killing Deer WITH Nnnklns.

A lumberman was neophyte, as it were,
in the art Of deer Staying, knowing which
he armed himself with a Winchester rife
and took an armed Indian along for luck.
The first days bushwhacking beat up no
deer, and our lumber hero with his faith
ful guide bivouacked beneath the silent
stars. Early the next morning, upon open
ing his eyes, he beheld two deer standing
on a knoll not far away gazing curiously
upon the camp.
Snatching up his trusty repeating rife
and quivering with a suppressed case Of
malignant buck fever. he was about to open
fusilade upon the game when the naughty
Indian struck up his flrelock with;
"Uml Waughl No shoot uml You no

Taking off a red napkin with which he
was begrt this son Of the forest began cir
cling it about. The deer caught on. Their
eyes followed the gyrations Of the rag.
They approached. They came nearer, still
following the motions of the clout. As cir
cled the rag, so circled their eyes, then
their heads, then their bodies, till with
one mighty sweep of the napkin these an
tlered kings Of the forest turned somer-
sault and fell dead mt the hunters feet.
Their necks were broken. They had been
stalked. Our hero had saved his powder,
his reputation and his meat.-Michigan

On various pleas DR.. Funk defends his

its denunciations Of him for piracy"

10 IS often the case that the character

MoNeYwANTED FoR olTY SCHOOLS
The Legislature VIII De Asked to Grant
New ApportionInent.

a. 4fNW AIHNAAAuNAnNhAr
The Committee on Legislation of the
Board OF Public Education submitted the
following report to that body at It's meet
ing last evening
First That the present apporiion-
ment appropriated under the laws of the
State Of Delaware for educational pur.
poses, discrminates unfairly and un-
justly against the people of New Castle
county, and especially against the citi-
zens of this city.
Second. That a fixed appropriation
Of 500 600 per 8nnum, for school pur
poses is and has been for several years
past inadequate for the present necessi-
ties Of this city
"Third That 10 is inexpedient and un-
wise to levy taxes of any kind upon the
public buildings held by this board and
dedicated TO school purposes. In the
Judgment of this committee they should
be put on the same basis as other muni
cipa buildings
"We therefore recommend that the
Legislative Committee of this body be
instructed to present the above griev-
ances to the attention of the Legislature
of the state at Dover during their
present session; and to pray for such
legislation touching the above matter as
shall secure TO the Inhabitants of this
city such equitable participation i'm the
funds collected from licenses of business
houses i'm this city as shall be just and
agreeable TO good conscience
"And also pray for such increase in
the amount appropriated for building
school houses as the necessities of the
city demands. And further TO pray that
the public school buildings now or here
after to be acquired by this board shall
be exempted from taxation Of any kind,
whether state, city, county, poor water
or sewers
The report was adopted after having
been amended, to authorize the com.
mittee TO seek legal advice.
The committee of conference to confer
with "a joint committee appointed by a
meeting. and by City Council to consider
the subject Of a free library. reported
favorably upon a plan which provides
that the Wilmington Institute make
such a distribution of the stock of that
corporation and its real estate and books
as will make its library free. and that
the legislature of the state provide for
the raising Of revenues for it's support.

To the Editor of the Evening Journal.
SlH / think it is very strange that the
General Assembly has not passed the
appropriation TO pay the state constGbles
appointed by the governor of the state.
Most of the men are poor aud in many
cases work outside, and, as the weather
has been very bad for nearly three
months many Of them have not made
more than three or four days pay a week
and, with@mouey due them from the
state they could have bought a ton Of
coal aud barrel Of four The men did
their duty and in my humble opinion not
only saved this county but this state.
for had it not been for these
men Mahafiy and his man Friday would
have had the post Office buildings full of
inspectors of election. His plans were
we'll laid and / believe he would have re-
peated the infamy that he put In practice
on the hrst day of registration, only on a
larger scale, and had that taken place.
instead Of our carrying this county we
would have lost it by several hundred

10 Not ignore sanitation.

To the Editor Of the Evening Journal.
SIR. A bill to prevent the city Of
Wilmington from getting a sanitary
sewage system or to increase taxation.
This will be the result, II an Act which
has been presented to council aud
referred to the law committee becomes
law 10 Is IN the shape of amendment
to Chapter 200 Vol 19 of the laws Of
Delaware which practically wipes out
the sewer lien law, which was ssed
two years ago In defence Of this law
can say 10 was approved after the most
careful examination into the sewer laws
in force in a number Of the most
efficiently severed cities Ina this country,
and adopted as the most equitable law
that could be prepared and ! am sure
that nine tenths of the peopleiappr0ve it
and are entirely satisfied with &c. In
fact the Street and Sewer Department
has been unable to supply the demand
for sewer extensions. Builders do not
care TO build houses whore they cannot
get drainage The sewers neces.
sary to be built this year
amount to $4,000 Now how is
this is done. increase the tax to 81 SOP
| say no; let the law remain as 10 is. and
those who get the benefit pay for it.
There is nothing in the way Of taxation
that we get that IS as cheap as sewers
and nothing that the people should feel
more interested in than good sanitary
drainage 1t concerns the health of the
city, which must be protected at what
ever cost, or the growth of the city be
retarded. Il is said that we are to have
cholera here thi year hope not but how
is it TO be prevented If not by the
most rigid enforcement of our sanitary
laws2 This expense must increase with
the population. How mnch better would
Is have been 60 have spent this money
for sewerage purposes and thereby added
three times as much to the value OF
property drained, and improved the
health of the city also. Gentlemen Of
the City Council inform yourselves
about these important matters
and DO not do anything that
viii mar the industrial progress Of our
City or interfere with the completion of
the most equitable and just sewer law
ever enacted If thoroughly understood
the repeal Of the law should not and 1
