4 PHILADELPHIA WILL,

There are earnest Prohibitionists, and there are also earnest anti ti-Prohibition- ists. The will of Robert G. White of Philadelphia indicates that he was one of the latter. He said in his will that if at any time any of the beneficiaries or their successors ever commit any act or in any manner whatever give any support, aid, sympathy or countenance to what he considered the pernicious fallacy of prohibition, or local option, or any other scheme for the total sup pression by law of the sale or consump- ton of liquors that will intoxicate when abused or used to excess, or commit any act of prescription against any per son of good moral character, by reason of being engaged in the manufacture, sale, or owing to the rational and tenn perate use of such liquors, then and in that cease such legacy shall become for feited and void.
 A rather queer will, and if it is a sgood one other will-makers may have Hike queer notions. For instance, man might declare that no Democrat, how ever licked and meek, should inherit any. of his part of the earth.

IS FYPRCTED.

The expected sometimes does happen. It happened yesterday afternoon in Hartford when Morgan G. Bulkeley was nominated for United States Sena- tor. The wise, and even some of the foolish, have for weeks known that this was going to happen. The election in November settled the matter, and since then it has only been a question of time. MT. Bulkeley had an abundant entrance into the nomination, having 154 votes on the first ballot. His oppo- nent, Mir. Fessenden, had about the number of votes the wise expected for him, namely, 73.
 Of course MT. Bulkeley will make a good Senator. Nobody, we think, even among those who have been most stren- uously opposing him, doubts that. He knows men, he knows politics and pub lie affairs. He has had a long and thorough experience in municipal and NN~NS oNfSA t1iA1SAAls anu has ranged from Councilman to Cover nor. He isn't given to talk, but he can see sagaciously and act with prompt ness and decision. It wont take him long to find his place in the Senate, and he will we'll fill it when he has found it. He has had a long and strong ambition to be Senator, and he will have strong ambition to be good one.
 So ends a very interesting episode in connecticut politics. It has covered many years, entered into many con- tests, made and unmade many men, and caused no end of stir and trouble. MT. Bulkeley has held on to his purpose with great patience, persistence and strength. He has at last arrived. We | congratulate him, and we feel sure that the State will profit by his services in Washington.

 Who looked the papers OCT; He sought to find a subject that Had not been touched before.

CAROLINA RICE DISHES.
Delicious Southern Recipes Passed On From eneration to eneration.

Delicious Southern Recipes Passed On
 From eneration to eneration.
 "As the birthplace of rice in Ameri- ca, as the leading rice producing State for over two centuries, and as the only section of this great continent where rice has been appreciated at it's true value and prepared as it should be. it is peculiarly appropriate that the public should be enlightened with our methods of preparation, introduced by Carolinians through this medium, to the variety of nutritious and delightful combinationes which are given in this book" writes Mrs. Samuel G. Stoney, in her introduction to the Carolina Rice Cook Book (Carolina Rice Kitchen Association, Charlston. $. O
 Beginning with a eulogium of rice as a foodstuff, Mrs. Stoney proceeds
 to give a large number of rice receipts, the majority of which, she says, have been in constant use for over a cen- tury, passig from geeration to genera tion, precious heirlooms, jealously guarded by the dear old housewives of the past, and many of them now for
 the first time appearing in print" ..
 This little paper bound book is re- doent of the South-the South oe fifty years ago. Even the names of many
 of the dishes sound queer and outland-
 ish to Northern ears, like "gipy rice bread" 'philpy,' "pany getta," "poo-
 shoe rice bread" hopping John, y bubble and squeak and "pan journey cake" Some of the recipes, too, call for baking boards and open fires, and
 many oe them are ordered on such a generous scale as to suggest hotel rathe than a private family. This, for example: Cut up in small pieces one-quarter peck of okra; skin one-half peck of tomatoes, and put them, with 8 shin | or leg of beef, into ten quarts of cold | water. Boil it gently for seven hours skimming it well. Season with cayenne l or black pepper and salt. A ham bone boiled with the other ingredients is | thought an improvement by some per- sons. Serve with rice.--(Carolina l Housewife. There are several other recipes for l this famous and delicious soup.

practice of measuring the Holsters and instead measures the, spaces, the idea being to allow short Holsters to escape and to transfer the penalty of fines from the contents to the receptacle. Traps not branded are to, be illegal and made liable to confiscatioF. It is pro- vided that Holsters caught in such traps shall not be subjected to measurement by the wardens, who are instructed only to examine the traps for the seals.
 This looks reasonable, though we don't know how well able the little lob- ster is to take care of himself.

