MUCH-NEEDED LESSON.

q GHIEF JUSTICE LORE gave wholesome
~ example of the administration of justice in
the county court yesterday, when he sentenced
three negroes to seven years in the workhouSe Tor
fighting on trolley car of the Peoples Railway
Company. The men had caused disorder on the
car, were put off and this followed by an al
tercation and stabbng
The severe and proper sentence imposed by
Chief Justice Lore should be lesson to those
disorderly characters who make themselves a
nuisance when they ride on trolley cars late on
Saturday nights from this city to the suburban
points. Only those who have used the cars at the
late hours can realize the disorder, and in fact,
the danger that often accompanies such rides
The companies do their best to maintain order
but the car crew is often unable to control the
situation.
Such disorderly characters these negroes
who have been sent to the workhouse seize upon
such occasions to create disturbances, and if they
do not actually engage in a fight as they did in
this instance they make themselves exceedingly
obnoxious to other passengers. Indeed. on these
late cars there is always more or less disorder.
The respectable residents of the suburbs who
must depend upon the trolley service for trans
portation either have to endure the discomfort
or use the cars at an earlier hour
The trolley cars at no time should be surren-
dered TO these boorish characters, and we believe
that if the court continues to impose such SEN
tences upon offenders as was done yesterday the
disorder will be checked. Disorderly persons
should be taught that others have rights which
must be respected

"Vinol is a godsend TO old people.
l am rs years old, but have hearty
appetite, sleep soundly. and feel active
and well to-day-thanks to Vinol.
When | was young, cod liver oil was
dispensed in a greasy. unpalatable
form. and it fairly gagged me to get
1t down. Vinol is entirely different,
very palatable and nourishing TO i'm
poverished blood Il is the finest tonic
and strength-creator / ever used.'
Mrs. II. w. Avery, Norwich. n. Y,
says; AT the age of eighty-nine
felt the need of a tonic. something
to strengthen and build me up. For
some time ] have taken Vinol, and
have found that it brings vigor and
life to the aged as nothing else will"
The reason Vinol is so beneficial
to old people is because il is COM
posed of two world-famed tonics,-
the medicinal elements Of cod liver
oil-and iron Vinol tones up the
digestive organs. aids assimilation,
makes rich, red blood. and strength

We will cheerfully return money

not believe that as a point for manufacturing il
can be compared with Wilmington.
We have long felt that people do not realize
what city we have right here. II takes some
live, aggressive man, open in mind and open in
pocketbook like Charles M. Schwab to come
here and throw at us a few bouquets and then in
timate to us the plain truth We do not become
puffed up about the compliment because we know
that in location and in other ways we have the
goods as the saying is But Mr. Schwab. al
though he did not tell us probably thought that
we needed to wake up and do more than we have
been doing.
We should be stirring The Board OF Trade of
late years has been alive and alert. II has done
much and il is going to do more. 1t has been
hampered in some ways by greedy landowners,
who simply sit with their eyes open ready TO
grab the immediate and direct benefits of any pro-
gressive movement.

EAT ANY FOOD
WITHOUT FEAR
A Dieted Stomach Gets the
Blues and Grun b.es for Z
a Good Eat

Miserable indeed is the man OF
woman whose digestive system is un-
strung-who goes to the table and
can not eat or what little is eaten
seems to ill them and lays like a
lump of lead in the stomach, refusing
to digest.
II you. dear reader. suffer this way
and will put fon your wraps now and
get from your Pharmacist a 5O-cent
case of papes Diapepsin and eat one
22-grain Triangule after your next
meal you would appreciate. five MIN
utes later. how long you suffered un-
necessarily.
There will be no more indigestion
no misery in the stomach-no sour
risings or Belching of Gas. no Heart
burn, Flatulency or Eructations of un-
digested food and acid or feeling Of
Nausea, Fullness, Headache or other
symptoms of weakened Stomach.
Stomach trouble and Indigestion
vanish like snow before the blazing
sun.
When Diapepsin works your Stom-
ach rests-gets itself i'm order. Dia-
pepsin purifies and sweetens a sour
stomach and freshens the intestines
without the use of Laxatives, and what
is more, it increases the gastric juices.
This is what your stomach is beg
ging for-more and better digestive
juices That is what makes you hun
CRY and want to eat, and you can rest
assured what you then eat will be
taken care Of properly and not left in
the stomach to ferment and turn to
gas and acid. and poison the breath
with nauseOus Odors
Get 50-cent case from your drug
gist now-you ought to have Diapep-
sin about the house always Should
one of your family eat something
which does not agree with him or her,

