YETERANS' REUNION. Orders Will be Issued Soon for Encampment at Wrights- : ville August 14th., VERY LOW RAILROAD RATES Have Beta Secared aad Msj. Loedos, Ad- jotaat Oeieral of tke N. C. Division, Talaks Prospects Are Bright. .:. The Assail Meeting. The encampment of the Confeder ate Veterans-of the State at Wrihti ille beach just after the evacuation of Camp Aycock by the State Guard is now a certainty and fully a thousand of the gallant old soldiers are expected to be with the people of Wilmington and Wrightaville on this occasion. .v The present . plan is to have the veterans' encampment begin on Wednesday afternoon, August 14th, and end on Saturday morning, the 17th, though there is a possibility that the time may be extended to make the outing ten days. t - ; !- r Capt. James I, Metta, commander of Cape Fear Camp No. 254, U. C. V., of this city, and a member with Capt; W. R. Kenan and Dr. J. E. Matthews, of the local committee of arrangements. yesterday received a letter from Maj. BL A. London, of Pittsboro, adjutant general of the N. C. Division Confeder ate Veterans, in which he stated that practically all arrangements had been made for the outing for J the soldiers,. which some days ago appeared very improbable. aCaj.London has succeed ed . in securing ' from all the rail roads in the State a rate ' of one oenta mil for' veterans, their families and all others, who desire to attend. Tickets will be sold on the 12th, 13th and 14th of August, with final limit August 24th, one continuous passage. Maj London says that to guard against impostors he will require every person applying for accommoda tions in the tents to show a certificate from his Camp Commander or from the Clerk of the Court in oounties in which there is no camp, certifying that be is a veteran who served and retired from the service honorably. A general order covering these facts will be issued in a few days and an effort will be made to have very large attendance,'. Veterans are notified' to carry or buy their own provisions and they may rent : cots from the furniture houses in Wil mington. The railroad rate is the same as that given to companies in the State Guard. . The First Regiment of the State Guard will go out of camp on Wed nesday inortoiog;,- 14th insL, and it is proposed to have the veterans come in on the afternoon of the asme day. - Major London in a recent letter to the press says in connection with the encampment: "The tents will accommodate near ly one thousand persons and there will be cooking stoves sufficient for that number. The veterans must furnish their own rations, . which they can either carry . - with - them or pre pare at the encampment. It would be ' well for each camp, or delega tion from each county, to form messes. Each tent is eight feet square and has a plank floor and two blankets. If cots are desired tbey must be rented for the occasion. Thoee veterans desiring bet ter accommodations can get them at the hotels and boarding houses. : At this reunion the annual election of Division and Brigade commanders will be held by the duly accredited del egates from the U. C V. camps which have paid their dues in full. A nnm ber of camps have not paid and their attention is called to this with the hope that they will promptly pay up.", Races ArsJa Poslseaed.

For the second time this week the Champions lost to-day to the Turtles. : It was gen erally conceded that they were going to lose before "play ball" was called, for victory with Meade as umpire was impossible. 1 ".-' It is true that the Turtles would have obtained, a . victory anyway, for Willig was hit hard, an d often, while Clayton assisted- with errors, but It would have been hotly Contested had Meade surprised r himself and given fair decisions. But such is not his composition and the inevitable hap pened. In the second inning he would not permit , LeGrande to fan though the ball was directly over the plate and so apparently so that the inimitable "Bill D." admits it. Both second and third bags were covered with one man down. LeGrande step ped to the pan and threshed the air twice. The next ball up split the plate, but Meade would not see it, and on the next ball "Bill" hit to Clayton, who erred and one run was tallied with still two bags occupied. Person next up hit to Frost, who if two men had been out, as should have been, in that case he would have played it. safely to first, but 'under existing circumstances he threw it wildly to horn, and thus two more men crossed the rubber. , Willig then gave up plenty of bits and in the next Inning was relieved by Allen, who twirled good ball. Many of Meade's decisions were so decidedly . yellow that the fans gave him the horselaugh. A protest will be filed against him to-night by the Wilmington manage ment. ' - - "'" - " "t - The team leaves to-morrow after , noon for Charlotte. Meade fined Dev lin $3 in Friday's game for protesting against a decision. . Catcher Thackara, though captain of the team, was fined $7 to-day for calling Meade down on the rank LeGrande decision. He only exercised this "right as captain and was alone in . protesting when the fine was imposed. Manager Cowan to night gave Pitcher Willig ten days' notice of his release. ; THE SCORE BT INNIHGS. 123456789 R H E Wilmington..20 0001011 5 7 4 Raleigh......! 5 1,2 0 1 0 0 10 11 6 Batteries: Willig, Allen and Thack ara; Person and LeGrande.' .
