THE span OF LIFE.

Tomorrow afternoon and night
at the Opera House that unique and
highly successful play, The Span
of Life will be the attraction. The
piece is melo drama of intense in
tcrest and -allews excellent scope
tor scenic display and highly dra-
matte situations. We are informed
that at no time during the perform
ance does the interest lag for an in
slant. There is enough comedy in
tcrwoven to break the monotony
and furnish food for laughter. The
company presenting the play this
season is spoken OF as being Il
better one than any which has
not been seen in this play. In the
third act the famous living bridge,
from which the title of the play is
derived, is given. Mrs. Blunt and
her child are taken prisoners by
the villain, Leech who has become
leader among the Arab slave
hunters. ALFRED as Arabs, Blunts
friends take him before Leech as
poiSoner. AS soon as Leech turns
his back, Blunt and his wife and
child are released. They fly tothe
mountains. Blunt's friends cross
a chasm by means of bridge. Ere
it is reached by Blunt with his wife
and child, the Arabs appear
and throw the bridge into
the chasm just as the tugitives
reach it. Then is formed "The
Span of Life and the heroine and
her child cross over.

BEGS TO BE
WHIPPED,

Dover, Del, April Ito decide Wa
ger, rs to whether or not Sheriff Wharton
has the right ito whip any free man.
James NJ. Bernard, Of Philadelphia, has
written TO the Sheriff, asking that he be
whipped at the post on next whipping
day, April 20.
His bet is with Conrad ,Henry, also OF
Philadelphia, aud in hiI lettor he says:
"1f the sheriff backs Henry's arguments
and has the nerve to do it, l will allow
him to place me at the post and give me
twenty lashes
II Will ask him 10 punish me on whip
ping day as cannot waste any time, but
| will allow him ali tho necessary time to
dismiss the spectators and prepare pri-
vatc session, so that he may not injure his
reputation nor make an unnecessary fuss
in the papers,
"lf the Sheriff chooses to place me in
the pillorv for ono hour or less, let him
snow that he can do IL l promise per-
fect submission, and will no moro hcsi-
tate to put on the pants used on ilogging
criminals. or to place my neck and wrists
in the pillOry thnn to stand Mt the post"
The mon will doubtless have their jour-
ney from Philadelphia for their pains, for
the county officials object to the post being
u.ed either for exhibition purposes or for
tho decision Of wagcrs.

Big Opportunities for Capital.
William Lawton, the President
OF the Board of Trade, says that
right here in Wilmington, within
ten miles of the city hall, there is
an opportunity now awaiting the
man or corporation who has the en-
terprise and the capital to take ad-
vantage of 1t, the golden opportunity
OF the present age. Some years ago
one of the greatest mineralogists
of the world, an expert whose testi-
mony is practically in(allible, said:
within ten miles OF the city hall
there is to be found the finest de.
post Of clay in and about Whining
ton, to make everything from the
finest china tea cups to the COM
monest drain pipe, and it is to be
found in such quantities as to be
practically inexhaustible. In va
rious parts of the country big paint
companies have been very success
full using clay highly charged with
iron oxide as body for their
paints There are immense de-
posits of that clay in Wilmington
and it is surprising that no COM
pany has taken advantage of our
wealth IN that respect and establish
a'plant here. Clay OF that kind
that contains large percentage Of
ierric oxide makes a good quality
of paint for outside use on roofs,
fences, barns, ETC., and we could
supply the world with it for years
TO come. The clay for manufacture
ing terra Gotta pipe is also to be
found here. In fire clay we have
unreasonable deposits of a first
class quantity suitable for furnace
Innings and in fact Wilmington's
resources are unbounded.

In "Why Smith Left Home, -
which comes to the Opera House on
Saturday night George II. Broad
hurst has written farce that is
undeniably clever. In its dialogue
il is distinct step in advance over
anything he has yet done. The
fun of the play is extracted almost
entirely from the complications into
which smith and his wife are
hurled shortly after marriage by
the arrival of four of Mrs. Smith S
relatives to make Il visit. Cases Of
mistaken identity ensure, and for a
time Mrs. Smith IS made to believe
that her husband is not true TO her.
Everything comes right in the
end however, and it is not until
then that Smith really does leave
home.
The announcement of his inten.
ton to leave forms the tag to the
play The people engaged to illus.
trate this latest Broadhurst farce

crts, Gilbert Gardner, Nell Maskell

DUNSTAFFNAGE
AT BRBAKWATER
Captain Forbes Safely
Lands His Vessel Al
ter a Trip of
5000 Miles.

In a disabled and almost sinking
condition, with her forepeak full Of
water and so far down that every
sea washed her decks to the waist,
the big British bark Dunsta image,
arrived safely at the Delaware
Breakwater yesterday afternoon.
Captain Forbes had brought his
vessel over 1000 miles in this terri
Bile plight. All Of the crew are I'M
injured and the original cargo, con-
sisting of l2S,S42 cases of refined
petroleum with which she sailed
from Philadelphia, on February 9,
is intact.
The Dunstatfnage was bound for
Hiogo. Japan. All went we'll with
her until March 6, when she cached
latitude 2 north, % west. Then she
collided with and sank the British
steamer Verona, boundfrom Buenos
Ayres, for Hamburg. Two OF the
Veronas crew were drowned, but
the others were picked up by a
passing steamer and landed in
Europe.
After the collision the Dunstaff-
name was found to have her entire
bow smashed in and 1t seemed GER
tain that she would founder. The
water-tight bulxhe ad, however, sep
arating the forespeak from the hold
remained tight, andCaptain Forbes
decided to run for Barbados and
to make temporary repairs which
would enable him to return safely
to Philadelphia. After the incident
nothing was heard of the big bark
for more than a month.
She never reached Barbados
and in the interval was reinsured
at an additional premium. Finally
her owners abandoned all hope of
her safety. There was great re-
joicing when she arrived here safe
ly yesterday. She will be towed
up the river today. Her cargo
must be discharged before she can
be repaired.

WEDNESDAY. ARPlL IS. 1000.

THE New York Post, commenting
on the decision of the Senate Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections,
to exclude Clark of Montana and
Caldwell of Kansas IRON the Sen ate
for bribery, says Addicks would be
treated the same way if elected.
Admitting this conclusion to be well
founded, Addlcks opponents would
do we'll to cease their strife and
elect opponents to the Democrats,
requiring no pledge but the favoring
of Mckinley and the support Of the
National Republican platform. 1t
is very probable that Addicks could
not be elected Senator, under
any circumstances, but if it
should turn cut otherwise, the re-
tusal of the committee to seat him
would settle his ambition for all
time. This would be the easiest
way to get rid OF him as candi.

Democrats, but it won't suit Re-
publicans who wish to exert an IN

must be adopted, or the Republicans
will not elect a Governor in our
State until Addicks or some other
aspirants for Office withdraw from
