RIVER PARK.

Now that the Christmas season is
over and the various amusements in
the way of Christmas trees for the
Sunday school and other children are
things of the past, those who have
been working for the good of the lit
tie ones and for their infantie pleas
ure, can begin to devote themselves to
the consideration of River park.
The work of filing in has nearly
been accomplished, and it is time a
committee was formed and leave OBJ
tanned from the government to go
ahead with improvements. As was
no better man for initiating the or
gahization could be found that F. w.
Damon, and there are many others,
notably the ladies interested in the
kindergartens who would take lead
ing part.
The main thing is to start an or
ganization and not leave the place in
a happy go lucky way to get along as
best it can. Once IA beginning is
made there will be plenty of outsiders
who will become interested. The
Identifying of parks and public play
grounds is a favorite means by which
the wealthy show their appreciation
of the place that they have made their
wealth in. Thus one man gives a
fountain, another a statue, another a
conservatory and so forth. This kind
of public spirit has not yet been
aroused here, but it will be in time.
We have been, in the past, too apt to
look to the government to do every
thing; we shall now have to do for
ourselves

1t is right to call attention to the
amount of drunkenness in the out
skirts of the city. This is unfortu
nately not confined to the mature men
but boys of from II to Is are often
seen under the influence of liquor.
This is obtained from Illicit dealers
who sell stuff worse than fixed bayo-
nets, and warranted to kill at sixty
yards. The subject is a sad one, but
calls to mind sketch of John
Leech's. \ very bedraggied old wom-
an meets d drunken individual coming
out of a public house. The following
conversation takes place: Old Wom-
an-"Do they sell good liquor in
there?" Drunken individual -
dsh-hic-should shay sho-hic.
Look at me-hic-onIy three pensh!'
But it illustrates the kind of liquor
that is sold at these places. 1t is
cheap and very bad, and the results
are serious. The police should make
a number of raids.

The firing of Chinese bombs to Gel
citrate the Christmas season is an in
novation that might be dispensed
with. With the Chinese the object of
setting off bombs and fire crackers is
a distinctly religious ceremony, for
the noise is made with the object of
driving away the evil spirits. With
the class of people who let off bombs
at Christmas one trusts that there has
been no such reversion to heathendom,

This, probab y, accounts, at least o
some degree, for the failure of cod

assertion that the version used by him
is original will be disputed by none.
Consideration for the person who under
took the adaptation, doubtless, is respon-
sible for the omission of his (or, pos
sibly, herr name from the play bill. We
do not care to think so badly of Mr..
Daily as to suppose for moment that
he, himself, is the a1aptor-although
there is little in his newest venture to
cause us to revere him for its sake! Cy-
rano demands veritable Proteus for
correct exposition and Interpretation;
and no policy Of argument can excuse
the assignment of Mr.. Richman to the
role. To Miss Rehan, herself, was en-
trusted the elaboration OF the part of
Roxane to such proportions as would
make of the actress the most prominent
parsonage in the entertainment. And
Miss Rehan proceeded promptly to hark
back to the days of "7-20-s," The Rail
road of Love" " "The Great Unnnown,'
and other works in which she had been
coquettishly charming; and she gave us
a Roxane that never suggested the prec
ieuse who is won by fair face and
fairer words, and that acted like one of
the hoydenish misses OF Mr.. Daly's
transations from Won Moser of Bisson."

enough to say that half the parents of
the children are women, half the chill
dren are girls, nine-tenths OF the teachers
are women, the cooperation of the home
with the school must be largely brought
about through women, women are made
expressly eligible by law both to men,
bership themselves on school committees
and to voting for the membership OF
others, practice is tending towards a
larger interest on their part in public
affairs, particularly in education, and
experience is confirming the practice.
If they are unbusiness-lke or act on i'm
pulse or lack steadiness and poise or do
not take broad views or betray other un-
fitness, so much the more reason for that
kind of practice whose effect ultimately
is to reduce such unftness.
'Tt is quite conceivable that men, in
spite of their prolonged experience, may
fall below that ideal fitness that should
characterize a school committee mem
ber With the rapid increase in the
number of highly educated women,
with the formation of strong womens
clubs for educational, literary, philan-
thropic and other work. with the larger
life everywhere opening to women and
bringing into varied activity her poten-
tial energy, it is important-nay, i'm
perative-that this mighty gathering
force should be utilized for the welfare OF
the children.
Zone way to utilize it is to give it a
channel of expression, as has already
been authorized, through the service OF
women on school boards. Another is to
welcome the service of women's clubs in
that great and interesting supplementary
field from which school committees, with
their scant funds, are practically de-
barred, but in which outside forces, if
they choose and are permitted to act, can
do splendid cooperative work"
Mr.. Hill has national reputation as
educator and his views are the result OF
wide observation and a painstaking
thoughtful experience covering many
years and various conditions.
In addition his views has the advan-
tage OF being totally unbiased by local
prejudice.

moral Is plain.

