= the RefrSaorated Beef.
Washington, April 1.-All but two Of
the witnesses before the army beef In
curry court yesterday were members Of
the medical staff Of the army who were
on service in Cuba during the Spanish
war. The other two witnesses were Mr..
George H. Giddings and General j..
Hale Sypher, who had been interested
In securing contracts for supplying beef
on the h0of and on the block for the
army in Cuba. They testified that Gen
eral Eagan had told them that the Sec
rotary Of war had asked him to give the
refrigerator beef trial, while Mr.. Sy.
pher said that General Eagan had
created the impression upon him that
he preferred beef on the block to re-
frigerator beef, Their testimony through,
out was contradictory to General
Eagan's testimony, and Mr.. Giddings
said that Congressman Hawley was
present at several of his conferences with
General Eagan.
A majority Of the army surgeons ex-
pressed the opinion that the canned beef
was unsatisfactory as food for the troops,
but some of them thought it no more
harmful than other meat in the Cuban
climate.

WHERE were the eyes of the Re-
publican members of the Legisla-
ture when the bill was read and
passed requiring the Road Commits
sioners to bond in the sum of $500,
and on non compliance, they would
forfeit their office. Fortunately the
little joker was published in time
and the Road Commissioners were
not so slow as some thought in
bonding. 1t is right and proper in
our minds that these officials should
bond, but there should be no secre.
cy in any law passed, but they
should have the widest publicity,
and be published in the dailes.
The State has money to pay away
for Investigations and soldier caps,
but not dollar for publishing its
laws.

IT begins to look as if some of our
Wilmington merchants don't wake
up they are liable to get lost in the
shuttle for business, which is being
waged by the enterpri>ing business
men of to-day. 1t used to be that
the live merchant changed his adj
vertisement once week and rear
ranged or dressed his show window
once a month. Now he changes his
advertisement every day and dresses
his windows at least once a week.
Certainly the merchants methods
in this city are a revelation to our
people, who always expected to go
10 Philadelphia for their goods. but
have been agreeably surprised at
the bargains to be purchased here.

Church Attendance,

a. Tomorrow being Easter. the
preachers in our city should be
greeted by large congregations.
Every pew should be filed and the
preacher thus encouraged to re-
newed effort to interest and instruct.
Empty pews have disheartening
influence on the preacher, while full
pews may stimulate him to increas-
ed effort and lead to more impress
sive sermons. Persons who COM
plain of dull sermons should look
into their own conduct and see if
they have done their duty. They
should endeavor to uphold their
pastors hands and make his work
more effective. The associations of
Easter are inspiring to both pastor
and nearer, and as the time ap-
proaches for vegetation to put on
new life, the people should form a
resolution to occupy their pews at
every service and give such encour-
agement to the pastor as will slim
ulate him to greater effort to increase
his membership and labor in season
and out of season to reach the mark
of his high calling" Let all show
tomorrow that they really believe
their church creed and that they are
