Resolutions Adopted.

At an ad loarned meeting Of the
Board Of Managers OF the Ferris In
dustrlal School held Thursday even
ing, June 10Th, the following rcsoIu
tions we're adopted On the death Of
our late President, Dr.. Caleb Har-
Ian.
Resolved, That in the death of DR..
Caleb Harlan, the Ferris Industrial
School has sustained great loss.
IT was his hand and thought, that
directed the John Ferris estate into
this institution, and thus made the
school possibility.
As President Of the Board Of Man.
ayers from its organization in 1885,
until his death June l3, 1902, he de.
voted much of hi3 time and care TO
the success Of the school. Its prosper
itv vas one OF his most cherished
wishes and a main purpose in his
life.
In the selection of the School Home
and Farm in the builnngs and equip
mentS for its SUCCESS; in the choice Of
Officers and teachers: in thoughtful
care for the education and training Of
the inmates, he was always an inter-
ested and most active favor.
Indeed to him more than to any
other man, save JOhn Ferris the
founder, oar people are indebted for
this school: one that stands at the
head Of the beneficial institutions q!
the State by common consent,
| We honor him for his lmSclsh de.
votlon to this work: tor the ccaseless
! vigilance and tender care which were
manifested in his life and labors for
the well being Of the boys who have
Geen. and now are sheltered and cdu.
Gated within its walls, many OF whom
have gone out to fill with credit
worthy places in life.
His name will he coupled with that
of John Ferris, to he held in perpct-
ual remembrance for his Invaluable
work in connection with the Ferris
Indus trial School.

More Police are Needed.

Chief of Police Black has been do
ing everything III his power to po-
lice the city but is handicapped by
the lack Of police. The city has
grown to such proportions that i'll
order to police the city the men are
obliged to cover large territories.
Henry &. Banning, president of
the National Bank Of Delaware,
called upon Chief Black to-day in
reference to the police passing his
home, at Broome and Oak streets,
oftener than they do at present. He
would like to have special box
put in there. The police in that
district have miles of streets to walk
both day and night. Chief Black is
badly Handicapped and the matter
of more police must remain in the
background for the present. 1t
will be remembered that the Ban
ming residence was robbed q num-
Der of years ago of valuable silver
ware and other valuables.

BASE BALL II
In a poorly played and nnfnter-
esting game Penn Park defeated
Wilmington A. A. on the south
Side grounds yesterday afternoon
by the score of 8 to g. 1t was the
most lifeless sort of a game that has
been played on the grounds. The
local players fielded poorly and were
unable to hit Guest who was in the
box for Penn Park with any effect.
The visitors played fairly we'll
and hit the ball hard. Finnell,
new man, was given trial by the
Wilmington A. A. but retired at Che
end of the fifth in favorof Hoffman.
Finnell would have made out all
right had he been given good sup
port, but in the five innings he
pitched the visitors scored five runs.
Foreman who relieved him, the
next four innings was touched
for six hits which coupled with
a few errors netted three morer runs.
Barton had another off day and
Stirlith was sent behind the plate.
Stirlith only caught two innings
however, and was succeeded by Au-
Lrey, who caught fine game. Au-
brey can play most any position on
the field, and is always hard work.

Steering by Electricity.

The earl Of Crawford has devised q
means of manipulating vessels rud-
der by means Of electricity from any
part of the ship. A practical demon
stration of the invention was recently
given upon theinventOr's steam yacht
Vslhalla in the Solent before several
representatives of the British and
japanese navies, who were consider
ably impressed with the device. 1t is
stated that the British admiralty pro-
poses to give the invention a thorough
trial upon one fthe battleships. The
most prominent feature of the device
is that it is not so liable to accident as
the steam gear, and it is much easier
to manipulate.-Scientific American.

HE WASN'T THERE YET.

Cash Boy Who Was Afraid of Doing a
Little Too much.
Wherever one may 60, in factory, Of
fee or store, there are always some
employees who, no matteri if they reach
their places Of employment ahead Of
time, in the morning or at noon, make
it a point never to begin work until
the clock strikes, the whistle blows or
the behring's.
Shortly before one o'clock a few
days ago saleswoman in a large dry
goods store in Milwaukee, says the
Sentinel, having made sale, had oc-
casion to call for a cash boy. No one
responded to her summons. Just then
she espied a boy sitting short dis
tance from where she stood.
'Here, boy" said she to the little
fellow, "take this to the counter and
have it done up"
81 amt here yet" replied the
youngster, with the utmost GOODNESS
and unconcern.
AS the woman could not induce the
boy to stir, she was obliged to call for
another.

