salers of the city. He also stated to
the spotter that he was loaded with
over $1,000 worth of liquids, and had no
fear of the police. Chief Stahl was also
a witness He got out his little book
and read the history of the raid. Among
the things on his list were 81 kegs and

introduce any evidence to the contrary,
SO Judge Balm calmly assessed the am
bilious wholesaler 81, 200 and 240 days in
jail, or $500 and go days on each OF the
four counts The appeal bond was
valued at 81. 500. Judge Balm seems to
be in favor of giving the limit on all
occasions.

GREATER
WILMINGTON.

A morning paper prints the fol-
loving in regard to Greater Will
mlngton:
lLslstent rumors have gone afloat
that the new steamboat company,
lately chartered at Dover to do
land and water wav-passage and
[relgtt-between this city and
Philadelphia, had its eyes on
Seventh street near the marsh, as
base for it's operations. Promi-
nent business men 1t is said. are
greatly interested in beginning the
march 10 the river front, and they
think that they have discovered the
foundation upon which to build
their long felt want and desire.
1t is the plan of the interested
ones to have the steamboat COM
pany build wharf at the foot of
Seventh street, and have the Peo.
pies Railway Company extend its
tracks which are already laid on
Seventh street to the wharf. 1t
will be costly project, however,
but prominent business man who
is the third largest land owner Of
the cherry Island Marsh Company,
said yesterday that if the projec-
tors Ct the new steamboat line
meau to act he had c scheme that
would be a good opening for them
as we'll as the city and the land
owners. The business man said
that it would take about $50. 900
counting the construction Of a wharf
and other steamboat necessities to-
gether with the railway track ex.
tension. 1t takes about $4,000 to
build one mile OF electric trolley
line, aud 1t would take $l25. 600 to
build the wharf. The largest owner
in Cherry Island is the PennsYl-
varia railroad, and this gives many
of the interested ones, especially
the steamboat men OF the opposition
lines, the opinion hat the new com.
pany will make its home a. the key
to the water tlont and that the big
railroad corpor ration is backing the
enterprise.
Shuuld the wharf be built at the
foot Of Seventh street, the Brandy
VINE Springs road would probably
dr'.t with the march OF progress
and spread its network OF trolley
tracks to the steamboat landing.
The revival OF the river front made
apparent by the newly chartered
steamboat company, many per-
sous are Of the opinion that if the
company could be induced TO have
its IandlGs and place OF business
there, it would mean greater

Engineers in Convention,

Plttston, Ja., July Is. The In
ternatlonai Association OF Station
airy Engineers held convention
here today. The proceedings were
secret aud all the information the
press committee wouldgive out was
that considerable routine business
was transacted.
1t is understood the late strike Of
the stationary tiremeu caused
good deal of Discussion. Many OF
the engineers went out in smpya-
thy with the tremen, and while all
the iiremen have their old places
back, there were some engineers
Who had not been reninstated.
Some OF the speakers in the con.
ventIon thought the engineers had

The president of the convention
IS said to have received assurances
from the executive officers OF the
United Mine Workers that every
effort will be made to secure the
reinstatement OF the engineers and
that It would not be we'll to take
any hasty action looking to the
censure Of the hyemeu or any other

HOW NOT
TO WORRY.

I will lift up mine eyes to the hills
from whence cometh my help.
My help cometh from the Lord,
which made heaven and earth.
Psalms l21: 1.o.
Whether the Psalmist writer was
court.minstrel, exile-poet or shep-
herd, he sang ofmountains, shepherds,
4 rural life and scenes.
The shepherds were the keepers of
their t1ocks reminding Christians
that Jesus is the Shepherd and bishop
Of their souls. They were surround
ed by protective elevations remind.
ing Christians to keep within the
limits Of evils dangerous to their
| soul. Outside the elevations were
the sentinel guards as the strong
arm Of the government protects.
Trihes worry and 1t is better to
fill the mind with things good and
great. 1t is better not to look down
and worry over the dust beneath the
feet but to look to the mountains and
hills, the merry streams, the calm
rivers, the serene and expansive
landscape.
The works of nature point to ma
lures God. Sublimity, greatness
and grandeur amid safe and peaceful
protection from enemies. enabled the
p salmist to rejoice in the Lord who
made heaven ana earth.
The protective surroundings Of the
Shepherds were like the limitations
that surround Chris tians, conductive
tosafety and liberty. The righteous
enjoy the most liberty. The power
of Christ's life in the Christian puts
an send" to the law to him by rea-
son of non violation. The absence
of desire to break the law is liberty.
Those mountains OF the Holy
Land did more than perform their
physical functions. They helped to
moral, intellectual and spiritual ele-
vations. The Psalmist instead of
worrying over triIling things found
help by lifting up his eyes and
thoughts to the hills and the Lord
who made them.
