morning before Acting Judge Churchman
on the charge of vi latiug the law by having
their places of business open last Sunday,
notwithstanding the recent decision of the
court that 1t was illegal to conduct such

Frisby pleaded guilty, but made speech
in his own behalf, in which he said he

diseiimin alton. He WIS willing to close his
place OF business II cigar stores and other
such places were closed, but he had been
informed that those places conld not be
closed unless there were complaints against
them. he thought It was a piece of in.
justice on the part of the people interested
in the prosecution, but did not blame the
Judge for enforcing the law. Whereupon,
the court imposed fine of "a, or, in default
OF payment, imprisoned for "a hours. Frisby
preferred the latter alternative and WINS

to being incarcerated in the lower tiel

The local Addicks organ asserts that
tho people of Delaware "haVe over and
oyor again approved Mr. AddiclSs' sena-
toria candidacy They have done
nothing OF the kind When the people
OF Delaware approve Mr.. Addioks'
senatorial candidacy" they will elect a
Legislature which will send him TO the
United States Senate. But they have
never elected such Legislature. They
have elected Democrats who would not
think of voting for Addioks, and they
have elected Republicans who would
sooner see the State go unrepresented
than be repres ented by Addioks. And
these two anti-Addicks clements have
thus far proved effective in keeping
Addicks out OF the Senate. And these
anti Addicks elements have represented
public sentiment in Delaware, or they
would not have been sent to the Legis
lature. We repeat; When the people
of delaware ''approve Mr.. Addicks'
senatorial candidacy they will elect q
Legislature which will send him to
the United States Senate, and not
belore.

AGAINST GAMBLING.
Protest Against Bills Under Which Pool
Selling Might be Revived.

Protest Against Bills Under Which Pool
Selling Might be Revived.
The following memorial has been ad-
dressed TO the Senate and House of Repre-
sentotires of the Commonwealth Of Penn
sylyania:
The representatives of the religious society
OF Friends for Pennsylvania, New Jersey
aud Delaware have observed with deep regret
that bills have been before the Legislature
bills No. 134 and Nos. 1898 of the Senate
tile and one or two others of similar import
to so amend the act OF lSy, to punish pool
selling, receiving and transmitting bets or
aiding in pool selling or betting, as to
except from its provisions the selling Of
pools and the other acts above enumerated
within the enclosures or grounds OF agricul-
tural societies or driving clubs.
The vicious results Of betting on horse
races or any other form of gambling have
long been recognized by the laws OF Penn
sylvania. and 1t needs no elaborate argu-
ment from us 10 cali your attention TO them.
Pool selling is closely allied to, II not In
principle, lottery, now under the ban OF
nearly every State In the Union. The State
oil New Jersey has had sad and costly ex-
perience OF the public evils attendant ont the
very practices which 1t is proposed to en-
courage and legaliae in this State by the
bills in question, They became SO intolera-
BILE that dominant party was overthrown
at tho polls by the moral sentiment OF the
people, chiefly on that issue, and subss.
9nently horse racing and pool selling we're
forbidden by stringent laws. Two successive
Legislatures of that State have adopted an
amendment to tho Constitution prohibiting
these practices. which has sincs been IN.
eeorporated into the Constitution OF New
Jersey.
The State of Maryland has also had
similar and costly experience of the evils
attending these practices.
On behalf of the members OF the religious
society which we represent--and, we believe,
In consonance with the moral convictions OF
the great body Of Christian people In the
state OF Pennsylvania-we earnestly femon-
etrate against these measures as having no
good purpose within their scope. and fraught
With mischief to the morals ana prosperity
81 the whole Commonwealth.
Tn behalf and by direction OF the repre-
sentatiyes aforesaid at a meeting held at
philadelphia the 18th day of the Third
Month, 1901.

Our People Arc Honest and Honorable.

