Lang Tolls a Doc Story.

Andrew Lang tells this dog story,
which, he says, comes to him on
good secondhand evidence: GA gen.
tleman had a Newfoundland dog Of
great intelligence. He had also q
pair of carriage horses which were
far too fat. He told his coachman
to dock their corn. This was done,
but the steeds were as corpulent as
ever. The coachman suspected that
some member Of the Society For
Promoting the Comfort Of Animals
was surreptitiously feeding the
horses. He therefore concealed
himself and watched. The dog came
in, numbered painfully up a ladder
into the loft above the managers and
shook an open sack of oats therein,
SC that the cereal fell into the man
gers. The horses looked up and
were fed"

LINE
ACROSS THE
STATE
RHmOTed that Florida East Coast
Ry. Will Build Across the
Peninsula.

For some time it has been rumored
that the Florida East Coast Railway
would eventually build a line across
the state connecting with the West
Coast country, but nothing definite
has yet been given out so as is known
here. The Tampa Herald, however,
has recently heard the rumOr and
publishes the following:
Persistent rumors are being circu-
lated in Tampa to the effect that the
Florida East Coast Railway intends
60 build a line of road from a desira-
Ele point on the East Coast to the
pebble phosphate region. 1t is said,
In connection with this, that Barlow
in their objective point, and from
there the road will continue across
the State to Tampa
The East Coast Railway people, it
is learned. have been seriously CON
sidering this proposition for some
months, and since there has been so
many endeavoring to get such a
scheme on foot it is probable that the
big East Coast system is gong to
head off the government.
The Florida East Coast system has
ample capital to put such a plan into
execution and it is sincerely hope.I
that the movement will materialize.
If the East Coast Railway decides
to go ahead with such a project it is
a fOregone. conclusion that the invest
ment will be a good one Such a road
will mean much for the counties and
towns through which it would pass,
and there should be no trouble in Sc.
curing a right of way.

Denniteiy Decided That No Further Move
wan be Made Untl After Adjourn ment

IL has been definitely decided that
no further move toward amalgamation
of the Republican factions in Della
ware will be made until after the
adjournment Of Congress.
This information was obtained this
morning from Dr. L. II. Ball, chair
man oi the Regular Republican State
Committee, and was IN reply 20 inquiry
as TO whether he had received a letter
from Senator Alice, tho Union chair
man, in response to his communica-
tion suggesting joint action on the
part Of the two committees
DIR. Ball declined TO 20 into details
on the subject, and, from what he
would say, it Is difficult to figure out
what hearing the adjournment Of Con
gress has on the "harmonizing' of
the Republican party in Delaware.
Senator Alice Is, of course, attending
the session Of Congress, and the infer
enoe that it will not be convenient
for him to participate in the proposed
negotiations while Congress is in
session.
1t is understood that the FIRST move
will be a conference Of leaders in both
factions, which is expected 10 follow
shortly after the close Of the session
of Congress.

Every evening, Wilmington daily commercial., 1906-06-26

Hundreds Of residents Of Wilmington
have temporarily abandoned the use of
city water for drinking and culinary
purposes, because Of its muddy oondi-
tion, and in most cases water from
springs in different parts OF the city is
being substituted. Some people are
carryin the water dozen squares
rather than use that which comes from
the city mains. The chief s0urc Of
supply are the springs in Cool Spring
Park, where there are two constantly
flowing outlets the one at Third and
Tatnall streets, the one at Fourth and
Franklin, the one at Fourth and Mon
roe and those on the Park drive All
of these springs are giving forth large
quantities of water, sufficient to sup
ply the demand from each.
All day yesterday and last night,
and also today, each of these springs
was a centre Of attraction, men, women
and children visiting them with all
sorts Of vessels and carrying the water
away. Because Of this sudden and
great demaud for spring water, the
sale of tin pals has been very large.
Most people, however, use such vessels
as they have about the house. Some
carry silver pitchers, some tin milk
pals. some large bottles, some china
pitchers, and some Of the boys make
out with tin cans-anything that will
bold water.
Some enterprising boys have started
themselves in the water business dur
ing the past two days. having engaged
customers, who take the water and pay
a stipulated price for It,
A constant stream Of people could
be seen yesterday and today walking
10 and from the several springs, and at
times it was necessary for policemen
to keep the people in line, so as to get
water according to their turn. AT
some places, especially in Cool Spring
Park, it was interesting to watch the
visitors who went there for water.
According TO information obtained
at the office Of the Water Department,
although the Brandywine water is still
very muddy, il is not unhealthy. II
is not denied, however, that it is un-
pleasant TO drink and not suitable 70
use for cooking purposes, for when u

The Water Department endeavored
TO avoid this unsatisfactory condition

dition of the water remained so long
that IL was necessary to resume pump
ing, the storage facilities being made.
