Senator Culbertson, who was to have

Senator Charles A. Culbertson,
Democrat, of Dallas, Texas, has dis
appointed three out of four Demo-
cratic audiences in Indiana. He had
four engagements and filled one-at
Evansville.
The Evansville meeting, October
20, was well attended, and gilbert
son was well advertised for a meet
ing at Vincennes the next night. He
missed the meeting, telegraphed his
regrets to Michael F.Ryan, the chair
man of the State speakers bureau.
The advertisement of the meeting at
Fl. Wayne, night before last, was
continued, for the senator did not in
mate that he would not be there till
the last minute. A large crowd was
disappointed.
In telegraphing that he had failed
to get to Fl. Wayne, Culbertson told
Ryan he would reach indianapolis
sure. Nothing further was heard
form him.
~ have no idea where Culbertson
is.' said Ryan. "I have not heard
from him. l think he went to ST.
Louis after the meeting at Evans
vile and | have not heard from him
since he said he was sorry he could
not be at IT. Wayne"

HERBERT STONE
Tells Good Story on Space
Writer.

Herbert f. Stone, the we'll known
publisher. described at a dinner in
Washington the amusing methods of
z newspaper writer who used to be
one of his friends.
Mr.. Stone said that this young
man wrote "specials articles for
the press. not of news nature, for
which he was paid at set rate per
column. VIZ .s. !,
He was once commissioned to do a
serial story for Chicago paper.
The story, as it proceeded from week
to week, was interesting, but it con-
tanned many passages like the fol-
lowing:
| "Did you hear him?''
II did,
I "Truly?' a."
"Truly.'
"Where?''
"By the well' @
"When?"
"Today.'' -
"Then he lives?' :
"He does.' ..aas
"Ah.' -.=~.
The editor, who was handling the
story perceived that the writer, in
stringing out his passages so need
lessly, was making more money per
column that he considered right. Ac-
cordingly, sending for the man, he
said: ~
Hereafter, John, we will pay you
by the letters in your serial. We will
pay you so much per thousand let
ters.' g.. ".t
"But l prefer to be paid by the
column the young man objected.
''No matter for that. From now
or by letter, and not by column, your
copy will be measured up ans.
The young man, looking crestfallen
went away; but in the very next in
stallment of his story he introduced
a character who suffered. and ell
through the chapter We're scattered
passages like this:
"B-b-believe me- s-s-sir, I am
n-n-not g-g-guilty. M-m-my m-m-m-
mother c-e-committed this c-c-crime.
"Your mother, girl?"
M-m-m-m-my m-m-m-mother.
The editor was Mortified at this
stammering chapter. He forsaw the
introduction of the stammerinc girl
throughout the rest of the serial. and
he perceived that, in a work paid
for by the letter, all those stammer-
ings would count up amazingly.
He liked the story, and his rate
Tor such matter was not, at best.
high. So he sent for the young man
again, and payment on the old col
umn basis was resumed Thereupon
Tie girl with the stutter died. and
the short terse paragraphs all came
back again.

HALLOWEEN.

tDy joel Benton
On this haunted, eery night
Baneful spirits bring us fright;
Kobold, pixy, elf and fay
Revel in their lawless play.
In the field and garden rise
ASPIRATIONS of surprise;
Tricks there are with fax and yarn
In the kitchen and the barn.
Chestnuts put upon the fire
Tell each lovers fond desire;
And fresh apples set af1oat
In bowl love's choice denote.
Dear this night is to the boys
And girls, who make no end of noise.
And play fond games of nectared
That have their climax in kiss.
Let the moon be full or new,
Nothing is too rude to do;
Signs are mixed, and dooryard gates
Go where mischief perpetrates.
It's ridiculous DEGREES:
Nc one feels this night at ease,
And on the morrow all the town
Will wear a reprimanding frown.
But whether one is sage or Ounce,
What avails it? We were once & |s
In these tricksy capers seen,
Long ago, on Hallowe zen.

Parties Getting 10 Line For an Active Gam.
paign in All Counties of Delaware.
Political developments the past
week show that there is going to be
one of the most active and exciting
campaigns in the history of Delaware.
The Wilmington Sun in it's Wednes-
days issue publishes an article over the
signature of j. Edward Addicks, clear
ly and emphatically portraying that
he is in the fight to the finish, despite
all published reports to the contrary,
and defines the policy of the Union
Republicans in the coming campaign.
He says that there will be no COM
munication with the 'bolters" or Reg
ular Republicans; no common pri-
maries will be held and straight out
in-out Union Republican ticket will
be put up in each county. He further
says that the Federal Office holders
in Delaware will be Ill the hands of
Senator Alice and j. Edward Addicks
or Senator Alice and a Democrat.
An early convention will be held to
elect delegates to the Chicago Con
vention and the list will be headed by
Addicks who will be re-elected Nation
al Committeeman. Continuing he
says "John HUM will be re-nOminated
and reelected and the Regulars can
flock by themselves with Ball, Hig-
gins and Dupont as leaders,,
Two days after, Wilmington Demo
Gratis celebrated the eighth anniver-
sary of the Democratic League and
with much enthusiasm politicians
launched a boom for Judge George
Gray of Delaware for the presidency.
Eulogistic speeches were made by
Willard Salisbury, Josiah Marvel,
John G. Gray and others. In his
speech Josiah Marvel sounded negro
disfranchisement as the keynote o.
the Democratic campaign and con
tended that the only remedy for the
evil of selling votes was to disfranchist
a great part of the negro voters, who
seem to hold the balance of power il
Delaware. He claimed that ali Other
methods of dealing with the question
of buying aud selling votes has faileC
and it has been proved that a grievou
mistake was made when the negro
was given unconditional right of fran
chise."
The negroes of Wilmington wer
much stirred up over this speech Q
Marvel and Sunday night at the cal

Bethel A. NJ. E. Church was crowde,

mon on "The Moloch of Negro Dis
