organization in 1897, having at his
own request, been released from fur
Their service by the appointment of
"a new member in his place, the board
takes pleasure in placing upon its
record the following as indicative of
its appreciation of the value and char
acter of his services:
From the date of the first meeting
of this board, Mr.. Prayer has given
a very large portion of his time to
the work of eradicating the diseases
among sheep in New Mexico. n to
the general improvement of the sheep
industry of the territory, and has been
incessant and untiring in the dis
charge of his duties, often to the det-
riment of his own personal interests,
the increasing magnitude of which mas
necessitated his leaving u.s..
We feel that not only the board,
but the sheep growers in New Mexico
owe a debt of gratitude to Mr.. Pra-
ger for his long continued, selfsacri-
icing labors in their behalf.
We are at a loss for words to ex-
press our regret at the termination
of his official relations with us, and
he takes with him our sincere and
heartfelt wishes for his future nap
nineSS and SUCCESS.

CHRISTMAS TREES
In MANY HOMES

There are many hundred homes in
Wilmington that have a Christmas
tree. and with the tree go of course
all those emblems OF the season that
come from German life. OF late years
there has appeared the very small
Christmas tree, usually placed on the
dining room table, instead Of the
larger one constructed for the corner.
The little one fulhrs the Christmas
purpose and REQUIRES no trouble to
dress. The holly and mistletoe have
English associations and call up the
memory Of Dickens and the old-time
Christmases Of his stories--a senti-
ment that If not actually passing away.
is less emphatic in its expression.
Flowers also adorn many of the
homes of the city-hardy roses and the
gay carnation, red and white, defying
the wintry air. The immortelles. in
wreaths and other forms, predominate
and there are some very pretty shades
especially a pink tint that is very deli
cate. The scarlet holly berry holds lis
head up with a vaunting complacency
Everywhere. and there are some frag-
rant geraniums that open their buds
ltimidly in the sunshine.

PAY Of School Teachers.

Smyrna Call.
1t is evident that unless there be bet
ter appreciation Of the services OF public
school teachers in matter OF giving them
salaries somewhere near commensurate
with the ability and accomplishment de-
manded OF them, there win be a greater
dearth than even at present exists along
this line. A new field is opening up for
our young women and young men, which
while II pays them almost double In sal
airy that school teaching does, requires
not one-tenth Of the training for equip
ment. This is telegraphy. The recent
change under law from ten and twelve to
eight hours for operators on the great
railroad system, has forced demand
from this source for operators that is
sweeping them in from commercial CEN
tres by the hundreds, and there is great
demand for both young women and
young men to enter this field now. When
young man or young woman can equip
themselves as operators in few months
and command salaries Of $50 or SIS per
month it is not likely that they win de,
sire TO take up teaching with its years
OF necessary training. and its persistent
examinations at the whim Of any
Board OF Superintendent, to obtain
salary that scarcely furnishes them with
a livelihood

REMEMBERINo THE HUMBLE.

THE humble folk Of Wilmington were remem-
( bered on Christmas Day in this city, as
they received substantial part Of the Christmas
cheer
The Salvation Army as was the custom, pro-
vided dinner for the uniortunates, and provis-
ions and gifts were sent by this organization
about the city. The army always believes in
practical sort Of Christianity. Other charitable
organizations did their share in attending the
worthy and hundreds OF citizens remembered
their fellows who areHnot so well off as they
should be
The police opened their big hearts in caring for
the poorer children with the usual Christmas tree
And whA a blessing that was The police see
more real distress than anyone else can notice,
and, prompted by generous impulses, they have
each year done what they could TO distribute the
joyous rays Of a real Christmas light into heavy
hearts Hundreds of children and their parents
shower their blessing upon the police for their
generosity and thoughtfulness Indeed, any char
ity extended during the holiday season amply
repays the giver and brings realization that it
is more blessed to give than it is to receive

AFTER BONDSMEN
OF II. G. RETTEW
Mr.. Townsend Files AfiidavitS
TO Compel Payment
Of $30,OGO

