BRISK DEMAND
FOR FLOWERS

Bringing fragrance and a wealth Of
color, Wilmington is besieged by an
army of florists, and their strongholds,
their shops and stands on the street
corners, are bedeclxed with the many
varieties of Easter flowers. The
abundance of flowers is marked owing,
doubtless, to the fact that Easter this
year comes later than usual. and every
soft, scent-bearing petal is a dream Of
color and beautiful proportion.
OF course the stately Easter lily, the
pearl OF flowers. has regal sway In the
realm of Easter blooms, and hundreds
of these sweet flowers will occupy
tables and affairs tomorrow with be-
coming majesty, conveying the joyous
message Of the Easter festival Or
chids and azalias are here in all their
wealth Of color and scene, and hydran-
geas come in dainty array. Then theE
are tulips, flirting in a display Of many
hues, sweet Margarets, flowers of the
realm Of clouds and poesy. dainty spi-
rea, all but melting at the touch Of
base winds; fragrant mignonette and
hyacinths, and all the fancy array Of
the less sought but gay pretty flowers
OF Eastertlde.
Wilm ngton's Easter flower centres
are King street market, particularly
Sixth and King streets and Fourth
and King, and the Madison street
market, as well as some stores en-
gagged for Eastertide in tho center Of
the city The florists are busy at the
beck and call Of flower-loving house
wives and sentimental bubbles Flow
ers are cheaper than usual this Easter,
doubtless because Of the lack Of ready
money, but the demand for them is
eager, and this Easter assuredly will
not pass in Wilmington without full
appreciation Of the flower kingdom as
expressive Of the JOY Of the Resurrec-
ton morn.

To Bar, Negroes From Voting

Annapolis, Nd, February "a
suffrage amendment to the constitu.
ton, designed to eliminate as far as
possible the negro vote In Maryland,
was introduced In the legislature
The measure probably will pass with
out material change, White voters
OF either foreign or native birth are
admitted to suffrage without re-
straint through special provisions.
The amendment was drafted by a
committee OF Democratic lawyers.
A majority vote at the polls is neces-
cary before it become part OF the
constitution.
Besides the educational qualifics-
lions the amendment prescribes that
every man more than Fl years old
will be entitled to register; who, on
January l, 1869, was entitled to vote
In any state of the Union, or she
descendant OF such person, who, be.
Ing u foreign born citizen, was natur.
allied between January l, 1869, and
the adoption Of the amendment, or a
descendant OF such person and who
iortwo years has paid taxes on $500
worth of property, or is the husband
OF person paying such taxes.
The year 1869, given in the first
two clauses, was selected because The
negro had no vote prior to that
time.

Indian had fed with his squaw.
For three days the trail was iol.
lowed toward Mexico. The Indians

up and bound on the feet OF the fugi-
lives, who at times traversed barren
rocks to obliterate the trail. Gov.
ernor Curry finally sent police and
bloodhounds after the fugitives, but
arrived Just after the murderer had
been riddled with bullets by bis owl
people. He had been found on q
high bluff OF the Sacramento noun
