Afteraooa an dj Passed Away Within
Seyea Honrs-The Paaeral This
Afteraooa from Residence.
The community was shocked Tester
day afternoon to hear that Mr. IV T.
Pritchard had suffered a aevere stroke
of apoplexy, and last night the sorrow
Was intensified when it was -announced
that at 9:12 o'clock he had died as a
result of the attack at, his home, No.

He was employed as shipping clerk at

Oorbett Company, onNutt street, and
was about hi duties in the warehouse
when the first stroke came about 2:30
o'clock and prostrated him to the floor.
A colored porter saw him fall
and quickly notified his fellow em
ployer in the office. They came quick
ly to his side and sent him at once to
his home where Drs. Burbank, Har
ms and Bussell attended him. Very
soon after reaching home, however.

ed into unconsciousness and gradually
grew worse until death relieved him.
His physician's pronounce his death
due to cerebral apoplexy.

tist divine, and Mrs. Fannie Q. Pritch
ard, who now resides at Wrights ville.
Mr. Pritchard had been engaged at
various business occupations since a
young nan and was well known
throughout Wilmington and this sec
tion. He was of a jovial, good natured
temperament and all who came in
the circle of his acquaintance were his
friends. He had a noble conception
of the right and was honest to a degree
seldom attained in the business world.
He marriid Miss Claudia Gore, of this
city, and she with two- bright little
children, Edith and Thomas, aged
twelve and six years, respectively,

Twenty-fifth Anniversary Celebration sod
Entertainment of the Grand Lodre
Officers Last Eveoinr.
The celebration last evening by the
Wilmington councils of the 25th an
niversary of the founding of the Boyal
Arcanum order in America and the
social session in honor of distinguished
grand lodge officers who are here to
attend the Medical Society meeting,
combined to make one of the most in
teresting and pleasant lodge affairs
given in this city in some time.
There were more than a hundred
present and each one went home with
a higher conception of the benefits of
the brotherhood and an evening of
splendid entertainment and good fel
lowship. Dr. W. O. Galloway pre
sided in his most affable and distin
guished manner. In assuming his
! chair he called the officers for the oc
casion to their respective posts and in
troduced in happy style Dr. J. Howell
Way, of Waynesville, grand secre-
retary.
Dr. Way responded in a most felicit
ous speech and a 'grateful expression
to Dr. Galloway for his pleasing
reference to him and the "Land of the
Sky" from whence he came. He then
launched out into a brilliant exposi
tion of the benefits of Boyal Arcanum
and gave facts and figures to substan
tiate his statements. He also spoke of
the fraternal work of the order, and
closed amid much applause.
Marsden Bellamy, Esq., was the
next speaker, and Mr. H. E. Bonitx
prefaced a pleasing introduction of
Dr. W. EL H. Cobb, of Goldsboro,
grand medical examiner, with a sound
talk to young men and especially those
who have homes to protect. Dr. Cobb's
speech was much enjoyed and was
thoroughly practical. He referred to
the necessity for lodge attendance and
thanked the Wilmington brethren for
the cordial reception. The next speak
ers were Messrs. A. EL Paddison. J.
C. Morrison, A. L. DeBosset, N .
Jacobi and O. M. Whitlock. Mr.
Whitlock asked all charter members
of the Boyal Arcanum in Wilmington
in 1867 to stand up and (hose who
stood were: Messrs. J. Weill, N.
Jacobi, Sol Bear, A. Weil, Marsden
Bellamy and Dr. S. Mendelsohn.
Other remarks were made by Dr.
Mendelsohn, Dr. A. D. McClure and
Wm. J. Bellamy, Esq., after which
Mr. A. EL Paddison, of the committee.
invited the gathering to the second
floor of the building, where a sumptu
ous repast was served.
The exercises were held in Odd Fel
lows' Hall on Third street, and were
opened with a very fervent prayer by
Dr. Mendelsohn. The committee of
arrangements, which deserves un
bounded praise for the way in which
everything passed off, was composed
as follows: Cornelius Harnett Coun
cil, A. H. Paddison, J. C. Morrison
(secretary), Henry Burkheimer and
B. C. Sloan; Carolina Council, H. E.
Bonitx (chairman), James Hooper and
W. J. Toomer.

