happened that he got in the way of the

Important Appointments.

For two months it has been an open
and much discussed secret that Chan
cellor Wolcott was intending to resign
the chancellorship. Yesterday the very
brief correspondence between him and
the Governor is made public, showing
that he resigned on Tuesday of last
week and his resignation was accepted
yesterday.
During the three years that Mr..
Wolcott has filled tho highest judicial
office Of the state, he has won repu-
tation among his brethren of tho bar
for sound learning and great legal
acnmen. Unquestionably he is we'll
equipped for the place.
1t has been generally understood
that he has all along chafed somewhat
undcr the restraints which the judicial
character of the office places upon
the Chancellor. Tho traditions and
proprlctics Of the Office will not permit
any judge to take part in politics, and
MI Wolcott has natural aptitude
and taste for the keen edge Of active

Free speech triumphed at the Grand
Opera House, Sunday night, and the
giraffe Single Takers held their meet
ing, undisturbed by police interference.
Nor did they sal under false colors.
They boldly declared that their gather
ing was Il Single Tax meeting, and
Mr. Henry George, their special orator,
plainly announced that he would dis
cuss the Single Tax question. More
than that, no said that while he had
been advertised to deliver his lecture
on THY Kingdom Come" he had
changed his mind on learning that the
police authorities had determined to
arrest, him il he discussed taxation.
and would therefore speak unon the
Single Tax. There was no mistake
about the object and purpose OF the
assemblage, but the police authorities,
very nroperly, did not interfere.
It is announced, however, that the
police will watch the rest Of the Sun
day night meetings of the Single
Takers, ready tn arrest tho speakers il
they say things that certain people
think should not be said at public
meeting held on Sunday night. We
hore the Police Commissioners will do
nothing Of the sort The meeting Sum
day night was attended by an audience
that filled the house, three fourths Of
whom, it is safe to say, wero attracted
solely by desire TO see the rumnus
that they supposed would be accustomed
by the presence of the police. They
went away disappointed. Once it is
assured that there will be no intorfer-
ence by the authorities, the Single
Takers will not be able to draw cor
poral's guard to their Sunday night
meetings. Remembering this fact,
and the further fact that the world
moves as usual to-day, notwithstand-
ing that political meeting was held
in Wilmington on Sunday night, it is
hoped that tho Police Commissioners
will wisely admit the folly Of further
interference. The Single Takers are
aching TO be arrested, so as to pose as
martyrs to their failing cause. Let
| alone, their movement will die of
| hamilton.
Mr.. Henry George, who was thus in
troduced 10 a Wilmington audience in
such dramatic manner, was disap-
pointment He proved no such orator
as was expected. As to his exposition
of the Single Tax doctrine, it was no
more explicit than the meaningless
harangues that have been delivered on
the street corners by the small fry
Single TAKERS during all of last sum
NOR, except that it was more polished
IN style and more elegant in delivery.
Ihat tho audience was not in sympathy
with his doctrines was shown by the
fact that the applause was confined
almost exclusively to the stage, which
was occupied mainly by the bumptious
crowd of Single Tax gabblers from
Philadelphia who have presumed to in
wade this State with the idea of teach
ing political salvation to the people of
Delaware. 1t rests with the police
authorities whether the future Sunday
night orators will have largo audiences
to listen to thcm. If let severely alone
AS they should be in all Justice, and
by right Of law they will offer no at
traction to the good people Of Whining
ton.

BOYS CLOTHING

The Sailor Suits for boys of
3 to 7 that we sold in the early
part of this month at IS looked
very much like these. But
examination proves these even
better than were they. And
this lot is marked at $4. They
are made with red cloth coi-l
lar, black braid trimmed;
edged with white silk SOU
tache.
Suppose you didn't happen
to fancy this style, there are
Sailor Suits from $3.50 to
S8.5o-and interesting, every
one of them. That is our
way of making the public
share the benefit of this
doubled clothing business.
Better and better clothing
values.
Don't buy a -cheap-looking
overcoat. Boys are hard users
OF clothes, and it takes our
best efforts to produce gar
ments that will stay present
able. Cape Overcoats for
ages 8 TO . are ready. $7.yc,
and $3.50.

SPECIAL c0NsT-IBLEs' CLAIMS.
To be Paid ON Presentation of Commission
ana Proof OF Service.

~ ne hAiu On IfesentNtloh OIL commissions
ana Proof OF Service.
The Levy Court, at secret meeting
held on Tuesday afternoon, resolved to
allow the special constables who served
at the last State election So each, one
days pay, on presenting their COM
missions and proving active service.
The resolution, which was drawn by
John III. Rodney, the courts attorney,
was introduced by Commissioners
Mealey The motion to adopt it was
made by Commissioner White.
Commissioner Gallagher asked why
the list of signers of tho petition ask
ing exGov. Reynolds for the appoint
ment of the constables had not been
sent to the court as requested. Clerk of
the Peace Foard read personal letter,
which stated that Mr. Reynolds would
not make the list public property, but
would show it to members Of the court
if they would call ON him. His reason
for declining to produce tho list, he
said, was that it contained the names
of prominent men and the disclosing of
their names might injure them and
their business. Commissioner Gala
CHER also asked what would be done if
one man presented several commissions.
Attorney Rodney said that was a quos,
tion for the court to determine.
The resolution was adopted by vote
of 3 to 2. Commissioners Scott, Mealey
and White voted in the affirmative and
Commissioners Armstrong and Gala
CHER in the negative.
The amount to be paid has not been
determined. as since the members of
the court do not know how many con
stables there were Or how many will be
able to prove service.
The court adjourned until next Tues
day, when the road commissioners ac-
counts will be audited.

Contrary to general expectation,
Holmes was convicted Of murder in the
first degree by the jury in Philadel-
phia, Saturday evening. The prevail
ing impression was that the common
wealth had failed to establish case
sufficient TO warrant this verdict, but
the jury thought otherwise. District
Attorney Graham was also positive that
the proof no had submitted to the jury
was ample to warrant this verdict. 1t
has been shown, however, that Holmes
was such deliberate, red handed MUIR
derer, that there will be few to raise a
protest against the verdict rendered
by the jury in the Philadelphia court.
