WELL WISHES TO MR.. MAcLEAN.

a GREAT many persons in Wilmington are
a interested in the movements of Mr.. r. J.
MacLean, president of the Wilmington Board
of Trade He has retired from the position Of
manager of Goldey's Commercial College, but
will engage in other business in this city We
are sure that the business men of Wilmington
do not want to lose the energetic president OF
the Board Of Trade.
Men like him do not grow on every bush and
cannot be picked up for the asking. Indeed they
are rare. For many years he has been among
us, strong factor in the life of the city. A
man more alert or more energetic we have never
seen. He has been here, there and everywhere,
aiding in everything that promised for the bet
terment of Wilmington
His eyes have surveyed the entire city in its
many activities. His tongue has frequently
been with the newspapers urging them to make
still harder fight for greater Wilmington. His
ears have been acute to hear any suggestions
from business men or manufacturers of high or
low degree as to what could be done to advance
the city. His strong hands have ever been ready
to give lift TO anything that "ooked good" He
has demonstrated that one man alone can do a
great deal for the civic pride and energy of a
city.
In whatever business he engages for him
self, his countless number OF friends will give
him their best wishes Good luck TO him.

Rehoboth had fuss and feathers. It
was her biggest day In a lifetime. The

feathers were worn by tin Indians.

paint with feathers. A little more

IN AFRICA.

@ TRANCE, indeed, arc some of the reports

Former President Roosevelt. One day he has
hung up his rifle and taken up his pen, and the
next day he is in a furious combat with hippo
potamus maleiactors, but he puts them TO rout
with as little trouble as he stirred the bulls and
bears in Wall Street. How the game of Wall
Street will tremble when the conqueror of the
African wild animals returns.
We had assumed that the former President
was facing danger and possible disaster as
means Of recreation We thought he was weary
OF the trials and vexations of official life, that
for a short time he was TO be as a boy out of
school needless and careless of what was hap
pening in every day affairs But as Mr.. Harri-
man cannot throw off the thrills OF business even
when ordered 20 do so by his physician, so the
ex-President it seems, cannot give up thoughts
for the moment of home folks. For amid the
roar of the man-eating lions sounding in his
ears the ex-President abandoned his rifle, took
up his pen or his typewriter and began to roar
with the alphabet He dropped the exciting
African sport for a moment and engaged in
magazine writing, in putting his thoughts on
paper for the edhcation of Americans who arc
in America We must believe, then, that the
eN-President has found his true occupation
that of a writer and journalist because strong
must be that instinct which forces a man under
such circumstances to drop rife for pen. Per
haps the eX-President may have thought that
the best way to knock out the lions would be
to hurl a red hot Outlook editorial at them.
1t does not seem, however, that the ex-Prcs-
ident is in Africa merely for recreation If he
were he could not be bothered by thoughts ol
magazines or editorial diatribes He is
combining business with pleasure and the busi-
ness instinct according to the correspondent
who is supposed TO be near, got the better
