HON. JAMES L. wOLCOrT DEAD.

Hon. James L. Walcott died sud
denly of appOplexy at his residence in
Dover, at Z. 45 o'clock Thursday morn
ing. He seemed unusually bright
when he retired at $50. At about T..
that morning the servant heard him
cough, which was not unusual, and as
was her custom as soon as she knew
him to be swake in the morning she
took a glass of hot water up stairs for
him. Meeting Mrs. WOlcOtt she gave
her the cup. Mrs. WolcOtt went at
once to her husbands room, and on
entering she noticed him gasping and
as she reached his bed he died.
Mr.. WOlcott had been to Laurel on
Wednesday, but was not feeling well,
indeed for a month past he had been
complaining of stomach trouble. After
arriving home Wednesday he went
down town but went to bed early and
in the morning his death was discover
ed. He leaves an interesting family.
His wife, formerly Miss Mary Good
win, is a noble character and has made
him a most excellent, christian wife.
Three sons-James, Joseph and Alexis
survive him.
James l.. WalcOtt was born in Mis-
pilliOn Hundred about lo43 and after
studying law in Dover with Hon. Eli
Salisbury was admitted to the bar Oct.
23rd 1856. He at once took marked
position among the younger members
Of his profession and TOOK an actlVe
part in Dolitics. He was appointed
Chancellor in 1891 by Gov. Reynolds
and filed the Office with credit and
ability. He resigned the position to
accept the more lucrative place as sollc-
itOr of the PENNSYLVANIA Railroad for
the State of Delaware, which position
he held at the time of his death. Mr..
WOlcOtt had for years been one OF the
staunchest Democrats, a leader In his
party who for years had been a potent
factor in their successes. He was an
aspirant for Senatorial honors which
he might have secured had he re-
nOunced his belief in Sound Money.
Mr.. WOlcott's last public appearance
was as counsel for the Democratic
members of the Board of Canvass, II
the legal proceedings growing out o.
the count of the votes cast, at the las
general election.
Mr.. Wolcott was more consclonaDl'
than the average politician, and an IN
innate friend of his in Dover say
that he did not have the same spirl
after that event
The funeral on Saturday was one o
the largest erer held in Dover, attest
ing his personal popularity. Ther
was cot apparently town or oommnn

CAN'T BE REDUCED.
Treaaurer Zimmerman Thinks So lf Ncces-
tary Fxpcnacs arc to be Mot-Loss
OF the Phosphate Money.
columbia Record.)

In view of the fact that taxes are
being 80 slowly paid, evidently from
the low price Of cotton, people are
beginning to discuss the question
whether it will not be possible for
the legislature to reduce the levy at
the coming session.
DR.. Zimmerman, treasurer Of the
State, is probably more familiar with
the financial condition of the State
than any other man in it. In speak,
ing on the general aspect Of affairs
he expressed the opinion this morn
ing that the levy could not be re-
duced, provided even the necessary
appropriations for the government
arc counted as they are. There is
no extravaganza in appropriations.
On the contrary there Is in many in
stances q disposition shown to cut
down the expenses of the depart
ments absolutely necessary to the
proper conduct of the government.
DR.. Zimmerman planned that the
great loss Of tho revonue from the
phosphate industry made it impos-
I sible to reduce the levy. This meant
loss of several hundred thousand
dollars which annually went into the
treasury.
From interviews and letters pub
lished in tho county papers it is evi-
dent that Legislators are set on cut.
ting down expenses, many Of them
advocating the reduction of alaries
of officers. Such bills come up year
ly, but generally amount 10 nothing.
Even if they were scaled rs some
Legislators want them tho situation
would not materially be affected; the
levy would not be decreased
1t seems that the only thing to do
is TO grin and bear it, now that we
arc in hard luck, and hope for better
times to come.

Admiral Dewey, the greatest naval
horo Of tho war, commands todav
tho highest prico in tho literary

offer Of $4,000 for ono short article

oy's response by cable was:
"Thanlis, but | am too busy"
Lieutenant Hobson, the Merrin1no

from two magazines for an article

Lieutenant Hobson, though modest
horo and sincere, straightforward
officer, put himsolf in tho hands
OF " lawyer, who managed to obtain
$4,000 for tho article which Lieuten.
ant Hobson is soon to write. The
Century got 1t.
These prices put tho naval hero
above tho literary genius, although
twice within ono year Rudyard Kip

$1,000 for 900 words and has de-
clinod it. Tho regular price paid
for tho long stories Of this oxtraor

Conan Doyle received only $3.50
