ON Returning From Tour.
G. Frank Mynich, a clerk in the
Office of the City Engineering Depart
ment, and Daniel Todd recently re-
turned from cycling tour, which
took them through the cities between
Wilmington and New York and also
points of interest in Northern New
Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania. The
route was selected with a view TO
pleasure, and a more enjoyable outing
could not have been taken.
During the entire trip the young
men jotted down everything which
interested them, and brought home
with them, in addition to the notes,
sketches and photographs of places and
things they had seen, and ever since
their return they have been engaged In
compiling full report Of the journey,
the result being that Mr.. Mynich has
turned out tpye-written book Of
about 100 pages, fully illustrated and
handsomely bound.
The book contains the most minute
details OF the trip, and the illustra-
tions add much to the interest 1t
can be referred to with great deal OF
pleasure by the young tourists, who,
by reading it, can recall readily the
enjoyment which they derived from
their vacations of 1896.

Sickles, the speaker was Democrat,
but he said that as soon as he heard
the Chicago platform he decided that
he could not support it. He consid
cred patriotism before party. He will
now work to defeat the Chicago capdi-
dates, and after they are beaten will be
willing to talk on the best methods OF
raising the revenues.
He spoke of the patriotism Of the
Delaware and Pennsylvania soldiers in
the late war, and said that their dead
were side by side at Gettysburg and
the two States should always be very
close together. Delaware and Penn
sylvania stood side by side on July 3D.,
1863, and again Pennsylvania calls upon
Delaware to stand by her side on
November 3, 1896.
The speaker allued to the money
issue and spoke on the same line as
Gen. Sicllles.
Congressman Willis also made an
address, in which be explained his
position and dwelt upon the issues OF
the campaign.
Gubernatorial Candidate Hoffecker
was also called upon to speak. In
opening his address he made special
reference to the occasion and congratu-
lated the Delaware veterans on their
part in the civil war. lie was very
brief, and at the conclusion OF his
remarks the meeting terminated with
cheers for Mel lley and Hobart and
the whole ticker.
Gen. Sickles returned to New York
on the 8. OF train.

there that upon the death OF the
former chief examiner, Major William

March, he was chosen for the po-
sition, the appointment being made in
June.
He was favorably impressed with the
young men who presented themselves
for examination in this city, but
thought it rather remarkable that
there were not more than seven.
The civil service extends to nearly
every branch of the government, and
includes nearly every trade ami pro-
fession,
