indeed it affords US pleasure to notice
church and society meetings free OF
charge, but when we are pressed to
repeat the notice sometimes more than
twice, and fault Is found with US If we
do not do SO, we feel like turning COM

served for general and local reading
matter and for advertisers, but If we
publish the same local matter two or
three times over our paper will become
uninteresting to our readers. We mean
exactly that If the same matter is pub

Mow the UamDuers were FOiled

How the gamblers were FOiIed
The Democratic microscope is at
work to hunt up the loose jcinted
kind Of Dem ocrats who voted for Sher-
if Martin at the late election and who
played sad havoc with Democratic po-
litical gamblers who had money bet on
the election of Lynch. These Demo.
cratic political gamblers knew what
had been done to purchase and corrupt
the colored voters. They knew how
many could be depended upon in St.
Georges Hundred, how many in New
Castle and how many in Wilmington.
They knew how many they could de.
pend upon through "Pete" Blakes de-
fectiOn and they knew how many de-
bauched degraded and bought Repub'
lican votes would be belched out from
other gambling hells and gin slums in
the city, but there was one thing these
same Democratic thimble riggers did
not know. They knew not how many
honest Democrats were voting for
James Martin. Knowing that they
had enough Republican votes bought
mp ready for delivery to elect Mr..
Lynch Sheriff, these high toned Demo-
cratic political gamblers at late hour
on the night before the election, sent
for Mr.. Richardson, called him out OF
bed and hurried hip before the gam
bling cabal, to get him to bet $500 on
the election of Mr.. Martin. Mr.. Rich
ards6n not to be "stumped" put up the
money with the expectation If he lost
it to pay it like man, and If he won it
he expected the other side to pay it
without squirming. The election was
over and though the purchased and de-
bauched Republican voters delivered
their goods as promised there was a
loose link in an unexpected quarter.
More Democrats had voted for Mr..
Martin, than had been counted On and
he came out nine votes ahead. Blank
astonishment dazed every political

THERE IS SAID to be honor amongst
thieves, but that much cannot be said
of Wilmirg gton political gamblers of the
Democratic stripe. Perhaps the pOliti-
cal gambler who lost his money betting
on the Sheriff's election is high-toned
moral concern, who considers 1t an act
of the grossest immortality to pay bet
lost. If this be so he should have an
other commandment added to his NOR
al decalogue something like this |:
"Thop shalt bet on elections, but if
thou losest the bet thou shalt not pay
it."

OWNERS of chickens should be on
the lookout for chicken thieves, and il
any of them come around, a load of
bird shot sprinkled about their legs
will be perfectly allowable. Ii a few
grains of shot should strive in a more

the satisfaction of knowing that your
chickens will be saved though you will

THE SOLID SOUTH game is to be
played over again in the next Presi-
Dental election, if Watterson's Louis
vile Courier journal is any indication
of the drift of Democratic sentiment.
That journal says there will he 401
electoral votes in 1884, and it will re-
Quire POI votes to elect. The South it
says will give chat majority, leaving
out Virginia, Indiana, New York and
New Jersey. If all the Northern
States, however, with the exception of
those mentioned should go Republican,
it will require the vote OF one or either
of the latter to elect.

PHILADELPHIA.
Tuesday,;
The material for a nice little
story happened here the
other day; about fine laces.
We mustn't tell the story;
because the lady concerned
would scarcely like to have
it told. There's no harm in
the tale; only it might get
out whom it's about. No
harm then even. may be.
Mustn't tell.
We may tell this: Ouch

ing of Aounces ar d handker
chiefs, at ST., $27 and $S8 a
yard and $40 and $27 for
handkerchiefs, lately come,
are, perhaps about as fine as
any in town.
There are two sorts of lace
buyers in this part of the
world Ladies who know
what they want, and want it
for the least money it can be
Igot for. We have no diff
Guilty with them at all. They
come and look and buy. The
other sori-They must have
everything of the finest; but
they judge everything BY its
price. Now, our prices are
made for the close buyers;
and they scare away a good
many Of the loose buyers.
We losea great deal Of trade
In the finest laces, simply be-
cause our prices are a fifth,
a quarter, or a third, below
those of the exclusive stores.
What can we do about it?
OF course these ladies never
read our part OF the papers;
and nobody ever blames any
body for not reading adver
tisementS.
We are thinking OF open
ing a school OF lace lin which
laoies' m a y learn what's
what. In fact we have a
school substantially. What's
to hinder any ladywho wants
to know laces, from coming
aQd looking through our
stock from one end to the
other? Where is there such
anot uer school?

