sends her bill Of fare from Queen
Charlotts Sound, On board the
City of Topeka, the steamer that
landed her and a crowd of other
passengers at Sitka. On the
margin of the yellow leaflet is
written inpencil, Glove for all"
This with her literally means

The Cleaners.

The cleaners re organized after
the summer vacation with nearly
all the members present and a
few new ones. Since the death
of little Fife Hogan the Guild
has not adopted another child,
but work for the Polly Monroe
cot at the Inhrmary, which they
support entirely. The after
hours aer spent in making warm
garments to help supply the
needy for the coming winter.
Although this society is COM
posed of the younger girls, they
show great interest in doing
what they can. The cleaners de-
sire to thank friends for their
kind donations, and are always
grateful for any little help they
may receive, for it is the drops
that fill the bucket.

"A Band OF PiOus Men and

! On Thursday afternoon, as is
the custom in this city, few
Jealous woman and men assem-
bled at the jail to hold religious
service for the benefit of the un-
fortunates confined there. I'm
fortunate, however guilty, to be
shut in from freedom and useful
ness by their own act. "Uncle
Billy" produced his big bunch
of keys and soon the ponderous
doors swung heavily back among
the faces pressed in curiosity
against the grating. Stone
flooring, stone walls, iron doors,
everywhere bolts and bars.
Within the high enclosure the
inmates of the cells gathered,
filing out from the dark and
musty chambers Of the ground
floor
About forty were soon in the
stone court. all Of them black ex-
cept nine. Chief among the
white men stood Bole Roberts,
a man whose naturally honest
features now bear the shadow of
anxiety. Upon the decision Of
one man rests his nextfour years
on this earth. The dictum of a
single human being. He reali-
yes that whisky brought him
where he is, as it has brought
many, if not all, of his compan-
ions. The negroes all sat
around the pump platform or
against the high wall. The
white men stood, hats off, re-
spectfully watching and listening.
There was no defiance anywhere,
no sullenness, and very little dis
play Of indifference. To the
short address, the prayer, the
reading and the singing all
listened. One man wept bit
terly and freely. Many voices
joined in the chorus, Il Am So
Glad That JesusLoves Me, even
Me"
At the close two of the ladies
went around taking the names
Of new inmates, and presenting
prettily bound pocket testa-
ments to those not heretofore
supplied.
Perhaps some good is done at
J these services from week to
week. Perhaps they are soon
forgotten. At all events they
afford RECREATION, if nothing bet
ter to those lives spent in such
torturing monotony. The two
woman, Mrs. Insco Of infamous
celebrity, and Mrs. Pugh whose
sentence was for completely in
theft, are upstairs. To them the
ladies went first, and were most
welco1ns visitors. :,

metal slumina IN all branches and
has especial facilities for its production.
The metal is made from clay by a pat
ented process and is very costly. because
OF the expense of the process. Efforts
have been made for years to discover
some means to produce the metal cheaply
enough to place it on par in price with
other metals. Three years ago IL was
$40 pound. Improved processes have
reduced 1t to So 80 q pound but still
leaves big margin between it and iron
or steel, which is FIVE cents a pound
Aluminium contains the best qualities
OF many other metals. 1t can be worked
easily. its strength is great. 1t will not
corrode or rust, acids viii not affect it, il
will take high polish, its specific gravity
is little greater than that OF water and
its weight is one third that of iron.
Aluminium can be alleged with other
metals easily land to advantage. It
can be made into wall paper that will last
forever. 1t is impsrishable. If the cost
of the metal be reduced SO that it NAV
be available in all classes of metal work
it will supers EIDE all other of the baser
metals. A company in Pittsburg and
the Frismuth company are the only
makers Of the metal in this country.

CONSTRUCTING A PARK.


The New Kirkwood Park on East Flew
epth etreet-whnt 10 win he.
Contractor Alvin Morrison is rapidly
completing the work of constructing q
wall in front of Kirkwood Park to keep
the Brandywine from veIhowing the
park property.
The park commission intends to make
a beautiful park out Of this property for
the residents of the East side. The
commission started the work by having
all the upper part of the earth removed,
exposing the DO wlders of which this 10
cality is filed After this had been done
the next step was to build q wall and
wharf along the waterfront. This part
Is being completed as quickly as possible.
After this has been finished the ground
will be sodded and planted with trees.
This work cannot be done before next
season, and the park cannot be used be-
fore then. However, it will not take
long to complete it, once this part is
started. The trees will be planted in
regular order, and the lawn will be
broken only by pretty, winding paths and
drives The drives will be of gravel,
and will give quite rustic appearance to
the pretty, little breathing space. Seats
will be placed in the park next season,
but 1t will not be ready to give shelter
from the hot sun to the weary pedestrian
for some time
The new park will be one ~ he best
parks in the city and will hel Z. atty to
ease the sufferings Of the Ct, during
the summer months. 1t Is stuated on
the historic Brandywine which here has
elough water to float smel! .cnooners.
The visitors to the park will be able to
lie at their ease beneath the cool shade
of the trees and gaze at the cool waters
with pretty boats sailing over the smooth
glinting surface. Across the stream to
the right are the marshes and an island.
To the left is bluff In the distance
can be seen the smoke curling gracefully
from the -four mills and water works.
The park is one Of the most conven-
lent in the city. 1t IS due to the line Of
the Wilmington City Railway Company.
It is close to the great manufacturing
establishments OF TIE East side and the
crowded residence quarter Of
the city 1t can be easily
reached from the other side of the
Brandywine by way of Eleventh street
bridge. and altogether 1t is an admirable
site for park and one which will bene-
fit large number of people at a COM
paratively small expense to the city.
