though, that after giving the matter
due and grave consideration, neither
the High School Alumni nor the
Young Mems Republican Club, which
will give moonlights on June II and
23 respectively, will issue an edict pro-
hibiting embracing. nor police the
boat to prevent it, on the occasion Of
their annual excursion.
Whether the world is growing more
sentimental. or whether the display OF
affection sometimes noticed on moon
light excursions is merely a species of
summer madness, orders which have
lust been issued at Broad Street Sta
ton. Philadelphia, to strictly enforce
the rule against permitting persons
without tickets to accompany friends
or relatives to the train steps for final
ieave taking, inclines one strongly to
the latter belief.
In effect. the order is as follows:
Hereafter, all farewell osculation.
born Of knship, marriage or first love.
must Oe performed outside of the
gates. either in the waiting room or in
the lobby which separates the waiting
room from the train shed"
THE average woman who comes
here to bid a friend farewell" said one
of the Pennsylvania officials at the
Broad Street Station yesterday, be
gins to kiss and say goodbye when
She enters the station and leaves a
streak of oscillations and by-byes from
the front entrance to the train steps.
This has got to be stopped. We would
prefer that all farewells should take
place at home, but this is manifestlJ
impossible. Folks who never think of
kissing at any other time always
break into it at depot, and you can't
stop them, while those who have the
habit get it worse than ever"

It was fitting for Charles H. Blaine.
president Of City Council. to give the
German Turner'S the freedom OF the
city. Had he not done so the populace
would have arisen in its might and
surrendered to the mighty horde, mem
bers OF the Philadelphia district Of
the Turngemeinde. We are always
glad to welcome such visitors TO our
midst and show them the many things
Of which Wilmington is proud. Again
we may learn something Of advantage
from these Turner's. They are ath-
letes who believe in systematic training
Of the body as well as Of the mind
They take the children when they starr
to school and place them under com
petent physical instructors. This train,
ing is continued all through life, ant
the result is a body of men and womer
strong in limb and mind. Today a
the Horse hSow Park the benefit t,
be derived from this training is beinl
demonstrated. It is a funniest Tn
idea is one of the many good one
brought here from the old country b.

American citizens All hail, Turner'S
and may the Turnfests increase in siz
with each passing year.

ARTIFICIAL ICE.
Principle Upon which This CommOd:
ity Is Manufactured.

Principle Upon which This CommOd-
ity Is Manufactured.
The principle upon which the manu-
facture Of ice is based Is that a gas
when compressed gathers heat enor-
mously, and If robbed of this heat and
allowed to escape at = future time it
seeks to regain its heat by withdraw
ing heat from its surroundings. Am
moRla gas is generally preferred to
others because it can be llquefied with
comparatively little pressure. On re-
moving the water from common am
monia by dist'llation anhydrous am
mOnia is obtained This is compressed
by combined steam pump and a com
pressor and the resulting liquefaction
induces heat, which is economical by
circulating water about the vessel or
pipe containing the liqueied ammonia.
Thus the ammonia is cooled and the
heat largely transferred to the water,
which is then pumped back to the
boiler that supplies the steam pump.
The liquid ammonia is then carried in
a pipe to expansion coils that afford
plenty of room for its evaporation,
when 1t begins to return to the gaseous
form and to draw heat from its sur
roundings. which gradually reduces
the temperature. Proper vessels Of
water are placed in contact with the
expansion coils, and in due time ice
Is formed

The "New Thought" in the Country

The "New Thought" in the Country
From the Philadelphia Press.
The more vague the principles of a
cult are so far as beliefs go the better
IL is. For its success may wane II its
practices be too concrete. The New
Thought movement is a case in kind.
Even the most careful of investigators
would find 1t hard to define the New
Thought" You can belong to the
movement and believe anything or
nothing so long as you thrill over the
brotherhood Of man and the useless
ness Of drugs and are buoyed up with
metaphysics applied to the hoe and the
soup plate. And therein lies its sue
cess.
The New Thought" however, in or
uer to keep up its hold on the con-
crete side of things, is about to start
a Summer colony about thirty-eight
miles from New York There THE New
Thought" folk are to irrigate their
brains with lectures on "The Sunrise
.of Spiritual Consciousness" "The viii
to be Well" The Mystical Death, -
"The Love-Life Of the New Age" while
irrigating their farms with the hose
and sprinklers in the arduous work OF
raising the gooseberry and the Sum
mer squash But not only that, in ad-
dition. the ''New Thought" Summer
School provides for music and art and
recreations. and life may be one
grand. sweet song" with board at
from $6 to IS per week in the country
homes. or even more untrammeled in
..-e tents and camps at from "a TO S.
week
All this seems very fine and the
summer school of the New Thought
may prove to be a great success, but
II the colony ever assumes any de-
gree of permanency It is to be feared
all the superior metaphysics won't
save it from a smash. There is Moth
ing that so takes the starch out Of
any of the new systems as the trying
to harmonize discordant elements in a
summer or a permanent colony The
New Thought is very new, but the
failure of Brook Farm ventures is very
old. and once the New Thought
starts that way as a cult its day Of use
! fulness will be over.

