Patent medicines differ-One has reason
ableness, another has not. One has reputa-
tion-another has not. One has confidence
born of success-another has only "hopes."
Don't take it for granted that all patent
medicines are alike. They are not. Let
the years of uninterrupted success and the
tens of thousands of cared and happy men
and women, place Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery and DIR. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription on the side of the comparison
to which they belong. And there isn't a
state or territory, no-nor hardly country
in the world, whether its people realize it
or not, but have men and women in them
Ihat're happier because of their discovery
and their effects.
Think of this in health. Think of it in
sickness Aud then think whether you
can afford to make the trial if the makers
can afford to take the risk to give your
money back, as they do if they do not
benefit or cure you.

SWEPT BY FIRE.

The Town of DeImar Almost annthiIated.
Eighty-seven Buildings Destroyed.
Loss Aggregates 100000.
A disastrous fire swept the town Of
Delmar situated 81 miles from Whining
ton on the Maryland line on
Tuesday destroying sixty buildings the
aggregate loss being fully 100000 OF
which there is an insurance not exceed
ing $50, 900. The town numbers 1000
inhabitants, and is the terminus of the
New York, Philadelphia and Norfolk
Railroad from the South, and the Phila-
delph1a. Wilmington and Baltimore
Railroad from the North.
The greater number of the burned
building were constructed of frame, and
helped by scarcity OF water and famed
by strong wind the fire devastated the
territory of thirteen acres of ground
before gotten under control.
The conf1agration occurred at midday
and the heat was intolerable, many
persons being overcome. The flames
spread rapidly and the residents saw that
the town was doomed. Everybody was
for self-protection, and persons who were
fortunate enough to have friends and
wagons, contlived to get some of their
household goods out, but many of these
were afterward burned by sparks being
blown into them.
The entire place was SO thoroughly
burned out, that there is not store Of
any character lett standing, and nothing
to sell in the town except what pre-
visions the people may have who escaped
the flames. Temporary structures have
been erected in which number of bust
nesses are being conducted. Many
families have 2oue to Salisbury, Laurel,
Seaford and other towns. Those remain
ing are among friends. and quartered in
temporary structures. Steps will be
taken to rebuild the town at once.

Attractions at the ElktOn Fair.

Although in past years the amuse-
rents afforded the crowd Of spectators
has been excellent, yet the attraction
offered this year will exceed those
of any previous year. On each
morning of the four days of the fair, the
Wachita Jack Wild West Combination,
will give its celebrated exhibition. This
will consist of a grand parade followed
by difficult lassoing by Cow Boys, exhi-
billions of expert Indian riding, race
between Indian, Cow Boy and Mexican,
realistic representation of an Indian
attack on the overland mail coach, and a
representation of Buffolo Bills speciality,
an Indian attack on settlers cabin.
all these exhibitions will be given on the
race track, and be witnessed from the
grand stand. They will be on scale
never offered here before, and in char
acter and extent exceed any previous
exhibitions, being both amusing and
instructive. In addition to the above
exhibitions which are in themselves
worth the price of admission charged to
| the grounds, on each afternoon Prof. c..
II. Jackson and Mrs. jackson, the cele,
| brated champion Roman bare back
riders will give exhibitions of their skill
in horsemanship, between the regular
races for the day. Prof. Jackson will
ride against Mrs. jackson in all races,
and each race will be run at the horses
| utmost speed, making it exciting and
| interesting to the spectators. Mrs
Jackson rides against the Prof. hall
| mile heats two in three, without the
use of the saddle. and uses her favorite
| horse the famous Belle Plannet one o
the fastest horses in the United, States.
She is acknowledged to be the most
| daring reinswoman living, and the mos;
graceful. The secretary of the Wis
consin State fair says of her that, not
withstanding they had given twenty on,
annual fairs, the largest crowd eve
attracted to their grounds, came to wit
ness her riding and driving. At Ham
burg New York, the Jackson Combin
alton showed to 20 thousand people
and the secretary of that fair says the
gave great satisfaction and prove
a drawing card for their society. Prof
Jackson offers forfeit of $4,000 to an
horsewoman in the country, not except
ing Miss Myrtle Peak, who can surpas
Mrs. jackson in daring feats of horse
manship.
THESE special attractions cost GU
Ellston society over $1,000, and the
character may be inferred from th
amount of money required to secur
hem. -

trouble in Wilmington, or that he had
any jewelry with him. The coat report

Athletics.

The Newark base ball team failed to
materialize on Saturday afternoon last,
and accordingly the final game in the
Newark Elkton series remains unplayed.
For the second time this season, this
non appearance has occurred on the part
of the Newark club, the notice of their
inability to come being received at the
eleventh hour. AS it was, Saturday s
game was widely advertised through the
medium of Eikton papers and also by
posters literally distributed throughout
the town. To say nothing of the
expense, the erroneous information given
the public is disadvantageous to the
home club and on which management
the censure is inconsistently laid. 1t is
to be hoped that all future arrangements
will be definite and final.
