Young Man Kissing

William Lacey, Of Now Castle, Is miss

met with foul play. Recently he has beer
at work in Chester at night at the Chester
Pipe and Tube Mills and was struck on
the head with brick thrown by Andrew
Riley, burly colored man Of quarrel.
some nature.
The brick was thrown without provo.
cation and it knocked Lacey senscless and
cut four-inch cash in his head that
caused him much trouble for several days
thereafter. As soon as he was able to be
about he appeared before Mayor Jefferil
and had Riley arrested, who was held In
the sum Of 81, 900 bail for court. Several
attempts were made to got Lacey to settle
the case, but he would say to all who
spoke to him on the matter:
You have done all you can for me-
There Is no settlement
On Tuesday, October II, Lacey, while
at dinner, said that he would go to work
that night. About l.. As o'clock no left his
boarding house and has not been since
seen by those who have an interest in
him. Ernest Murray, Of $50 Hayes street,
wbero Lacey boarded says:
II have feared that he has been put out
of the way by someone. He has not re.
turned for his clothing and has a lot of 1t

The Trolley War. .

From the Sunday Star.
There is new phase to the trolley fight
between the rival companies.
Tho City Company the Brundywine
Springs Company and the Wilmington
Traction Company are ali fighting for the
use OF SIKH street and other thorough
fares of The city. and 1t Is expected the
street and sewer directors will announce
their decision Tuesday morning The
Brandywine Springs line has been in use
about u year but ends at the city limits,
because Of inability to got franchise to
use Sixth Street. Tho City Company
claims that exclusive right to operate q
railway in Wilmington. under its charter.
and is fighting the Springs Company on
that ground. Tho Springs line extends
from this city to Falkland, five miles
away, and Il survey has been made to Ken
nett Square and West Chestor, Pa, eight
miles further. This will open now ard
rich country TO Whining on trade which
is u powerful argument for this company
to havo the use OF Sixth street Tine hew
extension of the City Company to DO built
to MarshallIon will invade part Of the
Springs Company's territory. and is de.
signed to offset tho force Of the Springs
Company's argument.
The City Railway officials realize that II
they are not given the franchise now ap-
piled for, it will be an end to heir monop
oily of Wilmington streets. The Whining
ton Traction Companys fight Is being
made Tor the use Of certain Wilmington
streets, which also have been asked for by
tho City Railway Company. The fight
has aroused great public interest.

Why Tear up tn. Streets2

Mr.. Editor; Now that the Will
mlngton City Railway Company is
laying tracks on Monroe street from
Fourth to Eighth streets, people
are asking why they are allowed to
tear up one OF our best paved
streets? The papers say the COM
pany proposes to run the Maryland
avenue cars to Market street, via
Eighth, instead of Fourth, as they
are now running. The reason given
for this change is that there are
now three lines of cars operating
on Fourth street and but one line
on Eighth, and this change will dl-
vide the travel up somewhat. But
all who ride or west Fourth street,
know that there is not now, nor ever
has been, more than two lines OF
cars operating on it and if the
Maryland avenue line is withdrawn
there will be one OH Fourth and two
on Eighth street. A most absurd
condition, when we consider that
Fourth street is 60 feet wide and
Eighth street IS feet. Two double
lines of tracks could be laid on
Fourth street and leave more room
for wagons than now exists OH
Eighth street, with but single
track. As far as l can learn, no.
body wants this line built and run
IN that way. People living on
Eighth street donot want it, for an
other line will only add to the an
noyances and delays to which they
are daily sub ected by overcrowded
cars, coal and delivery wagons Of
every description. People on
Maryland avenue do not want it, for
a large proportion Of those who
travel on that line would rather
reach Market street at Fourth than
at Eighth, as they are now carried
into the heart Of the business part
OF the city, convenient to East
Fourth or New Castle cars. If our
city company will extend the line
up Monroe street to Eleventh. and
thence over Washington street
bridge, with transfer privileges at
Fourth and Monroe to go east, and
also at Delaware avenue and Elev-
enth to 20 north, they will render
splendid service to the public and
secure a large patronage. But
please, gentlemen, do not block up
narrow Eighth street with another
line. Give us five minute cars exist
ing lines running east and west and
and there will be no need OF build
ing another line OH Sixth street.
The travelling public will be much
better accommodated, you will car
ry more passengers and will save
many hundred dollars in cxpen.

BOERS WANT
TO SURRENDER.
This is the Report That
Comes from Cape Town
This Morning.

Cape Town, Oct. 23-It is rumor-
ed here this morning that Barkly
West, northwest Of Kimberley, has
been surrendered to the Beers with
out firing shot.
Cape volunteers, it is reported,
will be sent to relieve Kimberley.
London, Oct. 23.-A despatch
from Cape Town says that advices
received from Pretoria report Pres
ide1t Kruger as now being in favor
OF an unconditional surrender
1t is expected the Executive Coun-
Gil will meet to-day or tomorrow to
discuss the advisability Of such a
step.
The report, it is stated here, must
be accepted with reserve.
London, Oct 38.-lhe Daily News says:
at is not at all likely that two victories
portend speedy end of the war. Tho
Beers will fight on, and our army Of occu-
pi:ion must be hurried forward. The APP
palling loss of officers and men we have
sustained shows clearly that we have stiff
work.
The second British victory, that at
L indslaagte, in which the British losses,
t nugh heavy, were not out of proportion
to is Importance, may be regarded as
wing completely demoralizsd the we'll
laid, but ineffectively executed plans Of
the Beers. In the opinion Of military
critics, 1t will tend to bring tho war to
speedy end
General White 1t is hoped may have
been able by this time to relive Major
Yule ut Glencoe thus enabling him to
dial with General Jouberts column as
General Symous and General Franch
have already done with the others.
There is still to he guarded against, a
possible raid from the Drekenberg Range,
by Free State troops or from Vryheld,
through ZuZuland. The British plan will
therefore, to great extent. be still to re-
main on the defensive, as Sir George
White has an extended front, threatened
many points, to protect.
Cape Town, Oct ?3,-Glencoe Camp and
Dundee again have bson attacked. Flight
ing was renewed at Glencoe yesterday and
continued last night,
The Iransvaal main column from the
north. commanded by Commandment Jou-
bert, descended from the hills in tho early
morning and attacked the strongly on
trenched position Of the British.
After fierce fighting the Beers were re-
pulsed with heavy losses Three OF their
clnnons were captured.
Tho British calvary pursued the force OF
b Jers defeated on Friday and are engaged
with strong detachment Of the enemy GU
the maiE ncrth road.
The Beers are shcilng Dundee, about u
mile, northeast Of Glencoe. But the firing
is at longe range and ineffective.
The Boer loss in the fighting around
Glencoe on Friday is now estimated ut

When Sir John Steel, the noted Eng
fish sculptor, had the Duke Of Wellington
sitting for statue, he wanted to get him
to look warike. All his efforts were in
vain. however, for Wellington seemed,
judging by his face, never to have heard
Of Waterloo or Talavera. At last Sir
John lost patience somewhat, and this
scene followed:
las am going to make this statue of
your grace, can you not tell me what you
were doing before, say, the battle of Sal
amanca? Were you not galloping about
the fields cheering on your men to deeds
Of yalor by words and action?"

on the morning Of Salamanca then do me
