AN ELoPEMENT SPOILED.

Cupid's well-iaid Plains Intercepted at "A
Railroad Station in This City--A PlucISy
Miss Who Would Not Tell Her Lovers
Name.
The remarkable shrewdness of pretty
girl of 10 summers caused number of
railroad officials together with several
officers much trouble last Thursday and
her parents experienced great anxiety for
a time. The cause of thetrouble was Miss
Daisy Jones, whose home is at Parksley,
Va. Her parents were fearful that she
had eloped and for d time kilograms fairly
burned the wires along the line of the
Delaware railroad.
The young girl got on the Norfolk ex.
press at Parksley. She had ticket for
Wilmington. Her father learned of her
disappearance from the parental roof aud
he Immediately wired Mayor Hiram Reedy
of Dover to arrest her when the train ar
rived there. Mayor Reedy, on receiving
the dispatch, boarded the train. but his
persuaslons were unsuccessful in inducing
the fair miss TO leave her seat in the parlor
car, where she was travelling first class. So
the mayor continued his journey TO Clay
ton, where he got of. He then wired the
father in Virginia that he could not in
duce the girl to leave the train. The father
sent telegram to Conductor Parker
of the train and Special Officer Smith at
the station in this city, to arrest the girl
when the train reached Wilmington.
Armed with the dispatch the officer
marched boldly into the car when the ex-
press arrived here that evening in company
with Conductor Parker who pointed out
Miss Jones to him.

the young lady on the shoulder, "ls this

the sight of the officer.
II am very sorry but have orders from
your father to accompany you from the

But don't want to get off, And then
the young girl .wept bitterly, and with a
toss of the head reluctantly left the train.
As she was leaving the car she glanced fur
lively around as ii she expected some one
to interfere in her behalf. IL her lover

REPUBLICANS WIN IN JERSEY.


The Decision Of the Supreme Court Com
pletely in Their Favor and They VIII
Now Control the Legislature.
TRENTON, N. j., March 2l.-The STU
preme Court chamber was thronged this
morning to hear the courts decision in
the Senatorial case. Many mem bers of the
Legislature and big array of the leading
politicians of both parties were present.
Not an inkling of the nature of the decis-
ion had leaked out, and the intense silence
that prevailed in the crowded room testi-
fled to the deep interest felt in every word
OF the decision. Chief Justice Beasley read
the opinion, beginning at 1910 O'Clock.
The first point in the controversy,
whether the court had jurisdiction in the
case. was decided in the affirmative.
The contention of Attorney-General
Stockton that the Senate is continuous
body was brushed aside by the court. The
construction put upon the clause in the
Federal constitution which makes Sthe
United States Senate perpetual organiza-
ton did not apply to the clause in the
New Jersey constitution.
The chief justice held further that the
contention that the minority could rule in
a legislative body was antagonistic to the
language and spirit of the constitution and
in violation of the doctrine that the will
of the majority shall be supreme. The
constitution likes time Tor the annual
meeting Of the Legislature. This would
be a superiiuous provision if the Senate
were an everything body.
The chief Justice next brushed aside the
contention that the 1hold-over Senators
held the exclusive and absolute power to
pass upon the credentials of the newly
elected Senators. This was the first time
since the adoption of the constitution that
such claim had been made. 1t was novel,
but groundless. The court, in conclusion,
held that the title of Robert Adrain as
president of the Democratic Senate was in
valid, and that the title of Maurice A.
Rogers, president of the Republican Senate,
must be regarded as constitutional and
valid. The organization Of the Republican
Senate was upheld.
REPUBLICAN VICTORY.
The decision is a complete Republican
victory, the court siding with the counsel
of that party. on every point of the case,
except on the matter of Jurisdiction. The
Republicans are now jubilant and the
Democrats correspondingly crestfallen.
THE FATE OF WAR.
The latter gave up long ago the hope
that the Democratic Senate would be sus
tanned by the court, but they were conf
IDENTIFY expecting that the decision would
| declare that both Senates were unconstitu
| tional. The least crushed, seemingly, oil
all the Democratic politicians was Bob
Adrain. He simply smiled and said at;
the fate of war;"

THE EXPLOSION AT SANTANOER.
Caused by tho Dynamite Remaining in the
SunleD Stenmrr--Grent Excitement In

