Those who are accustomed to look

despite all the idle talk one hears on
the streets about its being so awfully
hot. Thursday, for instance, was re

but the record shows that Wilmington
was even then very cool compared
with other places in the State. The
maximum temperature was 87 degrees

CAMP MEETING LAST NIGHT.
W01 Parchase Clark's Regimental His
tories aid Moore's Roster of N. C.
Troops Several New Mem
bers Were Received.
An adjourned regular monthly meet
ing of Cape Fear Camp No. 251, 17. a
V., was held last night at the W. L. I.
armory and a number of important
matters were under consideration.
Principal among these, perhaps, was
the question of a change in the date of
Memorial Day from May- 10th to
Jefferson Davis' birthday; June Sd, as
recommended by the United Confed
erate Veterans at their recent reunion
in Dallas. Many of the subordinate
camps throughout the South have
adopted the later date, beginning next
year, and the question has received
thorough consideration here. At the
meeting last -night, after some discus
sion, it was ordered that the entire
matter be referred to Cape Fear Chap
ter, Daughters of the Confederacy, with
the information that whatever action
they may deem best to take, will meet
with the approval of the Camp.
Another feature of the proceedings
last night was an order that a full set
of Judge Walter Clark's regimental
histories and Moore's Roster of North
Carolina troops in the Civil War be
purchased and placed in the library of
the Wilmington Light Infantry, with
the consent of the latter body.
Capt. R. M. Mclntyre presented a
very feeling resolution upon the death
of Dr. B. M. Palmer, of New Orleans,
chaplain of the Army of Tennessee
and an officer well known and loved
throughout the South.
Applications from a number of per
sons desiring membership in the
Camp were read and nine of the same
were accepted from- the following:
Owen Fennell, J. G. Skipper, R. A
Corbett, J. Q. Boney, Sol Bear, C. EL
Ward, B. R. Russell, T. D. Meares
and M. K. Smith.
Commander James I. Metts pre
sided at the meeting and Capt. A. L.
DeRoaset, adjutant of the Camp, kept
the record. The meeting was fnll of
enthusiasm and adjournment was had
subject to call of the Commander.
IMPROVEMENT TO CUSTOM SERYICE.
Property Tbat Will Be Bonrht Mr. Bel
lamy's BUI as to Appraisement.
The Star yesterday mentioned the
fact that the House had passed Mr.
Bellamy's bill authorizing the Secre
tary of the Treasury to purchase the
Parsley property adjoining the Custom
House, in this city, but was in error in
locating the same. It should have
been next north of the Custom House
and the wharf in front, instead of next
south as stated. Sixteen thousand
dollars is appropriated and so much as
is necessary may be used for the pur
chase. The property desired includes
a two-story brick building and the
wharf adjoining the custom house
property. All claims against the
government must be waived in the
sale.
The House Committee on Ways and
Means has reported favorably the bill
introduced by Congressman Bellamy
allowing the port of Wilmington to
import dutiable merchandise through
the port without appraisement The
measure will have the effect of putting
Wilmington on the same footing. with
all the large ports In the country; such
as New York. Norfolk and New

FIFTH GEORGIA REGIMENT.
la Cordial Letter to Passeorer agent Chris-
tian Atlanta Constitution Speaks
Kindly of Encampment Site.
Governor Ayeock has written the
following letter to Assistant General
Passenger Agent W. E. Christian of
the S. A. L. in regard to the encamp
ment of the Fifth Georgia Regiment
at Wrightsville July 17th-27th :
'My Dear Sir: I am verv viarf thA
Fifth Georgia Regiment is coming to
North Carolina. I hone that their
stay may be very pleasant. If we
were holdinc an encamnment this
year I should try to hold it at the same
time and place so as to let our boys
meet and know the Georgia boys, but
we do not hold an encampment this
year. Please extend to them a cordial
Invitation from the State of North
Carolina to enter noon her territory
and possess the same. Express to them
my very best wishes for a pleasant
and profitable encampment. I shall
be glad to do anything in my power
to make their visit to us agreeable.
You have but to indicate what ean be
done in this way to secure my co-operation.
I shall very gladly errant the
required permission unon the aoDlica-
tion of the Governor of Georgia for
their entering into the State of North
j Carolina. I am, with best wishes and
kindest regard to you personally, very
truly yours, Chas. B. Aycook,
"Governor of North Carolina."
The Atlanta Constitution of yester
day says: "The site for the encamp
ment has been selected on the Ham
mocks, an island between the main
land and a peninsula strip. Between
these is Wrightsville sound, which
flows in from the ocean, and beyond
the atrip of beach is the Atlantie
ocean. Un the strip of beach are cot
tages, club houses and hotels facing
the ocean, within 200 yards of the surf.
in Wrightsville sound proper Is what
might be called still water, subject only
to the fluctuations of the tide. On the
island, deeply shaded with live oaks,
the regiment will have such seclusion
as is desirable, together with the facil
ities afforded for moonlight sails, fish
ing parties and trips to and from the
oeacn on a trolley line passing the
island every fifteen minutes. In addi
tion to this the regiment will be fur
nished with sail boats and fishing
tackle for leisure moments, and the
hospitable city of Wilmington will
have its doors open to the gallant sons
of Georgia during their stay."