An ugly incident in the second in
ning in whioh Traeger, of the Baleigh
team, took the star role, robbed yes
terday's game of ball at Hilton Park of
all its life and turned victory to the
visiting team in a score of 7 to 2.
From best accounts from impartial
witnesses, the story of the trouble was
in this way: Charters came up and
was hit by a pitched ball. Two strikes
were called on Traeger in quick suc
cession and he yelled at the umpire.
Fisher came from behind the bat and
motioned across the plate the way the
ball had gone. With Fisher in front
of him Traeger either spit in Fishet's
face or puckered his lips, as is the
custom with some players on the field.
This naturally incensed Fisher and he
brushed the batter with his miL
Traeger retaliated by striking him
with the bat in his hand just over the
left hip near the kidney. The police
rushed quickly on the field and Chief
Furlong took Traeger, before a
crowd of excited men and boys
crowded the grounds. Fisher was.
in the meantime, prostrated to the
ground and Drs. F. H. Bussell and
Thos. B. Little were summoned to his
side. Traeger was taken off the field
by Chief Furlong and other officers,
and Fisher, after temporary treatment.
was sent to the hospital in a buggy.
Later in the afternoon Manager Barley
Kain, of the Baleigh team, deposited
$50 cash bond at the police station and
Traeger was discharged until to-day
10 a m when he will be given a prelimi
nary hearing before Mayor WaddelL
Fisher was doing very well at the hos
pital last night and his physicians say
he will be out today but it will be some
time before he can go in the game. He
expressed much regret at the occur
rence and wanted to see Traeger, who
also expresses regret over the affair.
The two players will likely get to
gether, have an understanding and re
main friends as before.
The little "scrap" had the effect to
take all the ginger out of the local
team and with the magnificent work
in the box and at the bat of Childa for
the visitors, victory easily fell the oth
er way, though at the beginning of the
game it looked like a walk-over for
Wilmington. The new men showed
up remarkably well. Lawson at short
is fast, very fast, and on the coach line
he is a power. O'Neill at second and
Hines in left field also are fast and
handle themselves like ballplayers.
They are in the game from start to
finish and against all odds. Krause,
the new pitcher, was not in the best
form yesterday under the circumstan
ces, but promises to improve upon ac
quaintance. After Fisher's disability yesterday.
Mathison took his position Jor one in
ning, Holland went to third and Man
ager Mace to right field. Mr. Robert
Gwaltney, who was. on tbe grounds in
citizen's dress, did the graceful thing
by hustling into a unuorm ana taring
Fisher's place in the following Inning.
He did nice work and was warmly ap
plauded for his action.
Deiters, an inflelder with Stocks-
dale at Durham, has been telegraphed
for and will be given a trial. He will
take Mathison's place at third while
Mathison will relieve Fisher behind
the bat,
Child's splendid work let the locals
down with a single hit and that was
by Hines in the first inning, after Bal
eigh had been retired in one, two,
three order. Holland flew to left and
Hines followed with the hit. Dommel
was safe on error of Childs and on
Lawson's high fly to right, Hines
crossed the pan, -Mathison flew to sec
ond, leaving Dommel on third.
The next run by the locals was se
cured by Krause, who got life on er
ror of short, a pass to Holland ; a fly to
the infield by Hines and on Dommel's
out to second. Krause scored. Law
son was next out in the same way.
Child's two-base hit with the cush
ion full on two hits by pitched ball
and a single by Boy scored three ia the
second inning.
In the fifth two more were added
another double hit by Childs, a single
by Pastoy a balk by Krause and a wild
throw to first. Soffle scored on
Krause'a dumb play In throwing to sec
ond to catch Hook. A single by Lat
tin, his steal to second and a two-bag
ger by Hook In the sixth inning let in
another run. The last score in the
ninth was on a double hit by Pastor,
first up, and a single by Charters after
two men were down. The more de
tailed game Is in these figures:

" Large Streams from

The attendance was nearly 600.
Our batters had a decidedly off-
day.
The game will be called promptly
at 4 o'clock.
Childs, for the Turtles, pitched an
excellent game.
Gwaltney, who succeeded Fisher,
played well behind the bat
The reduction of the price of ad
mission for ladies to 15 cents will
doubtless prove a trump card.
t Confusion over a fly ball, which
either the catcher or pitcher could have
taken, cost Wilmington three runs.
Krause did some very fine work in
the box, but he was not always alert
when the Turtles were between bases.
After the assault on Fisher, which
sent him to the hospital, there was
very little interest taken in the game.
- Well, we've an even 100 left.
"Tall oaks from little acorns grow;
large streams from little fountains
flow.
Fisher's popularity here was e vi-
denced by the hundreds of inquiries
made as to his condition after he was
sent to the hospital.
Don't be discouraged. The new
players made a good impression yes
terday, and they will improve on ao
quaintance. So to the game to-day.
Lattin released by Wilmington in

Handibou and Hutton were paid off

- The rare and radiant were well
represented, and it is hoped the un
pleasant incident of the game will not
keep any of them away to-day.
"Lightning never strikes twice in the

.PresidentiBusbee issued a call last
night for a meeting of the executive
committee of the North Carolina Base
Ball League in . Baleigh Thursday
night at 8 o'clock. It is presumed that
the Charlotte-Durham controversy
will have an inning.
Ashenback is amused at Dur
ham's protest against the Charlotte
team and says his players won't be
sworn unless all the players in the
league are taken before a "notary."
He says farther, presumably in the
nature of a threat: "Should we desire
to break away from the N. O. League,
the Southeastern League with clubs
at Knoxville, Asheville, Columbia,
Greenville, Spartanburg and Char
lotte would be organized. The rivalry
betweepNorth and South Carolina is
something fierce and the attendance
would be almost double that ia some
of the cities now in the North? Caro
lina League."
