At the close of the first week she hati a
talk with him.
'You don't believe in the society,"" she
said tentatively.

'No you won't, my dear" he said EN-

Why IT Was Rejected,

The farm editor received the following
story and sent it to the curio column col
lector, who returned it because he knew it
stated facts and net fiction: A horticul-
turist had missed many apples every night.
Finally he set watch. expecting to trap
his neighbor's boys. In the dim night
light he saw limbs of apple trees shaking,
and then he heard the fruit falling. He
had seen no one enter the orchard. Non
plused, he crept up close to the shaking
tree. He saw a hedgehog descend from
the tree, roll over on the apples until its
back was laden with the fruit, attached by
the quills, and wabble off. The farm editor
didn't doubt the story, but wondered what
an insect eating animal wanted with APP
Piles.

The wants Of a rapidly growing COM
munity, already aggregating 100000
souls, with percentage of crime and
drunkenness in proportion.
FINANCIAL VIEW OF JAIL QUESTION.
/ Another view of the jail question
is one affecting the finances. The
execution of the act of General Assem-
bly, passed March 26. 1891, known as
the Ball Tramp Law, entails upon this
county an expense of more than 5000
annually in providing stone and in re-
moving and disposing of what has been
broken. This expense of the Ball
Tramp Law is additional to the ex-
pense of commitment, board, etc., the
boarding of the prisoners alone costing
$12, 900 per year.
Including all charges, The annual
cost to the taxpayers of maintaining
the Jail foots up $25, 1t is the
opinion of this committee that the
prisoners in the Jail should at least
earn their own subsistence.
WASHINGTON STREET BRIDGE.
"Af er fixing the tax rate and MAX
ing ap ropriaiions for the current year
the Levy Court decided to construct 4
bridge over the Brandywine at Wash
ingten street, and through its duly
costituted committee entered into a
contract for the work at cost OF
SS5, 900 to be completed May 26, 1893.
On account of This contract there has
been paid the sum of SIS, 900.
1.-The North Side Improvement Com
pany has subscribed 1900 toward the
cost of obstruction. The Water Com
mission will contribute $4,000 and
the Wilmington Coal Gas Company
$1,000, making a total of SIS, 800 in
subscriptions and contributions. These
will reduce the amount to be provided
through the Levy Court to $51, 800.
ELECTION EXPENSES.
"An appropriation of $4,000 was
made for the expenses of the general
elec ion. and this appropriation is
practically exhausted. The expense of
special constables was hot included in
the estimates, therefore, that expense,
amounting to SIS, ,805, must be referred
to the incoming Levy Court for suit
able action in the premises.

ISAAC N. CRUDE,

The report was accepted and ordered
spread upon the minutes, and Mr..
Jolls received authority to Fave it
printed for distribution in the county.

The Detroit Tribune tells of a Sunday
school teacher in that city who delivered
an earnest little address to her boys the
other day on Gods all seeing eye. "You
must always remember" she said, that
the very hairs of your head arc numbered. :"
Whereupon one of the urchins, jerking a
hair out of his little blond head and hold
ing it up to her, asked, "WhGt number is
that?" 1t is such questions as these that
are calculated to upset the theology of the
most orthodox teacher!

They Pitied Him.

Dimling was stopped by two footpads
the other night.
One of them covered him with revolv-
er, and the other said:
"Turn over all your cash, and be quick
about il"
"My dear fellows" said Dimling in re-
sponse to their urgent invitation, 81 have
no cash to turn over. have just left a
church fair.'
The footpads first satisfied themselves of
the truth of tie unfortunate mans story,
and then raised Sl.25 between them for his
relief, regardless of the fact that business
had not been good with them for some
time.-Harper's Bazaar.

ESCAPED TAXATION.

THE receiver of lakes and county
treasurer has stated TO this committee
tnat property in the city of Whining
ion aggregting more than 50, 900. 900 Of
assessable valuation has escaped taxa
tion. This, at the present rate OF
taxation, means yearly loss of $10,-
COO in revenues to the county. And,
Gel tainly, a method of assessment can
be provided that will prevent such
omissions in the future. 1t has been
suggested that an annual assessment be
made of the city of Wilmington. The
city is growing so rapidly aud property
SO frequently that 1t is important that
something be done to correct the errors
and omissions noticed.
THE MUNICIPAL SYSTEM FAVORED.
"Wilmington's municipal system of
assessment and collection commends
itself to this committee, for in that
system the minimum of error is
reached and all taxable property is
brought under the levy.
INCREASED JAIL FACILITIES NEEDED,
'This committee would fail in its
duty did it not call attention to the
matter of additional Jail facilities.
The Jail at New Castle has had for the
past two years, within its forty cells,
an average of 10 prisoners per day.
and at times this number has been in
creased to over 200. Such popula-
tion within the narrow confines of
those walls is a reproach and is often
sive to the instincts of decency and
humanity. That a contagious disease
has not developed is because of the
extreme care and watchfulness of
those in charge. Many improvements
have been made, and when the Levy
Court visited the Jail on December 16
last it was noticed and remarked that
the atmos pheIe was purer and health
ier than it was on former visit.
Still, with all that can be said in com
incubation of the management, there is
urgent need Of action by the people Of
this county of so increasing and en-
larging the facilities as to afford a re-
lief from the OvercrOwded condition.
The Levy Court has informally couclud-
ed that TO enlarge the present Jail
building is not TO be considered, but
that the remedy lies in the construc-
tion of another building adequate to
