All who have enjoyed '"rhe Bath Com edy," 'The Pride of Jennico," The In- comparable Bellaires, ''If Youth But Knew" and Merry Rockhurt." need no further remarks upon this subject beyond the bare announcement here made that the Castles have sent forth a. new colec- ton of short stories which are as good as anything previously written by them. which is saying a great deal.
 The book takes its name from the first story in the collection dealing with sour Scottish lord who, having been ill-treated by his first wife, meets and instantly falls in love with beautiful girl. "The Flower O the Orange who under stress shows her mettle. The lord quickly pro- poses and marries the beautiful young girl.

Archbishop Messmer of Mil
waukee, is In favor of the regu-
lation Of tn, liquor industry, rath-
er than absolute prohibition.
II do not believe we can re-
form men by law" says the
archbishop. Prohibition, accor-
ding to many observers, actually
brings more liquor into the
homes of the people than the
open sale of the intoxicants un-
der the proper police supervision.
This is because in order to buy
liquor under the prohibition the
people are compelled to purchase
in larger quantities than is nec-
essary for their immediate use.
Perhaps, too, the natural in
clination of US poor humans to do
that which we are forbidden to
do may have some more influence
in making prohibition a failure
in most communities.

A letter received from l.. o. Fullen,
by Secretary Hove Of the Water Users
Association SAYS. 'In company with
Governor Curry and Mr.. Luna, called
on Secretary Garfield. He had all the
papers in the case concerning the pay
ments by Water Users. lie gave il as
his opinion that IL was not within his
power TO modify the order. He sets
out that although the order as made
requires that the assessment against
the land under the project shall be
levied and collected by March l, 1908,
that rs n matter of fact there win be

be enforced until March 1909. He
seems 10 feel that this is all they
could expect from the government. As
TO the manner Of payments suggested
by the water users making a sl.50 per
acre payment the first year and grad
ually increasing until the last year of

he referred US TO Mr.. Newell when we
also interviewed, but he could nothing
for us in the matter.
In substance Mr. Newell's statement
was that the requests now being made
by the Pecos Water Users Association
are identical with the requests that are
being made by some twenty-five other
projects and that, IL the requests of
your association are granted. that il
establishes a precedent which will be
presented TO the department officials by

TO KEEP HOME
Wilmington Lodge Will Now
Proceed TO Alter Its
New Property

Members of Wilmington Lodge, No. l.,
A. o. u. W., last evening approved the
action of the building committee Of the
Lodge in purchasing the old home Of the
Wilmington Bicycle Club at No. 900
Washington street, and the work of alter
ing the building to suit the conveniences
OF The lodge will now be proceeded with.
Ever since Wilmington Lodge bought
the property at sherig's sale on Saturday.
January A. there has been feeling in GER
tain circles that the lodge should surren-
der its title 10 the property TO other
parties. At the meeting of the lodge last
night It was explained that the lodge had
taken advantage of no one to get possess
sion Of the property and that the property
was needed by the lodge for its own use,
whereupon III of the 1853 members of the
lodge present endorsed the purchase OF
the property.
Thee property is regarded as the most
valuable asset of Wilmington Lodge
Aside from the club comforts it will af-
ford the members Of the organization, the
property will pay for itself in eight years
thus insuring a lower expense rate for
the lodge in years to come. Heretofore
the lodge has paid 5000 a year rent but
now that the organization owns a prop
erty the item of rent will be eliminated
and the lodge membership very materially
benefited The lodge is the most prosper
GUS one in the Delaware jurisdiction and
is growing In membership daily.
