cr race held here yesterday in cOnnec-
ton with the regatta. The Cicrly is
owned by Cecil Quentin of England

the Ciccly under her lee. The first leg
was Il twelve mile beat to windward.
The Ciccly was quicker in stays than

The second leg was an easy seven
mile reach on the port tack. The Nc

and rounded the mark two minutes
and twenty-five sccontis ahead of the
Fife boat
The whole race was Il duel between
these two yachts, the other boats trail
ing from three to four minutes behind
them. On the long run home the Me-
tcor steadily increased her lead. All
the yachts used their spinnakers over
part of the course.
When Emperor William was not
steering the Meteor, he spent most OF
his time leaning against the after com
panion hatch. He wore blue yacht,
ing suit and white cap. The Kiel re-
gatta is the only occasion in the year
when Emperor William is seen in pub.

FROM
NEW CASTLE.

New Cgstle, June 20. The west
ern section of the city was thrown
into a fit Of excitement yesterday
when the roof of the residence of
John Reynolds was discovered on
fire. Carpenters had been at work
putting u new roof on the dwelling
The cause of the fire is mystery.
The Lenape Steam Fire Engine and
Hook and Ladder Company respond
ed but bucket brigade had extin-
grlished the flames. The loss is es-
timated at 5000 covered by insurance
in the Home Fire Insurance Com
pany.
J Rev. j. H. Webb has completed

The action of the Board of Health
in enforcing the health ordinances
has been favoraDly commented up
on as for the past few years owners
of lots paid no heed to the woods of
weeds that grew on their property.
A prominent woman lodged com
plant few days ago about a gut
rer on the opposite side of the street
where she lived. She was surprised
upon returning home that the gut
ter at the back of her own lot was
ten times worse than the one in
front of her door. If everyone
would only join the Board in its ef-
forts for cleanliness New Castle
would be the cleanest city in the
state.
Eliza jackson, colored, who was
highly respected, died yesterday.
For many years she was cook in
prominent families in New Castle.
She was about 50 years of age.
When Prof. Richardson visits the
schools daily the assistant princi-
pal is accountable for the discipline.
That is the reason that Miss Race is
opposed by members of the Board.
As a disciplina1ian Miss Race is not
up to the requirements in their
opinion. The principal should not
lie blamed for the acts of the assis-
tant when he is absent. Let each
one bear their own share of the
blame. Professor Richardson is a
scholar, gentleman and is one of
the best teachers that the New Cas-
tie schools had the good luck to Sc
cure. The principals who did not
suit the people here went elsewhere
and soon reached the top of the lad
der. Miss Race can either 90 or
stay hut the principal should not be
blamed by pettlcoat coterie.

WEST CHESTER
SOCIABlLITY.

The warden at West Chester Jail
is as accommodating as the warden at
the New Castle County work house.
He refused to allow Mrs Ferguson to
see Archer yesterday.
Mrs. william Ferguson believes he
is the man who so brutally assaulted
her near Kentmere few weeks ago.
Detective Francis and Chief of Police
Black, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs.
Ferguson, drove to West Chester yes.
terday to have Mrs. Ferguson look at
Archer. He Is under arrest there for
assaultipg Mrs. Wanner in field, she
still being in critical condition. He
also is wanted b. the authorities here
to answer a charge Of assaulting Mrs.
Emma Cox ut Newport, on September

Chief Of Police Jeiferis was not in
West Chester when the Wilmington
party arrived, and Detective Francis
obtained permit from one OF the
jail commissioners TO see Archer.
When Detective Francis and the par
tv went to the jail, however, they
were treated disc0urteously there by
the unobliging warden.
lie steadrastly refused to honor
the permit, saying that he would per
nit no body to see Archer until after
he had hearing. When told of the
distance that Mrs. Ferguson had
driven, and the enormity OF the crime
Of which Archer was suspected, the
warden still remained obduratc
Finally, y,however.he permitted Mrs.
Ferguson to peer through u narrow
opening in u grated door and down a
corridor at Archer. This was not an
advantageous way of looking at the
prisoner, but from the glimpse she
obtained, Mrs. Ferguson said in gen.
eral appearance Archer resembled
the man who attacked her. Withou t
being shown any further courtesy in
the matter, the party returned to this
city. .., ..
Chief Jefferis of West Chester and
other residents of West Chester who
heard of the treatment OF the Will
ming ton officials wele indignant.
M RS. Ferguson and her son will re-
tur n TO West Chester when Archer is

Most of the blast furnaces that were

coal have resuHlcd with coke of which

The Democrats Of Pennsylvania
have nominated Robert E. PattisOn

The Democrats of Pennsylvania
have nominated Robert E. Pattison
for Governor. This is the third
time he has been nominated for
this Office. Twice he was elected
owing to detection in the Republi-
can party. This year he has q can
didate to run against of whom no
harm can be said. Judge Penny
packer deserves the vote Of every
Republican in Pennsylvania. His
record on the bench has been spot
less, and he is in every way fitted
for the position of Governor. Even
the Evening Journal has good
word to say for him. Read what it
says:
For the third time the Demo-
Gratis of Pennsylvania have nomina-
mated Robert E. Pattison for Cover
nor. Twice he has been elected,
owing to dissensions in Republican
ranks. This time, however, he is
not 80 certain of success, since the
Republicans have named man
equal to him in character, and his
superior in ability and learning. In
either, Pennsylvania would find an
honest, clean man, but Pattison has
shown weakness in trucking to
Populism which has not satisfied his
friends. Itlooks like Pennypacker's
election by something over 100, 0cO
majority"