City Solicitor Townsend, who is
also attorney for the County Levy
Court. filed l6 afidavits with Clerk in
Chancery Jolls In support OF his action
to compel the bondsmen Of Horace G.
Rettew to make good his shortage.
The bondsmen are Senator Henry A.
DUPONT, George A. Elliott. James d.
Carter Charles H. Smith, United States
Marshal William II. Finn and Robert
w. Tadman. Four OF them, Messrs
Elliott Tadman, Smith and Finn. had
previously applied to Chancellor Mich
olson for an injunction preventing the
collection Of the money.
The case viii be argued before the
Chancellor at Dover on January T. The
sureties claim they are not liable, as
the shortage occurred while Rettew
was delinquent tax collector and after
his regular term as receiver Of taxes
had expired.
Rettew is now serving two years and
six months in the county -vorkhouse.

MUNICIPAL EcoNoMY.

J 7 HAS been discovered in Chicago by the
4 newspapers opposed to municipal ownership
OF any public utilities that the 1000 men employed
in removing snow from the streets in January,
1905, are still on the payroll. This fact is cited
as an instance to show that the affairs of city
cannot be managed with the same skill and econ
omy that is displayed in the conduct of private
business. This illustration, however, does not
prove by any means that city government cannot
be carefully administered. 1t does show that Is
the people are negligent of their duties OF citizen
ship those who work politics for what there is
IN it will proceed unmoested to create positions
Tor their favorites at the public TILL But the Incl
dent cited from Chicago surely must be a dagrant
one, not duplicated often in other municipalities
which have even a lower standard Of efficiency
than has Chicago.

THEATRICAL

All roads lead TO TIC GarrlclS this
week. The house offers a Christmas
bill that appears TO please most every

probably the best dramatic production
that has played the house this season.

between the two the ball of fun is kept
on the constant roll, and increases in
volume till 1t becomes an avalanche
in the last act. Seats are now on sale.
"The End Of the Trail" a play de-
plotting ranch life in New Mexico, be-
gan an engagement for the rest OF the
week at the Lyceum Theatre last night
before a large audience. The play is
one OF strong emotions and requires no
mean theatrical ability. Miss Julia
Gray as tho leading woman, Is win
some and capable, while William Jes-
sey. the leading man, assuming a most
difacult role, sustains his part admir-
ably. The plot centers about Miss
Gray, as the daughter Of the boss OF
the Santa Rosita ranch; Mr. Jossoy,
as a half breed Apache and Mexican
educated at Carlisle and West Point,
and Harry p. CONN. as the heavy
frenzied hnancier from the East
The austere trend OF the play Is re-
ieved by Gordon Eldred. as "Horacio
Henry Harmon" a former COW puncher
who has become Anglicized, and re-
turns to have some fun with his for
mer ranch mates. Others taking their
roles ably were VIII II. Stevens, Fred
erick Iloomis. Robert Harland, Jerome
Bruner, J. o. Campbell Miss Mary
Markham and Miss Lee Jarvis. The
performance consists OF four acts
splendidly mounted. Good specialues
are introduced during the play.

Tribute to Bishop Coleman.

Bishop Leighton Coleman. Of the Pro-
testant Episcopal Church, died quite sud-
denly. to the great regret Of many. He
was much respected for his earnestness
and simplicity Of character. His pas
sion for pedestrianism made him remark
able among ecclesiastics. The Bishop
took a creditable stand on the divorce
question. ranging himself along with such
men as Bishop Doane, Of Albany, in op-
posing remarriage OF divorced persons,
as well as rending Of the marriage tie for
any but the gravest reasons. We hope his
teaching and example may not be thrown

The other two men fled to Canada, where they
made a most determined fight to resist extradition
and thereby escape punishment for their conduct

tence for eight years shows what financial re-
sources will do in combating even the strong arm

ties, however, pursued the men relentlessly and

late the law learn that they are liable to a term in
prison they will hesitate before pursuing course

nobly to their call Of duty 1t is no wonder that
