Grounds Around the Magnificent Institution Will be Improved and Beautified. MANAGERS MET YESTERDAY. The New Balldlsg Now About Ready for Occnpsscy Will be Heated by Qs The Proceedings of the Boors'. Now that all the furniture for the splendid James Walker Memorial Hospital has been 'put in place and the new building made practically ready for occupancy, the Board of Managers has turned its attention to the matter of beautifying the grounds about the institution. The matter of improving the prop erty received consideration at some length yesterday at the regular month ly meeting of the Board of Managers which was held at the hospital. The grounds were looked over by members of the Board and it was seen that Na ture has made it possible for the con version of the place into an ideal spot ndeed. The front lawn will be nicely terraced and planted in grasses and flowers. Walks will be laid out and made as pretty as possible. The new fencA has recently been comple ted and when the grounds shall have received the attention the Board wishes to give them, there will be nothing left for the public to desire. ; The matter of improving the grounds was left at the meeting yesterday to a special committee consisting of Dr. Thos. R. Little, Dr. W. J. H. Bellamy and Mr. W. H. Sprunt. Other business considered by the Board yesterday consisted principally of the approval of the usual bills for current expenses and an examination and approval of the report of Dr. Little, the superintendent. The small house on the south side of the old hospital building being- no onger needed, the Board decided to sell the same and have it removed from the premises. The Murchison National Bank was designated as the depository for the hospital funds. Dr. Little and the hospital corps have not yet moved into the new building and are still occupying the old one. All the furniture, apparatus, etc, is, however, in readiness in the new building and Dr. Little hopes to move this week. It only remains for the gas mains to be laid to the building and fixtures installed, and this work will be done just as early as possible. All the heating will be by gas, thereby ensuring neat, eleaa and comfortable service. CITY BOUGHT BLOOD HOUNDS. Two Were Ordered by Telegraph by Chief Farloav Yesterdsy Mora 1st. The City of Wilmington has acted upon the suggestion of the Stab and has purchased two thorough-bred blood hounds for trailing criminals. The Mayor, after a consultation with a number of the Aldermen yesterday, authorized Chief Furlong to purchase two trained hounds that were offered for $25 each by Dr. T. F. Meisen heimer, of Morven, N. O. Dr. Meisen heimer wrote Chief Furlong that the dogs offered were the same hounds that trailed and captured the negro rape fiend in Anson county some months ago and were thoroughly re liable. Chief Furlong ordered the pair by telegraph at once. The county is also on the-lookout for a pair ofgood hounds and will doubtless make a purchase this week. The "Losdoi Wharf Sale. A deed evidencing the recent sale of the "London wharf to Mr. D. u. Gore by John W. Fries, receiver of the North State Improvement Com nanv. was filed for record yesterday. The property is described in the deed as beginning at the northwest inter section of Chesnut and North Water streets and running thence north- wardlv along the western line of North Water street about 163 feet to the line of a lot formerly belonging to E. P. Hall, thence westwardly with skid last named line to the run of Cape Fear river; thence southwardly with the line of the wharf to the northern line of Chesnut street, and thence eastwardly with said line about 194 feet to the beginning. The consideration is $10,000. A Special WUmlnrton Editios. Messrs. Richard Battle and O. J.

DEATH OF MRS. W.A. M'GUIRE Af ed Lady and Oace Resides! of WIlBlof- toa Passed Awsy Yesterdsy is Fay etteville Foaeral To-morrow. Friends in the city will learn with sorrow this morning of the death of Mrs. William Ann MeGuire, which occurred at her borne at the residence of the late 8heriff Geo. A. Burns, of Fayetteville, at 18:45 o'clock yester day afternoon. The remains, accom panied by Mr. J. K. Milligan, of Syracuse, N. Y., a warm friend of the deceased lady, arrived in Wilmington last night over the A. & Y. railroad and were taken to the residence of Mr. W. P.

Dennen, of Wil mington; Father Marion, of Fayette ville, and Father Price, of Raleigh. Mrs. MeGuire was born in Charles ton, 8. 0., September 20, 1819, and was, therefore, in the 83rd year of her age. She was relict of the late John MeGuire, of Fayetteville, who died many years ago in that city. Mrs. MeGuire removed with her family to Wilmington before the war and lived for several years alternately in this city and in Fayetteville. She then moved with her family to Maryland but returned in the seventies to Wil mington, where' she resided until she removed to Fayetteville permanently about 10 years ago. . , Mrs. MeGuire was wealthy in her early and middle life and was noted far and wide for her great charity and deeds of kindness to humankind. Thousands of dollars were contributed by her to deserving objects and many now living can testify to her generos ity. She was a devoted church-woman and lived a life of good works. She had two sons but both have passed away. One of them was Prof. John MeGuire, of Villa Nova College, in Pennsylvania, and the other was Mr. Hugh MeGuire, who died some years ago in Fayetteville. Both of them were buried here. SIR WALTER RALEIGH. Interestisx Historical Address by Noted Chlcsg o Clergynsa Besatlf a! Intro duction by Dr. BIsckwell. Those who attended Dr. Fox's lec ture at the Y. M. C. A. last evening enjoyed a rare historical treat His subject, "A Neglected Cavalier," had in it that measure of! local interest, which, combined with the singularly refreshing and original style of the speaker to afford an evening of in struction and entertainment, seldom obtained. He has a broad range of literary knowledge, is well acquainted with ancient and modern productions. has a rare appreciation of the beauties of nature, and a power for vivid and realistic word picturing that is won derful. I In introducing the distinguished speaker. Dr. Calvin S. Blackwell, the eloquent pastor of the First Baptist church, said ; j "Ladies and Gentlemen: However other communities and States may neelect the name and fame or the most chivalrous cavalier of the Elisa bethinian age. North! Carolina will not let the world forget tnat Liord Raleigh was the knightliest of them all. Every wave of the Atlantic that beats upon the shores of our Roanoke island sings unceasingly for us the sad requiem of 'Raleigh's Lost Col ony.' There, in our sands and be neath our pines, lie buried his bright est dreams. But yonder the noble brow of our State capital is cinctured with his imperishable name. . "The ventures of. Lord Raleigh gave to our State the proud distinc tion of having born upon her soil Vir ginia Dare, the first white child to open its eyes to the light of the new world. "We have assembled to-night to gladly greet the distinguished gentle man from another State, who comes to rescue from partial oblivion and to render a just tribute of renown' to our own patron saint. We wait impa tiently to hear the thrilling story of our world 'Ne sleeted Cavalier,' re told by Dr. D. F. Fox, of Chicago." PITIABLE CASe OP WHITE WOMAN. Mrs. Lizzie Phillips, Deneoted, Istaxises Other Chlldrea Are Her Own. Mrs Lizzie Phillips or Newsom, ia white woman a little past middle age who until recently was employed as a domestic at one of the Summer resi dences on the sound, was taken into keeping of the police yesterday on ac count of her insanity She came to Wilmington from Goldsboro about a year ago and until very recently was in possession of all her mental facul ties. She wandered from the sound to Mr. Geo. Branch's home at Thir teenth and Market streets and there her condition was realized and she was well cared for pending her transfer to the State Hospital, at Raleigh, Col. Jno. D. Taylor having a few days ago made an examination of her ease and recommended her admission into the asylum. - . - j - I She was doing very well until yes terday' morning, when she became more violent and her crazy imagining led her to believe that some girls next door were her daughters and needed chastising. She insisted on administer ing the punishment and the police had to be called to make her desist She is held at the police station. : .

