Says the Philadelphia Times: 1.-THE
one thing already assured is that the
Democratic State convention to be
held on Wednesday will be attended by
the foremost representatives of tho
party from all sections of the State, and
as there is wisdom in multitude of
counselors there is every reason to hope
that the convention will be wisely
guided both in its selection of candi-
dates and its declaration of princi-
Piles. - This is encouraging. The
Pennsylvania Democrats have stood in
sore need of wisdom and common sense
in their political deliberations for the
past ten years Or so. y fefta

which ends with the month. The OBJ
ject of holding the one session was to
allow the children to go home rather
than to remain in the warm weather
of the afternoons, although today has
been much cooler than numerous of its
predecessors. 1t is likely to be warm
enough. however, before the month is

The victim was negro named William

with farmer named Rufus Hubbard,
who wanted them to pay debt they
owed by working on his farm. They
went to his house, shot and killed his
wife, and wounded the husband and a

Sheriff Taylor is entitled to the
thanks of the citizens of New Castle,
and of visitors to that city, for his
efforts to keep the streets clean and the
city and county buildings in good con
dition, through the labor of prisoners
in the Jail. There is no law for en-
ploying prisoners in this manner, it is
true; but neither is there any statut.
that prohibits it. The sheriff is using
his judgment in the matter, and as
good results are obtained. none will
question the wisdom of his course. II

Little Marion Clarke, the baby girl
who was kidnapped from her home in
New York City by gang of vile con-
spirators, is ill with measles and it is
feared the attack may provo fatal. In
such distressing event the kidnap-
ress may find themselves on trial for
murder of the first degree instead of
kidnapping. 1t is held by the courts
that persons engaged in crime intend,
in law, all the evil consequences of
that crime, no matter whether they
actually intend them or not. From
this point of view, it will be held that
the fiends who planned and executed
the abduction of Baby Clarke intended
all the evil results of their act, even
the death Of their victim, and there
fore will be guilty of deliberate murder
should the child die. And none will
have sympathy for such fiends shoulc

Less than thousand votes were polled
at the school election on Saturday, not
withtanding there we're contests in
several of the wards. The largest vote,
TIA, was cast in the Ninth ward,
although there was NO opposition to
the recollection of DIR. e. G. Shortlidge,
whose faithful services for years fully
entitle him to this honor. Evidently
the people were determined to be ready
in case opposition should develop at
the last moment. The election resulted
in some changes, hut in none that
threaten to impair the efficient manage
ment of our public school affairs. A
regretable feature of the election was
the small number of women who availed
themselves Of their right to vote, only
46 out of total of probably two
thousand The women of Wilmington
undoubtedly have sincere interest in
the cause Of public education, but ii
would be much better for them to
make public demonstration Of their
interest by availing themselves Of their
right to vote at school elections. Cir.
cumstances might easily prevail that
would render their votes of vital i'm.
portanee, and they should always be ii
readiness.

Neatly printed volumes containing
the report of Delaware's financial
affairs for 1897 and 1898 have just been
issued by the late State treasurer, W.
M. Ross.
The main figures of this report have
already been made public, but there
are some features about it that will
we'll bear repetition. The treasurer
shows at the outset that the States
financial condition is of the healthiest
character. The total Indebtedness
December 3lst, 1898, was eS19, $50. The
total assets, including an item of S49,
254. 30 cash in the treasury, were
81. ITO, 094. 90, showing an excess of
assets over liabilities of $3.50, 344. 20.
The Understanding assets amount to q
81, o2D, $40, and their sterling character
is attested by the fact that this amount,
representing the market value of these
assets, is s84, $40 in excess Of their par
value. 1t will thus be seen that the
State is entirely solvent, having more
| than it owes by a comfortable margin.
A feature of the report that is not SO
gratifying is this: For the year 1898
| the disbursements exceeded the receipts
by SAT, ll0.07, while for the previous
| year the receipts exceeded the disburse-
ments by 1928, 80 so. Such a reversal
Of good financiering, if continued,
would soon dissipate the State $ margin
of assets over liabilities and crowd
heavily upon the total Of the former.
| But it is not expected that the I'M
fortunate deficit of 1895 will again
occur. 1t was largely due to the OK.
penses Of the Constitutional Convention
which will not soon again be n public
charge, and of the extra session of the
Legislature Of 1897, which was deac
loss so far as practical results are con
cerned. These two extraordinary item'
aggregated over s62, 900, or enough t,
cover the deficit Of the year and leav,
margin on the right side of abou
$15, 200.
So it will be seen that notwithstand
ing the unfavorable financial showing
of the last year, there is no reason t,
fear a similar state Of affairs at tn
close Of the current year. With n
Constitutional Convention on hand, tn
ordinary current revenues ought to b
sufficient to meet the current expenses
, These receipts should show a materia
increase this year, by reason of tn
revenue that is being brought into tn
State by the General Incorporation law
! to say nothing of what may attend th
Adams Tax law. Altogether, the finar
, cial condition Of the State is such tina
/ the taxpayers need not lose any slice
. worrying over it,
: The report contains much other il
: formation of an interesting character

9 funds in detail. 1t is handsome

Catarrh.

Catarrh is one of the most obstinate
diseases, and hence the most difficult
to get rid Of.
There is but one way to cure it.
The disease is in the blood, and all the
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swift's Spe-
cific cures Catarrh permanently, for it is
the only remedy which can reach the
disease and force it from the blood.

THE DUTCH HOUSEWIFE.
Her Love of Home, Says All English
Writer, Comes Very Near Akin
to Worship.

The Dutch woman is before and above
all things housewife. Indeed, her
love of home comes very near akin to
worship, and the greatest compliment
that can be paid to her is to praise the
neatness and sweetness of the house
that is her kingdom. She is famous all
the world over for her remarkable
cleanliness, and even in the very poor
quarters of the cities, where the houses
are small and crowded together, the
windows are daintily decked with cur
tains of spotless white, the rooms we'll
swept and tidy, the humble furniture
carefully. busted and polished. This de-
sire for cleanliness, in fact, almost
amounts to craze, and housewives
and servants alike evince strong par
TALLY for scrubbing, cleaning and
washing. Even in well-to-do families
a domestic training is considered nat
ural and necessary adjunct to the
daughters education, and each has GER
tain household duties apportioned to
her. She is likewise taught: to make her
own dresses, to knit her own stockings,
and to keep her wardrobe in repair
Nor does she shirk these duties as it is
to be feared SO many of her English sis
tiers do; on the contrary, they are car
ried out faithfully, cheerfully, and as
matter of course, and it is due to this
excellent training in her girlhood that
the Dutch woman makes so model
housewife. We might go further and
say that it is through this training
that the Dutch girl has earned the rep
utation of being *'free and light OF
heart, and stranger to: the feeling of
ennui,'' since she is always healthful-
ly and helpfully employed.-T Girls
