The announcement OF a new novel from

tho most important of the present year. The

quent enormous success OF her last novel,
''Barabbas." now in its twenty'ffth thou

OF that book. The story turns upon the in
csrnation of satan in human form and in
modern society. and Miss Corelli shows her
ability 10 handle the burning questions OF

TO OUR MERCHANTS.

BY HAL DAVID.
Cheer up and wake up to your
labor,
Don't waste the bright hours
away;
For better time is coming,
Ipredict it from today.
The fast gliding moments are pass
ing,
Forever beyond your recall;
And God in his wisdom has given
A work and duty for all.
Go cheerfully forth to meet it,
Whenever your lot may b cast;
Be deligent earnest and faithful,
And worthy of honor at last.
The path may be humble and
lowly,
With trials and sorrows to bear ;
But patience and cheerfulness
always,
Take much from the burden of
care.
There is pleasure in work and in
duty,
With laziness out of the way
A pleasure most healthy and
healing,
That saves from the rust of decay
In this day Of hustle and pro-
gress,
There's no time for fogy ideas;
Advertise ia our Special Edition,
And you'll save the labor of years.

TUG ATTACKED BY WHALES.
Thrilling Experience of American Marin
ers on Cape Henlopen.
Globe-Dsmocrat.

Globe-Dsmocrat.
Capt Mitchell of the steamer tug
Thomas j. Smith, which arrived here
yesterday from sea having in tow the
bone4aden ItaNan bark Oreb, from
Buenos Ayres, which she picked up to
the southward of Fenwicks Island, re-
ports having been attacked by tremen-
dous school of whales at II o'clock in
the morning on Monday last, while cruis-
ing forty miles southeast of Cape Hen
lopen. The whales surrounded the tug for
a period of four hours, blowing large
streams of water into the air, which COM
pletely shut out all view of the surround
ings. Ut was peculiar experience, and
Captain Mitchell says he never saw such
large whales, nor were they ever known
to congregate in such numbers so close
to The land. In speaking of the expert
ence on the floor Of the Maritime Ex-
change yesterday afterpoon the weather
beaten skipper had soon drawn about him
a large number of old salts, and 1t was
generally agreed that it was the fore
runner of some grave sea disaster to
see Whales in such numbers along the
coast.
1t was a serious time on board the
fr-ail tug, and all hands were badly scared
as these monsters seemed dnfuriated and
dashed in and along 1.-THE sides of the boat
with great force. Captain Mitchell ran the
engines up full speed ahead and at
tempted to get clear Of the school, but
the huge marine animals followed the tug,
almost swamping her with the immense
volume of water they threw on board.
Finding that any attempt to get away
from Them was futile, Capt. Mitchell
loaded up large horse pistol he had on
board and began firing into them, but the
bullets had no effect. One monster he put
six shots into, but 1t only dnfuriated the
animal still more. 1t was about o'clock
in the afternoon when THE leader of the
school headed off shore, and so the whole
numbr followed in THAT direction and dis
appeared.
II have at times seen one or two whales
off the capes," said Capt. Mitchell ''but
this is the first time l ever beheld such
a sight ais this school presented"
Capt. Mitchell says it is an experience
he will never forget. Soon afterward he
kept down to the southwark and picked
UP the italian bark Oreb. She, Like many
OF the either Ibone-.aden vessels that
have visited here of late, is filled with
vermin.

tinued to be amusing, though the fun was
not quite so fast and furious all the way
to Kajima, where the mountains and

still ran rapidly but smoothly divided
into several channels by long gravel
banks, on which gay willows and bam-
boos grew ,and snlpe and herons congre-
gated. We met strings of boats being
laboriously towed along. The wind gen

Looked Down too Soon-To See the Rail-
road Consummated.
In obedience to the expressed wish of
the worthy ladies In charge Of the Libra
ry entertainment who have engaged the
fat woman, the living skeleton and the
bearded lady, the man in the moon ex-
hibited a freak last night in the shape
of a crescent scarf pin with a star rep
resenting a diamond of extraordinary
brilliancy in the upper right-hand corner.
1t was phenomenon that attracted the
attention of theladies and gentlemen out
on a promenade last night; to the young
lady who had just partaken Of the hos
pitality of her Sunday-go-to-meeti
young man, by getting away with dish
of ice cream, it denoted diamond we'd
cling ring, but like that little diamond
near the man i'll the moon, 1t seems so
near and yet so far; to our silver friend
who had just exhausted The patience of
a patient listener 1t presaged the GER
tain triumps of his party, because the
moon was at least 10 times as large as
the star, and was sure TO eclipse the
bright little sinner.
The man on his way home from lodge
even stopped long enough to remark that
the man in the moon seemed about a
flirting with the stars at this hour of the
night; poor soul! He'll see more than
one star by the time he reaches the ST.
lent chambers of his donicile.
One man brought out his field glass
SO as to get nearer the phenomenon and
catch an inspiration, while another looked
through beer glass and felt inspired and
still another said that he would get his
fish line ready, because when he was
little boy he saw similar crossing of the
night illuminators and on the next day
he caught a 6O-yard string full of trout.
A member of the subsidy committee
was setting em up for the boys, because
this alliance between the moon and the
star showed the near approach of the
railroad.
1t was truly wonderful sight, this
pale face, nicknamed the "moon," cavort
ing and playing hide and seek with the
bright little star.
Talk about the feet OF Trilby or the
shades of Mosesl Why, alongside of this
combination of the golden moon and the
silvery star, the two lltsle girls in blue
are nowhere; why, even the dull, moon
eyed Chlnaman, who Is the preserver of
salmon and the perverter of truth, caught
the inspiration and paid a nickle to the
photograph man at Beveridges cigar
store to hear the music from the star.