Caused by tho Dynamite Remaining in the
SunheD Stenmrr--Grcnt Excitement In
the City.
SANTANpER, March 22.--The greatest ex-
element prevails throughout the city OF
Santander to-day, and only the presence Of
strong force Of troops patroling the
streets and stationed at every convenient
shed.
As cabled to the Associated Press last
night, Santander has been the scene of
another terrible dynamite explosion. and
tile local authorities again seem to be to
blame for the loss of life which followed.
The explosion Of last night was the re-
suit of apparent carelessness in removing
what remained Of the cargo of dynamite
in the submerged hulk of the Spanish
steamer Cabo .Machichaco. which blew up
November Sd last, while alongside a wharf
here which had taken fire. BY the first eS-
plosion about 100 small vessels were sunk
in the harbor and q merchant steamer, the
Alfonso Mi; which was attempting to as
sist the Cabo Machichaco, took fire and 40
of her crew lost their lives. In addition
about 600 people were killed or wounded
by the explosion of the dynamite.
In spite of the force of the explosion of
November last, all the dynamite on board
the sunken steamer, IL was ascertained
from the reports of divers sent to examine
the wreck, had not been exploded and as
the remains of the steamers and its dan
gcrous cargo were considered menace to
navigation, the authorities have employed
force of men to remove it. The divers
and their assistants were at work at 0
O'Clock last night, by the aid of electric
lights, when in some manner unknown
quantity Of the dynamite exploded and
the two principal divers and three work
men who were managing the air chambers
were killed, and seven men who were as
sisting in the work ashore were danger
ously injured.

WINDOW BROKEN, GOODSSTOLEN

One OF the Boldest Robberies. on Record-
The Big Window on Market street.
Broken and the Goods Neatly Alb
stracted-- And This With Three Special
Watchmcn and the Usual Police In the
Vicinity.
A bold robbery was committed at the
Gem" jewelry store of Samuel j, Schiess,
southwest corner of Fourth and Market
streets, at . o'clock Friday morning, and
iewelry and other valuables to the amount
OF $3.50 extracted from the store. The theft
was committed in open Wow of passersby
and despite the fact that there are three
special watchmen on the beat and the
usual protection from the police force.
The thieves smashed piece of glass out
OF the big bulk window and then extracted
diamonds, rings and other jewelry until
the window was almost entirely stripped of
its contents. Tho window is in the Market
street front, and the fracture was made in
the side plate, facing Fourth street. For
tunately the large stock of diamonds and
gold watches are carefully put away in the
safe every night by the proprietor Of the
store and consequently this property was
saved.
Stute Detectives McVey and Witsi have
been furnished with complete list of
the stolen articles, which is us follows :
Two small diamond solltaireS, small dia-
mond earrings, pair of pearl opera
glasses, sterling silver match safe carDun-
Gle gold ring, two dozen plain illed rings
eighteen pairs of plated cuff buttons hair
pin, three dozen hat pins; haf-dozen gold
lockcts, gold stud, pair gOld.plated brace
lets, eight gold scarf pins aud two plush
watch eases.
The detectives are hard at work upon
the case and with Il complete description
of the jewelry and meagre description
Of tile parties guilty Of the dcpredations
will do all in their power to run the cul-
prits down. A list of the stolen articles
has also beer left ut the police station.
Mr.. Schless stated, ON Friday, that a
woman operator in the Telephone Ex-
change, at Fourth and Market streets, had
observed three men at work oil the win
dow and had telephoned To the polio sta
ton. If woman could see the burglars
working on the window from her position
III the top of four-story building across
tho street, IL becomes an interesting ques-
ton where were the special watchmen all
the time the robbery was being com
| mitted? THERE'S every evidence that the
men were working at the window from Ii
to 20 minutes, as considerable cutting was
done on the window frame before the
! glass was broken,

4 STUDIO ON WHEELS.
The Ingenious Device of Artist Hammitt
for Winter ON. nf-tnor Painting.


Something that is quiet new and that
can be best described as studio on wheels
is being constructed for Clawson 5. Ham
mitt, the artist, at the carriage manufac-
tory OF J. II. Hammitt, Walnut street, be-
tween Sixth and Seventh. 1t is large
wagon with something Of resemblance
to an ambulance wagon. The idea of the
artist is to use it for landscape painting in
winter and during wet weather. The in
tention is to travel all around the neigh
boring hundreds, or farther, if necessary
The interior contrivances show great
ingenuity The sides can be transformed
almost altogether into what are equivalent
to glass walls SO that the artist can paint
with all advantage. There are contrlvances
for heating the wagon and numerous in
genious ways of placing easels and other
of the impediments ihseparable to the
artists work.
The wagon is painted in dark olive
green and its lower part in dark maroon
and gold. The gearing has the front
wheels low so that in narrow lane the
wagon can turn in its own length. Mr..
Hammitt expects to make his first trip in
a week or so.
