In order to answer the numer-

concerning the condition of our
daughter Mabel since the late ter
rible accident, We beg to say that
her attending physician DR.. Hines,
gives full assurance tnat her prog
ress to recovery is as satisfactory as
could be desired, and that he ap-
prehends no permanent defect or
injury. She sustained a compound
fracture Of her right leg above the
ankle and likewise her right collar
bone. She bears her sufferings
with the fcrtituae Of little mar
tyr. We are profoundly thankful
that she and the other little suffer
ers are doing SO we'll.
With heartfelt gratitude to DIR

The Great Game This Week.

The Raleigh baseball enthusiasts
may look forward to an excellent
game between the Universities of
Vermont and our own State. The
U. V. M. boys come South with one
of the strongest teams they have
ever had-last year they won from
all the northern colleges, losing but
one out of eleven games. They have
just beaten Princeton by score Of
4 to 2. From the above it looks as
if they will have "walk over" with
our boys, but not so, for cur Uni
versity this year has the stron sest
team it has ever la1. The points
where the University has hitherto
been weak are now their main
strength. They bat very we'll, as
was seen in the game against Dur
ham about two weeks ago, when they
made twenty hits, with a total Of
twenty-se seven bases, off of Charlie
Jones, the great Winston pro-
fessional pitcher, Their base run
ming is excellent, for nearly every
afternoon, besides long run after
the game, hundred yard dash has
usually been indulged in.
The men of our University are in
excellent condition, and "Babe" La.
nier will occupy the pitchers boz
in the game in Raleigh on the 18th
inst. Stephens, of Oak Ridge fame
will pitch in the second game, which
will be played on the "Hill."
The Vermont men will meet some
thing no doubt entirely new wher
they endeavor to steal second OF
Oldham, who is the best thrower, i
not also the best catcher, in ths
Southern Inter Collegiate League
The out field OF the University team
is exceedingly strong, and all ball
will have to be put ''on the ground
to be safe, and then it must be pu
very far away from such men a
Gray, Stanley and Drain in the in
field. Altogether the prospects TO
good game are fine. The Vernon
men come loaded down with laurel
won, and our own boys have til
best team they have ever had, ar
hope to show their new colleg
friends from New England that the
too can play ball. It will be clos
game with good deal of batting
even though Vermont may take th
game. Raleigh wants to zee or
real good game between colleg
men, which does not wind up in
row

Hon. ; B. Alexander Talks of Matters
at Washington.

SuariOUte N ewS.
When Congressman S. 3. Alexan-
der got off the vestibuls train this
morning, he alighted right in the
arms of News reporter. From
what Captain Alexander says, the
Charlotte office-seekers are to be
kept in suspense for some time yet.
There is no indication that Post
master Brady is to be disturbed in
the immediate future. In conver-
saticn with Senator Vance yester-
day, Capt. Alexander learned that
the Senator has arranged to leave
Washington next Monday. He is
going to his mountain home, Com
broom, near Asheville, TO get brief
| rest. Senator Vance said, in refer
ence to the Charlotte postoffice and
mint appointments, that he never
crosses bridge until he comes to
it, He said that he had not yet
made up his mind in regard to who
should be recommended for these
two places. "I don't know what
might turn up" said Senator Vance
"and will, therefore, not make W
my mind until tie times comes t;
act"
"How about Hope Elias ant
| GLENN" asked the News reporter
"Well," said Capt Alexander, "Mr
| Cleveland is favoring Elias; there i
no doubt about that. I saw tn
President yesterday, and told him
was going home, and would like t
know if he intended to act in th
matter before the Senate adjournE
Mr.. Cleveland said that he had nc
yet examined the papers. He wante
} to make the appointment before tn
Senate adjourns, but was afrsi(
upon account of heavy pressur
of business, that he would not b
able to do so.' This being the sity
alton, it is very probable that th
Elias Glenn agony is to endure fc
a time yet.
