LINCOLN DAY
OBSERVANCE
Memorial Made Notable by
Address on Life Of the
EmanCipatOr
NATIONAL C0LORS
ADD TO OCCASION

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER. Del, Feb. 14-Abraham
Lincoln's name and fame, his charity
and his affection. furnished a theme
for several orators in a joint session
of the Legislature yesterday after
noon to honor the anniversary OF the
martyred Presidents birth. Pleasing
music was a feature of the program,
too. The celebration demonstrated
that, Delaware has orators, and not a
few OF them. either, right among the
young men of the State. The orations
of Senator Louis A. DreXler and Rep
.resentative Everett c. johnson, mem-
bers of the Legislature, of Secretary
of State William T. Smithers and Of
former Judge Daniel o. Hastings were
of the lofty type. not only In thought
full preparation and eulogy of a truly
great man. but also in eloquence of
delivery. Judge Hastings and Mr..
Smithers in bygone years achieved
merited reputation as orators, and
Senator Drexler lately has made sew
eral eloquent addresses in the lower
counties. Yesterday brought Repre-
sentative Johnson to the fore as an
orator. He is young man, resident
of Pencader hundred in New Castle
/ county, a graduate of Delaware Col
| lege and editor Of the Newark Post.
1 His essay on the life and deeds Of
Lincoln was indeed a masterpiece, not
only i'm style and preparation, but
I'm manner of delivery. and Mr.. John
son was roundly congratulated. The
! general opinion, after following the
program of speeches and songs, was
that Delaware is by no means with
out men of forensic ability when such
as Secretary Smithers, Judge Hast
ings, Senator Drexler and Representa-
tive Johnson can respond as they did
yesterday. And this is not taking
into consideration. either, the many
other inspiring orators, particularly
in the legal profession today in this
State.
So large was the attendance that all
the available space in the House
chamber was occupied. Senator
Charles r. Miller in nominating Sen
ator Thomas NJ Monaghan to preside
recalled the historic incident that just
fifty years ago yesterday Abraham
Lincoln was chosen President by tho
electoral college
Rev. w. +. Dawson. chaplain Of the
; House. Senator Monaghan made q
few remarks eulogistic of Lincoln
and pointed to the lesson TO be
drawn from the rise Of the man by
indomitabe will and ambition to the
greatest heights Senator Monaghan
then called upon the double quartetti
to sing. The octette was composed
p Of James f. Hoffecker. Granville ?

Senator Carter said last March:

But | must forego further pursuit of

Postmaster General Meyer and his assistants,
and likewise has the approval of Postmaster
General Hitchcock 1t failed OF passage dur
ing the last Congress owing to lack of time

introduced the bill, which is now designated
Senate 6287 Second Session, Sixty-hrst Con-
gress. The Committee on Postoffices and
Postroads will favorably report the bill to the
Senate, and il should be enacted into law before
the close of this session. | believe not only
that it will increase efficiency, but that after
the expense Of installation is absorbed, II will
result in such economies in the administration
of the department and service as will ere long
wipe out the deficiency. In operating under IL
the department will be able with almost unerr-
ing certainty TO determine the actual cost OF
each service performed, thereby reaching
sound basis for legislation such as is neither
available nor obtanable under the present sys-
TEN.
Il deeply sympathize with the earnest de-
sire Of the department officials TO get rid Of
the deficiency they arc fated TO encounter each
year, but submit that the first real movement
toward that end must begin with the substitu-
tion Of a modern, up-to-date business orgsniza-
tion for the existing antiquated system, which
rests upon a few sections of law enacted in 1885,
supplemented by statutory fragments added
from time to time since that year"

Tuning Bells.

"What a beautiful tone that bell
hasr is often heard. There are few,
however, who know how a bell re-
ceives its joyful or solemn tones. All
bells after they are cast and finished
must go through a process Of tuning
the same as any other musical instru-
mcnt before they respond with a clear,
true tone. Every bell sounds five
notes, which must blend together in
order to produce perfect harmony. The
tuning of a bell is done by means Of
shaving thin bits from various parts
of the metal. 1t is as easy for an ex-
pert bell tuner to put q bell in tune
as it is for piano tuner to adjust his
instrument to perfect chords. At first
thought it would seem that a bell
would be ruined should a tuner shave
off too much at the last tuning, or the
fifth sound, but such is not the case.
He would, however, be obliged to be-
gin over, starting again with the first
tone and shaving the bell till it gave
forth It's harmonious sound at the fifth
tone.-Scientific American.

STAGE Snow.

In personal "reminiscences Of Hen
ry Irving" Bran Stoker let's his read
ers into the secret of how the snow
scene in THE Corsican Brothers" was
made SO effective:
All over the stage was a thick blan-
ket OF snow, white and glistening in
the winter sunrise-snow that lay so
thick that when the duelists, stripped
and armed, stood face to face they
each secured a frmer foothold by
clearing it away. OF many wonderful
effects this snow was perhaps the
strongest and most impressive of real
ity. The public could never Imagine
how it was done. 1t was salt-common
coarse salt-which was white in the
appointed light and glistened like real
snow. There were tons of it. A crowd
Of men stood ready in the wings with
little baggage trucks such as are now
used in the corridors of great hotels,
silent with rubber wheels. On them
were great wide mouthed sacks full of
salt. When the signal came they rush
ed in on all sides, each to his appoint
cd spot, and tumbled out his load
spreading it evenly with great wide
bladed wooden shovels."

The EiIiaI Chinamah.

Many examples of Chinese filial piety
strike the occidental reader as ridicu-

Lao Laitsu, which Mr.. r. E. Johnston
repeats In his "Lion and Dragon In
Northern China" Laos parents lived
to such extreme old age that he was
himself a toothless old man while
they were both still alive. "Conceiv-
ing it his duty to divert their atten-
ton from their weight of years and
approaching end, he dressed himself
up in the clothes of child and played
about in his parents, presence with
the object Of making them think they
were still young married couple con-
templating the innocent gambols OF
their infant SON."
A similar case is that Of Wang P'ou,
whose mother had an unconquerable
dread of thunder and lightning. When
she died she was buried in mountain
forest, and thereafter, when a violent
thunderstorm occurred, Wang Pou

and an old woodsman who was with
them broke his gunstock in some way
