..DOcp Was Knocked Down Eight Times

doe" Was Knocked Down Eight Times.
Many persons noticed on our streets
Saturday evening and yesterday tall
and rather handsome young man, who
was conspicuous by his wide swagger,
and pair of tiger pantaloons that were
a revelation of the possibilities Of loud
dressing.
This young man, accompanied by two
others, one of whom was called Doc
Walker, passed the corner of Third and
Orange streets in that condition, which
among bad young men is known as
''highly- -herbed" There, it is said, some
one whistled the first bar of ''Where Did
You Get That Hat2'
Doc thought that this was breach of
hospitality, that he would not pass over
lightly and he went back to ask for an
explanation. Failing to get a satisfac-
tory apology he then made pass at a
young man and was knocked down. His
friends came to his rescue and a general
fight ensued, in which it is said, Doc
showed misunderstanding qualities
of no mean order having been knocked
down eight times in about two minutes.
He showed no other evidence of the
encounter, but a redness of his left cheek
and an ear full Of mud. The tall young
man was knocked under wagon and a
colored man, in the midst of the melee,
ran Off with the other dudes hat Doc
said that they retired in good order, but
an eye witness said he would consider il
mad stampede.

WHEN WILL THEY COMET
What Reception Will be rendered the
Pan-American Delegates?


The Pan American Congress viii visit
Wilmington late in November. Hon.
George II. Bates received a telegram from
w. E. Curtis Friday evening stating the
impossibility of the congress coming TO
this city from Philadelphia. The pro-
gram brings the congress to that city on
November S, next Friday, and the in
tention had been to bring them here on
their way to Washington. But the dele
gates win go to Harrisburg and inspect
the coal and iron products and viii go to
Washington without passing through
here.
The Chester Times of Friday has this
point:
"The Pan-American Congress is ex-
pected to come TO Chester, and while the
time is not definitely fixed, it is more
than likely that Monday, November II,
may be the day for its visit. The trouble
has been to fix upon day that the tide
would serve at proper hour for launch.
The original date, November 10, would
not, as it will be high water too early IN
the morning and too late at night, and
launch by candle light, while it might be
unique, would be attended with too many
risks AS soon as the program is liked
upon the public will receive notice.
The above clipping was shown to
George H. Bates, Esq. He said: THAT
must have been based on the first ar
rangements; the same arrangements
which we had expected to be made. But
that plan is altered and Mr. Curtis says
the Delegates will visit Chester during
the same trip on which this city is visited
| The Congress will spend several
days in Philadelphia then will
90 through the Chester Valley, and
after that will convene in Washington.
The session may last for several weeks
and it looks as if it will be late in
November when the gton-Chester
trip is made The intention of the invi-
tation committee is to send representa-
tive to Philadelphia while the delegates
are there aud make the arrangements for
the trip verbally. We have not yet con
sidered the method Of entertaining the
visitors.
Elwood G. Jackson. of the jackson
Sharp Company, said "The matter OF
entertainment is now in the hands Of the
Board of Trade and it should prepare the
program. We will be glad and willing to
show the delegates through our works
/ suppose it would be a good idea to take
them ride on the electric cars"
Mayor Harrington said he had not
thought much as yet on the reception,
but would consider the best plan as soon
as the date is decided
Daniel w. Taylor. president Of the
Board of Trade, said 81 wish you would
draw attention to the poiut in the Morn
ing News report of our meeting last
night, where it says Further considera
tion of the matter (Pan-American visit
was postponed The committe reported
progress and was continued The News
point raises the suggestion that tn,
visit was given up. have nothing t.
say concerning the reception"
Other men in speaking Of the prope
reception to be accorded the delegates
thought that the City Council, the Boar
Of Trade and the business men shoul,
share the expense equally.

pot Mr.. s. K. Laundon, who has charge
of the subscription list, informs us that
the amount will be raised in very few
days and the site purchased. The build
ing will be erected ready for occupancy
on or before July 1st, 1890.
Next year the real estate will be ap-
praised again. With our present State
debt hanging over US and the constant in
crease in county, township and corpora
ton expenses it would seem that real
estate should be appraised at a higher
rate than ten years ago. But farming
lands, city and village property having
greatly decreased in values the people will
naturally expect the valuation placed at
least 33 per cent lower, and perhaps it
will be done. But what benefit will 1t be
to US in the end? The levies must be in
creased or bonds must be issued To create
the necessary revenues to meet our Incl
dental expenses. The debts we have
already contracted must be paid and all
subsequent expenses must be paid. The
present valuation had better remain undis-
turbed.
The business houses in the cities are
employing lady clerks whenever the place
can be filed by one. The merchants claim
that goods are sold on close margins, and
in order to compete they must reduce ex-
penses in the way Of salaries. This will
be cold comfort to the gentlemen clerks
TO be compelled to leave their counters to
permit cheaper help to come in. There is
cause for this. Young men of the pres
ent day sneer at young women who take
the domestic field and class them as
Kitchen mechanics" "mop singers" &c.
BY this treatment the young women make
desperate effort to educate themselves TO
reach some place Of business where they
can earn living. They can and will
work cheaper, and the result is the young
dudes are turned out to pasture for their
sneers, which serves them right. II Ia
but natural for the gentler sex to follow
the domestic circle, and they will continue
in that line il properly treated.
