A good crowd turned . out Wednesday afternoon at the Miller Park to witness tbe game between Concord and Cheraw, Tlie cornet band, as a compli ment to tbe baseball club and th visiting team, turned out in their white ducks to do well to the occabion. ' The attendants were doubly filled good ball and good music, Mr. Richmond Montgomery umpired the game and we are g'a 1 to say gave satiafaotion. Rogers scored the first run for our boys by a pass ball in the first inning. Malloy made a beautiful catch in centre field of Caldwell's fly, but Rogers re turned the compliment in an inning shortly afterwards. Rogers and LaGrande scored in the third inning. It's a treat to see La Grande shove a ball from home to second similar to the one whioh put down Finlayson. In the fourth inning three of our boys were on the bases and things were most promising but noonebutMisenheimer scored be fore "side-up." Cheraw failed to score until the fifth inning, whioh run was made by Malloy, the captain of the team. In this same inning Caldwell made a fine two-base bit and scored on an error. Mangum also scored. We failed to score in the sixth. Rogers was nearing home bnt was put out between second and third. It was LaUrande's luck to be left on third several times. Malloy made a fine two-base bit in the seventh, bringing home Evans, and also scoring himself. This made them three to our six. Caldwell made another two-base hit in the eighth. Rog ers and LaGrande were left on bases. Following is the score by in nings and the runs, hits and errors : Cheraw 0000102003 Concord 102120030 -9 B. E. Concoid 12 5 Cheraw 5 5 Mangum and, LaGrande com posed our battery Hall and Hudgcns for Cheraw. Mangum struck out 1 flail 4. I; was a good game of baseball not tbe best that has been p'ayed here but it was not an un interesting game by any means. Hall and Mangum both did good woik. Daily of 22nd. VICTORY AGAIN. The Cheraw Boys Failed to Sustain In mselves as Well in the Second Game-A Total of Fltteen Runs La Grande Sends It Over the Fence Heavy Hitting. Even if our -coys did beat in the first game with Cheraw, numbers of our people went to the park Thursday afternoon expecting a much closer fight as the Cheraw boys held their best pitcher until that day. But this failed to be true as they failed to come up to their standard of the previous day. In the first inning our boys sored five runs but allowed the Cheraw boys none. Another run was made by us in the second but still . the opponents received nothing but ciphers. Rut in the filth inking dpt. Malloy scored oue run for them. In this inning it se. mod that Cheraw would make several runs. Three men were on the bases and our boys had to play most carefully. But Duvall struok out and Rogers oaugbt Powell's fly, leaving Fin layson and 1'omlinson on the bases. In the next inning LaGrande showed tho audience how a ball can be parked, scoring himself and also Rogers and Weddington. Mangum also made a run this inning. Nice playing was done by both teams in thj eighth, neither side having scored and both teams worked a doublo play most Suc cessfully. In the last inning we scored one run and the Cheraw boys made two inns. The following is the score : r. n. e. Concord 12 18 4 Cheraw 3 4 9 Concord 51000410 1-12 Cheraw 00001000 2-3 One of the most noticeable parts of the score is the hits of onr team. The batteries had somewhat of astrucgle in the game more so than the dav before. Our battory was Weddin.ton and LaUrando Cheraws, Saunders and Malloy. Both pitchers strnok out five men. TuH vamo completed the arrangement of the managjment and the Choraw beys roturhed home Thursday night. STOCKHOLDERS MEET.

Allen Dead. News came here at 8 o'clock this (Friday) morning stating that Capt. S E Allen, of Winston, had died suddenly. This was a heavy shock, of course, to his family and near relatives at this place. He was in apparently good health and no cause for his death was stated. Mr. Allen married Miss Laura Fink, of this place, daughter of Mrs. Ann Fink. He leaves a wife and six children, one of whom is married Mrs. H L Saunders, of Sumter, S. 0.

Crack Flayers to a Man. The Statesville Mascot says this about onr team : "It is hard to make compari sons, for the the visiting team are crack players to a man, and Statesville is more than satisfied with the work. Rogers, captain, did good work tor the Concord team, and is an exceptional good player; Graves, of tho same team, made pretty good work of a foul fly on each day. The Public Part of Masonry. The eleotion of officers for the coming year in tbe Msonio lodge is no 8-cret, and benoe we will give our readers at least that much about the order. Mr. Jas. C Fink was eleoted Master; Jas.

About thirty couples attended and the visiting boys were given a de lightful evening, giving them a better ohance to become ac quainted with Concord's society The colored orchestra famished tbe mnsio for them.

The letter reoeived Thursday by Coroner Lentz from Mayor Smith, of Gold Hill, calling him to oome and investigate a ease of very probable murder, proved to be nothing more than a rumored tale, judging from the inquest. It was impossible to get anything against any person causing the death of the negro woman, but it was shown at the inqueBt that the woman herself very probable shortened her life by her inexpedient way of taking medicine, As stated, the inquest amounted to nothing, yet the county is put to the expense of a coroner's fee and tha pay of the jurymen Coroner Lentz and Dr. L N Burlevson returned home that night at a very late hour.
