A NOVELTY WORTH WHILE

A NOVELTY WORTH WHILE The Miller Sterling company has on display in it's storeroom the latest and most perfect thing in the way of talking machine, one that cannot fail to impress every person who has an opportunity to see it. It is called Victor Yictrola and is an improvement on the ordinary Victor both in appear ance and in the reproduction of sound.
 At a glance it is very like a closed desk or square cabinet but on lifting the cover one sees an ordinary Victor machine beneath the lid, except that its metal plates are 14-carat gold plated. and there is no horn in sight. It is then disclosed that the horn in stead of turning up as usual, turns d6wn into the cabinet beneath the ma chine and thence to the front of the cabinet where through two little panel doors the sound is emitted into the room. When the machine is. started the lid of the cabinet is lowered and for the most part the harsh scratching of the needle on the record is. kept from the ear, while the sound from the horn may be regulated in volume by partial ly or completely closing the panel doors Just below the doors shelf may be pulled out on which to lay the records in use and below this shelf and at each side of the panels there

RETURNED FROM VACATION

Prof D. F. Jantzen and family return ed yesterday from vacation spent at Prescott and northern Arizona.
 p PRISONER ESCAPED-A Mexican prisoner employed at Florence in the construction work on the new prison. did himself a mighty scurvy trick last Saturday. He was a trusty as most of the convicts employed there are. and though he was sent up from Yavapai county for murder he only had about eleven months more to serve and that would have been cut in two by good behavior and faithful work. He was engaged in driving -eam, jumped his job and trekked through the brush out of sight and hearing before he was missed. It is believed he will be re- captured and have good stiff sen tence for running away beside losing his credit marks and having to serve the remainder of his original term. The maddest people over the incident are the other cOnvicts, most of whom respect their privileges and feel that such acts as this will tend to abridge them. If they could get hold of the deserter they would kangaroo him properly.

Al ths New PieLewlek Theatrs

Large audiences are present at all
performances at the Piclwick this
week. The elaborate program is de-
entertaining. The De Nette
Sisters lead off with some very clever
singing. Their new buck dance won
the crowd and is heavily applauded.
.Inez George rendered some fine ballads,
her dainty dancing being a feature of
the bill. Miss Georges dancing and
songs were all new. Thomas w. Hus-
ton, of the Standard Theatre, Philadel-
phia, again scores at each performance
with his song illustrations and new
songs Mr.. Huston has a remarkable
baritone voice. Herman Neefs Or
chestra rendered a sweet musical pro-
gram. The music accompanying the
pictures was fitting and well chosen.
A large program OF life motion pic
lures was portrayed, consisting Of a
Family of Cats, An Arabian Dagger,
The Rag Picker's Daughter, Just Like
a Woman, and He Couldn't Rald Eng
lish. The dramatic and comedy fea-
lures of films were cleverly portrayed.
The program will be changed three
times a week hereafter, Mondays,
Wednesdays and Fridays.

AN EXCELLENT ADDRESS.

HAT was an excellent address made yester-
Il day at the Delaware College commence
ment exercises by Mr.. +. N. Nalandigham, ior-
merlv a newspaper editor of this city, and subse-
ouentlv one of the faculty of the college. II IS
well at this time that some person like Mr. Nal.
landieham should speak out Tor liberahty OF
thought as regards the discussion OF social and
economic questions and it is well that such an
address should be delivered to a body OF young
men who have finished their studies at one OF our
education al institutions and who are about to
take up the more serious work of fe-that is,
earning a living
If education does not dispel narrowness of
thought as to the great questions OF the day. II
it does not widen the viewpoint and is not con-
ducive to a high conception of justice, then that
education falls far short of what should be its
purpose.
Mr. Vallandigham told some plain truths, how
ever uncomfortable these truths may be to those
in this country and in this State for example who
frown upon any discussions of questions where
the rights of wealth and the rights OF property
are concerned.
Mr. Vallandigham. as we take it, considers
alike with property the rights of individuals The
bulwark of any successful republic is freedom OF
discussion and freedom of speech within reason
able bounds. but these reasonable bounds not
TO be misinterpreted by narrow notions such as
pertain in some parts of the country.
Mr. Vaandigham says: Public discussion
must be subject to public regulation, but the
GNc2cnClCS OF DolCllS great CllCS SnOuiu nOl DC
made the excuse for silencing minorities For ex-
ample, police commissioner of very moderate
wisdom and self-control, and small civic expert
ence should not be empowered TO throttle free
speech at will. If the Socialist has definite plan
10 propose and he has one almost chdshly def
mite in some respects, by all means let him learn,
like the rest of us to speak in due season, but If
you would silence him permanently, do it with
arguments, and not with the clubs of your po-
lice"
Perhaps Mr. Vallandgham was referring to the
experiences in New York city, where it was pro-
posed to silence the Socialists with police clubs.
But the same spirit exists in other cities, as we
in Wilmington know, the spirit that seeks to pre-
vent men from expressing their opinions from
forming union or doing other lawful things.
Another point was made by Mr.. Vallandigham
when he said: "The question of municipal Social
ism is upon us. and must be met not with hys-
terra or blind denunciation, but with sound argu-
ments, or it will triumph within a decade"
Mr.. Vallandgham, of course, speaks as a stu
dent of history, but to those who believe in re-
preston and in name calling his words must
seem strange.
We trust that the address which was printed in
THE JOURNAL yesterday will be carefully
read and studied. Ii is worth IT,
And we are pleased to note that it was printed
in the paper of which he was formerly the editor.
It is the best thing that has illuminated our con-
temporary's dark pages for many day.

