THEIR G1RLIsH REQUEST.

THEIR GIRLlSl1 REQUEST.
In a thoughtless moment girls say
and do things which they regret tine bal
ance of their days. An instance in
point came beneath the Wayfarer's no
tice Saturday afternoon. He and a
friend went to Pennsgroye to take
last look at the camp of the Second
Battalion, Second Regiment Pennsyl-
vania Volunteers. In the grove near
the hotel were two young Wilmington
girls OF respectable parents and, so far
as the Wayfarer knows, the girls
themselves are both good and entitled
to the worlds esteem. But they are
young and thought.ess, as the follow
ing will show;
While the Way6arer was engaged in
anchoring off the boat one OF the girls
called his companion and inquired:
"Isnt that the Wayfarer?"
He answered in the affirmative
Wont you please bring him over
have an item for him" she said.
A minute later the Wayfarer was
formally presented.
Il wish you would state in youf
Note Book that Miss -- and Miss
-. of Wilmington, are visiting Mr..
-- and Mrs --- at Pennsgrove, %
said the elder of the girls.
The Wayfarer took the note and the
girls seemed perfectly satisfied.
Suddenly one OF them said to the
other:
There they are, now. Excuse us
please"
They went off to another part Of the
grove and Joined two soldiers.
Like thousands of other gir,s, they
were infatuated with the blue and the
gold, and the Wayfarer then and there
concluded that he would be doing them
a service by omltting the personal item
which they had given him. AIT O'Clock
they took the boat for home, their sol
dier friends seeing them as far as the
pier. They were apparently as happy
as could he, and waved farewells to ths
objects OF their devotion as the steam
beat moved off from her place Of moor
ing.

WHERE HE FOUND TROUBLE.

WHElfE HE FOUND IhOU BILE.
In this old world Of ours a man can
find all the trouble he wants without
looking for it. Despite this recognized
condition there are men who cOnecien-
tiously hunt for trouble and almost in.
varlably find il. Robert Cross, if the
Wayfarer is not misinformed, is one Ct
them. On Saturday night ne became
lmbued with the idea that ne was ca
pable Of physically coping with any
man in the world, and proceeded to cry
his belief from the hOusetops. Some Of
Michael Devine's friends heard the
proclamation and decided TO accomplish
the downfall Of the proclaimer. A dol.
lar was posted and the two men pitted
against one another. Devine threw
Cross to the floor with more regard for
getting him there than for the manner
Of its accomplishment. Cross grabbed
Devine by the legs. The latter raised
his 1st, looked pityingly at his fallen
foe, and inquired:
Shall / hit you?"
Before Cross could reply in the mega
tive his friends interfered, Devine wa
given the dollar and the white-wingeC
dove of peace famed the perspiratior
from Cross heated brow.

WHERE THE WATERS BACKED.

Some time ago the Wayfarer called
attention TO the bad condition Of Guth-

condition is steadily growing worse. In
fact, the water has backed.up in one
of the shops of the Diamond State Iron
Company's works to such an extent
that five men were required to deepen
the sluice and run the water off.

Mrs. webb's Address.

There was good attendance both after
noon aud evening to hear this lady on
topics Of social purity. Heredity, en-
vironment, home and school education,
literature, mothers meetings, and the
enforcement Of laws for the protection OF
youth are steps indicated as contributing
to purity Of the individual and Of society.
Whatever, in reading, in art, in cOnver-
sation taints the imagination, does harm
by suggestion, or degrades by coarseness
often irreparably lowers the moral tone
The speaker did not believe in inherent
moral superiority Of the girl over hel
brother. Her training and protection
from evil was more carefully guarded,
from babyhOod up. In her college life
she had pre-eminent advantage In this
particular. The double standard OF
morals begins early and is as wrong in
theory as in practice.
The law Of the state regarding indecent
show bills and advertising is enforced In
some places and should be enforced
everywhere. The curfew law is whole
some moral measure and should be
worked for. Petition work bears fruit In
the legislature. The states all over the
Union are indebted to the WOman's
Christian Temperance Union for better
laws for the protection Of the home and
family.
Mrs, Webb, while fluent, clear and
easy speaker, is not one Of the scOlding
or ranting kind, but is modest, refined
and well-infOrmed woman, who makes
her point and stops when she gets
through.

DIFFERENT motives have led men to
join in the fight for free Cuba. says the

said he went to the front because he
couldn't be a good boy at home"
Theodore Roosevelt couldn't bear being
cooped up in Washington while there
was work for soldiers in Cuba" Prof.
Hatfield, Of the Northwestern University,
was "impelled by a sense Of duty" to re-
sign his place and go as a common
sailor on the Yale. DR.. Claiborne, who
resigned from squadron A because his
practice needed all his time, dropped
everything in the excitement Of the
moment and went off with the Twelfth
regiment because he had been itching
for a fight" all his life. Several cotillon
leaders Joined Col. Woods rough riders
because there was ''only ennui" at home.
Latent patriotism did Its share Of the
recruiting however. no matter what may
have been the underlying motive.

and the Anti-SalOon League, insisted that
ministers and members abstain from use
Of tobacco, that pastors preach at least
one sermon year upon Social Purity.
They recognized the influence Of the

agreed to standby papers such as opened
their columns for the dissemination Of

their sympathy to teachers in public

out the loss Of q single man. They had
hardships and perils in abundance, were
picked men, went from homes Of comfort
and luxury. Their first camp was on
the Snow-capped Allegheny mountains,
with cold and wet weather. From there
they went to Chicamauga and encount-
cred unhygienic conditions and after
much exposure there were taken to Porto
Rico on a stuffy cattle-ship, camping In
cane swamps full Of malaria and at Last
loaded their guns for action, when, in
stead Of the order to fire, came the word
Of peace.
They suffered from hunger, waiting
for transportation, and had sickness and
another unspeakable voyage home, but
every man came.
A Plttsburg paper said: 'This battery
had no canteen; not men enough who
drank to support one, nor would the cap
tain allow one." Its members we're sc
