By the lakeside, Hiawatha,
He the prophet of the people,
Sat alone and meditated.
"Must our lives depend on fishes2"
Said he to himself lamenting.
eff my people live on sturgeon,
If they eat but pike and herring,
May be they will die o. Dig-head.
To avert so great an evil
They must use better diet.
I will tell them of the wholesome,
Flaky essence of the maize-plant.
They shall buy the food unequaled,
Cerealine, the all-sufhcing.
This alone upbuilds the body,
This must be our chief dependence.
I will say to all the women,
Use it in all breadstuff always,
Mix it with all kinds of pastry,
Make it into cakes and puddings.
For the old men and the warriors,
For the maidens and the children.
Cerealine is natures blessing,
Better far than fowls or fishes"

Last Saturday, Mr.. William Chance,
Of Dividing Creek, was on his way to a
wood sale short distance from his

along, the man hit his horse a tap
with the whip, which made it spring,
at the same time the wagon fell into a
rut ard the seat broke, letting Mr..
Chance fall beneath the wagon. The
hind wheel passed ever him, or he
struck the wheel, breaking two or
his ribs and injuring one of his hands.

Delightful Country.

Harry Osborne who recently went
to Colorado Springs, Col, the place
where D. B. Mayhem and family will
soon go, writes an interesting letter of
the country. He says he had most
delightful trip, and is now nicely sita-
ated. He is working at his trade, paper
hanging, receiving thirty-five cents an.
hour. Rents are high, three roomed;
houses hiring for $40 and $14, per
month. Sweet potatoes are five cents
per pound, and white potatoes rs cents
per hundred. Butter, eggs and poultry
are about the same as in this locality.
Dry goods are little higher and cloth
ing and shoes are considerably more.
Hard coal is 80 per ton, and soft coal
$3.50. The latter is pretty generally
used. Beefsteak can be bought at 12tt
and the best for 16 cents per pound.
The climate, he writes, is wonderful.
At this time the people sit in the
houses with the windows open, and
look up at Pixies Peak, where there is
six feet of snow. The city is supplied
with water from this great mountain
and it is cold as ice. The air is very
dry. If a person wishes to do washing
In the afternoon, the clothing can be
left out all night and will dry splen-
didly. He and his family are delighted
with the place.

Looking for q Lost Son.

Charles J. Alexander and Albert
Rasp, boys, of South Camden, early in
May last left their homes, and up to
Thursday of last week nothing had
been learned of their whereabouts,
when suddenly Rasp made his appear
ance at his home, but gave no tidings
of Alexander. Mrs. Alexander, the
mother of Charles, consulted Mayor
Pratt on Saturday in connection of her
missing son, and the Mayor ordered
young Rasp brought before him. H
informed the Mayor that he left Alex
ander in New York City. After inter-
rogating him sharply it was found that
he was telling conflicting stories, and
Mayor Pratt advised the mother to
send photograph of her missing son
to Inspector Byrnes, OF New York, with
the hope of discovering his where
abouts if he is in that city.

keep Mcdonald in submission. q
young man By the name of George
Riley, slipped up behind the officer
and gave him blow with his fist on
the head. The officer had his hands
full and could pay little attention to
Riley, and he went up TO the lookup
with Mcdonald. Riley followed on
cursing at a lively rate and when Nc
Donald was safe behind the bars, Riley
was arrested and showed In O. cell,
Monday morning Riley was given a
hearing, the charge being the serious
one of assaulting an officer. He plead
guilty and the Mayor placed him un.
der $500 bail, and being unable to fur.

Judge Depue Will Decide IN q
Few Days ON the Application.

- ~~.O &>kSk~AAOs~VAOAe
NEWARK, N. j., Nov. S.-Argument
was had before Judge Depue yester-
day in the matter of the petition Of
Herman Lehlbach, Republican candi-
date for Mayor in the late charter
election, asking for new election, on
the grounds of malconduct, fraud
and corruption on the parts of several
boards of election, the reception Of
Illegal votes, the rejection of legal
votes, errors in the returns and
other causes. Mr.. Lehlbach's lawyers
asked that day be set for a trial
Of the contest, and objection was
made by ex-Judge Stevens, who repre-
sented the Democrats. Judge Stevens
moved to have the petition dismissed
on the ground that no facts were
stated in the allegations. Judge De-
pue said he would decide in two or
three days what he would do in the
case.
Another petition for recount in the
Thirteenth ward on alderman was
presented to Judge Depue. It set
forth that voters were illegally rejected
because they were endorsed with the
wrong polling district number. Judge
Depue granted an order fixing next
Wednesday for hearing in the case,
which involves the control by the
Democrats of the Common Council, in
which body there Is now a tie.

Found Alive in q Barrel.

