until now We have had no chance to show

the applause shOwered on the New Yorks
and the lack of enthusiasm with which the
Brooklyns were greeted. 1t their first
game at home in nearly three weeks and
they had returned with a lead Of nearly
100 points, yet a stranger within the gates
would have thought, from the applause,
that the New Yorks were the champions
and the Brooklyns the tailenders. It
seemed as IL a Majority OF the crowd was
from New York and every member of the
team received hand. 1t showed conciu-
sively that the New York cranks are still
loyal and that base ball Is not dead across
the river. It also indicated that If the

In the factory inspector those women
and children OF Wilmington who are
forced by circumstances to so out and
labor in the mills and factories have
good friend, and the employers of
such labor find in her an official who
has a due regard for their interests
and rights. and who does not try to
harass them in the operation of their
plants by the imposition OF onerous
conditions. When she was first ap-
pointed and began her work there was
a disposition on the part Of some en-
ployers- to resent her visits to their es-
tablishments, but that feeling has been
dispelled and she is now a welcome
visitor. Her annual report, submitted
to Chief Justice Lore on Wednesday,
shows that there are 3,072 women and
girls employed in the city, OF about 4
per cent OF the entire population.
which speaks well for the sustaining
power of the men wage-earners, for
in many other cities the proportion OF
women and children who are forced to
labor is much larger.

oReANlzE foR eoon ROADS

This session Of the Legislature is
expected to result in some action graf
flying to advocates Of good roads. All
political parties are pledged to enact
legislation looking to a radical inn
provement in our present spend-and-
mend system which brings with it no
good and lasting results. Now is the
time for all men who have practical
ideas ON the subject to advance them,
to the end that out of the mass Of sug-
gestions made a good bill may be
drawn.
Some idea of the great and wide
spread interest now being taken in the
good roads movement may be formed
by reference to the proceedings Of the
Interstate Good Roads Association
which convened in Chicago on Mon
day. Delegates TO the number of $50
were present from more than thirty
states to assist in the work of effecting
"a national organization, and to bring
influence to bear upon Congress to OBJ
tain an appropriation for the improve
ment Of highways commensurate with
the needs Of the country. Committees
were appointed to work with thirty
eight State Legislatures and also to
carry the matter direct to Congress.
1t would not be amiss for the good
roads advocates in Delaware to form
a State association now, and obtain
membership in the national organiza-
ton, for 1t would enable them to con
centrate their efforts along intelligent
lines and to obtain the benefits Of the
working experience Of their fellows in
other States through the medium OF
the central body.

Wilmington has a vital interest in
the maritime greatness of the country,
and should be represented in the ma
tional maritime congress, called by
Governor Gambler. OF Georgia. 1t will
be held in Brunswick. ON January 30,
1901. In his call Governor. Gambler
says:
Impressed with the Importance OF
creating an interest in the maritime
business OF the United States and a
sentiment that may tend TO restore its
former prestige as a great carrying
power, have deemed it proper to is
sue a call for a national maritime con-
gress, TO assemble at Brunswick, Ga,
on the S0th day OF January, 1901.
In the interest, therefore, of pa
triotism and the commercial welfare OF
the citizens of the United States. ]
trust the object Of this call will receive
that consideration from those who fee
an interest in the promotion of the
maritime greatness of our country e
which its importance entities it.
While the congress could have boed
called and held under the auspices o
a man much more prominently AM
closely identified with the shipping o
our country. and in a place neare
great shipping centres, there is nj
telling what good may result from tn

position to derive its full share q
benefit in case it should prove a sue
