AN ALLIANCE OF MILLIONS.
Engagement of Miss Fair and w.
X. Vanderbilt, Jr., Formally
Announced

New YORK, Dec. 29.-The reported en-
gagement of William Kissam Wander
bilt, Jr., and Miss Virginia Fail was
formally announced today. 1t is the
most notable betrothal in New York
for long time, uniting, as it will,
two great fortunes. From the stand
point of the millions involved it is an
alliance.
Society today talked of nothing else
but this engagement. Every scrap of in
formation that can be obtained is eagerly
discussed.
The report OF the betrothal was first
confirmed at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Hermann Oelrichs, the latter a sister Of
Miss Fair
There is no doubt that William K.
Vanderbilt, Miss Fairs future father-in-
law, approves the match. In proof of
this society cites the fact that he has ar
ranged a small house party in honor of
Miss Fair and his son.
Miss Fair will 60 to Mr.. Vanderbilt's
country place at 1slip, L. l. ION Saturday,
to remain over Monday. In the party
will be Mr.. and Mrs. Clarence Mackay.
Mrs. Mackay is one of Miss Fairs most
intimate friends.
Miss Fair made her debut in the Sum-
mer of 1894. Mr.. Vanderbilt is about
twenty wears Of age. He is still a student
at Harvard University, and will not
graduate until 1901. What society would

AN OFFICERS KINDLY ACT.
Patrol Driver John Purcell Assists
Two Young Ladies to Reach
Dying Parents Bedside.


Two young ladies' whose home is in
Chester, Pa, were in considerable ditfi-
Guilty last evening in this city and by the
gallantry of Patrol Driver John Purcell
they were assisted materially.
One Of the young women has been Wis.,
iting in Wilmington during the Christ
mas holidays and her sister came from
Chester last night to take her home on
account of the sudden and serious illness
of her mother. The girls were to take
the train that left Wilmington at 9.06 last
evening, but were just in time to see it
leaving the station.
The next train going north was 9.16
o'clock, but unfortunately it is not
scheduled to stop at Chester.
The sisters were completely un-
nerved and commenced to cry tor they
thought of the dear mother at home who
might be dead ere they we're able to
reach her bedside. Stopping into the
French street patrol station to inquire
for B. y 0. time table they stated the
cause OF their trouble.
Mr.. Purcell at once grasped the situa.
tion and going to the officials of the p,
W. q B. railroad put the case before
them as it was and they kindly promised
that the girls should be taken to Chester
on the GIG o'clock train although it is
not scheduled to make the stop.
The young women were profuse in
their thanks and were safely placed on
the train and arrived at the bedside of
the dying mother before it was too late.

Old SWedes' ReDairs.

Work was yesterday commenced on
the alterations of Old Swedes Church.
Two months time will be required to
complete the work. The roof will first
be replaced. In about two weeks the
church .edifice will be closed to services
wh1le the repairs to the roof are going on
and services will be held in the parish
house.
The committee having the improve.
ments in charge still need several
hundred dollars and would be pleased to
receive contributions. The Society of
Colonial Danes of Baltimore, through
the efforts of former resident OF Will
mlngten, who has family associations
there, has made contribution, and the
same person is making efforts to raise
sufficient funds to do all the work on the
tower: 1t is hoped that similar organiza-
tlons interested in historical matters will
also contribute.

LARGE ARMY TO BE HELD.
War Department Probably Will Not
Muster Out Any More Regi-
mentS at Present,

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-Although the
Secretary of War has prepared list OF
the volunteer regiments to be ordered
mustered out under the decision reached
by the Cabinet to muster out $4,000 vol
unteers now in camp, it is stated this
morning at the War Department that the
list may be held up for time until the
situation in Cuba and the Philippines
clears up and becomes settled. While
the Administration does not look for any
serious outbreak or disturbance, both the
President and Secretary of War ueen. it
advisable at this time not to reduce the
army until after the first of the year and
the occupation OF Cuba by the United
States is completed.
General Lee, since his arrival at Ia
vana, has requested the War Department
to hurry as many regiments to his COM
mand as possible. 1t is expected that the
celebration of the end of Spanish SOW
ereighty in the island will result in dis
turbances, if not conflicts, between the
Cubans and Spaniards, and General Lee
IS anxious to have as large force as pos
slble to preserve order. The Administra-
ton, therefore, thinks that it is best not
to issue orders for mastering out any
more volunteers until after the first of
the year, anyhow. II is stated at the
War Department that the colored regi-
ments in the Southern camps will be
among the first mustered out, as it is
found that these regiments will not be
serviceable in Cuba.

NO NEWS FROM GENERAL OTIS.
Authorities Feel Confident That He Is
Well Supported for Any
Emergency.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.--The officials of
the War Department have resigned them
selves to the lack of news from Iloilo, in
view of General Otis statement that il
required about fours days to communi
cate with that point from Manila, owing
to the absence of cable connections. No
further orders have been dispatched to
General Otis, as the Department takes
the position that he must be allowed to
exercise his discretion in dealing with
the situation because of his presence on
the scene. They are confident that he
has enough soldiers at his command to
carry out any project likely to be framed,
even if they involved forcibe subiuga.

scarcely expected that matters will reach

the annual meeting of the
American Jewish Historical Society in
Philadelphia. Statistics produced at that
by the eminent rabbi who
dedicated the Jewish synagogue in this
city recently are worthy OF consideration.
They show that cruelty, bigotry, ignor-
ance, superstition and many other vices
Of the brain are exposed in the warfare
against the Jews. But most unpleasant
in the whole business is the cowardlce OF
the persecution. The Frenchman, the
American-he is nun erous--the German
who attacks the Jew ''howls with the
wolves" to use the Frenchman's pro-
verb. He does it because he thinks it is
safe. Through history the persecution
has sgone on, it has been unpunished
and it has gradually become the pastime
Of all the earth's towards. But fortu-
nately it is getting less and less OF safe
pastime every day, and We shall before
long see its end. Human goodness has
done much to give the Jew his rights,
and the inordinate love and admiration
for money has done thousand times
more.
We worship money, as a race, and so
does the whole earth. The Jew has
money, or he gets it, and the wisest of us
as we'll as the few really good are begin
ming to see something in him. For an
example OF the cowardice that underlies
the attacks on the Jews at Russia. She
kicks out the poor Jew, his wife and his
children, or keeps him in starvation,
delights in his sufferings and will not let
him get up. But the rich Jew. What
of him? Why the richest Jew OF them
all, and the richest human being on
earth, has just gone to Russia. He is
there now, and the Cars greatest men,
his most arrogant Tarter half-breeds, are
on hand to wait until Rothschild shall be
pleased to see them and "talk business.
They want the money to run their gov
ernment. And with that want, they for
get all their proud disdain, and Roths-
child is their bosom friend; they love
him.
What does Rothschild do? Well he
proceeds to justify some of the things
that have been said about his race. He
does not say: "You need my money.
But you abuse my countrymen. You
murder the children of Israel and Tll
grind your faces in the dust. I'll make
you fear the red shield of Frankfort that
you would once have thrown into the
mud. I'll ruin your credit, and i'm
poverisl your Gar. You will learn from
the house of Rothschild that you cannot
with safety outrage Gods chosen
people," Unfortunately for romance,
Baron Rothschild will see to the rate of
interest and paddle home again a little
better off than when he left. That's the
worst of getting excited about a peoples
wrongs. They show so little excitement
themselves when they have the best
possible chance.
