il it had not been for the aid of Mr..
Addicks. These are facts that you gen.
tlemen Of the Legislature cannot deny.
And while Mr.. Cause and Mr.. Geo.
r, Hoffecker may command you to stand
firm to the principle Of creating two
vacant seats rather than cast your votes
for the man that has made the Repub-
lican party what it is, / would like for
YOU to ask yourselves this question:
Who has done the most to bring about
Republican success in Delaware, Mr..
Cause, Mr. Hoffecker, or Mr.. Addicks?
Give an honest answer and l will be
perfectly willing to accept it. l would
also ask you, the Regular Republicans of
the Legislatures: Do you think you would
have been this day occupying your soft
seats in the State House If it had not
been for Union Republican votes in New
| Castle county? And do you not think
those men have rights that you ought to
respect as well as Mr.. Cause and Mr..
| Hoifecker?
| Gentlemen, these are serious questions.
You were elected to your seats as repre-
sentatiyes of all the people, not part of
| the people; and the voters of all the
State were of the opinion that you gentle
men would be men who could be trusted
to settle the difficulty of the past by
electing two Republican United States
Senators, one from each faction. Now,
gentlemen, after being elected with that
impression upon the minds of the voters,
are you going to prove false to that
trust that was reposed in you? Nine
tenths of the Republican voters of this
State, today, are demanding of you to
elect two Senators, and they prefer the
Hon. Anthony Higgins, tried and true
Republican, one that can take care OF
himself in the National halls of Con
gress; and John Edward Addicks, a self
made man, and man that has helped
to make you more than any one man has
ever done. These are grave questions
land we ask You to answer them honestly
and then cast your vote accordingly, and
we are willing to abide by the result.
Yours respectfully, G.. w.

ginning, and which, if it be possible ever
to meet them, would require long years
of effort and toll to do it. Men nova
days do not invite such prospects
in business. They are willing to work
but want to realize something for their
work, and in return for the benefits
which their ability and enterprise confers
on the general public. This, we take it,
is only just. The inducements which
progressive towns and cities offer to pro-
iectors of new enterprises, the principle
being long ago recognized as the right
one, is proof in point of the justice of
demanding and expecting liberal treat
ment from the people of city to pro
jectors of new industries, or of new
manufacturing enterprises.
| 1t is not, therefore, good news to hear
of the failure of any former business
man of the city to secure a site for Q
proposed new factory in this city. 1t is
not commendable in city whose recog
nized official trade organizations have
been for years seeking to induce pro
jectors of enterprises to locate here, tt
have some of their own people forced t.
go elsewhere for business locations
There is evidently somebody, possibl.
a good many somebodies hereabout tina
need to be awakened and made to realiz
something of the spirit of the twentieth
century.

How Eggs Are Condensed.

The eggs are broken and churned in
machine thousands at time. The
liquid is dropped slowly onto stone cyl
inders, over which currents Of warm
dry air are passed. This evaporates
the moisture. When thoroughly dry
the crystals are scraped off the cylin-
ders and are packed in air-tight pack
ages. They are used on board ship, and
to some extent by bakers. To prepare
them for use the crystals are simply
soaked in water of the same bulk as the
original eggs. You cannot have boiled
eggs from crystallized eggs, obviously
but you can have buildings and pies and
cakes, and that would be great thing
to man in the Klondike, for example
who happened to be several thousand
miles from hen.-Little Chronicle.

MEDIOCRE MODERN VERSE.
According to This Authority Their,
Has been n Decline in English
PoeticaI Expression.

The verse in our current magazines
sustains the statement SO generally
made that the age of poetry in the
sense of imaginative Interpretation
of life and nature is past. Some of it
consists Of cynical or semi-humorous
comments in rhyme on men and wom
en- and society and, though witty and
forcible, is, In effect, an acknowledg.
ment that the question which the great
poets of the past have at least stated
in novel form are to be avoided as per.
picking, If not insoluble, says the Hart
ford Courant. Much of it is description
Of natural objects, scenery, aspects OF
nature and the like, correct in form
but not suffused with feeling, which
alone prevents descriptive poetry from
being tame and prosaic. The whole
seems devoid of energy, as If written to
order and after model. There is moth.
ing that reader cares to memorize
or even cut out and paste in his scrap
book. The fatal lack of poetic energy
both Of thought and expression, is
everywhere apparent, evinced not only
by the fact that the quatrains OF son,
nets to which writers confne them.
selves, though neat, antithetical and
polished, are not striking. They lack
the power to make us think, in mos
cases they lack the power to hold oul
attention. They seem to be writer
from habit, not from the outburst Of {
slow-gathered impulse. They are usu
ally glanced at and skipped by read
ers. AS rule they are good evidenc,
in the affirmative OF the question
HAS the age of poetical expression il
the English language passed."
All the verse In our modern periodic
ais has, however, one quality; ii is cor
rect. On reading SO poems-or 'bit
Of verse"-in the magazines of TIL

misplaced accents are rare as strong
vigorous lines are. All is splendid,
regular, icily dull" The gayety an
the seriousness are alike "machin
made" and the lines in which they ar
embodied are sandpapered and val
nished to perfection. The poet doe
not hum a tune carelessly like Burn
or fervidly like Shelly; he plays hi
scales on piano in perfect tune. Ma

Georgia Honesty.

A peculiar bill for services recently
came before the Georgia legislature
for allowance. A criminal in impris-
onment had been pardoned by the
governor of the state. BY some con-
fusion in the official papers the par
don did not reach him for several
months after it was issued. Upon
this he petititoned the legislature to
be remunerated for the work he had
done for the state in the time that
ne had continued in confinement
through the mistake that had been
made. The legislature passed the act
awarding the man the money.
Whether it did this because of the
value of his labor to the state or con-
tributed it as n compensation for un-
necessarily depriying him of liberty
is not stated. 1t was liberal action
in either point of view.-Chicago
Chronicle.

