FROM THE ADDICKS CAMP.
REGULAR REPUBLICANS SAID
TO BE PROMISING FEDERAL.
PLUMS TO HOLD THEIR MEN
TOGETHER.

BLUMS III HOLO IHElh MEN
TOGETHER.
"The regular Republicans as they
style themselves, are using the Federal
patronage dodge in their efforts to hold
their men in line" said an Addicks
lieutenant to an Evening Journal re-
porter this morning. There is not a
post office in Kent or Sussex county
that has not. been promised to from two
to three men. The janitorship of the
Dover post office alone has been prom
ised to six different colored men in re-
turn for their support of the county
ticket. In Sussex county the principal
dispensers of this Federal patronage
are Cornelius p. Swayne, of Bridge
vile. and George E. Smith, of Laurel.
Smith is the man who offered Mr.. Ad-
dicks a foreign ambassadorship if he
would withdraw from the senatorial
fight two years ago. In the Eighth
ward of Wilmington alone the regulars
have been forced to organize three diff
ferent clubs to keep their colored
|. voters in line. There are the Hugh G.
Browne Club and the Frederick Doug
| lass Club. and another. 1ney are held
together by promises.
I'm reference to the electoral ticket
the National Committee has said
within the past ten days that it is as
important that a sound money Repub-
lican United States senator and con-
gresham be elected in Delaware as
that the electors be successful. No
so many days ago General James H
Wilson and ex-senator Higgins wrote
TO several members Of the Nationa
Committee asking them to use theii
| influence to have the committee come
into Delaware and interfere in the fac
tional fight, using their influence
against Addicks. They refused to do 1t

We want no Bardsley business in
Delaware. Edward Clark and his wife
the DUPONT conspirators. were given a
full and fair trial and convicted. The
community is safer with them in New
Castle Jail. where they now are. We
cannot think that Governor Watson
will so far forget himself as to pardon
two persons who played such promi-
nent part in such a dangerous and
damnable plot

There is nothing new or surprising
in Senator Gray's speech. In it he re-
affirms his adherence to the gold
standard; his belief in tariff for reve-
nue. only; his support of President
CleYeland's administration and the
state ticket; and his respect for the
Supreme Court OF the United States
and the right of the government to
protect its property from lawless per-
sons. His argument against the free
coinage OF silver at ratio OF 16 to /
was scholarly and. to many of his
hearers convincing. Mr.. Gray stands
just where he has always stood, and
doubtless where he will always stand.
Those who know him best are not sur
prised that he stands true TO his hon
est convictions although, by so doing,
he permits thousands OF his former
party associates to drift away from
him.

WHAT The GLUE MEN SAY.
THE WATER WILL BE IMPREG-
MATED WITH LIME AND ONLY
HIDE TRIMMINGS USED.

An Evening Journal reporter called
Company repeated to them the sub
stance of the article on the New Cas-
tie page yesterday, relative to pollution
of Nonesuch creek and asked them for
an explanation.
THE water which will go into the
Christiana will be lime water" said
one OF them. I'VE do not use horns
and hoofs and things of that kind. The
only morocco refuse we use is the hide
trimmings. Most of the water we use is
in our condensing plant. Most people
have an erroneous impression regard
ing the character of a glue factory
They confound it with a fertilizer fac
tory, and there is no similarity what

HOW MRS. WHITNEY WAS NAMED

Now that al the world is talking
about the marriage of ex-Secretary
Whitney it is interesting to know that
his bride received her name in a pretty
and unusual way. At the time of her
birth, her father, DR.. Frederick May,
then practicing his profession in Wash
ington, was physician to the convent OF
Georgetown, and such was the friend
ship existing between himself and the
young students of the school that when
the little baby came he granted them
the privilege Of selecting its name. II
was an exciting event and the list OF
considered appellations grew marvel
ously long and romantic. Edith Sybil
was finally deeidedupOn byvote, and that
is how Mrs. Whitney came w her rstory-
book name.

ABOUT AUTHORS

It may not be generally known that
certain of Stevenson's friends stood as
originals for some of his characters in
The Wreckers. For example Jim Pink
erton is believed to be no other than
s. s. Mcclure who syndicsted the
South Sea letter, and also placed sew
eral of his shorter novels. Loudon
Dodd, in the same novel, is free por-
trait of Will Fl. Low, the painter, one
of Stevenson's dearest friends.
An interesting book of translations
from Burns has been published in
Glasgow, from which it appears thst
the poets more popular lyrics have
been translated into all the tongues of
modern Europe. In the French ver-
sion it Is odd to find "John Anderson,
my jo," rendered "John Anderson,
mon amoreux, John," and in German
"Hans Andersen, mein Hans" "Ths
Scots Wha Haze" appears in Latin. On
account of the metrical resemblances
the German versions are the best.
Amalie Rives Chanler wrote her
first story to make life worth living
for friend. This friend, a woman,
was bright but fearfully ugly. Amalie
Rives discovered, when she was in
Paris, that the French surgeons could
change the unhappy woman's hideous
countenance. But 1t would cost $4,000.
So the gifted young Virginisn wrote
According to st. John and received
$4,000 for it's serial appearance in
magazine. She turned the check over
to the surgeons, who we're successful
in their operations.
When She Stoops to Conquer was in
rehearsal, a little more than 100 years
ago, Goldsmith, who had rich brogue,
took great pains to impress on the
actors how he wished to have each part
performed. On the opening night he
was amazed to find Charles Marlow
presented as an Irishman. The actor
(Gardener), when demonstrated with,
sought to Justify himself by asserting
that he npoke his lines as nearly as he
could according to the authors in
structions, only he did not give them
quite 80 strong brogue.
Sardou has method. He rises at 6
and writes till noon. As coon as he
enters his study he locks the door and
is disturbed by nobody except the bar
ber, who comes every day to shave him.
He breakfasts at IL with his wife and
children, and eats like cormorant
After breakfast stroll, a cigar and

actors, actresses, managers, directors
everybody by turns and no one
long. They come from all points
of the compass, chiefly London and
New York Then he writes his letters,
dimes at $50, smokes another cigar and
goes to bed at 10. Sardou is a king in
his own world. He produces" his own
pieces and won't alter anything he has
written. "Not line-not word-not
syliable!" said Sardou when it was
suggested to change Thermidor. He
even decides on the color of the act
resses' dresses. "If did not" he says,
"they would all wear red to attract at
tentton to themselves, and this actu-
ally happened once at the Odeon."
