A CORRESPONDENT elsewhere com.
7nends the Mayor for the stand he has
taken against the opening of cigar
stores on the Saba tn day, and regrets
afsat the prohibition is not extended to
drug and periodical stores, where CT.
gars and tobacco are also sold. We
agree with him and look upon the privi'
lego given to dispense medical drugs
apon the prescript ion of a physician be-
ing nsed to cover the sale of cigars as a
violation OF the law that should be
promptly met and stopped at once. As
well may ice cream and liquor saloons
be opened on Sunday under q plea of
necessity as cigar stores. If tits wrong
for cigar dealer to sell cigars on Sun.
day it is equally wrong for druggists
and newspaper vendors to sell them.
The Mayor should be commended for
the steps he has taken, and we hope he
will make the prohibition thorough, and
chen no person will have cause to COM
plain.

EgYpt's Imminent Peril.

AONDONJ Ouly H.
The Press Association reports that
there is a reason to believe that the de-
cisive military action will be taken in
Egypt, probably within twenty four
hours. The Cabinet met in Sir Will
liam Harcourt's room in the House of
Commons this afternoon and consulted
with the Duke of Cambridge. Comman.
der in Chief of the Army. 1t is rumored
in the lobby of the House that Alexan-
dria will be Immediately bombarded.
A Parish dispatch says matters are
at standstill pending the result of
the Porte's efforts to induce Arab Bey
Pasha to come to Constantinople.
The Times thinks it Is only reason
able to assume that on the necessity
of an Egyptian expedition becoming
obvious the government would avoid
half measures and INN ediately call
out the army and militia reserve,
which would add fifty thousand train
ed men to the fighting strength of the
country.
The Times i'll an editorial confirms
the statement published Saturday that
the Porte had signitied its intention to

respecting Egypt and that Turkish
troops would be sent to re establish the
status quo under the direction of the
powers. The article says it is clear,
however, that there is some disagree
ment in regard to the conditions of
Turkish intervention, as the offer thereof
was made week ago.
PARIS, July 4.-Count De L6sseps, re.
plying yesterday to a deputation of the
International Peace Association, depre.
Gated any attempt of England to disem-
bark troops in Egypt or to make ma.
val demonstration at the mouth of the
Suez Canal. He said he was assured
that there was no danger to the canal
unless the people were excited by for
eign Intervention.
The government has proposed to the
powers to fix August 16 for the meeting
of the conference on the protection of
the submarine cable.

Our Water Supply,

Chief Engineer of the Water Works
McIntire raises his note of alarm to the
people of Wilmington and tells them
they need not be surprised to find
themselves without water some of these
days. 1t appears that with all the
facilities at hand and with all
the pumps in use the supply OF water
never gets much ahead of the demand
The capacity of the reservoir when full
is 100000 gallons. The consumption
is 100000 gallons daily which is
more than ever known before. At
this rate there could not be more than
six days supply of water ahead. If
anything should happen to the engines
or boilers-the latter having been in
use ten years-that would require a
weeks repairs, the city would be out
of water. 1t is high time the City
Council should take immediate steps
to prepare for the threatened emergen-
cy of no water. 1t now looks as If our
additional water supply had to be
taken from some other source than the
Brandywine.
Even ifthe city water works were
moved above Rockland dam, at the
present ratio of increase in water con-
sumption, in few years there would
not be enough water in the creek to sup
ply the city. Under these circumstar
ces the present water works had better
be left where they are and an addition
al supply be looked for from the waters
of Mill and Red Clay Greeks. 1t will
all be needed by the time the city reach
es hundred thousand population and
that will be in less than twenty-five
years if the present ratio of increase in
population is kept up. This water
question is one that cannot be easily
ignored and the best way to meet the
emergency is for Council to take the
matter in hand In time.

by the Association.
PITTsBURG, Pa, July S.-The finish
ers met to-day and adopted resolutions
Indignantly denying the statement
that they intended to separate from the
Amalgamated Association of Iron and
Steel Workers and declaring the asso.
ciation's demands just. This shows
that there is no division of opinion
among the strikers.
A prominent manufacturer being
asked what the outlook was for the
strikers, read letter received from a
Chicago house to-day, in which they
say they are ceiling eastern iron in that
city at 50 81, notwithstanding that
Pittsburg has had a strike for month.
This shows, said the manufacturer,
that eastern Arms are not affected by
our difficulty, and 1t effectually dis
poses of the idea that we shallsever con.
cede the demands of our workmen.
CUMBERLAND, Md, July Sit is
said Hooking Brothers and Williams
& Cochrane, the former operating two
and the latter one mine in Myersdale
region, have conceded the advance ask
ed by strikers. The knights of Labor
had an assembly meeting at Frostburg
to day, and will continue in session for
several days. There is no apparent
change in the situation here.
In New York and Jersey City the
strike of the freight handlers and long
shoremen continues, without any ma
terial change. The italian laborers at
Jersey City became incensed on Satur-
day when paid off by the Erie Railway
Company at Jersey City because the
company deducted fifty cents per day
for food furnished. Cotton.hooks and
knives were drawn and the men were
with much difficulty driven of the
dock by the police

of ship ow ners and others, it was re.

LOW PRICES can &C.
complish this result. Now
we never wait to let others

that is the reason our large
sales have continued during
the backward spring. We
very quietly let our custo-
mers know this fact when
they first looked at our
spring styles, and they told
their friends to come and
they found it to be a fact,
and they likewise told their
neighbors where to find the
best goods for the lowest
prices, and we learning that
we were the acknowledged
leaders asserted it through
the columns of the REPUB-
LICAN. Now we mean to
maintain our position, and
some new goods just in

have decided to limit the number of
tickets for their excursion to Atlantic
City on Thursday newt, in order to take
all on the FELTON, at one trip. All per-

have to be left at home. Tickets can
be obtained from the committee or of
the janitor of the Hall every evening.
