BY the opening up of the trolley
roads to New Castle, Brandywine
Springs and Chester, hundreds of
visitors are brought to our city
daily. These strangers spend
money and our store keepers get
the benefit. The opening Of the
trolley down the State, to connect
with the New Castle trolley would
be big thing for our city as we'll
as the travelling public. There are
hundreds of down State people, who
if they could reach Wilmington by
trolley would do their shopping
here instead of going on to Phila-
delphia. The temptations to shop
in Philadelphia, when the fares
are so low, takes hundreds of dol
lars out of the State that would
otherwise be spent among our mer-
chants. Our merchants are fully
alive to the times and goods can be
bought as cheap in Wilmington, in
some cases even cheaper, than in
Philadelphia. There is no reason
why our merchants should not sell
to every resident in Delaware who
has to 60 into the market for cloth
ing, provisions or anything in the
merchantile line. The live mer-
chants can be found by consulting
the columns of the dailies of this
city.

ENGLAND means that Paul Kru-

govern the Beers or fight. There
is no doubt but Kruger will fight.
Joseph Chamberlain, Colonial Sec
rotary of England, in the House OF
Lords SAID: 1--WE recognize the
grievances of the Outlanders, and
have said that these grievances are
not merely themselves serious
cause for interposition, but are a
source of danger to the whole of
South Africa. That England spre-
dominance is menaced by the action
OF the Transvaal in refusing to re-
dress the grievances or give consd-
GRAFTON to requests to redress the
grievances or.pay any attention to
requests hitherto put in the most
moderate language OF seazerln
power" 1t was hoped that the war
cloud in the Transvaal had blown
over, but such does not appear to be
a fact. 1t is now fight or compro-
mise and Kruger will fight.

Cremation in Japan.

A Consular report from the British
Legation in Toxic contains some curl
Gus information on cremation as prac-
ticed in Japan. 1t is stated that the
body in its rough wooden coffin Is
placed on a thick gridirop extending
nearly the whole length of the cham
ber. and firewood is piled into a recess
at the back. With forced draught.
the heat generated by this when light
ed is sufficient within few hours
TO completely consume the body. An
average of something over seventy
hounds of wood is required for COM
plete cremation. though this amount
varies with the body to be burned. 1t
is. for instance, found that fat people
ourn far more easily than thin, and
women who have died in childbirth
are most easily cremated. while per
sons who have died of consumption
reouire more time and more wood
than any others. The time varies from
three TO six hours.-Pall Mall Ca

'T am informed from an unques-

of Iloilo, the Spanish general tried to
induce the German consul at Manila
and the German vice e.consul at Iloilo
to take charge of the protection of the
private interests of the Spaniards.
"The two consuls wired to Berlin
for instructions and received the fol-
lowing answer:
"The German empire, being neu-
tral power, is not in position to take
charge of functions which could easily
be construed as partiality for Spain.
All we endeavor to obtain in the Phil
lipines is protection and unrestricted
movement of our commerce. Since
we see that both are secured under
the United States flag, we are fully
confident that there will never arise
situation which would cause us to de-
viate from the strictly neutral attitude
observed by us to this day"
