POSTMASTER AT CARRCRoFT.
Person Recommended by Congressman
II. Hall f;ets tLe place

Person Recommended by Congressman l..
III. hall Gets the Place.
When Wilmington people read the an
nouncement to-day that II. M. Phillips
had been appointed to the fourth class
postmastership at Carfcroft they won
dered whether Phillips was Regular
Republican or Union Republican.
This question was of unusual interest,
because CarIcroft is the station on the
baltimore K Ohio railroad that is most
convenient to the country residence of
j. Edward Addicks, as Claymont il the
most convenient station to him on the
Philadelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore
railroad.
Political leaders IN Wilmington were
asked about Phillips, but could give
little information. One man from
Brandy hundred, when asked
whether Phillips were Union or q
Regular, said he thought he was hardly
of age. which left the question unan-
sweTed.
But the truth has finally come out
Phillips Is no man at all, but n woman.
She was appointed on the recommended
tion of Congi essman l.. Heisler Ball,
which fact gives an inkliug that she is
not an Addioks supporter. DIR. Ball
said today that her place was the most
convenient for the postoifice,
The lesson to be drawn from the ap-
pointment is thar Congressman Bail
continues to control the postmastership
patronage.

Albers, 10 years old, shot and killed
Emanuel Koehlsr, aged - years. yes

The boys were playmstes. According
to statements OF neigbbors, they had
quarreed several days ago. Aibers is
the son Of lbert Albers, q house
painter, and Koehler is the sou OF the
Rev. John L. Koehler.
The shooting took place at 6 p. m.
Young Koehler was standing on fence
In the rear OF Albers' house. He was
with his s.years-old brother, Theodore
Koehler, the only person who saw the
shooting. The little fellow told his
father that the two boys quarreled aud
that Albers raised rife and shot
Emanuel Koehler. Albeis, when he
saw koehler fall from the fence, said:
Tim sorry l did it."
The rifle used was % Flobert of
short caliber. The ball struck koehler
in the breast and PASSED through his
heart. He died almost instantly.
When Albers saw what he had dene
he ran into the house and tod his
mother. The neighborhood was quickly
alai med with the news, and in the ex-
citement Albers disappeared. 1t was
not until the arrival of the police that
a search was made for him. lie was
found in the cellar of his home, sus-
pended by the neck from the end of a
rope tied to beam Of the floor above.

Description of Combat Between Cloud

Description of q Combat Between CLOUD

An actual combat between clouds
and cannon is an interesting spectacle,
Gays Eugene P. Lyle In Eyerybody's
Magazine. 1t is more than likely TO be
stirring. Here is one that proved SO,
though, after all, it gas but lively
skirmish. Throughout the morning
the sun had burned down on the beauti-
full vineyards of Denice But towards
noon heavy dark clouds began to climb
up sluggishly out OF the southwest.
These were the first scouts OF the
enemy. But they were not unexpected.
for a bulletin of warning had gone cut
long before from the meteorological
bereau. 1t needed only the hosting
of yellow flag from ths central station,
and within Jew minutes thereafter all
the guns were manned. BY now the
forerunners of the storm had rolled on
and up towards the zenith, and close
behind them crowded the solid black
phalanx OF the main army itself. This
was the precise second for the attack
to begin. Net
The director of artillery in the central
station gave the signal by firing the
first gun. There was the sudden puff
of ohallxy smoke and the whistling of
the whirlwind-ring as it tore into the
clouds. A second gun answered, not
500 yards away, and new whistling
reinforced the dying away of the first.
In the same instant the cotton like
patches of smoke burst cut here and
there over the vineyards, and with
each came the dull boom aud the angry
note of the projectile. On the part
of the earth the engagement had become
general.
AS yet the clouds had made no
answer, but they were lowering and

Dead Birds OH WOmen's
Hats.

Women who decorate their
hats with dead birds must be
either very vain or very heart
less, or both. 1t would give me
genuine pleasure to know that
they were obliged to pay a fine
of not less than $500 for every
appearance wearing a bird or a
part of one, even if it were an
limitation. 1t can not be pos
sible that they love the beauti-
full little creatures when they
are alive and singing, since they
are willing that they should be
killed off at wholesale in order
that the so-called "gentler sex"
may be decked out with their
lifeless plnmage.
A dead bird is always a pitt
full sight, as it lies with its lit
little eyes closed; aud it would
seem that this sight, once seen,
would recur to the shopper
when shown the barbarous head
coverings. which are, alas, still
in vogue. That some women
should wear such things is not
surprising; but that, after so
much said and written on this
subject, many should still now
and then see face of apparent
gentleness and refinement under
a mass of skins and feathers of
slaughtered birds, is a matter Of
shame and wonderment.-New
York Evening'Post.

GOOD ADVICE

The most miserable beings I'm the
world are those suffering from dys-
pepsia and liver complaint. More
than sepenty-fivc per cent. OF the pco-
pie in the United States are afflicted
with these two diseases and their
effects: such as sour stomach, sick
headache, habitual costiveness, pal
pitation of the heart, heartburn,
waterbrash, gnawing and burning
pains at the pit OF the stomach, vel
low skin, coated tongue and disa-
greeable taste in the mouth, coming
up OF food after eating, low spirits,
etc. Go to your druggist, j. y. Had
ley, and get a bottle Of August
Flower for 7jr. Two doses will re-
lieve you. Try 1t.
