The New Caucus Law.

Our last state legislature passed A
law which was supposed to regulate
the holding of party caucuses, and
to prevent the packing Of the
same. No one seems to know the
full meaning of the law. But as it
contains clause requiring the APP
pointment of caucus inspectors in
certain precincts, the political par
ties of the state have been IN a state
of uncertainty. The law only affects
general elections. SO it is probable
that before the general election next
fall, the law will be set forth In a
clearer light.
To be on the safe side the republi-
can committee have appointed the
following caucus inspectors for the
four wards in Mineral Point city:
First Ward.

w. III. Jacka,

'HAIF A KING"

Francis Wilson is announced for next
Saturday night at the Grand Opera
House. At the risk Of being branded
as unorlginal, let it be remarked, that
Half King last season was a whole
success. There is scarcely a critic who
hasn't fallen into the trap OF this
verbage, so that sin is committed in
good company. The new opera is
almost everything that it should be.
It is fair in plot, not sufficiently in
volved to establish a new precedent in
comic opera insanity the music fits the
words and the words are good This
opinion is arrived at, not by anything
that issued out OF the mouth of the
chorus, but by careful reading of the
book OF the piece. But those who
heard the enhancing music last season,
will bear out the optimistic opinion.
II the English melo-drama had not
been written first, the Smith-Leterrier-
Van-LoO-Englander piece might have
been called ''The Fatal Card" but that
little pre-empted Half a King.
''Half q King" is the next thing. Hall

horse. At that time Mr. SayeTs was
wearing short dresses and a bib, and he
has but a faint recollection OF Charles
palmy days. II is sufficient to know
that for several years Charlie has as
sisted him in the collection OF taxes,
amounting to more than $1,000, 900, and
that he is entitled to a grass and sheaf-
fodder commission. He has cancelled
the race between Charlie and Thor
ough because the former has become
so uncertain of his footing that the
jockey who would drive him declined
to take such a great personal risk.
Mr. Sayers now drives a little bay
gelding called Pointer. He is a distant
relative of Hal Pointer. although the
Pointer family being rather proud and
exclusive, has never formally acknowl-
edged the fact Mr.. Sayers spoke most
feelingly Of Charlie this morning. In
fact, he was so deeply affected that the
Wayfarer noticed a tear, due to grief or
grip, trickling down his cheek.

FREE VIOLIN SCHOOL CARNIVAL.


At the Opera House on Tuesday and
Wednesday, April 10 and 20, a remark
able entertainment will be given by
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank T. Benjamin. One
hundred Wilmington boys and girls
will show wonderful degree of prof.
cheney on the violin, especially com
mendable from the fact that they have
only been receiving lessons since No
vemlber o. The chorus work is an
other special feature. The volume of
tone, shading and musical taste dis
played have caused favorable comment.
In addition to which nearly every song
has been made particularly attractive
by the introduction of motions, which
are produced with such precision as 10
amaze the audience. One song, entitled
James" is made beautiful and be-
wildering through the manipulation OF
1000 hands and 10000 fingers. The
Slumber So Gently" chorus from
Princes Bonnie" fascinates the audi
ence as the children's heads and
bodies sway from side to side and f.
nally fall asleep on each others shOul-
ders. The second part of the program
is entirely patriotic and military in its
character, and introduces over 100 boys
and girls in bright costumes, repre-
senting the armies and navies of the
world. The figures which the little
ones execute would be a credit to some
Of our crack military organizations.

spend the night alone. With more or
less apprehension he saw a stranger
approach his camp. lie was a rough
looking man. of burly form, and the
young man from Claymont recognized
that. in a hand-tO-hand encounter, he
would be at a serious disadvantage in
dealing with such a powerful adver-
sary.

tent tO-night?" asked the visitor
Graef wanted to refuse, but he hadn't
the heart to do so.

made himself at home.
They had supper and, after talking
over their prospects until bedtime, they

kept 1t concealed from his guest
The night passed uneventful, and, az

One Of its hind legs had been cut Off,
evidently months or years ago, and il
was putting down three and carrying
the half with that ease which comes
Of long practice. Il was a large animal,
Of no particular breed, but with look
which indicated that, despite its loss,
IL could take care of itself against all
canine cOmers.
