Tho ch.pcclIor,hip.

There is still much speculation over when
Chancellor Wolcott will present his resig-
nation to Governor Watson. 1t Is generally
accepted that he will not resign until No
vember, as he viii need that much time in
which to settle UP the cases In his court SO
that his successor will go into office un-
trammelled. There is also report current
that the chancellor wants to name his own
successor. The same rumor has Il that
the chancellor is not anxious to have At
torney-General John r.. Nicholson succeed
him. The attorney-general is getting en-
tirely too popular In Kent county to please
the chancellor. 1t Is also surmised that the
attorney-general has a senatorial boom con-
cealed somewhere about him ami this boom
may crop out at any time.
Some OF the Wilmington lawyers are urg-
ing the claims OF John II. Rodney Of this
county to be chancellor. 1t Is probable that
these lawyers win shortly begin canvass
among the members Of the New Castle
county bar In the interest OF Mr.. Rodney
1t is said that Chancellor Wolcott would
like to see Judge 1gnatius C. Gr,fbb ap-
pointed to succeed him, but 1t is also said
that Judge Grubb does not want the place
and would hardly accept 1t IL 1t was offered
to him.
In the meantime the chancellor goes on
with his work and does not talk for publ
cation. 1t is generally accepted as q fact,
however, that the chancellor will not re-
sign until November, as he desires to fin-'
ish up the work Of his Office previous to tha.
time. Governor Watson can also be de-
pended upon to appoint the man Of his
choice to succeed Chancellor Wolcott when
he resigns. regardless Of the wishes or
feelings OF anyone else.

THE Big PRIZE FIGHT.
Will Texas Legislature Enact a
Law to Prevent It2
GOVERNORS FRIENDS JUB1IANT

They Declare the Event viii be Pre-
vented By Law Making II Felony.
The Work Of Constructing the Amphi-
theatre Being Rapidly Pushed.
AUSTIN, Tex, Sept. Ex-Governor Gull
berson's proclamation converting the leg
isinture next Tuesday, to enact another
antiprize fight law, was great surprise.
1t requires two-thirds vote to give i'm
mediate effect. Representative Ham Ward,
a leading member of the house. said today
that the Legislature would undoubtedly
pass law to go into effect at once, and
that 1t would make prize fighting felony.
He thinks that the law will be passed
within week after the legislature meets.
The governors supporters are jubilant,
and regard a law to take immediate effect
as certainty. The opposition maintain
shat the required two thirds Of the mem
bers Of the legislature will not be secured
for an immediate act but do not doubt
that law will be passed to take effect in
ninety days. While taking this view, the
opposition are wondering what the COVER
nor will do next II a law to take Immediate
effect is not passed. The question on all
sides Is, Will the governor rest his case on
Legislative actions Conservative opinion
government, the judicial and legislative,
should and will settle the matter. The ju-
dietary has spoken, and the legislative will
be heard from by Oct. 4.
President Stuart, Of the Florida Athletic
club, maintains his usual business attitude
and rests, and he always does, on the legal
advice of his attorneys that he is proceed
ing under the law. He says: "When sat
isfled that the laws OF Texas guaranteed
protection to the citizens who invest their
money in enterprises not prohibited by
law, the contract for the building is now
half completed and being rapidly pushed.
Contracts involving over million feet of
lumber and a hundred other obligations
have been entered into, and all fair minded
and upright legislators will do Justice
to all alike, avoiding anything like con-
fiscation or interference with contracts
made with a high judicial decision us
guide"
The Dallas News concludes an editorial
on the situation in these words: And
now 1t is to be hoped that the legislature
will at least bring the problem to some eff
fective and salutary conclusion. In ac-
complishing this work 1t will not BIO
enough for the Legislature to close the
state against revolving brutalities of the
ring; 1t must as fully guard against the
perils of scandals Of conflicts of executive
and judicial authorities, such as that
which was recently brewing"

A Highly PrIzrd Dn inr.

A Wilmington woman living at Salinas,
California, sent to this city. few days ago,
one dollar as contribution to the Epworth
League fund Of st. Pauls NJ. e. Church.
The money sent was the first fee received
by the contributors husband for profess
s!onal services as physician.
This physician and his wife graduated
from their respective schools, he as
homeopathic physician, about eighteen
months ago, were married and left this
city within a week after their graduation
TO make their home In California. The wife
was a member of The Epworth League while
living here. and ON receiving letter from
this city asking for a contribution for the
league, sent to her correspondent the first
fee paid to her husband for professional
services.
This dollar is very highly priced by the
members Of the Epworth League.

MRS. oULBEReoN TALKS.
The Govornor's wife Thinks tho Fight
Should Not be Prevented.

Should Not be Prevented.
CHICAGO, Ills. Sept. 2s.-"If Texas wants
q prize fight it should have 1t, said Mrs.
A. Culberson Before leaving Chicago yes
terday for Texas. Mrs. Culberson is the
wife of Governor Culberton, of Texas, and,
with her mother, Mrs. Harris, has been
spending the summer in the north.
WHAT the use of poor Charles working
himself to death to prevent something the
whole state wants?" continued Mrs. Cul.
berson. AT least nine men out of every
ten in Texas want the prize fight, and,
after all, he was elected to carry out the
will of the people, and the people want tho
fight. / don't care what they say they
want, or pretend to say, they would, every
one of them, go to 1t. Then, think of the
money 1t is going to cost to convene the
legislature. ! don't sec, any way, why
one man should have the power to decide
what the rest should do. One mans judg-
ment Is no better than another's, and l
don't see why one judges opinion is better
than those of his fellow judges"
"Think of his conscience and his respon-
sibility In tho NATTER said Mrs. Harris.
"a man must do what lie thinks right
when he holds in trust an office for tho
people"
"That's just it," said Mrs. Culberson
HE does hold it for the people, and the
people want the fight, and l say let them
have 1t. There is mouse In his staying up
nights and worrying himself to death try
ing to keep up public dignity"
And Mrs. Culberson looked as If she
meant what she said, and was far more
concerned about tue hard work and worry
her husband had been Obliged to undergo
in order to keep his threat and convene
the legislature than about any pugilists
trying to sully Texas fame.
Il have met number of very prom
inent business men from Texas this SUM
mor," Mrs. Culberson went on, land
every one of them believe in allowing the
fight to go on, and here the governor is
trying to stop something the popular senti-
ment Is in favor of having It's all foolish
ness, and I've told him so. l said, You
are elected to carry out the will of the peo-
pie and you are not doing it all when you
oppose what they WANT

THE SIN OF OMISSION.

1t Isn't the thing you do dear,
I's the thing you leave undone
That gives you bit OF q heat tache
At The setting OF tho sun.
The tender word forgotten;
The letter you did not write;
The flower you did not send, dear,
Are your haunting ghosts at night |
The stone you might have lifted
Out Of brothor's way,
The bit OF hearteome council
You were hurried too much to say:
The loving touch OF the hand, dear,
Tho gentle winding tone
Which YOU had no time or thought for
with truublee Of your own.
Those little acts OF blindness
So easly out OF mind.
Those chances to be angels
Which We pour mortals lind,
They come Ill night and siIeucs,
Each sad. reproachtul wrath.
When hope Is faint and tagging
And u chill had fallen OIL faith,
For life Is all Too short, dear,
And sorrow 10 all TOO great
To eufIer our Glow Cam passion
That tarrits until too late;
And II isn't the thing you do, dear.
It's the Thing you leave undone,
which gives you Tile bit OF beartacbe
