The Philadelphia Record has the fol-
lowing In regard to the prosecution Of
Charles Kyle, in this city, Tor selling Ice
cream on the Sabbath:
only the other day devout and con-
scientious chief OF police set the town OF
Wilmington In a sort of mild uproar by
causing the arrest of well-known citi-
zen, charged with the heinous offence of
selling Ice cream on Sunday. It is
scarcely necessary to remind the good
people OF Wilmington that the peculiar
form OF devotion and conscientiousncss,
which consists in digging up mouldy and
obsolescent laws to w,rry the people is
only cranklsm of q pronounced and dis
tinctive type. The practical refusal Of
the municipal court to take cognlzance of
the case reflects credit upon both judge
and public prosecutor. Sunday Ice
cream will doubtless remain one Of the
possibilities of existence In Wilmington,
despite all efforts to suppress it."

A Tidal Wave.

1t Is on land, and on very high land
too, this time. The tidal wave heit
alluded to is not water but crowds o.
people rushing to North Holly Oak, &c
invest while the low priced lois are still
offered.
The month of August Is passing rapid.
ly, the price may be raised In September.
No favoritlsm is shown In tile sale OF
these lots, every one has the same chance
and can buy a lot 25x125 feet for $50.
The North Holly Oak people challenge
the whole world to beat this price. T,e r
land Is excellent and the title good. The
sale OF these lots at such a remarkably
low price has stopped the sale of ali
other land in the vicinity.
This is the golden opportunity for the
young man, the old man and the poor

Pleasant Time the Experience of All

Pleasant Time the Experience of All
The steamer Republic took down Q
mixed excursion Of New Castle County
grangers and Railroad yardmasters to
cape May yesterday, and a delightful
time was experienced by all. The rail-
road men and the grangers hob-nobbej
teogetler and enjoyed themselves es II
they were OF the same flesh and blood.
A granger would tell q raIlroader ali
ABOUT the culture Of crops, and the rail-
ioaders would reeiprocate BY enliebtep-
ing the farmers as 10 the mysieries OF
switching trains ut short notice.
They all ate at the same table, ate the

drinkables, bathed in the same surf, and
In TACT when the difference between them
was struck 1t was found that they were
OF ike passions, different In politics and
reiiglon like other people, only the gran
gers til!ed the soil and the railroaders ATE
the iarmers' produce while they ran rail-
road trains.
About 100 persons, yardmaster men,
with ffir sprinkling Of solid farmers,
leit the Water aud French streets depot

before 1t reached the pier were about 600
yardmasters from Philadclphia which
with others aboard and the additions to
the excursion at the Wilmington &
Northern pier made up company Of
about 1900 persons.
Tho trip down the bay was delightful
one, aud everything Of interest was taken
In and sized up according to the imag Ina
tion. The excursion did not reach Cape
May Landing until about O'Clock,
which, though somewhat late, gave the
excursionists ample time to take run up
10 Cape May City and take q bath In the
ocean.
At4 O'Clock the return trip was com.
meneed, with the romance OF running
through succession OF thunder showers
all the way up the bay. The thunder
and lightning ided the most intense In
terest to the Sd ,e, but was not relished
by timid ladies and children. The boat
stopped Mt Delaware City and let of tho
Port Penn and Delaware City Changers.
and the arrival at the w. g. N. pier was
made about 7.3o o'clock.
Among those who came up from Cape
May with the excursion were: Rev.
