ANOTHER RAILROAD.
The Illinois Central to Build from Fl.
Dodge to Omaha by way Of Harlan.

The Des Moines papers last week an
nounced the filing of articles OF
incorporation of the Fort Dodge & Oma
ha Railroad Company with Secretary OF
State Dobson. The incorporators are
Hon. John f. Duncomb of FIT. Dodge
and some half dozen we'll known Chica.
go railroad men, all closely identified
with the Illinois Central Railroad Com
pany. The new company has an
authorized capital of 100000 and its
purpose is to construct railrod from
FIT. Dodge southwest through the
counties of Webster, Calhoun, Greene,
Carroll, Audubon, Shelby and Potta-
wattamie to Omaha. The new line will
be approximately one hundred and
thirty miles long, and will be operated
in conjunction with the Illinois Central
road. Mr.. Duncomb, one of the incor-
porators of the new company, states
that the new road will be reality in a
short time, that one survey has already
been made and that the work of secur.
ing right .of-way will be commenced at
once.
But little information is given out
relative to the route that will be taken
by the new road, but it is understood
that it will cross the Milwaukee road in
the vicinity OF Dedham and from thence
run direct to Harlan, crossing the north
west corner of Audubon county.
In confirmation of the statement that
the project is bona fide one, it is known
that the new company has recently pur-
chased terminal grounds and right-of-
way in Council Enthusiastically Co.

The Clay Worsted of which
these suits are made is woven from
pure worsted yarn, dyed with
Alizarine black (Which is the only
absolutely fast black known to
scientific dyers,) and therefore
must not be confounded with
trashy fabrics frequently offered
by some dealers, which are dyed
with logwood fugitive dyes. By
fugitive, we mean fading dyes.
These suits will retain their orig
inal new luster until worn out and
will neither turn green nor grey

The Men Killed at tho West Yard on Friday
Night Have Been Identified rs Richard
and Conrad Liersemaun OF Canton, "A Sub
urb of the City OF Baltimore.
The mon who were killed in the
west yard on Friday night or early
Saturday morning have been identified
as Richard and Conrad Liersemann,
aged 26 and % years, respectively. They
were sons of Mrs. Pauline Liersemann
of No. 1107 Chesapeake street, Canton,
Baltimore, and Deputy Coroner Chapd-
Ter Monday shipped the bodies to her
residence, from which place the funeral
will take place.
Charles Liersemann, brother of the
men, came to Wilmington on Saturday
and identified the remains. He arranged
to have the bodies taken to Baltimore
Monday. He said his brothers left
home last Wednesday week for Delmar,
where they expected to secure employ
ment. Richard, he said, had $50 with
him and Conrad had S12. When the
bodies were found all of the money
was gone, with the exception of %
cents.
Richard, he added, was cook, and
for several weeks before he went away

late Gustav Liersemann, and came from
Germany when they we're lads. They

Good and practical advice to Presi-
dent Mckinley is contained in the fol-
lowing from the New York Times
1--WE venture TO suggest to him that he
overestinIates the power Of the poll
ticians. There is force far greater
than theirs which he can enlist on his
side, and which they would be helpless
to resist. That is the hearty and do
served confidence and goodwill of the
great body of the American people. II
he will do his duty steadily, disregard
the politicians, keep his promises, and
appeal to the people, they will stand
by him. Let him think for q moment
Of the great opportunity and the great
responsibility that no faces. Our ac-
questions through the Spanish war
will impose the severcst strain on the
public service. If he will openly and
firmly adhere to the principle that the
interests of the people and not those
of the politicians shah govern his ad-
ADMINISTRATION of the service at home
and abroad, the politicians canaot pre-.
vent the people from honoring him."

Folly OF Holding the rn.,lpp,n...

The Boston Herald gives o solid shot
against the folly of taking possession
OF the Philippines in the following:
"What we realize here, but what pos
sibly is not as clearly understood else
where. is that, tropical possessions are
not popular possessions; that the
Philippine Islands can never be the
centre OF an American civilization ;
that if we take possession of them, in
ten or twenty years from this time
there will not be among their 10, 900, 600
or more inhabitants 10000 Americans
who had been born and raised in this
country. The islands, il they are
ours, will be the scene of industrial
undertakings carried on by great syn
dictates of capitalists, who will employ
the cheap labor Of the natives in the
upbuilding of tropical productive enter
prisos. These undertakings may prove
Of advantage to these wealthy cnpi-
talists to the Brices, the Elkinses,
the Wideners, the Rockefellers and
othors of that class-.but the advan-
lagos which these gentlemen exploit
will not add single cent month tc
the wages of American workmen, or te
the income of the average American
cltiZcn. ~

To Form u Political club in the Third

Encouraged by the result OF the
recent election in their district, the
Democrats Of the Third Senatorial dis
trict of New Castle county. comprising
Brandywine and portion OF Chris.
tiana hundreds, propose to organize a
Democratic club. The normal Repub-
licsn majority in this district was
heavily cut into on election day, and
had Democrats in other districts done
rs well, the election would have re-
suited differently in county and State.
The Democrats Of this district pro-
pose TO keep up their work during the
interim between now and the next
election, and as means of doing this
most effectively will form themselves
into Democratic club. Leading
Democrats of the district have ex-
pressed themselves as heartily in favor
of the movement, and a meeting for
preliminary organization will be held
in short time.

Quarto 2Ul pages. New Yorx The Cen.
fury Co. si.56. Edition de luxe, $500.
Seldom has famous book been so
adequately illustrated as the new
edition of "Pilgrim's Progress, with
illustrations and decorations by tho
brothers George, Louis and Frederick
Rhead. The original drawings, ex-
hibited first in London and afterwards
in New York, attractei unusual at
tention in both cities, and general
desire was expressed to see them re-
produced in connection with the text
of Bunyan's classic-the most popular
single book ever written in the English
language. They are not only highly
decorative, hut they reflect with re-
markable fidelity the spirit Of the book
itself. There are SO full-page illus
trations, and twice as many smaller
ones, with headbands, initials, &c.
The type in which the work is printed
has been carefully chosen to harmonizo
with the style of the pictures and
decorative borders. Perhaps, after all,
the most striking thing about the book
is the very low price at which the
regular edition, printed in brown inl,
on heavy paper, is sold "a price that
puts it within the reach of all.
