breezy, bustling Boston widow has tied
up the dowery SO that they can only spend
the interest. Mendoza, u money lender
advises thom to secure a divorce, so that
Florence can receive her fortune and they
can Immediately remarry and spend the
money. This is agreed and tho Vicompte
writes u letter that is to compromise him

clinch matters there is bogus quarrel de-
signed to bait, the young BRIDES mother

TAKE the past history of the
Democratic party for IS years in
Delaware and it is enough to make
one laugh to read what the Every
Evening has to say about that par
ty. We here reproduce it:
..It is generally conceded, although
the actual facts OF the transaction
are not yet public property, that
the real object Of the "snake" gam
bling bill which was sonearly foist-
ed upon the people of Delaware was
to open the doors in this State to
notorious race track gambling inter
ests in this vicinity.
These interests have been hover
ing around the Delaware Legisla-
ture for years, in futile endeavor
to obtain recognition and encourage
ment in the laws of the State. At
one campaign of recent years, it
was said that the representatives
of the gambling interests offered to
the managers Of the Democratic
party, large sum of money in re-
turn for AN assurance of the desired
legislation at the session of the
legislature then to be chosen. 1t
was known at the time that large
Republican corruption fund was
being expended in the interests of
the Republican party, and certain
Democrats we're DESTROYS of accept
ing the gamblers offer, for the pur-
pose Of being able to counterfeit the
effect of the Republican money by
Fighting the devil with fire. y
The better element of the Demo-
cratic party, however, refused the
overture, preterring to make the
campaign one Of ''manhood against
money" and to trust to the honest
sentiment of the people for victory,
even preferring defeat to victory I'M
der such disreputable influences.
The high stand taken by these
Democratic leaders in that campaign
is to be commended. If all politi-
cal influences in Delaware had been
as incorruptible, the State would
not have been disgraced by the
revelations of the recent session of
the General Assembly, including
charges of bribery, as well as at
tempts to sneak through pernicious
legislation by underhand methods. y
The above is certainly rich read
ing matter.

9he ORDERS Funeral Benefit Associa-
tion to Meet In Philadelphia.
Philadelphia, May 4.--The eighteenth
annual convention of the Junior Amer
lean Mechanics Funeral Benefit asso-
citation. of the United Statee will be
held in Odd Fellows Temple, this city,
on Tuesday, May 9. The local recep-
tion committee has prepared q very
interesting program for the entertain
ment of the delegates on Monday, May
8, prior to the meeting of tho conven-
ton. The delegates will be taken on
drive through Paramount park and
the romantic Wissahickon, Which has
been aptly termed ''the Switzerland Of
America" The drive will continue
through historic Germantown, where a
short visit will be paid to the Concord
school house, the birthplace of the Jr.
o. U. A. M. This old building is one
of the many relics Of revolutionary
days still standing in Germantown,
and is of special interest to every
Junior owing to it's connection with
the early history Of the order. Return
ing the party will arrive at Odd Fell
lows Hall about p. M, where they
will partake of banquet, after which
an entertainment and smoker will be
given, continuing until the wee sma'
hours"
For the information of delegates the
committee has prepared very hand
some souvenir IN TIE shape of book
let, that contains many interesting
facts about Philadelphia and its nu-
merous points of interest.
The convention itself promises to be
very interesting one. The election
of officers will no doubt, be the burn
ing question of the day. Those whose
terms expire are: President. CT
H. Harris; vice president, H. H. P
ers: treasurer, Samuel B. Mench; di-
rectors, Theodore P. Rees, F. A. Sorber

Fugitive Takes Refuge in a Mine.


Dubois, Pa, May Axe Lewis, the
colored man who shot Officer Mcclure
at Patton tunnel, three miles from
Punxsutawney, Tuesday night, is now
hiding in coal mine near the scene
of the shooting. He was given hot
chase by officers and posse of citi-
Zens and took refuge in the mine.
The mine opening was guarded during
the night, and no one can be found
who dares enter. Lewis was &C
companied into the mine by colored
companion, who was with him when
he did the shooting. During the night
the latter come out and surrendered.
He narrowly escaped lynching. the ex-
cited citizens mistaking him for the
assassin. Lewis is well armed. Of
ticers are still guarding the mine open
ing and will maintain their watch until
the desperate man is starved Or forced
out by other means. Officer Mcclure
is still living.

A LADY owning numerous houses

A LADY owning numerous houses
in our city said that she never had
more demand for them, that she
could rent twice as many if she had
them. She has not an idle house,
something that has not occurred be-
fore in the last six years. Real es-
tate in Wilmington is indeed looking
up and desirable houses are in de-
mand, while idle stores on Market
street have been rented to better
advantage than for years. Our city
has at last awakened to the fact
that the times are better and pros
perity has reached us.
