DELAWARE DEADLOCK MAY BREAK
George Massey Named as the Probable
SenatOr.EIect

Dover, Del, April 12-There is a prob
ability that the deadlock for United States
senator to succeed Anthony j. Higgins
will be broken within a few days. The
ground for this prophecy is the statement
made today by Senator Handy, leader
of Addick's faction. that the next United
States senator would be George Massey,
and he would be chosen within three
weeks. Since the death of the late Cover
nor Marvil there has been a disposition on
the part of Higgins and Addicks' follow
ers to unite on some one favorable to
both factions. The statement of the sena-
tor that Massey would eventually be elect
ed looks as II the Addick people were
working, as 1t has been known all along
that Addick was very bitter against Mas
sey, because he allowed his name to go be-
fore the caucus. The 109th ballot, taken
today, resulted as follows: Higgins 8.
Addick s. Massey 4. Pennewill 2. Ridgely 0,

YOU NEVER CAN TELL.

You never can tell when you send a word
Like an arrow shot from bow
By an archer blind-be 1t cruel or kind,
Just where it will chance TO go.
1t may pierce the breast Of your dearest
friend,
Tipped with its poison or balm;
To strangers heart in life's great mart
1t may carry its pain or its calm.
You never can tell when you do an act
Just what the result will be;
But with every deed you are sowing seed,
Though its harvest you may not see.
Each kindly act is an acorn dropped
In Gods productive soil;
Though you may know not; yet the tree shall
grow
And shelter the brows that toll.
You never can tell what your thoughts will
do
In bringing you hate or love;
For thoughts are things, and their airy wings
Are swifter than carrier doves.
They follow the law Of the universe
Each thing must create its kind;
And they spread DER the track to bring you
buck
Whatever went out from your mind.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
