% One Of the greatest annoyances which
the ne xapaper dealers OF the city have
to contend with is the stealing of papers
served TO their customers. Not only Is
II an annoyance to the publishers and
distributors, hut 1t Is still greater one
TO tho customer, who Is deprived Of the
news OF the day and put to considerable
Inconvenience reporting the fact. The
value OF the papers themselves Is a
minor consideration. The law recognizes
this annoyance and makes special pro.
vision for II. while many Of the news
paper publishers offer rewards for the
arrest OF the petty thieves.
For some time complaints have been
made TO Henry M Butler, local

wide publicity in the papers and 1t was
hoped that IL would have a sAlutory
effect 1t didn't and complaints kept
coming in.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Butler marked
several papers before they were distribu-
ted and then lay In wait for the Offend

age.
This morning they we're arraigned

A..TAsTE or THE INCOME TAX.

DeIawareans who WIN Lose a Part OF
Their semi-aunual Dividends Through
the Obnoxious Law.
Delawareans who are fortunate enough
TO own shares OF the stock OF the r., w.
& b railroad are already beginning to
feel the effects Of the new income tax.
The directors Of that road in declaring
the semi annual dividend Of 81 per cent
made provisions for deducting from It
the income tax OF per cent.
The capitalization OF the company is
$1l. s19 $50, the semi annual dividend
$4l3. 672 20 OF this sum IS. .273 AS is
deducted for Uncle Sans use, or
an equivalent of 81 cents on each
share The Pennsylvania road will go
into effect January ], 1896, and provides
that the tax shall be levied and collected
on the gains, profits and income for the
year ending December 81, preceding.
The object Of deducting this sum now,
is to put the obnoxious law into effect as
soon as possible aud the sooner this was
done the sooner the tide of sentiment
calling for it's repeal would set In.

Samuel ] Entriksn, Of West Chester,
a member OF the Peary relief expedition
and second In command Of the last
Peary expedition, delivered a lecture In
Grace Sunday school hall last night.
1t WAS descriptive OF the scenery. life
and habits of the psople of the Arctic
regions, and was illustrated by excel
lent stereopticon views The clothing
Of the people was shown Il consists
OF two suits, one for winter, and the
other for Summer wear. The Summer
suit Is much the lighter of the two,
being made OF hair seal, while the Winter
suit consists OF a reindeer coat and seal
skin trousers and boots The skins are
taken from the animals as nearly whole
as possible, 80 as to avoid seam, but
when these are necessary, they are very
strong, being sewed with reindeer fibre
The skins are first dried by exposure
to air and sun, aud then ohewed by the
women and children to reduce them to
the proper condition TO be made into
clothing Huge fur hoods and double
thumbed mittens are also worn. One Of
the most curious articles shown was a
shirt made Of the skins Of about seventy
birds All the clothing is made by the
women. who dress exactly like the men.
Mr. Entriken showed a number of the
hunting implements OF the Greenlsnder.
and described the method OF making aud
nsing In q very interesting manner
They consisted OF rude spears and arrows,
but with which Arctic hunters, single
handed and alone had attacked and slain
bears, walrus and seals.
The views we're those Of the various
polar settlements, of the inhabitants,
the animals and the glaciers and Ice.
bergs. There were also several views Of
the glszlsr named for Verhoff. and the
crevasse IN which he Is supposed to have
lost bis life. Not the least interesting
were the maps. on which the speak or
traced the route OF his expeditions.
About 300 persons enjoyed the lecture.

