The recent order issued BY the Penn-

and brakemen should call out IAN
aboard" and the names of the various
stations distinctly IS a step in the right
direction, and viii be appreciated by
the long-sunering public especially
that portion that does but little trav-
cling.
When one Is on a journey with some
little station as ones destination It Is
exceedingly vexatlous to ask the
brakeman, How long will It be before
we reach Gardenspot?" and have him
reply, why. we passed It four stations
Deiow," and all because when the lat-
ter, when approaching the station, yell
ed out something that sounded like
'Grrr-o-t."

pany is seeing the light. and that It Is

Editor The Evening Journal
Some attention has been given to the
subject OF the marriages Of rich Amer
ican girls and foreign noblemen. In
these letters has been discussed the
motives for these weddings. such as
the love for a title, the desire for a
high (so-called) station I'm life. and so
on. But there has not been mentioned
what l consider the most deplorable
feature about these weddings. and that
is the lack Of patriotism shown by the
girls and the parents OF the girls who
contract such marriages. 1t would be
supposed that American girls. no mat
ter how wealthy. who know the num-
Der OF fine young men here. would
hesitate before marrying foreign no.
blemen. Of whom they know nothing
except that they have titles, more or
less exalted. There is one pertinent
fact, and that is that not one per cent.
OF these weddings are for love, but
are simply a matter OF barter in which
the girls give themselves. or rather
sell themselves. for a certain sum OF
money, usually immense.
And this is just where the parents
show their weakness, for the father is
the one who has to hand over the pur-
chase price. better known as the
"dowrv." These men who buy the
noblemen forget that their money has
been made in this country aud be-
longs here. Such parents are aiding
the movement for not only an inherit
ance tax, but for a tax on all large
estates. II Is about time that the wo-
mans colleges should open course I'm
patriotism, as applied to matrimony,
for these foolish sirls. and instruct
them OF the many qualities OF otr
young men as compared TO foreign fops
and brutes. Respectfully
Patriotic.

rhe Inaspendent Voter.

Editor The Evening journal.
Now that the heat Of the political
battle is over and the election thing
Of the past. we may once more settle
down to the routine OF life. From tn,
results OF the election, however great
lesson is learned. No longer are men
swayed to and fro by their party lead
ers, and no longer can a few men
hoist to the front their own candidate
and expect the people to vote for aim
lust because he happens to be a rep
resentauver Of one party. The day Of
the Independent voter has come, and
it is he who holds the balance OF power
and who dictates with the ballot what
the result Of the election shall be. 1t is
a splendid commentary on the inde-
pendence and freedom OF the citizen
who, by his act, declares that Il must
be the man, and not the office, for
which he votes. The standard Of the
character OF candidates is also being
raised. Occasionally some fanatic will
break into the arena, but the lnde-
pendents, who are more keenly alive
to the situation than they are given
credit for quickly down him, as proven
so effectually in New York. In Della
ware there As every reason to be proud
Of the victory for good government
and the Congressman who win repre-
sent this State is a man who VIII give
a good account of himself and work
for the interest Of this state.

Yes, but the similarity ends there. No
other paper is like the GLOBE Democrat in
any other respect. No other paper
equals the GlobeDemocrat in any res
pect
An entirely unique feature of the
Globe-Democrat, feature which is
highly priced by its readers, is its sys-
tematfc method of preserving and pre-
senting the CONTINUITY OF NEWS.
The two papers each week, Tuesday
and Friday. are carefully prepared with
the view of giving the complete news of
all the world for that week.
They are so combined in the makeup
as to form continued and connected
stories of the various important events,
day, and the final results.
Other weekly and twice-a-week pa
pers, as n rule, print only a few tele
grams of the day of issue.
The "TwIce-a- Week" Globe Democrat
gives the kilograms of every day in the
week more cOmprehenSiVely than the
average Daily, and of more value to the
average reader.
Moreover the "Twice- a Week" Globe
Democrat is not simply am echo of the

3 "Kenelm's Desire.D

Kenelm was an Alaska Indian, the son Of
a noble tribe, adopted and educated by a
Scotohman in British Columbia. His "De-
sire" is a lady described in the first para
graph as "impulsive, impressional, i'm
FASHIONED, rebellious, complainant, con-
ventional, convention scorning" and Hal-
truistic.' 1t Is not necessary to read fur
Their to see that the game is to end in a we'd
ding and that there will be stirring times
In bringing it about, since Desire had a Ger
man mother and a musical temperament
and Kenelin was bound to be "taciturn'
and astolid' and SILENT after the manner
OF his race.
The scene Is laid in San Francisco and In
British Columbia, where a great deal Of free
out Of door life, frankly elemental emotion,
thrilling adventures in canoeing and pic-
turesque indian traditions is jumbled to-
gether without great regard for the proba-
bilities or Probabilities of actual happen
ings. The local color is splashed on in
chaotic impressionist style with little art
and much orudeness. The great climax,
when Kenelm performed the circus trick
OF undressing himself from his laced wet
shoes TO his collar while clinging by one
hand to the face Of the cliff above a whirlpool,
is married by the fact that he had no audi
ence. We have only his word for it. After
that, to rise to being a barrister and a mem
Der of the Provincial Parliament, not to
mention marrying Desire, were simple
feats. The story Of "Kenelm's Desire
is written by Hughes Cornell and published
by Little, Brown d Co.

NEW BOOKS.
The Career OF a Nevada Masp,e.

We find ourselves among the animals In
Philip Verrill Mighels's story Of "Chatwit,
tbe Man-Tak Bird" (Harper i Brothers).
Cbatwit was a magpie, black and white,
and wiser than a crow. He lived in Nevada.
There lisa a considerable glossary Of the four
footed and the winged creatures that were
his neighbors. His particular friends were
Twelve in number and included Bolo the
hear. A-til the buzzard, Brifess the coon,
Nippe the squirrel and Ruled the horned
toad. OF particular enemies he had also
Twelve, and these included Wo-cri the coyote,
Omnus the mountain lion, Fensive the SKUNK,
Knottle the weasel, Jawwid the snake and
Klater tbs beebird. Johnny Stone, a boy
ont with a musket, caught Chatwit on his
first excursion from the mother nest, carried
him home and put him in a cage made OF a
box with stats nailed across.
It has frequently been pointed out OF
late that it ia wrong n misleading TO
children to tell stories in which animals
talk and otherwise behave like human
beings. II this was ever pointed out to
Fsop, and il he believed it, he must nave
had a load on his conscience. But we sup
rose that it is proper enough to have a
maybe talk; and, anyway, we could not
-
help feeling grateful when the great gray
blowsnake was after Chatwit that the
threatened bird should have been able to
cry out to Johnny Stone, and to say to him
johnny, get your gun, get your gun, get
your gum"
We dare say the maggie should have
sta yed in the shelter Of Johnny Stones
Slated box. Things went i'll with him when
he was out in the free wild, and when the
weasel killed his mate. To be sure, he
pecked out the weaseIs eye, and, to be sure
the weasel was further bitten by the rattle
snake, his companion in iniquity, who mad
mistaken him for Chatwit as he tumbled
through the leaves, but revenge was small
consolation to the bereaved bird. The
beauty Of the morning was a mookery to
him." the story says. and anybody who
plea ses may contradict 1t.
