As she my cycle led.
So wondrous fair was she.
l asked her to be mine;
As she glanced up at me

Beside the meadow bars.
As we stood lingering there,
Here eyes were like the stars.
In radiance wondrous fair.
You're all the world 10 me-

a thrill of ecstasy

Love led us all the way.
As we turned home again.
Our hearts were light and gay.
The world was blissful then.
Though shadows crossed the sky.
No gloom our hearts could know,
True bliss is ever nigh
When hearts are blended So,

1t is now reported1 that Senior Sagas-
ia would favor a plan for selling the
Philippines to the United States for a
few hundred millions of dollars. This
idea has at least virtue of novelty,
but Uncle Sam is not now engaged in
the business of buying islands which
he can have for the taking. if he makes
up his mind that he really wants them.

The Eden fair which has had pros
porous and interesting, though modest
existence for a few years past, has
secured the attention of summer resi-
dents of Bar GHarbor and vicinity, and
great things are promised as result.
plan is on foot, it is said, to make
the Eden fair a sort of grand finale Of
Bar HarbOr'S summer season. The
idea is to hold the fair earlier in the
season when the summer visitors can
exhibit their stock. There naturally
will be great rivalry among them to
show up their horses. Coaching pa
rades such as are not seen in the State
will be in order. There is a great
future for the Eden fair if the plans
now seriously discussed materialize.

ADJUSTMENTS,

THEATRICAL PRIZE TONIGHT.
The long-sought theatrical prize, a
second "Old Homestead" Tho Sun
shine of Paradise Alley" will have Its
first presentation in Wilmington to-
night at the Grand Opera House. IL
the authors, Denman Thompson and
George w. Ryer, had any misgivings
about the reception of their work by
the public, thinking, perhaps, that
dealing, as 1t does, with New York
life, it might not interest the people as
well as their earlier work on New
England life, as depicted In the "Old
Homestead" they were dispelled by
the extraordinary patronage accorded
the piece in New York and Boston, in
which cities the piece enjoyed long
runs. There is a sparkling stream or
pure and simple humor running though
the piece that could not do otherwise
than win the hearts of all. There Is
no one who will not be touched by
the motherly interest that the Widow
McNally takes in Sunshine, the hero
inc OF the play, who comforts the sick,
helps the struggling, and reproves the
erring and wayward. 1t is noteworthy
that the play has received the sanction
of the New York and Boston pulpit
and Sunday Schools, because Of It's
lpurity and wholesomeness. Besides the
cast, the ear will be enchanted with ex-
cellent music seldom heard in any
lother entertainment.

NEGOTIATIONS PENDING FOR

The people Of New Castle will be
enabled to go 10 Wilmington by sin
another route before many months roll
by il present negotiations between the
directors Of the New Castle, Newport
and Wilmington Electric Railway, and
certain others ae consummated, which
event seems more than probable at
present.
Engineer Carswell is to begin this
week the work of surveying the route
over which the lines OF the new road
win pass. The road will begin at
point near, or at, Third and Delaware
streets. and run out Third to Harmony
thence to Fifth and by way of South to
the Newport road. Continuing through
Newport, it will enter Wilmington by
way of Maryland avenue. This route
is but three-fourths Of mile longer
than the one now used by the New
Castle Electric Company, and on 40
count Of there not being 50 much traf-
fic on the Newport road, and also, be-
cause the bridge which will be crossed
is only open at the most once a month,
the time In reaching Wilmington will
be little less than that now occupied
by the present road.
Although the directors say that all
the stock has not asL yet been sub
scribed for, yet they Will not wait 1ol
that. but are now making negotiations
with certain officials and constructors
for the purpose Of going ahead with
the work as soon as the weather be
comes ft. The power house will b
built near Newport, so that the great
est voltage will be obtainable near ths
hills round that little town. as this IL
where II will be most needed.
AT first, It was proposed to enter WI
mington by means Of the Elsmer
road, but the management though
that this way would be too far around
so it has concluded to go in by way o
Maryland avenue, and by agreemen
with the Wilmington City Company
will be able to cooperate with 1t to tn
extent of issuing free transfers to an.

LIEuTENANT PEARY COMTNG.

An unusual treat has been prepared
for the pleople of this city to-mOr-
day night. Lieutenant Robert u.
Peary, the intrepid and persistent Arc
tic explorer, fresh from a satisfactory
trip to England, is to narrate his thrill
ing story of a hunt for the North
Pole. That he did not succeed does
not mean that he will not. He has been
acknowledged as the peer of Nansen
and others, and his reputation as a
public speaker has been established.
While in London he was entertained
by the American ambassador, men,
bers Of the royal family and leading
geographers. He was admitted to be a
most delightful talker, and one who
knew how to describe what he has
seen. He will not only tell his story but
will show a series of phOtographicviews
that can be seen in no other way
During his visit to London the Satur-
day Review Of that city said: There
is a tinge of hero-worship in the re-
ception accorded to Lieutenant Peary
which surpasses the reception OF Dr
Nansen. This is as it should be. Peary
is of our race and speaks our tongue
and it is only fitting that we should
feel more warmly for him than for z
foreigner. Moreover, the desperate
courage shown by Lieutenant Peary is
almost unparalleled in the splendid
story Of Arctic exploration"

when they are seeking the sands OF the