SCHOOL AND CHURCH.

In 1890 there were in India only 70,
ordained Indian ministers of the Cos
pei, but last year there were 1,010.
A Christian Endeavor society al
Cape Nome, Alaska, has resulted il
the organization of Presbyterian
shurch by Rev. Lyman Scroggs. Rev
Sheldon Jackson, ID. d., assisted in the

It is said in Boston that one is al

The"Old First" Presbyterian church
of New York city, of which DIR. How
ard Duffield is pastor, is now open
daily for prayer and meditation, dis
tinction which 1t shares with few
churches outside of the Roman Catho.
lie and Anglican communions.
A social movement in New York city
deserving of notice is the proposition
of the Suburban Home company TIC
build new model tenensents for col
ored people to be rented at the same
price as to white people. Heretofore
colored families have been obliged tc
pay from three to five dollars month
more for inferior apartments. than

One of the most learned British
ecclesiastics is Rt. Rev. Brooke Foss
Westcott, d. D., bishop of Durham
His salary is $4,000, of which he gives
more than two-thirds to charity. The
bishop is great favorite with the
| prince of Wales, who once said OF
him: 81 only allow three persons to
lecture me-my mother, my wife and
the bishop of Durham"
A suggestion in regard to school
hygiene has been made by the dis.
trict government of Cologne. 1t is to
the effect that the country school
boards provide an appropriate number
of felt and wooden shoes to be placed
at the disposal of the children. BY
this system those who come from Q
distance with wet footgear will have
an opportunity to exchange 1t for dry
| shoes.

Potash Soap for Eye Glasses.

Constant wearers of eyeglasses,
spectacles, ETC., are much annoyed by
the dimming of the glasses upon en-
tering warm room from a cooler
place. 1t will greatly interest them
to know that this evil can be obvi-
ated by rubbing the glasses with soft
soap. All that is necessary is to rub
every morning or before going out a
little so-called green soap (washing
SOAP potash soap) over the whole sur
face of the glass, polishing it until 1t
is bright again. The preparations
"Gasolin" and "Oculustra," offered for
the same purpose at high prices, are
nothing else than pure potash soap

1t is as easy for us to recognize our
friends by their handwriting as by
their faces. Everybody imparts to his
handwriting q certain individuality,
certain mannerism, which serves
to identify the writer. His style Of
penmanship is as much part of his
personality as is his tone OF voice or
his manner of walking. 1t is very
clearly evident that there is direct
relationship between the writing and
the writer; and study of this in
teresting subject reveals the fact that
every popularity of a handwriting has
particularly significance and indi-
Gates a corresponding trait or pc
culiarity in the writer. In other
words, a persons character is revealed
in his neutrality-suspicious. Howard

Planting mt the white House.

The work Of peopling the half hun
bred flower beds with their richly
arrayed inhabitants is Of itself gigan-
tic task. All of the plants come from
the great white house Conservatives,
and at planting time dozen men are
busy for month or more setting them
out. There are placed in the ground
each year more than 5000 tulips, en-
bracing not less than half hundred
separate species; $500 pansy plants,
2,ooO field daisies, from 5000 to 5000
geraniums and other flowers in proper
ton. As an example of the intricate
planting introduced 1t may be stated
that there are on the grounds two
fancy flower beds, neither of them very
large, in each of which there are more
than 5000 small plants.-Waldon Faw-
cett, in Woman's Home Companion.

LlBERALITY VS.. GREED.

There can be no doubt about the right
Of individuals TO put price upon prop
crty which they own, but we suggest
that increasing the price of property to
point in excess of its value, and very
much above the price at which it has
been held when customer appears who
really means to buy, is not good business
practice. Particularly is this not good
business practice when it involves the
loss Of a manufacturing industry that
would give employment to large num-
her OF people, bring business and money
To the city and promote general interest
by legitimate and general increase in
property values. We are led to make
these suggestions by the rumors that

eXorbitant prices for properties when il
became known that the projectors Of
these enterprises We're known to be re-
garding the properties favorably, and
would probably offer to buy them for

A New Cause for the Old Reason

If you to me be cold
Or be false to you,
The world will go OH think,
just as it used to do.
The clouds will flirt with the moon,
The sun will kiss the sea,
The winds to the trees will whisper
And laugh at you and me;
But the sun will not shine so bright
The clouds will not seem so white
TO one as they will to two;
So l think you had better be kind
And | mad better be true,
And let the old love go on
Just as it used to to.
IL the whole of a page be read,
If book be finished through,
The world may read on, / think,
Just as it used to do;
For ether lovers will con
The pages we have passed,
And the gold of the gaudy binding
May glitter unto the last.
But the lids have a lonely look
And one may not read the book
1T opens only to two;
So | think you had better be kind
And l had better be true,
And let the reading go on
Just as it used to do.
If we have sailed together
Fade out Of each others view,
The world will sail on, / think,
Just as it used to do.
And we may reckon by stars
That flash from different skies
That another of loves pirates
Has captured my lost prize.
But ships long time together
Can better the tempest weather
Than any other two;
So think you had better be kind
And / had better be true,
That we together may sail
Just as we used to do.

0 Love to be the little flake
That drifts from out the sky
And melts upon your crimson lip
Ills thrice more blessed than /
o wherefore have heart or soul
Such as abide in me
When, being but flake, l might
Have such destiny?
SHE.
All, would you We're little flake
TO drift from out the sky
And melt upon my lip or on
The lid above my eye!
How sweet 'twould be to me, and wha
a wonderful relief
If l might wipe you from the scene
With Just my handkerchief.