ROOSEVELT FIRM

President Roosevelt does not propose
TO be driven from his position OF in
sisting upon reciprocity with Cuba.
The resolution of the man is now be-
coming apparent. One less firm and
self-reliant might have been content to
remain passive while Congress should
kill the measure and thus invite CEN
sure to itself On Thursday he hasten
ed back to Washington, although he
had not expected to return so soon.
and yesterday he sent a special mes
sage to Congress insisting that faith
should be kept with Cuba. Very prop
erly he did not refer to the recent dis
closure to the effect that General Wood
had spent a considerable sum to infu-
ence public opinion favorably. by
sending out literature on the subject.
He kept close to the main points,
and presented the case with more
force and clearness than it has been
presented before
He speaks OF the close relations be-
tween the two countries, and insists
that as Cuba has agreed to certain con-
ditions IMPOSED by the United States,
we are in duty bound to make her GER
tain concessions. Continuing, he re-
fers to the words Of Mckinley i'm two
of his messages, advocating close and
recipl ocal commercial relations with
The people of the island.
He informs Congress that he has re-
ceived a message from our minister al
Havana containing an earnest appeal
from President Palma for relief before
It is too late. and Cuba is financially
ruined He urges that there are great
er reasons for reciprocal relations with
Cuba than with any other country, ant
argues that IL is not inconsistent witt
our protective policy. He makes Il
clear that from every standpoint it il
our duty TO grant the concession, ant
insists that America will be more
Than repaid by reason OF tncreasey
trade with the island.
The President has shown frmness a.
the right moment He recognizes tina
pressure is needed, and he does not hesi
tate to exert 1t. He does not paus'
to consider the effect that it will hav,
on his popularity. II he did. he woul,
remember that he has had large fol
lowing in those States where the besi
sugar interests are against his policy
With him it is a duty, and he woul,
do 1t we believe if he knew it woul,
jeopardize his chances in the mex
convention. That's the kind of Presi
dent we want.

Pretty old inventions are our modern
wash lists. The old German house
wife had an odd way Of keeping track
of the garments she gave out to be
washed. She had a picture Of each
article and wrote down the number Of
everything opposite to it with piece
of chalk. which was rubbed out when
the article was returned, to be used
again the next week. 1t was really a
pictorial and perpetual wash list.

came from the Regulars of New Castle.
The writer happens to know that not

SOME COMMITTEES

The Republican Committee OF Kent
comfy. which meets at Dover to-day,
has a most remarkable communication
to consider II might be thrown out
altogether on the grounds OF it's in
dehniteness and it's impertinence. Il
purports 10 be a proposition from the
Executive Committee OF Kent county,
yet ii has every appearance of coming
from the County Committee itself, be-
ing signed by the chairman OF that
body as such, and under the seal of the
county organization. II asks for a
joint call by the two parties for com
mon primaries but there is a saving
clause at the end, requesting an early
reply that the matter may be referred
to the Addicks State COMMITTEES.
We imagine that those Kent Repub-
licans will puzzle their Brains awhile
TO see what ii all means. A diagram
might De OF service. II requires some
thought to ascertain which body makes
The tender Of common primaries. Is
il the Executive Committee alone? OF
Is It acting for the County Committee?
But an answer 10 that doesn't satisfy,
Z for reply is desired in order that the
State body may pass upon it. So the
confusion grows worse as We proceed.
But, anyway, some committee writes
that it wants an expression OF an opin-
ion on the part OF the Republican
County Committee. in order that the
Addicks State Committee may weigh,
and accept or reject It at its pleasure.
The object is TO bind the Republicans
TO some course which may be consid-
cred by the other side. For, observe.
il the Republicans were TO accept the
proffer OF this communication. the Ad-
dicks people would not be bound, but
would have something to consider at
their leisure
IL is expecting much to anticipate
a favorable reply, since in all our his
tory county committees have been
charged with the affairs OF the parties
in their respective limits. Never has
a State Committee presumed to dictate
a county ticket The idea was first
put forth when the AddiclSs Commit
Tee OF New Castle announced that it had
no powers over county affairs, but had
turned over matters to the State Com
mittee But il appears that the Kent
county Addicks people recognize this
idea only in part. Its committee re-
serves to itself the right to dicker
but recognizes the State Committe,
as having the right to act.
Under these circumstances the Ken
County Republicans may well say
I'VE prefer to deal with the body tina
has power to act, and we want to know
who makes the profeF, and what au
thorty that body possesses?" Il
other words. there is a suspicion Of
confidence game, and the Kent count
Republicans are expected to shout 70
common primaries at the instance G

Miss Roosevelt and Coronation,
.rom the New York Jeurnal.

