aim has been to give as much useful in

With this in view. where noun. adjectlv"
and verb are all obviously connected in
meaning usually one only has been in
serted. The volume will thus be found
to contain the meaning OF very many be
more words than il processes to explain.
TO those who already have Il diction-

Who VIII the Judges Be?

DOVER, Del, June There is much
speculation over what action Governor
Tunnel will take in regard to the retire
ment Of at least one of the Democratic
Judges at present on the Bonch and the
selection of two Republicans.
This ho must do before Thursday, when
the new Constitution takes effect and tho
reorganization of the Judiciary becomes
necessary. Under the new law the Gov
crror appoints the entire Judiciary for u
term of twelve years, but of the five law
Judges two are to be Republicans. The
four now on tho bench are Democrats, and
one will not be re.appointcd. The retired
judge is to receive $500 per annum for
five years.
Opinions vary as to who will be retired,
and some say that two of the present
Judges will not DO reappointed, Those
who so claim mention William H. Boyce,
of Georgetown, present Secretary of State.
for one of tho vacancies. Charles F. Rich'
ards, Of Sussex, and William Q Spruance,
Of New Castle, are most prominently
named as the Republican appointecs:

morrow when 1t is probable some a2titl

The Strangest Dinner.

Perhaps the most remarkable dinner
on record was that given by an antiquary
named Goebel, in tho city of Brussels.
At the dinner were apples that ripened
more than 1900 years ago, bread made
from wheat grown before the children Of
Israel passed through the Red Sea, and
spread with butter that was made when
Elizabeth was Queen Of England.
The repast was washed down with wine
that was old when Columbus was playing
with the boys of Genoa.
The apples were from an carthorn jar
taken from the ruins Of Pompcii. The
wheat was taken from chamber in one
of tho pyramids, the butter from q stone
shelf. in on old well in Scotland, where
for several centuries it had lain in an
earthern crock in icy water, and the wine
was recovered from an old vault in the
city Of Corinth.
There were six guests at the table, and
each had mouthful Of the bread and q
teaspoonful of the wine, but was por.
mitted to help himself b6untifully to tho
butter, there being several pounds of it.
Tho apple jar held about two.thirds Of o
gallon. The fruit was sweet and as fine.
ly favored as If it had been preserved but
q few months.