Col. HENRY s. McCeMR, president of
the Southern Railroad Association, died
suddenly of apoplexy at the West End
hotel in Philadelphia, on last Friday, in
the fifty-third year of his age. Col. Nc
Comb was a man of more than ordinary
culture, and leaves as legacy to his
children, a large fortune and unblemished
reputation. He is best known as sue
cessful railroad manager, and the plain
tiff in the suit against the Credit Mobilier
company, which resulted so disastrously
to large number of speculative congress
men and others in 1873. This suit was
the occasion of the exposure. Col. Nc
Comb was at the time of his death the
owner of a controlling interest in the
Mississippi 81 Tennessee railroad and
president of the company. He disposed
of the Delaware & Western railroad
to the Baltimore g Ohio road only a
short time before his death. His resi-
dence is in Wilmington, Del, where he
leaves a wife, married son and three
daughters.

New York gislature.

ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. 3.-Neither
branch of the legislature was organized
by the Democrats to-day. It is thought
an amicable settlement will be arranged
this afternoon, and that when both
branches meet tomorrow they will be Or
ganized by the Democrats. In the senate
the anti-monopoly resolution gave rise to
considerable debate The lieutenant gov
ernor made feeling allusion to the death
of the late President Garfield.
The nearest approach to a compromise
among the Democrats this morning was
a rumor that the Tilden men had consent
ed to withdraw Jacobs for president pro
tenn of the senate, provided Tammany
would agree to accept such further terms
as might be fair.
In the senate the anti-monopoly resolu-
tions were adopted, with the omission of
the preamble, setting forth among other
things that bills against monopolies ad
been delayed and defeated by committee
appointed in the interest of railroads
The Tammany Republicans regard the
adoption of the resolutions as victory,
and attach ne importance to the rejection
of the preamble. They say the senate is
now pledged to monopoly legislation.

the royal diadem has passed to fair Ceres
now enthroned herd by the head waters
of the Mississippi river.
The exports of cotton during the year
1881 reach in value about two hundred
and forty eight million dollars. The
value of grain exported was about two
hundred and sixty-four million dollars,
making difference in favor of gram
of about twenty-six million dollars. This
result is due to the unprecedented
increase in the acreage and development
of the agricultural interests of the great
West during the last few years. The
march of events which necessitatedf the
removal of the crown with which Mr.
Fletcher wreathed the fair brow of the
fleecy staple quarter of century of ago
has also taken the "colors" from Chicago
and given them to our sister city, Mime
apolis, as the second wheat market in the
Union, New York being the first. The
receipts of wheat in Chicago during 1851
were Is, 122, 900 bushels, against over 49,
900, 900 bushels received in Minneapolis.
We take pardonable pride in this evil
dence of the thrift and prosperity of our
sister city The news will doubtless
prove as great surprise to Minneapolis
as it will be crushing to Chicago and graf
flying to st. Louis. We take the figures
from the 1ri6unes of the two cities, and
of course they must be correct.

An Alleged Fraudulent Land Sale.

A suit was commenced in the district
court yesterday by the state of Minnesota
against B. M. johnson. The complaint
alleges that the defendant is the auditor
of Otter Tail county, and as such was
employed by Auditor Whitcemb as state
land commissioner, as an agent to assist
in making sales of state school and inter-
nal improvement lands, and to keep a re-
cord of the same to be returned to the
land commissioners office; that the state
owned lots 10, 20, 81, %, q, %, %, 80
and 81 of section q, town 1873, range 49,;
that at the October sale, 1879, at which
the defendant oficiatcd, as such agent,
these lands, though not offered for sale
or sold, were returned in the defendants
report as sold; that the sale was a pre-
tended sale merely, and wholly fraudu-
lent that before the fraud was discov-
cred certificate had been issued to the
defendant, which he refuses to surrender
for cancellation. The complaint demands
the return of the certificate and asks for
such other relief as the court may deem
lust.

