We have ust received our NEW
LINE OF MATTINGS, and have the
largest stock we have ever carried be-
fore. If the ends of each 40 yards
piece were fastened together they
would make strip long enough to
go around the race track at the Fair
Grounds three times. Surely this is
a large enough stock for you to Sc
lect from, and you must see by our
buying in such large quantities we
get the lowest prices.

rocsl fishermen who engage in shad
e.h;ng each year are making prepara-
w. 10 start out in a few days In the
W. N3a,b ward there are several men who
.n,,.ro in the business, partly for pleasure
sn5 PARTLY for profit, and several Of them
bare been busy for some time, getting
,geir nets and boats in shape. South
Wamington also has its colony Of fisher
wan vho are making the same prepara-
,;oo and it is likely that next week prob
sbly 25 or 80 Wilmington people will
iesf different points on the Delaware
piver and Bay with their boats and nets
dippng for the fish.
Tbe usual planning and preliminary
uory has been in progress for several
week. and yesterday, when the announce
ment came that q shad had been caught
near New Castle, there was more activity
tban usual This was taken as an indi-
cation that the fish are about TO run and
tbe time is near at hand when they can
be caught.
Most Of the Wilmington fishermen 20
nrettv well down the river and some into
he bav. where they have regular fishing
orounds and know the territory better
than az Quiet lolnlos AANl art ldllllllAI
NTH the condition of the river or bay at
tbe points where they go regularly and
a. rule fitd it more profitable to 60 to
the same locality each year, rather than
make a change and 60 to points with
which they are not so familiar. Some.
however. prefer to make frequent changes
and say that they can do quite as we'll
As if they remained in the same place.
Some OF the men from the city have boat
houses. which they moor either on the
banks Of the Delaware River or some
tributary which can be easily reached by
nRbOats.
Among the local fishermen there appears
to be an impression that shad Will not
be as plentiful this year as in scme former
years. which is due largely TO the fact
That the number Of fishermen is increasing
annually
Shad have been caught in the Chris
tiana and Brandywine, but in the past
few years very few fish Of this kind have
been caught in either stream.

Annoy Women in theN Heart Of the City,
in Broad Daylight.
Although a large delegation of beggars
was rounded up by the police one day
last week, aud another has since been ar
rested, there are several still at large who
are past masters IN the "art" One
OF their number has been occupying his
time in annoying women on Market street
during the principal business hours. when
the streets are crowded, and it is evident
that he is shrewd enough to get as far
away from a policeman as possible.
On Saturday three women were ac-
costed at different times, near Fifth and
Market streets, one being approached
twice by the same man. She had stopped
on the corner of Fifth and Market streets
for a few minutes TO look in a window,
when a man tapped her on the shoulder.
She turned and looked at him and when
she found he was a stranger to her, she
became frightened and started away,
without saying anything The man asked
for money. She had not gone far when
she was again surprised by the same man,
who repeated his request She left the
locality and did not see him again. but
learned afterward that two other women
had had a similar experience at the same
place. The man feigned drunkenness.

Street and Sewer Department to Wait
Until There is Some Money in Sight.
While the preliminary preparation has
been made for the new Ninth ward sewer,
which is to be built in Heald and Four
teenth streets, the order TO build it was
not given by the Street and Sewer De
partment, at its meeting yesterday, for
the reason that the board has a bank
balance of only S366.6l, which Is not
enough 10 warrant making a start. It
was decided TO wait until there is more
money in sight but as the $4,000 loan
bin has been passed by Council and
signed by Mayor Wilson, it is now law
and this money viii soon be forthcoming.
At the meeting Of the board, yesterday,
the collection for the past week were
reported to have amounted to S65S.75,
being chiefly in sewer liens. The weekly
payroll amounting to SS9203, and bills
for cart hire for the same period, S468. .55,
