WINS FIRST CAME
National League Basketball
Season Opens at Pyle's
Cycle Academy

The National League basket ball sea-
son opened last night in Pyle's Cycle
Academy under very auspicious circum-
stances Trenton was the attraction,
but the local team took the game to the
tune of 81 TO 20.
Wilmington rcoters seemed well sat-
isied at the work done by the team,
and the air was punctured by the
wind tanners, who cheered the team
ON to victory.
The seating facilities OF the ha.l have
been improved, and a very noticeable
thing was the absence Of tobacco
smoke, which proved such an annoy
ance last year. particularly to the
women. There were many Of the fair
sex present at the game, and they
seemed 10 enjoy it as much as their
escorts, If their hand-clapplng can be
guaged as a criterion.
IL the pace started last night is kept
up through the season, the team will
be near the top at the close of the sea-
son.
The games should be started earlier
however, as IL was nearly IL O'Clock
last night when the game was over.
Apparently there is only one weak
spot in the team as 1t played last night
and that place was the point filled by
Dennison. He is a good, strong young
fellow, and fairly fast, but he cannot
Of course fill George Brennans shoes
Lest might he fumbled but showed VI
we'll on long passes, the entire length
OF the cage. Dennison has really beer
signed as a substitute centre, and the
position he played last night at de-
fense will probably be filled before the
week is cut by Fern Reeves, the great
defense man of the Millville team. Il
Wilmington will keep up the fast worl
with its feet that it showed last night
and gets in a trife more team work
they win give every team in the leagu,
big hustle. The next game at the

HIGH SCHOOL WON
Defeated the Eleven Of the Whining
ton Business College

The Wilmington High School foot
ball team defeated the Wilmington
Business School by the score Of IL to
0 yesterday afternoon, at South Side
Park.
The High School should have made
a larger score than they did, owing to-
the fact that the Business School was
crippled on account of their fullbaclx
and other players being out of the
game. The contest was an interesting
one, despite the fact that it was played
in the mud. In some places on the
field the puddles of water were six
inches deep and some of the players
looked as though they had fallen over
board when they came out of the game.
The two touch-dOwns for the High
School, which netted them twelve
points, were secured by Brennan, who
played a nice game throughout, as did
Dougherty, until he was injured in the
second half Bell put up his usual
fast game at guard. Clayton. O'Niel,
Rettew and Kilvington also played a
good game for the Business School,
and Hughes distinguished himself at
centre. The lineup:

The little village of Carson, situ-
ated at the end of the pumpkin vine
running along the south river, had
quite an exciting time Tuesday. A
show visited that village and was
accompanied by gang of fak1rs,
short change men and shell games.
Before the big show they succeeded
in flimflaming many of the Indians
on the reservation out of their
hard earned cash. The city author
tiles took hand, officers armed
with warrants went to the grounds
but the guilty parties had gotten
wind OF such move and fled. The
show was owned by man and
woman. Deputy Sheriff Johnson
was sent for and arrived there on
the evening train but was unable
to locate any of the proprietors
although he searched the entire
train. A man who will patronize
shell game or buy anything at a
cheap John show must expect to
get the worst of it.-Avoca Journal

What a fool boy will do to show
how brave he is was fairly illustrat-
ed Tuesday night. Charlie Johnson
was walking up the track in front of
the west bound passenger train,
which was coming in at good rate
of speed, and to show his nerve he
kept on the track until the engineer
was obliged to put on the air and
whistle for him to get off. Such ac-
tions may be smart but to the rail
way men they are anything else, as
few of them have desire to kill
anyone. In this case it happened to
be the engineer that ran over and
killed a little girl at Underwood a
few weeks ago, and the chances are
that even the prospects of knocking
fool boy into kingdom come would
have but little glory in it for him.

A Crusoe Coincidence.

Rev. DR.. Edward Everett Hale calls
attention to some quaint and curious
features in connection with Robinson
Crusoe, which have not hitherto been
pointed out. He writes:
Readers who are curious in English
history must not fail to observe that
Robinson Crusoe was shipwrecked on
his island the 30th Of September 1850.
1t was in that month the English COM
monwealth ended, and Richard Crom-
well left the palace at Whitehall.
Robinson lived in this island home for
twenty-eight years. These twenty
eight covered the exact period of the
second Stuart reign in England. Rob-
inson Crusoe returned to England in
June, 1887 the convention Parliament,
which established William Ill, met
in London at the same time. All this
could not be an accidental coincidence.
Defoe must have meant that the True
born Englishman' could not live in
England during the years while the
Stuarts reigned. Robinson Crusoe was
a ruler himself on his own island, and
was never the subject of Charles IL.
or James III. He was not a man with
out a country because he had a little
country of his own, but he was a man
in a country where there was no king
but himself"

WORK FOR IMMIGRATION.

When View ing Coronets the Public
Fancy Is Busy.
Coronets are delusion and a snare
The gold and silver smiths of London
are now busy making headdresses for
the peers who will be present when
King Edward is crowned. In popular
imagination peer is supposed to wear
his coronet frequently and hang it on
his bedpost when he goes to bed. AS
a matter of fact the majority of peers
found, when the subject of the corona
tion came up, that there was not
single coronet about the house. So
they gave orders for the making OF
these ornamental appendages to rank
and they do not propose to spend much
money on them either. Ordinarily
peer can wear jewels in his coronet-
But if a peer not Of royal blood ap-
peared before the king with his head

nobody knows what would happen;
something awful, no doubt. to the Brit
ish constitution. Such a catastrophe
is averted by wearing on occasions
such as a coronation, coronets studded
with lozenges of gold to represent dia-
monds and Silver balls to represent
pearls. The dukes will have lot OF
these little gold lozenges in their cor
onets and the marquises will call upon
those of lesser degree tn imagine the
little silver balls on the spikes of their
official topnots to be pearls of great
price. A viscount will demand still
more Of the populace, for he will have
fourteen silver knobs around his cor
onet and will ask that he be consid-
cred as wearing "a circlet of gold en-
riched with jewels" A really first
class coronet, warranted to wash, ike
those which are being prepared for the
coming coronation of King Edward,
can be bought for $3.50. That is said
to be the average price which is being
paid for them now in London.-New
