X36L Edward Bavage Latimer, a well known and highly esteemed citizen of Wilmington, died last evening at 6 qjplock at his home, 308 North Third street, after a lingering illness of sev eral months. Only this; week'. OoL Latimer re turned - from a sanitarium in Balti more, where he was under treatment of some of the most skilled physicians in the country, but all in vain. He gradually grew worse after bis arrival at home and bis death came not wholly, unexpected, bnt as a -shock , to his family and numerous friends here and elsewhere"-" ;. ;-"; ' 'i1- '.'..I .. CoL Latimer was ,born in Wilming ton on September 25th, 1857, and was therefore in the forty-fourth year of his' age. His parents were the late Mr. Zebulon Latimer and Mrs. Eliza beth Savage Latimer, the latter now surviving him. His father died at an advanced age in the year 1881. CoL Latimer's early education was received from the Bev. Daniel Morrelle, a well known instructor in his day. Later, he entered the Columbia Law School and graduated from that -institution in 1879. Soon after graduation he en tered the law firm of Stedman & Lati mer, which was composed of Major Chas. M. Stedman and a brother, Mr. William Latimer. This was in the year 1881. On June 1st of the year preceding, he was married in Hills boro, N. a, to Miss Anna Giles Huske. She, with two charming young daughters. Miss Anabel, aged 16 years, and Miss Elizabeth, aged 13 yean, survive him and are tenderly sympathized with , by hundreds of friends. He is also survived by two brothers, Mr.iHenry a. Latimer, of Auburn, N. Y., and Mr. Win. Lati mer, of this city, i CoL Latimer jwas possessed of a genial and kind disposition; generous to a ifault; reserved in manner, and cherishing a very high sense of honor. All who knew him were his friends and few men. have lived and died in Wilmington with a more amiable char acter than was his. For the naat few years he has not been actively engaged on account of his impaired health. He always had a decided inclination to the military and was a colonel . upon the staff of Governor : Fowle. He had been, a member of the Wilmington Light In fantry and of thei Wilmington Divis ion, Naval BeMrvea.- At one time he was paymaster of the local division of the Reserves. In all of the organ izations he was deservedly popular for bis generous spirit and manly bearing. He served for one term as a member of the Board of Aldermen from the Fourth ward, a colleague of ex-Mayor Jno. J. Fowler. During a major por tion of his life, he was a member of the- Cape Fear Club, this city, the Carolina Yacht Club, Wrightaville Beach; the Eacquet Club, of New York; Chi Phi Fraternity at Colum bia College, and perhaps other social organizations. He was also identified with several secret orders, among mem being Orient Lodge of Masons, Planta genetCommandery, Knight Templars, the Bhriners, ' Clarendon ' Lodge, Knights of Pythias, and Eyota Tribe No. 5, Improved prder of Bed Men. CoL Latimer was the largest share holder until a short" time ago, in the Wilmington Seacoast Railroad and was its Traffic Manager for several terms. In all bis business dealings he was fair, generous and honest.

Wilmington played almost faultless ball, making but one error of a fumbled ball in the field.

C, August 28. The third and last game of the series with Tarboro resulted in a victory for the amateurs. The weather was bad and the game was all but prevented by rain, but at 5.15 P. M. a cessation in the storm allowed the game; to pro ceed, bnt with a very poor attendance. The home boys stood pat this time and won out with . professional assistance, using its regular home battery. - The game was won in the first inning principally on account of a wet ball and bad condition of the grounds. The game was called at the end of the sixth inning on account- of darkness. Lehman, in the box for the Babies, captured the grand stand. Tarboro leaves in the morning for Goldsboro.
