Edinburgh Divine.

Export exposition he said: Il am more
than pleased by what I have seen to-
day. or course we abroad know what
a great nation the United States Is, but
those of us who are making our first
trip to this country were scarcely pre-

This exposition Is a truly wonderful

done by American manufacturers. Il
is a beautiful show. and / am happy

A HORSE THAT TALKS.
Beautiful Jim Key, From Kentucky, at the
Philadelphia Exposition.

AhAahriphAa IA EApOollou.
Philadelphia, Oct. "a horse that
knows more than was ever dreamed Of
in horse philosophy is exhibited on
the Philadelphia exposition Midway. in
an attractive building especially erect
ed for the purpose. This horse is Jim
Key. Jim is a beautiful equine won
der, the most intelligent and learned
horse in the world. He gives recep-
tions daily to large audiences. and is
doing more toward strengthening the
position of horses in the esteem and
respect Of mankind than all the hu-
manitarians in the universe.
Jim Key reads and writes, solves
arithmetic problems, operates a cash
register and rings any number OF fares
desired on a street car register. He
can manipulate a telephone, and by
movements of his lips appear to be
talking through It to the man or horse
at the other end Of the line. and do
innumerable other things requiring a
degree OF intelligence one would never
suspect a horses brain capable of de-
veloping.
Jim Key was bred in old Kentucky of
a pure Arabian dam, Lauretta, brought
from Arabia by the late lamented Bar
mum. The mare was known as the
Arabian Queen, and was originally the
property of Shiek Ahmeid. Jim Keys
sire was the Hamiltonian Volunteer,
known as the King Of Hamiltonians.

NEAR GLENDALE - TOMATOES
SELLING AT 61k AND z CENTS A

Ellendale. Del, Oct. 2.-The colored
peoples campmeeting, in Morris
Woods, has been successful beyond ex-
pectation. Last Sunday crowds came
from Milford, Seaford. Lewes and all
nearby towns. and their combined
noise made a mixture that made
Rome howl"
Two cars of tomatoes were shipped
from here to Seaford at z cents per bas-
ket, and one car to Millsboro at 6Ik
cents per basket. This closed the to-
mato season, such as was never known
before. The crop was fine, but there
was no market.
David Reed last week plowed under
a seven acre lot Of tomatoes that were
red with the fruit-the finest possible
10 produce, and this was general with
all farmers. No grower in this vicinity
received money sufficient from his to-
matoes to pay his phosphate bill to
produce the crop.
John B. Prettyman has bought
from Alfred Short the store he has oc-
cupied for twelve years. for the sum of
$l,lOO spot cash. Mr.. Prettyman has
sold his trotting horse to M. A. Webb
for $500. o'O

Judge Reads Withdrawal.

As intimated by the TIMES last week in
it, comments upon the causes which led to
the withdrawal Of Judge Read from the
congressional contest, hi, friends keenly
feel the injustice of another candidate in
terpo.ing from this county at this time.
Mr.. Read went to the convention last year
backed by the solid delegation from Wind
hsm county, togath sr with support from
o'her counties, SO that he lacked but few
vote, Of securing the nomination.
Two days before the state convention in
1896 which elected delegates to the national
republican convention the following tele-
gram was sent to Brattleboro:

On Tuesday elections we're held in II Of
the states, with results gratifying to the
republican party and the friends of the
administration. Ohio went republican by
fully $4,000, Massachusetts by $4,000 and
Iowa, Pennsylvania and South Dakota by
big majoritie,. Virginia, Nebraska, Miss,
issippi, Maryland and probably Kentucky
went democratic. The legislatures in New
Jersey and New York will be republican.

After my friend George had sent me
the announcement of his latest-his
fourth-engagement / had decided to re-
tain congratulations until the engagement
had been broken.
\ few weeks afterward / met him at
an excursion in company of his fancee
and future mother-in-law, but he didn't
seem to notice me: in fact, he had all he
could do to look out for his fancee's
as well as his mother-in-law's capes, um-
brellas, yalises, ETC., with which he was
piled up like some great travelling ac-
tress' valet.
Poor George!

Dillingham; for Congress.

The name of Hon. w. p. Dillingham; as
congressman from the second district oi
Vermont is winner, and one that should
satisfy all parties, sppease all factions and
give the state able representation in con-
gress.
Mr.. Dillingham; has been candidate
for Mr. Morrilrs seat in the senate, and
while we are mot aware he himself has ever
made any public avowal, some Of the news
papers supposed to be friendly to his can
didacy have stated that nothing less than a
seat in the senate would be accepted or
even considered. Until Mr.. Dillingham;
himself is heard from,w shall consider the
newspapers in error. Mr.. Dillingham;
ambition is laudable, and in every way
worthy OF one of the ablest and most re-
spected citizens OF the state, but we can
not believe the honored ex-governor will
let his personal ambition stand in the way
of his own best interests and those of our
own good state.
With the other candidates in the field
for senatorial honors, if Mr.. Dillingham; con-
tinues to be a candidate there is sure to be
hard fight with the chances very much
against him.
Send Mr.. Dillingham; to the house now
and at the proper time his friends can come
before the legislature and say this senator
has been courteously treated and sufficient
ly honored and we present for his successor
the name of candidate who has had con-
gressional experience and who is in every
way worthy and we'll qualified.
Mr.. Dillingham; has many warm friends
in this section of the state and in the event
of bis permitting the use of his name as a
candidate for congres, he will receive
the hearty and general support of all parts
Of the state.
Mr.. Dillingham; can be elected to the
house without raising finger, but whether
he can be elected to the senate at this time,
even after the most stubborn fight is ex-
ceedingly doubtful. Will he and his friends
accept the honor which the second district
will gladly confer? We believe they will.
