Four New Diplomats.

In the appointments which have been
made to the diplomatic service tine
policy of President Cleveland seems to
be very definitely outlined. The whole
four Of the appointments represent tne
straight laced sristocratic wing OF the
Democracy Governor McI4ane OF Mary
land comes nearer than any OF them TO
representing the real Democracy. Mr.
Pendletop is the leader III the Demo-
cratic party for Civil Service Reform
something which tue masses OF the
Democracy late and especially do they
hate PendletoD. He has just been
ostraeised and turned down by the
election of Henry Il. Payne TO succeed
him in the Senate, where he served will

THE Dover Delawarean vigorously
opposes the purchase by the State OF
the new county building for an asylum
for the insane, and charges that 1t is
an attempt on the part of the Trustees
of the Poor of this county, to unload
the enormous debt incurred by the
erection of the building on the State
This may or may not be 30, but 1t does
not alter the fact that Delaware should
have some place where the insane can
be properly cared for, and not placed
in what has been asserted are worse
than cattle pens in New Castle, KEN
and Sussex counties. The building
offered to the State has many advanta
ges, and it is scarcely probable tna5
place so we'll suited for the purpose cal
be erected for the price at which this il
offered 1t is very probable that tn
arguments advanced by the Delaware II
would he reversed, If the buildin
was in Kent instead of New Castl
County.

~ IL Might Have Beep.3

1t looks as though the Senatorial con-
test in orr State has resulted in chang
ing this future political program. The
prospects of certain gentlemen for po-
litical preferment is nothing like as
bright now as it was before the meeting
of the Legislature, and more than one
can realize that simple mistake can
readily be tortured into a downright
crime. We sympatbize with those
whose political star seems to be waning
and about to go down into darkness, at
of all sad words of tongue or pen

himself at Mountville, Lancaster coun

parents reprimanded him for playing
ball in the afternoon. What fortu-

for the same. If they had, Wilmington

Roller Skating.

Opposition to the roller skating craze
comes from all quarters. The minister's
say that 1t tends to immortality the
doctors say it tends to injure the health;
theatrical managers say 1t tends TO In
tellec.ual deterioration the saloon
keepers say 1t is destructive to business,
and the druggists say it has a very
baneful influence in mo-e respects than
one. When the opposition comes from
30 many quarters, 1t is evident that the
favored pastime must be very enticing,
or 1t would be speedily abandoned.
1t is not often that ~ many interests OF
such a diverse character unite in oppo-
sition to the same thing. The truth isi
that roller skating is like every othei
source of enjoyment ; when moderately
INDUCED in it is rather beneficial thar
otherwise when carried to excess 1t Ii
exceedingly hnrtful. IL should there
fore be taken in homo pathic doses
Moderate exercise is always healthful
while excessive exercise is likely Il
produce evil consequences. JudgmeD
should therefore be used in the rink a
well as in other places. The craze
However, will soon pass away, and in
years time many who row enjoy tn
exercise so highly, will lock upon it a
tame and insipid. Let all who are In
terested in the well being of society en-
, deavor to shape and control the pas
+ time, and in the end it may be foun
that those who are most fully tascins
ted, will become themselves and b
clothed in their right mind again.

JAPAN AND CHINA.
Col. Sanford's Lecture last Night
at the Opera House.

/ The opera house contained large sud-
ence last night who assembled TO listen to a
lecture OF the University course given by
Col. Sanford, who, on two similar occasions
has pleased and interested his hearers.
The subject chosen was "Japan ard
China" and the Col. began by speaking of
those who were In his party on shipboard.
and their idea If the ignorance of the Jap
anese as 8 people. By experience this idea
WIS proven to be erroneous, as it was dis
covered that many things In art aud artzan-
ship were more than four hundred wears
old. As an illustration, the Col sroke OF
their wonderful skill in bronze, and mem
toned their jess" which, although so
large as 10 easily permit three full grown
men TO sit on the claspei hands,
was yet so perfect In de-
tai OF hsir, eyebrows, ETC., as TO be almost
marvellous. He also spoke of their use of
gold snd silver coin, their strange musical
kites, their great bell which, when struck
with an immense Stick "about the size of
the lecturer" gave forth q more delicious
sound than ever listened to in Italy or
Russia, their secret OF dwaring fruit trees,
their peculiar habits Of eating, which is
always performed when seated on the
ground, their hospitality, their remarkable
honesty and their initiative hsbits, nota-
bly, the idea borrowed from the lecturers
party of wearing stovepipe hats one wo-
man appearing with no less than three on
at one time ard carrying four about her
neck. There were many other illustrations
OF these peculiar people and the lecturer
then took up the other portion of his lee
ture, namely, China. Here was also found
a "Joss" and many religious superstiiions,
including the belief that the souls of the
priests when they died entered drove of
hogs which were kept sacred for this rea-
son.
The peculiar methods of punishment
were also related and many other national
characteristics, among these the habi, of
eating rats.
In closing his lecture Col. Sandford |
spoke of the astonishing American custom |
Of making heroes OF criminals and gave
it his condemnation In brief, eloquent and |
telling words. Throughout the lecture |
there were humorous illustrations, fine
points ard excellent effects used which kept |
the audience amused as well as instructed, |
and while it is impracticable to give any.
thing like report OF il in the brief space
allotted, it is safe TO say that no one who
heard il bnt was delighted and will give the
Colonel a warm welcome should he visit us
or the fourth time
