remedy the difficulty. While so en-
gagged he took hold of both cars with
his hands, and they having become
charged he received terrible shock
which would have resulted seriously
had not one of his companions thrown
off the current.

Been toCookiDgS

The young mistress does ev-
erything according to the prin-
ciples of culinary science as
taught by her instructor. The
first rule of culinary science
she learned at the cooking
school is that of using good
groceries in preparing any and
all dishes. That's common
sense, and the common expe-
rience of sensible people in
Alexandra has demonstrated
that the surest way to have not
only good but the best groce-
ries all the time is to order all
food supplies from the always
reliable and leading grocery in
town. Whatever the article,
mine is the best; whatever the
price, mine is the lowest that
a good thing can be sold for
and besides mine is the largest
and most carefully selected
stock to choose from.

Thsee las been much speculation
absat the so-called Moors living in
Ksat Ane Sussex counties. Delaware.
says the Milford Del.) Herald. These
people re usually swarthy, black
haired and black-eyed. though some
times Of fair complexion. They are
mostly farmers. They have their own
schoess distinct from the general pub
lie eehool system. and they associate
neither with whites nor with blacks.
Ons theory has been that they are Of
the Moorish race and that their anosst-
oss were Spanish Moors wrecked on tho
coast more than century ago. An
other tradition represents them as de-
scendants of the Nanticoke Indians.
George P. Fisher, a lawyer long prac-
ticing In Delaware. writes to present
what he regards as satisfactory evil
dencs Is to the origin of these people.
He has been acquainted with these
people all his life Noke Norwood. a
giant OF the tribe, erect and black
haired at Is, he knew from childhood.
When Mr.. Fisher became attorney gen
eral OF the state he was called upon to
prosecute Levin Sockum. one Of the
race, Tor selling ammunition to Isaiah
Harmon of the same race. the indict-
ment having been found under q
statute OF Delaware making 1t mis-
demeanor to sell arms and ammunition
to any negro or rnulatto. Harmon was
man OF 20 years, with excellent Cau-
casian features, dark chestnut hair.
rosy cheeks and hazel eyes Mr.. Fisher
thought him the handsomest man in the
courtroom. Nevertheless. Lydia Clark.
kinswoman Of Harmon, testified for
the state that according to family
tradition, some years before the revo-
lutionary war broke out, when she was
. little girl, their ancestress, a woman
OF Irish birth, owning and cultivating
. farm Of rstaqvet- sq'.p-croagfosc4o
farm in the Indian River Hundred.
Sussex county. few miles from
Lewes, bought Of SLAYER that was
driven into Lewes Creek a negro slave
who professed to be chief OF one OF
the Congo tribes. The woman, whose
name was Regua, shortly after married
her slave, and their children. not being
allowed to associate with the whites
tntermarried with the remnant Of the
Nanticoke Indians then still living In
Sussex county. The witness, very
old woman, looked like an Indian Of
pure blood.

Met.l wheel. for Your Wagons.

The season for cutting corn fodder
being close at hand it may be well for
farmers to get set of these low metal
wheels with wide tires. They can be
had any size wanted from 20 to Sc
inches in diameter, with tires from
to 8 inches wide. By having low wheels
enables you to bring the wagon box
down low, saving one man In loading
fodder. etc. 1t Is also very convenient
for loading and unloading manure,
grain, hogs, ETC., and will save in la
bor alone their cost in very short
time. These wheels are made of bes'
possible advantage over the high wood
en- wheels with narrow tires, and will
outlast q dozen OF them. There will
also be no resetting Of tires necessary
and consequently no blacksmiths' bills
to pay Wide tires save your horses
and prevent cutting up your fields.

Cure for Bioomers,

A cure for the bloomer craze has
been found at last. 1t is the invention
of shrewd Vermonter, and in the sew
eral instances In which 1t has been tried
1t has worked almost as magically as
magic. The inventor had wife who
rode bicycle, and who insisted upon
wearing bloomers every time she went
out for a spin. Neither protests nor
appeals nor threats could Induce her to
wear another costume. So one day the
husband, with patience that would
have caused Job to open his eyes, sat
down and made a pair of bloomers for
every hen in the poultry yard, and
drawing them on the hens, called his
wife to look at them. They looked just
like she did, he said. when she was on
the wheel in costume. A little more
graceful, perhaps, but not bad repro
duction. There were some sharp
words for moment, but the woman
hasn't worn bloomers since. What's
more, she now declares that she never
will wear them again.

Of the firm, saying gentleman wished to see
her. and, on going down to the drawing
that the stones. which were apparently of
great value. were in reality false and worth
less. Very much agltated over the intelli.
gence, Mrs A. asserted that the Jewels had
never left her possession since their purchase
and claimed that the fraud must have been
perpetrutcd before she received them. This,
OF course, the firm denied. but the feeling on
the subject became very bitter on both sides
and detectives were employed by both to
ferret the mystery. When n former butler