THE INJUNCTION HuBBuR.

n LTHOUGH much has been said about the
platform to be adopted at Chicago the
voters will pay more attention to the utterances
OF the candidates than they will to the declaration
OF the platform. A great fuss has been made over
the so-called 'anti-iniunction plank" and one
might fancy from the hystercal headlines in some
OF the conservative" papers that the courts were
in peril of assaults by anarchists
OF course the absolute absurdity of shrieks Of
this kind is apparent when il is remembered that
Mr. Taft himself has been member of the judi
cary and that there is no intention to discredit
the courts
For our part, we would favor the Injunction
plank as originally drawn if the reports of the
plank are correct, but il will probably be modi-
ned as result of the clamor of the distinguish
ed" men and agents Of certain interests who have
been most virulent in their assaults upon the
President
The original plank was reported as follows:
We declare for such amendments of the
statutes OF procedure in the Federal courts
with respect to the use of the writ of iniunc-
ton as WILL on the one hand prevent the
summary issue OF such orders without proper

WOODMEN PAY
FRATERNAL VISIT

At a regular stated meeting last
night of Wilmington Camp. No. 9555,
Modern woodmen of America, the oc-
casion was enlivened by the presence
of a delegation from Delaware City
Camp, No. 1891.
The Delaware City Woodmen were
composed of Consul Sergeant Edward
Lacey w. M. wilkinson, William Bid
die, Edward Thomas and Joseph Peak.
The purpose of their visit to this city
was to see the Wilmington woodchop-
pers in action with their degree team,
and three candidates were put
through" the several degrees Of the
order.
While Delaware City Camp is the
--latest acquisition in Woodcraft in
Delaware. Consul Lacey says that the
Wilmington camps will have to look
to their laurels, for Delaware City
Camp does not intend to stand still in
its membership roster. The visitors,
after passing a pleasant evening, left
for the city on the Delaware at 1O.45.

THEY cHEERED ROOSEVELT.

HEY cheered Roosevelt for about fifty min
n utes, for almost an hour, at the convention
yesterday which demonstration must have shock
ed the New Workers and others from the East
who have been convinced all along, or at least
say they have been convinced that the President
is bad man" and unpopular with the people.
Their organs report says that the delegates sat
silent and annoyed by the demonstration and
these delegates soon tired of it. No doubt they
have been tired Of the President for some time,
but they have been unable to get rid of the an
noyance.
Then they explain that the demonstration was
made by the ofice-holding delegates from the
West and South--a put-up job. How very anus
ing are these explanations of those who have been
bafhed in their anxious efforts to discredit the
President. We wish there way to take
the sentiment of the Republican voters upon this
queston-even here in the East. We are sure
that the sentiment would be overwhelmingly for
the President and the doctrines he stands for.
The demonstration in the convention, however,
showed definitely how the President is regarded
at a national gathering of representatives of his
party. 1t showed what has all along been be-
lieved, that had it not been for the determination
of Mr. Roosevelt not to become again candidate
of his party he would have been nominated with
whoop The voters of this country with
the President, with his policies and the so-called
conservatives" might as well accept the fact

undiminished the power of the courts to
force their process, to the end that justice
may be done at all times and to all parties.
However, the voters will look to the express
sons of the candidate regarding this and other
questions. Mr. Taft, if nominated will state his
own views, and the people will judge him by
them. The campaign we believe will be fought
largely upon the lines of personality.

paffodll POISONING.

A large number OF plants which are
usually looked upon as harmless pos
sess poisonous properties. says the
Dundee Advertiser. Those who are
employed in picking daffodils aud mar
cissus frequently suffer severely from
a troublesome skin affection known as
"daffodll poisoning" The most trying
feature of this aIlment is the small
gatherings which form under the tin-
ger nails. II Is said that minute crys.
tails OF lime exist in large numbers in
the juice OF the stems Of the pretty
blooms and that these are responsible
for the poisoning. Regular daffodll
plckers are accustomed to rub their
hands with oil and work tallow In un-
dernenth their finger nails before be-
ginning their work. The bulbs OF the
white Roman hyacinth have similar
unpleasant properties.