Our People Are Honest and Honorable.
Referring to the senatorial deadlock
at the recent session OF the Delaware
Legislature--a deadlock resulting from
the selfish insistenoe Of "Addioss or
nobody" on the one hand, and the
patriotic response of Nobody rather
than Addicks" on the other the
Chicago Chronicle says:
II the people OF Delaware were not
in the main Intelligent and honorable,
their commonwealth would afford q
fine opportunity for the exploits OF a
mau ike Addicks. Its territory is
small and Its population Is very limited.
The Legislature OF the State is body
having such q limited membership that
in point Of numbers it doss not com
pare fayorably with Board of Alder
men in cities of the third and fourth
class. The fact that Addicks. with all
of his lavish outlays of time, money
and influence, has not been able in elk
or eight years to control the little
Legislature Of this little State is the
lest evidence that the people Of Della
ware are naturally inclined to be honest
and honorable. There are many larger
States In which, with the assistance
Of compliment party machine, he, OF
a man like him, would have had q
great deal more success.
Fortunately for Delaware and fortu-
nately for the American Union, there
has not been time since Addichs he
gan his campaign when there have moi
been enough incorruptible and self
respecting men among the Republican
members OF the Assembly to defeat his
ambition, Finding it impossible oil
undesirable to effect coalition with
the Democrats as against him, these
men have chosen as an evil less CALLING
than the election of Addicks woulc
have been, that the State should &c
without representation In body ii
which il once was notable for the higt
character and great ability of it's Ssna
tors. II The seats once worthily oocu
pied by the Bayards and Salisbury
can not be creditably filled, it is bette
that they should be vacant.
This is correct sizing up Of tht
situation. At heart, the great body o
the people Of Delaware are honest ant
honorable, and, being so, they prefe
no representation at all in the United
States Senate to being represented +.
Addicks.
But Addlcks has disfranchissd tn
people of Delaware and deprived then
of all representation in that 'igreates
deliberative body in the world, ;
where, until few years ago, the vuc
Of Delaware had been potent for NOR
than century. This is a reckoning
with Addicks that the people of Dela
ware win have 10 settle at the mex
election.

PERUPIAN INDIAN MUHMIEs.

Washington Tines
Three Peruvian Indian mummies
have just been received at tho Smith
sonian Institution and are looked upon
with some awe, rs they are certainly
$40 years old, IL not much older, dating
from the time OF the Spanish invasion,
or previous. The Society of Anthro.
POLICY was treated t. seance at the
opening Of one of these prizes night
or two ago, and 1t proved veritable
morgue, containing the body of a
woman and two tables. probably a
mother and children. The bodies were
imbedded In padding of leaves and
this il turn bound about with q piece
OF goods not unlike gunny sack, hsld
in place by a rope being wound about
it,
When the package was opened the
bodies were found to be doubled, with
the knees almost under the chin, and
while small particles only Of flesh and
skin were found tie long back hair oil
the woman was found adhering tc the
skull and shorter hair to the heads OF
the infants. This bodies were evidently
those OF indians OF the middle or lower
GLASS as no wooden mask, such as ia
placed over the dead faces OF those OF
mole exalted rank, was found. The
three bodies in one bundle would also
lead to this belief, as the Weather
people would NOT disinter their dead
and put Others ID the Jaokage.
These are indeed prize packages to
scientists, as each one is sure to con
tain treasures In accord with the rank
and wealth Of the corpse. In this one
was found an exquisite vase, having
on one side bird In raised design and
well-modeled handle on the other,
as fine a specimen of pottery az is ia
be found in the institution. Besides
this there was quaint work basket
quite as we'll kept as though laid away
yesterday instead of 500 or 400 years
ago. 1t was woven daintily and built
with two compartments, an upper and
lower one, and containing two spindles.
One WAS large with coarse flag wouno
about 1t. while the other was delicately
made and wound with finer thrt ad.
bean Iod peculiar to tree Of Peru
ratified about in the basket, and al
about IN the leaves were bits of white
cotton having in it the seed.

A coored man has been committed to
jail to await trial at the May term Of
General So sious Court. on charge of
stealing one chicken. The expenses at
tendant upon his stay in jail and trial
at the court will amount to many times
the value of the property alleged to
have been stolen. In fact, each day OF
his stay in Jail will amount to as much
as tho chicken was worth. The Legis.
lature made mistake in net extending
the jurisdiction of the Municipal
Court So that it could promptly dis.
pose of casas OF petty larceny like this,
and thus save mary dollars to the
