8 TO z.

Was the Score and Goldsboro
WOn-Finely Contested Game.
Newbern Journal, June Is.
The lovers of base ball in this
city were given a really first
class article yesterday at the fair
grounds, the contestants being
the Goldsboro and Newbern
clubs.
The weather was fine, being
cloudy, the light showers in no
way affecting the playing, or
interfering with the enthusiasm
Of the spectators.
From the very first it was evil
dent that the game would be hot
ly fought throughout, and it
was, every misplay being taken
advantage Of by the other side.
To the spectators there was
excitement in every inning Some
misplay being quickly followed
by sharp aud accurate fielding, so
that promised runs failed to ma
terialize.
The battery work of Scott and
BASE, for Goldsboro, was fine
and really won the game.
For Newborn, Moore, Tisdale
and Jacocks made sensational
catches. The first play Of Steven.
son was excellent,
The battery work of Daniels
and Bryan was good, both play.

The Water Tankers, With Bass
AS Leader, Smother the

Daily Argus. June 10.
By DOYLE PRIyETT.
1t was all Bass fault. The
White "Sox" did their best to
sweat the cover off the ball, but
Bass was not but 1.-TWO minutes
off of Them"
Both teams went at it from the
jump, as though they were going
to annihilate one another, and
never for an instant did they let
up their aggressive tactics.
The pitching of Bass bordered
close on the sensational. He sent
Mast twisters, slow benders, in
terspersed with straight high ones
and straight low ones, but they
were all enlgmas for the visitors.
Bass saw that it was up to him to
do the work and he did it we'll.
Max COIN is the surest hitter
on the team. Well didn't he drive
'em! At one point of the game
there were three men on bases and
two outs, when Max was called to
the bat. Now we knew that he
could bring them in with little
trouble, but he was given his base
on balls, which forced o man
home. The bases were full yet,
and Abe COIN was next to bat.
Abe is a good batsman and saved
the runs.

stance, and it's acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening

catcher, on the Goldsboro team,
and of young Holt, on 1st base on

THE DEMOCRATIC LEADER.

The Democratic nomination of James
ID, Richardson for Speaker of the House
of Representatives did not, of course
lead to his election. That was not ex
pected 1t gave him an important posi-
tion in the House. though. 1t made him
the leader of the minority. and in that
capacity he could do more for the re
Mobilization of the Democratic party
than all of the reorganization schemes
that have been proposed. He Is a
thorough parlementarian, and has had
long experience in Congress. He knows
the methods and motives of the ma
iority. He has been the Democratic
floor leader through two or three Con-
crosses, and will be able 10 expose to
the country the excuses of those who
are running those with a high hand.
The thing for the Democratic party TO
do is not TO quarrel over the issues that
were most conspicuous in 1896 and 1900,
but to stuck close TO cardinal doctrines
and take advantage of the mistakes and
internal animosities OF the enemy.
There will be plenty of them.

Worn Out-Has to he Supported
to His Carriage.

Columbus, o.. May 27.-The special
train on which Gov. George X. Nash
and party Travelled to San Francisco to
attend the launching of the battleship
Ohio arrived here Saturday morning
at 1850 o'clock over the Hooking Val
ley railroad. The party had been re-
duced to considerable extent since
it left here, but all were in good spir-
its. Gov. Nash looked old and broken,
and was so weak that he had to be
supported as he walked to his carriage.
He is SO lame that he can hardly stand
alone. The governor himself said he
would soon be all right, but his intimate
friends express doubts of speedy re-
covery.
Members of the party say the reports
of friction with the presidential party
at Los Angeles were exaggerated. Gov.
Nash explained the matter by saying
the Los Angeles people were over
whelmed by the unexpected arrival of
the two Ohio parties. Julius Whiting,
of Canton, close personal friend of
President Mckinley, said the Southern
Pacific officials had cleared the read
of all trains for the presidents train,
and held up the Ohio party for Is hours,
which causeda vigorous complaint, but
that it was not directed at the presi-

And white the ground and chill;
For since the angel sounded taps,
The camp is wondrous still.
AIS quiet" here; the guns are stacked,
The guidons all are furled;
The lights are'out, and while you sleep
Peace rules your silent world.
So quiet! from no sentinel,
Inc challenge sharp hear:
NO clarion horn nor rafting drum
Proclaims the foe is near.
But yonder in perspective rise I
Majestic shaft and dome
Inc more than queenly city, whence
The laws of freemen come.
To her your priceless sacrifice
Made sure for coming years,
The powers whose wide expanding sway
Thrills both the hemispheres
"All's quiet" here; but millions, yon,
Awake the jubilee!
A race, with grateful song, recall
The price that made them free.
"All's quiet" here; but through the eartl
Your deeds reverberate;
Inspiring peoples to arise
And nations to be great
Hark! dimly come in undertone, I,
The rhythmic waves of sound,
From the cities to the silences
That In your camp abound.
They are the pulse ard throb Of life,
Which, like mighty sea,
Moves on resistless in its sweep
TO larger liberty.
And in that boundless life your deeds
Shall live for evermore,
Till deeds of earth, like pillows, break
On Heavens eternal shore.
AIS quiet" comrades, and the SHOWS
That mantle you in white
Are whispering softly to your dreams,
Sleep peacefully tonight.
Softly we tread who marched with you,
SO many years ago;
And, marching still, were coming on
To join you meath the snow
For frosts have touched us. limb and brow
And SHOWS are on our head
mat ne'er will melt until for us,
me silent tents are spread.
