PASTOR ARTERS SPOKE
ON STREET CORNER

Under the auspices OF the Good Tenn
plars, the Rev ]. NJ Arters. Of Ep-
worth NJ. e. Church. spoke at Fifth
and Shipley streets last night in the
cause OF prohibition.
Having recently returned from Elk
ton, Md, he branded as false the as
pensions cast on the town by the IL
cense committee. Prosperity and good
order prevailed there, he declared.
Speaking against the argument Of the
vets that prohibition would depre-
ciate the value of property, he de-
clared that the only property that
would lose value because Of prohibition
would be the saloons and breweries
themselves. He ridiculed the small
loss in revenue that would accrue from
the ousting OF the liquor interests and
pointed out on the other hand, the
decrease that would result in the main
tenance Of jails, poor houses and other
Institutions.

SCOUT A VISITOR

Bob" Johnston. a wealthy mineral
land owner and former scout Of Death
Valley, Cal. is in Wilmington. having
come here to call upon his friend.
Daniel Caufiel. of the DUPONT Powder
Company.
The acquaintance between Mr.. Cauf-
fiel and Johnston came about in a
peculiar manner. With several others
Mr.. Cauffiel had been in Death Valley
looking over some property and the
horses had stampeded and the men
were left without mounts. They lad
walked for days without food or water
and were about to give up when they
spied the camp fires of Johnson's out
fit. Here they were given shelter,
food and water. and a friendship
sprung uD which caused the Western
er to come from New York, where he
is visiting, TO shake hands with the
man whom he had known out on the
plains.
A popularity about Bob" is his
striking resemblance to William Jen-
nings Bryan, for whom he is not un-
frequently taken.
