FEELS encyclopedia defines the
word lottery as follows: "a game
Of hazard, in which by the payment
Of a small sum, one has the chance
Of obtaining a considerable prize.
The origin of lottery may be found
in the custom inaugurated by the
Roman Emperor Augustus, of dis
trihuting at his feats sealed pack
cts (sortis convivials) similar in
appearance. but containing orders
for articles of very different value.
In the middle ages, the same mode
was adopted by the Italian mer-
chants in the disposition of their
wares"
The merry war which has been
inaugurated in our city goes on and
it remains to be seen how the word
is interpreted by our authorities.
ONE hundred and nine dollars is
asked for Wilmington Coal Gas
Stock, the par value of which is
$50 share. In 1897 the stock sold
down as low as 800 per share.
With the present outlook. said a
we'll known local capitalist, the
stock, will, in the near future, look
cheap at $50 per share. There are
others who do not agree with him,
but all the same the gas stock is
well held and very little of it is for
sale. Its good investment.

London. March 1.-The Times prints a
copy OF the letter dated jan "a which
Lloyd Osborne, United States consul to
Apia, addressed to Herr Rose, the Ger
man consul at the time of the conflict of
the authorities over Herr Grevesmuhl of
Apia, who was arrested and fined for
breaking the windows of the supreme
court room. In the letter Mr. Osborne
protests against the unjustifiable SLAM
ders and insults which the Germans had
heaped upon Chief Justice Chambers. and
declared that "a proper regard for the
dignity of the American flag demands
that l shall decline further intercourse
with you or with the president of the mu
nicipality CDr RaffeD. except in writing,
until an apology with a retracton is
given"
Mr.. Maxse, the British consul at Apia,
sent with Mr.. Osborne's letter a note
adopting the American consul's views. The
Times says of the correspondence: ''These
letters indicate that a dangerous point
of tension has been reached"

Replying to Colonel Davis. witness
said that where the troops under his
observation could get both sorts the re-
frigerator beef tended to displace the
native beef.
The afternoon session opened with a
surprise for the witnesses. On the long
table in the court room were eight
plates with various stews and COM
pounds of beef, some of canned beef
fresh from the factory, some of beef
that had gone to Cuba and back and
others of fresh beef from the Washing
ton market, but prepared as nearly as
possible in the same way that the can
ned beef was packed at the factory.
The enlisted men who testified yester-
day were brought in and asked to pick
out if they could. the various sorts of
beef. The men disagreed to some ex-
tent, but when Major Jesse Lee asked
each of them if the beef shown them
here was prepared the same way as
that they had had in Cuba and whether
the plates We're fair sample Of what
they had used during the campaign
they unanimously agreed that it did
not look like the same and did not seem
to be a fair sample of the campaign
beef in any way.
