Went Down to Wrightsville Yesterday. WILMINGTON LIGHT INFANTRY Made Most Creditable Showier, Headed by the Regimental Band Col. W, B. Rodmaa In Command and Bojs Generally In Good Spirits. Camp Aycock, Wrightsville Sound, awoke from a two day's sleep last night to the sound of the tramping of the Second Regiment, North Caro lina State Guard, which reached camp in its order late yesterday afternoon and will remain for ten days. ' The weather was ideal and the conditions were just of the kind, barring the occasional sting of a mosquito, to put everybody in a gSod humor and fill them with bright prospects for the en campment. V The various companies reached Wil mington by regular and special trains yesterday as previously detailed in these columns and were transported to the Sound on "specials" over the Sea coast Railroad. The companies are all in with full ranks and the attendance of regiment al officers is about perfect. Col. W. B. Rodman is in command, assisted by Lieutenant Col. W. A. Johnson, and the reputation of these well known officers in former encampments is enough to warrant that this one will be not only a pleasure but a profit to the boys of their command. The list of officers of the regiment is as follows: CoL W. B. Rodman, commanding; Lieutenant Colonel W. A. Johnson; Maj. J. C. Bond, com manding First Battalion ; Maj. H. C.

It formed at the armory at 2:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon and headed by the Second Regiment Band.it paraded the principal streets of the city and marched to the Seacoast Railway de pot, from whence they left on the train for the Sound. The boys made a very creditable showing and under the excellent command of Capt. Adrian they will prove second to none in the regiment.' The band also made a good showing and will easily prove to be the equal, if not the superior, of the three organizations of its' kind in the Guard. . The roster of - the company and others obtainable last night are as follows: LOCAL DOTS. British steamer Buckminster sailed yesterday from St. Michaels, Azores, for Wilmington, N. C.

Really should have counted in the summary for two bases. Won the game for Wilmington against Tarboro in the x tenth inning and came off the willow of Captain Perry Thackara, who made his debut on the home grounds in an official capacity yesterday afternoon. The Giants were up to their necks in the game and got down to old-time busi ness from the very start of the brush with the Tartars. The fifth inning had brought a tied score three three and then both teams worried along with tbat.-ehalkinr un goose eggs ever and anon until the Tartars had been put down in their half of the' tenth. Morrisev.'late of the. Boston American League, and Willig, the new twirler for the Giants, were on the slab and were keenine the runs well scattered. But in the tenth "Wallie" Warren led off with a nice single and was sacri need by McGinnis. Then with one man down, Warren on second and the rooters praying for a clean hit, Capt "Thack" came up and swished at one of Mbrrisev's finest but swatted the second for a line drive down third "Wo Hot." .oma soman (tin rubber, cinching the game. Capt. "Thack ' went as far as first base and upon returning to the bench received The glad hand from hundreds. The game opened with a fan by Gilligan, a base for Pulsifer on Frost's wild throw. 8Dratt forced Pulsifer at second and Kemnfor singled to centre. Foster flew out to centre. The locals got a man on third in their half, but could not score him. Frost singled, Devlin bunted safely and Frost got third without a man down. Sebring fouled out to Morrisey; Warren flew to deep centre and Devlin was cut off between first and second. The visitors scored in the second on a hit hot to short by Russell, a .pass for Hempleman, and a-hit by Morrnop to centre, Slagle having bunted out to pitcher and Gilligan and Pulsifer hav ing gone out to Stewart, Wilmington again placed a man on third, but was unable to score him. McGinnis safe on third's error; Thackara sacrificed; Allen safe on Kemmer's error; Stew art flew out and Willig fanned. In the third, Bpratt flew out; Kem- mer got -It pass; Foster flew out to Allen; Russell singled to left and Kemmer scored on Hempleman's hit to right; Slagle flew out to pitcher; "Jack" Frost got on tip-toe then for a run for the locals and drove out two bases to centre; Devlin fanned and Sebring singled to centre and got sec ond ; Warren flew out to left scoring Frost; McGinnis got a pass and went to second on passed ball ; Thackara was out on fouL Both teams were blanked in the fourth and the Tartars came up in the fifth for a run on Kemmer's single; Foster's sacrifice and Hempleman's single. The score was tied by the Giants in their half. Devlin was out second to first and Sebring went to the left hign brush for two cushions; Warren flew out to second; McGinnis hit to right and on wild throw home to cut off Sebring, the ball played all kind of antics with the fence and finally dropped over under the bleachers, al lowing both runners to score. Thack ara got a pass, Allen singled to right but "Thack" was thrown out attempt-. ing third. Then each team was blanked every inning until the tenth, though both pitchers drew themselves out of deep holes at several stages of the game. It was not uncommon to have - the bases full with even only one man down, but somehow, somewhere, something would happen to ward off a run. . The storv of the tenth inning has already been told. It was a slugging match in the mild sense of the term, but the game upon the whole was good. Mr. Meade's umpiring gave some better satisfaction, though there no.. . f. Irif kn hv both teams.

