rived In Wilmington, Detective Robert
Green suspected him, noting him at
once as a "supicious character" He
Swallowed the man all the time he was
here but while he had no Information
about the crook. he still kept his eye on
him believing that he was planning a
Job OF some sort here. He was seen
down town only at nights. He caught
on to the fact that Detective Green
was shadowing him and left the city
for some place in the eastern part al

Since the crook left here Captain
Green received a description of him
from Sheriff Andrew w. Burgin, NJ

The Board Of Directors has Decided
on a Big Improvement at the En-
trance-Approach to the Sacred
Spot Will be Greatly Beautifed.

At the last meeting OF the directors
of Oakdale Cemetery Company, held
at the lodge at the cemetery. 1t was de-
cided to make some handsome improve
ments to the entrance of the sacred
spot. The improvements Will be made
on plans suggested by Nh. Timothy
Donlon. the efficient superintendent.
whose good taste our people so mighty
appreciate,
The stream which flows along the
front of the cemetery a rev feet from
the fence and is crossed by a wooden
bridge right at the gates, will be turned
at an angle at the southwest corner or
the cemetery and will be made to cross
the driveway Seventy-five leet west of
the gates. 1t will thence flow In an
angle to the rear of the lodge. The
stream will be bridged with d brick Gull
vert with two archways, and the road
a over it will be macadamlZed, max
Ing the structure a permanent one.
The fence enclosing the cemetery Will
be run along the angles of the stream,
throwing a considerable area of the
low, swampy grounds at the entrance
into the cemetery. The juniper trees
and bushes will be cut out of the
swamps, the water, drained off and the
grounds filled in and turfed, so that
there will be green swards on either
side of the entrance.
The improvement will be a very
marked n and work on the scheme
will soon be commenced. BY moving
back the bridge and clearing and filling
in the lamps the entrance will be
much beautified. and the pretty brown
stone lodge will be prominent In the
perspective.
Recently the trees and underground
on the low lane south of the entrance
were cut away, making an avenue,
through which the lodge can be seen
some distance as the cemetery Is ap-
preached.

Line and Southern have or will jointly
purchase the Plant System of rail-
roads, the Coast Line to control the
original portion of the Plant System
known as the Charleston and Savan-
nah railroad, between Charleston and
Savannah, a distance of lis miles, and
the Southern to control what is known
as the Savannah Florida and Western
through Georgia, Alabama
and permeatins the entire state of
Florida. In their mileage table the
Plant System is put down as follows:
Railway lines, 2,140 miles; steamer
lines, 131 miles; Canadian Atlantic
Plant Steamship Line. 1.31s miles.
Total, 1855 miles.
1t is a known fact that the Southern
and Coast Line have been working In
complete harmony for a number of
years, in fact ii has been stated that
the same capital is behind them both
and this proposed deal has been in
contemplation for a number Of years.
Suffice 1t is to say that the directors of
the Atlantic Coast Line were in session
in Baltimore yesterday n perhaps to-
day and 1t is .eported that the officials
OF h Plant system are in session in
New York today and perhaps tomor-
row. That a proposition has been
made and Is now being considered
there Is no doubt by those In a position
to speak.

Coast Line, sailed for Europe last
Thursday and his trips across the
waters always hav more or less spe-
cial significance.

Book PArtea.

The question Of the use Of the family
scat of arms vexes the American very
seriously. Originally all book plates
were heraldic. That was In an age
when people generally could not reat
and when the blazon o3 each family, as
shown on wearing apparel or small be
iongings, was as we'll known and quick
~ distinguished as an autograph OF
photograph today. In the main, it il
safe to advise Americans not to use
coat armor on their book plates. The
uncertainty Of the actual right to arms
and the extreme difficulty of getting a
drawing that one knows Is undeniably
correct in every detail are strong rea'
Sons against its use. Hcraldry is toe
exact science to adnit of liberties,
and it is no small achievement to draw
the GOAT Of arms with absolute correct
ness and yet with artistic feeling.
Tlsaugh it is not very generally prae-
ticed, it is legal to copyright the boot
plate design. At least two plates are 50
protected in this country. This would
seem to leave a door open for those who
wish to secure for themselves a per
sonal distinguishing mark, quasi
heraIdry, for the Eawing nlay be in
heraldic Esvm as well as in any other
Century.

KING PRAISES BOERH.



London, June liking Edward held
a special court at buckingham palace
for the reception Of addresses from the
lord mayor. Sir Joseph G.. Dimsdale
and the corporation and from the Lon
don county council cOngratuating his
majesty on the restoration of peace.
The King took the occasion to express
his sentiments on the subject more
fully than heretofore, and the tactful
recognition which he made Of the ster
ling qualities of the Beers will doubt
less materially aid him in the work of
appeasement in South Africa.
His majesty, surrounded by the
household, received the city dignitaries
In the throneroom and. replying to the
lord mayors address, said;
~ thank you in my own name and
in the queens for your loyal and dut-
full address and the reorganization you
tender us at the close of the war in
South Africa l heartily join in your
expression of thankfulness to the AL
struggle which. while it entailed on
my people at home and beyond the sea
so many sacrifices, borne with admira'
BILE fortitude, has secured a result
which will give increased unity and
strength to my empire. The cordial
and spontaneous exertions in all parts
of my dominions as well as in your
ancient and loyal city have done much
to bring about this happy result,
"You give fitting expression to the
admiration universally felt for the
valor and endurance of the officers and
men who have been engaged in fight
ing their country's battles. They have
been opposed by brave and deter
mined people and had to encounter
uneXampled difficulties. These diff
culties were cheerfully overcome by
steady and persistent effort, and those
who were our opponents will now, ! re-
joice to think become our friends. 1t
is my earnest hope that by mutual CO.
operation and good will the bitter feel
ings of the past may speedily be re-
placed by ties of loyalty and friend
ship. and that an era of peace and
prosperity may be in store for South
Africa"