time. The immediate cause OF her death
was dropsy, complicated with heart dis
case. The disease rapidly became worse
during tho last few days. The princess
was cheerful to the end She tried TO de-
ceive har husband as to her real condi-
tion. She spent much Of her time out OF
bod
DR. Snhweninror and DIR. Chrysander
regarded hor case as hopeless a month
ago, but concealed tho truth from Prince
Bismarck. When recently the wife of the
Princes valet fell seriously III, Prince
Bismarck said TO him: Dear friend, SIN
oeSely sympathize with you In your grief.
for alas, / am in the same terrible posi-
tion as yourself Every one is departing
from u.s. DR.. Schweninger has been
here since Friday but he was unable to
do anything beyond attending to the COM
fort Of the dying princess.
The prince is quite overcome by the
death of his wife. DR.. Schweninger gen
tly broke the news to Prince Bismarck,
who rose Immediately and remained ST.
lently for some timo at the deathbed. At
the death scene thero were present DIR.
Sohweninger, DIR. Chrysander, Countess
Rantzau and Prince Bismarck's niece
Prince Bismarck personally communi-
Gated tho news OF tho death OF the prin-
cess to the emperor and empress, who i'm
mediately sent long telegram Of condo
lence. Among the others who have al
ready sent messages Of sympathy and re-
gret are the king Of Wurtemburg Chan
cellor Won Hohenlohe and the ministers
and secretaries of state.
According to some accounts. the prince
Is so broken down that his doctors insist
upon his speedy removal to Friedrichs-
modest scale out Of regard for his condi-
tion. II is expected that the body will be
removed on Saturday. Prince Bismarck
once expressed wish to be buried under
the oaks Of his beloved Saohsenwald. It
was concluded from this that he intended
to build mausoleum there, but the fam
lily vault is at Sohonhausen.

convictions as every other man should
have his; but recognizes the fact that
we have here an evil TO deal with which
never will be remedied by the partisan
politicians of either of the leading
parties, and II It Is TO bs remedied at all,
the work must be done by those of all
parties or Of no party who are willing to
work for the public good alone, regard
less OF what the effect may be on in
dividuals or the political parties with
which they may be associated.
Let US then have a Law and Order
society which will cover this entire state,
and let us make vote buying and vote
selling so odious thst no one will dare be
guilty Of it, aud wherever It is possible
leu the vote buyer and the vote seller be
punished with the full penalty Of the
law and let us love and preserve the good
name Of our community and state not
only for the present but for all the
generations which are to follow us
Bishop CoIsman's Remarks,
Right Rev. Bishop Coleman then was
introduced and spoke briefly. He
heartily endorsed the society and it's
work, .and explained that the crusade
was not revengsful one. but for the
benefit of the many and the protection
Of the weak. The protection OF thoee
who are unable to withstand temptation.
The yirtuons man needs to know but
little of law, for he Is ruled by his own
conscience and his fear of God.
Bishop Coleman characterized the fail
ure OF some to operate with the society
as pure cowardice, and said: There are
business men who do not aid the society
directly, or indirectly because they are
afraid they will lose trade. A man will
give his signature TO a petition for a
| license for a ne Y saloon which he knows
is not public necessity, because he Is
simply afraid TO say no to the man for
fear he will withdraw or diminish his
custom, and when there is a hagrant
violation Of the law 1t Is difficult to get
evidence to prove q case against the
violstor for the same reason. They are
afraid they will lose money or votes
/ The time will come when they will learn
that there are better things than money
or the holding of office, or having in
auenee to plish our selfish ends.
Citizen or Gentleman.
The speaker said that citizen aud gen
tleman were not synonymous, aud that
many citizen was not gentleman. He
then alluded to the saloon which he
characterized as the very hot bed oil
crime. He said that It was claimed that
in the saloon the political schemes wer,
mainly Matched, and the suppression oi
these places would necessarily lead to
purer system OF politics. He spoke o.
the gambling curse aud urged that IL
order to effect good results from law 4
was necessary to back up the enforcers o.
those laws
He said "God has spoken and said
'Defile not the land which ye shall in
habit, for the Lord God dwell with thl
children Of Israel These existing
evils are not only an injury to you, but
an insult to our fellow citizens Re
member that the Lord God, by his owl
words, has become fellow oiti
zen OF ours. This should nerve u
and give us strength to fight the gool
fght and win glorious victory

ence for their attendance and dismisse

like mere pigmies

workman on the tour was presented,
