Claiming Wilmington.

A despatch from North Vernon, Ind,
to Saturdays New York Times says
that A. Connor, a restaurant keeper, W.
:. Rodger, a hotel man, and Hudson
Breeze, OF that place, have bsen given
notice to attend the final meeting Of the
heirs of the Christopher Springer estate
at St. Louis, on Jan. II. This estate is
said 10 he worth $50, ,O0C, 900, and en-
brace 800 acres of land, on which the
City Of WILMINGTON, Del, stands, for
which lease for long term, now ex-
pired. was given by the ancestors Of
Christopher Springer, who also owned
a large estate in Stockholm, Sweden.
1t is said there are now 700 heirs scat
tered throughout Indiana, Ohio, Hi.
nois, Kansas, Colorado, Pennsylvania,
and possibly other States. Among the
defendants Of Christopher are Reuben
R. Springer of this city, who transferred
all his rights to his brother, the
Rsv J. W. Springer, of St. Louis; the
Hon. William NJ. Springer, Of Washing
ton, D. c.; w. c. Springer, Of Lincoln,
Kan, and Congressman Springer, Of
Illinois. When the lease Of the es ate
in Wilmington had expired, the Mayor
Of that city advertised for heirs, and a
meeting ofthe Springer family was held
at the residence Of the Rev. J. w,
Springer, in St. Louis, to make arrange.
ments to assert their claim to the estate
in Wilmington and Stockholm.
NoTE.-Fhe Mayor OF Wilmington
never advertised for heirs as above as
serted, and there is no authority fol
the existance of any such lease.

Alice Oates.


The viyaciOns and talented Mrs. Oates
after successful Southern tour with a
strong company of capable artists, will
appear at the Opera House, in this city,
Thursday evening next, as the Little
Duke in LIE Cocq's beautiful opera with
that title. 1t is unnecessary to expa-
tiate on the artistic merritt of the sing
ing and acting of Alice Oates as of a new
light in the theatrical armament, for
most theatre goers have had opportuni-
ties TO judge for themselves as to the
little lady's unquestionable powers in
opera bouffe, but it is not perhaps a
miss to say that she has lost none of
her phenomenal and electric spirit, and
as we are told she is growing handsome
as she approaches the meridian Of life
as it were. She is an enthusiastic stu
dent in her chosen art, having recently
her already extended re-
portoire with q number Of nav operas,
visiting Paris to rsceivs instructions
from the composer and attain the true
French method, which she has succeed
cd beyond any other American singer
in adapting to our stage. 1t is safe to
predict no disappointment for the COM
ing holiday theatrical entertainment.
The opera selection for this occasion is
one in which she appears to great ad-
vantage and the popular prices will
insure full house. Eh

4 Fearful Risk for tiirls.

iae pastor Of u church in one O. our
large cities said TO me moi long ago IL
have oflciatcd Mt forty weddings since
came here, and in every case, save one,
have felt that the bride was running an
awful risk. Young men of bad habits
aud fast tendencies never marry girls OF
their own sort, but demand wife above
suspicion. So, pure, sweet, women, kept
of their girlhood. give themselves, with
all their costly dover of fwomanhood, into
the keeping Of men who, in base associ-
ations, have learned to undervalue all
that belongs 10 them and then find no
repentance in the after years. There ia
but one way out Of this that / can see,
and that is for y0u--the young women OF
the cOuntry-to REQUIRE in association and
marriage purity for purity. sobriety for
snbrcty, and honor for honor. There is
no reas1n why the young men of this
Christian land should not be as virtuous
rs its women, and if the loss of society
and love be the price they are to pay for
vice, they will no, pay it. admit with
sadness that not all our young women are
capable OF this high standard for them
selves or others. but believe there are
earnest, thoughtful girls in the society of
our country to work wonders if faithfully
aroused. Dear girls, will you help us in
the name Of Christ? Will you, first of all.
ne true 10 yourselves and God, so pure in
your inner and outer 'ie that you shall
have q right to ask tina. the young man
with whom you marry nhall be the same?
The awful gulf of dishonor is close beAide
your feet, and in it fathers, brothers, low
ers, and sons ere going down. Will you
help us in our great work 2

For the first six months of that pre-

you think to buy that hromn today for

"My DEAR" said I, "wll you do me
the injustice to believe Stat could over

or that inestimable child?"
She apoiogized very handsomely, but
made her anxiety the scapegoat. l for

her addressed myself to sleep.
