A Timely Suggestion.

The following facts, SO pertinent in the
great Temperance issues which will not
down at any ones bidding, ought to be
printed in large type, framed and sus-
pended on the walls of every Delaware
home.
1. eighty per cent. of all the crime
committed in the State of Delaware, her
criminal expenses and high taxes, are in
Cured in consequence of the work that
her saloons are continually doing.
2. A large per cent. of the money spent
in the saloons is due the butcher, the
tailor, the shoe maker, and other trades
people; and, therefore, the saloons are a
direct tax upon the people.
8. Seven-eighths of our idiots and
insane in the Diamond State, are attrib.
utable to rum.
4. AS State we spend annually
nearly two and one half times as much
for beer as for education. "-OdeSSa Her.

Eloped In a Storm.

For some time past William D. Hayes,
OF Prairie View, young son of prom
inent citizen of that place, and Miss Ell
onia Settler, 16-year-old daughter of
George Settler, wealthy banker of
Fairland, have cherished fond affection
for each other, but the stern parents of
the girl have all along warned the young
man to cease paying his addresses to her.
Not to delay matters longer, young
Hayes stole his intended bride out dur
mig the absence of her parents, and,
placing her in a buggy, drove through
the storm distance of over fifteen miles
70 this city, where they were married by
Elder Thomas Edwards. The girl was
almost frozen after her long ride, but
hravely faced the wind and weather and
returned in the same manner she came,
but happy bride.-Tuscola Qlls.) Cor.

1888, and then placed on the calendar.
The bill reads:
The consent of Congress is hereby
given that the laws of the several States
relating to the sale of distilled and fer
mented liquors within the limits of each
State may apply to such liquors when
they have been imported in the same
manner as when they have been manu-
featured in the United States.
Mr.. Wilson dwelt at considerable
length on the bene6cent effects of the
anti-saloon law in Iowa, quoting the
opinions of judges as to the remarkable
reduction of crime since the law had
gone into operation. He quoted one OF
the judges as saying in regard to his
judicial district: "In many of the counties
the Jail is almost an unnecessary
building. In the last three counties
visited there was not an occupant of the
Jail. He spoke of the illiteracy of Iowa
having been brought down to / z-Io per
cent; Iowa being thus placed, he said,
cat the head Of the educational column
not only of this country, but of the
world" Such state might hopefully
ask Congress to remove the judicial con.
struction which alone stood as an obstruc-
ton in the way of the rightful exercise Of
her political powers; by which removals
she could succe ssfully suppress crime
within her borders.

Gave Himself away.

"Better than presence of mind in z
railway accident is absence of body
says an ancient jest; but in a case o.
compensation after the accident is over
and you are doing your best to get the
most you can out of the company, pres
ence of mind is all-important.
A curious case of the want of 1t, lately
occurred-I am informed-in a certain
law court. If it is known to any of nv
readers will never believe my informant
again, who assures me it has never been
in print. The injured party, with his
arm in sling, was under cross-examina,
ton.
''You tell me you cannot lift your
arm ?"
"Well, perhaps half an inch-like
this: but it gives me horrible torture; il
pains me even to touch it."
"Poor fellow Just show us how high
you find it possible to lift it."
With many signs and groans he lifted
it three-quarters of an inch.
"And before the accident there was
nothing the matter with it?"
"Nothing whatever"
''How high could you lift it then :"
ooh, as high as you please-lke this, 4"
and he raised his arm over his head.
This pleased the counsel very much,
for it extinguished the plaintiffs claim at
once. For the moment, the poor fellow
had lost his presence of mind.

