Events Of the Day.

THE CITADEL, CHARLESTON, April IL.
The baseball season has commenced
and has been hailed with delight by the
great number of cranks in the city. A
league has been organized consisting of
four teams: The Citadel, the College of
Charleston, the Washington Light Infan-
try, and the Charleston Light Dragons.
Each team is we'll practiced, and no
doubt we will have number Of excellent
games.
The season opened up last Wednesday
with game between the College and w.
L. l. The game was hotly contested at
all times, and at times it was impossible
to decide which team would win. Finally
the W. L. l. scored run and won the
victory, the score being to- O..
On Saturday the Citadel defeated the
College by score Of 8 to8. The College
has never been able to defeat the Cadets
heretofore, and the latter determined to
be victorious again this season. At first
the prospects for victory were anything
but bright. In the first inning the College
started with flourish, pinched off three
runs, got three more in the second. Be-
ginning with the third Mc1lwinen pitched
q beautiful game and the College sue
ceeded in scoring only twice more. The
Cadets made only goose eggs until the
fifth round when they scored three men.
At the beginning of the ninth round the
score stood 8 to 3, bets 10 to in favor of
the College. Then came the turn. With
yells ringing, colors flying and the Cadets
crying out their "charging term" Nc
Ilwinen, Ehrlich and Willard each made
a drive for two-bagger and soon six
runs were hammered off the reel, chang
ing the phase of the game completely.
There was an extra large crowd at the
park and the rooters were on the wire
edge.
Gen. Robert R. Hemphill addressed the
Calliopean Society Saturday night on the
subject of military as an Art" His ad-
dress was spendid, and was enjoyed by
the Cadets and large number of friends.

dent, Cadet Copeland; Vice-President;

WOROrd College Notes.

WoFFoRD COLLEGE, SPARTANBURG,
April 13.-The past week has been full of
events at Wofford. Two games of base
ball and two lectures have made the week
quite memorable one.
On last Monday afternoon Wofford
was defeated by Davidson, the score be-
ing 3to 2. 1t was game full of intense
excitement, it not being at all clear till
the very last, who was the victor. Both
teams were in excellent shape. Yount
pitched the game for Davidson and it was
his excellent work in the box which won
the game for his team. Durant for Wof-
ford was in the game from first to last !;
the whole team and all the college feel
that they have no kick coming against
this developing young twister. While it
is the score which counts and will be re-
membered, still we feel land it was ad-
mitted by Davidson player) that we out
played our opponents at nearly every
point of the game.
Saturday saw another victory snatched
from the old gold and black. This was
the prettiest game witnessed on the
college diamond in many year. From
the first inning till the eighth neither
side crossed the home plate, though each
side had several chances for doing so.
The eighth was the fatal inning. Wofford
came in for her eighth three men got on
bases while there were two outs, Isom,
our heaviest slugger Of last season, came
to the bat, but what fall there was my
countrymen" when Isom sent pop fly
to first baseman Holt and died there such
an easy death. Then North Carolina
came for her eighth. First man up Carr,
got his base on balls, Donnelly came up
for home run, pushing Carr ahead OF
him, thus winning the game for Carolina.
The next two men died, neither side
scored in the ninth and all was over.
Holt, who played with Augusta last sum-
mer and made such asplendid reputation,
said that he considered Wofford's team
the fastest fielding aggregation that North
Carolina had struck this season, this
after having played against Brown
University, Cornell and South Carolina
college. Our next game is with Erskine,
who comes over for her chastisement
next Friday.
Mr.. Ford, of New York, lectured on
last Wednesday evening in the College
Auditorium. This lecture was in the
interest of the Y. NJ. G. A. Only small
crowd attended, but a very enjoyable
evening was spent.
DR.. G. T. Winchester, of Wesleyan
University, Conn, delivered the last lee
ture of the season on Saturday night last.
A splendid audience was present and
listened in rapt attention for one hour
and twenty-five minutes, that is to say
from the beginning to the end. DR.. Win,
chester's subject was "An old castle"
The lecture was fine portrayal OF the
customs in England during Queen Eliza
beths reign.
DR.. J. S. Lander, missionary to Brazil,
and Rev. J. E. McCulloch were on the
campus for few days last week.
Mr.. R. G. Oliver was elected captain OF

Distribution OF SEED
Talk Abolishins a Good but Much
Abused Custom.

The Department of Agriculture Is
making preparation for the usual free
seed distribution farce which Congress
annually puts upon the shoulders of the
Secretary. A resolution has been intro
duced in Congress to abolished this fake
and restore the free distribution OF seeds
to its original basis, from which it has
degenerated into the present wholesale
scattering Of hundreds OF thousands OF
little packets of common vegetable and
flower seeds, under the franks Of the
various Congressman and Senators. The
idea embodied in the original distribu.
ton OF seeds was that unknown or un-
tried varieties and species might be tried
in different sections OF the country
where ii was believed they would In
crease the value Of farm crops. This is
still an entirely legitimate undertaking
OF the government. The Department
has a number Of agriculture explorers
constantly travelling over different parts
Of the world. studying the different crops
and buying seed and plants for trial in
this country. Most of our agriculture
has been developed from crops grown in
other countries and new things are
being discovered which enrich our apri.
culture millions OF dollars annually. Al
liberal Congressional appropriation for
this purpose, the expenditure to be left
in the hands of the Secretary. would be
legislation really in the interest of the
farmer, but the present system is simply
the result of legislation which looks to
the supposed benefit of each Congress.
