The respectable women of Thibet al.
why's appear ins public with their faces
painted black, so as TO- disguise their
charms and thus prevent frail men from
the perils Of too great admiration. Be.
fore going out Of doors they invariably
rub their faces over with . black glute-
nous varnish, something like currant
jelly in appearance. The object being
to render themselves as unattractiye us
possible, they daub this composition
over every feature, so as to render their
faces as unlike those Of human beings
~ possible. Mr.. Hue in his travsls in
the country ascerieined that tho singular
custom had its origin in the decree Of a
Lama King, some 200 years ago. This
King, being man OF austere habits,
was DESTROYS of checking the license
which prevailed among the people, and
which had even spread to the priests Of
the Buddhist monasteries TO such an
extent as to relax their discipline, issued
an edict that no woman should appear
in public otherwise than with her face
daubed in the manner described. Severe
temporal and spiritual penalties enforced
the decree among them, even the terrible
wrath Of Buddha. Tradition says that
women were perfectly Resigned and
obedient, and that, far from the etic,
giving rise to petticoat rebellion, the
practice was cheerfully adopted and has
been faithfully observed down to oui
own time. Now, it is considereda point
Of religious creed and evidence Of q

Elkton Fair.

The Fairs heretofore held under the
direction of the Cecil County Agricul-
tural Society have been eminentlv and
deservedly successful, but the one
which is to take place on their beauti-
full grounds at Elkton, October End,
Bird, 4th and 9TH, promises to eclipse all
previous efforts. The exhibits will be
of varied character, embracing choice
breeds of cattle, horses and other farm
stock and products of the farm, orchard
and garden. The poultry show, it is
believed, will be the largest and most
complete ever witnessed in the State.
The entrees for trials of speed are nu-
merous and the races, which will con-
sist of running, trOtting and hurdle con-
tests, promise to be interesting and ex-
citing. There will also be pony races.
In addition to the features ALREADY
mentioned, band of Indians will be
encamped on the ground, and each
day, in full costume, give an ex-
hibitiOn of their native war dance.
For the convenience of those living
along the line, the Z. w. & B. Rail-
road, at all times seeking the pleasure
of its patrons has arranged to run a
special train leaving ElktOn at P. NJ,
stopping Mt all intermediate stations
and connecting at Newark for Della
ware City and points on the Delaware
Division South Of POrter's, and at Will
mingtOn with train leaving for Chester
and Philadelphia at 6.55 p. NJ, thus en-
abling those who desire to visit the
fair to remain sufficiently long to wit
ness all its attractions. Tickets have
been placed on sale good by either the
special or any regular train including
admission to the fair and good to re-
turn with until the 9th of October in
elusive, at remarkably low rates.

GROWTH OF DELAWARE Towns
1t appears from our Peninsular ex-
changes that the value of town lots and
houses on the Peninsula is steadily adj
vancing. In Smyrna there are no
houses for rent, and in Harrington,
Milford and Georgetown those houses
that are for rent bring almost any rea-
sonable price. In the latter place the
rents have been advanced from 80 to
90 per centum on what they were a
year ago. In Dover, it is said, town
lots which were bought less than a
year ago at 5000 have just been sold at
prices varying from $500 to $500 each.
More or less building has been done
this summer in every railroad town in
the State, but the demand for houses
still continues.-MOrning Neus.

Street Disorders.

SMYRNA, DEL, Sep. 24th.
MR.. EDITOR.-I was highly gratified
to find in the issue of the TINES last
week an editorial denouucing the law.
Icssness and Saturday night disorders
that occur in our beautiful town. The
evil has been growing on us and if not
soon stopped the result will be heart
rending to many homes and severe to
all. lam glad the TINES gives "no un-
certain sound in this matter, but its
warning is timely. The picture drawn
Is one of real, stubborn fact and should
encourage every good citizen of
smyrna to stand up for the right.
Take rum out of Smyrna, and my word
for it, we will have a peaceful, quiet
town at all times and scarcely need
either lookup or police. / hear of
some who are trying to boost the rum
interest by saying they can not see
such disorder as spoken of and give as
evidence the absence of prisoners in
the lookup. If the lookup had
had its due last Saturday night, a
score of drunken rowdies would have
sobered up within its walls. have
evidences from all quarters of the
town, that quiet slumber was kept
from many weary eyes until as late as
2 P. NJ. Sunday morning, simply and
only on account of rum in our commu-
nifty. And Smyrna is not the only
town in our little commonwealth that
is cursed by rum. The Wilmington
MOrnin9 Neacs takes up the strain as it
hears the wall from Milford, George
town, Dover, Smyrna and MiddletoWn
and asks the pertinent question, "Is it
true" Yes, it is true, sadly and woe
fully true, and the statement is also
true, that if it was not for whiskey
these things would not be. I am glad
the press is speaking out, for if the
pulpit and press hold their peace in
such times, we cannot expect anv
move to be made even by our good
and moral people for the suppression of
this terrible evil. ~
The above communication was in
tended for our last issue but was crow

there. Two of the converts, who were

for baptism by immersion. The Bap-
lists offered tie use of their baptistry
for the purpose, but the pastor declin-
