THE most notable announcement made
by Governor Davidson in his campaign
speech was that relating to taxation
and the disposal of public funds. over
million and a quarter of money has
been transferred from the general fund
to the various trust funds, where it be-
longs, and from which it was taken in
large part as loan to the general gov
eminent in war time. Notwithstanding
this transfer, enough money remains in
the treasury to meet running expenses
and so render the levying Of a state tax
unnecessary, The mill tax has also
been cut down one-half, making it this

There are all kinos of people in this
world, and not the least numerous is the
class that is always trying to do some
thing different from others, or contrary
to the generally accepted method as the
right and proper way. We have the
"brainy" people, generally those of
tender, budding years, whose superior
wisdom causes them to imagine they
are the first and only to put stamp on
the southwest corner Of an envelope, or
more original still, on the back and
wrong side of the letter. 1t is so ''cute"
to fool the postoffice clerks, make
them believe there is no stamp on the
letter, cause them to do much extra
work to discover it, or to impress the
receiver, if it ever reaches him,
with it's originality" The Lord en-
dowed every rational being with at
least little common sense, and it can
be displayed by putting the postage
stamp on the upper right hand corner
of letter or package-the proper place
for it. A letter mailed with the stamp
in any position other than the right
hand corner of letter causes the can
ceiling clerk annoyance and extra labor,
and if the stamp is placed on the back
of the letter, may subject it to delay,
and if discovered promptly, causes the
clerk to say, another damned fool has
got gay"

From Their Theatres and Feels That
He Is Entitled to 3 900 for Each
Exclusion No Answers Filed Yet.
James s. Metcalfe, the dramatic critic Of
Life, has begun a suit in the Supreme Court
to recover s270, 900 from Marc Klaw, Abra-
ham l.. Erlanger. Oscar Hammerstein,

stein, Antonio Pastor, Henry b. Harris,
Albert Hayman, Henry W. Savage and
Charles Frohman.
In his complaint, drawn by Spencer,
0rdway d Wierum, Metcalfe alleges that
on January IL, 1905, the defendants con-
spired to exclude him from their theatres
for the purpose Of i~njuring his business
and character. In pursuance Of this con-
spiracy, he says, he was excluded on Janu-
airy 10, 1905, from Days Theatre, for which
he had bought tickets. Such exclusion, he
says, held him up to humiliation and ridi-
Guile before a large number of persons.
On January 10 he was similarly excluded
from thC Empire, controlled by Charles
Frohman; on January 20, from the Liberty,
klaw Il Erlanger's; or January p, from
the Garden, controlled by Henry W. Saw
age; on January %. from the Knickerbocker,
Al Hayman's; again on June l, from the
Knickerbocker; on January "a, from the
Majestic. controlled by Edward d. Stair;
on January 81, from the Iyceum. controlled
by Daniel Frohman; on February %, from
the Savoy, controlled by Frank Mckee,
and on March 81, from the Hudson Theatre,
controlled by Henry B. Harris.
The acts Of the defendants in so excluding
him have put Metcalfe, he says, to great
expense in the purchase of tickets and the
hiring of c~onveyances to and from the
theatres. He has also been damaged in
business, character, reputation and credit,
he says, all to the tune of $270, 900, or 100000
per theatre
The complaint was served on the various
defendants within the last few days. They
have not yet interposed any answer.
Supreme Court Justice Fitzgerald recently
held that there was sufficient prima facie
evidence Of a conspiracy to justify a Magis-
trate in holding the theatre managers for
trial in the crimina proceedings which
Metcalfe instituted last summer. This
decision has been appealed from and the
theatre mana gers say they will carry the
fight to the highest courts.

TWO EMBALMED As RICE WAS.
AUTOPSY TO TEST ONE THEORY
or PATRICK'S Defence.
Experiment Begun Upon Bodies OF Paupers
to See n Embalming Fluid Will Produce
Same Eject on the Lungs as IL At
trlbute ed to ChlOroform in Murder Case.

UFlDute0 10 tniOTO OTm III NuTutT Vase,
The bodies Of two paupers who died
yesterday on Blackwell's Island were taken
from the Morgue to the undertaking shop
OF Charles A. Benedict at 100 West Thir-
tenth street, and in the presence of several
doctors they we're embalmed last night.
BY means of these bodies the attorneys
for Albert T, Patrick, accused and con-
victed Of the murder Of William Marsh
Rice, purpose to show that embalming
fluid produces the same postmortem con-
dition OF the lungs as chloroform. This
ia one OF the contentious on which Patrick
is making a motion for a new trial.
As soon as the same number OF hours
rave interviewed as separated the embalm-
ing and autopsy on the body of Rice doctors
interested in the case will make a post
norton examination of the two bodies
1t Is assume that from the findings in these
two cases the doctors will be ablo to judge
whether the embalming fluid gave what has
been described as the appearance Of gas
eous irritation to the lungs of the dead
men.
Patrick's attorneys induced District At
toTney Jerome to consent to the use OF the
two bodies for the purpose. On an order
signed by DR.. Louis Schultzj Inspector OF
Charities, the bodies OF Rachel Williams,
IS years old, Of 545 Thirty-ninth street, and
Luigi Carabotti, SIS years old, of 8 Minetta
street, were taken to the undertaker's.
The woman is slightly older than Rice was.
Mr.. Benedict said last night that it was
his experience that embalming fluid did
not enter the lungs and heart and that only
so-called professors" Of embalming said
that 1t did, He could not see how the as
pect Of chloroforming could be contributed
m the hnDE nv amhllmlnQ flnld.
The hearing of the medical testimony in
the Patrick case will begin before Recorder
Golf next Tuesday, so that there is OPP
~portunity to follow the same process as
preceded the Rice autopsy. Mr.. Benedict
did not embalm Rice's body. That was
that the same fluid was used in the expert
ment. The time that interviewed between
embalming and autopsy 10 the Rice case
was one day.

Good Corn Crop.

New Castle county farmers arc on

progressive agrculturalists will have
the crop In the crib before Thanksgiv-
ing Day. Inquiry Of many farmers who
have been In Wilmington during the
past week verify the statement that
the county corn crop is above the aver
age. Farmers have had much trouble
in getting suitable help to do the lusk-
ing. but by energetic work and by per
severance the crop will all be housed
soon. OF course there are always some
dilatory farmers. but they are not ru-
merous. and the fodder win be shocked
early this fall with a few exceptions.
