The nprvy coaster, however, was as

upon reaching the foot OF the ,noun-

About o'clock the coaster appeared
at the Point Hotel with what ap-
peared to be a block OF WOOD aOouC

On one side of the block was a steel
horseshoe. in the curve of which was

fitting close. and the horns OF the
horseshoe were on either side. Then

right hand, and sitting down on the
block started down the mountain
without more ado. He held his feet
crossed straight and before him, and
rested them on the iron rail. For

ONE Of the pleasant things of rural
Delaware is the singing of the ne
groes 1t is characteristic of the col
ored people to delight in running
as the phrase is, which means visit
mg from cabin to cabin late at night,
and no matter at what uncanny hour
business may call forth white man,
he is sure to encounter one or more
groups of negroes tramping the big
road and cheering their journey with
song. Superstitious fear and good
fellowship forbid that any negro
should travel by night alone, and on
moonlight nights all the ways are
vocal with the choruses of these late
travellers. AS heard at distance Of
half a mile on quiet nights, the
music has mysterious charm to put
q spell upon the dullest ear.
