Petition For Railway.

An effort will soon be made to induce
the Wilmington City Railway Company
TO extend its lines to Newport and Stan
ton. Residents of Newport and Stanton
are preparing a petition for that purpose
which will be submitted to the railway
company.
II is understood that the Wilmington
City Railway Company has the right
according to its charter to run seven miles
from the city limits. Stanton and New
port would be good paying section for
the trolley road. The Wilmington road
can cross railroad tracks at grade.
Should the road be extended n line be-
tween Newport and New Castle will be
built. There are over one-hundrcd New
Castle people who work in the shops
along the west yard. 1t would be more
convenient for them to travel by the
Newport route.

Horse Meat In Germany,

Consul General Guenther, writing to
the department of state, says: "On
account of the high price OF other
meat, not only horse meat. but also
dog meat is used by people as an arti-
Gle of food in Germany. The new meat
inspection bill does not adequately
protect the consumer against bad
meat, but excludes many first-ciass
products from the country. Accord
ing to the statistical year book Of
German cities, IL appears that the con-
sumption Of horse meat is on the in.
crease, and in Breslau, Chemnitz. Dres-
den, LeipS's, Zwiekau and other places
dogs are slaughtered for food"

Sticking to One Thing Paws,

Farmers who stick to the crops and
system of farming they have found
most profitable in the long run are
wisest, The low price of hops last
year induced many New York farm
ers to change to other crops and now
they are regretting it. The New York
Farmer says: Hops have doubled in
price since the close of the season of
1899. Last year at this time they sold
at seven to ten cents in Otsego and
other counties have received from II
to 20 cents pound for all the good
hops they have on hand. Some hop
growers turned to potatoes. and lost
their seasons work by drought. 9th
ers tried beans. cabbage and other
truck, and probably not one of them
all has bcttered his condition by turn
ing to other crops. Some of them are
decidedly worse Off as a consequence
of the change"

WORK IN
THE SLUMS,
An Interesting Talk by an
Army Officer Yester=
day Afternoon.

The Salvation Army believes not only
in attending TO the spiritual wants Of
man but believes that if a man, woman
or child is hungry to feed them, is their
first duty. At the same time it does not
harbor men in lazincss and feed them to
save them the trouble of earning their
own living. 1t provides shelter both for
men and women. We have work yards
and work rooms for them if they are
deficient of the small amount necessary
to pay for bed and food to earn it with
their own hands.
Another branch is called the rescue
work. This provides homes for fallen
girls who are desirous of living a Writ
uous life, it also provides them with
work while in the home and situation
1t starts them out in life again as far
AS possible on a level with the rest of
womcnkind and are well looked after by
the rescue officers. There are many
other branches Of work pursued neces-
sary to the uplifting and helping Of hu.
manity but will only mention one more.
That is the slum work.
The slum officers are women. They
live in the slums, which means n life of
tbHtlHudl buTlHH tHc uuy
they visit the sick, feed and wash them,
clean their wretched homes, no matter
how dirty and tell them of a better
world. The children are taken care of
during the day while the mothers go out
to earn their meagre wages. At night
they hold public meetings through which
many are converted anu become good
citizens. The Salvation Army believes
that the people are its neighbors and
accordingly have gone to their assistance
A meeting to represent this slum work
and lecture upon the subject was given
in the hall at No. 800 Shplcy street on
Saturday night by an officer who has
been engaged in this work. He appeared
in the slum officers costume.
To help these different branches Of
work, both home and foreign. we will. in
the month of March. the exact date to
be given later, have sale Of work.
Any and everything salablc will be
gratefully received.

THE PURE FOOD BILL.
Enforcement Will Benefit
American Farmers.

1t is gratifying to learn that all op.
unified on pure food bill and that the
measure may become law soon. Sen
ator Mason and Representative Brosius
have now made their respective bills
exactly alike, and both branches of
congress viii support the measure. For
two years strenuous efforts have been
made to obtain legislation to prevent
the adulteration, misbrandng and i'm
itation of foods, beverages, candies,
drugs and condiments throughout the
United States. The Massachusetts, bill
is the final embodiment of these la
bors and will make desirable law.
Under this measure it will become
the duty of the chemical bureau of the
department of agriculture to inspect
food and drug products sent to it for
that purpose by the various branches
of the government. The bill prohibits
the shipment of adulterated or mis-
branded foods or drugs From one state
or territory to another or from this
country to foreign nation, under pain
of fine of $500 for the first offense
and $500 for succeeding offenses, with
imprisonment for one year, at the dis
erection of the court. Great care has
been taken to define exactly the mean
ing of the terms "adulteration" and
'misbranding," so that the law may not
be easily evaded. 1t gives promise Of
being a businesslike and effective meas
ure for protecting consumers against
frauds of this kind.
There has long been urgent need of
federal law against food adulteration.
The general governmen can deal much
more effectively with such frauds than
can the state or municipal government.
1t has better facilities for chemical
analysis and legal machinery for
bringing offenders to justice. With the
present vast development of interstate
commerce any matter of food adulter-
alton naturally becomes national
rather than local question. There is
reason 10 believe that federal law will
accomplish much good in curing exist
ing buscs.--ChicagO Tribune.
