4 PRETTY GAME OF BALL-4iN-
OTHER TUESDAY

One of the prel,tiest games of ball
ever PLAYED on the Raleigh diamond
was fought out yesterday between
Franklinton and Raleigh.
Franlxlinton brought down an aggre-
cation of ball players from five towns,
most of them experienced men, yet
the Raleigh youngsters came within
hit of beating them out.
Person pitched superb ball for
Franklinton, and was we'll supported
everywhere except at shortStop. Win
ston is usually an 'all right, all right
player, but he had his off day yester-
day. Long and Card also had one yell
low mark against them. Watkins was
touched up a little more freely than
Person, but he pitched strong heady
ball throughout the whole game. The
Franklinton hits were punched, how
ever, and came at the same time with
Raleig'h's few errors, and that tells the
tale. Whitaker, an old Raleigh favor
lite, cracked a corl<ing three-bagger,
and distinguished himself by pretty
base running and fielding. Baunann
pulled down a pretty fly from Honey
cults stick Jack Johnson at second,
and young GIVE ts1ley at catch, played
pretty ball for FrankIinton. Both
teams played gentlemanly ball, and
there was no kicking against the per-
feet umpiring of Perrin Busbee.
lf--but that is another tale. The
score stood 8 to 10, against Raleigh.
The teams were as follows:
FranLlinton--Pers p; Gwaltney,
c.: Honeycutt, H.; johnson, 3D.; VIM
sion. S.: Card. 3D.: Long. If: Black

to break over this city yesterday, but
small hands welcomed the first glim-
mer of Light by setting fire to fuses
which soon pealing forth awole every
inhabitant and told him that young
America was to- hold sway.
The special rates over the Seaboard
Air Line and Southern railways
brought about 800 visitors TO the CITY,
and great number, aus usual, came
from the surrounding country.
From early morning till late last
night youngsters fired their cannonS,
firecrackers, connon-crackers, torpe-
does adj cracker-jacks, and especially
AT night. from all over the city, sky
rockets, Roman candles and many new
contraptions shot forth their fire into
the skies.
In the afternoon a brilliant game of
ball was played between Franklinlton
and Raleigh, at Athletic Park, and at
Pullen Park the citizens, through the
energetic manager of the Raleigh
Street Car Company, Mr.. Charles john
son, amused the children by number
of balloon ascensions and otherFourth
of July excitement. EARLY in the even
ing crowds began again to pour out TO
Pullen Park to witness the pyro ech-
nical display which promised to be
very interesting.
Several extra ears were placed on
the line, and even then the crowd could
not be accommodated.
AIT the park a crowd of three thou
sand of Raleigh's people had gthered
by O'clock
Seated all over THE hill around the
pavilion and on the terraces, six thou
sand eyes watched the display and
the evening was hurried away amid
jolly laughter and patriotic cheering.
Men in one section strained their
threats, while from another quarter
the merry laughter of the young wo-
men, sent pleasant sounds ito the ears
of those who chose to listen. Several
new styles of umbrellas We're sent into
the heavens, and THE evening was con-
sidered one of the pleasantest of years.
On the reutrn one car ran off the
track near West Raleigh, and broke an
axle, necessltating a great number to
have carriages in which TO return to
the city.

under it's founder until 1890 when Mr..
James Dinwiddie purchased the inter-
ests of Rev. DR. Burwell, and became
its principal. 1t has always been a
famous school. 1t has never lost a
pupil by death in the fifty-nine years
of its existence 1t is situated in the
best section of North Carolina, and has
the finest winter climate on the CONT

Mr.. Dinwiddie is a Master of Arts of
the University of Virginia, and has
adapted as far as possible the methods
of the University of Virginia to the
most advanced courses of female edu-
cation. The result has been contin-
ued success, and it is probable that
there is not another school in the
South doing such work for young la
dies. It's standard is high in all de-
partments. For example, in music,
i'm order to secure a diploma as grad
uate, the pupil is required to pass the
examination as prescribed by the Am
erican College of Musicians.
The Institute employs % officers
and teachers, all of whom the special
lv fitted for their several departments.
The faculty is an exceptionally strong
one this year, and the Institute has
Just completed one of the most sue
cessful years in its history.
Mr.. Dinwiddie took the degree OF
Master of Arts of the University OF
Virginia in June, 1861, and immediate

mandant of the ordinance depot at