John Wilsey, the jersey trucker who
was supposed to haYe been drowned
off Chester during the heavy storm of
Thursday night, has been found. Early
Friday morning a boat was sighted by
Peter Carey on Chester Island. On in
vestigation it proved to be CAPTAIN
Wilsey's. The. boat was swamped,
sails gone and boom broken. Search
parties were instituted, but no trace of
the missing man could be found. He
was given up as lost. On Saturday
james Pierce went to bring Wilsey's
boat ashore. and in doing so he moved
barrel which was sunk in the mud,
and to his surprise he saw the owner
of the boat, who had been lying there
In the mud and water for some forty
hours. Life was still found in him.
After working for several hours he
was restored to consciousness and
taken to his home, at Floodgates, N.
j., where he related his experience.
After leaving Chester he encountered
the storm, and was driven with the
wind and the boat upset. He swan
around in the water until he felt
ground. The boat was driven to him
few minutes later. Most perished
with cold, he took the sails off the boat
and wrapped them about himself and
crawled into the barrel where he was
found. Register.

Still In 1t.

j. L. VanSyckel, who was defeated
Tuesday at the polls, as candidate
for the Assembly, takes his defeat
philosophically. He says there is no
use worrying over the matter, and ap-
pears unusually cheerful for a man in
his position. On Wednesday Mr.. Van
Syckel went to Trenton and had an in
terview with the leaders of his party.
He said they were apparently more
disappointed at his defeat, than he
was himself. He told them not to
mourn for the world had no use for
mourners. Mr.. VanSyckle while not
elected says he ''is still in it," and
that has a good deal of significance.

Orously pushed in the next Congress.
Secretary Noble and Commissioner
Raum are understood to be opposed to
1t, though one would natural suppose ,
in view of the trouble he has had with
1t, that Secretary Noble would be only
too glad to get rid of it but, come to
think of it, politicians never willingly
relinquish patronage of any kind, and
there's lot Ofvery fat patronage under
the Pension Office.
The Post Office Department is now
being completely re-Organized, and in
the new assignm 1t of duties it is ex-
pected that Maj. RathbOne, who has
just been promoted from Chief Inspec-
tor to Fourth Assistant postmaster
General, a newly created office, will
be given control of the fourth-class

title of "Oficial headsman," which has

Mr.. Harrison added his mite toward
the building up of a military aristoc-
racy by appointing four from we'll
known military families and one from
naval family, and yet it is the civil
ians who pay the taxes that 20 TO
maintain West Point. Is it any won

their uppishness is as nothiss COM

Chance for Delawareans

The scarcity of lieutenants in the
Uuited States Army seems likely to
benefit young men from from Della
ware as we'll as from the other states.
1t is fact not generally known that
West Point Military Academy is not
turning out graduates in sufficient
number to fill all the vacancies existing
in the United States Army, Some of
these vacancies. therefore. have 70 be
filled by civilians, and it has been de-
termined by the War Department to
fill these vacancies with young men
from colleges where military tactics
are taught. Delaware College will,
therefore, be one of the colleges bene-
fited by this decision of the War De-
partment, and some young men who
are graduates of that college, will have
a chance of appointment.
1t is expected in military circles in
this state that John p. Armstrong, a
graduate of Delaware College, and re-
Gently appointed inspector of rife
practice on Governor Reynolds staff,
will shortly be appointed and commits.
stoned as lieutenant in the United
States Army. This will no doubt be
an impetus to other students of Della
ware College to perfect themselves in
army tactics while at College.

the merchant, handing the thief's ac-
count that Quill had prepared, to the
astOnished husband.
'This seems to be a most extra Judi
cial proceeding, sir, began the hus-
band. What are all these items
here ?"
"YOur lady possibly can explain
them. l can't"
"But what-how-when," muttered
the man cOnfusedly.
Il can't answer that, sir" continued
my client, noticing the disappearance
of the lady from the unpleasant scene.
"All l know is that these articles have
mysteriOusly disappeared from time to
time, from my counters, and have
found the thief who stole the $40 lace
collar, and who who was seen to take
it by myself and another from my
store. This party must pay my bill
here, or l shall Immediately take legal
measures to collect all I can of this
amount"
but this bill amounts to 5000 sir"
"Does it? 1 didn't notice the sum
total precisely" said the merchant in
differently, looking it over.
"YOu don't want me to pay-that is .
you don't expect me to pay for other
people's"-
"Do you know these other people of
whom you speak"
mo, but"-neither do 1. I do not
know one of these offenders. Will YOU
give your check for this bill? 1t is
your misfortune to have such a wife,
but l cannot suffer for it."
"You don't pretend that one person
took all these goods, do you?"
II pretend nothing. l have only
endeavOred to state the matter as
clearly and politely as the circum stan
ces of the case would warrant. You
do not care to have any publicity given
to the affair and l am quite willing to
avoid it, assure you. Now sir, will
you accommodate me with your check
l will receipt the bill," continued nv
client, rising.
"HOw much did you ay?"
1.-TWO hundred dollars"
The man went to his desk, wrote
hurriedly for a moment, and then
said
"Here it is. Let this be the last of
it,"
"With all my heart" replied my
client. "Good-day sir" The mer-
chant returned to his store within the
hour.

Quill, ," he asked.

Handing him the check, he said
pleasantly
"Here Quill, take this and balance
the thief's account. Is the amount

Exactly sir-tO dollar"
"All right. We shall not be troub-
led any more with one of our old GUS
toners, think"
The fictitious account in the ledger
was forthwith closed to the satisfaction
of the merchant, who gave me the
above facts afterward, but without
mentioning the name of the unfortu-
nate XII eptO-maniac.
