How Paul Jones COuntered.

"What Paul Jones the pirate 70
must have been the shocked reflection of
many an honest Briton on hearing that
the United States was about to pay be-
lated honors to the famous renegade. 8"
He himself, by the way, rather neatly
countered the English governments de-
nunciation OF him as pirate. He re-
piled that he had looked in the diction-
airy and found a pirate defined as "an
enemy Of mankind" and "as England
was then at war with the whole of Amer
lea. the greater part OF Europe, and much
of Asia, not to speak OF bit of Africa
she in point of fact came as near being
the enemy OF mankind as could well be
and that England was there
fore the pirate, and not Paul Jones. -

Governor.
The time and money expended
in training the citizen soldiery is
far from wasted, as many who are
not informed suppose. Towns and
cities maintain and pay regular sal
aries for constables and police to
keep the public peace, and the Nat
ional Guard is only a higher form
of public defence of good order.
We hope to see the National Guard

The Prize Masculine Paragon.

The young women of Kilkenny, Ire
land, have been kind enough to give tO
the Irish Packet some ideas of the
qualifications which they require in a
husband. The first prize was awarded
to Miss Pauline Vesey Griffith. who in
sisted that her lord and master should
be as handsome as Apollo, with the
courage Of Michael Dwyer, the strength
of SandOw. the sublety of Machiavel-
II. the patriotism of Emmett, the enthu-
siasm of a Loyola and the patience Of
job. In addition to this portentouS list
Of virtues Miss Griffith further speci-
fled that the partner Of her joys and
sorrows should be able TO eat anything
set before him, that he should smile
sweetly when he found his papers scat
tered over HE floor and the baby blow
ing soap bubbles with his favorite
meerschaum, find no fault when the
wife of his bosom sharpened her pen
ellis with his razor, and accept the sit
uation with joy should she determine
to bring her mother and four sisters to
live with him. In conclusion Miss Grif-
fifth mentioned that she had no very
great hopes of ever finding this para

That Japanese food can be eaten only
by the japanese, with a few rare ex-
ceptions, is a fact painfully well known
to those who have Travelled in Japan,
and now that the little brown people
are so prominently before the public
eye it is interesting to discover, among
other interesting facts, just what the
Japanese eat.
The question of food stands first with
tourists in Japan and is a serious one,
and what the Japanese would consider
dish fit for the gods could not be
endured by one of other nations.
In travelling through the land of the
mix . this is discussed by tourists
more than any other theme, and it is
an unfortunate fact that, with the ex-
ception of a few hotels conducted ex-
pressly for foreigners, it is impossible
to obtain bread, butter, milk, meat,
poultry, beer, wine and coffee, and
even fresh fish is rare, and one is in
deed fortunate if he can subsist cheer
fully on eggs, rice and tea and now
and then a vegetable devoid of taste.
The only way for one who is touring
Japan is to carry his food with him,

THE Republicans of the city OF
Wilmington are at odds over the
filling of the city offices, and the
colored member, Thomas Postles,
claims the privilege of naming at
least three of the seven officials.
He represents the colored Republi-
cans and the Union Republican fac
tion of the Republican party, and
from his standpoint that is about
fair distribution of the plums. All
factions stood together and elected
the city ticket last month; or the
Democrats would have made clean
sweep of the whole city hence the
attitude of the colored member of
City Council in the matter of choos-
ing the city officials and clerkships.
1t looks now as if the gang would
have to permit Mr.. Postles to share
the Offices on a fair basis, or that
the present Democratic holdover
officials would remain in Office for
some time to come.

Farmers Big Profit Growing Alfalfa.
KENT COUNTY FARMERS ARE GOING TO TAKE
UP THIS PAYING CROP MORE ExTEN-
SIVELY.

Since the big rally of farmers at Cam
den Camp last month, there has been a
new determination on the part of the
Central Delaware agriculturists to grow
alfalfa. Alfalfa, the great hay now grown
in the west, is not only sure to keep for
the stock all winter, but is also a big
money maker, as was then demonstrated
by DR.. Neale and other specialists from
the Delaware College Station. One far
mer who had already begun extensive
growing, reports that he sowed his crop
in September 1904, cut his first crop in
March, second crop in April, third crop
in May, and fourth crop in June, thus
making four cuttings in four months, and
his average was one ton per acre in cut
ting. His hay brings him SIG per ton,
and he will cut crop each month until
December, making at least nine cuttings
per year. Of nine tons per acre at $l6,giv-
ing him a total per acre of Si44 per year.
The farmer who plants twenty acres and
has this run of luck with his alfalfa has
thus a bonanza.

THE National Guard of Delaware
has completed its tour of field in
structions for 1905 with credit
the Guard and the State. Exces-
sive heat prevented part of the
plans of the commanding officers
from being carried out, but the time
was not wasted,a the men devoted
the day to rifle shooting under the
instruction of an officer of national
experience; and, the results show
great advancement in that line The
ranges were from two to one thous-
and yards, and the try out showed
the result of steady work at the
rifle ranges. Only one man from
the Milford company secured place
on the team to go to Sea Girt, New
Jersey, on the goth of August to
shoot in the interstate contest,
while seven men out of the sixteen
selected came from the company
located at New Castle, where they
shoot every month at range of
three hundred yards. It is the
constant practice that accustoms
the man to shooting accurately
with the rifle,Gnd as it is necessary
in time of war for men to be able
to hit what they aim at at ranges
approximating one thousand yards
effective rife shooting forms one of
the first units of effective soldier
ing. The changes of drill and skir-
mish formation, have made the Gus
toms Of ten years ago antiquated,

modern formations of warfare.
which require the use of wide
of field work. The camp
work itself is but little changed,
and the necessity for good guard

is unchanged.

