Harkness' -Ac0de,,av.

The building now in the course oferectior
on the northwest corner of Tenth and Mar
ket streets, is designed by the proprietor
Prof. John G. Harkness, for the use of a
private school, under the supervision of the
professor and competent assistants.
The building is certainly fine large one,
and most admirably suited for the purpose
to which it will be applied. The location is
one of the finest In our city for an educa-
tional institution, and this fact alone, will
not be lost sight of by our citizens.
The school, which will open in Septem-
Der, will be conducted on such principles,
that cannot but meet the hearty approval
OF parents who wish to offer their children
the means of acquiring an education fitted
for the practical duties of life. This assertion
needs no other evidence of its faithfulness,
then brief review of the past history of
John G. Harkness, as an educator in this
city. His success has indeed been such as
to command the respect and admiration Of
every impartial father and mother in VII
mington. With the increased facilities
which his new building cannot fail to supply
and the bountiful experience of the past, It
Is not too much to say that Hardness 'Acad-
emy will be the embodiment of q first class
school, and one worthy in every respect the
most liberal consideration of the citizens of
Delaware.

were from New York. It was 90 well nll6d
that the accessions ct tho different way Sta

sought by ladies, but the fumes of an A.
sorfment Of tobacco smoke, from the two
for 6ve up to the ten cent Havana, and an
occasiensl Whit Of the short clay pipe,
thrown In to lend strength to the seasoning,
was too much for them, and they sought
other quarters, with the tart remark, Those
villatn0us segars."
At Chester two dainty little figures, pi-
quaint and chatty, hustled in among the
smokers before anyone was aware of their
presence. "The Smoking Car ladies'" said
the conductor - he made his appear
snce uttering the well kuown shout, ''tick-
etsl" A pretty little face fringed with .
scattering Of nut brown hair that peeped
as though half afraid from beneath . large
sun hat, few freckles that contained
beauty inthe strong contrast that they yformed
to the alabaster white skin, and two mild
blue eyes, looked pleasantly; just little

and she said ''get rs other seats" ut IL
impossible, the cars are al FULL" and after
rendering this much satisfaction he walked
of, while the mellow voice shouted after
him. "We can stand smoke, my big brother
has meerscharm - big as you are.
During this conversation, which was .
great relief to the tedium of railway travel,
the passengers were In litter of laughter.
The young ladies took seats and seemed de-
termined to prove themselves invulnerable
TO any annoyances from tobacco smoke.
The passengers pufged and puffed, the smoke
was .dense, the brakeman relieved the
sitting atmosphere by hosting several
windows. The situation grew interesting
to the smokers, and they appeared resolute
that this intrusion upon the sacredness of
the smokers rights should have full test
of its endurance. Hardly two miles had
been traversed before there was heard
subdued "a-chew" issuing from the in
truders. This was followed soon after by
another, and knowing winks were ex-
changed by the human steam engines. Down
brakes we're whistled, and when the train
halted the test proved to have been too
much, and the fair ones bolted without cere-
mony into the next car, amid shout of
laughter from the victors.
