An orchestra on His Sea "trip.

chicago Tribune. afr-z
Robert Elliott, capitalist and club
man, feels the need of a sea ;oyage.
The noise Of the marine engine is dis.
quieting to his nerves, so he prefers to
go in a sailing vessel, he engaged
quarters on the Shenandoah, one Of the
speediest clipper ships afloat, which is
to sail for Australia next week.
Elliott Is derotee of Wagner. He
cannot live beyond earshot of the great
composers melodies. The cabin doors
are too small to admit a piano, SO it
was lowered through the skylight.
Three wind instrument artists, who
could also double on strings, were en-
gagged and set to practicing Wagner
music. By the time tho Shenandoah
is ready to sail the orchestra will have
quite repertoire.
MY physician recommended q long
sea voyage" said Elliott, land / feel
Just sick enough to obey, HIM. My wife
will accompany me, and, as we are
both fond of music, the idea of taking
an orchestra with us suggested itself.
Our voyage is expected to occupy five
months, including our, stay in Sydney,
New South Wales. IT is possible that
we may never go ashore during the

City Railway Secures Temporary Order
Against 1t Pending Determination of
Injunction Proceedings.
Chancellor Nicholson in Dover, yes
terdny week, granted rule on tho
Peoples Railway Co. to show cause
why 1t should not be restrained from
laying tracks upon various streets in
this city. The application for the rule
was made by the Wilmington City
Railway Co., through its attorney,
Willard Salisbury. The rule was made
returnable Thursday, May 9th, at
Dover.
Until the determination of the case,
the Peoples Co. cannot proceed with
the construction Of its line.
The bill Of complaint fled by the
city railway is similar In many respects
to that filed in tho case OF that COM
pany against Brandywine Springs Co..
The claim is made that the Whining
ton City hallway 20. has the exclusive
right to the use ofthe streets for street
railway purposes, that the old company
would no damaged and Inconvenience
by the lines Of the new company and
that the new company has no legal
right to build its lines.
This case will probably reach the
Supreme Court of the United States
before the final determination OF the
questions involved.

FIRST HEAT VICTIM.
David Lawson Dies After Being Frustrated

David Lawson Dies After Being Frustrated
on Tuesday Week While at Work.
David Lawson, colored, aged 40 years,
contractor for stevedoring, who is we'll
known in the community by both white
and coloied people, died about 10
O'Clock Thursday at his residence,
No. 2l9 Tatnall street, from the effects
OF being Frustrated by the heat while at
work assisting to unload lumber from
vessel at the wharres Of the jackson
& Sharp Co. on Tuesday week.
Tuesday week the weather was exceed
ingly wnrm and Lawson, who was in
charge of force of stevedores, exerted
himself considerably, and as result
was overcome during the afternoon.
He continued at work, however. and
drank some ice water. In the evening
he started home, but was again over
come when he reached Fourth and
Market streets. Policeman Chilling,
noticing his condition, revived him
and assisted him to get home. That
night he was attacked with cramps and
suffered much pain until relieved by
death. DR.. Taylor was 10 attendance,
but the case was SO serious that his
efforts were unuvailing.
Lawson, who was native OF Phila-
delphia, came to this city 10 years ago
and for tho past II years had been in
charge of the steyedores at the Della
ware pulp works.

The report Of Philip @. Churchman
and Charles G. Kurtz Of their nudit OF
the county financial accounts for the
year ended January I'd, 1900, was pre-
scented to Resident Associate Judge
William G. Spruance Mt his residence
Thursday morning. On account of the
apparent desire of the Levy Court to
do things quietly and with as little
publicity as possible, the annual audit
Of the figures for which the court Is
responsible as the financial body of the
county, has come to be of great i'm
portance. The deep interest taken in
the audit made by john s. Rossell and
John II. Danny for the year ended
January Cd, 1883, is likely to be re-.
pealed with regard TO the present
report, which is eventually to be printed
in pamphlet form.
Here are some things shown in the
report for the past year:
The bonded Indebtedness was S646, 600.
Not all disbursements bore the formal
approval of the president of the court
and county comptroller, some being
: made simply on authority of the
minutes Of the court, and the minutes
are not signed.
