delight of the crowd
As the delegates disem barked they were
cheered agaia and again and were hidden
right royal welcome to the convention
city. Then they formed in twos and, shell
tered by umbrellas from the pelting rain,
marched up Olive street to Broadway and
down Broadway to the Southern Hotel.
The soul-stirring music of the big band
drew a great concourse to the sidewalks on
Broadway, and the CaiiforniaIs marching
bravely in the mud were cheered at every
step. Flags and streamers fluttered' from
the tall buildings on each side, giving the
street holiday appearance.
When the parade arrived opposite the
courthouse, Count Hacquette, who has a
brother in the liquor business in San Fran
cisco. ran into the street, hat in hand, re-
gardless of the rain and shouted: "Hurray
for California.
The cheers were given with viii by the
crowd.
There was so great jam in front of the
hotel entrance that it was with difficulty
that the band was able to force its way
into the building, but when it got inside,
still continuing to play ''HoW Annie Lau-
rie gave Mckinley her promise true"
there was burst of cheering.
The grand staircase was cleared by the
police and the delegation marched into
the California headquarters, where they
received the congratulations of friends.
Among those waiting to welcome them
were U. S. Grant of San Diego, Congress
man Grove L. Johnson and S. G. Hillborn.

of this most progressive firm to offer to the
fifteen most popular school terchers of Phia-
delpeia and vicinity n free vacation tour
through the principal countries of Europe
during the coming summer.
All expenses of sightseeing, travelling
hotels. fees, and sundries will be borne by the
firm-in fact, the lucky teachers will have
nothing to do except TO keep their eyes wide
open, and profit by the unequalled oppor
tunities thus offered.
From information furnished by member
of the firm, it is the intention to have the
party visit the principal cities and sections of
England, Holland. Belgium, Germany. Swift
zerland and France, including an extended
tour of the Rhine and the Alps, visiting the
Educational Exhibition to be held at Geneva
in which all progressive. teachers will be
deeply interested, and also devoting some
time to the National Exposition in Berlin,
wherein the resources and progress of the
Fatherland will be shown.
All details of this colossal scheme will be
made public in IL short time. 1t is safe to say
that the direct good Of such an undertaking
Is lneStllGible 10 INe fortunate fifteen, while
the indirect educational results must be of
incalculable benefit to all scholars entrusted
to their care.
While the whole party will be under the
guidance of representative of the firm. pro
visions have already been made by which the
services OF experienced couries in the various
countries have been secured. In this manner
every portion OF the ground to be covered
will be thoroughly studied, and without that
loss of time incident to most foreign JOURNEYS
All in ALL the idea is one that will commend
itself to the good sense Of all investigators,
and it is certain that the announcement ofthe
details will be eagerly looked for by thousands
nay by millions, for every family where there
are any children will be apt to discuss the
matter most avorably.
1t will be interesting to all Delawareans to
know that one school teaci er from this state
is TO be included in the party, Of course, the
chances are ten to one that he or she will hail

he did not think the wedding ought to take

resign from the army if father insisted upon
it. This was Just the time of the opening

COURTING A QUAKER MAID.

The later assemblies OF Annapolis
Marlborough, and Chestertown were hardly
more Gin vogue" than the yearly meetings
of the Eastern Shore Quakers. Their
curious. quaintness and the picturesque
contrast they presented to the radiant attire
and lihertine manners of the worlds
people, who minuetted and coquetted in
manorhouses, and caroused and ruilled in
cockpits and bowling courts, drew Roman
lists and English Catholics to the doors
of their sober conventicle, and filed its
leafy approaches with profane chariots and
chairs, and prancing steeplechasers and
side, saddled palfreys, So it happened that
to the yearly meeting held at Third
Haven, near Talbot Court house, year
100, there came by opposite ways,
through groups of booths erected by the
graceless and irreverent for the sale of
trumpery and tipplc, a Qaker maiden,
mounted on u pillion behind her father,
and two plumed and rapiered cavaliers
gaily curveting. The wimpled maid
whose overcoming charms still bloom i'll
tradition, was Sarah Covington of Somer-
set and the pranciug cavaliers were the
brothers Edward and Philemon Lloyd
sons of Madam Henrietta Maria aforesaid.
Immediately the pretty lids, witt, sudden
equal passion, loved the winipled maiden,
and yearned for her; and each conceived a
cunning purpose, proper, to the country
and the time, and shrewdly held his
peace.
When the meeting was over, the brothers
each taking his cunning scheme in hand
mounted and galloped away, taking
different ways; and they rode hard, laugh
ing as they rode, for JOY of their boysh
artitice. After lingering for while in
places remote from the highway where there
was no fear of discovery by any chance
acquaintance, and so that slower Quaker
folks might have time to regain their
homes, they rode on into Somerset-and
met at their charmers gate. First they
swore then they blushed, and then they
laughed loud and long. Phil said, Let
her be for whichever, you or |, did see her
first and Ned, the elder and the heir,
assented. Then said Phil, "No sooner
had taken my place in the meeting than |
beheld the girl and loved her" And Ned
said, II passed the night before the meet
ing at the Peach Blossom farm; and at the
foot of the hill, turning into the gate at the
water mill, saw this girl on pillton be-
hind her father. and they inquired the
way to the meeting house; and loved her.
Then Phil rode back to Talbot, and Ned
dismounted at the gate, and led his horse
to the porch. Thus in 1903 Sarah Coving-
ton became the wife OF Ned, and mistress
OF Wye House She it was who in 1888
built with English brick the house of
'Readbourne' in Queen Anne's county
