The reasons Mr. Bradford advan.
ces for his resignation from the Re.
publican Advisory Committee pre-
sents one of the most curious phsv-
Geological states that til is badlymixed
political year has furnished. He re-.
signs because he sees evidence on
the part Of his fellow Committeeman
to unite the Republican vote of the
State and thereby secure victory.
Does Mr. Bradford object to a
united party, or if not united on his
own terms does he prefer to see
continuance Of Democratic rule 2
viii Mr.. Bradford openly claim
that Democracy in Delaware is
cleaner, Purer more observable than
chat which would result by union
Of the Republican factions ?
Would not Mr. Bradford be one
OF the elect in such case, and exert
in the Constitutional Convention the
full measure of his influence for
good?
For the sake of reforming the
gross abuse Of law and Justice in
this State and open up a new and t
liberal era in Delaware, would not
Mr. Bradford welcome any body Of
Democrats as co-adiutors and extend n
.he right hand Of fellowship to those
Wiling to assist in such a work with :

THE PNEU IN PARIS.

If you want to see real bicycling
craze you must go to Paris. A cor
respondent says that nearly everybody
in the city is now rider of the ''pneu,"
pronounced new" the French slang
name for the wheel, being an abbreYla-
ton of the word pneumatique. Parcels
are delivered from stores and shops by
messengers on two-wheel machines; all
the morning and the evening news
papers are carried from the printing
presses to stands and libraries by
wheelmen; people make visits on bicy-
cles; they go to the horse races on
them; at the theaters, the Palais de
L Industrie, the horse show, the agri-
cultural fair, the dog show, in the
Tuileries garden, at the eircuses, the
cafe concerts and the clubkouses, ETC.,
there are special sheds or platforms
wherein "pneus" are guarded while the
riders are enjoying the 'show," taking
their refreshments, or attending to
business matters.
There are actually over $4,000 bicy-
cles owned and ridden in the French
I
''cartes de circulation" issued to anna
teurs and professionals by the chief Of
police in Paris was just under AZ, 00C
for that city alone, and these permits
to ride through the streets by no means
included all persons who won machines,
as a great many keep their ''pneus"
out in the bois or near the fortiica-
tions, where they go in carriages when
they want to get their wheels out for
ride.
! But everywhere in France, in town or
in country, there are three positive
rules which bicyclists must obey, and
/ these are: There must be a signal bell
/ or whistle on every machine; at night
/ they must carry lighted lamp or Ian
/ tern; and every person on a bicycle
must keep out of the way of horses and

A PITCHFORK STUDY
TILLMAN, OF SOUTH CAROLINA,
WHO WARS FOR THE FARMER.
MISSION IN THE SENATE
He Proposes to Revolutionize Things
and Make the Country Dominate
the City-Admits Himself that His
Career Has Only Commemorative
Before the People

Benjamin Ryan Tillman, the new
senator from South Carolina. is a
wonder. Some people call him a freak.
but that is a small word to apply to
such man. The nation at large had
an opportunity to pass judgment upon
the man a few weeks ago when he
emptied a f1oodgate of vituperation
upon the head Of President Cleveland.
Tillman from all standpoints except
that Of long-distance study is uncom-
portable. AS a study he is interesting.
What his precise object in life is he
would probably have some difficulty in
explaining. He has made himself clear
on two or three points, the first of
which is to annihilate Mr.. Cleveland
politically. He wants also to bore a
few holes in the constitution Of the
United States and limit the power of
the federal government in dealing with
matters which he claims are the ex-
elusive right of individual states.
He would also like to wipe every
corporation off the face of the earth
and to pulverize the money kings of
the nation. He is an odd mixture OF
socialist ard populist. For generations
his forefathers were democrats, but if
he had the power he would smash the
democratic party to gain any one of
his ideals. He is a democrat on the

MOVING A LARGE TOWN.
Interesting Engineering Feat Contem-
plated in Northern Russia.

