The students of Mt. de Chantal Acad-
envy last night assembled in recital hail.
to listen to the second lecture on art
topics by Miss A. seaton Schmidt, of
washington, whose topic was Italy
and Italian Art" This lecture gave a
most interesting conception Of the great
love and devotion of the italian people
to art. not the cultured few, but the
masses MS well. and ended with the hope
that In our own country this love OF
art might be developed among the
people, who may then produce the
greatest art period the world has ever
known, an art that shall be of the peo-
pie, by the people, and for the people.
Miss Schmidt has the rare capacity OF
carrying her hearers with her into the
very atmosphere of sunny Italy and of
placing them in sympathy with the re-
iIglous feeling through which Italian
art was developed. The next and con-
Guiding lecture of the series will be
given Friday evening.

Honor to Whom Honor is Due.

Editor Delawarean.
My Dear Sir: A great deal is being
said in the newspapers just now about
Mr.. Willard Saulsbury's probable can
didacy for the United States Senate,
and his more than probable choice as
leader of the Democratic party of Della
ware. Will you kindly allow me, a
Wilmington Democrat, TO give express
sion to the honest sentiment of many
hard working Democrats in Whining
ton regarding this matter
Mr.. Willard Salisbury is regarded
here as natural born leader. He
is known as an able manager, and also
a bitter, uncompromising foe of the
Republican party. He has on several
occasions devised the plans which led
us to victory here. When he goes into
a fight he is there to stay and to win.
1t was through his efforts that bribery
was in a great measure checked at the
elections here in several campaigns.
1t was his plan that placarded the city
and county with notices that heavy
rewards would be paid for all evidence
or any evidence relating to attempts
at bribery or illegal voting. And also
with printed warnings to illegal voters
whether bribed or otherwise, that they
would be prosecuted to the full extent
of the law. This had a telling effect
on the Republican machine plans and
we won because much of the dishonesty
planned was prevented.
These are some of the many reasons
why we recognize the ability of Will
lard Salisbury and desire ito see him
honored by his party. We know that
for years he has given his time and his
means to the party's success without
stint. And now that his friends de-
sire him to accept a position of honor,
which we feel he will truly honor, you
will find that the solid sentiment OF
the party workers who for years have
borne the heaviest of the fight will be
with him.
Let honor be accorded where honor
is due is our desire up here.

The June Century will have some
political bearings, including an essay
ON Reformers by Governor Roosevelt;
Hamilton's estimate of Burr, as shown
in unpublished documents, and accom-
panied by new portraits of the two
antagonists; "The Business Man and
the Consular Service" by Harry A..
Garfield, and THE "Origin of THE Lin
coin Rail' as told to J. McCan Davis
by Governor Oglesby. Three short
stories deal variously with phases of
political life: 'FThe Mouse" by new
writer, the scene being In Washington
official life; ''Conlon," novel char
acter-sketch of a heeler's devotion to
his boss, and 1.-THE Stained-Glass Poll

DON'T GET WEARY.

The efforts of our friend "Algy's"
mouthpiece do not seem to be sustain
ed with the untiring and resistless
energy one would naturally expect
from such backing. A feeble whine on
Monday seems to mark the untimely
end of a contest it invited. The quail
fications demanded of their leaders by
the Republican factions ought to
guarantee that substitutes would be
procured as the firing line gets thin
either from destruction or desertion.
Great causes are not won by spas
modic but sustained effort, and if j..
Algernon is to win a Senatorship
against H. Edward-no that is a mis-
take, H. Algy and ]. Eddie it should
have been--he must have reliable re-
cruits and some reserve force, so that
the whole gang will mot run away
demoralized at the first skirmish.
We shall be tempted before long to
take Algy's part if this thing goes ON
and argue the other side. It's a
blooming, blossoming, bewildering
shame when Algy buys a paper that he
can't get more good out of it. In the
great cause in which his paper is en-
gagged, procuring majority of the
voters of this State to view what he
thinks are his Senatorial qualifications
through a magnifying glass and blind
ing their eyes to his disqualifications
or the strength of Atlas, the industry
of the ant and the persistence of the
woodpecker 1--WE came near using a
homlier example) would not come
amiss, and instead of this we find a
"quitter." Brace 'em up Algy! Brace
'em up! The noble result you wish
cannot otherwise be achieved.

