A Reported Dead Man Visits The
Wing Office.

1t isn't often in this life that man
has the opportunity to read his own obit-
uary, yet such cases sometimes occur.
In June last the newspapers of the Pen
insula published report of the death by
suicide of Mr.. Emory r. Burnite who
then was resident of Salt Lake City.
Mr.. Burnite is son of the late James K.
Burnite who resided formerly at Cherry
became a very successful lumber dealer
at FELTON, Delaware. Emory R. Burnite
whose reported death had so distressed
his friends in Delaware is a lawyer by
profession, but in September 1887 he re-
moved from Easton, Talbot county to
Salt Lake City, Utah, where he engaged
in the real estate business. In May last
the decomposed remains of man were
found IN that city. Investigation showed
that death had been caused by self
administered dose of laudanum. The
unfortunate man had taken care to de-
stroy every evidence by which his Identity
might be traced. II SO happened that
his personal description tailed very
closely with that of Mr. Burnite. He was
described as about 45 years of age, stout
in stature, partially bald; with light
mOustache and chin whiskers, and wear
ing massive gold chain. The authori-
ties of Salt Lake telegraphed this de-
scription East, and it meeting the eyes
of friends of MIR. Burnite on the Eastern
Shore, they in turn telegraphed inquiries
to him which it appears never reached
him. This fact it seems was sufficient
inference upon which to base the identity
of the dead man, and the report was i'm,
mediately published of Mr.. Burnite's
suicide. 1t ran the course of the news
papers East until short time afterwards
the mistake was discovered and cor
rected. On Thursday Mr.. Burnite called
talker gave an entertaining account OF
his experience. He bears about as little
resemblance to corpse as man can
who enjoys the robust health he does.
He stopped at Elkton on his way from
Oswego, New York, where his daughter
resides. He does not contemplate re-
turning to the West but expects to re.
main East, He thinks his experience
while unusual, is rivalled by that of his
father who had his funeral sermon
preached before he was dead. When on
his way to the funeral of the late Alex.
aEder Wilson prominent citizen of this
county, the Rev. Jas. L. Houston was
informed of the death of Mr.. James K
Burnlte at FELTON, Delaware. All being
we'll known and life long Methodists,
Mr.. Houston in his remarks at Mr.. Will
sons funeral, spoke very feelingly also
of Mr.. Burnites death. A few days after
wards IN going to Wilmington over the
Delaware Railroad who should Mr. Hous
ton meet face to face upon the train but
Mr.. Burnite himself. Mr.. Houston's
feelings may be easier imagined than de
scribed. Mutual explanations followed
and the awkward mistake had Lo un
| pleasant results.
Mr.. Emory r. Burnite left Elkton OF
Thursday after visiting thefamily of Mr.
Joseph Wells, whose wife, Mrs. Cornelis
| Wells, is cousin of his mother wht
before her marriage was a Miss HylanG
of this county.

cratic dodge, 10, that is can call it.
At least the Thud Party nte in both Yer
mont and Maine shows 4 at they nave.
Look Tor instance how tho Third Party
leaders acted in New Jersey They
actually joined hands with the whisky
ring Democrats to defeat the Republican
party. But in spite of their inconsistent
and surprising course the Republicans
succeeded in passing local option law
for that State. Now we all know that
the plan on which the Temperance move
ment was organized in this county was a
non p"rtizam one. A county temperance
Convention was held at Elkt,n some two
years ago. A resolution was adopted
declaring that 1t Was not identified with
any political movement, Or in the interest
OF any political party. The idea was to
draw from both political parties and to
antagonize neither. There was sus-
picion attached to some engaged in the
work that they would like to strike out
on a new line, but better counsels pre-
vailed and the temperance movement
worked on tremendously in this county,
earnest men in the work being assured
that their political opinions would not in
any event be involved in the local issue.
To this non -partizan attitude of the
been accomplished. First, the local
option law, afterwards the prohibitory
one. In the meantime we were pointing
to the success of prohibition in the
county, and were making some progress
in educating public sentiment on the
evils of the unrestricted sale of intoxica- |
ting liquors. But the leaders of the |
Third Party movement were not salts
fed to move forward on this line. They |
had personal ambitions to satisfy, and |
began drawing parallels between the |
liquor evil aud the evils of slavery as it |
once existed, to fortify themselves in |
their independent party attitude. They |
argued and argue now, that slavery was |
never abolished as national evil until |
III was uau6 TIC ISSUE Vi d udUlOudl party. |
so they claim it is equally necessary In
the case OF Intoxicating liquors. But
slavery was local evil while the other
affects every section of our country In |
the interest of slavery minority ruled |
this country. We seek method by |
which the voice of the majority in every
State shall outlaw the Rum traffic. There
fore we believe the only effective method
in which to work is by State organiza-
tions and within state lines We see no
great result to be gained by national
party organization in the present condi-
ton of public sentiment in some states.
We must begin at the bottom and work
up. 1t is true better opportunity for
individual prominence is afforded by
national and independent party organiza-
ton, but the solid work is after all done
within the lines of state organization S.

