Exceptional interest centres in the an
nouncement of the bill at Dockstader's q
this week, for aside from the high priced
talent on the program it marks the ap-
pearance OF three of the handsomest and
most accomplished women in vaudeville,
namely, Miss Norma Wills, Miss Emily
Jordan and Mics Violette. Manager
d, ckstader considers himself extremely
fortunate in securing these three women
on the same program. In addition to
their beauty of face and figure they are
decidedly talented, and are sure to please
the patrons of ''the little theatre around
the corner" Taken altogether the bill
is rich in comedy; and 1t is comedy of
the very best kind. Kelley and Violette
have always been local favorites; Nick
Hughes, the minstrel; George H. Carr
and Emily Jordan, Kelley and St. Clair
and the others are all clever people.

sence OF several weeks, with many new

Shanghai, April S.-The British, Amer.

sent joint note to the tsung-li-yamen
demanding the suppression Of the Box
ers, the secret society opposed to for
eigners, within two months. The note
states that unless this is done the gov

will land troops and march them to
Shangtung and Pe-chi-li provinces in
order to protect foreign residents.
The tsung-li-yamcn has granted CON

would be given to n British syndicate.

Washington, April S.-State depart

the reports from Shanghai that the
American, British. German and French
ministers at Peking have united in a
note to the Chinese government serving
notice that the powerful antiforeign So
ciety known as the Boxers must be SUD-
pressed within two months and that a
refusal to comply with this demand will
be foil,wed by the landing of military
forces of the four powers in the Shans-
tuns peninsula and the northern PROV
inces Of China.

Mr.. Conger has general instructions to
avoid being party to collective diplo-

that he joined in note of threaten

large force of troops TO suppress the Box

anything from Minister Conger or Gener-
al Otis suggesting such course. The

Street Car Men handing Together.

Chicago, April S.-A movement has
been started for the banding together in
a union Of all the street car employees of
Chicago. A circular outlining a sweeping
plan of organization was distributed to
the homes of motormen, gripmen and
conductors all over the city. The circu-
lar, which was issued by the Street
Railway Employees association of Chi
csso, calls upon the employees Of the va
rious street car lines to join in a move
ment to reorganize the unions disrupted
after the great strike Of 1894. 1t is said
that William McMahon, chief Of the
Amalsamated Association of Street Cur
Employees Of America, is expected to ar
rive here from Detroit within a day or
two, when 1t Is believed that active work
Ia the formation Of unien will begin.
Traction officials say they are prepsred
to oppose any such move.

Actions speak louder than words
Proverb.
Union Republicans act for party unity.
Anti-Addicksites talk about party
unity.
The distinguishing characteristics Of
the two sides of the local Republican
contention are, and always have been,
as here stated. From the beginning Of
she party division in 1896 until now,
every practical suggestion for party unity
has originated with the Union Republi-
cans, and every action made for the pro-
motion of Republican unity and success
has been made by the Union Republi-
cans. These are statements of facts OF
she utmost importance to the sincere
get together" R publicsns of this
State, and we suggest that these sincere
advocates OF party unity belong, natur-
ally and reasonably, in the Union Re-
publican party. To doubt this-to deny
it's an impeachment of their sincerity.
To profess desire for unity ss basis
of euccess, to talk about 1t and urge its
necessity and continue to reject prac-
ticable, reasonable and honorable propo-
sitions for bringing it about, is to make
sc.ion deny the truth of profession. The
Union Republicans are the only consist
ent advocates of Republican party unity
in .his State. They desire it. They
make propositions for it. They work
and strive for it in every honorable way.
They have accepted every practical prcp.
esition made III them looking to this
end, have kept their engagements in
every case, and have proved not only
their sincerity as Republicans working
for party success, but have ais, proved

crat.
Which OF these Democrats is telling
ahe truth? We are betting on the
Bridgeville chap. What he says accords
with our own information from that
locality, and from other parts of "the
lower counties"
Perhaps, rather than contradict fpl
low Democrat, our Seaford contemporary
will admit that Bridgevile and Nanti
coke hundred generally is an exception
TO what he says about "the lower coun.
ties" And again, perhaps, he Will ad
NIT that Milford hundred another ex.
ception OF the same quality.
Then we suggest that there are othel
exceptions, and that shortly desponlency
will have settled over the ranks of the
Regular (?) Republicans in other local..
ties. In fact it is settling now ana hav
ing got through with his investigations
in the lower counties, We suggest that
the News extend 5 inquiries into the
upper county as We are rather inclined
TO think the despondency business Will
be much thicker here than in ''the lower
counties" The AntiAddicksites here
have been depending upon Democratic
sympathy and Democratic information
for some time and have been feeling
pretty good over it. A change has come
oyer the spirit Of TIL ir dreams. They
don't trust Democrats about that little
shing any more. They know better.
Hence the probability OF very sudden
and very dense settling of dependency
upon their ranks.
This is a news tip. The News and the
Democrat ought to assign a reporter to
work this matter up. Our word for it,
