THAT STREET PAVING BILL

There is bill before the Legislature
allowing the city to borrow $24O 900
for street paving. The streets TO be i'm
proved are named in the bill. No one
familiar with the streets In the outly-
ing portions of the city will question
that a great deal of paving is impera-
uve,and all must admit that the extern
sion and improvement OF certain parts
are halted because the matter of nav
ing has been neglected. 1t is also GER
tain that with the improvements which
are contemplated, there would be a
large number of dwellings, erected Cor
the accommodation of the people, and
that the taxes the properties would
pay would soon wipe out the Indebted
ness incurred.
But there are several serious dbjec-
tons as the bill stands. The par
ticular streets to be improved are des-
ignated, as wei as the kind of paving
10 be used in all instances. This de-
prives us Of the benefit OF the judg-
ment Of the Street and Sewer Commits
sioners and replaces them by the Leg
islature. II is conceivable that i'm
proyements on certain OF these streets
can wait. and that on others the work
should be begun at once; that on GER
tain ones a more expensive and dura-
bic paving is required than on others,
and that the right to regulate the mat
ter should be left to competent persons,
allowing them TO exercise their judg-
ment as the work proceeds. 1t strikes
us that the general public will feel that
many of our streets need paving. but
that the Street and Sewer Commission
should be given charge OF the matter,

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE,
Effect Of Election.

To the Editor Of the Evening Journal.
The daily papers all fail to grasp the
real effect Of the election of last Mon
day. Even the Evening Journal has
not caught on fully to the fact that the
election of Ball and Alice means the
defeat Of Addicks
1t Is humiliating to Addicks and
something he will not reSover from
very soon. that, despite all Of his
threats and statements that Delaware
would never have senator until it ac-
cepted him. that II would be "Addicks
or nobody" Notwithstanding all of
these and all OF Addicks money we
have succeeded in getting his clutch
from our throat and hurting him to
one side, have shown that he could not
be named, and that his assertions were
as false as his present statements that
he is satisfied

been lifted temporarily from the
minds OF all true Delawareans. The
highwayman has had his hands on our

We have worked to accomplish that
end for years. He is a discredited
prophet. lie is a whipped politician
The man who has been beaten once
can be beaten again. Read over his
statements since last Monday; con-
slider his actions while at Washington
attending the wedding feast OF the
man who occupies the seat he said
would never be occupied. and tell me
II the Regular Republican members of
this Legislature have not beaten Ad-
dicks?

with interest. We have chance to

A special meeting Of the Epidemic

THE TRAINED NURSE

1t is announced that the daughter of
Governor Pennypacker is abouttograd-
uate as a trained nurse from one of
the Philadelphia institutions. We are
not told whether she proposes to fol-
low her profession, but it shows what
feature OF our educational system
this training OF professional nurses is
becoming. Many marry, and the ben
eft OF their knowledge goes to the
family; others act the part OF minis
tering angels to the afflicted in the
hospitals and the home II has grown
10 be familiar saying that in cases
OF serious illness, half OF the cure lies
in the nurse and physicians have
grown to regard the clear-headed
woman at the bedside as a colleague
and helper
And yet twenty-five years ago the
professional nurse was almost un-
known. The idea was American, and
We have extended the courses of study
until we have more nurses and more
efficient ones than adj the rest of the
world put together. Not many years
ago the professional nurse in a family
was a sign Of wealth; today she is re-
garded as a necessity. In the absence
OF the doctor, and in many minor de-
tails, she is the doctor She gathers
up The loose ends which he in his busy
career has overlooked. Her sympathy
is profound, yet professional, and does
not admit OF that laxlty OF strict rules
which the patient expects from friends
and kindred Every home she enters
she leaves behind rules of sanitation
and health. and she has done more to
relieve human ills and to teach proper
habits Of life than amy other agency in
the recent world OF medical science.

NEW BOUNDARY EVIDENCE

American Omcers Unearth Old Monu-
ments Marking Alaska Line.
New evidence In the Alaskan bound
ary dispute, which the state depart
ment at Washington has been guarding
with great secrecy for nearly a year, is
being put in shape to be presented to
the tribunal, which win meet in Lon
don this summer, says the New York
World.
Two army and navy officers who
were ostensibly sent 70 Alaska last
summer ON a routine survey assign
ment were really sent there to search
for old marks of the Russian English
boundary. Their search was more sue
cessful than Secretary Hay had hoped
for. They unearthed several mounds
and remains Of monuments which mark
ed the boundary of the territory when
It was ceded to this country and which
sustain the United States contention.
The experts from Philadelphia were
sent to st. Petersburg and eastern ST.
beria TO hunt for old maps and CORE
spondence bearing on the case. After
months of searching they secured maps
and documentary evidence which, it is
said, completely disprove the Canadian
claim as to the location Of the bound
ary.
The accumulation Of this vital evil
dence has just been completed, and
John w. Foster, former secretary Of
state, who is preparlng the case for the
United States, is working to have It
compiled in the form of brief by the
1st of July.

SAILORS FROM
MANY LANDS

Shipping Commissioner B. Griggs
Holt has recently completed his first
annual report to the Department of
Commerce and it gives a striking idea
of the cosmopolitan character of the
vessels and the sailors coming to Ho-
nolulu every year.
The report states that there has been
an increase in the tonnage arriving at
this port but a falling off in the num-
Der of sailors. This is undoubtedly due
to the number of steamers which have
supplanted the sailing vessels to great
extent The report ends with June 80,
and in the period covered by it the
Commissioner has shipped 1857 sailors
on various vessels. Sailors from the
following countries have visited the
port during the last year. Martinique,
Ceylon, Tasmania, Siam Singapore,
Prussia, Finland, Denmark, Greece,
Malta, Brazil Belgium, Holland, Chilli,
Columbia, Ecuador. South Sea Islands,
MEXICO, AUS NiNehI ~ -
ain, France, Russia, Iceland. Cape
Verde Islands, St. Helene, Alaska, Nor
way, Sweden, Spain. Portugal, Italy,
Japan, Philippine Islands, Austria, Gu
ba and AT Sea-
The largest number of sailors are
from the United States. This included
Hawaiians, many of whom have ship
ped on the Hawaiian steam
ers.
One of the strangest facts in the re-
port is the statement that no Chinese
have shipped on any of the vessels in
the past year. There have been num-
bers of Chinese on vessels coming here
but they have shipped at other ports
and do not leave the vessel at Homo
lulu.
