dicate that there is considerable liFeli-
hood of a revolution there as direct re-
suit of the Panama canal proposition
made by this Government. 1t is reported
that if the Columbian Congress fails to
promptly ratfy the treaty the states of
Panama and Cauca, both of which are on
the isthmus, will secede from the main
country. While it is probable that such
secession would be resisted to some ex-
tent, it is doubtful if the resistance would
be succe> sful. The northern portion of
the Andes practically cuts off all COM
municatiou between these two states and
the rest of the country by land and the
Colombian Government has no navy.
Moreover the Government is bankrupt
and could hardly raise the funds with
which to carry on a war. The two states
named would make a country larger than

WASHINGTON LETTER.

What the French call "bad quarter
of an hour" awaits the President to-day.
He has promised to entertain the nat
ional committee of the B'nai Birth, the
greatest J Jewish organization in the world.
and listen to their protests against the
treatment of their fellow couutrymen at
KisLenev. That his interview with the
prominent Hebrews who will call on
him will be embarrassing, the President
fully appreciates. He has consulted
Secretary Hay and Count Cassini the
Russian Ambassador, and he is unable
to find grounds which, from a diplomatic
standpoint, will warrant anything in the
nature Of protest to Russia, and vet his
entire are with the Jews, and
if he could he would gladly comply with
their wishes and express to Russia the
horror with which he has learned of the
Kishenev atrocities. Mr.. Roosevelt also
appreciates that aside from the diplo.
matte aspect of the situation this country,
at least to some extent lives in glass
house. Our own record is not without a
blot. Only recently a colored man was
burned and shot in a Western state, and
lynchings, riOtings and dynamitings
within the past year have been numerous.
The federal government does all IN its
power to correct these abuses but can
not prevent them, and that is the pro-
fessiou of Russia, so that whether we be-
lieve in Russia s sincerity or not, we can
hardly affront her by an expression of
open iucredulity.
Another delicate situation has been
precipitated by the recent Servian revo-
luton, accompanied as it was by the as
sassination Of the King and Queen and
many of the subjects who remained loyal
to them. Regardle ess Of the merits of
the case, it is impossible not to be hor-
rified at the frightful violence of the rev.
olutionists, and yet there is no diplomatic
warrant for an expression of sympathy
or regret, especially as such would be
Immediately construed as an insult to
the new ruler. Under the circumstances,
President Roosevelt will refrain from an
expression on the subject, as will doubt
less the representatives of many other
nations.

graduate work is done. It has its
professional schools-law, medi-
cine, divinity, dentistry and the
like. 1t requires great buildings
and equipment, and a large en-
dowment. Delaware cannot hope
to approach any such standard.
Should someone make the college
a gift of $40, ,ooo,o 900 a start might
be made, but a modern university
cannot consider anything less than
millions.
Of course, there isn't anything
to prevent the calling of Delaware
a university, and it is also possible
to teach a smattering of those
branches which enter into a uni
versity course, but it would mean
that students would have to COM
plete their course elsewhere, and
with little or no credit for any
work already accomplished. 1t is
for us to have a real
university, but we may have a real
college, and that is something be-
coming sufficiently rare to be ap-
preCiated.

School Election.

The regular school election is
fast approaching and since 1t is
but one week off from Saturday we
think the time opportune to call
the attention of the people to some
of the issues that are involved in
the said election in order that the
people may be better informed and
able to vote more intelligently. In
the first place there are four mem
bers of the board to be elected two
members for North and two for
South Milford; and it must be re-
membered, that the attitude Of the
new members elected will deter
mine largely the extent of public
education for this town and COM
munity, as their votes in the board
will decide the site for the edifce
to be erected. A disagreement
in the location of the building may
possibly be directly opposed to
such a move on any site. In con
sideration of the above named facts
it behooves every citizen to see
that the men nominated for mem
bers of the board are in favor of
site which will be for the best in
terest of all, as he may see it.
There are but two plauseable sites;
the one known as the Classical
Academy, and the place where the
North Milford school now stands. |

Murder of Miss Bishop.

