The First Beach Party.

Last Monday night a party of six
teen couples went down to Woodland
Beach to pass the evening pleasantly
away in dancing and social greetings.
A thunder storm which had come up
prevented the party from leaving at 4
O'Clock, so it was nearly six before
most of the party got off. The rain,
however did not reach Woodland. The
Beach seemed to be at their disposal.
Those who did not dance, spent the
evening out on the pier or pavilion
where they could end the cool breeze,
and enjoy at the same time the beauty
of a gorgeous moonlight night. The
party took supper at the hotel, after
which the toboggan slide was the
special feature. Later in the evening
Oglesby started up the maizy waltz and
for two or more hours kept in time to
this social whirl. There were many,
long after the music had died away,
who seemed reluctant to leave this ma
lures retreat and it was the wee hours

THIS hot weather is not inducive to
active politics, but the undercurrent Is
in motion nevertheless. The choice OF
Ebe W. Tunnel by the Democratic
leaders for Governor seemed to go
at first without challenge, as it there
was no use to object, but on Saturday
there was a protest against this kind OF
unanimity on the part of the many
political friends of VIM. L. Sirman, OF
Delmar, who will contest strongly for
the nomination. During the same time
comes the announcement that Joshua
H. Marvil, of Laurel, declines, because
of continued feeble health to assume
the burdens of the campaign,as the Re
publican candidate which without an
ther decided choice in Sussex, may
throw the cheice to Kent.

fast approaching thunder storm should
break upon them. In an instant, un-
apprehended by Miss Cooper who was

The meeting of the Christian En-
deayor Association in Cleveland, Ohio
last week, when cars were obstructed
on most lines and violence ruled the
day, was in marked contrast to the
movements that characterized Chicago
and the larger number of socialistic
strikers assembled there. If the spirit
had animated the latter that pervaded
the youthful assemblage that met in
Cleveland, there would have been none
of that anarchistic feeling that came
out IN destruction and fire and blood i'll
the more western towns.
The very composition of the eonven-
tion, made up Of ten thousand accredited
delegates, chosen from all creeds and
denominations of protesting Christians,
and representing an enrolled member
ship of two millions of professors OF
Christs faith, could but have challeged
the admiration of even the rioters in
their calmer moments. The spirit that
breathes a chrisslike benedictiOn on
men in all avOcations Of life, musl
have a soft, modifying affect the Op
pOsite lefthat which naturally dominates
the human mind unillumined by the
gospel. From the ranks of these young
persons rather than from those whC
ignore the churches and religious or
ganization are to come those who arr
to lead the way to a better settlemen
of the difficulties disturbing capital ant
labor.

Dun's and Bradstreet's Reviews of the
Country's Commerce.

R. C. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of
trade says:
When circumstances are duly
weighed, the strength and soundness of
business in this country during the
past two weeks are amazing.
With the second city in the country
in the hands of a lawless and murder
Gus mob, besides many other cities and
towns, with railway traffic almost en-
tirely stopped over the vast area be-
tween Toledo and the Pacific, with
Presidential proclamatiOns declaring
the existence of an insurrection, and
the passionate answer ordering half a
million to stop work, with a prolonged
strike of coal miners not fully ended in
many States, and with differences Oe-
tween the House and Senate on the
tariff question so wide that the duties
affecting manufacturers and mining
cannot be anticipated, industries and
trade have nevertheless gone on with
sublime confidence that the people and
their Government would soon restore
order.
The shrinkage of business and the
depression of values have been unex-
NhG AOAobANOAy
few and unimpOrtant, and there are
even signs in some industries of actual
progress toward recovery from prev
ious troubles.
Wheat is slightly lower, in profound
disregard of the Governments report in.
dicating a yield of less than 100000, ,OOO
bushels, and, as the official estimate OF
yield in 1898 was more than 100000, ,OO0
bushels short of actual exports and
consumption, it is readily assumed that
another discrepancy as large may
spring from similar causes. Receipts
and exports In the present disturbed
condition of business are not significant
Corn has advanced little, though &C
counts indicate good yield. Cotton
has declined an eighth, with favorable
information as to conditions, as the
years records have so discredited off
cial and other estimates that little at
tentiOn is now paid to them.

THE great strike, about which there
was so much apprehension, collapsed
nearly a week ago and is now spoken
of as one of the many things of the past
that came to an inglorious end. 1t did
not end however until the working
meE exhibited disposition for tyran-
nous conduct and rule, that surpassed
anything ever attempted by the Car
of Russia. In their war upon capital
they carried their phrensy to point
that would destroy even that which
furnished their own means of substence'
Fire was their ready agent in destroy
ing property, without the natural re-
gard that would ensue for the loss of
life.
The last desperate card of Debs OF
the American Railway Union, was to
work things through Sovereign, of the
knights of Labor, and other Labor
organizations, to have a united sympa-
thetic strike, and not only paralize the
railroads, but all other industries.
Here, next to President Cleveland's
proclamation and the use of military in
defending property from destruction at
their hands, was their bluster shown to
be weak and aimless. Instead of sew
eral hundred thousand men striking
and Joining the idle and incendiary
army only $1,000 in Chicago went out
on strike. The die was cast-Debs and
his fellow conspirators had staked all
and lost. Can he show how the en-
ployes of the Pullman Company or any
other class of laborers have been bene-
fitted BIZ this terrible sacrificeP
Debs already feels the meshes of the
law Tightening about him, and like all
other culprits, is trying to disclaim al
responsibility for the crimes commit
ted, by pleading that he advised all tc
refrain from violence, or in any way tC
interfere with the rights of others, a
the same time knowing that lawless
ness, riot and murder would follow

Rasa Ball.

Base ball interest has been enthused
so far as to agitate the formation OF
League in tEis State and all efforts are
being put forward to the formation of
a good team such as can cope with any
that may join this proposed League.
Last Thursday night the base ball en-
thusiasts of our town met for the pur-
pose of forming an association. ThOs.
Mccoy was elected president, Walton
M. Busteed secretary and treasurer and
A. Lee Cummins and Chas. Armstrong
directors. Perkins Brown was retained
as manager.
One of the most exciting games of
the season was played here last We'd
nesdav afternoon. The rivalry position
of our sister town towards this, made
the game more intensely interesting
than it would have been with any other
team. Dover had defeated smyrna by
a score of II to and now it was
Smyrna's eager desire to put up neat
game and to win a victory. The desire
was carried out and Dover met her
Waterloo, the score being to in favor
of Smyrna. The features of the game
were the superior pitching of Stevens
/ anu Tue dli-iOuuu piay lhS VI AAihhAO
The beautiful fielding of Trnax was ap

feature was the One-handed catch o.

expect another victory.
