THERE is dissatisfaction all ovel
the state of Delaware with the
period of holding school elections,
and it would seem that there are
good reasons from a local point Of
view, but from the fact that under
the present unit of school govern
nent it would be an impossibility to
arrange for a change which would
meet the approval of all districts in
the state by adopting time which
would be universal, it would appear
that the plan of having the school
elections in the rural districts at the
close of the school year in June, is
the very best possible. In the town
schools especially where the towns
are incorporated, it would be we'll
to have the school elections at the
time Of holding their municipal
elections, and that the school COM
missiOners should be elected by the
people at that time, but this would
not work well in the rural districts.
The school question is so complex
under our present antiquated law,
that it would be better to have an
entirely new school code, and that
can not come at this session
because of the impOssibility to form
a comprehensive law properly. |!
The School Commission should be
continued, or new one appointed
to cover this entire matter for action
by the next legislature.

STILL ANOTHER FALSE impress.
SION CORRECTED,

Mr.. Bauer. managing proprietor of
the Ohpheum theatre seems to be lab
oring under more than one false i'm
preston
First, he appears to be under the
impression, that none of our citizens
eyer labored under the impression
that he was contributing toward the
expense of my defense, in the Sunday
closing cases. Any time he names I
will lead him to a few people that
had that impression and convince him
that such impression did. really exist
Second, he seems to have taken my
statement in the Tribune of April 18th
as an affront; when in reality I merely
wished to exonerate him from any con-
rection with the management of the
Grand Theatre in its efforts to test tho
Sunday closing law.
In more than one way Mr.. Bauer has
led me to believe that he did not wish
to be connected with these test cases
in any way; such being the case
thought 1t my plain duty to exonerate
him by making the statement did
in the Tribune Of April IS.
What favors the Grand has ever ask.
ed of Mr.. Bauer that he could not
grant, were he ever so charitably in.
clined. l am in tptaI ignorance of.
Mr.. Bauer, has the Grand asked any
favor of you that it has not paid back
in like kind?
Has the Grand ever asked any favor
OF you that would cost you one red
cent?

Be At BIJ0U FRIDAY
THIS PLAY is CONSIDERED BY
CRITICS TO BE BEACH'S
MASTERPIECE.
Splendid Company Will Stage the Pro-
duction at the Capital City Tomor-
row Evening.


Friday evening one of the best
shows that has appeared in this city
for some months will occupy the cen
ter OF attraction at the Bijou Theater,
when Eugene Presbrey's dramatiza-
ton of Rex Beach's 1.-The Barrier" will
appear here for one night only. The
company which appears here is under
the direction of Klaw and Erlanger
and is one of the most capable COM
panies on the road. Miss Barham,
who portrays the character of Necia
the sweetheart of Capt. Berrill, was
chosen by both Mr. Beach and the
dramatist as a member OF this first
big road company. Mr.. Norval Nc
Gregor has been engaged to act the
part of Captain Burrell and these
two stars are receiving nothing but
the warmest words of commentator
and praise for the results of their ef-
forts wherever they have appeared.
"The Bookman" says of Rex Beach,
author of "The Barrier
Born in Michigan, Rex Beach went
to college in Florida, then published
his first book in New York. He was
nineteen when he went to Alaska,
about twenty-five when he came back.
In those six years he saw practically
everything there was to be seen in
the mining countries and not only with
his size and strength held his own,
and with his humorous good temper
has won extensive popularity.
