Dover, Nov. 4.--The cunning season for
quail, rabbits and black ducks opens on
November 10. and the sport
ing fraternity anticipate a good season.
The finest sport Is quail shooting, and
all the reports agree that quail are plcn-
tiful in Kent county The farmers say
that there are also many coveys OF young
birds, besides many that have reached
their full size. The Delaware Game
Association met in Dover last week, and
after clecting the following officers for
the ensuing year, discussed plans for the
proper protection of the game from law
breakers and pot hunters.
Many summer ducks have been shot
this season, all along the Delaware bay
marshes.
Fruit growers are alarmed at the re-
ported spread of the dreaded San Jose
scale among some orchards ON this PENN
sula, but the energetic efforts Of tn,
fruit growers of Kent several years ago
resulted in almost an determination of
this dreaded insect from their orchards.
When it was first reported as being i'm
the orchards of Kent county, complete
inspections were made Of the infected or
chards, and through the liberal applica-
tion of spraying with emulsiOns.. tn,
spreading was checked. and the orchards
are now practically free from this pest.

of the capital city, held a union meeting
last evening in the Baptist Church. The
Rev. Charles A. Walker, of Milford

TRYING TO AVERT A STRIKE
Unless Discharged Men Are Taker
Back Miners Will Strike Tomorrow.

Back Miners Will Strike Tomorrow.
Scranton, Pa, Nov. at is quite
possible that the threatened strike Of
the 1000 men employed in the eight
collierles Of the Temple Coal company
may be averted. Superintendent
Thorne toldithe mems committee that
If it can be shown that the so dis
missed men were known by the fore
men to be Maltby strikers when they
were hired the company would proba.
bly, recall the dismissals. The men
say there is no question but that the
Temple company's foremen knew the
men were from among the Maltby
strikers.
President Nichols. of the United
Mine Workers, declared yesterday
that unless the dismisRls were called
tomorrow the men will be called out
from all of Temple company'g col.
lieries. He declared that the owners
Of the Maltby collieries have secured
the dismissals by use of the blacklist,
and that the mine workers propose
to make a firm stand against this
institution.
He also stated that the action of the
United Mine Workers executive board
In refusing lately to acquiesce in sew
eral requests for permission to strike
has been construed by the companies
to be a confession of weakness on the
part Of the men. and that the com.
panies have by this belief been en-
courages to aggressive steps against
the union.
1T has come to a pass where the
companies must be taught that they
are making a bad guess, Mr.. Nichols
said. "We have 10 make a stand some
time, and now, when we can have the
blacklist as an issue, we take it as a
good time to make a stand. We want
peace, but we don't propose to make
unreasonable sacrifices to maintain it, '

THE JOKE WAS ON GARDINER.

THE pev Charles Edward Brugler set off q

meeting of the Sons of the Revolution heio 81
Delmonicos last night to celebrate Evacuation

Then he caught sight Of Colonel Asa bro Nai :

who was occupying front seat SIN Iee' "l
from, the speaker. With the words Of defiance
of the departed clergymen, as repeated pS M
Brugler. still ringing in the hall. the speaker
turned m Colonel Gardiner, and said with
smile and bow:
Tho words attributed to our late distinguished
District Attorney with reference TO reform -
hell with reformtD are but the echoes, 66i+;Sb
men Of the sentiments expressed by the bilIl
toyrar5 the ministers of the Gospel one hundred
and twenty years ago
All the sons apparently thought this was al
exceedingly good thing indeed, for they shouted
uproaricusly and clapped their hands. Colohel
Gardiner looked dazed, and then, seeing that
everybody else was applauding. apparently
thought it was a good joke and followed SUIT
Mr. Brugler's remarks were closely listened TO
all the way through.
In another part of his address he said in re-
ferring to the tyranny Of King George: Inc
King said he would levy the taxes. and he told
the people they would have to pay those taxes
or go to prison. King George in action indicated
that he as we would express ii in modern IAN
guage. was working for his pocket all the
time "
The speaker said the three most potent rellg-
ions of the Revolutionary period were the Pres-
byterian the Church OF England and the
Friends. He dwelt more particularly on the
attitude of the Church of England ministers
than on that of the others. He said the Church
of England clergymen did much to check Sc
dition against the Colonies, and that at least -
per cent of them espoused the cause of liberty.
Frederick s. Tallmadge presided at the meet
ing Following the address Of Mr.. Brugier there
were prayer and an address by the Rev. Dr.
Flagg.
Refreshments were served after the speaking
