Her new play abounds in continuous action and revolves upon a theme for it's axis that is not thread bare nor rusty, namely depicting life in the large department stores of the big cities with a shop girl as the heroine. Just one link in the chain of natural events which binds humanity every particle of scenery which is essential for the proper scenical presentation ot the entier four acts is special and in- cludes some ingenious electrical and also two novel and sensational effects. The management has spared neither money nor brains to make this attrac- ton unquestionably the best in regard to scenic splendor, a cast which may truthfully be called an all star one, elaborately novel in the variety of high class musical numbers and specialties, which gives to the play every element necessary to make a popular success.

Y. M. c. A. SERVICE
Was Largely Attended-Interesting Re-

Was Largely Attended-Interesting Re-
 marks by Yale Man.
 A large crowd attended the services held under the auspices of the local Y. M c. A. yesterday afternoon. The ex- ercises took place on the green and were of special interest. The singing was of an especially inspiring character, and was joined in by many of those in the audience. Rev. Harvey M. Lawson, graduate of Yale in the class of lS90, was the speaker of the afternoon.
 MT. Lawson has been engaged for four years in missionary work in India and his remarks yesterday were along the lines of missionary labor. Many in- teresting and impressive accounts of the work of the missionary were given and the clergyman stated that it was not necessary for workers in the vine- yard of the Lord to go to distant coun- tries to perform missionary work, as the home field afforded great and un- limited opportunities. The work of the foreign missionary was highly com mended as a very necessary part of the work of those who were enjoying the benefits of living in Christian com- munity. Rev. Mir. Lawson earnestly re- ouested all his hearers to constitute themselves home missionaries and to do their part in the dissemination of the blessings of Christ's teachings.
 At the close of the regular service a short after-meeting was held.

OUR TEACHERS.

OUR TEACHERS. There are gentle souls in this world of ! ours That shrink from an angry word; Who would rather submit their cheeks =@ to blow Than to know such words were heard. The sting of unkindness leaves g. snaarting pain, And their souls are dismayed to see How hatred and selfishness rule home
 and a life, Where affection and kindness should
 be. The flowers that grow in the fields and 'a% the wood, Live in sunshine or shade as they
 may, Fulfill the sweet order of budding and
 bloom, Show the beauty of natures true
 way. The birds that fly up from their nests
 at the dawn, Sing their God-given songs sweet and true; Could they carol so joyously all the day long If they lived as we humans do? The trees. the dewdrops, the birds and
 the flowers, Live their lives as God has ordained; It is only the humans who yield to each
 mood,
 And are reckless of hearts that are
 pained. 4-a Let them be our teachers, earth's fair
 soulless things; Though we boast ourselves temples of
 God; Our souls must be pure to find en- trance in heaven When our bodies lie under the sod.

hrary At this election Georgetown
will witness, for the first time, the
woman walking to the poles-shoulder

master man. If the library movement
be successful its success may be at
tributed to the gentler sex, as they have
been the prime movers of the whole
affair.
The political pot in Sussex is barely
lsimmering. Occasionally, in the smoke
arising therefrom, one can define that
faint outline of a candidate The par
ticular time for announcing candidates
lis Tuesdays; the place, Georgetown.
John Rodney Steele, of Frankford, has
come out as a Union Republican can
didate for the office of Register OF
Wills. However. he has not gotten
any farther than "out." There prom
ises to be a bitter fight in the Demo-
cratic ranks over this particular office.
Theodore Polk. the present deputy
Register, thinks he ought to be the nat
ural candidate and is visibly exerting
himself to make others think with
him. There is one. however, who re
fuses to entertain such a thought. This
one argues that a lawyer should have
this office: that is requires a copious
knowledge of the law to couduct the
business of the office. that a lawyer is
the natural candidate. This one is
Woodburn Martin. lawyer.
James H. Wright will very likely be
the nominee of the Republican party
for office of Clerk of the Peace.
There is every indication that there
will be but one Republican county
ticket There will be a compromise
effected suitable to both factions. The
, present county leaders will profit by
the mistakes of those of the last cleo
b tion. The chairmen of both Republi-
b can committees have expressed theiI
desires for one county ticket. Not q
man of either faction has been heard
! to express an opinion which is unfay-
orable to compromise. This was moi
so two years ago. Conditions are not
the same. Signs are favorable for q
s Republican unity and a Republican
. success in county affairs.
4 Cause for alarm in the Democratic
x ranks is much greater. Matt For
Short. who poses as a Salisbury leader
e in this hundred, has announced hi
j candidacy for the Democratic nomina
}, ton of State Senator. Mr.. Short ha
7, a following among the lower classes
e but his candidacy does not set we'll OF
II the better class of Democrats. Tn
II expression has been heard from mem
n bers OF this latter class that if tn
choice were confined to Short and tn
S bitterest Addicksite in camp, the
n would select the latter as the lesser O
: two evils. Such is the Democrat
: latitude in Sussex.
o Next Tuesday the Union Republica
p County Committee meets in George
town, and a week later the Regula,
meet. All Republicans of the count
J. are awaiting with a great deal of ii
rs terest the outcome of these meeting
r. Then the pot will begin to bubble