citation and of his remarks upon the
question of introducing manual training
in the public schools. He states. also
that the public school systems OF Penn
sylvania, Delaware and Maryland were
respectively reviewed before the associa
ton Chat of Maryland by Prof. NJ. A
NewelD and expressed himself as of the
opinion that the Mary land system is
superior to either of the others.
Owing to the inclemency of the
weather, which prevented the attendance
of many members, the programme OF
exercises was short. Miss |. E. Gerry
read an instructive article ''On Giving
Advice" by Joseph Addison. Mr.. Squier,
while approving the manner of the read
ing, dissented from some of the views
expressed by the author. In answer to a
referred question, Miss Aunie Quin stated
that she preferred the method of teach
ing reading by means of spelling, rather
method the better adapted to make a
child self dependent. The answer APP
peared satisfactory.
The program for the October meeting
is as follows: Lecture. Rev. Mr.. Oils
essayists, Miss Belle Stewart and Mr.
Jas. Thomas, Jr.; readers, Misses Emma
Wilson and Belle Vanneman singing,
Miss Reba and Sophie Buckley; question
for discussion, What should be the OBJ
ject of this ASSOCIATION and by what
means can it best be promoted ?'
A resolution, also, was passed requir

red for the September meeting to be pre-
pared to answer at the October meeting.

A MomentOus Question Solved.

- S"SoCho" SoltOus
Since the discussion regarding property
qualification for voters there has not been
more interest taken in any question of
public concern than that developed this
week. The mnmentous question that has
agitated the minds of many is known as
the eighteenth century ques-
ton. 1t is whether man born in March
1880 was born in the 18th or 195h century?
Many were the discussions and heated
debates over the matter. Tho Howard
House was the chief point of the engage
ment. William, the barister, is an out
spoken 18th century advocate, while the
business men and the doctor upheld the
last century part of the argument.
Samuel B. discreetly kept straddle the
fence ready to jump down on the side
that proved right and say 81 told you
So" The anctioneer is man of figures.
He didn't pretend to know which was
right but said it could be easily solved.
Addressing the banker he said you're
slick with fggers, count it up. 1861 days
to year, 6gger it up. The accountant
declined the problem.
One youth who evidently thought there
was DO editor with brains this side of the
metropolis addressed the editor of the
New York Herald, and the following APP
peared on the editorial page of Wednes-
days issue of that great journal.
ELKToN, MD, Sept. 15
To the Editor Of the Herald:
Your reply through the Herald to the following
inquiry will be much appreciated "a child was
born in March, 1862. Did this Occur in the 18th or
Itch centuls. SUBSCRIBER.
The answer was given in the headline
"the eighteenth"
Still another seeker after knowledge
addressed the editor of the Wilmington
E.rery Eoen1ng and he replied in the edi-
tofial columns of the issue of Wednesday
in favor of the 18Th century, giving the
following 10Th began with January
list, 1901. Let Reader consider that
the first day of the Christian era must
have been January 1st, A. d. and not
January LIST, A. D. o. and Therefore the
first century could not have ended until
December so, A d. 100.
