COURT WILL
DECIDE QUESTION
Appointment Of Deputy SOIici.
tor by Council Will Pre-
Cipitate Suit

From present indications. Wilmington
will have two deputy city solicitors after
July /, one TO be Philip L. Garrett, the
appointee of City Solicitor-clect Rein
hardt, and the other appointed by the
Democratic city Council. That mandamus
proceedings 20 determine the legal status
of the respective candidates Will grow out
of these complications, already is assured.
The opposition to Mr.. Reinhardts eN-
pressed intention of naming Mr.. Garrett
his assistant, took decided form last
evening. when in City Council an ordinance
was introduced providing for the naming
of a deputy solicitor. This action, GER
tain Republicans contend. Is necessary i'm
asmuch as there is no law on the statute
books, which fixes the manner of appoint
ing such an official Mr.. Reinhardt says
that I'm appointing Mr.. Garrett he acted
according TO precedent, and that notwith-
standing the pronounced opposition that
| is being made to Mr.. CARROTS appoint
ment. the TIockessin man will get the Of
flee on condition that he becomes a resi-
dent of this city before assuming his du-
ties. This Mr. Garrett says he will do.
Legal proceedings will grow out of the
complications as soon as Mr.. Garrett and
1.-The Democratic official to be appointed by
lCity Council meet in City Court TO prose-
lcute violators Of the city ordinance.
1t is probable that Mr.. CARROTS rival
for the office will be either Samuel s.
Adams or Baldwin r. Springer.

Why Not Ride with oomforr2

The use of rubber for tires on car
riages and other vehicles is becoming
more common every day. When they
were first introduced. they were re
garded as a luxury which only the rich
could enjoy But, science has intro
duced improved methods of manufac-
ture. Besides the dmand has led to
the cultivation of the rubber plant, so
that large tracts of land are now de-
voted TO this purpose. This has led TO
the cheapening of the process, and
rubber tires are now no longer a lux
ury, but a necessity
Experience shows that the saving in
repairs TO the carriage more thar
cOmpcnsates the extra first cost of put.
ting them on. Besides vehicles fittet
with them are much more easil,
drawn, and therefore easier for tn,
horse. But. greatest of all is, you arr
able 10 ride with comfort and can carr,
on a conversation in an ordinary tom
OF voice.
In purchasing tires. however. il 1
very important that you have only frs
quality rubber, and that they are pu
on with care. The Wilmington Whee
company. of this city, whose factory i
at Elsmere. has fitted up a shop 70
this purpose with the latest improve
machinery, and it fully guarantees
its rubber to be first-class in ever
respect.

by. There was not a poor recitation
delivered, and the pupils displayed the
confidence of thorough training. 4
large audience attested its appreciation
by rounds of applause.
Friends School has had a ilatterine

sOr Herschel A. Norris and his corps
of able assistants. Miss Mary jackson

mar school, and Miss Helen Ruth HUI
born, A. b., (SwarthmOre), has charge
of the boys department.

showing of the power of training th'
hand and eye to use the crayon anC
pencil brush.
