NERVE TONIC.
DEMOCRATS
INSTITUTE.

An ordinance providing for the election
by City Council Of an assistant city So
licitOr was introduced at the meeting of
City Council last night by Mr.. Kane.
1t was read twice and referred to the
law committee.
1t provides that an assistant city So
licitor shall be elected at the last meet
ing in June, 1901, and every two years
thereafter and states that his duties shall
be as set forth in chapter SIS, vol. XN,
Laws of Delaware.
This means that City Council will
elect an assistant city solicitor at the
last stated meeting in June. MANY can
didates for the position have arisen for
the position.
Among the names of likely persons
heard mentioned last night were Samuel
s. Adams, .Jr.. Chas. r. Curley, Baldwin
Springer, Josiah Marvel. John G. Gray,
Howell S. England. Robert Pennington,
ARENAS and Martin Il. Smith.
The assistant city solicitor receives a
salary of $500 per year.
The Democratic members of CITY
Council claim that the law which pro-
vides for the salary of the city solicitor
and the creation of the position of as
sistant city solicitor does not specify how
the latter is to be selected. Therefore
they presume that Council has the power
to elect.
A precedent, however. was set by City
Solicitor Conrad who had the first an
pointmcnt under the new law which was
passed in 1897 and who appointed John
f. Lynn without the appointment being
called in question
The Republican members of Council.
Messrs. Fisher, Stewart and Pierson will
strongly oppose the ordinance.

Held I'D by ,Tramps.

Riverside, N. j. June 13.-In the
broad light Of day three tramps held
up and robbed Thomas Evans, an in
surance agent, on the Riverton road
this afternoon.
Evans says that he was on his way
to Riverside with about 800 In his
pockets, and as he got near Taylor's
station, about mile from here, he
encountered the tramps, who asked
him for money. When no told them
he bod none they at once attacked
him. Knowing that he was no match
for three able.bodied men, Evans en-.
deavored to escape, but the toughs
were too quick for him. One of them
grabbed him by the arms, while an
other got him by the throat, and
they held him as in wise. The third
tramp had no trouble then in going
through Evans clothes. They got
the 500 and escaped.
AS soon as he could do SO Evans got
word to the police all along the line,
and also sent word to Camden, as the
thieving tramps seemed to be moving
in that direction. With all that cash
in their pockets the men are not like
ly to be sober long enough to escape.

A FIENDISH
ATTEMPT.

Williamsport, Pa, June 13.-A
tiendish attempt to burn to death
the family Of Joseph Teufel, of Du-
boistown, was; made last night.
About Ito o'clock Mrs. Teufel, who
has been an invalid for several years,
was awakened by the Sitting effect of
smoke and called to her daughter
Annie, who occupied the same room.
The latter realized the house was on
fire and picking up her mother, car
ried her out onto the kitchen roof.
Running back, she aroused her faith
er and brother.
The flames were raging all over
the lower part Of the house, and es.
cape by the stairway being cut off,
all sought refuge on the roof of the
kitchen. Their cries alarmed the
neighbors and a ladder was run up
to the roof, down which the Teufels
escaped. After hard work by buc-
ket brigade the flames were extin-
guished.
An investig alton revealed that the
fires had been started in four diff
ferent places each under bed room.
Kerosene had been poured over the
carpets, furniture and on the walls.
There is not the slightest clue to
the incendiary. Mr.. Teufel says he
did not know he had an enemy in the
world. Hattie Teufel, daughter,
was calling on some friends las even.
ing and the door had been left I'M
locked for her return. 1t issuppes ed
the incendiary entered through this
door.

RACE WAR
AFTER MURDER

Shreveport. La, June 10. A race war has
prevailed here since yesterday, when John
Gray Foster, a prominent planter, was
shot and killed by Prince Edwards a me-
gro employed on the oster plantation,
five miles east of this city.
Armed posses Of whitemen have been
securing the country for miles around in
Oil attempt to capture Edwards.
A dozen or more negroes are under ar
rest In kennebrews STORE and their fate
tonight Is uncertain. Foster was widely
known and very popular. He was broth
er In law Of Governor McMillin, of Tenu-
essec.
There had been bad feeling for some
time past between the Negroes and over
seers on the Foster plantat and Foster
was appealed to to settle the differences.
The planter startcd for the plant alton,
and upon reaching negro cabin he was
fred upon and killed. There were dozen
or more negroes In the cabin and they
broke and ran In all directioDs
Tho over seers were quickly joined by
white citizens, and 1t was not long before
all the negroes were arrested siugle
exception being Prince Edwards, who, it
is said, did the shooting. Posses were
quickly formed and started on hunt for
the negro, but as yet have made no fur
Their arrests,
There were many wild rumors afoat
throughout the day, the most sen sn tional
being that the :negroes In ksnnebrew's
were In imminent peril OF being lynched.
This rumor proved TO be untrue, although
many threats were heard against the pris.
onsrS.
The store whore the negroes are con fined
is guarded by posse of twenty five men,
armed with Winchester rifles, and unless
sentiment changes, the disposition tonight
would Indicate that the majority, n not
all. the prisoners will pc let of with .
thorough whipping
Edwards, II caught will DO burned or
