GOOD FISHING
AT BOWERS BEACH
Wilmington Anglers Are An
tiCipatlng Great Sport at
Popular Delaware Resort

Wilmingtonians who are anticipating
a vacation at Bowers Beach this sum-
mer will be delighted TO learn that the
fishing at that resort is exceptionally
good this year. For years that popular
Delaware Bay resort has been visited
by many residents of this city because
of the excellent sport which anglers are
always sure of getting there.
Many improvements have been made
at the resort and a number of new cot
tages have been erected August is the
favorable month for visitors, though
many of the cottages are already occu-
pied.
big Thursday" which falls due this
year on August Q, promises TO eclipse
any similar event in the past. Last
year an epidemic of anthrax among
horses in that section kept many farm
ers away. but as this disease has been
obliterated, an immense throng is ex-
pected on the beach this season.

Glasgow is a city which knows no

ter of Mr. and Mrs. William Boggs
A strange man was caught leading
the child away from the home and was
endeavorng to quiet her crying by the
promise Of candy and a ride on the

off with the child before he had gone
very far and ealing to him he released

The principal thing about the icebox
Is to have Il perfectly alright Most
cf the trouble comes from letting warm
air stream into the box through the
drain pipe. There should always be a
trap under this drip pipe, which the
melting ice can keep filled with water.
This water tray keeps out the air.
Slime at Bottom.
Every icebox should have the ice
chamber rlnsed out with boiling water
at least once a week to get rid Of the
accumulated slime at the bottom. and
the edges Of the doors, where they bind

Gay. 1t is understood that a search
or the building was made in the belief
that 1t was mined and ready to he
blown up at l o'clock Monday morning
ionight stories were industriousiy
spread that the Emperor's final deci-
sion to dissolve Parliament was not
taken up until he had communicated
with Berlin. According to one story a.
member of the German embassy went
to the telegraph office Saturday night
and engaged q fire for direct commune
cation with Emperor Willim and only
after receiving and transmitting 1000
word dispatch from Emperor william
to Emperor Nicholas was the ukase
finally signed
The inference intended to be drawn
is that Emp error William is Emperor
Nicholas evil genius and false adviser.
The trouble with this story is that the
sovereigns would not be forced to re
sort to such a rounda bout method of
communication as direct wires are
available at Peterhof. Besides the
story is traceable to sources which usu-
ally seek to make Emperor William re-
Sponsible for all of EurOpe's ills.
The Associated Press learns that the
council Of the empire is considered to
be in recess but that special depart

1.-TWO hundred members of Russia S

Right before opening the session at

Prince Peter Dolgoroukoff and Profess

other officers.
1.-The meeting will be called to order
as a regular session of Parliament. The
dining room of the hotel. where the MEM
bers are assembled, is in great contrast
TO the imposing surroundings of the Tau
ride palace. 1t is crowded to suffocation
with excited and perspiring deputies. who
are gathered according to party afilia-
tions and informally caucusing and de-.
batting tactics are discussing the text of
their appeal. for which a general draft
ing commission is now being chosen.
There is a strong possibility that all par
ties will come to an agreement on the
to insist on an over-violent manifesto
demanding the immediate sumronng of
a constituent assembly by revolutionary
means, to which the Constitutional DEM

cillors prevailed upon him TO decide to
violate the promise he made when con-
voking Parliament, whose votes have
not justified the present measure of
dissolution. The future, therefore, is
dark. The people had confidence in the
Emperor. What will become of that
confidence now?
Perhaps it is vainly hoped a cham
Der elected in another manner can be
more easily controlled: perhaps it is
thought possible, by means Of repres-
SIGN. to pre- vent a meeting of new
Parliament altogether. The govern
ments lack of courage in carrying out
the new and difficult regime has placed

which are fn,measurable and the end
of which canIlot be foreseen"
