DELAWARE
LEGISLATURE.
The Body Transacts Much
Business This Time.

Dover, Del, May 3-In the House Of
Representatives this afternoon Mr. Demp.
sey gave notice Of bill providing for the
establishment and maintenance OF divi-
sion of naval reserves for Delaware. The
bill is similar to the law In Pennsylvania,
and will place the marines under the oom-
mand of the officers Of tho National Guard
Of Delaware.
1t Is proposed to establish division of
fifty men, with headquarters In Whining
ton, and place them ut the disposal Of the
Government for any duty which may be
required of them. A party Of representa-
tive young men have been drilling IN Will
min:ton for some time. and II the bill be-
comes law they will form the nucleus
ior the division. They will probably be
detailed to man one Ut the Governments
auxiliary boats for service In the Delaware
Bay and the ocean front CT Delaware and
New Jersey.
In the Senate the House bill was passed
providing for. general educational law
for the State. 1t was amended SO as to
give the Governor the power to appoint
the county superin endents. The general
registration bill was referred back to COM
mittee. The two Houses are at logger
heads over the bill, however, and the shape
in which it will pass is matter Of con-
lecture.

The House passed the Kent County
Levy Court commission bill and 1t went to
committee in the Senate.
The House defeated the bill giving the
Legislature discretionary power In the
matter Of tax laws, and the bill to en-.
force the collection of the oapitation tax
was referred back to committee.
The bill providing for State Inspector
of Boilers was defeated, but the vote was
reconsidered.
Senator Meredith gave notice Of bills
classifying real estate In Wilmington and
for municipal taxation.
He also gave notice Of two bills which
arc Intended TO assist the Wilmington
police department.. At present q warrant
can not be issued or bail taken except by
the clerk of the Municipal Court. The
clerk cannot be present at the City Hall
all Of the time, and In consequence the
police department sometimes loses valu-
able time in securing warrants, as the
purpose The new bills would give the
house sergeant on duty at the City Hall
the power to issue warrants when the
clerk Is absent. He will also be allowed to
take bail.
The House reconsidered the vote by
which the Senate bill to allow the Phoe.
nix Fire Company of Wilmington an in
creased appropriation, was passed, and re-
committed it. A number Of people from
Wilmington asked hearing on the ma, ter
before it became a law. There will be talk
both for and against, and lively time Is
expected when 1t finally comes up for pas
sage.
Patrick Neary was here in the interest
of the new city charter, and John T.
Dickey is expected later in the week, 1t
is now generally accepted that the charter
can not pass in any shape at this session.
The friends of both the bona fide charter
and the new trick charter will continue
to work hurd.

regular meeting Of tho board without
injury to anyone.
The question Of flags was then raised
and President Baird said no wanted all
the school janitors to hoist the flags flying
day and night. but Mr.. Belts saw no
necessity Of flying them at night. Mr.

city and dealers want one dollar foot
for tho largest. II Cont care If it cost 81 90
n foot would have it at this time" said
Mr.. Morrow. 1t was then decided to buy

KILLING PLANT LICE.

An Amusing Treatmsnt That Has
Proved Very pAectual.
Tho man Of the house, II he be q
smoker, ought to expend some Of the
surplus smoke on the plants, writes q,
R. K" II he is permitted to smoke
indoors, place his chair In the plant
window and insist on his blowing the
smoke from his pipe or cigar among
the plants instead of out In the room.
! have always noticed that In homes
where the male members Of the family
smoke that house plants are remark
ably free from vermin. am not advo-
eating the use Of the weed, but simply
stating fact. A friend whose hus-
band is required to smoke out
OF doors, or In the woodshed,
has box arranged to hold her
plants when 1t 10 necessary to give
them treatment for vermin; In the COW
F. er Of the box is hole as large around
as a silver dollar, to which plug is
fitted. The man Of the house. when
called upon for the service, takes his
place In the woodshed with pipe and
plant box and is required to expend
part at least of his smoke on the
plants. 1t is quite amusing to see this
lord of creation" with a mouthful Of
smoke remove the plug from the plant
box and send the smoke among the
plants, but as the treatment is effect
ual and he takes the idea somewhat
in the nature of good joke, both he
and the wife are enthusiastic over the
plan,

ADJUSTMENTS



In addition to Buffalo Bills Wild West
representations, the Congress Of Rough
Riders of the World will attract almost
equal interest. In this congress will ap.
pear Vaqueros from Mexico, Gauchos
IRON South America. Arabs from the
African desert and Cossacks from the
steppes Of Russia. These latter, hardy
and dexterous horsemen may be consd-
cred rs on the border line between the
wild irregulars and trained and drilled
military; for though they wear we'll
known uniform, and are regularly en-
listed soldiers among the COssacks of the
Caucasian line, they ride with a wild, fierce
dash and individuality not characteristic
of any other bodies Of cavalrymen. This
does not mean that they are not we'll drill.
ed in their tactics and capable Of going
through their evolulions admirably; but
they havea certain sort of spirited Iree-
dom and capacity for independent per-
sonnl demonstration which only perhaps
the French and Americans might, If en-.
couraged thereto, display. They wear
handsome but sombre uniforms, ride the
1.-the, small horses of the steppes, and are
mounted on small troop saddles very
high front and rear. which are built up
with pads fully four inches thick SO that
they may seem to perch far above the
horses Instead Of broad cinch to hold
the saddle, they hold three narrow straps
tightly drawn, which would seem to be
rather severe. Their s;irrups are very
small, only big enough to get the points of
their toes into, and drawn short. A man
must be good rider who can occupy that
aerial roost and steady himself by those
toy stirrups. But the Cossack does not
only that but much more. With his
horse at full gallop, he swoops down and
picks up Il handkerchief from the ground,
holds fast in the saddle and Seems to float
in the air alongside, swings himself back
to his seat and throwing his feet straight
up IN the air, rests on his shoulders or head
upon the saddle, leaps off, and after run
ming short distance, regains his scat by
bound from the ground, and finally
crossing his stirrups over the saddle stand
upright with his toes in them, and all this
without diminishing his headlonR pace.

