considerable attention in spite Of its lack
of foundation in truth.
The World asserted that Mr.. Gladstone

The World added that if Mr.. Gladstone's
health and sight allow it, he will shortly

There would have been no sense in
the Democratic Committee joining Gen.
eral Wilson in his pow-wow with Mr.
Fulton's friends. The Democratic com.
mittcn had already twice met the Re.
publican committee in conference. The
subject Of preventing the corrupt use
of money was up for discussion on both
occasions, and SO were number of
other questions. General Wilson is an
expert pow.wowcr and the conferences
were indeed pleasant, but utterly fruit
less. The Republicans did not even
come down to dots and agree to the
Democratic proposition about deputy
sheriffs. The Democrats would be only
too glad TO see vote buying stopped. If
Mr. Fulton will kindly stop it, he will
earn bronze statue on the Dover
Green. But If he wants to win that
honor he must not he taken in BY Gen.
eral Wilson's grace aud gcniality as a
pow-wowcr.

1t is likely, though, that hundreds Of
decent Republicans in this city will not
be willing to vote for Addicks man; for
they can not blind themselves to the dis.
grace it would be to elect an avowcd

cross OF the name of Robert J. Handy

opposite Harry Days name, will have
the satisfaction of knowing that they
have voted for an intelligent and up

trious and faithful in the performance

trusted to protect the interests of dear

a DESERVED RECOGNITION.
baltimore sun, Wednesday.

Mr.. Bayard, who has shed lustre on
Delaware as United States Senator, as
Secretary of State and as Ambassador
to England, was warmly greeted on his
return to his home, in Wilmington, last
evening. Mr.. Bayard has the distinction
of being the first of the American dip!o.
matisls to be raise to the ambussadoriul
dignity. 1t was deserved recognition
of Il statesman. In all his public career
Mr.. Baynrd has been lovai to the true
principles Of American Democracy. He
has been in the largest sense !. reDresen.
tative of his Country-at home and
abroad. 1t is considered that the ovation
given him in Delaware last night is pre-.
liminary to the demand which his 'fel-
low.citizens will make upon lin 10
represent them once more in the senate
of United States, where his broad states.
manship is needed by his country, as
well as by his party, far more than il is

MIR. j. Alexander Fulton has been
placed in a most awkward position by
the financial transactions between Par
son Bach and "Dear Mr.. Foster" 1t
will take him most of his spare time for
the next month in explaining il away.
We think that the money to meet the
expenses incident to the organization of
the Peoples party" in Delaware came
from the Republican corruption funds.
We think it came through Parson Bach
and Dear Mr.. Foster" We think that
Mr.. Fulton and the other Irresponsible
leaders" of the Peoples party agree
with us and that they showed that agree.
ment when they applied the boot to
Dear Mr.. Foster" and told him
to get out. These being the facts of
the case, we do not think it
was untrue to say that "the
Peoples party was created by the use of
Republican corruption money" and we
are sure that it is far from our intention
to say anything "slandcrous of
honorable and pure" men like Mr..
Fulton. The Peoples party in this
campaign in this State looks to us like
Republican side show, and we are not
hesitating to say SO. We will say so, if
possible, without hurting Mr.. Fulton's
sensibillties; but we will say SO even at
the risk of offending so honorable and
pure" a man. Mr.. Fulton has no bust
ness in Republican side show. lie
ought to know better than that We
advise him--and make no charge for
professional services, although the
advice is as good as he can buy any
where-to come back to the true
Peoples party, the grand old Democracy
of Delaware.

the following public:

Solicitor Bellinger an injustice. When
I learned of the United States deputy

Gus manner that he did, I asked the
Attt11t1 General to notify the solicitor
that I W. u!d expect him to prosecute
tb. case with vigor against both Fur
man and the sheriff. Later on [ sent
Mr.. Belliuger verbal message urging
action and On Saturday last wired to
know what he had done. He replied,
II have been to busy; will write" Up
to last night | had Dot received any
communication and could but feel that
he had acted in a disrespectful and
strange manner. Hence | said what I
did in the message. I now learn that
the grand jury had been dismissed
When the solicitor got the Attorney
Generals letter, and there was no
chance to prosecute the case at this
court. Mr.. Bellinger was absorbed in
the Brown murder trial and did not
attach the importance to the case that I
did, and neglected to explain. l now
see that has not neglected his duty
or intended any disrespect to me and
| cheerfully make this explanation as
justly bis due.

An Uncertain Game.

Herman, the magician, once met his match,
says the Chicago Post, and thus pleasantly
relates how an innocent-looking young man
cleverly Outwitted him:
we were IN a private room IN a certain
hotel one evening. and there / met some
friends who introduced me to a simple look
ing youth OF the dude persuasion, whose face
vas as vacant IN expression as a pound of
putty This youth had been Dragging OF his
powers as poker player, and had made the
others so tired that they whispered to me,
asking me to take the cOneeit out OF him for
the fun there would be in IT,. 1 was ready. so
we sat down. Wen, when we began the game

HIM interested and the better to enjoy the
circus. the others dropped out. ana my vic
tim and | had the table TO ourselves. OF
course. was TO give him back whatever l
won from him IN manipulating the cards
that was understood. Well. we made the
game quarter ante and dollar limit. so
LhaL we could use money without making
the awkward change. Every time my callow
friend won pot he put the silver and bills
IN MS pocket and would chip in the money
therefrom as he needed it. After he had won
a respectable pile [ got my work in, and by
handling and dealing the cards in my own
pec9Iar way, soon had his pile considerably
diminished. Occasionally / would let him
win Just to keep the fun up. and l don't know
but thatI enjoyed my opponents innocence as
much as did my friends. But all things must
have an end. Finally l cleaned him out,
mucn to his surprise, and then my friends
could not hold In any longer.

with whom you have been playing

This was somewhat of surprise all

laughed and handed him back the money

would have kept it, and under no circum-
