About 10 o'clock last night when the
storm was at its wOrsta Wilmington and
Northern freight train and delaware
Roud freight train came together ut the
intersection OF the two railroads near the
Delaware river pier. The spot where the
trains came together Is between Hazel
Del fair grounds and the pier.
The Delaware railroad train was ap-
preaching the crossing In charge OF II Con-
ductor, 1t is said, and with heavy train
Of local freight. The Wilmington and
Northern train was in charge of C0nduc-
tor Gallagher. Evidently tho trains crews
did not know that both trains were ap-
preaching the crossing at the Same time
or there must have been a misunderstnnd-
ing of signals, for tho crash occurred be-
tween the lo,notives Of each train. Tho
Delaware railroad locomotive was >wistea
about and thrown aside inCu aditch, while
tho Wilmington and Northern engine was
upturIed. The angine crew Of each leap
cd to save their lives, which accounts for
the absence Of injury to any OF them.
Three cars Of tho Delaware train, one
containing local freight, another sheep,
and the third produce, were hurled from
the rails. None Of the sheep were killed,
it is said, although they had huddled to-
gether in group.
The nearest communication to be had
with this city was from New Castle. but
the telephone wires were out OF services. A
Wilmington Il Northern train crew came
to this city on u tugboat, and the Mary.

1t is not realized here how proud-in-
deed arrogant-thc Chinese are. The idea
that any other race is equal to their own
is one that cannot find place in their
brains. They believe all foreigners to be
sort of savages. They look at European
men and women mixing together and be-
lieye that these savagcs have no morals,
but live in Il rough sort of promiscuity.
They look at our dress, our mon with
short coats and neither garments showing
their two legged forms, our women actu-
ally clearly indicating their waists and
much of tho outline Of their figure, and
they believe we arc without ,decency.
They do not zee us observing their core
monial, and they believe we arc without
manners.
A recent minister, accredited to Ger
many, was talking to Sir Robert Hart be-
fore leaving Picking and, on the latter's
regretting his lonely condition without
his wife, said to him, "Ah, but, of course,
YOU have No. 2" Sir Robert proceeded
to explain that such a course was impos-
sible to him, as it would make his wife
very angry and indeed arouse the sover-
cign displeasure of his queen. The Chinese
diplomatist pattcd him good humoredly
on the shoulder, saying LET us hope by
longer intercourse with us you may be-
GENE moro civilized.

the OLD WAY.

We say the old way, but really II IL a

consider the first step to take In attempt
ing to cure indigestion Ia to diet either by
selecting certain foods and rejecting others
or 10 greatly diminish the quantity usually

tial.
The almost certain failure Of the star
walton cure for dyspepsia has been proven
time and again, but still the moment dys-
pepsIa makes its appearance course Of
dioting Is at once advised.
All this is radically wrong. 1t Is foolish
and urscientific to recommend dieting or
starvation to man suffering from dyS-
pepsia, because indigestion itself starves
every organ and every nerve and every
fibre In the body.
What the dyspepic wants Is abundant
nutrition, which means plenty OF good.
wholesome we'll cooked food and sOme-
thing to assist tho weak stomach to d.
gest It, This Is exactly the purpose for
which Stuart'a Dyspepsia Tablets arc a.
dapted and this Is the method by which
they cure the worst cases OF dyspapsln. IN
other words the patient cats plenty OF
wholesome food aud Stuart's dyspepsia
Tablet, digest 1t for him. In this way tho
system is nourished and the overworkod
stomach res:oI, because the tablets will
digest the food whether the stomach
works or not. One Of these tablets will
digest 300 grains of meat or eggs

Marshallton, Del, June 10, 1899.
Mr.. Vermont wish to state to
you that the money bag | lost on the
I'D day Of March, containing two
ten and one five dollar notes,
with the balance in silver $3O.3l
has at last been found. 1t
was lost on the road leading from
Newark to Wilmington, between
MIR. II. Pcnnock's and Mr. Calvin
McCallster's residences. Mr.. PEN
mock and his family were out walk
ing few evenings ago and his little
boy found an old rag and threw it
in the ditch. Mr.. Pennock picked
it up and on examining it, found the
contents and came to find me and l
told him what kind of money was
in it, and he gave the same to ne.
1t had laid in the road for three
months, with wagons passing over
it every day, until it was so nearly
worn out that it looked like an old
rag. The paper money was worn
so that YOU could hardly tell the
number of the notes and the silver
was all bent with wagons passing
over it. Yours,