The crime committed in the as
sault upon and muIder of Miss
Helen Bishop in this city, is not
only horrible as an act of iendish
cruelty, of beastly passion, but
horrible as a violation of law
Happily such occurrences are in
frequent; but as infrequent as they
arethey indicate a degree of danger
great enough to cause a general
fear for the safety of the women
and girls who are compelled to
walk streets and roads alone. And
while it is the function of the law
TO protect these people, and while
it does that in a very large sense,
here is an incident that clearly
proves the inability of the law to
always successfully defend them.
In such caseses the law must
avenge the injured, and repair its
impaired authority by punishing-
to the fullest extent-the fiends
who commit such awful deeds. 1t
is just here that the severest test
of the law-abiding spirit of the peo-
pie is made. Every manly man
feels a keen sense of outrage in the
knowledge of the commission of
such deeds, and instantly feels
burning desire to avenge the in
jured; but the law commands these,
even as it does the 6endish assail-
ants and murders of women and
girls, to obedience-to the exercise
of patience in waiting upon what
seems to be the slow movements of
the law in bringing culprits to
justice. 1t is this quality in and
among the people that assured
order, safety and peace. 1t is
obligatory, therefore ,thatthe officers
of the law will speedily find Miss
Bishops assailant, and that justice
may be meted out to him, in full,
as the law allows. Wilmington

College or University.

To-day at old Delaware twenty
two young men will step to the
platform and receive their diplomas
This is a large class when COM
pared with those usually graduated
at this institution, and it is an
evidence of the progress of the
college. The question of the proper
scope of work to be carried for
ward at the institution was raised
by one of the trustees at a meeting
yesterday, who, among other things,
declared that the institution must
approach the university standard
rather than cling to the small col
iege idea. This raises a question
requiring some discussion. The
dividing line between the colleges
and the universities is being sharp
ly drawn in this country, ond the
make believe university finds itself
at a great disadvantage. In many
of the smaller colleges we find a
tendency to recognize the limita-
tions imposed and to attempt only
college work, but to make efficient
and thorough.

is an institution where only post

For a New School Building.

The following is a brief sum
minary of the situation as to a AeW
school building in Milford.
lst-The Classical Academy site. The
lot in the rear of the Classical Academy
owned by Mrs. Ruth Carlisle, will cost
$4,000, the residence of Mrs. James Ham,
mond will cost $1,000, the strip of land
owned by Edward Atkins $500 For
filling in and grading, $1,000; for cellar,
$1,000; for the Classical Academy build
ing and lot, $1,000. Thus the primary
cost of this site is $500, before thework
of building is bugun.
2nd.-The North Milford school site
For the Baptist Church, $1,000; for the
building in the rear of the church,
owned by George Davis, $500. Thus
the primary cost of this site is $500;
making a difference of $4,000 in the pTi-
mary cost of the two sites in favor Of
the latter; and in addition to this, the
North Milford school site would have.
to begin with, the benefit Of the build
ing that stands there, which is all brick
and has a seating capacity of at least
200 pupils. This building can be util-
lied to good advantage, and would de-
crease the cost of the new structure at
least One-third-that is if the building
is to cost $4,000 BY using the pres
ent building, the cost would only be
$1,000, thus in the securing of the site
and the utilizing of the old school. the
Board of Education would save ST., 900.
which would mean a great deal to the
district.
As to the location being more CEN
tral, refutation is offered from the fol-
lowing facts: From Geo. HalPs corner
to the Classical Academy, is Of suffi
cient distance to reach. the Office of DR..
James P. Lofiand, making the differ.
ence in favor of the former just about
One-eighth of a mile; the latter being
more preferable because of the fact that
the scholars can walk nearly the entire
distance under awnings.
l have disclosed the above article
for the intelligent consideration of the
public, and leave it with them to Judge
for themselves whether or not one is
extravaganza and the other practical
economy. a SCHOOL PATRON.

OYSTER CULTURE.

