For six long innings not a man could be sent across the rubber by either team and 600 anxious rooters and rooterinas sat nervously 'under the canopy of heaven and the grand stand cover and with bated breath whispered to one another, "When will they score." Willig, .the new pitcher for the Giants, made his initial appearance on the home grounds and left a decidedly favorable impression He was a trifle wild at times but will steady down when he gets fully into the game. Bass did the slab honors for the Hor nets and neither twirler yielded but a single hit up to the seventh inning. Then the locals jumped on the visiting artist and pounded him not "un mercifully" as the- stereotyped phrase would have us to remark, but liberal- ly to say the least of it. In that in ning and in the eighth, he handed up six more singles while three was the best that Willig would afford. A pass to Weaver, his force out at second by Bigbie, a foul and out by 8 wander, an out, pitcher to first by Murray was the debut of the Hornets and Wilmington got Clayton safe on Bass' error, and sacrificed him by Cranston. Devlin was safe on Hook er's error but with the bases full the best that Warren and Sebring' could do was to go out, fly to right and third to first In the second Knau was out, pitch to first; Hooker flew out to centre and Clark to left. Thackara was safe for the Giants on Bass' error, but lack of coaching allowed him to die going to third. McGinnis out, second to first? Frost to Clark. The third had a fan out for Gates; a pass for Bigbie, a single for Weaver and a force-out for the same by Bigbie with a fly out to right on a phenome nal catch by Cranston for Swander. The locals went out, Willig to second ; Clayton on a fan and Cranston force out by Devlin at second after he was safe on "Hook's" error. In the fourth Murray was out to short; Knau, third to first, Clark to left; Hooker having been safe on ex cnsable error of Frost. Warren, out to right; Sebring to second andThack ara to short. In the fifth Gates was out, short to first; Bass to third and Bigbie to short. Weaver having walked. McGinnis for the Champions popped out to short; Frost got a single, Willig to pitcher, out at first; Clayton flew out to right. In the sixth, Swander drove out to Devlin; Murray and Knau beat the atmosphere. Cranston flew out to centre; Devlin and Warren to left, The seventh brought more "fans" for Hooker and Gates, a single by Clark and a fly-out by Bass to left The Giants then sot strictly in the game, Sebring lined out and was sac rificed by Thackara, while McGinnis, next up, was safe at first and Sebring crossed the rubber on Hooker's 'steenth error. Frost followed wiih a single and "Mack" was thrown out (f) at home on Willig's hit to short. Clay ton stopped the' run-getting machine by flying out to centre. In the eiehth, Stewart relieved Mc Gihnis at centre, on-account of the sickness of the latter and Weaver got a sinele. Biebie was hit and the two were sacrificed by Swander and on Mnrrav's fly-out to right, Weaver made the onlv one score for the visi tors. Knau was out to short Two more rui s were produced by the lo cals at their turn-with tbe willow and a single by Cranston, a sacrifice by Devlin, sineles bv Warren and Be bring upon which Cranston scored and a subsequent beautiful single by Rtewart unon which Sebring raced across the rubber after "Thack" had forced Warren at second. Frost flew out to left - A last effort by the Hornets fn the ninth consisted of a fly-out by Hook er to second, a single by Clark, a fan by Gates and a pop-out to pitcher by Bass. . tc, THE TABULATED SCORE. . .

Not a Run Made Until Seventh Inning, It was a very interesting game. The attendance was exceedingly large. Deerfoot "burned the wind" again yesterday. Every player was on his good be havior. Kicking a lost art in Wil mington. The man behind the bat, like ."the man behindlhe gua,' occupies the po' sition of danger. . Not a run was made until the seventh inning, when Wilmington started in to win. Harry Mace is a past master of umpiring. He is the best ever seen on the Wilmington diamond. Willig is another good ope from Williamsport which is so well repre sented on the Wilmington team. ' There are now two deferred games between Wilmington and Charlotte. One will probably be played at each place. It was a prime day for the cush ion vender. The rains had exerted an evil influence on tbe seats, even in the grand stand. Frost improves with acquaint ance. He is a good all-around player. Crockett made no mistake in recom mending him. The Giants play, three games in Tarboro and the Turtles play three games here this week. The . former leave here this morning. - "Cold drinks, cigars, cigarettes, ehe wing gum," is the plaintive ditty that is sung at intervals of three min. utee. It is very inspirine. The successful chase of a long fly to right field by Reddy Cranston, mak ing it necessary for him to run under the rail near the gate, elicited a storm of applause. The grounds were too wet for the first game scheduled. The miniature lakes had to be baled out and other work done to prepare the diamond for the 4.30 game. If the present excitement ovtr the voting contests does net wane it is probable that one hundred dollars will be realized from this feature of the lawn party alone. Remember the dates for the lawn party, next Thursday and Friday nights. The Raleigh team will be hereto enjoy the occasion with the Wilmington boys. No better man for President of the North Carolina ' Baseball League could have been found in the State than Mr. Sherwood Higgs, of Raleigh. He subordinates the ornamental to the useful.

He leaves this morning for Raleigh but will return the last part of this week for the games here. Umpire Fleming will officiate at Tarboro. The horse editor mysteriously dis appeared this moruine.

To The Star On July 3d the First Battalion, ' North Carolina Boys' Brigade, went into camp at Southport, for a stay of ten days, likewise, nights. Heretofore we have had correspon dents for all of. the papers to report each day's doings in. detail, and per haps we were expected to have them this time, but none of us could spare the time we would wish, so this article will take tbe place of daily reports. rue mtaiion is composed of Uom- pany A, commanded by Capt.

The tents are pitched on the north side of the Garrison, the beauty spot of Southport,. with the company streets running .east and west. The drill, grounds are about twenty-five yards from the camp, covering about four acres of level, grassy land. Arriving about 12 o'clock Wednes day, we consumed the balance of the day in getting the camp in order. "The Fourth" was a great day in the history of Southport, an account of which has already appeared in this paper. We were asked to lead the grand parade, but on account of our ignorance of the plan of the city and the names of the streets, Colonel asked that the band be given first place. The parade was a success from stat to finish. We had dress parade late in the afternoon before a crowd of not. less than 2,000 people. Tbe succeeding days, eacb accom panied by a night of pleasure on the garrison with the lovely eirls of Southport, passed by on wings of the wind, regardless of tne inclement weather, until now the last day of our fourth encampment presents it self to us with all of its sorrow and sadness Even the elements are in sympathy with us, for while this is being written the sky is weeping lor all it is worth. Before closing it becomes us to mention the treatment we have re ceived at-the hands of the people of Southport, especially the girls. The favors, attention and kindness shown us. and their endeavors to make our stay as pleasant as possible, could not be bettered anywhere. Hip! Hip!! Hurrah!!! Tnree cheers for Southport! The same for the Boys' Brigade 1 1 And a tiger for the girls!!! C. C. L. Funeral of Mr. P. Donlan. The funeral of the late Mr. P.