European engineers are much inter-
ested in the proposed removal Of an
entire town in northern Russia to a
point fOrty-three miles distant, the
houses to be transported over the
frozen surface of the river on sledges.
The city Of Kola, on the peninsula of
the same name, is now situated at the
confluence Of two rivers, the Luttojoki
and the Notosero, forming the Kola
river, about fifty miles from the Arc
tic ocean, While the rivers and the
bay below are navigable for even large
vessels, KOla is situated so far inland
that it is shut off from the sea by ice
much longer than other seapOrtS sit
uated even farther north, like Vardoe,
in Norwegian LapIand. The governor
of the province of Archangelsk, Baron
Englehadrt, to whose jurisdiction the
district of Kola belongs, has proposed
to transfer the city to a better part
nearer the mouth of Kola river.
Imperial and ministerial consent
having been given, active preparations
are now being made to transport Kola
to the new location, which affords
great advantages to navigation, and
since it is surrounded by hills which it
will take but little expense to strongly
fortify it will certainly become point
of great strategic importance. The
project is not, however, a new one.
The thing has been done on an extern
sive scale right here in the United
States. When tie MOrmons left Maui
VOC, Ill, after the killing of Joseph
Smith, they left behind them nearly
700 we1l-built frame houses clustered
together around their unfinished tenn
pie, the ruins Of which, standing boldly
out on a promontory, is one of the
most picturesque features Of the upper
Mississippi river scenery. German
grape growers came in and settled up
the place. They wanted the hillsides
for their vines. The houses were sold
to spectators, who moved them all in
the course of three winters over the
frozen basin of the river to point
twelve miles above on the Iowa shore
and founded what is now one of the
most prosperous of western towns
Fort Madison. The houses were set
on rude sledges and drawn by oXen.-I

Tillman has ONLY hean aotiveIv irr

Tillman has only been actively I'M
politics since 1886. His debut wax
made at meeting of the state agrf-
cultural board at Bennettsviile, where
he made a ragged and disconnected
speech in favor of certain reforms.
he was laughed at for his pains. He
wanted a college where the rural
youths could be educated and fitted
for agricultural pursuits. 1t was not
until March of 1890 that Tillman was
heard Of outside of his own state.
Then the farmers nominated him for
governor and he was elected after one
OF the hottest campaigns in the history
OF the country. His unique liquor
dlspensaries and his row with the fed
eral government about railroads made
him, for the time being, the most
taIked-of man in the country.
Tillman says his career is only COM
menclng. Ii that is so, the country has
more than little excitement in sight.

Mr.. and Mrs. Atwood resided in sew
eral apartments on the west side of
Central park. In one Of these their
child was born. 1t was named Charles
Bowler Atwood, Jr. The Atwoods
lived in a cottage at White Plains in
1928, and part OF 1884 They moved
back to New York in 1884. Not long
after their return the little boy died.
Mrs Atwood became almost insane
from grief. Brooding over the death
Of the child affected her so strangely
that at last she had a disagreement
with her husband. They parted in
1885, and soon afterward she went
upon the comic opera stage. She was
La Veuve Frimcsse in De Wolf Hop
per's Wang company. and she sang in
The Great PanjaDdrum and other light
operas. She is very well known
among the stage folk, and all who
knew her speak highly of her Miss
Singer, as she has called herself ever
since she separated from her husband
went to Atlanta with comic opera
company about six weeks ago. Three
days before his death Mr.. Atwood.

message was forwarded to the south.
but did not reach her in time. Marion
Singer fastened to Chicago, but when
she arrived her husband was dead.
She has remained in Chicago since to
attend the settlement of her husbands
estate
A dispatch from Worcester, Mass.
says: Marion Singer came here De-
cember %, registered at the Bay State
house as Mrs. G. B. Atwood, and the
next day attended the funeral of Ar
chitect c. B. Atwood of Chicago, at
the house of his father, David Atwood,
in MilIbury. There she claimed to be
the widow OF the dead man. The pres
ence of the alleged wife of Architect
Atwood at the funeral has been as
siduously guarded by the family, but
the father admitted it yesterday. Mr.
Atwood, the father, told a reporter to-
day that up to the time of the funeral
he never heard it intimated that his
son was married. He cOrresponded
with his son at intervals, and his son
was at Millbury two years ago, but
never intimated in any way that he
was or ever had been married. Mr..
Atwood could not credit the report
that his son had left an estate of
100000 to 100000. He thinks he
could have had at most but few
thousand dollars. He says that if the
woman proves that she was married 10
his son he will contest no claim
against her"
