MORE CONSTITUTIONAL BLUM
DERING.

DERING.
The Every Evening boasted that it
was the first paper in the state to print
the new Constitution, and, granting
that its boast is well-founded, we think
that 1t would be a good thing for some
one connected with the editorial de-
partment of that paper to read what it
printed.
Not long ago it had spasm of fear
lest the General Assembly should enact
a pool-selling law and obtained no re-
lief until we called its attention to the
fact that the provisions OF the new Con-
stitution specifically prohibited all
such legislation.
Now it is worrying over the lieuten-
ant-governor, and the Morning News is
sharing its uneasiness. We wish to in
form them that lieutenant-governor
will not be elected until 1900, and that
his pay will not be less than So day.
He will preside over the Senate and
make not less than $500 for each regu-
lar session of sixty days, not to men
tion pay for attending executive ses-
sions, and meetings OF the Board of
Pardons.
We call the attention of our contem-
poraries to section 10, Of article 3, OF
the Constitution, entitled Executive. -
II is as follows:
Section 10. lieutenant-governO
shall be chosen at the same time, in the
same manner. for the same term, and
subject to the same provisions as the
governor; he shall possess the same
qualifications OF eligibility for office as
the governor; he shall be president Of
the Senate, but shall have no vote un
less the Senate be equally divided.
THE acknowledgements while act
ing us president of the Senate, or as ,
member of the Board of Pardons, when
ever attending the sessions of salt
board, shall receive for his services tn,
same compensation per day as tn
speaker of the House of Representa-
tives.'
Section 20 gives the order Of success
sion:
Section 20. In case the persol
elected governor shall die or becOm
disqualified before the commencement
OF his term Of Office, or shall refuse t
take the same, or IN case OF lne TtnloNe
OF the governor from Office, or of hi
death, resignation, or inability to di:
charge the powers and duties Of IN
said office, the same shall devolve o
the acknowledgements; and in case {
removal, death, resignation, or inabi
ity Of both the governor and lieutenan
governor, the secretary of state or
there be none, or in case Of his remova
death, resignation or inability, the
the encouragement, or, if there
none. or in the case of his removi
death, resignation or inability, then u
president pro tempcre of the Senate,
if there be none, or in the case of b
removal. death, resignation, or inah
ity. then the speaker Of the House
Representatives shall act as govern
until the disability of the governor
acknowledgement is removed, or
governor shall be duly elected al
qualified
Thus it viii be seen that no lieute
ant-governor can be elected until l9l
and that, in event Of the death or resi-
nation of Governor Tunnel, James

CUPID laughs AT FATHER T

Ex-Levy Court Commissioner Sereck
L. Shallcross. OF near Odessa, and Mrs
Eliza A. Robinson. Of Montgomery
county. Pa. will be married at O'Clock
this evening in the old Shailcross man
sion, in st. Georges hundred, in the
presence of a large number of persons
The fact that the groom is 80 years
old and the bride 79 years old lends the
event unusual interest.
About 60 years ago Mr.. Shallcross
lived in Montgomery county, Pa, and
at that time he and Mrs Robinson,
then a girl of 19. were warm personal
friends. and many persons believed that
the friendship would ripen into love
and eliminate in marriage But they
drifted apart, Mr.. Shallcross coming to
Delaware. Both married, and a few
years ago the one lost his wife and the
other her husband. The thoughts Of
both travelled the backward path and
kindly recOllections of loves first
dream were awakened. Several months
ago Mr.. Shallcross and Mrs. Robinson
met again. The spark of affection was
famed into life. Mr. EhallcrOss pro-
posed and was accepted. He pressed for
an early marriage and his request was
acceded to. AS it was his desire that
the wedding should take place in their
future home the bride-elect came to
Delaware several days ago, and since
then has been the recipient of the
warmest attentions of the family and
friends of her lover of sixty years ago.
Mr.. Shallcross is one of the most
prominent men in st. Georges hundred,
and earlier in life he was one of its
leading and most prosperous farmers.
He is a Democrat. and served four
terms in the Levy Court. One of his
sons is ex-Recorder of Deeds James 7.

JAPAN's QUARREL WITH HAWAII.

JAPANS QUARREL WITH HAWAII.
The refusal of Hawaii to make any
indemnity for the exclusion of the inn
migrants taken to Honolulu by the
steamship Shinshu Maru, or to make
any change hereafter in the policy
adopted in that affair and in the case of
the Kinai Maru forces a direct issue
with Japan.
The controversy turns on a very few
points Hawaii takes the impregnab.e
ground, which she finds fortified in ac-
tual practice by the history of our own
! legislation. that a country has the right
to regulate and restrict immigration.
Japan does not dispute this general
principle, but holds, first, that the ac-
tual laws passed violate Hawaii's
| treaty with her. and. secondly, that IN
The instance for which indemnity was
\ demanded the laws were enforced with
undue harshness. amounting to injus

AFTER QUEEN ANNE's SHERIFF

Cambridge, Md, July 22.-Judge
Lloyd filed an order in the Circuit Court
for Dorchester county, at Cambridge,
yesterday, signed by Judges Page and
Holland, and himself, commanding
Sheriff James l.. WOoleyhand, of Queen
Anne county, to show cause on Monday
next why he should not be adjudged in
contempt for not enforcing the SEN
tence of the court as imposed on b.
Palmer Heating at the April term
While Sheriff WoOleyhand is not within
the first judicial district he is regarded
as the executive officer of the Dorches-
ter court so far as enforcing its judg-
ment in this case is concerned. The
July term begins in Cambridge on Mon
day and 4 full bench will be in attend
ance. Should Sheriff Wooleyhand be
adjudged in contempt he will probably
be amorced, though the court could alsC
include Imprisonment as part of the
penalty. The complaint against him
will likely be fully investigated.

St. Andrews COnsecratcd.

St. Andrews Episcopal Church, situ-
ated at Eighth and shipley streets, was
consecratcd last night, the parish having
paid the mortgage which has rested
upon the church for the last seven years.
st. Andrews Church was established
n t he year 1928 7 he Dio-
cese Of De ware, at that time
had no bishop, and the edilice was con-
sccrated by Bishop White, of Pennsyl-
vania. At that time Eighth street was
called Kent street.
In January, 1910, the building was
completely destroyed by fire. A petition
asking the public to aid the parish, which
at that time was very small, was publish
ed. In October, 1910, the church was
rebuilt. This time, it consccrated by
Bishop Anderdonk, of Pennsylvania.
Bishop Lee was offered the rectorship
of the church, which position he accepted
and held for forty-iive years. In the
1854, the church was enlarged one-third
its former size, and in the year 1880, it
was again enlarged.
The clergyman present last night were
Bishop Coleman, Archdeacon Hall,
Rev.'s Dunlap, Walker and Horn, of this
city, and Rev.'s Powell, Wright and
Bodine, NJ. d., of Philadelphia DR..