FOR 10 YEARS
Lord Roberts Waited For the BOer
War.

London, March 27.-At the con-
clusion of a biography of Field
Marshal Lord Roberts, written by
James McLaren Cobban, which has
just been published, the reply Of
Lord Roberts to Lord Lansdowne
when the latter requested him to
take the supreme command against
the Beers is given in the following
words:
"My Lord: For nineteen years
1 have led the abstemious life IN
the hope of this day"
Commenting on this answer, Mr..
Cobban says Lord Roberts foresaw,
after the battle of Majuba Hill, that
the issue must ultimately be fought
between Briton and Boer.

LOOK AFTER THE SENATORS,
Pages in the Upper House of Congress
in Washington.

Pages IN the upper HOUSE OF COugIeSs
in Washington.
The great care that is exercised in
providing for the wants Of senators
was shown the other day when Sen.
ator Tillman, just before the senate
was called to order, clapped his hands
and asked the page, who rushed to bis
side, for a penpoint. He gave no in.
timation, says the Washington Star,
as to the kind of penpoint he was ac.
customed to use. The page quickly
tripped to an unoccupied desk and
ran his eye over a list Of senators on
which was named the kind Of pen each
of them uses. In the same desk were
a dozen boxes of pens Of different
kinds. He selected the kind that is
always used by Mr.. Tillman, and gave
him a supply Of them. Newly elected
senators are frequently surprised at
the way their wants are anticipated
and their comfort is looked after in
scores of ways in the senate chamber,
but after they have occupied a seat
there for a few months they take it all
as a matter of course. The pages be.
come familiar with the individual
tastes of senators in many little mat.
ters. They generally know, if sent
to the stationery room for anything,
just about what will be pleasing, but
in case they should forget the kind of
pen that is wanted complete list of
the senators is ready for them to con-
suit at all times. A senator has to
indicate his preference for any par
ticular kind of stationery supplies but
once, and ever afterward it is given
to him unless he should make a

CURIOUS BANK NOTES.
Collection Exhibited Before institute Oi
London Bankers

london Bankers.
On Aladdin's principle Of giving
new lamps for old, Mr.. Moberly Phil
lips, an associate Of the Institute Of
Bankers, is preparing equivalent in
gold, for old notes which have some
interesting history attached to them.
Mr.. Phillips, says the London Chron-
icle, is the only collector of bank
notes in the country, and probably out
of it, and his collection amounts to
800, more OF less. Some of the more
valuable Of his specimens he exhib-
tied last evening at a meeting Of the
Institute of Bankers in the London
institution. One Of the most interest,"
ing was a note issued by Maj. Gen.
Baden-Powell during the siege Of
Mafeking. It's numbered 766, dated
March, 1900, and printed in green ink
on an obviously primitive machine.
Another, with, if possible, a still more
fascinating history, was a currency
note, with Arabic lettering, printed
by Gen. Gordon when he was besieged
in Khartoum. Of Bank Of England
notes Mr. Phillips has specimens Of
the face value of 81 not unlike in ap-
pearance the Scotch 20-shilling notes
Of the present day.
In time Of emergency, when coin
wnH scarce, paper money of as low a
valne as IS. was issued by traders.
But there has been a lower depth even
than this, cards and paper tickets hav-
ing been resorted to in some places
fer as small a sum as Is. Another in
terssting special issue, shown by Mr.
Phillips, was that Of the Birmingham
workhouse. These notes were cir
culstsd by the overseers for various
small amounts, "for the convenience
Of paying the poor" and payment
was made when eight Is. Cd. or fom
IS. notes were brought together. In
one corner Of one Of these notes is a
picture Of Charity nursing young
children. As showing the length Of
time during which notes may remain
in currency, Mr.. Phillips mentioned
that he had a Scotch note for 912,
dated 1871, and the bank which is
sued it offered to change it for him,
Being a collector, Mr.. Phillips pre-
/ terred to keep his ancient bit Of pa
per.
In the matter Of diminutive bank
notes a correspondent sends an ac-
count of a curious note, which he has
! in his possession. 1t is a card meas
uring 2 by p inches, on one side O.
which is twice printed the word "two
pence" while on the other side tn
sum is printed in words and figure
around the border. In the middle il
