wonderful PopuIarItY.

The fact that the sale of DIR. PieTce's
Pleasant Purgatiye Pellets exceeds that
OF any other pill In the market, be it
great or small, is on account of the
fact that they are tiny, little, sugar
coated granules, and that in most cases
one little "Pellet" is sufficient for a
dose; that they are purely vegetable
and perfectly harmless; and for consti-
patton, biliousness, sick headache and
all diseases arising from arrangement
of the liver, stomach or bowels, they
are absolutely specific, A gentle
laxative or active cathartic, according
to size of dose.

]. r.. King, general secretary Of the
Wilmington y. Nj. G. A., has expressed
the intention of inviting G. Il. Van
Trump to lecture again on 'Elec-
trlcity' before the association. This
young mechanical engineer, by his eN-
detrimental lectures, would be likely
to enthuse our High School boys, and
intelligently direct their minds to FOL
low the development of one of the
greatest and most promising of
sciences. Wherever these lectures are
delivered they ought to be open even
ings to the mechanics and young men
of our city. We hope these teachable
classes will preserve the lecture notes
printed to-day with view OF learning
more ON the subject.

tt is almost matter of certainty
that important railroad improvements
will be carried Into effect In the near
future that will have an important
bearing upon the Wilmington and
Northern Railroad. Superintendent
McCalsland was down In Salem, N. j.,
a day or two ago consulting with sew
eral OF the leading citizens of that en-
ing the W. a. N. Railroad from Deep
Water Point to that town, and from
thence to Biidgeton and Millville. The
distance then from Salem to Philadel-
phia will be shorter than by the West
Jersey Railroad, with which it will
compete. The road may also extend
to Gloucester TO connect with the
Reading road into Camden.

ADJUSTMENTS.


There was large audience at the
Academy of Music last evening, to
welcome the popular German dialect
comedian Charles A. Gardner in his
new play, 'srhe Fatheriand." This
drama is|a new and picturesque repre-
sentatio1 Of every day country life In
the Tyrol, and is presented with rich
costumes and pretty stage settings.
The plot Is filled with love and comedy.
MIR. Gardner appears as Herman Leo
pold, q TFrolean guide, a specimen of
robust manhood that is in some reA'
spects Ilew feature to the stage. In
the course of the play he appropriately
sings in d most fascinating manner
such songs as Pretty Bobolink,' Shut
Your Eyes Tightly and Open Your
Mouth 'Chamois Hunter The LII
lacs, etc., and never failedto elicit un--
bounded applause. The second act OF
the play IA made realistic by the use OF
genuine old-fashioned spinning
wheels in the scene representing the
home In II Fhtherland, when the entire
company sings spinning-wheel song.
Tho Alpine and Tyrolene choruses We're
admirablyIrendered by the entire COM
pany, ard during tho Saengerfest
scene in the fourth act, the Tyrolene
Quartette furnished the audience a
grand feast OF unique and pretty mu-
sic. There are twenty one people in
the company, all of whom are capable
of doing gbod work. The play will be
presented again tonight, tomorrow
night, and at the matinee tomorrow
afternoon.
OPERA HOUSE.
Tonight, tomorrow night and to-
morrow afternoon Mrs Marie Hubert
Frohman appears ut the Opera House
as Marguerite, in ,sThe Witch" This
drama, as is well known, is story of
the days when so-called witches were
prosecuted in good old Puritan Salem.
In those days none were safe, for as
soon as meli commenced to look for IA
witch, the witch appeared. As the
popular frenzy increased, rank proved
no protection; persons OF the highest
order were hccused. Wealth afforded NO
safety; 1t was evident that the riches
came from Satan'S Golfers; poverty
was no shield, for the devil was well
known to have no scruples about
cheating one of his servants out OF the
rewards OF her labors. If the accused
were wicked her guilt was undoubted
IL she could look back on a long life
spent In good works, so much thu
worse, she was hypocrlte, and hypoc
risy was more to be dctested than opeI
wickedness.
II she could not repeat the Lords
prayer the devils tied her tongue; il
she remembered every word of tha
petition Belzebub was mocking thi
/ accurers. No be accused was, there
fore, certain prelude to conviction
and execution, and considering th'
fact that sttong denial was regarded
Us proof positive of guilt, and tina
torture was applied to enfore u con
fession, 1t is not remarkable that thn,,
sands confea ased themsei"1 hu,,fy 4
save torture and .nra deaIb bv hsno o
ing .rs...llt.r tNan burning.
Such are the scenes woven into thi
drama, and Mrs. Frohman's presenta
ton OF the leading role is a master
/. piece of art.

RATH WAS LOST.
Not Much Doubt that he Was on the

Not Much Doubt that he Was on the
 III Fated New England Train.
 The New York Herald says: The few bones and the portion of skull which were found Sunday afternoon among the charred woodwork of the burned sleeper Midland, of the Long Island and Boston express train, which was wreck ed on the New York and New England Railroad, at East Thompson, Friday morning, were without doubt those of Edward Rath, the real estate dIaler, of this city, who was a passenger on the ill-fated train.
 A watch and bunch of keys found among the debris were identified yester- day by Henry Rath as having belonged to his brother Ed yard, and by those the identity of the remains was fully estab- lished. A dispatch was received Tn Long Island City yesterday stating that the remains of MT Rath would be brought there during the afternoon, but up to a late hour had not been heard from.
 Form another source iI is learned that owing to the delay in obtaining the at tendance of coroner permit for the removal had not been ob aimed until late in the day. Mrs Rath has been uncon- scious most of the time since she was told of her husbands sad death and it is feared she will lose her reason.
