclPs circus.
Without knowing how the gate
people figured it, the Star is satisfied
that the number Of people on the
grounds was at least 675.
Capt John Cotton was a conspicr
uous rob&r for the Tartars. As Tar.
boro is John's native town, his
preference was not a surprise.
It was close enough up to the
eighth inning, each team having
scored one run. Then the Champions
made three runs, and tftit settled it.
The horse editor of the Star con
gratulates the snake editor of the Char
lotte Observer on the ease with
which the Hornets turned the Turtles
on their backs.
During the Encampment aTl
Wrightsville' there will be fifteen
games played in Wilmington, giving
the Guardsmen a fine opportunity to
enjoy tire sport
A fair comment on the result of
the' game is that the Tartars were in a
somewhat crippled condition, and that
the Giants did-not nIJ- up. to their
usual standard.
Good for Tarboro," said the
ornithological of the Postt of Wednes
day. As reciprocity is a good thing,
we -say, as we .look at the - score of
yesterday good for Charlotte.
Manager Bryan and Captain
Ashenback say they were umpired
out of the game yesterday, and the
latter said to a Star representative
that the Tartars would not play to
day unless some one other than Sta
ley umpires the game.
Richmond Times: '.'Treasurer
Phillips, of the Richmond Base Ball
Club, burned the wires yesterday
in his efforts to secure players to
strengthen the' local team. Pastor,
the new short stop, who is said to be a
wonder, both in the field and at the
bat, will report to day, and Drauby,
the best first baseman in the Atlantic
League, will, probably join in a few
days." .
" The Star of Tuesday said: "The
sting of the Hornets may strike the
Turtles in a tender spot to day say,
in the regionakeMnarrative." As
this did not trnm r that day,.
the
ornithological oracle of the
tne star, was a poor propnet. - we
that very thing did occur at Charlotte
yesterday, the Hornets winnings by a
score of 9 to 5.
Here is richness for ycu from the
Norfolk Landmark- "The fight among
the clubs for the - pennant in this
league promises to be one of the most
interesting imaginable. The teams in
North Carolina are determined that
the flag shall go to one of them, while
the two teams in Virginia are equally
as determined. Wilmington papers
give Norfolk the credit of winning the
&mmt half of the inaion, - while our pa
pers confer the honor upon Wilming
ton. It is very improbable that there
will be any content between the two
for the: honor, as Manager Cunning
ham Beemsto be willing that the Old
North State boys shall have the honor.
He expects to win the 'second half,
and afterwards defeat Wilmington for
the pennant for the season.

BAR ASSOCIATION.
Two Sessions of the Convention
Held Yesterday at
Wrightsville.
ADDRBSSES AT EACH jSESSION
By Hon Charles M. BIsckford, of Vir
ginia, snd Hsmilton C. Jones, Esq ,
. of the Charlotte Bar Routine -Business
Programme.
The lawyers 6? the State are still in
convention at the Seashore Hotel at
Wrightsville Beach.
Yesterday was the second day of the
third annual meeting of the North
Carolina Bar Association and two ses
sions were held during, the day: The
first session was called to order at 10
o'clockA. M.,and the second convened
last night at 9V'clock in the ball room
of the hotel. -
. . During; the mbrning'session an elab.
orate and scholarly address was deliv
ered by Hon. Charles M. Blackford, of
Lynchburg, Va. The subject of the
address was, "The Influence of the
English-speaking Lawyer on Preserv
ing the Liberty of the English speak
ing Race." In paying a tribute
to the Bar Associations , of the
country, Mr. Blackford said :
"Nothing has been done by the bar
of the United States, or of the several
States, so calculated to purify its prac
tice or to elevate and ennoble its
aims, as the formation and main
tenance of tbe various Bar Associa
tions. By them the lawyers are
brought together in charming social
intercourse; the old men, by asso
ciates, are inspired again, with the en -thusiasm
of youth, and the young are
cheered as they chafe in their slow
and seemingly hopeless progress by
noting the footsteps of the old, learn
ing of their struggles andhearing the
story of their days of gloom and de
pression and of the labors by which
they attained their success. Nor is
this all, here men are taught that the
highest rewards of the profession
are won only by hard work and that
its best triumphs are accorded only to
