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.
The funeral will be conducted this
afternoon at 5:30 o'clock from 8t
James' Episcopal church and the in
terment will be in OakUaie cemetery.

The train from Fayetteville consisted
of seven coaches which brought about
400 people. There were almost as many
more left along ihe route who could

Newbebn, N. C, Aug. 28. The
greatest ball ever played here was
witnessed to-day although , the home
team broke in the ninth inning and
allowed &the Wilmington Giants to
score six runs. Wilmington played
almost faultless ball, making but one
error of a fumbled ball in the field.
Newborn had the visitors- guessing
until the fatal ninth when they played
fierce ball on account of Newborn'
having Bush, of Tarboro, in' the box.
Bush caught the fancy of the grand
stand while Gettig, at short stop, was
faultlessr The same clubs will play
here again to-morrow. Wilmington
will have Warren in the ' box and
Newbern will pitch Gettig. Newbern
expects to strengthen some weak
spots.
The Wilmington club was treated
to a moonlight excursion on the
Neuse river to-night. .

KiHSTOir, N. 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.

captured the grand stand. Tarboro
leaves in the morning for Goldsboro.

It WiU Arrive Ahoat Nooa and
Until To-morrow Niht
Onlj one excursion is scheduled to
arrive in the city to- day. - It will come
from Raleigh and the train will leave
that , city at 7 o'clock this morning,
reaching the beach about noon. Pas
sengers will be taken as far this way
as Lumberton, and the' railroad trip
rate of $2 will doubtless attract a large
crowd. ": -
The party will be in charge of
Weathers and Christian, and will re
turn, leaving Wilmington at 7:30 P.
M., to-morrow,
An excursion, conducted by Hatch
Bros., .will reach the city from Bock.
Ingham to-morrow.
A Feature Snifested.
A great addition to the attractions
for the Elks' carnival would be a pro
cession of eight or ten street cars,
running over the. entire line ' of the
street railway, and all brilliantly illu
minated and handsomely decorated.
It would not interfere with the regular
schedule more than an hour, perhaps,
and it is safe to sav that the cars would
be well filled with passengers. -This
feature might be scheduled for the
second or third night from 9 to 10
o'clock. . ;- - . ; '
