table for dinner. A few movements
of the hand turn it into a dining car
or room where the toilet can be
made.
A message for Caleb S. Kenney,
son of R. R. Kenney of Dover, was
received late Tuesday afternoon, of
last week from G. C. Boggs, captain
corps of engineers of the United
States Army, of the Isthmian Pana-
ma Canal Commission, offering him
the position of engineer on the com
mission at a salary of 81 900 per
year and all expenses together with
transportation to the canal from
New York City. Upon receipt of
the message young Mr.. Kenney, who
is taking summer vacation, was
notified of the offer, which he at
once accepted and wired Captain
Boggs to that effect. The young
man passed his 21st birthday last
year and graduated with honors at
Lehigh University in June last. At
the university he was popular with
all classes and is a member of the
Chi Phi Fraternity of the Literary
Chapter. He is also a member of
the governing body of the students
of the university and of the Mask
and Wig Club.
William H. Booth, a successful
farmer of Cecil County, Nd, who
has had considerable success in re-
cent years at raising big crops of
corn, has a new variety of the maize
this season which he expects to
break all records regarding big
yields. He has only one acre of the
corn planted, having bought only
enough seed to plant that much
gound, paying So per bushel for it.
1t is known as Four Eared Corn, and
each stalk is expected to bear from
three to seven ears. According to
sworn statements, the corn from
which the seed was taken, yielded
1864 bushels per acre. Mr.. Booth
would not predict what would be his
yield but expects to break all records
in this section. In speaking about
the new variety of corn he said
that the only fault he could thus
far see with it was the enormous
height of the stalks some of then
being II to 13 feet. They would
therefore be more likely broken dOwr
by heavy wind than a variety no
so tall.

SWEEPING VICTORY FOR
DEMOCRATS OF WYOMING.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 19,-There
now appears to be no doubt as to the
outcome of the contest for state
treasurer and secretary of state.
For the former Wheedon. democrat,
appears to have a safe lead over
Baird, republican, while it is equally
certain that the lead of HouX, dem
ocrat, over Schnitger, republican,
cannot be overcome.
The democrats. then, elected their
governor, secretary of state, treasur-
er. superintendent OF public instruc
ton and one-half of the members of
the lower house of the legislature,
While the republicans elected the
state auditor, one-half Of the MEN,
bers OF the lower house, and have a
majority of eleven in the senate. 1t
was sweeping victory for the dem
ocrats, and the delayed returns only
serve to swell the majorities of the
victors.

There are numerous active and
receptive candidates, but the narrow
margin of democratic control leads
many to believe that the contest
will be long-drawn out. Among the
most active candidates are W. G..
