MORE GUARDS
FOR THE PARK

The coming OF the balmy atmos-
phere OF summer. the Bacchus OF the
seasons, with a larger than usual in
nux to Brandywine Park OF Weary
Willies. spooning young couples and
unprotected children. with penchant
for tumbling into streams and wander
ing under horses hoofs-all this has
prompted the park commissioners TO
take under consideration the idea Of
Increasing the number Of guards on
duty in the park. The commissioners
are after practical suggestions, and
the executive committee OF the board
at its weekly meeting In the City Hall
to-day, held a conference with Chief
OF Police Black. Chief Black appeared
by request and gave his opinions as to
the proper policing OF the tract.
The members Of the committee say
that the park has become 80 largely
frequented that larger force OF
guards is but a proper sequence Of the
rapid growth Of the city and the con-
sequent larger usefulness OF the park.
There are eight guards on the park
force at present. and the commission
ers hope that they may be able 10 add
at least two or three more. Chief
Black at the meeting to-day told Of
some of his personal experiences I'm
the park with rufhans who attack chill
dren and young women, and OF others
who have been injured or have fallen
into the park stream while guards
were in some other part of the park.
No action was taken on the matter
to-day, and It will probably be further
considered at a meeting Of the entire
park board
Other matters discussed were the
proposed covering for the race at
Eighteenth and Market streets, IN
order to give a more graceful approach
to the park drive. II was reported that
the wall for the bath house at Kirk
wood Park would be completed this
summer Bids for the work viii be
advertised for shortly.

When skies Are Blue.


It's easy enough to be cheerful
When favors are coming your way.
When close TO success you eagerly press
And all of your ventures spell pay.
When friends are around you In plenty
And every one gives you show,
But can you be gay and in rapture sing
"Heyi"
When the natiron drops on your toe7
To smile is not really a hardship
When life runs as smooth as song,
When friends lend a hand and warmly
expand
To pleasantly push you along.
When strangers 70 you are attracted
And help you promotion 70 gain.
But. say. can you grin through thick and
through thin
II the sewer backs up through your
drain?
It's really a snap to be joyous,
To spread out your chest and expand,
When money is coming In plenty
And favors fan into your hand,
When trouble is not within calling.
When woe isn't making a sound,
But, say can your girth grow wider with
mirth
When Bill. the assessor. comes round?
Who couldn't feel gay and light hearted.
Sweet tempered and all to the good
When into his life a dear little wife
Made love signs that he understood.
Whose children we're marvels and models,
Whose word in his family was law.
But could he be sweet from his head TO
his feet

MAY TAKE THE
SCHOOL CENSUS
Assessors Declare That They
Have Not Sufficient Funds
For the Work

At the meeting Of the Board Of Edu-
cation next Monday night steps may
be taken whereby the annual census
Of children Of school age may be made
in accordance with the compulsory
education law.
AS yet this has not been done, as the
assessors assert that they have not
sufficient funds TO do it. Secretary
Guthrie of the Board of Education
some time ago wrote the assessors OF
the Northern and Southern districts
calling attention to clause in the bill
requiring them to make the census OF
all children Of school ge within their
districts. He also wrote to the city
solicitor for an opinion as to whether
If the assessors failed to make the
census the Board of Education would
be liable to the penalty of losing ONE
fourth Of the State appropriation for
this city.
The assessors have notified Mr..
Guthrie that the remuneration named
in the bill of 81 for each 100 names is
not sufficient and that it win also be
impossible for them to carry out the
work without assistance. The assessors
have asked that they he given financial
aid in order to make the census.
NOT LOSE Appropriation.
According to the opinion Of the city
solicitor, the board will not be liable TO
the penalty of losing part Of the State
appropriation II II used the means In
its power to obtain the census.
The matter was laid over from the
last meeting to be resumed next Mon
day night. and Il is expected that some
action toward having the census made
will be taken then. Superintendent
Twitmyer has suggested that the board
give the assessors financial aid for the
census in order that the board may
appear before the Legislature next year
and suggest whatever changes are
found to be necessary in the COM
puisory education law. He believes
that it win not cost more than $500
to make the census and that it should
be done.
No action toward appointing a
truant officer. Of course, win be taken
until II is definitely decided that the
census shall be made. At any rate. the
board is determined to do all within its
means to make the ceusus, so as not TO
lose part Of the state appropriation.

