heavier clothing is necessary. The. last
winter we had seven weeks of fine
skating. A very desirable condition
here, also. is the fact that II is al
ways cool in the shade. It matters
not how hot it may be in the sun, in
the shade it is always cool. The.
nights during the summer months are
delightful; the mountains act as a cold
storage plant; about o'clock every
afternoon 1t begins to grow cooler and
during the night the mercury almost
invariably drops down to between so
and 65 degrees and remains cool until
about 10 the next morning. This cool
atmosphere. which rolls down from
the mountains. will extend out onto
the prairie some 80 miles or more. and
il is due to this tempering effect Of
the mountain air that makes this part
of the country such a desirable place
to live during the summer months.

TO REPUBLICANS:

We are anxious to have every
Republican in close touch, and work
ing in harmony with the Republican
National Congressional Committee in
favor of the election of a Republican
Congress.
The Congressional campaign must
be based on the administrative and
legislative record of the party, and.
that being so, Theodore Roosevelt's
personality must be a central figure
and his achievements a central
thought in the campaign.
We desire to maintain the work Of
this campaign with popular subscrip-
tions Of One Dollar each from Repub-
iicans. To each subscriber we will
send the Republican National Cam
paign Text Book and all documents
issued by the COMMITTEES.
Help us achieve a great victory.

FRANKLIN BROKE RECORD
Travels From San Francisco to New
York in Fifteen Days.

That the Franklin car is a traveller
Is demonstrated by the fact that. after
establishing a worlds record and hold
ing it for two years. it has cut its own
record in half.
The old record for an automobile run
from san Francisco to New York was
sixty-one days In 1904 a Franklin
traversed the distance in thirty-three
days. This year, however. the same
make OF machine made the run in If
teen days. one hour and twelve min
utes.
An effort was made to break the
Chicago New York record in conjunc-
tion with this run. but the car was
ditched thirty miles west of Erie. n.
y, causing a delay Of nearly eighteen
hours. Had this accident not occurred
the Frisco-New York run would have
been made in thirteen and a-half days,
and the Chicago-New York record
would have been smashed. as when the
accident took place the car was eight
hours ahead Of the latter record.

MANY REEDlES
ARE In SIGHT

Indications are that when the reed
bird season opens next month there
will be plenty of sport for gunners all
over the State. The heavy rains have
caused plenty of wild oats for the
birds It is now ripening. and the
birds are rapidly coming North.
The season for rail birds will open
on September 1. BY this time the oats
will be fully ripe. As a rule. rail birds
are poor at the beginning of the sea-
son, and it takes ten days or two
weeks for them to be in condition.
Mud hens. which are found on the salt
marshes. are usually in fair condition
when the season opens. Wild ducks
have not started South
John Smith. of Pennsgrove, probably
holds the record for the most dead reed
birds from one shot. He found ninety
birds after emptying his double-bar-
relied gun. Early IN the morning and
late in the afternoon are the most au-
spicious times TO shoot reed birds
These are the feeding hours. In the
middle Of the day the birds are either
down in the reeds or back in the coun-
try.
An experienced gunner says that
twelve and sixteen gauge shotguns are
preferred for "reedies." AS the birds
are shot at short range, Nos. 9 or 10
short is preferred.

DOVER, Aug. 21-When Dr. T. D.
Hubbard. the wealthy Bowers Beach
resident, comes to die. and he is in
good health and spirits now he will
not be put into the ground nor ere
mated. Nor will his body be cast into
the sea.
There has been completed for DR..
Hubbard, in Odd Fellows Cemetery,
Camden, a splendid and perhaps inde-
struotible house of Mt. Vernon granite
and Vermont marble, This residence
of the dead perhaps the only mauso-
leum of its kind in Delaware, is IS feet
in length, 20 feet TO the tip-top, and
about IA feet in width. and contains
two chambers-one a beautiful mosaic
chapel with stained glass windows,
where the loving friends Of the de-
ceased can stand with the minister;
the other a series of marble drawers
which, after being laden with the body
of the deceased. can be sealed with
solid masonry. Surrounding the Hib-
bard mausoleum is a stone coping six
teen feet square which encloses a
grass plot and flower yard.
The mausoleum, like the other pri-
vate lots in Odd Fellows cemetery has
been put in the care Of William Gra-
ham, Henry f. Moore and Robert j.

this committee, of the Amity Lodge, I.

PER1L oF BARGAIN SALES.

r. RON different parts OF the country are
l. coming reports Of disasters at bargain
sales. This is the season OF special bargains, al
though, as the readers OF The Journal know,
bargains are set forth by the local merchants in
our columns about every day. But the latest
bargain catastrophe comes from ST. Joseph Mo.
There was a sale OF some sort al store in the
Missouri city. In consequence OF the terrific
crush one woman, eager for bargain, was NOR
tal,v injured and several others were seriously
hurt 1t took ten policemen to keep the bargain
hunting women in check, and they were made
quate TO the task After all, what police
inaa do in the face of a determined woman and
especially one stimulated by the prospects Of an
extraordinary bargain? When the surging mass
was the greatest in the store it was suggested
that the doors be closed, but this idea was aban-
doned, because the policemen did not think they
could empty the place of the women who were
on the inside. The dispatches from ST. Joseph
do not tell the articles that were reduced, but it
may have been drive on hose from IS to 10
cents, or a slash in peek-a-boos. The nducement,
however, was sufficient to bring out the fairer
sex.
Various remedies to mitigate the dangers from
these sales have been suggested One idea rs
that a system OF compartments could be arranged
into which the women could pass as they entered
and be kept the move while in the store. An-
other plan was to tie each woman with 4 rope as
she entered. which could serve as sort OF life
preserver and hold her back
1t was also stated that husbands could watch
the announcements of bargains and then try to
use moral suasion on their wives to be reason
able in face Of great bargains. This plan would
amount to little, because the husbands often
as deeply interested in bargains are their
wives, and when. bargain sales in mems goods are
announced the rush of men is sometimes very
large. But the commotion over bargain sales is
a high tribute indeed to the value of newspaper
advertising. They show how the people read the
papers and act accordingly These stories tell
also that it is up to the merchant whether his
advertising draws his customers. And yet in
this city there are some merchants who think
they can get along without contributing to the
advertising columns OF their local papers Too
often they are like horse trying to pull a wagon
without harness
