ms FUTURE ASSURED.

If reports current in and about the
Court House are to be credited, Mid
uletOwn IS soon to send IOrUh before
the fOOtlights an actor Of unusual tal-
ent in the person Of John Curtis Clark
Kelley, son OF County Comptroller
Kelley. Young Mr.. Kelley makes a
speciality Of German comedian parts,
and, while in training, it is understood
by the Wayfarer that he eats nothing
but sauer kraut, lienberger and SWEET
zer. He has already made his debut in
the MiddletOwn Opera House, and in a
few weeks will make another debut, il
it may be 80 expressed. Those who
have seen him and heard him say that
while he neither acts nor sings exact
ly like Fritz Emmett, he looks some
thing like him when he Is made up.
The New York managers have their
eyes on him, and in a few months he
may be starring 1t in one of FrOhman's
companies, If the rope does not break.
He is n prime social favorite in the me-
tropolis OF st. Georges hundred, and
the town will be sorry to4Ose him. but
1t consoles itself with the thought that
It Is making a generous sacrifice of a
gifted son to the god Of the Little

he can account for the error on the
part OF the clerk is that the chief JUS
tice is president OF the board of trus-
tees OF the Delaware State College for
Colored Students, and the city solicit
tor is secretary Of that body. They
have had considerable dealing with the
book house in question in consequence
Of their connection with the college,

HIs PLEA on INsANITY.

It was a rather prosperous-looking
newsboy who spoke, and the person ad-
dressed was on out-Of-town man who
was in the act of entering the P., W. &
b. railroad station to purchase a ticket
to return home after n day carelessly
spent in some Of the saloons, as was
manifest by his flushed face and un-
steady gait.

Give me one of every kind that you
have"
The boy handed him three papers
and the man went on his way without
paying for them. The newsbOy was SO
dumbfounded by the cheek displayed
that he did not recover himself until
the man was over at the WINDOW pur-
chasing his ticket. Soon he saw him
leave the window and begin to con-
verse with a friend. The newshoy saw
his chance. Reckoning to this friend
he stated his case to him.

"All right, sir" said the littl @ victim

HIS LONG APPRENTICESHIP.

Nowadays boys and young men think
they are making an unnecessary sacri-
flee Of a year or two OF their lives if
they give their employers three or four
years Of service for teaching them a
trade. but they have no adequate ccn-
ception of the apprenticeships of years
gone by. In course of conversation
with City Treasurer Curry, one of the
nest genial and level-headed men in
the city, he told the Wayfarer that he
served his apprenticeship with man
named Stayton, in Smyrna, and that he
gave his master his services from the
time that he was years old until he
lad reached the age Of 10, and would
have remained until he was 20, but for
The advice Of some of his friends who
called his attention to the fact that the
one year CT schooling, which was pro-
vided for in the indenture of appren-
icoship had been denied him, and ad-
vised him to take French leave of his
master. He acted upon advice, bundled
up what few belongings he had, took
the stage for Wilmington. and decided
70 make the most Of the life just open
ing TO him.
How well he succeeded everyone
knows. He became a successful busi'
ness man. an active and clean politi
| clan. a leading member Of Grace NJ. Il

THEIR WEARY cuAsn

The young men of this city, who be-
long to that contemplate class known
as women mashers." were taught a
lesson by a couple of East Side girls
several days ago. They began flirting
with and following the girls at Sew
enth and Market streets. They received
all necessary encouragement and kept
up the chase over several streets on
the East Side. The girls kept from
half square to q square ahead of
them all the time. Finally they turned
the corner at Seventh and Poplar
streets, looking back enticingly as they
did 50. The mashers quiclkened their
pace but when they rounded the cor
ner the Girls had disappeared, and there
was nothing left for them to do but to
return to Seventh and Market streets
and wait for victims who were not in
the iollying mood.
