Chances Better than in 's4.

In the Cleveland Blaine campaign,
in 1884, there seemed far less pros
pedt for the election of the Democratic
ticket in the early part of the cam
paign than There is ait the present time
for Bryan. In point of fact Cleveland
was beaten absolutely until Rev. Mr..
Burchlard came along and saved him,
1t is far too early in the game to make
any predictions at this time. A Burch-
ard may appear, and there are many
who believe that Hon. Theodore
Roosevelt will be the Burchard of
1900. His speech alt St. Paul lis a
fairly good starter.
These are only a few clippings of the
many THAT appear in the Baltimore
Sun daily. And still there are Repub-
licans who have nerve enough to say
that the Sun is opposed TO Bryan.

On Which Side are You Z

The Republican party stripped OF
surplusage, means:
Imperialism-not constitutionalis lism.
Constant wars abroad.
The mastery of combined wealth.
The degradation of the citizen.
The Democratic platform means:
The supremacy i'm the Constitution.
Peace to the citizen.
Individual opportunity lin the life
race.
Every citizen king of his own
house.
On which side? On 1.-THE one will

FARMERS, LOOK OUT
FOR THESE SWlNDLERS
Their Swift Butter Makers are
Rank Frauds.


Rank Frauds.
A number of farmers in Maryland
have been victimized by a parity OF
men representing themselves to be of
the "Ballbearing Churn Company,
selling churn making butter in
side of two minutes. The men gave
demonstrations and sold their churns
ait 81 each and also disposed of terri-
torial rights at a price as high as 5000
The farmers tried ito make butter with
the churns and found that they could
not do so under an hours time. They
have come Ito the conclusion that the
men who victimized them used chemi-
calls to make the butter gather. They
now find the papers given the men
have been negotiated. The sharpers
cleared up about $4,000. The farmers
in this vicinity should be on their
guard.

THIS MORNING.
Closing Events of the Plea SAINT
Encampment of 1900.
REV.. P. OTIS ACTED AS MANAGER
Vigorous Wilmington Minister Took
Charge When Pastor-in-Charge
Layfield Gave Ont and s-s
Became Ill.

Breaking camp" is not half so un-
pleasant as it would seem after fort
nights delightful outing, because
everybody is in the moving spirit and
THE teamsters have am extra hustle
about them as they move up and down
the furniture-lined avenues. Such was
the scene ait Camden camp this morn
ing long before the hour of 8 o'clock
told of the time for assembling for a
final prayer service. All day long
wagons loaded with furniture have
been vending their way along the
country roads.
SERVICES DISTURBED BY STORM
PasJor-in- Charge Layfield was
preaching a deeply spiritual sermon
last might concerning Saul's appeal in
desperation ITO Samuel, when fierce
thunder storm came up and at once
the congregation, which was largely
composed of women, seemed in a
ferment.

concerns you more deeply than a wet
TENT" shouted the preacher, but his
words fell upon deaf tears and The
meeting had to be concluded in song.
Rev. John p Otis of Wilmington,
the little man with the big voice and
mental grasp, had charge lof the Big
Sunday" exercises last Sunday, and by
his good management order was pre-
served in a crowd which everybody
predicted would be unmanageable.
Mr.. Otis presided in Pastor Lay6eld S
absence through illness, and he inter-
mingled deep spiritual feeling with his
work of the day until frequently
/ shouts were heard issuing from the
tabernacle. In making the morning
prayer, Rev. A. C. Wiley, late OF Gem
trail New York Conference, implored
Divine mercy on those in China who
are now surrounded by perilous con-
ditions and stand face to face with
death while in the full vigor of life.
The congregation heartily Joined in
the prayers for Divine comfort
Rev. L. Z. Barrett, D. D., of Milford,
was the morning preacher, and an
other effort was made to start the re-
vival fires, but the people continued
ito TREAT the matter of their souls sal
vation indifferently. Rev. j. c. Pierce
preached in the afternoon and Mr..
Wiley at might.
Fully three Thousand persons
swarmed about the tabernacle early
in the evening to hear the song service
under the direction of Rev. Edwin
Gardner, who led a selected choir OF
twenty voices from the Kent county
churches. The service passed of with
much credit Ito the singers and direc-
tor, holding the vast Sunday nigh;
audience in rapt attention for an hour
and half An unfortunate incident
of the day, however, was when the
choir had sung its last special number
the audience arose and proceeded ITO
scatter regardless of the fact that
preaching was to begin at once and
the preacher had already arisen.
"Friends! Friends. Friends" shout
ed Mr.. Otis, rushing to the front. The
main business of this evening is the
preaching of the gospel" and the
choir was brought back and set tc
work again until quiet was restored.
