DR.. Conoyer and Arthur Smith, commits
sloners Of the Agricultural college, called
on State Auditor Reed today for warrant
for expenses incurred in carrying out the

remedied all speculation as to any drawback
In receiving their money, but the state
auditor announced that the governor de-
sired to consult with him, after which he
would talk with the commissioners. Au-
dltor Reed subsequently issued the war
rants.
pr. Conover and Mr.. Smith said that the
college would open on January 13, with ac-
commodatson for about 40 pupils. s.We

Two distinct quakings of the earth
and consequent disturbances of the
sea were felt by the schooner Charles
L. Mitchell on Monday night. three
miles southeast of Cape Henlopen.
The Mitchell arrived at South street
wharf from Cuba with a cargo of
sugar, and Captain Frost told the
story Of his experience. His vessel
was slowly beating her way up the
coast under easy sail. when she fell
in with the tug Mum and was taken
in tow for Philadelphia. The wind
at the time was light from the north
east and the atmosphere hazy, but
clear overhead. Captain Frost had
taken in all but few light sails and
the vessel was heading north. with
both canvas and steam. toward her
port Of destination.
Suddenly two terrific reports, like
explosions were heard. then a rum
bling sound, as if the vessel was
grinding her bottom out on a shoal.
She trembled and spun about on her
keel as if about to be lifted bodily out
of the water by an unseen power. 1t
was first thought she was fast on a
rocky shore, but it was found that
the observations were correct, the
vessel being well off shore and in the
deepest water. Those on the tug
Mum thought that one of the bulk
oil carriers had exploded, but the
rumbling noise and the period of
time through which it extended after
the first explosion proved conclusive
ly that the report was of different
doubtless from earth

He slept soundIy.

A crowd of men were standing on
Clark street, near Taylor, when II
man came along with no shoes, his
feet being incased in white cotton
stockings. Without waiting for any
formal introduction he said in a loud
voice, apparently for the benefit of
ali present. "Gen1'm, i have seen

but when a man goes to sleep OH a
step and they steal a new pair of
eight dollar shoes off his feet. that
rather beats me, and I'm going to get

Here the shoeless man was piled
with a number of questions, but all
he would answer was that he went
to sleep on a step about an hour be-
fore and when he woke up all his
pockets were turned inside out and
his shoes were gone. "At first !

A Possible Help for woman.

Darning stockings, with the at
tendant horrors of mending and sew
ing on buttons, represents a batch of
work which comes regularly every
week to be done, and is a sore trial
to the woman who longs for the time
it takes that she may give 1t to better
things. Yet she knows these tasks
are necessary, and that they must be
accomplished for the comfort and
well being of the family in her
charge.
Now there must surely Ie plenty
Of women who cannot do finished or
high class work, yet to whom mend
ing aud stocking daining, clearing
up of rooms and busting would be
light and agreeable work, women
who, having ample time, would be
willing to do such important yet
trivial housework for the small sum
of money the service is worth They
need not be highly educated or very
young women; they need only be
willing, quick and ready to do well
any and every trife which comes up
for somebody to do. There are GER
tainly plenty of places waiting for
just such workers.
We hear much of the women who
are starving in making shirts at
three cents apiece and trousers at
five cents a pair. The tales are too
well authenticated to be doubted
But surely the work above suggested
would he easier pieasanter and more
profitable to the women who are
keeping soul and body together on
such a pittance as that. -Harper's
