NET AN HONEST MAN.

William Mailer, a bar-keeper Of Sec
ond and Harrison streets, had an ex-
perience in Jersey City he will not
soon forget. He took his niece, Miss
Kate Mailer, to the City of Water, and
upon arriving there found that his wal
let containing $500 was missing. He
searched everywhere for it, when a
man, seeing his predicament, asked
him what was the matter, at the same
time handing him the wallet. The
man said he found it on a seat in the
depot. Mr. Mailer thanked the gen.
tleman for his honesty, and then placed
the money in his boot for safe keep

RUNNING A CHANNEL.
One Reason Why Philadel-
phians Have a Grudge
AGAINST THE DELAWARE SHORE
FEAR THAT BALTIMORE MAY IN
sIST UPON A SHIP CANAL, WHICH
WOULD MAKE IT THE LIVER
POOL OF AMERICA.

POOL OF AMERICA.
Theexposeofthesp spiteful work now be-
ing done in the Delaware river by certain
government officials, made in the
Evening Journal Of yesterday by a
prominent member of Wilmington's
Board of Trade, has been Anticipated
for some time. People living along the
river and thoroughly familiar with
present affairs of improvement" have
made several attempts to stay the
fiasco.
Early In the spring a New Castle
Evening Journal reporter became ac-
quainted with the fact that all the mud
and rock dug from Schooner Ledge
below Chester was being dumped In
the Delaware channel above Delaware
City. A committee OF fishermen com
pA4ined bitterly that the Philadelphia
authorities were running a drift for
shad which gave several hundred Della
wareans a livelihood.
Owing to the set OF tide being di-
rectly across the bar, thrown in tnat
direction by the so-called jetty on New
Jerseys side, the material placed on
the ridge called Middle Ground bar
VIII, OF necessity be carried and de-
The action Of this current upon the
western bank shows this statement 10
be too true. The current strikes al
most at right angles with the bank.
The question was asked one of the
many inspectors" why this material
was not placed on the lower side of this
jetty where a bar is now plainly yisi-
Bile at less than low tide. The answer
was:
In the opinion Of the engineers. a
large percentage Of the mud is swept
by the action of the current into the
eastern channel, which channel at
present is the only one used in the
passage OF vessels TO and from the port
OF Philadelphia.
Following the said course Of reason
ing, 1t is difficult to understand why
one channel would fill up and the other
not. 1t is a poor rule" said one
waterman, that doesn't work both
ways. Can IL be possible that the ma
rine guardians of the city OF Brotherly
Love have looked so far into the future
that they have seen in their prophetic
souls a ship canal connecting the two
bays via Delaware City and Back
creek? Such a waterway has been rec
ommended by government engineers
after numerous surveys of other routes
to be the only available one for the
long-propOsed ship canal. Such
Ia canal as proposed would
play havoc with the commerce
Of Philadelphia and make the City OF
Baltimore the Liverpool Of America"
Thus il seems there is indeed a
method in the carriage Of mud and
rock for miles to dump IL in very
available place for obstructing the
channel and giving a "black eye" to a
ship canal such as has been mentioned.
The average depth Of the western
channel is twenty-four feet at low
water at present How long It will re-
main so will be determined by the
amount of Pennsylvania mud deposited
there.
Senator Gray was appealed to by the
fishermen early I'm the spring, but they
claim that the appeal 70 him was made
in vain. The shad fishing is now prac-
tically ruined there, and the fishermen
are anxious to know to whom they are
indebted for the curtailing of their
rights.

THE CLIMATE AND CROPS.

Willis l.. Moore, chief of theWeather
Bureau, has sent out the following re-
port of the climate and crops of east
ern Maryland and Delaware for the
week just ended: All farm work has
gone rapidly forward during the past
week. The recent rains have put the
ground in excellent condition for seed
ing, and this work is rapidly going
forward. Pastures have improved con-
siderably. Late planted potatoes have
turned out rather poorly. and the to-
mato crop is also short on account of
the dry season recently terminated To-
matoes Of rather an inferior quality
are being shipped 20 canneries. Some
corn remains 10 be cut. but the main
portion of the crop has been harvested
with good results.

GET APPETITE.
If You Don't You WillNeY-
Gr Be Strong or Healthu,

Appetite is one thing that you can't
afford to be without, for without it your
health, strength and comliness flies out
Of the window.
Poor appetite means weak stomach.
starved body, sick individual Good appe-
tite the opposite.
Poor appetite is a sign that your stom-
ach is too weak for digestion. You can
aid it with the Shaker Digestive Cordial
When your stomach is able to digest all
the food that your body needs, you will
have a good appetite. Not before.
Good food, well digested, means strength
and long, healthy life. Undigested food
creates poison which affects the whole
body, and may kive you headache, dizzi-
ness, nausea, constipation, hatulence.
languor, weakness, mental depression
stomach-ache, fever, nervousness, offen-
sive breath, anaemia, rheumatism, etc
All these disorders will be relieved IL
YOU will take Shaker Digestive Cordial.
1t is a pure vegetable digestive and
natural invigorator, which aids the stom-
ach, purifies the system of the poisons
of indigestion and makes you strong, fat
and healthy.
Shaker Digestive Cordial does not act
on the liver but on the undigested food
in the stomach. 1t cures indigestion or
biliousness without irritating the liver
or any of the internal organs.

OUR DEFENsELEss COAST.
We should Get Ready to Fight BE-
fore Inviting War.

Savannah, March editor Morning
News: heartily approve of your editorial
this morning concerning the action of
congress towards foreign states while this
country is totally unprepared for its legit-
Innate result in war.
If England and Spain should strike
hands against US. or if either, encouraged
by the other, should become aggressive,
the brave western statesmen would look
down from the serene nights of the p cky
Mountains upon Savannah, Charleston
and the other cities of the Atlantic coast
burning and sacked by Spanish ruffians,
with compliment feeling, remembering
that the sacrifice was for the Monroe doc
trine and Cuban independence. The in
terror American legislator would valiantly
offer up the defenseless coast for the
sake of principle, in the same unselfsh
spirit with which a man would lose his
mother-in-laW.
1t is high time for the commercial bodies
and the people of the eastern cities to
protest against, and to oppose organized
measures against such mad chauvinism.
