THE GAME WAS WITNESSED BT GOOD CROWD. /great ballIi store and Plymouth 8(MM / Ftar Ikr? Twadv aad ftm <1*7 of Rest Week. Games at Mew Base Ball Park. Aurora 5; Washington 4.. The Aurora baseball team again conquered the local aggregation In It well-fought game yesterday after noon -at Flemlni P*r The contest as usual wa? witnessed .by a good crowd of enthusiastic fans and not withstanding the (act that all kinds of "rooting" was indulged in, the Tlaltors came out one score to the good. The locals are now fast getting ltf shape for the opening of the season June 1 and ereryth In* points to a great season for the hAe boys. Both pitchers were there "with the goeds," being "who and who" until the final tally was made. Hsynss worth, hailing from Sumter, S. C., *waa given a "try-out" in the box and soon convinced his teammatea and ths bystanders that' he was an "old hand" at the business. Bennett, of Chapel Hill,, did the honors behind the home plate. The battery for the Tlaltors were Manning and Thomp son. next Tuesday Washington and Greenville will try conclusions on thf new grounds on Bonner ptreet at which time Washington expects to have her full line-up on the field. Considerable expense has been gone to towards fixing the new ball park and the News is glad to learn that It is now in first class shape. A comfortable grandstand has been erected. Greenville and Washington are old-time rivals on the., diamond so those who contemplate being pres ent may look for something spirited and exciting from start to finish next Tuesday. On next Thursday the locals will cross bats with the strong team from Plymouth. Plymouth has already this season mastered such strong teams as Hertford, Edenton and BIls abeth City and comes to Washing tori with a "bone In -her mouth." If Washington should win and here's hoping that 'she will, the boys surely will have something to boast of. Great ball next week. For the locals Menton held down the initial bag in great style yester day. He Is surely the right artist In the right plaoe. Picket as usual played a strong game at third while Phelps had nothin'g to be ashamed of at second. In fact the entire team, did creditable work. The tlsltors also "plsyed ball" as 1s their cus tom. The game was umpired by Mr. Tommle Litchfield, of Aurora. Right after the game. Bennett, who held down the home plate for the locals, was In the receipt of a cablegram from Porto Rico from his father calling him home. He left to day for his distant home carrying with -him the best wlsh4e of his teammates and the cltlsens general ly. It Is to be regretted that Mr. Bennett will not be with the locals any more this season. I~-'V y.--. , v.' - .1 CERMANS HAVE LOST 300,000 SAYS EXPERT (By United Pr?M) ' P*rl?. Mar 17. ?

Milwaukee, Hay J7.? -The Wle oonsin minority delegation to the Republican convention took steps today to smoke out Justice Hug;hea, and to ascertain his position on na tional Issues.

Governor Phlllpp Active. Governor Phlllpp, an avowed j Hughes man, was the leader in this move to obtain an expression from the Justice. It was realised the Governor was playing cArds as they might have been played by Hughe* himself when he obtained this con dition in the vote to support the Justice. Such a request lh inch a form would. It is thought here, give the Justice the opportunity to state his position without being accused of any reflection upon the place he holds on the Supreme bench. See Victory on Fourth Ballot. The Wisconsin delegation believes Hughes will be nominated early, probably by the fourth ballot. Gov ernor Phlllpp, however, phrased the attitude of the Hughes men them selves when h? thus explained the 'action or the conference: | .' "Before Mr. Hughes is nominated at Chicago he ought to define his vief b on the issues, before the coun try. Conditions have changed from rWhas they were the -last time Mr. Hughes gave expression to his views. ONE GITE88. Waahlngton, May 1 7.?