Young Men Had Some Trouble.

Three young men were arraigned in
City CVurC TINS morning on charges Of
assault and battery, 1t being alleged
that they were participants in a dis
turbance lost night in q restaurant at
Inlrd and Madison streets. Inc COM
plainant was Thomas +. Newell, the
proprietor. Each of the young men
pleaded not guilty and asked for a
ontinuance. The hearing was set down
for tomorrow morning. One of the
young men says that he had no part
in the disturbance, whatsoever, and
acted simply in the capacity of peace
maker He is Frank A Green. The
other two are Leonard McCaherty and
George Lynch. The trouble was not
serious, il was said. and was caused
through some misunderstanding be-
tween two Of the men.

w L DO not expect any trouble over the vac
cation of Iustison street, as requested by
the Harlan and Hongsworth Corporation
This corporation, according to the statements
of Mr. Schwab and President Coke. is preparing
to erect new carshops in which will be made steel
cars Mr.. Coke, at the luncheon of the Board OF
Trade not long since, stated that the plant when
completed, would not be eNcelled by any similar
plant in the world
AT the meeting OF the Street and Sewer direc-
tors yesterday Mr.. Hies counsel for the Harlan
and Hollingsworth Corporation, called attention
TO the importance that the corporation attaches
to the vacation of the street, ntimating that un-
less this street should be vacated the extension to
the car shops would not be made
We recite these facts merely to show the inn
portance that surrounds the matter. We believe
that thoroughly satisfactory arrangement will
be reached. The Jessup and Moore Company and
the Wilmington City Gas Company have proper
ties in the neighborhood, and naturally they want
as little damage as possible done to their proper
ties Therefore the ground will be visited and ex-
amined with a view to reconciling all conflicting
interests The sooner this is done the better The
city wants the Improvement of the car shops to
proceed as rapidly as possible
The one important thing to bear in mind is
that the street must be vacated The request of
the Harlan and Hollingsworth Corporation must
be granted even if it be necessary for the city to
pay for the damages out OF the city treasury.
We want industries in Wilmington. We must
have them. One of the greatest leaders of indus
trial enterprises is interested in Wilmington. His
concern here came as a matter of chance We
the Harlan and Hollingsworth Corporation need
have no fear that their request will not be grant
ed. II is as good granted now, and there is to
be only question of adjustment.

MR.. GRAY's APPOINTMENTS.

M r. GRAY, the attorney-general-ele
- doubtless with view to settling the APP
pointment of his deputies without prolonged
contest in which the friends of the different aspi
rants would be urging their claims. has COM
peted the list Of his assistants. He has named
men qualified to perform the duties that will
devolve upon them, and we shall therefore expect
a satisfactory administration of the office of at
torney-general.
The Republican attorney-generals whom Mr..
Gray succeeds have set high standard of con-
duct in the office. and Mr.. Gray evidently intends
to continue that standard.
In his election as attorney general, Mr.. Gray
has been paid high compliment by the people of
this State Not certainly during the present gen
Grafton and in fact we do not recall an instance
in State election, where one party won by a
large majority and at the same time elected a
candidate of the opposition to one of the most inn
portant places
The one thing and the important thing, was
that the people wanted not the slightest question
to arise about the conduct of the office Of attor-
ney-general
Politically speaking, Mr. Gray has appointed
his close personal friends to the positions but
they are all competent and that is the chief point
to be considered.