COTTON rs NOT KING.

Many years ago Mr. Fletcher wrote
book with the view of proving the right
of the fleecy staple to the sobriquet, scot
ton is king" The book was published
in an attractive style, but the text, indit-
ed as it was in philosophical terms and
the erudition of the university, was so
far removed from the comprehension of
the ordinary reader that the work soon
took its place alongside of Humboldt
Cosmos in the libraries of the literati of
the country, and is as seldom seen or
heard of as Cotton Mather's Magnolia. It
is now hard on a quarter of century
since Mr.. Fletcher wrote his book The
changes which time has wrought in the
political and material interests of the
country since that time are difficult of
comprehension, even with the close OBJ
server of the passing events of that day,
who has lived to witness the changes
which have followed in the wake of our
civil war.
The African slave has taken his place
in history with the Spartan helot. The
human chattle incapable of appealing to
the courts and denied voice in the gov
eminent of the country, is to-day an i'm
portant factor in the administration of
justice and in shaping the legislation Of
the country. The theory that slave labor
was the mainstay of the cotton interest Of
the South has gwen way in the light of
results which credit the present wage
paying system with an ann ual yield of
six million bales against four million
under the slave system. Sectionalism
has disappeared; Mason and Dixon's
lives is thing of the pasta myth; and
the people everywhere are happy in the
enjoyment of a prosperity common to
every section Of the Union. Mr..
Fletcher would, were he alive to-day
fail to recognize the data on which he
based his conclusions quarter of CEN
fury ago with so much vigor and such
rare scholarship. The political power
has long since passed from the south
and east to the empire of the great west.

has doubled in the last twenty years, vet

TEXAS TRAGEDY.

Three Murderers, after Killing one Dep.
uty Sheriff and Capturing Another
Make Desperate Attempt to Escape
Citizens Take mp the Chase and the
Three Desperadoes Riddled with Bull
lets.
ST. LOUIS, Jan. 3.-Advices from Ora
ham, Texas, report that the three Nc
Donald boys, murderers of man named
Martin, at Belknap, made desperate eff
fort to escape from jail yesterday, which
resulted in their death and that of dep
uty sheriff, besides seri ouslY weundlng
several other people. About 10 O'Clock
in the morning the Mcdonald boys were
led from the steel cage of the calaboose,
and with Jim Boone and Jack Baldwin,
two other prisoners, were given their
breakfast by two deputies. One deputy
was testing the cage while it was empty,
and the other deputy, Davis Milton, stood
+ in the doorway Of the wooden cell open
ing from the calaboose to the steel cage.
He had pistol in each hand, keeping
watch. Presently he put both
revolvers in one hand to get match
from his pocket, when the McDonalds
sprang upon him suddenly and disarmed
him In the struggle Milton was shot in
the hand. His cries brought Murphee,
the other deputy, from the cage, but on
entering the calaboose he was shot and
instantly killed by the prisoners. The
prisoners then made hole through the
floor to the room below, and taking Mil
ton with them began their escope. A
blood hound watches the Jail,
but by a detour they
wounded him and took their flight in .
southerly direction. BY this time the
whole city was excited. Two hundred
citizens gathered together and followed
the fleeing prisoners. The latter placed
their hostage, Davis Milton, behind them
and threatened to shoot him dead if they
were fired on. Thus the murderers pro-
ceeded some 800 yards, when one citizen
deliberately took aim, and firing, wound
ed one Of the fugatives, who fell. Depu-
ty Milton seized the opportunity
broke loose and ran. A general
fusilade was now exchanged between the
citizens and the escaping prisoners. The
latter entrenched themselves in the
weeds and stumps, and the battle ragged
for some time, when the shooting ceased
and the three McDonalds were dead.
Milton was shot three times. An old
man named Wood was wounded in the
thigh. A waiter named Joe had bone
of his leg shattered. Baldwin and Boone
took no part in the shooting and were re-
captured. Graham was the scene of ter
rible excitement during the bloody ARRAY.
