AS already announced in the JOURNAL
iSg new militia company was organized
at wyoming, Kent county, about the first
Of the year 1t had about 40 members
When organized, and elected the following
line officers
Captain Charles NJ. Carey
First Lieutenant-HeprY Wheatley.
Second Lieutenant-J0hn II. Wslheater.
This il the first company organized in
The State, and is designated as Company
Z. The officers have been commissioned

drilling the men.
The First Regiment now consists of
I'VE companies, located as follows A, at
Wilmington; B, at Milford; q, at Will
mlngton; D, at Dover; E, at Wyoming.
There was rumor in military circles in
town to the effect that the Grand Army
men were contemplating forming mill
tary company. This has no foundation,
and probably arose from the movement on
loot in DUPONT Post to organize firing
squad to fire salutes over the graves of the
dead. This last will doubtless be accom-

Having had numberless inquiries for advertising
cards from ladies in all parts of the country who
are interested in the prevailing fashion of making
.Card Collections" we are having printed for
them set Of seven beautiful cards, each in six
cnors aud Oh gold background in the very
highest degree OF art, illustrating Shakspearc's
''Seved Ages of Man." We have spared no expense
In these cards-they are simply little art-gens.
Our only aim has been to publish the finest cards
yet shown. Applications tor them have come in
so rapidly that nearly the whole edition is engaged
before the receipt by us of the cards from the
artist We have therefore been Obliged to adopt
the following plan for the distribution of the re-
mainder: No more of the gilt Shakespeare cards,
seven IN the series, Will be sent excepting upon
the receipt of a statement from grocer tn I the
person applying for the cards has bought OF him
ON that day at least seven bars of Dobbins Elec-
uric Soap with price paid for same. All app ying
in this manner will receive the full set Of seven
cards gratis by mail. This will insure that our
friends and patrons get their share of these heant
full designs, although It in no mauper repays for
the cost Of the cards. Your grocer has the soap
or will get II, and the purchase by you of seven
bars of II at one time win secure foryou gratis seven
really beautiful cards: The soap improves with
age and is an arcicle of necessity In your house
every week. Therefore you arc not asked to buy
a useless article, but one that you must have any
way. Please send us your applications at once, aud
tell your lady friends making "Dard Collections
to do the same. Yours, respectfully,

The Great
Bargain Room
at OAK HALL.

There never was any
where before, SO far as we
know, such a sale of clothing
as is now going on at OAK
HALL, taking up the whole
ground floor. A hundred
thousand dollars worth of
good clothing, nearly all of
It new and fashionable, all Of
it we'll made and of good
materials without exception
flor we make no other) is
being sold at prices which
bring loss instead of gain.
Clearing sales occur at the
close of every season; but
they commonly are sales OF
broken assortments and odd
garments, and of small guam
titles.
Here toward the end OF
our most successful season
we are clearing out what
ever, for any cause, has
shown signs of being slow.
Thousands of whole suits
and overcoats and odd gar
ments as well.
Now the sole reason for
selling this mass of valuable
clothing, without even an at
tempt at profit, is that stated
above, which may be put into
different words, thus: To get
our stock into the most at
tractive condition, without
regard to immediate profit.
And so, while this sale is
going on, the choicest, most
approved, most successful,
clothing we have is up stairs.
The prices there are not re-
duced at all. This sale will
hurt that while it lasts, be-
cause the clothing in the
bargain room is extremely
good. For this reason we
want it short; and to make
it short, the prices are low.
Bring lack promptly aohat
you don't aOant at tie price.
You can order by letter,
pr buy here, according to
your own convenience. On
receipt of a letter from you,
will send the means Of tax
ing your own measure. Then
you can tell us what you
want near enough SO that
we can take the risk of suit
ing you.

Che Rugby Colony.

Chattanooga Times.
The country this association proposes to
redeem and regenerate is vastly richer in
soil and in all natural advantages than the
best portion of New England. Who
rescued those barren hills in the northeast.
where there are thine months of cold
weather. from savage man and adverse
nature, in despite of the forbidden climate
Who made that wilderness of two hundred
years ago to bloom and blossom; planted
it thick with towns and cities; set the
hum of machinery where mingled the
brAwl OF the tumbring torrent with the
war-whoop of savage men and the cries of
fierce wild bessts2 Euglishmen. Let not
the souls of petty scribblers be troubled
lest an English colony fail. These same
scribbers owe the civilization, educational
advantages, pretty much all they have or
enjoy, to the pluck, endurance, foresight
and enterprise of the cavaliers of Virginia
and the Rouudheads of the Massachusetts
Bay colony.
But the colony is not dis.inctiyely
English; by no means. Americans are
largely interested in and employed about
it. The initial million will be but mite
compared to what the final results must
bring in real cash, energy and the infusion
of love of real agriculture among rural
population sadly in need of that kind Of
K adership.

Result of High Tariff.

New YORK Herald.
The man who does not see that our high
tariff is at the bottom of the decline of our
shipping does not see to the bottom.
In this field we compete idirectly with
other nations and, of course, we are beaten
because our tariff prevents us from build
ing or sailing ships so oheaply as our
rivals. The foreign commerce of this
country WAS SOL, 604 $50 in 1856 and
/, 613, 10, SOB in 1880 The amount
of it carried in American vessels
was 1882 1852 in 1856 and
$3.50, 005, 497 in 1880. We have
not only lost relatively, but absolutely. Iu
1916 American vessels carried 75.2 per
cent. of our commerce, and in 1880 only
ia per cent. American vessels carried
nearly twice a. much in 1856 as ia 1880,
aud the decrease steadily continues.
