North Carolina Elka to the number of a hundred or more will more upon Baltimore for the annual reunion this week. The delegation from Wilming ton will perhaps not be so large as was expected, but Its enthusiaam-will make up what is lost numerically. The local contingent will leave on the 7 o'clock A.OLL train this evening in a special Pullman car and among thoae In the party will be Past Exalted Buler William J. Bellamy, represen tative from Wilmington Lodge No. 533, and president of the State Asso ciation ; Exalted Buler Ike W. Solo mon, Dr. Chas. T. Harper, a W. Polvogt, H. J. Gerken, Thos. EL Wright, Julius P. Taylor, Isadbre Bear, '.George Honnet, and Dr. L. P. Aaron, of Mount Olive. Besides the regular Pullman, an extra sleeping car will be put on the train. Another Pullman will be added at Goldsboro, with the contingent from that city, Kinston, Newbern and another places along the line. At Rocky Mount vestibule train No. S3 will pick up the three sleepers, making a long train. Nearly every lower berth In the two Pullmans from Wilmington haaa been reserved. It is expected that at least 50 or 60 tickets will be sold from here. . All of these will not be Elks, aa many business men from Wilmington and this section will ad advantage themaelvea of the cheap rate. The first app will be in Washington where all the North Carolina delega tion and many others from the South will rendezvous for the final move on the Monumental City. It will be a great meeting and Baltimore ia pre paring to care for its guests royally. An outline of the programme was printed in these columns last Sunday. Yesterday's Baltimore Sun aays that the final meeting of the executive committee in general charge waa held Friday night After the meeting Chairman Knapp said that the reports showed that without doubt this was going to be the greatest .convention ever held under ' the auspices of the order and that the committee desired to express Its thanks to the citizens of Baltimore generally for their co-operation In the effort to make the re union a success. That it will be such, he said, Is now Unquestioned. Con tinuing the Sun says: "At dark to night the electric cur rent will be turnedl;nto thousands of lamps distributed throughout the downtown streets and on many of the business Ihouses and public buildings. and the grand illumination in honor of the Elk's reunion will be under way. "For more than a montn prepara tions for the display hare been going on. Tne illumination tnat exciteaso much admiration comment during the Siengerfest hare all been retained, and In addition a number of beautiful and spectacular features have been added to the street display and many of the business men who did not decorate for BaeBngerfest have beautified their E laces with yards of bunting and undreds of electric lights, while those who did decorate hare enlarged and altered the designs, making them more beautiful and appropriate ror ine oc casion. "On every hand the purple and white of the Elks can be seen, and at many places heads and even bodies of the animal, full grown, stand out in bold relief from some ornamental de sign. Judging from the illuminations and decorations, Baltimore win do lnnvtA the Elka next week, and Its citizens will Tie with each other in do ing them honor." NOTORIOUS SSEAK THIEF. CIsreace Crawford Is Umbo for Lsrceay Committed Three Yesrs A to. Clarence Crawford, colored, who haa aeveral aliases, was bound over to Superior Court by Justice Fowler yea- terdav In default of $100 bond to answer the charge of the larceny of a watch from Mr. Jno. H.Sweeney at the Clarendon Water Works pump ing station in 1900. The watch was sold to a negro and subsequently traded to a Mr. Wallace at the Hilton Lumber mill, who t) reduced the property In court and assisted Mr. Sweeney in making out the case against Crawford, who has an unenviable reputation In the community aa a sneak thief. He cun ningly said he did not steal the watch but traded for It with Dan Shines the negro who was cut to death last Feb ruary by the Thomas boys, now scry ing a term In the penitentiary for the crime. Crawford may also be charged later with breaking into the office of the Hilton Lumber Co., and stealing a watch from Mr. Jere Hand. Resl Estate Trsssfers.

