From the above figures it will be
seen that Delaware ranks thirty-third
among the fOrty-nine States and Ter
ritOries; ana that the States ranked
below Delaware are the Southern
States-the negroes who are unable to
read and to write, being included in
the census from which these statistics
are collected.
The colOred population (ten years of
age and over of Delaware in 1890
numbered 2l60S; of these 1862 were
counted as illiterates almost one-half.
While Delaware has this host of ignOr-
ant citizens within her borders, vet,
as with her sister States of the South,
her intelligence, as far as the white
population is concered, ranks among
the foremost States of the Union.

CAN'T WE SAVE THE STARVING
HAVANESE?

More than once The Times has said
that the newspapers Of the country have
no business attempting 10 hurry the ad-
ninistration in the movements it contem-
plates for prosecuting the war. and that
the administration should pay no atten-
ton to them when they attempt TO do 1t.
The Times says the same thing now.
But The Times has carefully informed IT.
self OF the exact facts existing at Ha-
vana. and it believes that II the President
should give Admiral Sampson dlscre-
ton about attacking the land batteries
there. or not as ne thinks best, great
service might possibly be done to the
cause of humanity. Havana, city OF
nearly 100000 inhabitants, is now begin
ming 10 feel the panss Of hunger caused
by our blockade. The Spanish soldiery
will soon begin to rob the citizens OF
such food as they have. and there must
be soon a sickening holocaust OF starva-
ton there unless we do something TO re-
Iieve the situation.
We don't know where an authentic
map OF itdNdld anu IT'S MAJ oNA No4' ~
produced. but we 40 know that the
rough map which we print as part Of This
article is substantially Perfectly accur-
ate and correct reproduction Of 18th. 1t is
not drawn to a scale and it is as rough
ly executed as possible, but it gives an
exact picture Of the place for all the pur-
poses Of this article. It shows all the
foruncations that Havana has. The only
ones that would be thought worth atten-
ton by our naval officers are the bate
rles along the sea front between the
points A and y. There are not more than
twenty-five guns in these. and though
they are large guns they are practically
worthless for such an attack as our ships
would make upon them. They have been
placed I'm position according to the meth
DDS that prevail in every department Of
Spanish service. There was a job in their
manufacture, a job in transporting them
TO Cuba. a job in mounting them in bat
teries. and the consequence is the protec-
lions for them are worthless. the EN-
brasures will permit them TO point 20
the direct front only and when our fleet
attacks them on their flank, only four or
five of them can make any reply.
We present the following map Of the
harbor and city, which will be verified by
any person who is familiar with Havana.
