NEW ROUTE PLANNED.
Front Street Cars to Run over the du Pont
Street Line.

Front Street Cars to Run Over the du Point
Street Line.
The officials of the Wilmington City
Railway Co. expect by the latter part
OF the week to operate the new du Point
street. line In connection with the
Front street line. A turnout is now
being put down in du Pont street be
tween Seventh and Eighth, and as
soon as it is completed the Front street
cars will run over the du Pont street
line.
For the present the eastern terminus
of the line will be at Fourth and
Spruce streets, but as soon as the
Spruce street line is completed the
eastbound cars will run from the Della
ware avenue station of the Baltimore
Il Ohio railroad south on du Pont
street to Lancaster avenue, east to
Walnut street, north to Fifth, east
to Spruce and north on Spruce to
Eleventh. Westbound cars will run
south on Spruce street from Eleventh
to Fourth, west On Fourth to French,
to Front and over the same route as
the eastpound cars.
Eventually it il expected that there
will be loop connecting the Spruce
and Washington street lines, which
will enable the company to establish a
belt line system.
The company contemplates other ex-
tensive improvements, including an
extension to Rockford and the en-
larging of the powerhouse.

THADDEUS STEVENS WILL
Some Of lis Provisions Are Now About
TO be Carried Into Effect.
SIXTY THOUSAND FOR A HOME
No Preference on Account of
Race or Color.
WORK TO Be PROCEEDED WlTHAT ONCE

Lancaster, Pa, Jan. J9-After a
delay OF 80 years, the provision of the
will OF Thaddeus Stevens, the "Old
Commoner, providing for the estab-
lishment In this city of house OF
refuge for the relief of homeless and
indigent orphans, will be carried into
effect.
Stevens died 10 1868. and his will
provided that, under certain circum-
stances, il his estate should amount to
$50, 600, $780, 900 OF 1t should be ex-
pended IN the erection of home, in
which no preference should be shown
on account OF race, color or religious
belief, and the residue should be in
vested In government securities bearing
no less than 6 per cent interest.
The heirs maintained that the estate,
without the accrued interest, did not
reach $50, 900, and on that line carried
the case to the Supreme Court and
lost. All the executors having died,
the Lancaster Trust Go. was appointed
trustee and recently the Stevens Or
phans Home of this city petitioned the
court to issue an order on the said
trustees to turn over to the association
the Stevens fund, now in its possession,
amounting to nearly $50, 600.
An opinion was handed down today
by Judge Landis, grsnting the prayer
Of the petitioner, and the work of carry
ing into effect the charitable idea Of
Stevens will be proceeded with at once

burglars Becoms Very Bold In That Sec

Robberies and attempted robberies
appear to be all the go at Chadds' Ford
aud vicinity Of late, and now three
more are added to the list. A few
nights ago thieves entered the kitchen
at the hotel OF which John Twaddels Is
the proprietor, and took several arti-
Giles Of wearing apparel that had been
placed there to dry. They were evil
IDENTIFY frightened off before getting all
they wanted, AZ nothing else was dis
turbed. An entrance was gained by
prying open kitchen window. The
same night an attempt was made to
gain an entrance to the house Of John
Bicking, but he heard the intruders
and, procuring his trusty firearm,
caused them to beat hasty retreat.
The following night some one gained
an entrance to the cellar Of the resi-
dence Of Marion Richie, one mile west
OF Obadds' Ford, and bad wagon
backed IN to the outside door evidently
with the intention Of loading in every
thing they could find. Unfortunately
for them Mr.. Richie heard o noise aud
springing from his bed threw UP the
window, Just 10 time to see two men
Jump lnt0 the wagon ana drive rapidly
away. He had no firearms at hand,
consequently the would-be thieves es-
capped any injury and without anything
for their trouble.
These frequent attempts to rob has
aroused the people OF the neighbour
hood, and extra precautions to guard
against them are being taken. Some
| Of the residents of the village are Of
the opinion that the work is being
done by thieves from Wilmington,
while others think it is the work of
amateurs, owing to the fact that so
often they do not suoce.d. Everybody
lris on the lookout and hope to succeed
in locating the guilty parties.
These thieves are not particular as to
| what they steal and take any and
everything they can carry or haul.
Among those who have been visited Of
late are Harry Wilson and Samuel
Wright, each of whom has had pigs
| that were already dressed, stolen, while
Samuel Forsythe lost all his poultry
and neighbor had two pairs Of shoes
and clothing taken.

