BUT in few weeks Bayard will disap.

THERE is some miseonception abroad
concerning suffrage. It is indiscrimi.
nately termed a right duty and a
privilege Of an elector. Properly it is a
trust that the elector discharges for the
non-electors. In that light what can be
the standing Of man who betrays his
trust to the state and to the non-electors
as well by refusing to pay his taxes. He
only values his privilege for the bride
it commands in the open market. He is
basely recreant to his trust.

LETTERS From THe PEOPLE.



To the Editor Of EVENING JOURNAL.
M"Where there is will there is way.
How wonderful is human nature. The
Democrats of the Legislature are two
conscientious to vote for convention
because they assert that as by their oath
they are to support the constitution of
the State of Delaware The constitution
in its language clearly means that the
majority of the peopls, whenever they
express their wish by a vote, can with
the consent Of the Legislature elect dele
gates or hold said convention. The Re
publicans believe as well as the people
who forward a convention that the vote
polied IN 1887 considering all the cir
cumstances, was majority expressive Of
the votes Of the state for a convention,
but, the Democrats who are not in good
faith and would like to thwart Republican
efforts, oppose II and want some excuse
to sustain them, but it won't do.
They are heaping Goals upon their fun
eral pile. Why did not the holding over
Senators think of their oath to support
the constitution Of the state two wears
ago when they took upon themselves the
responsibility Of filling vacancy in their
own body. A member ineligible was
sworn in the first day Of session and re-
sworn in February. If he had been a
Senator in January, he did not need
swearing in in February, and If he was
ineligible after being sworn in at the
hrst day Of session, his seat became va
cant, and there is no organic law that
gives the Senate right to make Sena-
tors. The people do that. This only
proves that wherever there is a will
there is always a way. II we have con.
yention Il has to 60 back to the people
for ratification, but in the making of
Senator's it is arbitrary in the extreme.
Oh consistency thou art Jewel

Hot Weather Maxims.

From the Boston Transcript.
The Listener has three tried and Trustworthy
maxims for hot weather conduct, aud outside
OF them he knows no trick or device by means
of which the dog star can be circumvented.
These maxims are;
]. Wear as hight and loose clothing az You
dare.
2. Take plenty of exercise. but in calm way.
8. Drink no alcoholic OF effervescent beyer-
ages.
The clothing question is easily solved. A
sign in Washington-street clothing store
window says: You can dress like q gentleman
II you have Sl5." Perhaps you can dress like
gentleman for that amount whether Won can
dress as one or not. But with els man can
at least get certain articles of clothing that win
make him very comfortable on a hot day. as
Tar as clothing can go. In exercising the great
point IL not to be afraid Of the heat, but not at
the same time to choose violent diversions.
The youth Or maiden who is in the habit of
playing base ball or lawn tennis ana quite ac-
customed TO the exercise, may play il on hot
day as safely as ever; and people who are in
the habit of walking fair amount have moth
ing to fear, but every thing to gain from keep
ing up their customary exercise in summer.
But exceptional physical tests should Certainly
be avoided under burning sun.

Played a Fly for an Oboe Note.

From the Philadelphia Record
The orchestra that is giving daily concerts in
the Lemon Hill pavilion was playing a soft. sad
symphony yesterday when the oboe sent forth
a wild, startling blast that made half the crowd
jump from their seats in terror. The whistle
of a passing engine on the Reading railroad
sounded like a lullaby in comparison. The
leader stood petrifed with indignation for a
moment, then waved his stick, and the music
went on.
'iHimmel!" exclaimed the oboe-player after
the concert, when an explanation was de-
manded; "a fly vas on der book. / thought he
vas a node, und play him.
''See that there are no flies on your music
hereafter" replied the leader, dropping un-
consciously into slang, and the player promised.
Mrs. Ward of New York city, her son-in-law,
Jos. keating, and his two-year-old child and
Mary johnson, a nurse, were killed YESTERDAY
by an engine wrecking the carriage in which
they were driving while crossing the track of
the New Jersey Central railroad ON the road to