Wilmington Schools.
(Year ending June goth, 1857

(Year ending June goth, 1857 :
The number of schools in Whining
ton is 2S /; and the number of teachers,
100. 5000 pupils have passed from
all the primary schools to higher grades,
since Jan. Ist, 1875. FAT have grad
uated from the High School since
September 1875. This is an average
of II High School graduates per an
mum for the III years.
From 1875 to 1881 inclusive, the pu-
pills graduated in September. Since
the latter year the graduatons have been
in February and September of each
year.
From September, 1885, to February,
1888, inclusive, no graduates from the
High School are reported.
The average age of Wilmington High
School graduates in 1877 was II yrs,
mos. for boys, and IS yrs, 8 months for
girls; in 1888, it was II yrs. months
for boys, and IS yrs q months, for girls.
The youngest average for boys, was in
1880, and for girls in 1879. Will some
one tell us why the girls should graduate
year later than their brothers? Per-
haps the bNsiey habits of the boys have
something to do with it. The Principal
of the High School is the only male
teacher in Wilmington This and the
fact that the pupils of the Wilmington
Girls High School have, for fourteen
years past, graduated at the age of 10,
and those of the Boys High School at
the age Of II, is an argument in favor of
the c0-edncafiON 0fthe SEXES. They need
the influence of each other, both in the
study-room and the recitation. room.
Both will derive therefrom an ambi-
ton more vigorous and of higher type.
Fencing up the sexes, as though each
was something pernicious to the other, is
always suicidal to manly and womanly
virtue.
Their familiar co-education takes a
valuable hint from the universal effects
of the blessing of brothers and sisters in
the same family. The mixed school is
the natural and easy transition from the
family to virtuous society.
The legitimate fruits of separate as
ISOLATION, are the street corner and club
house gang, talking profanity and slang,
and bevys of bold girls talking worse.
A competent male P,IacibaI at the
head of every school in the city, above
the primary grade, would carry larger
percentage of those 5000 into the High
School, and help to even up the gradu-
ating ages of the boys and girls. We
are not asserting that graduation per-
centages are any certain index to real
mental culture; but such as it is, the
means suggested would improve it.

American War Policy.

A Baltimore Sun special from Wash
ington, with other good things, says:
"It has been frequently asserted that Mr..
Bayard has had no policy; whereas he
has all along had very definite and a
peculiarly American policy. He believes
that the American people have higher
and nobler destiny than that of swag-
gering about among the nations of the
earth, "daring" somebody to "knock a
chip off their shoulder" His idea is that
the Military spirit is to be discouraged in
a republic, except in so far as it is neces-
sary for purposes of defence"
This is pleasant piece of information
which Mr.. Bayard might proftably have
given to the public, in some more direct
way than in private conversations. The
staggering, "chip-bearing" people who
were certain that Uncle Sam and
Germany were going to war over the
Samoan riots, would find it difficult to
understand any true national policy. To
them a few hundred thousand lives,
widows and orphans, and few billions
of war debt, are matters of small moment,
in the balance against the bully's chip OF
honor. 1t would be well to consider that
the dynamite fiend all over this country
is an importation from the 7Oarifks autoc
racies Of the old world.
1t is we'll that this country has no
"War Policy" because our policy is
PEACE, and war is only remote posi-
bility whose policy will always depend on
circumstances. Americans, perhaps more
than any other people on the globe,
realize that war is a relic of barbarism.
But until other nations are civilized
above it, it is weapon which even civili-
cation must use when attacked by bar
barism. This renders it necessary to
look about and estimate our means oil
defense in emergencies. In reviewing
these, we are greatly aided by a glance
at our own history. In the war of the
Revolution our best element of defense
was, what our chief means of security
have been ever since, the width of the
ocean and of the country.
Next to these are our unequalled facili
ties for manufacturing all warlike nipple
ments. And our great rebellion disclosed
the best, in the prompt adaptability of al
classes Of citizens, to the most dangerous
emergencies of war. These fortunat,
circumstances render large standing
army, and any settled War Policy, quite
unnecessary.

PROTECTION.
Its Ten Commandments. No. /.
Re Prudent


The Republican watchword, "Pro-
tection," contains the initials of the po-
litical ten commandments, of which
''Be Prudent" may be regarded as first
and fundamental. The whole idea of
protection is based upon the idea of pru-
dence. 1t includes self defense, "the
first law of nature" 1t supposes an I'M
Outstanding of our condition and privi-
leges, and wise forecast to provide for
safety, welfare and every form of i'm
provement. 1t is only by prudence that
Republican form of Government can
be established, preserved and perfected.
The people should remember this. The
various institutions which characterize it
will not preserve themselves. The work
of prudence is not completed in their
mere initiation. They require fostering
care, vigilant protection, and to be con-
formed to the divine law of progress.
The various forms of productive industry,
legitimate commerce, and wise educa-
cation, comprise most of our beneficent
institutions. In and through them hu-
man welfare is being promoted and hui.
mainly itself lifted up to higher plane.
The industry, commerce and education
of Christian Republic, need constant
protection from the baleful influences OF
lower forms of Government.
Prudence is not selhshness II COM
bines discretion and understanding. II

The Suburbs.