Iron Bridge for Seventh Street,

The Levy Court will build an iron
bridge across the Brandywine creek
at Seventh street, to take the place
of the cid wooden structure, which
now spans the stream and which
is considered unsafe. The new
structure will be 230 feet long and
will turn both ways with hand pow
er. The committee has not yet de.
clded how wide the bridge will be,
but it will be either 80 or 10 feet.
1t is estimated the cost will be be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000.
The bridge will connect Moylin
avenue on the north side and Fourth
street on the south side. Bids will
be received at the Court House until
June 80.

lYNN'S FLOATING BRIDGE.
In Use For n Century and Growing
Better All the Time.

In Use For n Century and Growing
Better All the Time.
A now set of three inch planks is re-
quired every third year In replanking the
floating bridge on Glcnmere pond. Few
people of the hundreds who cross the
bridge daily have any idea of its great
thickness, which has been proved by re-
cent soundings to be as much as II feet In
some places Although so much thicker
and heavier than when first built, it seems
to have lost none of its flexibility and al
ways adapts itself instantly to any changes
in the level of the water.
Floating bridge is one of the curiosites
of Lynn, and it is claimed to be the only
structure of its kind in the world. In
1903 bridge of somewhat similar design
was built across Lake Quinsignmond, near
Worcester, but 1t was constructed simply
of two tiers of logs covered with planks
and was never satisfactory. Tho Lynn
bridge, on the other hand has been in CON
slant use for nearly century and Is
stronger now than ever, as the wood does
not rot under water, and the pine logs
which form the foundation are as firm as
on the day when they were hewed and put
together.
Captain Moses Brown was the originator
of the idea Of thus bridging Collins pond,
as it was then called. In March, 1909, o
charter was granted to the Salem Turn
pike md Chelsea Bridge corporation, and
the bridge was completed in 1904 at Il cost
of sos, 400. A diver has Investigated the
foundations Of the structure and has found
that the original bridge was made Of five
layers of pine, laid at right angles to each
othor. The first two layers Of pine logs wcro
on one side and the upper three of hewn
timber one foot square, the whole secured
together by three inch bowels and covered
with planking ga feet ihick.
The bridge is 81 feet long, 2s feet widc
and the pond which it crosses is about II
acres in area and about "a feet above the
sea level. The bed of the pond appears to
be u bed of quicksand, and it would be
very difficult to build u road around tho
pond without making q very long detour,
owing to the DOGGY nature of the soil.
The bridge Is kept from tipping over by
being moorcd at the ends, imbedded in
long trenches dug in the shores of the
pond at the approaches. Boston Tran

A Model BottIing Plant.

Hartman e. Fchrenbach's new
bottling plantlocated opposite their
brewery, is one of the most COM
plete establishments in the country.
it was built to accommodate their
increasing business for bottled beer
which is shipped to all parts OF the
country. Never in their history has
the output been so large or the de-
mand for their beer been so general.
They are making numerous improve
ments in the interior of their brew
cry, to enable them to keep up with
the demand. A new and commodious
stable has been built, with all the
latest improvements, to accommo-
date the draft horses used III their
business. The management de-
serves the praise that has been
showcred upon it. They have put
brewing Of cream ale on the mar
ket that is pronounced par excel
lent by those who are judges OF this
old time drink, which is highly re-
commended by physicians for inva-
lids.

Iknew yea drew all hearts to You
To hold them in dislain,
And, teaching men the way to WOO,
You let them WOO in vain,
knew TO worship at your feet
Mere prudence would forbid,
And yet sought and found you sweet
And loved, as others did.
In matchless style with many vile
You played Il charmer' 5 part
Till, witless ofyour craft and guile,
showed yoifall my heart;
Then, lightly meeting love with scorn,
or me YOU soon were rid
And left me, hopeless and forlorn,
To sigh, as others did.
Now well l know one may outgrow
Full many greater care.
But then thought no human woe
Could equal my despair.
My hopes foregonc, my life undone,
The cruel fates child.
Then--met my own, loved, wooed and won
And wed, as others did