B1valves Are Planted. Cultivated
md Harvested Like other Crops.
The average citizen may not know
that oysters are planted, cultivated and
harvested like any other crop, a per-
son who a in this industry be-
ing known as an oyster planter. Thou
sands of acres of oysters are under
cultivation in Hampton Roads. which
Curing the harvesting season is often
literally alive with the reaping ma
chimes of the oyster men
When the oysters are from n and
a half to two years old they are usu-
ally large enough to be sold, and as a
! rule part Of them are sold at this age
and the balance in the third or fourth
year. after which time the ground Is
allowed to rest a year before being
planted again. Great care must be ex-
ercised in the selection of bottoms for
oyster planting If the planter would
be financially successful.
The largest packer in Hampton opens
from 100000 to 100000 bushels of Oys-
ters in a year. In this house as the
men open the oysters they drop the
shells on an inclined plane, from which
they slide into a trough and are carried
along by scrapers attached to an end
less chain. called a "shell cOnveyOr,"
which takes them without further la
Dor to the shell pile in the yard. When
q shucker has filed his gallon measure
he carries it to the strainer, where the
oysters are strained and measured.
They are then emptied into large casks
kept full of fresh water, by means of
which any loose shell or grit is washed
out. From these casks the oysters are
dipped into a second strainer and when
separated from the water are again
measured and packed.
The shells are sold for from l to )
cents a bushel and are used extensive
" by oyster planters for the propaga-
ton Of oysters. They arc placed in
small piles on grounds found suitable
for the purpose. where the spat or
small oyster will attach itself to the
shells. They are also used for making
shell lime and for building the excel
lent shell roads found in some parts of

at least $4,000 men AMI 1000 teams
for the wheat harvas-.. His esti-
mates are made from reports received
from every township in the state.
There are no idle men in Kansas. so it
will be necessary to import harvest
hands from the neighboring states.
There is a great scarcity of horses and
mules in the state. This is caused by
the fact that during the Boer war
thousands of Kansas animals were
purchased by the British and taken to

fraud is n o perpetrated by selling
these mixtures as Atwood fabrics,
which is practically the law governing

of the bill Secretary Martin of the as
sociation says: There are several
classes of shoddy. The worst. which
constitutes the greater part used in
America, is from the rotten, castoff
rags of beggars and tie lazar and pest
houses of Europe, having in them all
kinds and amounts of filth and dis
ease. These are gathered by ragpick-
ers from the slums and alleys and sent
to America by the shiploads, where
they are purchased by a certain class
of manufacturers, who, in order to
take the curse off the name, term the
stuff REUSED wool fibre" To en-.
courage such a fraud is simply putting
the lousy rags of European paupers in
competition with the sheep and wool
growers of America, and rohbing the
American people who wear wooden
garments by selling them the stuff I'M
der a misrepresentation. The total
production of wool in the United States
in the year 1900 amounted to 300, 0OO,-
900 pounds in the grease. equal to
about 107. 000, 900 pounds when secured
and ready for the manufacturer. The
shoddy used during that year amount
ed to $4,000, 900 pounds, and as each
pound of shoddy represents, in the
mill, three pounds of unsecured wool,
it will readily be seen that it took the
place of 222. 600, 900 pounds of Ameri-
can wool, or y per cent. of all the wool
grown in the United States during that
year. In other words, it took the
place of the wool from AZ, 1892, 900 of
the 61,415,0 900 head of sheep which are
owned in these United States"

TOLD IN A DREAM.
The Message That a Dying Girl Con-
veyed to Her Brother.

Here is an interesting, if somewhat
a correspondent upon whose good faith
we can rely: \ certain young lady,
whom we will call Mary A, was re-
covering from illness. The doctor had
declared her to be out of danger, and
her friends and relatives were rejOic-
Ing in the fact. Nevertheless, Miss A.,
receiving a visit n day from a sister,
gravely assured her that she was going
to die. The sister poohpoohed the idea
and treated it as an invalid's fancy.
Miss A., however, with the utmost
calmness, repeated her statement. She
was certain that she would die that
night and begged her sister to fetch her
parents and other relatives to say good
by. Thinking to humor her, the sister
complied. One person was absent from
this strange family gatherings broth
er, who vas at sea and was expected
home in a week or two. But it does
not matter" Miss A. quietly observed.
II saw him last night in a dream and
said goodby to him in his cabin" Be-
fore the sun rose again Miss AS pre-
diction had come true; she was dead.
That, however, is not the strangest
part Of this weird story. When in due
time the sailor brother reached port he
was met by his other sister who be-
gan to tell him the sad news. "Ah,"
he interrupted, you need not tell me!
Mary is dead. l knew 1t, for she came
to me m night in my dreams and told
me she was going to die and wanted to
say gOodby." On comparing dates 1t
was found that THE dreams were
dreamed on the selfsame night.-L0n-