STATE LEAGUE GATHERING. Edf ar J. Bear Will Represeat This City at Ralelzb To-slrtat Mskess Offer to Coatrol aad Assusk Respoasl Ullry of Local Team. The attendance upon the baseball meeting in the Elks' Temple last night was not large; in, fact, there were not more than twenty-five per sons present, but the contingent that was there was strongly representative of the class of enthusiasts in the city who generally pay something in cold cash toward the sport. As Col. Walker Taylor, whd was present substantially expressed it, the attendance would have been much larger had not the impression gone abroad that Mr. Rivers' $300 proposi tion had settled the matter and that a good article of baseball would be dished up practically gratis by a Lowell, Mass., man, from whom, however, nothing had been heard by anyone in the gathering. A different "modus operandi", was, thereupon evolved out of the minds of the cranks present, and Mr. Edgar J. Bear was found to be the man of the hour. The meeting effected an organization by the election as chairman of Maj. W. H. Bernard, late "V. P." of the 8tate league and "Hoes Editor" of the Stab, and the choosing of Mr. George Harold as secretary. A letter was read from President Busbee, of this year's State League, calling the State meeting in Raleigh to-night and outlining the plan of final organization. It is stated that each club will be allowed two repre sentatives who will be entitled to two votes in the meeting, and representa- j tives finding it impossible to attend j may send written proxies. It is also I stated that each club must be prepared to deposit $35 as admission fee, $10 of which is paid for protection under the National Agreement and the remainder goes to the expense fund. The question of entering the league was gone into at length but no one present was authorized to speak for the Massachusetts man or Manager Rivers. Mr. Edgar J. Bear, however, made a proposition to assume the re sponsibility of managing , and main taining a team throughout the season, provided $500 will be raised by popu lar subscription and the Street Rail way Company will hold good its propo sition to furnish an enclosed park and donate $200 to the fund, making a total of$700. This proposition met with favor at the meeting and several expressed the opinion that the $500 could be raised easily. There was next a general discussion of the outlook by Mr. Bear, CoL Tay lor, Maj. a H. White, Mr. George Harriss, Mr. Eugene Woodward, Mr J. a Blackley, William J. Bellamy, Esq., and others. Mr. Bear agreed to represent Wilmington at the meeting in Raleigh to-night, and a motion at length prevailed,- appointing him to the position, and an amount sufficient to pay all expenses was pledged by a number of gentlemen present Mr. Bear was instructed to report at a more general outpouring of the local fanatics to be held Saturday night in the Elks' Temple. Every lover of the sport in the city is cor dially invited to attend the meeting and if Mr. Bear's report is favorable, apian will be set on foot at once to raise the $500 needed. The meeting in Raleigh is to be held at 8 o'clock in the Capital Club and the purpose is to go into the details of the coming season, to make rules and regulations, to talk over the umpire problem and arrange the playing schedule. The question of umpires will be one that will require serious attention. There are three to be named, and the success of the season depends largely upon the manner of men who inter pret the rules and their control of the players. A Raleigh enthusiast sug gests that power be placed in the hands of the 8tate League president, or with a protest committee, to fine any umpire who fails to inflict the proper fines upon offending players, i It is expected that the season will begin about May 15th. The cities from which delegates are expected at the meeting are Charlotte, Durham, Greensboro, Wilmington, Newborn and Raleigh. i ' -MMeHSSSTBS94BkBtBWMM , , ..... f A Carpeater Isjared. t Mr. F. S.

Up to the time of the disappearance of the money they were believed to have been perfectly honest Mr. Merritt, the manager, said yesterday that he bad received no information as to the whereabouts of the young men. The two clerks didn't report for duty Monday, and it was learned during the day that parties bearing their de scription bought tickets to Richmond Sunday night Suspicion rested upon them immediately as Mr. Merritt was certain he locked the safe Saturday night and it was open Monday morn ing. One of the young men knew the combination. . "sssassBsssV Front Street Runaway. There was an exciting runaway on Front street yesterday afternoon.