"What for?'
"Well, sir, you remember Bar Harbor.

"Well, what of that?'
Nothing, sir, except that we've quit

And so Chief Engineer Bonney and
his assistants and his firemen and his
oilers quit the ship.

stances, the host did the best he could.
After dinner Mr.. Gould and his guests

CREW DESERTS
YACHT NIAGARA
Weird Experiences On Board the Boat
Which Was Launched Here
February 10.

On February 19 Of this year great
event took place at the shipyards of the
Harlan Il Hollingsworth Company. The
finest American yacht atloat, the Nj
agara. was launched on that day.
1t is owned by Howard Gould, son of
the late Jay Gould, and a millionaire.
Miss Katharine Clemmons, the tiancee of
Mr.. Gould, broke the bottle of cham
pagne over the bow Of the Niagara in this
city. No member Of the Gould family
except Howard was present.
Soon after war was declared, Mr..
Gould, Miss Clemmons and their friends
started out on a cruise along the New
England coast and returned last Friday
week, after an eventful cruise between
New York and Bar Earbor. Me-, and re-
turn.
She brought four passengers, Howard
Gould, Miss ClemmOns and Mr.. and Mrs.
Kirkpatrick. Mr. Kirkpatrick was in
Wilmington when the Niagara slipped
from the ways and has been with Mr.
Gould since, but according to his state
ment has never had such an experience
as he had Friday week, with the posi-
bic exception Of the ranstorm in which
he was caught here in this city at the
time the Niagara was launched.
The Niagara anchored just alb out din
ner time. The owner and his three guests
sat down to an elaborate meal. 1t began,
as all good dinners begin, with oysters,
and the menu included a number OF
courses.
IL was gay party. The lights shone
brightly in the handsome dining saloon,
the meal was well served, the yiands
were of the best. Oysters and the soup
had been disposed Of. Then came entree.
The servants hurried from the galley to
serve this course, when suddenly the
yacht became dark. Every electric light
had gone out. Three small candles
table decoratons--shone dimly in the
darkness, but their faint rays were not
sufficient to illuminate the meal. Mr..
Gould started from his seat at the head
Of the table.
'Georgen' he cried.
And George, the waiter, groped his
way into the saloon.
George" said Mr.. Gould, "fnd out
how many dynamos are running. Find
out what's the matter"
Mr.. GOuld's voice seemed scpulchral
in the deep gloom that had settled upon
the cabin, and George started down to-
wards the engine room.
"George" cried Mr.. Could. But no
voice answered and Mr.. Gould started
out after the servant, trying in vain to
find his way down to the engine room
He bumped his head several times, but
finally found the hatchway and began
to descend. Half way down dark form
loomed before him.
"Who's that" cried Mr.. Gould.
"It's Mr.. Bonney, sir"

ROUTINE OF CAMP LIFE
How the First Delaware and Other
Troops Spent Life in Uncle Sans
Service.

Many people who are ignorant of the
routine life in a military camp think
that all the soldiers are required to do is
little drilling and good bit OF loafing.
This is not the case as the following pro-
gram Of the everyday exercises will
show
The camp is wakened every morning
by the call for first sergeants at 4.45
O'Clock and fifteen minutes later reveille
is sounded and the privates have to get
up, dress and respond to assembly call
fully dressed and respond to the roll call.
The next fifteen minutes are consumed
in making their morning toilet after
which mess call is sounded. At 7.30
O'Clock assembly call is again sounded
and then monkey drill or setting up ex-
ercises. After the monkey drill they do
police duty, which consists of cleaning up
camp, pulling weeds and other work as
required. At 8 o'clock guard mount is
sounded and 10 minutes later it is com
menced and takes about three quarter,
of an hour
The next assembly is sounded for drill
work and lasts until about 1l.30 o'clock
when recall is sounded. And at 1870
mess call is again welcome sound. The
assembly to drill is again sounded at
80 O'Clock and the soldiers are drilled
until 3p. m, when they are recalled.
The next call is at 5.l5 O'Clock for dress
parade followed at $50 o'clock by mess
call
They are again required to answer at
roll call at $50 O'Clock; 0.45, lights ex-
tinguished; 1915, call to quarters; II
O'Clock, taps, meaning for every one to
keep quiet.
This routine work is done every day
except Sunday, on which day the boys
are not subjected to drills or monkey
drills, but at 10 o'clock a. m. are ex-
pected to attend divine worship in the
field church.
The soldiers and their equipments are
inspected every Saturday. AT this in
spection the boys clothes, shoes, but

Labor Notes.

