It reads:
To the Members of Organized Labor:
Brethren: As you are undoubted
y aware, tho t'nited States Steel Cor
or.ition Is now waging a war against
orpanizevl lab-r by making the Amalga
mate.! Association tho subject on which
to begin operations. At our last con
vention It was unanimously decided to
ask the United States Steel Corpora
tion, when nettling their annual scale
with the Amalgamated Association that
they sign or recognize the scale of the
Amalgamated Association In all heir
mills. When he matter was broached,
tha was peremptorily refused. After
the holding of several conferences the
demand of our organization was modi
fled eo as to take In only the mills of
three of their constituent companies
viz: The American Sheet Steel Compa
ny; the American Tin Plate and toe
the American Steel Hoop Company

visitors was present anil the troops

All the flags In camp were at half

in r-view past the colonel ami his staff,

( harlotto Defeat Ralelah.
Tho first game of the present series
between Wilmington and Tarboro play
ed yesterday afternoon at Hilton park,
resulted in a decisive victory for the
visitors by the score of ten to two.
The game lacked "snap" and was
characterized by loose- and uninterest
ing playing. Tho visitors played good
ball and outclassed the locals at every
point.
Stewart could not have been In his
usual form as he yielded twelve hits
and gave three bases on balls, thougli
at times he was very effective and
struck out eight men: but a pitcher
naturally cannot do his best when the
support given him is ragged.
Now it is not The Messenger's pur
pose to adversely critize the team- It
has seemed, we know, to all, that lately
the team has not been playing the ball
they are capable of playing, but we
must remember that all teams have
days off and runs of several days of
bad luck. Tarboro had her season of
misfortune, and Charlotte anil AVil
minggton seem to be now in the midst
of theirs. We have no doubt but what
luck will change in a day or two and
then our boys will go on a victorious
trip and please their supporters.
The people are becoming a little dis
satisfied and discouraged, but they
should not do so.
The team will line up and do their
best. They are far more anxious to
win. than we are to see them win. Now
don't go and critisize tho the men and
"cuss" them out. It will do no good,
but will only serve to add discourage-

Wilmington scored her runs yester

Tarboro scored one in tho first, four

Stock DylnK of Blind Staggers
(Special to the Messenger.)
Raleigh. N. C August 12. The agri

New port, u. .. August 12. The Con
stitution c ovarcd the triangula course
of thirty miles today in "3 seer ids less
time than th Columbia. T' cham
I 'ion of '00, however, wins theV. ice on
time allowance by about 30 seconds.
No corrected time can be given, as the
boats have not yet been re-measured,
as required. In previous races" the
Constitution had allowed the Columbia
1 minute, 17 seconds. What changes
in measurement the new rig of the
Constitution has made it is not known,
but it is 'estimated she allows the old
boat only a few seconds less time, if
any. The finish today was the note
worthy and only exciting feature of
the contest. When within a mile of
the line the Constitution made a shoi t
tack that undoubtedly lost her the
race. Captain Rhodes put the Consti
tution about on a port tack, crossed
the Columbia's bow and tacked again.
While the new boat's sails were twice
shaken in stays, the Columbia, with a
good full, still on starboard tack, was
bowling along at good speed, headed
only a few hundred yards to the lee of
the line. The short time that the Con
stitution was gathering headway, after
the last tack, the Columbia reached
through her and went ahead, though
still slightly in the lee of the new
boat. It was an exciting moment and
every eye was strained to watch what
promised to be a finish full of sensa
tion. The Constitution put about and
made for the line. The Columbia fol
lowed a l once but the new boat, hav
ing a better iced at the time, was :
quicker in stays and was well away
while the old boat was tacking. She
luffed under the bow- of the commit
tee boat exactly one minute ahead of
the Columbia: but she had started 27
seconds ahead and thus in actual time
only beat the old boat 33 seconds.

NOTES OF THE GAME.
There were seven two base-hits made
yesterday, two by our men and five by
the vltors.
Morriss.-y will pitch for Tarboro In
the first game today ami Wolfe will do
the honors in the second.
Now man., Wilmington's new pitcher,
wires Manager Cowan that he can re
port to the club in Raleigh on Saturday
in time for that day's game.
Frost was nni in good condition yes
terday. He usually plays a fast and
errorless game. He has three errors
to his credit for yesterday's work.
Mace was umpire yesterday and his
decisions were fair- Weeks who um
pired very good games last week, left
for Charlotte to umpire the games
there.
The '-Red Birds" went down before
tho "Hornets" at Charlotte yesterday.
We hope Charlotte's luck has changed
and that Wilmington will start things
"rolling her way" this afternoon-
A double-header this afternoon. The
first will bo called at 2:30 and the sec
ond at 4:30. Hopkins and Allen will be
the pitchers for Wilmington. One ad
mission fee admits to both games.
Manager Cowan has signed Dom
mel, of Lancaster, Pa., who has a
fine record in base ball circules. A
ticket was sent him Saturday and he
should arrive tonight.
Go out today, everybody. See two
games and cheer up the locals and help
them win out, They need encourage
ment. The proverbial "knocker" of
which Wilmington is more freely sup
plied than other league towns will lh:
there, but let everybody drown his
"kick" with words of encouragement
for the men.

Deafness Cannot he Cnred
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness
and that Is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an Inflamed con
dition of he muscous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or Imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed Deafness is the re
sult, and unless the inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
Its normal condition, hearing: will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an Inflamed condition of
the muscuous en rf aces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars

catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's
