DELAWARE MAY RECEIVE BENEFIT.
Decision Of New Jersey Courts Help to Get
Corporations in Delaware.

DNN'9'O" " w" SSiSSy SOhItS neip 10 uet
Corporations in Delaware.
Some Wilmington lawyers are of the
opinion that the recent decision of the
New Jersey Supreme Court on the
general incorporation act of that state
will be of direct benefit to Delaware.
The decision of the New Jersey
Supreme Court to the effect that a
company chartered in New JERSEY
could only issue stock in payment
for services or property so bought are
actually worth the stock given for
them may result in our favor. The
Delaware law especially provides that
the directors of a company may issue
stock for services or property and that
i'll the absence of fraud, the Judgment
of the directors In the matter must
be taken as final This is considered
great advantage and it is expected
that hereafter more corporations will
come to Dover for charters. In addi-
tion it is pointed out that charters is
sued under the Delaware law are not
subject to legislative amendment while
in New Jersey they are.

LAW FOR TEACHERS CERTIFICATES.
Three Kinds of Certificates Will be Granted

kinds of certificates, known as profess
sIonal, first grade and second grade
The professional will be good for ten

second grade for two years. The
standard for those entering the pro-
fession is raised from 60 to Is per CEN
tum.

Making
Many Machines.
Great Advancement In
Wheel Art.
Chainless Patterns Forging to
the Front.

the front.
From commercial viewpoint, the
beginning of the new century finds the
bicycle industry in this country in ex-
first made its appearance has the bus
mess of its manufacture and sale been
carried on so satisfactorily as now
never, we believe, has the quality of
the machines produced been better or
their price SO reasonable; and at no
time has there been clearer or more
widespread understanding among rid
ers of what constitutes a first class
machine. The truth of these state
ments is shown in many ways. The
systematic conduct of the bicycle in
dustry is apparent from the lack of
strife and indecision among the man
ufacturers, and absence Of unfavorable
criticism of their output is proof enough
that never has been excelled.
Believing, therefore, that the wheels
of 1901 will he taken at the proper val
ue and that their sale will be large
makers and dealers are planning for
busy spring All over the country cy-
ceive large orders, and stores and shops
are being renovated and enlarged. EX-
perienced and wide awake agents who
have visited the South and West aver
that several features of the trade this
year contrast very strongly with the
conditions prevalent in the past. They
report that, particularly in towns and
small cities, there has been a general
clearing out of small dealers whose
responsibility was doubtful, whose
capital, in many cases was too small
to enable them to meet the exigencies
of their trade. Their places have been
filed by trustworthy representatives
of large and established manufacturers
with reputation for conservatism and
fair dealing which promises to inspire
confidence and promote business.
The desire for improvement, ever
present in America, has been the cause
of marked advancement in the art of
matchmaking, and the various mechan-
ical features of this years models seen
at the Cycle Show become even more
striking no wthat the wheels are ac-
tually in use. The cushion frame, for
example, which has undergone ma
terial changes, appears in greatly i'm
proved form, and is sure to have host
of admirers, particularly among the
middle aged persons who hitherto have
found the bicycles vibration objection
able. But if any one Of the three dis
tinctive models of this years make
the chain mount, the chainless, and the
motor cycle-becomes more popular
than another, it is likely to be the
chainless. Heretofore the wheels of
this pattern, it may be said, have had
merely an experimental existence; but
the term of doubt and experiment is
now ended and in the coming months
chainless machines, with their careful.
ly encased gears, and with their price
reduced to reasonable figures are GER
tain to be prominent.

A CLOSE CALL.

The many friends of Ed. Single are
very happy to think that he is on earth
today, for he came very near being
drowned last Sunday afternoon. With
many others, Ed. had been out enjoy
ing picnic in the woods. He rode a
black horse belonging to r. E. Parcher,
which no one else has ever been able
to successfully manage, and when at
Rothchilds, he took him to the river to
give him water The animal plunged
into the water and Ed. hung on to him
trying to get him out. In a moment
they were into deep water and the
horse became simply unmanageable in
his plungings and Ed. had to strike out
for shore to save himself.
He had become tired in his work of
trying to get the horse to shore and
would have drowned if it had not been
for the assistance rendered him by the
men OF the party. AS it was Ed. went
to the bottom twice and was rescued
when about to go down the last time.
The horse was drowned.

TWO JURIES.

At q recent meeting of the council it
was decided to act with favor on the
petition signed by ten property holders
along Stewart avenue, asking that the
street be made uniform in width, by
taking away twenty feet on the north
side from First to Fourth avenues,
leaving that portion sixty feet wide in
stead of eighty, and thus conforming
with the balance of The street. To do
things lawfully jury of twelve men
was appointed to decide the matter,
composed of A. A. Book, Ed. Heiman,
John Wolf, John Manson, Hugo Peters,
RObt Schmidt, Chas. Beck, W. w.
Albers, VIM. Waterhouse, Mic. Gender,
Aug. Kroening and Emil Holman.
This jury met Saturday and after re-
viewing matters eleven of the members
decided that inasmuch as the land to
be given to the property holders was
of practically no value, and could be
used for no purpose except at an
expense to some one, it would be advis
able to deed it to the owners of the
property abutting. There was one
member of the jury, however, John
Wolf, who could not see things in that
light. He did not believe in giving
anything away that belonged to the
city. At some time in the future, he
thought, this twenty foot strip might
be of value, and he would not therefore
attach his signature to any paper where
by the city lost this land. The jury was
therefore hung up.p
This morning Sheriff Marquardt sum
moned another jury composed of the
following: V. A. Anderson, F. E. Mar
quardt, II. c. Bratz, c. F. Thalheim, R
III. Kroening, F. Jawort, Gustav Muel
Ter, John Heinrich, Jacob Drumm, B
Zielsdorf, VIM. Bibby and H. Gerbsch
These gentlemen, after viewing the
condition of the street, deemed it neces
sary that the street be narrowed, and
so rendered their verdict.
