There was a tear in his voice and the

greetings with them, became terribly

where he sought to derive inspiration
by studying with his fathers cap

Jaded actors who had in their day
supported many a dramatic star, and
Its young recruits who were absorbed
in their ambitions, was breathlessly
silent. One or two of them were al

a chair to represent the exquisite
mother-of-pearl cradle of his baby

BORDERS UPON RIDICULOUS.
New York WORLDLY

Mr.. Carnegie defends Mr.. Mckinley
as a good and great and strong man
who has been led into what Mr.. Carne-
gle himself denOunces as crime not
because he didn't know il was crime, -
but because he was not able to with
stand party pressure. Then Mr.. Car
negie goes on to eulogize the party that
brought this pressure to bear upon the
great and good and wise and strong
Mckinley, and to say that that party
may wisely be trusted to find the lost
path and return to it," Such a display
of simple, childlike trust and confidence
by a man who through his own shreYd-
ness and keenness of insight built up
one of the worlds mightiest fortunes is
so sublime that it borders dangerously
upon the ridiculous.

THE Republican primary for New
Castle county Saturday afternoon, held
on the principal of a common pri
mary" for the two factions marked an
important event for the party, as it
gave them one ticket to be voted for by
all who claim to be Republican in pol
itics. There were surprises and disap-
pointments, as there always are, but
no disposition manifested not to abide
by the voice of the party at the polls.
The EUery Evening notes the result
of the election of candidates as follows:
fTwo significant results were the
nomination of Samuel H. Baynard in
the Second district over Representa-
tive Bobert N. Burns, and the defeat
of State Senator James NJ. Shakes
peare in the Fourth district by Benja-
min A. Groves. Burns and Shakes
peare, were anti-Addicks Republicans
in the Legislature, and voted reso-
lutely against him from first to last
Baynard and Groves, on the other
hand, are credited with strong Addicks
proclivities. This is a gain of two
votes for Addicks, therefore, as both
districts are strongly Republican. On
the other hand, Representative George
Frizzell was defeated for denomination
in the Seventh District. by ex-Sheriff
William r. Finn. Representative
Frizzell voted for Addicks at the last
session of the Legislature. The net
result of the legislative contest, there
fore, is gain of one vote by Mr.. Ad-
dicks.

Gently had some uncomfortable ex-
perience with the elements. The sum-
mer was the hottest ever known, and
in some of the counties the fields were
parched by long drouths. Complaints
were general, and persons were heard
to exclaim that they hoped they would
never see another such summer. But
after all, this section of the United
States has little cause for complaint of
the elements. There may have been a
few more fevers resulting from water
contaminated by the force of the suns
rays, and here and there persons of
weak constitutions succumbed to the
heat, while a number of farmers had
their crops curtailed; but the vast ma
loity suffered only slight temporary
discomfort. There have been no
famines or hurricanes, no deluges.
1t has not been thus in some other
countries, or in parts of our own. In
India, for instance, the drought scared
an area almost as large as the United
States. Every trip of vegetation was
literally burned off the land. Then
women and children starved by mil
lions, and cattle and beasts all sorts
were exterminated.
In the midst of it the plague and the
cholera made their appearance to sweep
away the emaciated wrecks with famine
had left. And now, as if in mockery
their awful condition, the deluge has
come to aggregate the situation. How
these unfortunates have longed for the
