Ticket TO Cock Flght

During the present week a cock
fight was held in Pennsylvania near
the dividing line from Delaware, to
which many Wilmingtonians were "in-
vited." Among them was a prominent
salocnkeeper, into whose ears was
poured the story that he must disguise
himself if he attended in order that he
should not be known in case of trouble.
Procuring a pair Of false whiskers,
which he adjusted, he proceeded to the
P, w. & b. railroad station, Front and
French street, i'm order to take a train
to the scene OF battle. Beside the
whiskers, Mr.. - also procured sew
eral drinks of "old rye" to keep his
courage up. Upon reaching the sta
ton he went to the ticket office to pur-
chase a ticket, in the meantime having
forgotten his destination.
'"Give me a ticket for the cock
fight" said he.
Cock fight replied the agent.
There's no such station on this road.

functions as speaker Of the Senate and
to preside at and vote in the joint ses-

which resulted in a vacancy which two
years later was filled by the Democrats
who elected Richard r. Kenney to that

Mr. Bancroft's Query

There is probably no more public
spirited man in Wilmington than viii
liam r. Bancroft. He is always ready
to contribute generously and literally
to any enterprise that will benefit the
city But Mr. Bancroft is not as ia
miliar with the "ould country" as he
is with the native soil, and a good joke
is now being told upon him by near
relatives, which occurred during his
last visit to the continent.
While passing through Ireland upon
a fast express Mr.. Bancroft happened
to glance out of the car window with
fine growth Of some unknown (to
him) vegetation in full bloom. Turn
ing to one of his companions he said:
What is that growing out there?''

Mr.. Bancroft resumed the reading of
his paper and asked no more ques-

There is n disposition on the part Of
the newspaper correspondents in South
Africa to magnify the importance Of
tho Boer operations 1t seems to be
the opinion Of the military authorities
that Lord Roberts broke the back OF
the Boer resistance before he left the
Transvaal, and that it only remains
for Lord Kitchener to complete the
work by policing and pacifying the
country This task will be long and
arduous one, but there seems to be NO
doubt Of its ultimate accomplishment
no matter how active the Boer raiders
may be for the time being. There is a
vast difference between organized and
unorganized resistance
