ELLENUALE.

For three years this town has been incorpOrat ed
and for that period there has been continuou,
! fghtiug on the part OF some citizens against
making any Improvements They have taken
their troubles to the courts of last resort, and the
| incorporation has won every contention, and
now stands with unquestiOned right to make i'm
! provements. This fight has caused expenditure
OF much OF the public money raised by taxation
for lawyers fees, and expenses, and there is no
one TO blame for the few betterments made to the
town, except those who have caused the trouble
Its over now, and the town authorities have com.
menced system OF improvement which should
result in better streets and better appearing

The unusual spectacle of five of
the largest hotels in Kent county
being exposed at sale to the highest
bidder by the Sheriff, tells verv
pointed story as to how the liquor
business was managed in that county
The owners in fact of the hotels in
most cases, had sold them to men
without capital, who had agreed to
pay prices far beyond any actual
value ofthe property for legitamate
business, or any purpose of accom-
mediation of the public as a hotel.
The bars were the means by which
they hoped to wiring a golden shower
for themselves. and for the people
from whom they took title, and
gave blanket mortgages. This con-
ditiOn of affairs, made it necessary
for the average hotel man in the
lower counties to sell every drop of
liquor in any manner it was possible
to enable them to pay interest, keen
up expenses and leave a margin for a
themselves. This resulted in the :
to the negro trade, the at b
racting of minors to the bar rooms I
md the keeping open of bars during
il hours permitted by law. When t. t.
he people rebelIed and voted liquor el
ut as legal business, those who n,
ED proprietorship under these con .
itions, were forced to fail, and the an
al owners are now getting legal Ki
'ssession Of their property through Di

FROM the tale of woe which the
correspondent of the city papers is
sending at regular intervals from
seaford Delaware, the public would
be led to believe that lots of rum is
consumed in that town but the facts
are different. The correspondent from
seatord, is one Of those whose occupa-
ton was taken away when the saloon
passed, and his reputation among
the newspaper people for truthful
ness, was never high at the best
and now it is below par sure. We
have learned from reliable citizens
OF SeafOrd, that the statements are
foundation, and that there
is much less liquor drank, and bet
ter order in the town, than there
was before the saloons closed. The
saloon has passed, and the fellow
who is now telling lies, will find he
vii have more respect from the peo.
BE, if he will devote his attention to
a living in an honest way.

That our town is a live town is
easy OF demonstration. More bust
ness is done here now at this time of
the year than has been done for
several years. We are not DESTROYS of
having the public think we are suf-
fering from a boom. We are enjoy
ing an increase of business and
prosperity. Our streets are crowded
early and late, people and teams are
bringing in produce and money to
exchange for goods, and our mer-
chants are paying the very highest
market prices for produce and are
selling goods at olive and let live"
prices and the people are not slow
to take advantage of this opportun-
ity and get the bargains as adver-
Used by our merchants.

4 gentleman owning sugar estate
h Demerara went out to visit It for
tie FIRST time. The day after his mr.
rival he stood watching the punts
bringing the cane home. A young
negro boy who was driving the mules.
wishing to increase the speed Of these.
struck one Of them with his whip.
The mule promptly responded by
launching out with his heels and dealt
the boy kick on the head which
stretched him on the ground, where he
lay rubbing his woolly pate on the
spot where the kick had been re-
ceived.
rs he hurt? Is he hurt?" cried the
planter in alarm. A full-grown negro,
hearing the expressions Of concern.
sprang forward hastily and. raising
the mules heels. shouted out:

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO
Their Unceasins Work Keeps Us
Str0ne and Healthy.

All the blood In the body passt s
through the kidneys once every three
minutes. The kidneys filter he blood.
They work night and day When
healthy they remove about 800 grains
OF impure matter daily. when un-
healthy some part of this impure mat
ter is left in the blood. This brings
on many diseases and symptoms-pain
In the back, headache, nervousness,
hot, dry skin, rheumatism, govt,
gravel, disorders OF the eyesight and
hearing, dizziness, irregular heart, de-
bility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits In
the urine, etc. But II you keep the
filters right you will have no trouble
with your kidneys.
