MAN GETTING SMALLER.
A Fseoshman's Theory That Doesn't Ap-
ply Co Some Women.

A FrsashnAn's Theory That Doesn't APP
ply Co Some Women.
There Is o theory evolved by .
French scientist TO the effect that the
human race is diminishing in size and
will finally become microscopic and
vanish into thin air. Ho says that sta
tistics from the days of the giants to the
present time prove that man is getting
smaller and shorter and more diIninu
tive in every way. By an ingenious
calculation he discovers the rate of re-
Suction and tells just how many thou
sand yoarsit will take to make people
% small they will be out of sight
This theory may be true. but thero
arc still some robust specimens Of hu-
manity. says the Kansas City Star.
Last night o haH dozen fair ladies. all
old enough,to vote, from one of tho most
fashionable boarding houses in the city
went scross the street to q grooor's and
got weighed. The lightest ono weighed
one hundred and thirty-one pounds and
che heaviest 0nc hundred and eighty
eight. and the six made an average OF
ono hundred and ffty-seven pounds
scopic and would indicate that thin
air. would have something to carry
when they vanish"
A young dude accompanying the Ia
dies weighed one hundred and twenty
seven pounds, and he had moro of sub
stance TO him than the average dandy.
But his light weight was more than
compensated for by an Old gentleman
sitting in the store who tipped tho
beam at two hundred and fifteen, max
ng tho average for the male portion Of
the crowd over one hundred and seven
~ pounds.

IN snenlinr 81 tha ernntinr Of ~

IN speaking OF the granting Of lS2
lieensss to sell liquor BY theecourt in
Wilmington last week the Repa6fican
says
We are not finding hhlt with the
court Tor its actioE-and liberality in
granting licenses, rather we Commend
it for standing as a check to the food
of licenses that would be almost un-
limited without this check, but if only
the court could bring itself up to the
point of saying and determining that
100 places for the sale of intoxicating
liquors in a city the size of Whining
ton were sufficient, the city would suf-
fer no loss in apecuniaTy sense, though
the State might and society would be
better protected. Philadelphia has a
much smaller record of crime since the
law in Pennsylvania cut the number of
licenses for the sale of liquor down to
about One-fourth the number granted
before the law was passed. The same
benefits would most undoubtedly re-
suit to Wilmington with the same
proper discrimination.
The same paper of the efforts to get
licenses says:
In Philadelphia the activity and will
lingness of policemen to testify in fa-
vOr of saloons of doubtful reputation,
and recommending an increase of
them where not needed, has been
made a cause for their discharge from
the police force. If the same rule
were applied in Wilmington q number
of the present force of policemen will
find themselves without an occupation
after the first of July. Policemen
should be on the side of order instead
of disorder, and their business is to
suppress crime instead of increasing
the power to create crime.

pleased and satisfied. The floral dec.
oratiOns were very pretty. A beauti-
full evergreen arch faced the pulpit.
from which hung suspended bell
composed Of flowers. Lovely pot
flowers also gracefully dotted the
moon. The children them
selves were in their element so To
speak. They knew their special parts
aud their auditors were made aware of
the fact. And the larger children too.
