Julia Ward Howe.

Few names of women are more wideiy
known than that Of Julia Ward Howe.
essayist. poetess. philanthropist ana
public speaker, She was born in new
York City, May q, 1873. her parents
being Samuel Ward and Julia Cutie
Ward. Her ancestors included the
HuRuenot Marions. of South Carolina
Governor Sam Ward. of Rhode Island,
and Roger Williams. the apostle OF re-
IIgious tolerance. Her father. banker.
gave her every advantage OF liberal
education. She was instructed at home
by capable teachers in Greek. German.
French and music, and the ambitious
and earnest girl improved her oppor-
tunities. In 1S43 she became the wife
of DR.. Samuel G. Howe and went abroad
for a season. She had, when only
seventeen years of age. produced sew
eral clever essays and reviews. and in
1859 published her first volume Of
poems. A drama in blank verse. writ
ten in 1853. was produced in both New
York and Boston. Other works fol-
lowed. and during the war Mrs. Howe
became nationally prominent because
Of her stirring patriotic songs. In 1867
she visited Greece with her husband,
where they won the gratitude of the
people of that country because of aid
extended in the struggle for national
Independence. In 1868 Mrs. Howe first
took part in the suffrage movement.
She has since preached. written and
lectured much. and. Notwithstanding
her advanced age. still enjoys life of
almost ceaseless activity. Among her
many works the Battle Hymn of the
Republic" is. perhaps. most widely
known and most likely to remain a
permanently admired masterpiece in
American literature. but In all she has
written there has been displayed the
same earnestness and poetic gift and
the same finished scholarship. She is
almost as well known abroad as in the
United States.

Two years ago Ezra Gospin. of North

buying his whisky at wholesale rates.
He agreed with his wife to pS.- her 10
cents for every drink he took from the
jug. The scheme worked all right until
two months ago. when Mrs. Gospin quit
the business because her husband was
drinking too much. This caused sep

To Telephone to the Moon.

An electrician has expressed his be-
lief that telephoning to the moon is
within the bounds of possibility. He
argues that the ether which binds the
planets together with an iron hand is,
while firm and solid, infinitely elastic,
an ideal medium for the transmission
of vibrations. The vibrations which
constitute light come to us from the
sun in eight minutes, travelling at the
rate of $4,000 miles a second. It is
possible to produce waves moving at
this enormous velocity by electrical
means. A pulsation of electricity
causes an ether wave, and in the tele-
phone the movement of infinitely small
waves produces speech. The waves
produced by ether disturbance spread
out into space, radiating further and
further in gigantic circles until swal-
lowed up in its immensity. like ripples
on the ocean. II an iron mass be in the
vicinity of these pulsations 1t will give
out buzz or hum, as shown in the
passage Of current through some sys-
TENS of street lighting apparatus for
the transformation of high to low pres
sure. The moon undoubtedly contains
its proportionate amount of iron, and
therefore the theory is advanced that
If we can send electrical pulsations to
the moon. we can make things hum on
its rugged surface. Such an expert
ment would involve "the use of a gi-
gantic coil mounted vertically, with its
axis in line with the moon" The pro-
jector to the scheme adds: II lives ex-
list upon the lunar surface, they will
listen with sadness; they will feel that
utter despair that brooks no consola-
tion and stretches out it's arms In
vain" 1t is to be hoped they would not
take on in that way 1t would be poor
thanks to the man who built the
gigantic coil.-New York Times.

from the hospital TO his home was the
most dangerous thing that could have
been done. He thought he should have
been kept quiet after the injury, and
that the removal was fatal. He said,
however, that the wound might have
proved fatal even il Walls had not been
removed. He thought the clot was not
formed before Walls was removed.
DIR. John Palmer, one of the physi-
clans at the Delaware Hospital, was
next called. He related the facts con
nected with the removal of Walls from
the hospital to the house. He said tho
injured mans daughter took him home
against the protests of the physicians
at the hospital, the witness included.
He said that, even though no fracture
had been discovered at that time thay
were surprised that there should bo
desire to disturb him. He said the fact
Of his remaining quiet more than y
hours made his removal more danger
GUS than il be had been taken home
Immediately after the injury was re-
ceived. In the witness opinion the
removal of Walls to his home was ex-
tremey aggrayating in the case, and
he thought the blood clot may have
been caused by the removal from the
hospital. Such, he thought, would
have been the effect no matter how
smooth the streets. He did not con
slider the fracture dangerous of itself.
When cross examined, the witness
said an examination was made when
the man arrived at the hospital, and no
depression was found in the skull. He
thought there might he fracture, but
the patient was not there long enough
on the following day for thorough ex-
animation. He said man might be
thrown upon his head and the blood
vessels only be irritated, and they might
burst during a ride along the streets
'16 hours afterward. He said there
were no positive indications of rup-
tured vessels Immediately after the
fall, but he did not know when the
rupture was made. Immediately after
the occurrence there were no positive
symptoms of hemorrhage of the brain.
The rupture might have been caused
by striking the platform. He would
not say that the clot was on the man 8
brain before he left the hospital. He
did not know whether Walls would
have died il allowed to remain at the
hospital or not, but he was sure he
would have stood a better chance of
recovery by remaining at the hospital.
James Mclaughlin followed Dr.
Palmer. lie was short distance back
of Morahan when he met Walls. His
testimony was to the effect that Walls
staggered against Morahan, and when
the latter pushed him away he fell.

