All this section OF the peninsula is talk
ing about the mail which arrived in Mil
lington on Friday, telling the politicians
that woman had adroitly out
witted them. The Milliugton post

Lewis Price, a Republican leader, was
slated for the place, but because OF oppo-
sition and snarl (which was forthcoming
the political leaders delayed with their
recommendations. The Postmaster Gen

and John G. Davis went to Salisbury to
protest to Congressman Jackson, but with
out avail.

 ance Pledge of Sixty Years.
 PITTSBURG. April 13.-Sir Robert Cranston of Edinburgh. Scotland, for sixty-one years went without drink of anything spirituous, but now he is on the water wagon.
 The dedication of the new Carnegie institute. the gift to the people of Pitts- burg from his distinguished brother highlander, was too much. and Sir Rob ert slipped. It was merely a slip, for one glass of claret was the extent of the Scots dissipation. but it created no end of jest among the foreigners and Americans who are here for the dedi- cation.
 With others of the distinguished guests. Sir Robert Cranston was in the bar of the Hotel Schenley when some one proposed toast to the laird of Skibo." Sir Robert hesitated for minute, and then, thinking over the oceans of mineral waters he had con- stunned. he winked at the bartender and remarked. "A little claret. please"
 Il never had drink of alcoholic liquor in my life until now" he said. mot even Scotch whisky. While lord provost of Edinburgh I had fine reputation as consumer of what you call soft drinks. but when the toast to Mir. Carnegie was proposed broke my sixty-one years thirst
 Lady Cranston heard the news be- fore Sir Robert left the bar. When she saw him she smiled and remarked:
 '.I have heard all about you. You're becoming a terrible inebriate."

A SHOWER OF MONEY
Stead at Carnegie Hall In-

HE PLANS TO STORM THE HAGUE.
Second Day of Pittsbur&'s Great Dedi- cation CercmOnies-DurinE Ovation Cash Was Pelted at Lon-
 don Editor.

PITTSBURG, April 13. - In re- markable address by William T. Stead, editor of Review of Reviews London, on international peace at the rededica- tion ceremonies of the Carnegie insti- tute of Pittsburg, the speaker announc- ed plan to raise $1OO0O0 necessary to conduct the peace pilgrimage from all countries to The Hague conference advocated in a recent New York ad- dress.
 Unbounded enthusiasm took posses sion of the large audience, and money was thrown to the floor of the stage.
 Probably never has public. speaker been given such an ovation in this city. The lightning-like rapidity with which Mir. Stead's plan to finance the pilgrimage began almost took the breath from the distinguished follow ing and among guests attending the exercises.
 Mr. Stead. after explaining the pur- pose of the pilgrimage to the next Hague conference, estimated that 1t would take at least $1OO,00O to finance the proposition. To raise this suy1 he proposed that every boy and girl in colleges and universities throughout the United States donate 30 cents to- ward the fund needed He said the lesson furnished to Europe by such movement would be an influential fac tor in the quest of international peace.
 The suggestion came at the end of his address. and he sat down amid loud applause.
 For fully five minutes the clapping and cheering was prolonged, and final- ly the speaker again arose and sa:I that probably the audience would .:ke to contribute to the fund. Immediate ly shower of silver money landed on the stage. coriing from all parts of the music hall.
 Among the invited guests who were seated upon the stage there were many presidents of universities and colleges, and at the close of the meeting the following institutions. through their heads, decided to contribute to the fund:
 Knox college. Galesburg. H.; Dr. Thomas Mcclellan. president. Allegheny college. Meadyille. Pa.; Dr. William H. Crawford, president.
 Tuskegee Normal and Industrial in- stitute. Tuskegee, Ala; Booker T. Washington. principal.
 Geneva college, Beaver Falls, Pa.: Dr. Johnston. president.
 It is said that other colleges will an- nounce their intention to contribute. The Pittsburg branch of the National Peace society has taken up the matter, and the Grand Army posts have pre- scented Mir. Stead with a resolution of thanks for his effort for peace. 5ss
 The banquet given by the board of trustees of the Carnegie institute in honor of Mir and Mrs. Andrew Car negie. the founder. was held last night at the Hotel Schenley.