The Giants Played in Their Old Form. Clayton will be in the game to day. For a ' crlnnlnd teum th ttismta wonderfully well. ' r-"That"two.-base whack of Captain Thack was a crack a-jack. . The Giants are getting into their old titling form asrain. Pitcher Gettig, of the Tarboro. team, has been released. -- Deerfoot Sabring and Jack Frost did some Jali base running aeainv 'XJapt. Jimmie Cowan must feel proud of the auspicious beginning of his managerial career on the ball fiMld. Honors were easy between Willig and Morrisey, which is a c miiment ;' Willig. "There's life in ihf old and yet." - That case of cschiedam Schnapps ordered for the Giants arrived yester day, and it put the snap in them abbut right ! 'The game will be called this af ternoon at 4:15 o'clock. The batteries will be Stewart and Thackara for the Giants and Bash and Foster for the ! Tar Babies. J Weddige, Tarboro's crack third! baseman and heavy hitter, is confined to his hotel by sickness. He will like y not be -able to play in the games ! here this week. i Several new men are to be added to the Wilmington team just as soon as the necessary arrangements can be made. The managers are losing no time in this matter. - Captain John Wilbur Jenkins, of the Raleigh Titns, will no doubt be pleased to learn that his "canned lobs ters" danced the can-can all around and over the Tartars yesterday. CStein has been signed by Wil mington and will, join the team to morrow or Thursday. One or two more men are expected this week . O'Stein is now at Waynesboro, Ga. The Diamond Duster of the News and Observer will please send a der rick to Komical King Kelly. His esteemed Turtles are flat on their backs in Charlotte and can't be turned over by hand power. No one could reasonably ex pect the Giants to be at the top when the second series closes. But by hard work, they can be in -the second place. In first place in the first series and in second place in the second se ries will be a fine record, ' The Tarboro soldier boy? who 1 came alt the- way frm camp to root and hoot and toot for the Tartars were a lively set. So long as the score stood three to one in favor of the Tar tars they were intoxicated with de light; but Ihey grew weak when the Giants tied it, and when that fourth and winning run came in the tenth inning the troopers "folded their tents and silently stole away." The schedule for the second series provides for fifty-four games. Of these the Wilmington team has played only eleven, leaving forty-three games yet to be played in the regular series. It will be seen, therefore, that, there is ample time for Wilmington to recover its lost prestige. All that is necessary is the strengthening of the team and a determination of the members to work in perfect harmony. - In addition to the forty three games to be played in the regular series, eleven games will be played by the two teams winning the champion ships in the two series. The net pro ceeds of these eleven games, it is un derstood, will go -to. the individual players. To say nothing of pride, it is the personal and pocket interest, therefore, of every member of the Wilmington team to do his very best. If the Giants remain at the, bottom, but little interest will be taken in the play-off games and, consequently, the attendance and gate receipts will be small.

Securities Sold Yesterday to Cleveland, Ohio, Firm at Their Par Value WALKr R MEMORIAL HOSPITAL The Formal Transfer Prom Execotors Will be Made To-morrow Board of Com mlssiooers Held Meeting Yes terday Afternoon Jorors. The bonds to the amount of $50,000 for public road improvement recently voted by the citizens of New Hanover County were yesterday floated by the County Commissioners , at a special meeting of the Board called for this purpose. " There were four bidders for the se - entities but the sale was made to W. Hays & Son, the well known finan cial firm of Cleveland, Ohio, which agreed to pay par . value for same, it being understood that they are to yield four per cent, interest, payable semi-annually on the first day of Jan uary and July -each year. Tbe sale is regarded as a very good one and the money for same is expected to be available within 60 days. The other bidders for the bonds were Rudolph KJeyboldte & Co., Feder Holtzeman & Co., and Season good & Meyer, all of Cincinnati ; but each of them re quired the payment of a commission on the sale, which th successful bidder did not The bonds mature in 25 years and a sinking fund for the interest and prin cipal has been established by the com missioners, vhich will fully liquidate them at the end of that period. C hairman McEachern, of the Board, has also made arrangements by which he amount derived from the sale of bonds will be deposited in bank at the same rate of interest as is paid to the Ohio firm, thus practically eliminat- ng for the present at least, the pay ment of actual interest. The treasurer of the county affords security in ad dition to that of the bank by giving an extra bond for the custody of this fund. Another important matter settled upon at yesterday afternoon's meeting was the matter of the formal trans fer of the splendid James Wal ker Memorial Hospital from the executors of the last - will and testament of the late Mr. Walker to the city and county to whom1 it was so munificently donated. There will be no exercises of a public character to mark the transfer and the same will take place on to-morrow morning at 10 o'clock at the splendid structure n the northeastern section of the city. There will, however, be present upon the occasion of the formal transfer, all members of the Board of Alder -menCity.. Board of Audit and Finance, Board of County Commis sioners, Board of Managers of the new institution and Messrs. James Sprunt and Wm. Gilchrist, executors of the estate of Mr. Walker.

For the arrangement of the trans fer yesterday afternoon there were present with the commusioners, Col. Warren G. Elliott, president, the members of . the . Hospital Board of Managers and Alderman J.