The Paperhangers' Union of Cincin.
natl, is fighting for recognition by the
Federation of Labor and the Central
Labor Council. Some time ago the
paperhangers broke away from the
painters and decorators because they
thought they got no benefits from the
alliance commensurate with the expense.
Their efforts to get into the A. F. of L..
have been opposed by the painters and
decorators.
The experiment of having street car
lines owned by the municipality is to be
tried in Christiania, Norway. Electric
lines are to be built IN the near future
by the city. They are to be run toward
the eastern limits of the town, the rur-
pose of the city fathers being to encour-
age the building of homes in that quar-
ter. Now the growth of the city is to-
ward the west and rents there are high.
So it appears that the local government
even seeks to help the humber citizens
to secure cheaper habitations. Paternal-
ism is assuredly having fair test in
Christana.
Printer farmers We're sent to Pelham
Bay Park the other day by Topographic.
cal Union No. 6, of New York, TO dig the
potato crop on the union farm there. 1t
is thought that the sixty-four printer
farmers will have about 5000 to divide
among them in proportion to the crops
raised on their respective plots. This
revenue will not interfere with the regu-
lar out-of-work benefit of the union. The
experiment of truck farming, however,
is expected to make the unemployed,
or a number of them self-supporting
for at least a part OF the year. This will
lessen the expenses of providing for
the unemployed, on whom from $25, 900
to $50, 600 year has hitherto been ex.
pended.
Frisco municipal Democratic platform
p!anks follow: In granting franchises we
pledge our nominees for mayor and su.
pervisors to stipulate conditions for
white labor and California material, the
free transportation, while on official duty,
of members Of the police, fire and health
departments, and postmen in the en-
poy of the government. We further
pledge our nominees to vote for the re-
newal of no franchises at a date earlier
than one year before the expiration of
the original franchise In all contracts
let by the Board of Supervisor, and other
boards, and on all public work, we
pledge our nominees for all officers, hav-
ing discretion in such matters, TO stipu-
late for daily wage of not less than 50
for eight hours work. We demand that
some law be passed, and so pledge our
nominees, by which the people can iden.
tify by mark the goods made in Chinese
sweat shops SO that our patriotic people
may be enabled to discriminate between
the labor of their owp kind and that of
those who live like parasites upon the
community, and, in an economical sense,
drain it of its substance. We call on all
citizens to purchase no other goods than
those OF home production and manufac-
tnree, and thereby revive our industries
and employ our people.

WOMEN ON BOARDS
OF EDUCATION,
They Serve in Massachusetts and Sec.

Thereof.

Frank A. Hill, secretary Of the State
Board of Education of Massachusetts, in
speaking Of women on school commit
tees and boards, gives the following:
Inquiries are frequently made about
the extent to which women serve on
school committees. The following state
ment fully answers such inquiries: Num-
Der OF committees, 1853; committees COM
posed of men and women, l59; commit
tees composed of men only, 1874; men on
committees, l44O; women on commit
tees, 232.

still strenuously urged to women serving

AMUSING INSCRIPTIONS,
Amusing Features of Camp Life Re.
corded on the Hats of Some of
the First Delaware.

Conspicuous amongst the soldiers Of
the First Delaware Volunteers who were
furloughed at the armory on Friday al
ternOon were those who wore marked"
hats.
These tiles were in any old shape and
the inscriptions on them was appli-
cable to some incident OF life while in
camp.
All of these inscriptions fully showed
the personality of one or the other OF the
wearer as the following quotations will
show:
'We don't want any more pork and
beans Tor ten years nor to use the pick
and shovel again soon."
One young man from Company D,
from Dover had on his hat:
"ln God We trust, all others must pay
cash."
In wandering around the different
company rooms, this little poem was
seen on private's hat:
UNCLE SAM.
He does not think us mean,
But we are tired of pork and beans,
And if he'll give us something else to
chew,
Well always wear the blue.
This last quotation was followed by a
list Of the members of his tent and their
nick-names that they have received since
they have been in the service. They
were as follows: "Rockey Chalfant, Spar
row Chambers, Bot Wire, Bill Hall,
Miss Mary Bce, the girl who rides the
wheel, and Puggie Lydle, better known
as ColOnel.'
Among other hits seen on the hats
were these: 'Oh, for some OF that High
spire, only 81 cents a quart" " "We are
tired of hard-tack and dishwater coffee" "
| Gust to think OF it, 1866 days without
chicken and ice cream" 'We don't want