MORE HOPE FOR THE LOBSTEl

MORE HOPE FOR THE LOBSTER.
 The human lobster doesn't need pro- tection, but the fish lobster does, and in the interests of good grub he ought to have it. There is a call for intelli- gent legislation in his behalf in Con- necticut, and in Massachusetts an in- telligent bill has been prepared by a Massachusetts man which represents "the results of forty years of study of the natural history of this shelltish and of the prosecution of the industry by observation along the coasts for that length of time" The author of the measure has served notice that he will ask for cooperation from Maine's lob- ster guardians, and, in the event of putting his bill through successfully, extend his agitation for uniform protec- ton in Rhode Island, Connecticut and New York. Representative Davis, of Massachusetts, who has had intimate knowledge of the lobster for forty
 years, describes his protective measure. The bill calls for the construction of traps of a specific pattern, to be off, cially branded by the town sealer on both sills of the trap or pot. The traps are to be built with a space of not less than two inches between the wires or laths. That is,. the State abolishes the

 gnry M. Fqagler hopes to create an
 d-rail line to Key West, Florida, by sakihg advantage of the Florida Keys aa8 extending his present line to the GuM port, Key West, 1t will be re- called, lies practically at the western extremity of series of coral islets and geefs extending in the arc of circle southerly and westerly from the ex- treme southern points of Florida. MT. Flagler's proposition involves the ex- tension of his present railroad south ward from Miami and, after the coast is reached, over the coral reefs to Bahai Honda, from which point the line is to be carried on trestle through waters broken here and there by coral reefs to Key West. The project is an attrac- tive one, if feasible, in that it will per init of the running of trains solid from New York to Key West, whence huge ferry steamers could be taken to Ha- vana, eighty miles or so away. En- gireers are at work on the route and if their report is favorable the construc- ton of the line is to be undertaken as soon as possible.
 By and by perhaps there will be a railroad across the Atlantic, if not above the water below it.

Artesian Waters near Wilmington, N. C.

In response to requests from
the business interests of Whining
ton, N. c., plans have been made
by the United States Geological
Survey for the Investigation Of
the ~artesian water supply III that
vicinity. In this rapidly-growing
city there is great need of an ad e
quate supply of pure water for
drinking purposes aud of a large
quantity of water sufficiently pure
for industrial uses. The special
attention of survey officials will
be directed to the depth of the
water-bearing strata. the quantity
and head of water which can be
obtained, as we'll as its suitability
for domestic purposes and for use
in boilers and in the industrial
arts.
Situated as it is on Cape Fear
River, Wilmington is the natural
outlet for the rice interests of that
region. In other parts of the State
the production of rice has been
immensely increased by the abund-
ant water supply obtainable from
artesian wells, and there seems to
be no reason why the same uccess
should not attend the use of arte-
sian waters at Wilmington. The
cost of sinking the wells is unim-
portant when compared with the
results obtained from the use of
the increased supply of pure wa
ter.
Wilmington lies on the outer
edge of the Atlantic coastal plain.
The geologic formations of this
plain consist of unconsolidated
beds of sand, which outcrop in the
vicinity of the fall lines Of the riv-
ers and then gradually dip "a
ward beneath later beds. The out
crop of porous strata, distributed
over large areas, serve as a collect
ing ground for the water. When
absorbed the water follows the dip
of the strata seaward. Wells have
been successfully drilled in these
strata at ever-increasing depths as
one passes seward over the coastal
plain.
The results obtained from drill
ing in New Jersey, Maryland and
Georgia give the impression that
an abundant water supply may
also be obtained in the coastal
plain deposits of southern North
Carolina.
The investigation will be con-