HER BODY EATEN BY RATS.

Chicago, ILL.,, Jan. 2l.-With her
face gnawed beyond recognition and the
flesh of her hands and feet eaten by
rats, Mrs. Nora Hanniefan was found
dead at her home, 33 Sennott Place, last
night, by John Adams, a friend of the
family who called at the house.
The woman's body lay on the floor,
with her head resting on the edge of a
washtub. There was every Indication
that she had been dead several days.
The rings from her fingers were found
scattered about the floor, whore they
had rolled when gnawed off by the rats
that infested the house and were rapidly
eating the decomposed body.

CATCHING COLD.
Cincinnati Commercial Gazette.


Cold weather lowers the vitality and
in that way renders the body less able
to resist the effect on the outside con,
ditions. This so makes the system
liable to be stormed by microbes.
Pneumonia invariably attacks people
whose vitality is lowered from some
cause or other-exoessive exertion, ex-
cessive worry, eyeu excessive grief,
which IL very potent. factor in the
lowering of vitality. Sometimes a me-
elected cold will help to produce the
disease, and 30 will the missing of q
meal while one is more or less run
down through the strain of business or
other excitement. In the ordinary way,
pneumonia by itself does not prove
fatal, except In the case CT very old or
very young people. TIE danger arises
when it is complicated by heart or kid
ney disease. II these organs are healthy
at the time that the disease sets in,
the patient invariably RECEIVERS, unless
he has exhausted himself at the begin
ming of the attack by being about the
house when he should have been in
bed.
1t has been found by experience that
while the harmful microbes grow in
the mouth, n any others also have their
habitation there whose offices are to
protect the body, as it we're, from these
microscopic foes. In the winter these
.'beneficent microbes as they have
been called, do not flourish 10 the
same extent as they do in the warmer
weather, so that the mouth and
through the mouth, the rest of the
body is left without its protectors, and
| il the individual does not by care come
to the rescue OF his body, he renders
himself liable to be attacked not the
less seriously because his foes are in
visible. While the ordinary "benefi-
cent" Inicrobe does not flourish in
cold weather SO well, the microbe of
pneumonia does, and grows active at a
temperature which is practically fatal
| to others.
That is the scientific solution of how
one catches cold. How 20 cure it?
Ask the first man you meet.

London, Eng Jan. 19.-British army
reforms, The Associated Press learns,
win consist chiefly In an endeavor 10
improve the existing methods of gem
eral military training, rather than In
any attempt to eradicate individual
defects. With more fully developed
home army, the administration believes
many of the drawbacks existing at
present will gradually disappear,
whereas ruthless reform would only
result in Reorganization and chaos.
With this end in view, a new
Manmuvres bill will be introduced,
giving the government plenary power
to select large tracts OF country, es-
pecially IN Ireland and Scotland, where
the home army will have the oppor-
tunity of maneuvring in considerable
numbers over rough and unknown
country, where the generals will have
the opportunity OF learning to handle
divisions In the opinion Of the Secre-
tary OF War, Mr.. William st. John
Brodrick, it is futile to criticise
officers and men who have never been
handled, or who have never co-operated
| except in the restricted confines OF AL
dershot, and some not even there,
where every inch of ground is known
| to almost every officer of the service.
The moors of Ireland and Scotland
are almost all the private property o.
aristocratio landowners who either use
them or let them for shooting purposes.
Hence, large compensation must be
paid. This, Mr., Broderick hopes to
get appropriated, in SPITE of the present
heavy taxation, believing it would be
an Investment which would save the
country millions in case of another war.
Many other changes are likely to come
| 10 force in due course of time. The
Board of Army Reorganization is sit
ting day in and day out dealing with
the immense problem; but the cardinal
point Of the deliberations, on which
| public opinion is UNANIMOUS, is the
necessity for the new Manteuvres bill.
Messrs. Wieks, president Of the
American Sheet Steel Co., and Huber
of the Pittsburg Steel Co., return &c
