WAYFARER'S NOTEBOOK
Secretary CahilI's Joke

Milk Inspector McEvilly and Secre-
tary Cahill, of the Board of Health. are
warm friends but they delight in play
ing Jokes on each other. Cahill is
ahead but McEvilly says it will not be
long before he gets even. The other
day the Milk Inspector was walking
no Market street
AT Seventh street a milkman who
was passing leaned out of his wagon
and said
Here Milk Inspector. come and in
spect some good milk"
McEVilly placed his instrument in
one can and to his surprise found the
milk was below the standard. With
out saying n word he dumped it into
the gutter About fifty people were
standing around. Cahill happened to
be passing and cried out Look here.
McEyilly. you would not do that if you
had been paid"
The spectators did not know Cahill
and at once started to condemn the
Milk Inspector. He did not wait to
hear any more but left the scene VOW
ing to get even with Cahill.

necessary connection with it, There
is a difference between the promis-
cuous dancing at public balls and re-
sorts. and the quiet dance among the
friends in the home Even cards have
their defense There is perhaps not
one card player in a thousand who
CANDLES. and one who wishes to in
dulge in games of chance can stake
his money on anything.
Many of the provisions Of the dis
cipline of the Methodist Church were
inserted at a period when they had
full meaning. but their significance has
been lessened by the progress Of the
years. Our theatres are no longer
mere vulgar playhouses. We do not
deem ~ necessary in a game of cards
to stake our money. and among all
respectable people, dancing is as in
nocent as chatting about the weather.

THE COLLECTORS ACCOUNTS

The Attorney General has seized the
books of the city tax collectors The
word Seized" has an unpleasant
sound but that is an unimportant de.
tail. We presume that the collectors
will not be altogether displeased, since
there have been many rumors and un-
founded charges regarding the CON
duct OF these offices. and now, pre-
sumably, we shall get at the facts. II
there has been any evasion Of duty, or
anything worse, we should know it.
If on the other hand these officials
have done their duty, that fact should
be made known in order to stop an
agitation which apparently has little
basis.
We are inclined to think that per-
sonally these officers will be found to
have done their duty and that what
ever fault there may be found can only
be charged TO our system. In all prob
ability we shall learn whether certain
books OF the assessors really were re-
duced to ashes at the crematory. We
have an idea that they will turn up.
Notwithstanding certain sensational
newspaper reports. We understand
that certain books OF the collectors
have been in the hands of members of
Council for a long period. The col
lectors will hardly be inclined to stand
by all items in these, when they have
been so long in the hands of other
parties. We want the exact condition
Of affairs, yet no one must be done an
injustice.

MoElwes cheered the FLAG

II was in the club after the perform
ance of Janice Meredith" in the
Opera House on Tuesday evening. All
had been there and were discussing
how they were carried away with pa
triotism and were forced TO applaud
the sentiments expressed and the ac-
ton of those who portrayed charac-
ters opposed to British rule.
This discussion brought out good
story about James McElwee when he
was on a visit to Europe. On the
steamship were number of English
men who were returning from Amer
| lea. From their talk Mr.. McElwee
gathered that they had been working
here and were going back home to
live. AS Liverpool hove in sight the
Embellishments hearts jumped with JOY
and they started to sing "Brittania

McElwee did not like it. Looking NJ
he saw the Stars and Stripes floating

thrill run through his body and his
hair seemed almost to stand on end

THE SLAYER OF MRS. COLLINS

Word comes from Georgetown that
the half-witted negro who is locked up
IN the Sussex jail, and who is suspect
ed of knowing something of the muir
der of Mrs. Collins. has confessed. He
was subjected to what is known as the
sweating" process, and admitted his
connection with the crime giving nu-
merous particulars. When taken TO the
scene Of the tragedy, however, certain
details of the statement did not tally
with The facts: and the buried money
and clothing he was unable to locate.
il is reported that yesterday he even
denied knowing anything about the
murder
Under these circumstances it will be
well TO hold the negro and to run out
every clue which will substantiate or
disprove his confession. Meanwhile
the detectives should not relax their
vigilance, for no one win be surprised
81 the criminal lis found elsewhere II
frequently happens that under the
Sweating" process weak-minded per-
sons confess to crimes which TREY
never committed, and the conduct of
the negro prisoner gives color to the
theory that he knew nothing about il.
Evidently the people OF Sussex feel
that the guilty party has not yet been
caught. They generally sympathized
with Collins when he was arrested, and
yesterday, by their demeanor, they
showed that they did not believe in the
half-witted negro's guilt. It may not be
possible to do more, but it seems
strange that the arm of justice is
paralyzed before so many heinous
crimes.

Points on Entertaining

A group OF young women the other
day We're discussing the signs of the
times. In their midst was a young
matron whose spinsterhood was
marked by various and signal con
quests. and she was telling the other
girls how to do it, now that she is
safely out OF the running. Deposeth
this bright-eyed oracle:
Now girls, act as if you are glad to
see him. even if you are not Be cor
dial Shake him warmly by the hand
and inquire as to his health, and the
health of his relatives. if he has any.
Act generally as if you are pleased he
came, even though you would have
preferred the other fellow.
Always ask him to be seated. and
at the same time. designate a particu-
lar chair. That looks as if you were
interested in his comfort, and is apt
to tickle his vanity, of which he is
sure to have his share. IL also gives
you your choice of location.
Never forget to smile at his jokes
even if they are not very good and
YOU have heard them dozens of times
before. It also would not be amiss to
cultivate q hearty laugh to deliver in
response to his jests. You may be re-
warded by a satisfaction like unto
that of a big black cat when it is
lstroked the right way.
BE very careful not to gush. Some
lyoung men have a certain amount OF
lbashfulness. and those who haven't
prefer to do the gushing themselves,
An exaggerated amount of attention
lshown a bashful man makes him feel
foolish. and most men are ayerse to
lsuch a foreign sensation. Never yawn
even if you are bored to the point OF
extinction. and always try to be as
lsympathetic as possible. You may be

a sERvANr on rnn rEoPnM

There are certain old-fashioned ideas
yet held by a great many persons re-
garding tho qualifications OF those
who desire public office. They have
not chosen to regard the dictum that
the ofice-holder is the servant of the
public. as a mere meaningless phrase,
meant TO catch the unwary. There
fore. since in the employment Of SER
wants they deem it wise and proper to
inquire into the qualifications of the
applicant they insist on asking the
aspirant for office certain pertinent
questions. If man is desired to
shovel snow. we care little for his
moral qualities; if on the other hand
he is TO be entrusted with the family
plate. we are more careful.
II is natural then, that when one
aspires to the highest office in the gift
of a people there should be an exami-
nation into the record and antecedents
of the aspirant If he is to be entrust-
ed with our most valued possessions,
1t is incumbent on him and his friends
to establish not only clean record
but to show special qualifications tC
perform the duties which the office
entails. These must be of the positive
rather than the negative variety. Sup
pose he comes with the endorsement o.
a large number Of persons, and claiml
as a virtue his bribery of that follow
ing. we should hardly consider that /
sufficient recommendation. Neithe
will it be sufficient for him to main
tain that his merits are equal to thos
Of certain other applicants. Unde
such circumstances he would probabl
find his attention directed to the dool
through which he is expected to pass
Such a situation exists in Delawar

And while this is true, yet he hi
never endeavored TO give any positi'