WOODLAND BEACH, near Smyrna

for thousands of people from Phila-
delphia who come down there on
steamboats, in large numbers es-
pecially on Sundays. The hotel
people reap a rich harvest from these
people, and many residents hire
bathing suits, furnish amusements
and refreshments to the crowd, as
an avocation. Some persons have
attempted to enforce the Sunday
blue laws for the purpose of de-
stroying the popularity of the place,
and this week many arrests have
been made; but the residents of
Woodland Beach have employed
able counsel, and will fight the op-

TO DESTROY FRUIT PESTS.
Parasite at Last Found That is a Ter
ror to the Goblin Moth.


The colony of Goblin moth parasites
that was imported from Europe and
set free in apple orchards in the Pa
jaro valley has been working indus
triously and successfully and there is
rejoicing among orchardists now that
they feel assured the arch enemy of
their crops will at last be overcome.
says the San Francisco Examiner.
Deputy Horticultural Commissioner
E. NJ. Ehrhorn returned yesterday
from a visit to the Pajaro valley,
where he went to investigate the new
ly discovered parasite, which has been
the center of great deal of interest.
Various sections were visited and 1t
was found that the parasite had been
busily at work destroying the pest
The deputy commissioner expresses his
confidence that the parasite will be-
come firmly established In that sec.
ton, which will ultimately work tn,

For years the growers have beer
compelled to spray their trees from
three to eight times a year to get any
kind of a crop. State Commissioner
Elwood Cooper sent George Compere
on a qu est after the natural enemy OF
the destrutive moth, with the result
that the parasite was found and i'm
ported and last season colonies were
placed in every apple producing coun-
ty in the state.

age.
The shortage of the fruit crop in
the Pacific coast states has had the
effect of bringing into Idaho a num-
Der of fruit buyers much earlier than
usual this season, says the Boise Cap
ital News. SO far they have not made
themselves very conspicuous, and but
few contracts are reported to have
been made.
Talking with a gentleman engaged
in this business at the Idanha this
morning he said: "T do not wish to be
quoted. for there are a good many
that will not agree with my state
ment. and will be greatly surprised
to know that the crop in the Boise.
Snake river and Payette valleys is go
ing to be much below their expecta-
tions.
II have driven pretty extensively
over the country and gone to look at
every orchard of any consequence. In
some places the yield will be practi-
cally a full crop, others perhaps a
little better than half the excepted
yield, and from this it decreases ON
down to almost failure. One pc
culiar feature is that in some neigh
borhoods I have noticed big crop in
one orchard, while the place adjoin-
ing would show the trees bearing but
little fruit.
THE cause of a light yield, general
ly speaking, is undoubtedly the late

HISTORY OF OREGON.
Prof. Joseph Schafer Of University Of
Oregon Is Author.

Joseph Schafer, head of the depart
ment of history in the University Of
Oregon, has written "A History Of the
Pacific Northwest" which is con-
densed into 800 pages It comes
forth very timely to the Lewis and
Clark exposition. IT was thought best
to treat the region as one whole-that
is, disregarding the political divisions
Of Oregon, Washington and Idaho.
This because the organization and
operation of the new state govern
ments in this region differ little from
those of other of the United States.
but the process Of subjugation OF the
wilderness and the development Of a
great civilization in the inaccessible
Northwest was quite different from
what took place elsewhere. The
author believes the special physical
conditions prevailing there gives the
history of the region a charm belong
ing to itself alone.
The earlier period Of the history is
treated with the most fullness. These
chapters tell of the early explorations
westward; origin of the Lewis and
Clark expedition opening a highway
to the Pacific; the Columbia river fur
trade; the conflict of claims between
England and the United States, which
took 20 years to settle; the colonizing
movement, and the great migration.
The five chapters which are de-
voted to more recent times are about
the opening of the new era: the
Northwest and California; the Inland
Empire; the age of railways, and the
Pacific Northwest of today
The volume is well illustrated and
indexed, and is printed on unusually
good paper. This historian makes
definite choice among the suggested
origins of the word California" He
says: "The name California now
known to have been derived from a
sixteenth century Spanish novel, was
! first applied to the country about
1870"

An Enormous and Aged Oak.

Accordin to Mature" the Cow
thorpe oak. near Wetherby in York
shire, is credited with being the larg-
est tree in the British Isles. The
claim is based upon the girth and
spread of the tree. as 1t is doubtful
whether It ever attained great
height. "The Yorkshire Herald" May

duced from n painting, which is be-
lieved to be an accurate representa-
ton of the tree as II appeared so years
ago, and extracts are given from a
pamphlet issued with the picture.
There is no doubt that this oak passed
through its Seeding state several CEN
turtles ago; DR.. Jessop, in 1929. sug-
gested an age exceeding 1900 years
