DaUy Rostlne of Work Pre- ' scribed The Band. Camp Aycock, Wrightsville Sound. The soldiers of the Second Regiment could not have wished for more ideal , i : weatner man jamp A.ycocK experi enced yesterday. True the rays of Old Sol were a bit discomforting when shade , was not convenient . but the ocean breeze across the Bank's Channel fanned everybody into a good humor. The camp is under strict military discipline and thepfficers are all doing their duty. Col. Rodman is firm in dealing with 'his men, yet generous and kind. He is the ideal regimental commander and is popular with his boys. Adjutant Champ McD. Davis is a strong "right bower" to the able commander and the company captains are nothing if not efficient and pains taking. Every indication points to a highly successful encampment. To-day camp routine will be taken up in dead earnest. The following scheme of duties was issued in a gen eral order yesterday. .

'The streak of luck that has pursued Bush, the diminutive slab artist for the visitors, during his entire connec tion with the league, took wings early in the game and flew away like a lark before a March wind. On the other hand, Stewart for the Giants, was nev er more unsolvable and only four hits, one or two of these being mere scratch" es, were, yielded during the entire nine innings. The locals jumped on Bush for twelve hits, two "of ihem having been doubles. They also got three passes to first and a record of four stolen bases. The Wilmington team was right in the game again and played ball to win. There was some kicking by both teams and the umpiring upon the whole, cannot be said to have been satisfac tory to either aggregation of players. Pulsif er, first man up, Bawed the air and Gilligan was out third to first Foster also sawed. Clayton for the Invincibles, got a pass but was forced by Devlin. Sebring fanned and War ren forced Devlin. In the Second inning Kemmer singled through short end Spratt forced him at second; Russell flew out to McGinnis and Hempleman fanned. For Wilmington', McGinnis flew to centre; Thackara singled to left and was caught between first and second ; Frost flew to short. In the third Morrisey beat the air; Bush out. third to first: Pulsif er was out, fly to centre.

Rftssell, Hempleman and Morrisey had gone down in their order and Btewart caught the ball for two bases way down in right; Clay ion bunted safely and Stewart got third but was caught between home and the cushion with all the Tartars after him, while Clayton came on to to third. Devlin fanned and two balls got on the diamond and Clayton was retired at the home plate. In the sixth Bush fanned and Pulsi fer flew out to second; Gilligan sin gled and Foster flew out to Sebring. Sebrinsr. Warren and McGinnis, for the locals, went down in their order. The seventh retired Kemmer, Spratt and Russell in their order, Spratt hav ing fanned. For the Giants, Thack ara flew out to second ; Frost hit to left for two cushions but was caught off second the minute he was safe, Allen flew to second. . The eighth had lots of consolation in it for the rooters, the Giants hav ing cinched the game by rubbering three men. Hempleman and Morri sey flew out in their order; Bush was safe on Warren's error and Pulsifer singled. Gilligan beat fiercely at three strikes and the Tartars were down. Stewart started the run getting for Wilmington on a single to centre, was sacrificed by Clayton and scored on Devlin's hit which fce Devlin second on throw home; Sebrlne singled to right and Devlin scored; Warren and McGinnis were still after Bush with good safe hits and Sebring scored. Mc Ginnis was arrested trying to steal second and Thack flew out to pitcher.

If we should let the Tartars take one to-day' it will be solely for hospi tality's sake. Manager Barley Kain, formerly of the Richmond team, is now with Marion, S.O. With ''all , due deference," or words to that effect. Umpire. Meade makes some awful mistakes. After to-day there will be no more ball here-until August 1st, when the Hornets come for three games. Sweeney, our home pitcher, will be in the box for the Giants to day, with Capt Thackara behind the bat. Wonder what old thing the Ra leigh religious reporters will inflict on their baseball readers now and call it poetry! Catcher Foster, of the Tarboro team, received a very flattering offer a few days ago to go to the Marionr S. C. team. During his last few weeks with Wilmington Stafford seems to have been "saving up" his home runs for New Orleans. The V. P. guesses those fellows who have been bothering him with requests to define a shet out know what it means now. The Turtles have struck a Hor net's nest in Charlotte. They have lost their tails and are sadly in need of a steering apparatus. Owing to unexpected delay, OStein cannot reach here to day, but will join the team in Raleigh. He left for that point at 5 A. M. to day. It was not the horse editor who talked about "two" twin brothers in the Stab of Sunday. It was the ter rible tautological typographer. Peace to his ashes.