Mr.. Reedy for Sheriff.

There is considerable discussion
among the Republicans of Dover in re-
gard to the candidates for the county
offices which are now filled by their
men. If the rotation plan is followed,
as is probable, the lower part of the
county will nominate the sheriff, the
most important office in the county,
and in that case Frank Reedy of Mil
ford, who claimed to have been cleo
ted by 400 majority four years ago, will
be the nominee. H. Dexter Learned,
who owns fine farm near Dover, will
be East Dover's representa-
tive in the General Assembly. There
is some trouble among the oystermen
Of Little Creek hundred, whose turn it
is to name a representative, as the
tongers prefer one man, while the
dredgers want another. This may
mean decided cut for one or the other
at the polls in this, the Second Repre-
district.

A. Fair Proposal.

Va reporter of the Delawarean CLEANED
the following in an interview with the
general agent of Stetsons Double
Uncle Toms Cabin Co., which will ap-
pear at Dover ON North Street baseball
grounds on Saturday evening, May 26.
This company is the largest and best
Uncle Tom Co. travelling, comprising
so first class artists. So complete is
their scenery that the piece could be
put ON in a barn for better scenic eff
fects than is produced by any other
company. They have a grand double
band and orchestra of ten pieces and
one that is hard to beat. The African
mandolin students are the first and
only colored people appearing in pub
lie and performing ON the Spanish
mandolin. The Lone Star Quartette is
claimed to be without an equal, and the
Topsies, There they have something
that charms all; two Marks, the best
that big salary can secure. If we do
not give the best performance of this
piece ever seen in this city we will
cheerfully refund the price of admis-
sion. Will any other Uncle Tom Co.
do this? No, because they have not
got the show to do so. Stetson's Co.
have. The only Co. that has a Female
Creole Quartette, also Female Drum
Corps and southern cake walkers, buck
and wing dancers. Look out for the
big parade at noon.

AN ANCIENT RELIEF.

The ancients believed that rheuma-
tism was the work of a demon Within
a man. Amy one who has had an at
tack Of sciatic orinfammatory rheuma-
tism will agree that the infiction is
demoniac enough to warrant the belief
1t has never been claimed that Cham
berlain's Pain Balm would cast out
demons, but it will cure rheumatism,
and hundreds bear testimony ito the
truth of this statement. One applica-
tion relieves the pain, and this quick
relief which it affords is alone worth
many times its cost. For sale by How

Good and Bad Trusts.

Republicans are not going to de-
stroy all trusts-just the hurtful ones.
you divide trusts in to good
trusts and bad trusts. and let
the Republican party draw the line, you
will find that every trust that contrib
utes literally in a campaign is a good
one, and that the bad ones are the
stingy ones that refuse to come down.
There is no good monopoly in private
hands; there never was and never will
be until God sends angels to take
charge of the monopolies"

The idea Of nominating candidates
direct at the primaries is taking root
among the Democratic voters of Kent.
The principle has the flavor of true
Democracy and should be adopted. 1t
brings the voter closer to the NOMINEES
than he was under the old plan and
removes all possibility of convention
juggling. The voters can be trusted,
especially the Democratic voters.

A friend calls our attention to the
popularity of the name "Algernon," in
connection with our statement last
week that he was very different per-
son from the late departed (from the
War Department. Alger, of "embalmed
beef" fame. He says the name itself
indicates what we said. Alger-non,
otherwise not Alger, or if you please
Alger-"nit" or "Algy-nit" which, by
the way, our friend says is what the

Algy when he tried to force way in

"Senseless stuff in original inspira-
tion it appears even more senseless in
type" Extract from Evening Journal
editorial of Monday.
The editorial brief in which the
above sentence appeared was assuredly
a striking instance of it's truth. The
Evening Journal has a wonderful fac
ulty of getting its editorial pedal ex-
tremities twisted up in it's editorial
vocalizer every time the latter orifice
is expanded. The article itself lis a
species of bluff for which the editorial
writer of the journal is noted, and
very poorly played at that
