said OF Manchester congregations, much to
their praise albeit, that in matter Of deyo-

THE r!IH:NlX MEETING.
YORKTOWN CEN rENNIAL.
what Delaware Boys m blue are
Interested In at Present,

Arrangements have been perfected to
secure the necessary means and to ar
range plans for the Centennial celebra-
tion. Temple Farm, which belongs to
the association, has been accepted for
the use of the military. The grounds 70
be used for that purpose will be aid out
by Major w. T. Craighill, of the army.
The o'her portions of the grounds has
been reserved by the association and
will be leased for restaurants, lodging
rooms and other pnrpos IS The wharN O.
es will be loca ed as stated in these des-
patches, at Yorktown, instead of at
Temple Farm, as at first contemplated,
and visitors will go 10 the farm, less
than twtHDiles distance, in conveyances.
1t is prop0sed that the celebration shall
last from October 6 to October -, thus
giving opportunities to excursion par
ties to visit the grounds without incur
ing the discomforts incidental TO short
celebrations. This plan, the managers
think will work admirably. The ac-
como dations at Yorktown are wholly
inadequate TO the entertain ment of
crowds over night. Should very large
crowds attend on display days, as is
expected, ample Accommodations may be
had at Norfolk or Old Point, both with
in easy reach or even at Richmond,
which is but four hours sail away.
Yorktown can now be reached ooly by
boat, but the managers Of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio rold hope to have cars
running there before October. The ar
rangements for the celebration, except
for the Government days, will now be
left inlirely to the association.

The ChtcayO Wheat Deal.

A special dispatch from Chicago, H.,
says: The wheat deal is booming stead
lily along without much indication of
where it will bring up. 1t is now be
lievel that the bulls will have a hard
time making things even, NJ the chances
are greatly in favor of their suffering
big losses. There are all Sor s of rumors
ard speculations as to what is being
done and what is contemplated, but no
one can rely upon any of these reports,
Yesterday $4,000 bushels Of wheat came
in from Milwaukee, and was inspected
~ verv fine No. .. 1t was delivered to-.
day. 1t is understood that 100000
bushels more of wheat are to be sent
down from Milwaukee for delivery
There were some quioL talk to day of
reported long shipments to New York.
there was II rumor to the effect that
900, 900 bushels were to be sent on there
in lots, though the object of such a pro-
ceeding no one seemed to know. 1t
might tend to help the September deal
by strenglhing the market a little, and
something might be saved on tho stor-
age. The wonder is that the clique
does not take that Milwaukee wheat
which insp cts rs good as Chicago and
is 8 TO E cents cheaper. The impression
seems to be that the corner men are
getting into tight place themselves
from which they would be very glad to
get out.

Hum0rs Of Jhe Sick Room,

following hasty pen and ink sketches OF
the Doctors In attendance upon the
President, together with some humors
of the sick room:
AS soon as the patient il attended to-,
the physicians, with the exception OF
the one who Is left in the sick room, 90
away. Surgeon General Barnes is the
first usually to leave. DIR. Woodward
leaves soon afterwards. Neither of
these will say a wor! to newspaper cor
respondents, though DR.. Bliss talks al
most as usual. He is very accommoda-
ting in this respect, and notwithstand-
ing the numerous times he is applied to
he always tells something of interest il
connection with the case, being always
in the best of humor D.. Reyburn
says but little, and when he does say
anything obtains promise that his
name will not be used. DR.. Bliss finds
fun in the criticisms that are made in
some OF the newspapers over his course
in connection with this case, being par
ticularly tickled over the suggestion in
the New York World that the question
of the Presidents physicians should be
settled by popular suffrage. He has a
high idea of newspaper surgeons, as he
calls those newspaper editors who dis
cuss the case, and says if III could be ar
ranged so that they could get the infor-
nation they claim to have they would
no doubt make many valuable sugges-
tons. Of those IN attendance on the
President, DIR. Bliss is the onl Y one who
smokes. DR.. Reyburn is the most con.
servative, DR.. Barnes the finest look NJ |
and most calculating, DR.. Woodward
the most scientific looking, while DR..