A black and white parasol was left in the grand stand yesterday af ternoon by a lady enthusiast The finder will pleas return to No. 420 South Front street In order to give the teams time to leave on the 7 P.

Frost and Stewart led in the bat ting, each making a base hit and a two base hit out- of three limes at the bat Devlin and Warren each made two hits out of four times at the bat The name "Hornets" has been of ficially adopted for the Charlotte team. This is what the Stab dubbed them before they had played a game far Charlotte. "Spinners" wouldn't "o." The figure man of the Charlotte Observer gave Wilmington a percent age of 416 in its issue of yesterday. It should have been 455. It is now 500. Number of games played, twelve. Raleigh Post: "Did the horse editor carry out his threatened inten tions with his can of (baking) pow der?" Ohl yes. It raised the old Harry with the Tartars. But see here I What sort of powder are the Hornets using on the Turtles? Or, is it dynamite? The D. D. editor of the News and Observer served up this conundrum yesterday: "By the way. how looks the percentage column, Major?" To the eye of the horse editor it presents a very satisfactory appearance. But honor bright old Diamond Duster, how do you like the mutilation of figures that has almost turned it up side downt Hart la a Runaway. Mr. David M. Beardsley, manager of the Singer Sewing Machine Com pany in this city, received a severe gash in the head yesterday, as the re sult of being thrown from his buggy in a runaway at Ninth and Dock streets. The horse began to run at Ninth and Orange streets and when Mr. Beards ley reined him into a telegraph pole he fell from the buggy and struck his ; head against one of the wheels. It was a lively runaway and Mr. Beardsley is to be congratulated that he' did not re I ceive more severe injuries. Pinkini .

One of the Lariest Mills la Wilmington Which Has Been Idle for a Number of Years-New Machinery Installed and Property Improved. The Stab learns from an authori tative source that the 8. & W. H. Northrop' lumber plant at foot of Queen street is to be thoroughly re . habilitated at once and put in oper ation by the pjesent owners and other parties from the. North who have been interested in the project New machinery will be installed and much of that at present on the site and available will be overhauled and put in modern condition in every respect. The mill has been idle for a number of years, though the propri- retors have been engaged as large deal ers in sawed lumber for domestic and foreign export in the meantime. The plant is one of the most eligibly located in the city and the site has a splendid river front, affording unsurpassed facilities for shipping. A large amount of money will be spent in bringing the property up to its former standard and the mill will prove to be one among the largest and most important enterprises of its kind in the city. A $40,000 SALVAGE CLAIM. Wilmington and Norfolk Tugs Compro mises On the Payment of $15,000 In United States Court at Norfolk.

Craig, represent ing the owners of the tug Blanche and the owners of the Norfolk tug William F. Coly, has been compro mised, the owners of the steamer hav ing agreed to the payment of $15,000 to the libellants. The suit was recently brought in the United States Court at Norfolk, and Capt. Williams spent several days there in the interest of the libellants. The Starcross was pulled off the Cape Lookout .shoals about threer weeks, ago by the Wilmington and Norfolk tugs and the TJ. S. revenue cutter Al gonquin, stationed at this port Par ticulars of the distress of the vessel were printed in this paper at the time. The vessel was laden with phosphate rock, lumber and cotton from Bruns wick to Bremen. She proceeded after being pulled off the shoals to Newport News and since the settlement of the salvage claim she has proceeded to Bremen. SAD FUNERAL YESTERDAY.
