marriage license was gone forever.
HELEN went to Oklahoma to grow
up with the country, and Miss Shirey
moved to Denver. That was several
years ago, and the pair became lost
to each other. There was no cores
pondence, but it seems that each cher
ished fond recollection of the DAYS
that had been. There is, however,
little ground to suppose that any one
would have known anything
about it had certain train from the
west got in on time Tuesday after
noon.
Miss Shirey was passenger en-
route from Denver to Cincinnati, where
she is going to visit relatives, and an
unexpected wait in Omaha for three
hours caused her to take a stroll up
town. HELEN now makes his head
quarters here, being employed as n
travelling man for the Rhoades Car

districts of Tobacco, Malanao, and Tivi.

900 and the native constabulary Is out
daily. At Bantayau, six natives were
killed, and three Chinese carried off.
A sick constable at Malanao was cap
tured and his arms and legs were cut
off. 5.t.
The American soldiers report that
they are unable to get any aid from
the natives, not even guides being fur
nished.
In the vicinity of Malolos, the chief
amusement of the Ladrones seems to
be to annoy the land tax deputy. In
the town of Pulilan, the deputy was
fred on half q dozen different times.
At last accounts a vital spot had not
been reached.

PRIEST HAS
BECOME SOCIALIST
Rev. Father Hasgerty Has Left
the Church For This.

Cincinnati, Aug. 23.-Word has been
received here that Rev. Thomas Hag-
gerty, Catholic priest, well known
in Cincinnati, who has been affiliated
with the diocese of Dallas, Texas,
has sent his resignation as priest TO
Bishop Dunno, of Dallas, and has al
so withdrawn from the membership
of the Catholic church. Some years
ago Father Haggerty took up the
study of Socialism, and soon became
one of its most ardent apostles. The
reason assigned for his withdrawal
from the ministry and the communion
of the Catholic church, Father Hng-
gerty states, is the church's stand
against Socialism, and the incompati-
bility of her teachings with the doc
trincs of his economic creed. He will
devote his entire energies to the pro-
pagation of Socialism.

YEAR CLOSES WITH CAPITAL AND
LABOR ENJOYING GREAT PROSPERITY
COMING YEAR PROMISES
TOBE GOOD FOR BUSINESS

Never in the history of Wilmington
has it entered upon a more prosperous
year than will begin tomorrow The
has entered upon a more prosperous
than any heretofore. hut everything
points to the coming one with promise
Iof larger increase than ever before.
No serious strikes has interfered
with the business interests. which
have steadily grown and thrived. de-
spite the wall from other cities that
they were forced to close their plants.
Possibly the largest changes in tho
city during the year have been ac-
complished by the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company, and they will be con-
tnued throughout the coming year
The new shops. the most modern in
the world, win be erected by them, and
by this time next year the barren waste
of marsh land lying north Of Landlith
station will have been transformed into
a miniature city, where the ring OF the
anvil and the buzz of machinery will
be heard This industry win no doubt
cause a building boom in that part Of
the city, as thousands CT men win be
employed at the new works, and nat
urally will want to live near the place
they are employed.
There is hardly a manufacturing
plant in the city that has not under
gone improvements. The Belts Ma
chine Company has added a large ad-
dtion to its immense plant. and has
greatly increased its capital stock. Tho
Hilles and Jones Company has added
an addition. and has also purchased the
old plant OF the Wilmington Malleable
Iron Company. which in turn has de-
cided to erect the largest establish
ment of the kind in the United States.

been made during the year, but it is

TO RUSH WORK ON NEW CHUTE
Structure w u be Different From Old
One and Will Only be
Temporary

The coal chutc OF the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company, which will re-
place the one destroyed by fire on Sun
day night, will be entirely different
from the old one The bridge that
suspended the tracks will be done
away with and no engines will be coal
cd from the main tracks, but siding
will be placed and the new chute will
be built about twenty feet further from
the tracks than the old structure.
II will be entirely different from the
othtC. The new chute will have a
laTge bin at the top of the building
which is TO be known as a ccal wharf.
There will be but one chute from this,
and the engines will be coaled in the
same manner as boats from elevators.
The new track will be cut in at Front
street and run to a point about oppo-
site the roundhouse, where It will be
joined to the main tracks. The build
ing is to be a temporary one to meet
the demands of the company until the
new chute can be built at Todd's Cut,
which it is understood will be shortly.
as the round house is to be the first
building completed and after It is fin
ished the chute will be necessary. The
work on the present chute will be COM
pleted this week and IL will be put into
service on Saturday.

safe to say that there is not a consid-
cradle manufacturing establishment In
this city which has not made an addi-
tion OF some kind during the year
passed.
When the Harlan and Hollingsworth
Company became a branch of the
United States Shipbuilding Company
the yards or the company were ar
once filled with work. and there is
every indication that the local plant
will become the busiest In the list of
those obtained by the new corporation.
Announcement was also made that the
Diamond State Steel Co. had pass
ed into the control of another immense
organization OF capital, and while the
announcement has not been officially
cofrmed, it is generally accepted that
the change will be made. and that the
local company Will soon be one Of the
busiest plants in this section OF the
country.
Many improvements have been made
to the river front during the year,
which is considered one OF the best
moves the city has made. For a long
while the Board ofTradehas been wcrlz-
ing with that end in view. and II now
looks as though their hopes would be
realized during the coming twelve
month.
The financial condition of the vari-
ous departments of the city govern
ment is also a matter OF congratulation.
There is every prospect that it will be
possible TO reduce tn county tax rate
and there is also a possibility that the
city will be able to get in some Of the
outstanding taxes which are ON the
books, and will be table to enter the
new fiscal year without borrowing
money. which will be a new experience
for those in charge Of this branch of the
city government

REMEMBER YOUR
TRUSTY NEWSBOY
Give Him All You Can Spare
When He Calls With
Greetings
he is A FAITHFUL SERVANT

Through Summers Scorchlng Heat
and Winters Chilling Blasts He
Leaves the Papers at Your Door and
Never Complains
Much Is said every year about the
faithfulness OF policemen, fremen and
postmen who are forced to be out in all
kinds OF weather and they deserve the
praise. But there is a small and faith
ful servant who caters to the wants OF
the public, despite the scorching heat
OF summer and the ice and snow OF
winter When the weather Is fine and
a trip outside the city Is the thing de-
sirable, he Is still on hand.
The newsbOy Is this person with
whom the article deals. His calling is
n humble one. but without him life
would hardly be worth living. With
a big bundle Of papers under his arms,
he starts on his rounds every afternoon
six days in every one OF the fifty-two
weeks in the year.
What would the long winter even
irlgs be without him? Without the least
exertion one is enabled to keep in touch
with not only with what ones neigh
bors are doing, but with what Is going
ON in every quarter Of the globe. In
this way he learns of the death or mar
riage of a friend. When the doctor,
lawyer business man or mechanic re-
turns TO his home at night. he knows
the news of the day is awaiting him
there. AS he toasts his shins before the
fire he need not care how the elements
rage outside; he can read his paper In
peace But look how the newsboy had
to struggle through the storm to de-
liver that paper on time
How seldom is It the customer is
missed? Not often. More than half
the time it Is not the fault OF the car
rier
Once a year he carries his New
Years greetings around to his custo-
mers. When he appears on New
Year's Day do not simply thank him
for his gift, but place coin In his
hand. Make It as large as you can af-
ford.
Show him that you appreciate his
services. Make this one day In his lllo
happy one long to be remembered.