Very Serioos Condition Confronts Wil mlaitoa Lifht lafsstry Appeal to Employers-Lesves Wedaeidsy. j Avery aerio us condition confronts the Wilmington Light Infantry, and unless employers of its members re spond quickly and favorably to an ap peal made officially by Capt. A. P. Adrian in another column, the city is likely to awake some fine morning without any military organization, save the Naval Reserves. Under the new military regulations each com pany ia required to carry into en campment 75 per cenL of its enlist ment of men under penalty of dis bandmenL "As previously noted, the encamp ment this year begins at Morehead City, Wednesday of this week and con tinues through Tuesday of next week. The Light Infantry haa received or ders to move next Wednesday after noon at 3:40 o'clock, via Newbern, with the Maxton company, which arrives at 13:80 over the Seaboard Air Line, and up to this time, although diligent effort has been exercised, Capt. Adrian has been unsuccessful in securing, the re quisite number of men to entitle the W. L. I. to enter the encampment The chief obstacle is the unwilling ness of employers to release their employes for the six days' absence required. Capt' Adrian appeals to employers of members of the com pany, for the public welfare to contri bute six days' leave of absence. The responses should be rapid and cheer ful, j The boys will return from camp on a special train leaving Morehead City at 7:30 A. M. Tuesday, July 38th, and arriving here via Newbern. The Maxton company while passing through the city will be entertained at the armory of the W. L. I. BREAK CAMP T0-M0RR0W. Boys' Brlfade Has Hsd Fiae Outlor at Soatbport Some Reilectioos. Camp George, Southport. N. G.. July 18. Our sixth annual encamp ment is drawing to a close, bringing with it a realization of the great prlv lieges we enjoy and a sense of lour great Indebtedness to the employers of the members of our com pany for giving us this vacation. We hope and feel assured that the stand ard of our work in town will be raised by this outing, for upon this rests the success of the encampment. As individual members we are deep ly grateful to Colonel Walker Taylor. for we realize the sacrifices he haa made and ia making for our pleasure and benefit. May we ever merit his kindness. i As for the Southport people we owe them aa mueh as ever, but we shud der to think of what would happen if Wilbur Doaher wasn't closely related to every inhabitant of this delightful burg. Oh the girls I Well they have always stood by us. And not to mention our own beau tiful visitors from Wilmington would be a gross injustice. We can truth fully say that their presence has been no small factor in making our sixth encampment the most enjoyable one we have yet spent. Everr one is satisfied: the Meters kick no more; the fishermen are dally supplied with new material -for fish stories, and "Johnny Mack" alone yearns for "Dry Pond." i To-morrow (Sunday) will do a quiet day. Church, Sunday school and dreams of the past will occupy most of the time, and none of these are very exciting pastimes. KarJv Monday morning we win break camp, and Tuesday will find ua all at our places ready to take up "the white man's burden." In conclusion, the scribe will devote a few lines to himself. Considering his stale at birth (tired), and the re lapse taken, he haa aerved you to the beat of his ability, but asks no reward.

Nearly, 200 people witnessed the game of baseball at Hilton Park yes terday afternoon between those old time rivals, the O. A. N.' and A. O. L. team The score was four to two in fa0r of the railroaders, and the spec talors were delighted with (he manner of ball that was played. The alab ar tists were in their "ancient" form and very effective, few hits having been recorded by either aide. Gwaltney's base throwing was of ah especially high order, and it waa decidedly an inopportune time to purloin a bag while he waa at the receiving end of the battery. Smith pitched a good game but re tired from the box in favor of Pes scbau toward lue Utter prt of the contest. Tavlor. for the opposing nine, kepi his hits well scattered and reduced to a minimum.

In the entire length of the counter there are three tellers' windows and everything else looking to the conven ience of the patron. New and modern burglsr- proof vaults have just been added to the bank's splendid equip ment and all In all the "People's" haa taken a progressive step that's certain to be appreciated by the public. Brass electric fixtures are provided over each desk, so that comfort and convenien ces will belter equip the employes to watt upon the 'public with "neatness and dispatch."
