shake the tambourine, sing rag
time ditties, and crack the newest
jokes. Later, he will give one of his

and four masculine singers, who have
scored hits in the vaudeville theatres
n the various large cities Others will
be Nugent brothers, who are experts
in the science of buck and wing dane
ing, and Winans and Bond. who are

FEDERAL JURY DISCHARGED.

NO WORK EITHER IN UNITED
STATES CIRCUIT OR DISTRICT
COURTS.
The jury for the June term Of the
United States Circuit and District
Courts was discharged from further
attendance by Judges Gray and Brad
ford, after convening in the Federal
court room this morning.
The reason for the discharge of the
jury was that there would be no cases
to be tried in either court during the
present term. Judge Gray, of the Cir
cult Court, announced that the only
case which was set for trial was that
OF Harris VS.. the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company. Questions had
arisen that would make it impossible
to try the case this term.
United States District Attorney
Byrne announced that there was no
business before the District Court
and asked for the discharge Of the
jury from further attendance. The
same jurors serve in both courts.
Before Judge Gray in Circuit Court
arguments were heard this morning
on demurrers to pleas in the suit OF
Harris VS.. the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company for damages sus-
tanned to a property at Water and
Market streets by closing up ingress
and egress of said property by the
railroad company. AS the questions
involved in the arguments were sucf
that would require grave considera'
ton by the court, the case, which was
set for trial this term, will go ovel
until the September term.
William S. Hilles and Peter l.
Cooper represent the plaintiff, whil'
Levi c. Bird appears for the defendant

OF Colonel DUPONT shook the tree

lar Republicans have little love for
Bach. but possess the most profound
respect for his ability as a political
schemer and It is stated they wished
to remove him from Delaware. BE

1t goes without saying that the ap-
pointment of Jonathan S. Wills to the
post OF supervisor Of the census foI
Delaware will be most unpalatable to
his whilom friends, the Union Re

show Of authority that these now in
dignant Republicans we're the very
ones themselves who first groomed
Mr.. Willis for the post. This was
however, before that gentleman had
left the moorings and started out on
a different course.-Dover Index.

FINAL ACTION To-NIGHT.

1t is probable that final action on
the resignation CT John Pyle as a
member Of the Board of Education
will be taken by that body at its meet
ing tonight. It is now announced
that the reason for Alr. Pyle desiring
to retire from the board is that he is
not in harmony with the body on the
matter Of erecting the new High
School, and thinks that the Board OF
Education exceeded its authority in
erecting a building without having the
money to pay for it.

PYLE's DESIGNATION.

We cannot see the sense of State
Senator John Pyle resigning from the
Board Of Public Education. If he is op-
posed to the policy OF a majority Of
his colleagues on the board, let him
state his objections publicly; place
himself upon record as voting against
what he believes to be wrong. and let
the other members take the RESPONSE
bility. He is only bound by his own
record. He might as we'll resign from
the State Senate because his voice and
vote are unavailing as to resign from
the Board Of Public Education.
The High School contract has been
let and the work is we'll under way.
Job or no job. it must be carried to
completion, for a contract is a contract,
and as binding on the municipality as
on an individual. Not that alone. Since
the award Of the contract our school
election has been held and most Of the
old members have been returned This
indicates that the taxpayers are not
especially wrought up against them,
for no issue was raised We are sorry
to find that Senator Pyle should over
look these important facts. He can
accomplish nothing by resigning, for
the project will go ahead to compile
ton whether he is on the board or OFF
of it.
We advise him to withdraw his resig-
nation, make his fight and abide by the
action of a majority of the board.