Improvement at Police Station.
A gateway to the police station
downstairs at the City Hall has been
cut in the iron fence enclosing the
building and a neat walk' is being
made from the street to the door. The
day hall officers under the direction of
Chief Furious: are making the im
provements. Heretofore if one had
business at the police station, he would
have to ascend the steps leading to the
! main entrance of the City HalL, then
descend a sharp declivity to the right
and next go down another stretch or
steps into the station. Most of the
climbing process is now "cut out" and
the nubile generally welcome the

Special Star Telegram.
Durham, N. C, Jane 28 In a very
poor game of ragged ball playing Dur
ham defeated Wilmington in the
game this afternoon. Errors abounded
on both aides and the game was unin
teresting from a scientific standpoint.
The visitors had six to their credit.
while the Durham team made four.
The hits were eight to six in favor of
the visitors. Krause, who was in the
box for Wilmington, allowed nine
free passes to first and in tbe eighth
inning, after he had allowed four to
walk and forced one man home, he
was relieved by Mace. In the next
inning Mace allowed one pass and ad
vanced a man by a balk. Durham
also played a rocky game. Had the
home team put up the same game that
was played yesterday the runs would
have been a score or more.
Morris pitched a fairly good game.
but allowed three free passes and
struck out three men. Two hours and
five minutes was the time of the game.

Unnecessary for the Umpire
To Play His Usual Game.
We outbatted them, but
Those Durham Shorthorns are a
bully lot.
The horse editor will hazard twen
ty cents on Wilmington to-day.
Nothing was heard from " Wallle"
Warren last night or yesterday.
Dommel and McGlnnis each made
two hits out of four times at the bat.
The only two base hits of the game
were made by Holland, and Dommel.
Anyhow, Wilmington will win
in the B. B. game to be played at
Hilton Park next Tuesday.
Why, certainly we'll "get 'em to
day If the reconstructed play as they
did here last Saturday.
In the eloquent but melancholy
words of Gustavus Adolphua Robinson :
ni Wr what an the matter bet"
If Karns doesn't fool those Balls
with his lazy drops to-day we'll have
s a w -
to rive 'em un until they come here
next week,
Wilmineton made eight hits to
six for Durham; six errors were quite
enough to make it unnecessary for the
umpire to "play his usual game "
The team which left here this
week to play Bennettsville, S. O , re
turned in part yesterday. The boys
won't give any figures, but rumors
av they were overwhelmingly de
feated. I
The rejuvenated are evidently re
serving their strength for the en
counter with Charlotte next week. If
they will take two out of three from
the Hornets and down the Durham
Bulls to-day, all will be forgiven.
The colored excursion which ar
rives in the city to-day will bring a
ball team which will be engaged at
Hilton Monday afternoon by the
"White Caps" of Wilmington, under
Capt. Tom Brown. A game may pos
sibly be arranged' for this afternoon.
Referring to the deadly conflict
to be waged at Hilton Park next Tues
day between the Benediots and the
Bachelors the horse editor says he'd
like to know where the widowers come
In. If they have a spark of manhood
left, ho weyer, they will resent this
light by nlaving nincr-Dong with the

CHARLESTON WANTS
After She is. Repsired st Norfolk Sonth
Carolinn Naval Miiltln Will Apply to
the Government for the Ship.
In view of the fact that the U. S. S.
Hornet has been ordered to Norfolk
for repairs and the North Carolina na
val militia has made application for a
lighter draft vessel that can navigate
the sounds and streams of the 8tate,
the South Carolina Naval Reserves are
preparing to make application for the
ship and it appears they stand a good
chance of securing her. The Charles
ton Post says:
"A member of the Charleston mi
litia suggested to-day that the South
Carolina authorities should send their
application to the Navy Department
immediately for the Hornet. When
the repairs are completed she will be
practically a new boat and will not
need attention for a long time to come.
It will consequently cost but little to
maintain her, and excellent training
will be afforded the reserves by secur
ing the vessel. A training ship would
popularize the service considerably,
the member said, and the slight cost of
maintenance would be more than off
set by the Increased membership and
the greater efficiency and popularity
of the service."
THE BACHELOR-BENEDICT GAME.
Postponed Until Toesdsy Afternoon When
There Will Be Added Festnres.
The Bachelor baseball team which
was advertised to do battje with the
Benedicts at Hilton Park this after
noon announced yesterday that the
game would be postponed until Tues
day of next week. No reason was as
signed for the postponement beyond
the fact that the Benedicts had to take
"the children" to the Beach Saturday
but Dame Rumor says the delay is to
give the Bachelors time to practice
and that several of the stars are already
hieing themselves away to the woods
to get in ahape for the mighty

over his body and several bruises were

Harrison and James Gillespie were

Now, therefore, I, Charles B. Ay
cock, Governor of the State of North
Carolina, by virtue of authority in me
vested by law, do issue this my procla
! mation, offering a reward of four hun
dred dollars each for the apprehension
and delivery of the said parties un
known or any of them to the sheriff of
1 Rowan county at the court house in
Salisbury, with evidence sufficient to
convict and a conviction, and I do en
join all officers of the State and all
good citizens to assist in bringing said
criminals to justice.
