WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER a., $500

DIR. J. PAUL LuKENs. has received
W6rd from the State Chemist at
Delaware College, that the water
coming from the spring at Fourth
and Franklin streets is impure.
Some of the residents in that vicin-
ity say that it is a scheme OF the
new Ice company to divert the stream
of water tor their use. Such nom
sense IL hard for intelligent persons
to reconcile themselves to. With
auch an outbreak Of typhoid fever
IN that section of the city, which
has been healthy heretofore, has set
the doctors to work to find out the
cause. They think they have dis.
covered the cause and say that the
spring water. which has hitherto
been considered pure and wholesome
is contaminated with germs of ty-
phoid. Matthew Gallagher, resid-
ing on West Fourth street, yester-
day lost daughter, while three
more Of his children are down with
the typhoid fever. Samuel Durney,
on Third street has 3 children down
with the fever. Frank White on
West Fourth street, has two chill
dren sick. Harry Brown on Fourth
street has one child sick and James
w. Shaffer has his IL year old son
lying very low, from the indirect
effects Of drinking at the spring at
Fourth and Franklin streets. We
are sure that DIR. Paul Lukens has
no interest in the ice company, but
only an interest in the welfare and
health OF our citizens.

ADMIRAL DEWEY has arrived on
our shores and he was given a roy al
welcome by our citizens yesterday.
AS the flagship Olympia made her
way up the tortuous ship channel,
the big guns at Fort Hancock
doomed out an Admiral's salute,
which was replied to by the Olym-
pia with the inch rapid fire guns
that worked such havoc at Manila.
At soon as the vessel entered Sandy
Hook bay and dropped anchor near
the southwest spit, her long voyage
around the world was over and at
last Dewey was IN the country; ne
left a Commodore, to return with the
highest naval office in the gift Of the
country. The Olympia was hardly
at anchor before she was surround
ed by small boats and every tug
within radius of a mile was
screechlng out a noisy welcome.
New York is Dewey crazy and in
tends to give the hero Of Manila,
such royal welcome as only the
Americans can 6 i've. The New
York papers issued extras with the
largest letters possible announcing
the arrival of the Admiral. Bust
ness will be practically suspended
from Thursday until Saturday.

Norfolk. Va. Sept. 27--The visit of
the big Virginia delegation to Wash
ington to secure the presence of the
Olympia and the North Atlantic squad
ron in Hampton Roads early In Oc-
tober has borne fruit. Assistant Sec
Rotary Of the Navy Allen notified SEN
ator Martin. of Virginia, that the
North Atlantic squadron will be III
Hampton Roads between the I'd and
9Th Of October. This is construed to
mean that the Olympia will be one OF
the warships in the squadron. The
occasion is to be made a grand holi-
day.

Girls Costume with stylish Bodice Decor
alton and Skirt with Tunic Effect,
Hints by May Manton.

Dressy frocks for young girls exhibit the

blue cashmere Is bere stylishly trimmed
with guipure lace, edged with ruchings of
blue satin ribbon. This body Is supported
by fitted Innings, the upper parts OF which
are smoothly covered with lace over silk
in black and front to simulate Il pointed
yoke. A full vest portion Of white taffeta
is gathered and applied between tho edges
of the over fronts.
The bodice decoration, made OF lace
over taifota is finished on its free edges be-
fore being placed over the waist. 1t is
Joined to the lower edge OF yoke under
ribbon ruchiug, and forms n pretty circu-
lar bertha and revere that meet in point
at the neck in front Both front and back
have becoming fulness at the waist line,
and he closing is made Invisibly with
hooks aud eyes in center back The two
seam sleeves are correct in shape and style
with slight fulncss gathered at the top
and pretty points over the haLds,
The stylish skirt consists Of d narrow
front gore that extends in n circular
fiounce, which ls Joined to circular upper
portions that meet in center back seam.

the lining only, and the material trimmed
on the edge to form real tunic. The full
ness ut the top is ARRANGED in deep I'M
DERIVING plnits at the back that n.eet over
The plachet i'll center.
The costume is quite fancitul in design,

OF plain WOODEN goods Of harmonious col =
oring, with bias folds or rows OF velvet for

of the lace here shown. Other combina
lions will be suggested by individual taste
and may be satisfactorily used In remodel.