BISHOP RULEY
SPEAKS AT MEDIA
Declares That He Has an
Abiding Faith in the JUS
tiCe Of White People

"I have an abiding faith in the justice
Of the American white people and hope
for the future Of my race who believe in
the gospel of work and who are willing
to sacrifice" said Bishop Ruley. of Will
mington. at the opening session yesterday
in Media. Pa. Of the seth meeting of the
Delaware Annual Conference Of the
Union American Methodist Episcopal
Church, the oldest body Of colored
Americans in the country.
The conference organized with the fol-
lowing officers; The Rev. Ezekiel Smith,
Of Wilmington, secretary; the Rev. p. A.
Boulden. of Newark assistant secretary;
the Rev. Albert Price. Of New Castle,
publicity committee. Bishop J. c. VIII
more, Of Canada, and Bishop j. c. Ram
sey, of Philadelphia, are assisting Bishop
Ruley in the deliberations. The confer
ence will be IN session until next Tues
day. Last night the delegates were ten
dered a reception by the church Of that
place.
Resolutions of regret were adopted on
the death Of David Ferris.
The Rev DR.. j. c. Wilmore. bishop of
Canada, made an address besides Bishop
Ruley.
Bishop Ruley said in part:
Not Pessimist.
L am not a pessimist and do not
advise, as some Of my colleagues d,
that we eschew politics because Of our
being disfranchised in certain sections
of this country. but rather let us study
nn 10 All Nfsaaa
which mean for good and honest gov
eminent as l regard the ballot as the
strongest weapon of defense the Afro
American has today in this country.
No race or nation can rise above Its
leaders. -
What we need TO cultivate and
create is efficient leaders among our
selves, build up character, preach less
and teach more the gospel Of honest
toll and upright living
"Jim Crow cars Acknowledgement
and special legislation against us are
but compliments of our worth, ability
and right to citizenship. All such in
justice cannot long endure. The black
man as well as the white man needs
to get a better understanding of each
other, estrangement and injustice prac-
ticed by either will prove fatal to our
own best interest
As to the present political condition
regarding the Afro-American in the
approaching presidential campaign.
Bishop Ruley concluding said: while
we may have some grounds for griev-
ance against the present administra-
ton on account of the discharge Of the
Black Battalion from the army with
out honor, it cannot be wholly blamed
on the Republican party. Let us take
hope in the fact that the spirit of Lin
coin still breathes. and whatever the
outcome, it is our duty to stand by
men of principle such as Senator Knox
of this State; Senator Foraker Of
Ohio. and Governor Hghes, of New
York.

vice operative. who caused the arrest
OF Armour and several others, whose
trial on a charge Of conspiracy 70 de-
fraud the government, win come up
later. gave an outline of his work on
the case 10 a reporter Of THE EVEN
ING JOURNAL to-day. He said:
Armour lives at Gceenhurst, Cecil
county Nd. ! found in the course
of my investigation that he operated
an oleomargarine factory at No. s15
Tatnall street. and also one at No. COZ
Wnilaston street. II Wilmington ont
on Baltic avenue. Atlantic City, and
one at No. 2OsO South Sixteenth street
Philadelphia. Associated with him
were several others. The business ex-
tended over a period Of two years
"On October o. 1906. 1t appears that
the alleged Illicit oleomargarine manu-
facturers in this city were tipped of
and told TO get out Of the city, and
/ informed that they were TO be raided
that night. Teams were taken 10 the
Wollaston street building, where 300l
pounds OF oleomargarine was loaded
and driven through the city under

returned the next day by boat. Shortly
after this revenue officers raided tho
South Sixteenth street building in
Philadelphia
Armour was not found and Is said
to have pawned coat and jewelry e
get money. which we found 70 be true
to leave this section Of the country. He
went 10 California. The government
officers did not follow Armour but con
fined their efforts to others connected
with the business in this vicinity. Sub
sequently an arrest was made at Pat.