From the New York Journal.
 Miss Alice Roosevelt. oldest daughter of the President of the United States, has accepted an invitation to be present at the coronation of King Edward VII, in Westminster Abbey. on June b.
 Miss Roosevelt was crazy to go." What young girl of eighteen wouldn't be? President Roosevelt had doubts; but Mrs. Roosevelt prevailed. and it was promised that Miss Alice should go to the corona ton.
 As soon as this fact became known in England 1t was announced that Miss Roosevelt would be received with the honors due to the oldest daughter of an emperor.
 Then the trouble began. The first pub lie protest came from the United Irish Societies of Cincinnati who called meet ing passed resolutions of protest and sent a committee on to Washington to beg Mir. Roosevelt to reconsider. Other Irish-Ameriean societies have taken up the matter, and the Boer War Veterans and some Dutch associations have follow ed. At the same time, the question of Miss Roosevelt and the coronation has been debated here and there about the country and a flood of personal letters has poured into the White House declar- ing that it is most "un-American' for the daughter of our President to bow the knee and kiss the hand of king. All this tide of protest has been further stim- ulated by the recent disclosures of the at least dubious friendship of England at the critical moments preceding the late Spanish war And the climax of comment and criticism was, perhaps, reached when Congressman Wheeler of Kentucky, arose and addressed Congress on the matter.
 'T am only restrained from discussing what I regard as most unfortunate in- cident by the ordinary amenities which should obtain between one gentleman and another" said MT. Wheeler, 'I allude to the fact of the opportunity seized by the Chief Citizen of the Republic to send member of his family across the water for the purpose of participating in the coronation of king. I shall not discuss that, because, of necessity, 1t involves matters I do not care to go into here. l will say, in passing, that 1t is a most unfortunate circumstance"
 A portion of the resolutions of the United Irish Societies of Cincinnati reads as follows:
 Miss Roosevelt should be careful not to let the enemy-making English govern nent use her presence in England to en- gender enmity between our. nation and any one of England's many enemies. Her visit may be productive of much good if she could be induced to carry prayer full petition, containing the signatures of a million mothers, for mercy s for, the Boer babies.
 'If Miss Roosevelt should, through, the hearts of the mothers of England, free thousand Boer mothers heavy hearts from anguish every four weeks, she would not return to meet the sullen scorn of an offended people, but she would be met by the love- the appreciation and the joy ous acclaim of every American mother and patriotic father in the land"

daughters and nieces of monarchs.
 Miss Roosevelt will undoubtedly wear a court dress of white satin, cut low, and having long train. Whether this will be supplemented by robes of scarlet, trim med with ermine. similar to those of the English princesses, remains to be seen. She can hardly wear coronet of any pattern prescribed by European etiquette but it is pointed out that she may wear a magnificent jewelled tiara, which will serve all purposes of adornment without protesting to be an official American em- blem.
 When Miss Roosevelt Is invited to din- ner by the King he will give her his arm and take her to the banquet hall, where he will place her on his right hand. The table will be occupied exclusively by royal persons, all other guests, including even the highest members of the British nobility being seated at separate tables.

They wear polished steel helmets with horsehair plumes falling down their backs, glitter ing cuirasses, scarlet coats, loaded with gold lace. high boots and white brooches. Every man is over six feet high. With their assistance Miss Roosevelt will be able to see all the sights and do her shop ping with comfort and dispatch.

old but has much self-possession and force of character. She has a handsome, but somewhat severe face. Her carriage and figure are admirable.
 The proposed visit of Miss Roosevelt to England is a sequel to the special mis- sion which has been appointed to repre- sent the United States at the Kings cor onation. The special Ambassador is MT. Whitelaw Reid, while General James IL Wilson represents the army, and Captain Charles E. Clark the navy. The secre- taries of the missions are J. rIerpont Morgan, Jr., Edmund l.. Baylies and Will liam S. K. Wetmore
 In deference to the wishes of King Ed ward. it has been decided that the mem- bers of the American mission not wear ing military or naval uniforms shall wear court dress, including knee brooches, with black stockings and shoes with silver buckles. The King has been greatly pleased by this concession as well as by the proposed visit of Miss Roosevelt
