Castle. He is boarding here. the other
mombsrs of his family are boarding in

homo district in New Castle.
The Democrats want freedom of the bal.
lot and wish to deprive MIR. Blackburne
of the right of franchise. He has been
notified to appear in Wilmington on next
Saturday and show cause why his name
should not be stricken from tho list of
qualified voters because he makes his homo
in Now Castle. Hs has no home liz Will
mington. His household goods are stored
and New Castle is his home. Freedom of
the ballot indeed. From such hypocrtes
deliver us. Any excuse will do with the
Democrats this time to debar Republican
from voting.

death of Mrs. John Pedrick, Of Trenton,
N. j. Mr.. and Mrs. Pedrick removed to

Reasons Why IIo VIII Not Accept tho
London Mission.

London Mission.
Washington. Sept. 15,-It is under
stood that the president has invited
Senator Hoar. the senior senator from
Massachusetts, to accept the Ion1 N
mission, to succeed Mr.. Hay. While a
definite response has not yet been re-
ceived, it is gathered that the senator
probably will decline, on the ground
that he would be more servicaable to
the country in his present position.
while the delicate health Of Mrs. Hoar
renders a change of habit and climate
unadvisable at her time of life.
1t was rumored that In the event of
the acceptance of this embassy by
Senator Hoar, Secretary Long would be
a candidate for the succession as sena-
tor from Massachusetts,. There is rea-
son to believe that the secretary has
made no movement in that direction,
but is entirely content with his present
pest,

Paris. Sept. ia semi official note
says: IAN the statements of the news

This is interpreted to mean that there
will be no presidential crisis. 1t Is
now taken for granted that General
Zurllnden, minister for war, will resign
on Saturday, all the efforts of his col
leagues to persuade him to accept re-
vision having failed. When General
Eurlnden's successor is appointed he
will find the court of cessation already
set in motion for revision.
