SURPRISE.

According to the best grammarians, means wonder suddenly excited, 10 take unawares, ito astonish. Well, It goes without saying that we received a surprise on December IT, 1901, when we were notified to get out of the store in thirty days, which we have occupied ever since the building was erected; in fact we were in it two months before it was finished. Therefore, when We received the 'skicked out'' notice We certainly did wonder what was up; we positively were taken unawares ana for astonishment, we will leave that for the reader of this ad to decide whether he or she would get into that predicament. But we didn't get even 8 little bit excited; no; we went strsightaway and secured another store right across the street, which Is far superior to the one we were kicked out'' of; moreover, we feel sure that we will receive good treat ment, the kind all tenants who pay their rent should receive. Well, we are not the only pebbles on the beacn 10 receive a surprise. We understand that at least one of the four eylcted tenants is going to give our open hearted landlord quite surprise. We venture to bet S1 100000 against 2- cent, postage stamp that Brother Cut Ter, the harness dealer, will see that our landlord will wear the harness that fits best. Remember, we are selling nice tasting tea, beautiful, sweet butter and fresh roasted coffee at the old stand.

against the death penalty, arguing that
while 1t was wrong for a man to COM
NIT murder 1t was but another wrong
to kill the murderer and that two
wrongs never made right.
"At least" said he. Il never heard Of
but one case where they did" And he
proceeded to relate the following story,
presumably in support Of his argu-
ment:
"a man entered a country grocery,
where a number of the villagers sat
around on barrels and boxes, and ask
cd If two wrongs ever made a right.
The response was Never So I
thought till recently" continued he.
when | met a stranger who asked me
to change 4 five dollar bin for him.
| did so and after his departure found
the bill was a counterfeit. SO l kept
it till the other day and showed 1t on
a fellow greener than l." The listeners
exclaimed that those were two wrongs
certainly, but they didn't make a right.

Decadence In Penmnnship,

"While the people as whole may
write more legibly than they did gen
Grafton ago" said an old writing teach
er, there are not so many really ex-
cellent penmen. The multiplication Of
business colleges has improved the
handwriting of a portion of the public,
while the invention of the typewriter
has made it useless to acquire extra
skill in penmanship. Time was when
the first class penmen commanded high
salaries, but now there is such a slight
demand for good writers that the mar
ket is overstocked. No penman can
compete with a typewriter, and so the
art of superior penmanship is gradual
ly dying out and will soon be LOST

WHERE EDICTS HAVE BEEN ISSUED
AGAINST PRACTICE OF OSCILLATION

Moonlight excursions are faYOrite
diversion of Wilmington folk. No
matter hOw many are given in the
course of the summer every one is
well patronized. They are given by
various organizations, and it is a
rather significant fact that none of the
city churches has ever given one.
Probably this is explainable in the fol-
lowing dispach which comes from the
fair city of Elizabeth i'm neigIhboring
Jersey:
There is trouble in the camp of the
Y. NJ. c. A. here over a recent edict OF
the association prohibiting hugging on
the occasion of the annual moonlight
excursion. which will be held on Fri
day evening of next week.
THE committee having the excursion
in charge held a meeting recently and
appointed twenty men to police the
boat and prevent hugging, for which
these trips have been noted in the
past
Now the young women are up in
arms against the young men, and have
notified the association that if hugging
is prohibited they will not be a part
OF the excursion.
There are many things conducive to
the pleasure OF a moonlight excursion.
The path of silvery sheen upon the
waters. the fresh breezes, lights twink
ling in the distance, seductive strains
of bands or orchestra on board
these alone would have sufficient
power to tempt one to abandon one
self to the pleasures OF the moonlight
However. there ds one thing to be
said in defense of the Wilmington
girls. That is that they are not in
sympathy with the stand of the Eliza
beth girls. which they think too pro-
nounced and quite unseemly. 1t may
be mentioned in this connection,

NEW SPAPER OPINION
College Degrees
Chlcngo Inter-O Ocean.

From the Chicago Inter-Ocean.
Now the season for the distribution
of honorary degrees of scholarship is
upon MS again, and the output OF doc
tors OF law promises to suI-pass all rec
ords the question naturally arises,
what will the average citizen OF the
future do with his LII d.?
II is only reasonable TO suppose that
tho average citizen OF the future will
have this degree, just as the average
citizen Of the present has Panama
hat But what will he do with it?
An La ID. is not anything that tho
average citizen can make use OF in
ms daily life. He cannot borrow any
money on il at the bank. He cannot
put it up when it rains. It will not
give him the time of day. II will not
sharpen a pencil or light a cigar
He cannot use IL in his business, un-
less he happens to be a college profes-
sor or writer on scientific subjects.
It would not do. for example, If he
should have his sign painted, Samuel
Jones. LII. d., Dealer in Creamery But
ter and New-I.aid Eggs" or George
w. Brown, Ill. D., Stock and Bonds"
or "Beniamin r. Smith. LII. d.. Meats,
Sausage and Tripe" It would not do,
tor the title affixed TO his name might
confuse his customers, perhaps alarm
them. and lead them to trade else
where.
Before the general distribution OF
degrees proceeds further, these ques-
tions ought TO be considered and an
swered. The average citizen has per-
plexities enough already. This new
one ought rot to be put upon him, un-
til the learned men who are to put
1t upon him shall stand ready to tell
him what to do with it in his daily
life.
