pEATH or DR.. MORGAN DIX.

nR. MORGAN DIX, who died in New York
- Wednesday, headed the richest corporation
in the world He was an author, eloquent
preacher and art connoisseur. Old Trinity, fa-
nous in history, will sadly miss this able man.
He was a son Of the general who said "If any
man attempts to tear down the American flag,
shoot him on the spot"
DR.. Dix was ordained in Philadelphia in 1883,
and two years later was appointed assistant min
ister of Trinity parish. He was elected rector Of
that parish in 1862. and since that time has con-
trolled its mighty finances and acted as executive
head of nine churches and twenty-six clergymen
While the business affairs of Trinity parish
have been a sealed book since 1874, its wealth has
been estimated by experts to be nearly five hum
dred millions.
DR.. Dix was a churchman Of the strenuous sort,
erudite to marked degree, strong in his affec-
tons and friendships, and able and convincing
orator His sociological work made for the good
of mankind and was always Of the practical sort.
In the death of DR.. Morgan Dix the country 1T
large will mourn for the loss of a man who did
good work in every direction-practical and
otherwise.

DELAWARE AND BRYAN.

He opponents of Colonel Bryan in the East
= are pleased with the progress of their cam
paign. They are certain that too much is assumed
by the Bryan men when the latter declare that
Bryan will surely be named at Denver. With
the two-thirds rule prevailing in the convention,
it should not be difficult for the opponents OF
Bryan, if they have the support they profess to
have, to prevent Bryans nomination. 1t has been
said that the Bryan men may endeavor TO change
the rules OF the convention so that majority
would nominate, but this is unlikely, as Bryan
himself has frequently declared that if he is to
accept a nomination he must be the free choice
OF the vast majority of his party.
A list of States that will probably send unin-
structed delegates to the convention is given by
a Philadelphia paper that is opposing Bryan and
these States if they all oppose Bryan, viii be able
to prevent his nomination under the two-thrds
rule. In an article on the subject the Philadel-
phia paper declares that Virginia may vote on
the first ballot for Senator Daniel, as Delaware
proposes to do for Judge Gray"
From this statement doubt may be raised
that the Delaware delegates will not cling to
Judge Gray after the first ballot, or for any con-
siderable length of time. This suggestion, we
believe, is clearly unwarranted, and its circula-
tion will tend to hamper the efforts OF the Gray
men in Delaware.
The Delaware delegates, as they have stated
personally, will carry out the instructions of the
State convention in letter and in spirit. We be-
eve they will work practically first, last and all
the time" for the nomination Of Judge Gray. If
they do not, the Gray men have thrown away a
great deal of effort and labor. The Delaware
men are not interested in any candidate other
than Judge Gray. Certainly the composition Of
the delegation shows that they are not likely to
be part OF the general conspiracy" to defeat
Bryan.

PEAR CROP DAMAGED.

ONE Of the strange reports from Kent county
- is that the tough Keiffer pear has been
damaged severely and the opinion is expressed
that the yield of this fruit will be small On the
other hand the opinion of growers is that the
delicate peaches have not been seriously injured.
Years ago, when it was believed to be practi-
cally impossible TO raise peaches in paying guam
titles, the Keffer pear. which is said to be prod
uct of Blackbird hundred this county, came into
vogue, and because of its hardihood it was to re-
place peaches as a crop. The Keiffer was sup
posed TO be proof against bad weather For
awhile the Keiffer was profitable fruit and de-
sirable when other fruit was lacking. The Kef-
fer was looked upon as better than nothing. 1t
was regarded as certain.
In summer this pear does yield handsome
profit to some dealers at far away points. For
instance, Keiffer pears retail in Maine, during the
summer season, at FIVE cents each, while they are
selling for fifteen cents to twenty-five cents a
basket in the fruit regions of Delaware.
If, however, we have even a fair yield of
peaches there will be little regret, even among
the growers, that the crop of pears is short.
When we have peaches other Delaware fruit
modestly takes seat in the far rear.

KENT HAY CROP

a large crop of hay. Grass has had
an early start and looks better than
ever at this time of year and the May
hay crop viii be large and the pros
poets for subsequent cuttings better

The hay crop. it is pointed out, means
much more than any other crop, ex-
cept wheat. to the agricultural COM
munities. 1t sustains in excellent con-
dition cattle. horses, sheep and other
live stock when other feed is scarce and
high,makes home-dressed meats much
cheaper. makes milk richer and cheap

tent that much more work can be ac-
complished. There has been almost a
hay famine at times during the past
few years. This year will undoubted-
" be an oasis in the desert of forage