Ono Of the most ingenious application
OF the telephone Ia the portable form.
which is known as the portable hospit:
telephone. Its particular use is to enab.
people In a sickroom In which ON infe;'
tious disease 10 being nursed to commune
cate with the people in the rest of Il.
house.
In hospitals this simple adaptation c
the telephone to the requirements of tt
situation will be found invaluable, but q.
evon greater field for Its utility will be TIL
private house. The irksomeness Of havin
some Of the infectious diseases in mill
form is multiplied tenfold by the snforoel
seclusion Of the patient, who is suddenl.
cut of from intercourse with the rest G
the family. Now by tho mere addition 0
this little instrument to the furniture c
the apartment 1t Is possible for siok per
son to keep up a conversation with an,
member Of the rest Of the family, and +,
this way the tedium which Is inseparabl,
from the compulsory isolation may be no
lieved.
Furthermore, the nurse will by IT.
means be saved good many journeys
even In noninfeotious cases, for she car
ask for things to be brought to her at ode
times which in the ordinary course she
would have to 60 for OF at least ring bell
and have some one como to the door tc
ask what she required Telephone.

Orchards will in time exhaust, at
least partially, the fertility of the soil,
and this exhaustion is especially no.
ticeable on soils which were not espec-
tally rich at the time the trees were
planted. To make young trees grow
more rapidly, a fertilizer should be
used, containing small per cent. Of
nitrogen (ammonia) mixed with potash
and phosphates. For older orchards
the nitrogen is not SO necessary,
while phosphates and potash should
be increased, especially the quantity of
potash. 1t is frequently a good plan
to stimulate top growth by sowing the
orchard to crimson clover in late sum
mer and turning it under In the spring.

The Park Commission has decided to
improve the city parks to tho extent OF
$1,000. The plans are now under way
and will DO submitted to the board at its
next meeting The park roadway from
West to Market street will be built. A
handsome entrance also is to be mado

1t Is also desired to change the course of
the Jcssup's road on the ncrth side OF tho

Growing Strawberries.

Strawberries can be raised on almost
any good farm soil, but rich sandy
loan is preferable. Plow the ground
in the fall, then in the spring replow
and pulverize thoroughly, planting as
soon as danger from frost is past. Gull
tivate throughout the season, keeping
loose layer Of earth on the top to act
as mulch. As soon as the ground is
frozen so that 1t will bear up a team,
cover with hay, straw or coarse manure
Of any kind. Leave this on until all
danger of frost is past in the spring,
then rake off the rows and let it re-
main between them until the berries
are picked, after which cut off the
plants with a mower and when there
is a brisk breeze, burn the whole patch.

tits not generally known that we have in
the vicinity of Wilmington half brother
to the famous Star Pointer, 15711<, the first
horse to pass tho two minute mark that
many hOrsemen predicted would never be
reached by either trOtter or PAGER, but such
Is the case. Jno B. Thompson, near the
North Star School House, In Mill Creek
Hundred, Is great adnirer of the Hal
family and Plus his faith on three year
old son of the noted Brown Hal, 2.l21a,
which was purchased In Tennessee about a
year ago from his breeder. He Is typical
Hal with the broad intelligent forehead,
and great muscular development of his
Sire and the best set of feot and legs ever
sprn under colt.
The Halls originated from cross of
the old Tom Hal, whose breeding was
unknown on the fine thoroughbred mares
brought from Virginia by the early settlers
Of Tennessee
They unite the bone aud substance of
the coach horse with the game and endur.
ancc of the hol oughbred race horse, and
are remarkably mild and pleasant in dis
position.
While they arc natural and speedy PAGERS
thev mostly trot at road gait changing
to the pace when pushed, which make, them
very pleasant roadster5 and most If not all
of them are natural saddle horses going
the fox trot and running walk, without
any training.
They are large enough for any work and
their disposition fits them for any kind of
use on the farm, the saddle, pillow or light
harness, and IL is believed they are unsur-
passed as farm and general purpose horses.
This colts first dam is by Bay Tom Jr.
great racing sire, his second dam by Old
Tom Hal, the sire OF Brown Hal etc, and
no is SO strongly bred in the Hal and other
pacing families, that he Is a pager OF the
PAGERS and it is believed he will sire pac-
ing foals from all classes of mares.
Mr.. Thompson also has another Hal
colt q year younger, also purchased in
Tennessee and a very handsome two year
old Morgan stallion bred in Vermont and
sired by Ben Franklin, 220, the king of
the Morgans." LIST dam by Humphreys
Green Mt, I'd dam by Black Morgan.
Morgans in the height of their fame will
fluid perfect reproduction and very
stylish and handsome colt.
Those who would not have pacer'
and like taller, more rangy class of horses
will find what they want In the young
Wilkes Stallion Brookland Chief owned
by W. j. Armstrong of Christinna Hun
dred, near Prices Corner. He is u perfect
model of the trotting bred ''coacher' and
while mis- speed Is us yeG unueVelopeu ne ls
very promising.
His sire, Rupee, had record Of 2.1l, md
his dam showed very fast In breaking, but
was so high strung that she was put 10
breeding and is now in Kentucky, where
she hai produced foalby Expeditions To-
no by Eectioneer and is bred back to him.
Farmers and others interested should
call and see these horses, as they are offer
cd at price that any owner OF a good
mare can afford to pay. and the best bred
ones are the only kind that 1t pays now to
raise either for sale or to use. Look them
