NOXTOUS WEEDS.
A Senate Resolution to Relieve the
Minnesota Farmer.

Noxious weeds are source of great
annoyance and loss to the farmers in
certain sections of the state. Senator
Donnelly introduced resolution yes
terday providing for the appointment of
an officer in each township, whose duty
it shall be to enforce the law against the
spread of weeds. Senator Crandall did
not think there is much use trying any
thing of the kind unless legislation is
had providing to meet the expense. He
recalled tract of 1000 acres that he
would not accept as gift because of
wild mustard. The resolution was re-
ferred to the committee On agriculture.

Senator Donnelly opposed the measure
to the very last. He contended that it
is an unfair ruling to disinherit chill
dren that may be the progeny of life
time because the parents might be uncle
and niece. The bill was lost, and later
the author induced Senator Keller to
move a reconsideration. Senator Don
nelly explained that he was willing
to aceede if the author would be willing
to have the bill referred to its friends
with a view to so amending it that it will
not disinherit innocent children. Sem
ator Smith, however, would make no
concessions. He wanted to force the
measure to a final passage just as it is.
He explained in earnest words that 1t
only refers to such marriages as the
brother with the sister OF the half sister.
Senator McHale suggested that it
were better to make the act a
felony and imprison the contract
ing parties. but the author held
differently. The motion to reconsider
was adopted. and the debate ran at con-
siderable length. Senator Leayitt sus-
pected that there was an ulterier motive
behind the measure. He asked Senator
Smith frankly if it were really aimed at
any certain case in the state, and the
latter Indignantly denied that he knew
of single instance where it could be-
come operative.
Upon the roll being called the bill was
lost by two yotes-only twenty-slX being
recorded in favor, and nineteen against.

morning, Just now he is about as busy .
man as can be found in the CITY,. Inreply
to some questions, he said that both high
schools, the boys and the girls would
be oyercrowded. There will be. plenty
OF room in the primary schools. No help
can be looked for from the direction Of the
new Grammar School, No. q. as il will not
be ready before February. The grammar
schools of the city also do not meet the
demand for public school seatlngs:
The seatings in the primary schools, as
stated, will not be fully occupied This
applies especially to those in the suburbs
of the city. Primary schools Nos. 2, 3, Q,
10, IS, 20 will not Accommodate all who
want to enter them. On the other hand
Nos. 9, 7, s., 10, II, II, IA, 10 will have
vacant seats.
There were $40 pupils attending the
city public schools last year. The annual
| increase is about 600. So Wilmington Will
| probably run over the 10000 mark. The
| public school attendance in this city aver
ages about the same as other cities OF its
size in the Union.
Taking the whole year through the
average Is about 20 per cent of the enroll
ment. This is considered high for an
average attendance. Tuesday was the occa-
sion when theschool committees pay thor
visits. ALI OF the schools are reported well
supplied with material. The books. States

The Board of Education has been quite

In the bicycle races at West Chester last

The one mile open race was good one.
The men came up the stretch in bunch

with G. l.. Lagen second and John A..

fouling him at the lower turn, and there
was stormy scene. Finally the judges set
Vance back to third place, advancing
Lagen and Meade to first and second. The
time was 3.021 Vance had entered his
protest against this and the decision may
Exchanged. He denies fouling Elliott, who,
by the way, West Chester papers say, was
not one OF the men to get place. He
passed Elliott, who did not have the in
side track, and claims that he did il
without interfering With him.
In the second novice race Sam Hopes
spurted away from the field in great shape

NEW CASTLE, Sept. 4.--Beginning
this morning at 1901, the trains on the
Delaware Division have been materially
changed, and especially those which
effect New Castle residents. The morn
ing mail south formerly arriving here
at 500 now does not get here until
$50, d difference of half an hour in the
time of receiving mail. The New Castle
accommodation from Wilmington due
here at 11.37 now arrives at 1925, leav-
ing Wilmington 11,12, or II minutes
earlier. The accommodation from
Wilmington due here at 1853 is taken
off, and there is no train south
between 3.04 and 4.44. Perhaps
the most important change to many
is that made in the time of train
leaving Wilmington for New Castle
at 6.44 p. m. This train is used
by those employed in Wilmington and
when leaving at GA just gave them
time enough to maks it. Under the new
schedule it leaves five minutes earlier, at
800. Northward there has been few
changes also. The 9.34 express fol

Special ocrrespondenceof Gazette and Journal
DOVER, Sept. 5.--The report published
exclusively in The GAZETTE recently
concerning the wanderings of DR.. Thomas
B. Bradford of Wilmington, in Jones'
Neck and the marshes of this county, has
proven to be correct in every detail. Moth
ing more has been sean or heard of the
missing man since he boarded the steamer
Mary q. Citizens at Barker's Landing tor
Bowers Beach.
A detective has been in this section for
the last few days in hopes of finding DR..
Bradford, or at least TO get some clue that
would lead to the discovery of his where
abouts. The detective visited Farmer
Slaughter, where Bradford stopped three
nights, and was told the same story that
was published in The GAZETTE.
The detective then produced several
photographs. among them one of DR..
Bradford. He then asked Mr.. Slaughter
if any of them resembled the man who
stopped at his house at the time spoken of.
Without any hesitation the photograph
of the missing man was picked out.
The clues are being worked out, although
| the work seems TO progress slowly.