stand court adjourned until 2. 30 p. m.

CONFESSED THE RoBBERY.


"Buck" Cunningham, the man who
sawed his way out of the police station
here, confessed Monday that he and
two pals robbed p, W. & B. railroad
car on November 9th, near Claymont.
Detective Jones who was present
when the men were given hearing in
Chester Monday, stated to reporter
of Tho Gazette that the robbery was
committed on November 9th, when
clothing worth about $40 was stolen.
1t was thought the robbery occurred in
Delaware 1t was known that it was
somewhere near Claymont, but in the
confession it was ascertained that the
crime was committed in Pennsylvania,
and consequently the men will have to
stand trial in that State.

Mddletown, Nov. 26.-The Rev.
Thomas Houston, the blind evangelist,
preached his farewell sermon at the
Forrest Presbyterian Church, Sunday
morning, to one of the largest congre

a church in this town. Twenty-eight
additions to the church ia the result of
the meetings. The services yesterday
closed two. weeks engagement, the
equal of which has never before been
experienced in this community. The
church was crowded at every meeting
and visitors from distance were pres
ont. So impressive were the sermons
that when polite request was made by
the Rev. Frank H. Moore that the con
gregation should show their apprecia-
tion of the excellent work executed, by
financial Offering for the benefit of
the visiting clergymen, the request was
quickly responded to and about SO

SEATING OF COL. DU POINT.
Interest In His Contest Rekindied by the
Near Approach of Congress.


Special Correspondence Of Gazette and journal
Washington, Nov. 26. The hear ap-
proach of Congress has kindled anew
the interest in the impending contest
which Col. Fl. A. du Pont will make
for a seat in the United States Senate.
Senator III. c. Hansbrough has ar
rived in the city and taken suite of
rooms in the Hotel Page. The Gazette's
correspondent called on him last
night, and asked for his opinion as to
whether Col. Cu pont would be seated.
The Senator stated that he had not mad
an opportunity to study the case, and
was only acquainted with the facts
from reading newspaper articles. He
said that he could not express an
opinion positively until he had looked
more thoroughly into the matter,
especially AS the question involved
would require "a legal Interpretation
which he was not prepared to give at
this time.
"The Senate Of the United States, I"
he said, sis inclined to look upon such
matters with an impartial eye, and
from judicial standpoint. Col. du
Points constitutional right to a seat
will weigh vary heavily in determining
the merits of his claim.
do you think the recent elections
or reorganization of the Senate will
have any effect upon the case?" was
asked.
"No, l think not,'' the Senator re-
Piled" think the case will be de-
termined upon its own merits, and on
this alone. / do not think reorgani-
zation would make any change either
ono UNIV or the atbar ~
"Will there be reorganization of
the Senate?''
~ think the Republicans should
oragnize the Senate, or make an at
tempt at least. They may not do so at
the start, but will eventually do so.
The coming of the two Utah Senators,
who will probably be Republicans,
may figure in the matter. "

WHIRLS OF THE WHEEL.

A 100-mile open road race will be held
on September q under the auspices of the
Century Cycle club of Newark. II will be
over n 25-mile course through Elizabeth,
Plainfield and Railway.
1t is almost an assuered fact that the
Springfield Bicycle club will have two
professional races on each day of its Sep
tember tournament, in which all the fast
riders OF that class will doubtless com
pete. For each OF these n divided purse
Of $500 will probably be offered. In 1893
and 1894 the club purchased all OF It's prizes
but this year the local merchants and the
cycle manufacturers are donating gener-
ousIy. The Warwick Cycle company will
give 5000. to be applied to the purchase of
a. diamond to be offered as first prize for
the big international race on the last day
Of the meet. The Overman Wheel com
panypany has promised $500 and the Union
Cycle company 800.
