Represeatatioa of the Coanfy la the State, j Cearressloaal and Judicial Bodies. . Preciact Executive Committee mea Will OrtiaIzeNotet. ; The New Hanover County Demo cratic Convention for the purpose of ratifying the action of the primaries held this week and for the appoint ment of delegates to the State, Con gressional and Judicial conventions will be called to order to-day at noon in the Court House. The conven tloa will be called , to order by Chair man E. F. Johnson, of the Demo cratic Executive Committee, and after a statement of the object of the meet ing a permanent organization will be effected. The convention will be made up of 119 delegates from the several wards and townships in the county as fol lows: First ward, 25; Second ward, 18; Third ward, 21; Fourth ward, 16; Fifth ward, 26; Cape Fear township, 2; Harnett township, 7; Masonboro township, 8; Federal Point, 1. The names of the delegates as chosen in the primary have already been printed n these columns. The delegates will vote in the' convention according to the vote polled in the primary, and will in turn elect delegates to the dis trict conventions reflecting the same support. To the Congressional Convention which assembles in Fayetteville, Aug. 20th, New Hanover is entitled to 59 delegates jmd 59 alternates. New Hanover county will be en titled to twenty -votes In the State Con vention, which will be held in Greens boro July 16 th. The basis is the vote cast for the Democratic candidate for Governor in 1900, and each county is entitled to one delegate for every 150 votes and fractions over 75 so cast. As New Hanover gave Aycock 2,963 votes, it will be seen that its vote in the State Convention will be twenty. Of these Clark, for Chief Justice, will be entitled to eleven and a fraction and Justice to eight and a fraction. The county is also entitled to 59 delegates and 59 alternates to the Ju dicial Convention for the Fifth Dis trict, which has not yet been called.

The pres ent very able solicitor, Bodolph Duffy, Esq., of Onslow, Is a candidate and will perhaps receive the unanimous endorsement of the New Hanover Convention. Another important matter to be at tended to after the convention to-day is the organization of the precinct ex ecutive committeemen by electing a chairman, who will be ex-officio a member of the County Executive Committee. This organization Is usually had just after the adjournment of the convention, i j Criminal Court Proceedlsts.

Strengthen,' the Watchword Harry Mace, seventeen years in pro fessional baseball, an ex-National League pitcher, a star twirler in the old Southern League as far baek aa 1886 and an all round baseball man, with a reputation the United States over, will engineer the fortunes of the Wilmington baseball team in the future, and that means we are to have a winning article of the national sport and an . aggregation of players that will be a pleasure to see on the dia mond, even in defeat, i Mr. Mace was employed to take charge of the teamlast night; to-day he will forward his resignation as an umpire to President Busbee in Ra leigh and to-night he will leave for Washington, Baltimore and Philadel phia to secure reinforcements which will join the team in Greens bora the last half of next week. Harry Mace is personally acquainted with Manager McGraw, of the Baltimore team in the big league, and he has promised to hold him a few good men. Besides Mr. Mace has several others "on his string" whom he will shoot down this way at once. Our new manager is a pitcher of ability himself, and, like Ashenback, of Oharlotte, he will go in the game two days a week. Mr.' Mace was employed by the committee, consisting of Col. Walker Taylor, Maj. W. F. Robertson and Mr. A. B. Skeldlng, appointed at the recent meeting of the local enthusiasts at the City Hall, and the finances of the team will be looked after by a lo cal executive committee, to be elected by subscribers as soon as a thorough canvass of the city is made for funds. In the meantime, Mr. H. J. Gerken continues as acting manager for the games here, and Mr. Bay Kennedy has . been employed to go to Baleigh and Greensboro with the team until Mana ger Mace can join them here for the nine games that, will follow the Raleigh-Greensboro series. Last night at the meeting the mem bers of the team were called in and paid in full for their services and ex pressed satisfaction at the. new adjust ment of affairs. They say they are going in the game at Hilton to win this afternoon with Dunn on the slab and as the guarantee to Newborn is thus far a little short the new, manage ment desires that the public afford the game this afternoon a liberal patronage so that the new subscriptions will not have to be touched. Every lover of the sport should be at Hilton for the game this afternoon. The canvass for subscriptions will begin to-day and the committee should receive every encouragement. The season will be later divided in half and Wilmington will start, perhaps July 4th. on an even footing in the second series. Col. Taylor and Maj. Robert son will look after the wharf in the way of subscriptions; Messrs. H. J. Gerken aad N. N. Davis will be up town and Mr. Ed. Boushee will look after the territory further up. The 8treet Railway Company will pay the balance of its subscription of $100 to the new management and the re mainder will be easily raised. Now is the time to subscribe. ST. PAUL'S PAROCHIAL ACADEMY.

The score was 4 to 3 in favor of New bern and the attendance was about 800 of the faithful. ! With the exception of the third in ning when Wilmington fell down and allowed the visitors to score three on error by Dommel at first,' a three base hit by Devlin with Fillman on a cush ion, a double by Bandolph with Dev lin on third and a single by "Beddy" Foster to left, the game was as pretty as one could wish to see. Only an. hour and fifteen minutes was consum ed in the playing. In the fifth Wilmington scored one on a two-base hit by Dommel and a single by Fjsher with none down, but Hutton, Brown and Lattin, next up, went out in their order. In the eighth, Newbern got one more, after Bandolph and Crawley were out on a single Jby Foster to left and another by Crawley j to centre, Laughlin going out, third to first j In the ninth, Dommel and Fisher, first up, came to the rescue, of the shipwrecked Sailors again and drove pretty singles which with a hit by Brown netted another run but with a man on second and third, Lattin was out second to first, and McCann, third to first Wilmington led in the hitting but the hits were not so well bunched, nor for so many bases as those of Newbern, and thereby hangs the tale.
