HARSH COMMENT
BRITISH PRESS AROUSED BY THE
SPEECH OF THE GERMAN
{si CHANCELLOR.
GENERAL PUBLIC ANGERED

Bitter Attack on Chamberlain Causes
Intense and Widespreao Irritation
and Has Greatly Increased the Bit
terness Of the AngIo-Gerran Dis
cord-Emperor William Criticised
for Allowing Such Remarks.
London, Jan 10.-The singing re-
Duke administered to Mr.. Chamberlain,
the British colonial secretary, by
Chancellor Won Buelow in the reich
stag in Berlin, for the references in Mr..
Chamberlain's speech at Edinburgh,
Oct. rs last to the conduct of the Ger.
man army in the war with France,
1901, has caused intense and wide
spread irritation here and has marked
ly increased the bitterness of the
Anglo-German discord.
The St. James Gazette, which cells
Count Won Buelow staggering
pharisee," says: .-
His offensive speech has brought
the growing irritation between ( the
two countries into dangerous sphere.
and the kaiser's telegram of six years
ago was not more disastrous to mutual
good relations that the studied affront
to British statesman, who is trusted
by the country. and through him, on
the country itself. Our attitude OF
easy tolerance is no longer compatible
with our dignity as nation. Even if
Won BueloW had been the head of a
republican ministry dependent for it's
life on tickle popular opinion there
would have been little excuse for his
gross perversion of facts and breach
of international comfy"
"VOn BuelOw's words cannot fail to
be hailed throughout Europe as snub
to Great Britain. says The Pail Mall
Gazette in an editorial headed, THE
Retort Discourteous. The editorial
expresses regret that the chancellor,
in his anxiety not to be suspected of
being friend Of England, has chosen
to stimulate rather than to soothe the
anti-British spirit.
The Globe accuses Won Buelow of
deliberately pandering to the lowest
and most ilI-infOTmed elements Of pub
lie opinion in Germany" adding: 1T
is uncomfortable that the chancellor
spoke thus without the approval OF the
kaiecr.' =

Site For Military Camp.

There is little doubt that the National
Guard of Delaware, ut it's encampmcnt
in September, will occupy the camp
ground at Middletown, which was occu-
pied by the regiment when it was being
trained for the Spanish wa.
There are many of the members of the
Guard who would much prefer to go to
Rehoboth, but it is claimed that the
camp is to be school for the soldier.
The Middletown site is well drained ana
there is an excellent place for Il rifle
range. The men of the Guard will be
pleased to secure any kind of an encamp-
ment, however, for it has been several
years since one was held. ........

HEAVY SEA AND TIDE.
Glover From Accomplishing 80
Mile Swim-He Swan 20 Mil.S-Will
Try Again

On Wednesday. William j. Glover. .Ir..
again undertook to swim from Poole ;
Island. ut the head of the Chesapeake
Bay. just below Turkey Point. to River
view Park. Baltimore. distance of
thirty miles. After being in the water
nine hours and forty minutes. he was
compelled to abandon his swim. Glover
entered the water abreast of l'oolc'S Is
land at 10 o'clock. II. IN. He had planned
to start ut ! o'clock. but owing to the
heavy sea and the condition of the
weather he waited until six hours Latter.
When 10 o'clock arrived. however.
Glover jumped into the waters OF the
Chesapeake and began to swim for hi.
gonl-Rivervicw Park. on the patHpSco.
The wind was blowing from the north
west and continual waves dashed over
the swimmers head. The skyline in tit"
distance revealed signs of unfavorahe
weather and the party who accompanied
Glover were afraid that Il squat would
overtakc them. Two hours after entering
the water. Glover encountered an chh-
tide. which had but little effect on his
progress.
At O'Clock in the afternoon Il brisk
breeze from the northeast struck up and
the members of the party calculated its
velocity not less than 10 knots an hour.
In this wind. however. Glover showed
no signs of fatigue and fought nohly
against both sea and wind. About II
o'clock. noon. Glover was headed by the
ebb tide. which lasted for about I hours.
Many times Glover found the sea bois-
ferrous and only an experienced swimmer
could master the waves.
When Glover left the water he said he
did not feel the effects of the swim. and
the only way to tell that he had been in
the water such Il length of time was his
Shriveled hands and sunburnt face and
shoulders. Several times he ate food
handed to HIM from the small boat in
which his father was rowing.
The distance swan by Glover was
about twenty miles.

number of good features. Frey. Allen and
Evans, in their sketch, "A Single Lesson,
showing a teacher of singing at work with
two men. one with a hare-lip and the other
totally deaf, are really funny. The act
closes with good singing by the trio. The
Walker Sisters have a clever act in which
singing and dancing predominate. VIII
have a good interior setting and little
dialogue is used. Richard Craig and WAL
ter Ardell have musical act. The musical
part is practically lost liz the frequent at

mated the act would go better. Mr.. and
Mrs. Harper, colored, open the olio with
Woodworking act in which negro songs and
buck dancing are the features. In the bur
lesques are big chorus, which sings well,
and several comedians that are funny.
