meeting Thursday evening. A. S. Reed
presided and the attendance was large.
A letter from Gen. j. Parke Postles,
who was elected president at the last
meeting, was read. He stated that IL
would be impossible for him to serve
because OF the pressure of private
business. His declination was accepted
and e. T. Warner, John @. Farra, Will
liam Lawton and Edgar M. Hopes
were nominated for the office. Messrs.
Hopes and Farra requested that their
names be withdrawn, and stating that
they would not be able to give the
time and attention that the office re.
quires Messrs, Elliott and Burrell
were appointed tellers. Mr.. Warner
was elected by majority of one vote.
Messrs Hopes and Farra were APP
pointed committee to ascertain
whether Mr.. Warner would accept.
He was communicated with by tele-
cept. second election was held and
Mr.. Lawton was unanimously elected.
Messrs. Maher and Raynard were ap-
pointed a committee TO inform Mr..
Lawton of his election, which duty
venient.
A resolution authorizing the presi-
dent to appoint a committee to confer
with the railroad companies whose
lines pass through tho city relative to
granting stop.over privileges to pas
sengers was adopted. Mr.. Mullen said
the local merchants are continually
losing trade on account of people
pntninry from, tho rt1rul ltutrf atp md
towns down the State, who are bound
for Philadelphia, not being able to stop
in Wilmington. He said he felt sure
that IL the board would take hold of
the matter and push it the request
would be granted. Mr.. Elliott said the
city had granted the railroad companies
all the privileges they asked and it
would be only fair for them to recipro-
cate. Other members spoke on the
subject.
Mr.. Mullen said the board, while it
may not have been very lively body
in point of attendance, has done some
good work. He expressed regret at the
small membership and urged the mem
bers to use their individual efforts to
increase their number. Mr.. Taylor
spoke on the same subject. He also
referred to the necessity of extending
the city to the river and said he
thought something could be done in
that respect IL the board would take
the matter in hand. Mr.. Elliott said
that would be about the only way to
start the movement going right. He
thought the city should construct a
road where business men can go out to
the river and see it and ascertain what
excellent opportunities are offered there
for business. He asked the board TO
take the initial step, and thought it
should urge the matter until road is
secured.
Several members expressed gratifica-
tion at the renewed interest that seems
about 10 be taken in the city's welfare.
They hoped the members will do all
they can to have good meetings and
accomplish good work outside.

tional Sunday-school lessons for the
last quarter, have learned much about
the cities of refuge in ancient times.
You remember that provision was made
for the man slayer, who had unwit-
tingly, or accidentally killed his fellow.
man. Certain cities were selected, and
it was to one of these the man SLAYER
was to flee for his life, or run the risk
of losing his life at the hand Of his
pursuer, usually the nearest relative of
the one who had been slain. Once
within the city, he was free man, and
could feel sense Of security to be
found in no other place. Benevolent
orders, such as 1.-THE Ancient Order Of
United Workmen, are "cities of ref
uge, in a sense, in these latter times.
But, ii seems to me, people should
remember, that as the man SLAYER had
to avail himself Of the provision made
for his safety and security, they too
must avail themselves of the ample pro-
vision made for them, if they would be
protected against the impending dan
gers of this 10Th century pace at which
we are goiHg, when, with all the i'm
provments and advantages we enjoy,
the liability to sudden death has in
creased TO an alarming extent. Our
reason and observation teach us that
the most certain thing in the world is
death, and it will likely come to each
mortal when least expected. The wise
man makes provision for the future.
Let us be wise, brethren, by an in
tensitied love an zeal for our noble
order, and induce others to join, that

Death Saves Him Fran Conviction-Patent

Special Cnrrespondenceo OF Gazette and journal
Washington, Oct. 10. The Postoffice
Department has been advised of the
death, on Monday, OF George Rupp,
manager and proprietor of the Crescent
Art Co., of Baltimore, who was under
arrest charged with using the mails for
fraudulent purposes, particulars of
which were published in EVERY Even
ing" at the time. Rupp has been a
sufferer from consumption for num-
Der of years and had long since been
given up by his physician as hope
less case. Notwithstanding his physi-
cal condition he conducted the crayon
business and succeeded in swindling a
great many people. The postoffice
inspectors secured ample evidence to
convict and the trial was set for last
Thursday, but owing to the feeble and
emaciated condition OF the prisoner,
the case was postponed for an indefi-
mite period. Death has ended the
prosecution and saved him from the
penitentiary. The thousands of photo
graphs captured by the officers will
probably be destroyed and many will
lose their highly priced pictures.