AS the sun would be shorn of its glory,
if its photosphere should be destroyed,
so Wilmington could not afford to dis
pense with its suburbs. A city without
any would be poor indeed. Like the
moon whose atmosphere is CONCEALED
within it, it would shine only by borrowed
light. Per contra, city with an abnN-
dance of suburban, photospheric glory,
is more than ordinarily luminous.
This is sufficient preparation for
pointing out the causes of Wilminton's
remarkable brilliancy, viz: East Lake
Park, Creston, Holly Oak and North
Holly Oak, on the north Rising Sun,
and Silverbrook, on the west; and New
port on the southwest. OF course it does
not become us to make any such
invidious distinction as to say which of
these constitute the incandescent photo
sphere which sheds the light and which
the transparent gaseous chromosphere.
We will kindly suggest to our esteemed
contemporary out toward Philadelphia,
that ETHEREAL as is the most distant of these
without it sunlight would lack most
of its life giving properties; and our
handsome transurban neighbor may add
to that comforting crumb the reflection
that he is not alone in his misery.
1t is true, the city journals which may
be regarded as sort of gaseous sediment
from the upper spheres, may remind us
that the nucleus is the "solid" part of
the sun; and that set OF suburbs with
out any city would be an awfully hollow
sphere. I'VE knew if we didn't say this
''Mac" would, and if he once got started
he would be sure to lug in something
about that infinite, ethereal sphere
beyond all the suburbs
AS to the industrial village suburb,
NEWPORT, we hardly need say that its
orient "EAsr NEWPORT" is merely its
first thorough revival of progressive life,
its actual rising sun. Hence under the
inspiration of the morning beams, NEW
PORT ENTERPRISE is one of the natural
first fruits. And we are glad to find that
its people cordially welcome us as such.
They understand that this distinctive
prefix EAST, has only sort of 7Oayd
significance that is purely incidental.
All the varied interests of Newport,
from the enterprising newsboys, through
the business directory found in our
columns, to the 800 lots upon which
EAST NEWPORT is planting the increase
of population, and the surrounding
fertile farms for whose superior products
we are making market which will soon
tax all their energies, all these interests
are one. All one, let no one forget it |
And if any hard sleeper, rubbing his
eyes, feels inclined to doubt it let some
body show him the way to the N. E. cor
ner of James and Market SITS. land we will
cheerfully show him the "papers for it. Z"
Yes, Newport gets up in the morning,
and works all day. And after
the rest of the town is tired and retired,
the electric light of our sanctum glows
on into the largest hours, until, following
the tinkle of the telephone, comes the
mellihuous accents of our faithful help
meet, "Hello ainf y0H comm home, TO-
aight~ We know better than to daily
after that; down goes the stylograph, off
goes the electric current, and we hasten
to answer that message

An Old Favorite's Husband.

-N uubpauus
Frequently seen about the lobby of the
st. James hotel these days is ruddy
haired man with ruddier face, whose
deep lines are fully revealed by its closely
shaven condition. He is always the
center of wide circle of friends, who
listen eagerly to his "reminiscences of
theatrical events and sporting expert
ences OF many years ago. A score of
years back he was best known to fame
as Lucille Westerns husband, but now
from one end of the country to the other
he is spoken of as "Tim Mead the the
atrical manager" He does not appear
to be more than so years of age, but the
occurrences in which he bore part reveal
the fact that he is well advanced in the
sixties Seventeen years have elapsed
since the death of his gifted wife, who, in
many respects was one of the greatest
natural actresses this country has pro-
duced. Mead's mode of life has changed
radically since she died. and now he is
theprosperous associate of David Hender-
son in the management of the Chicago
opera house.-New York World.
