AMONG the appointments made b,
Governor Wilson was that of Chief o.

Charles X. Bacon, the present in
cumbent, fs to be reappointed. II
noting this arrangement several paper
have referred to Mr.. Bacon as

objection to his holding on to the office
he ought to be classed where he properl,

got his first appointment at the hands Of
Republican Governor and was continued
by Governor Stokes. During the las
campaign, Bacon, who Is the New jersey
editor of the Philadelphia Record, accom-
panied Governor Wilson il his trip around
the state, and gave all aid possible to the
Democrats. Since the election he has

AS editor of the New Iersev denartmant

Many Wilmingtonians, who desire
TO sec a pushmobile race, probably
will have that desire gratifed on Mon
day afternoon, New Years Day, as a
race is being arranged for that time.
Some residents anxious to get the
pushmobile crews of Wilmington to-
gether in competition have offered
eight prizes for the racers. and it is
likely that Market street merchants
will add other prizes to get as many
entries as possible.
The pushmobile is an imitation
automobile, one boy riding in and
steering the machine, and the other
pushing it as he runs along. The
rider and pusher alternate at inter-
walls. These races have become ex-
ceedingly popular in Philadelphia, and

Gently. several hundred boys with
pushmobiles took part.
There are many pushmobiles in Will
mington, most of them the products
of boys ingenuity and mechanical
skill, instead of being bought CON-
plete. II is the ambition of the aver.
age boy to make his pushmobile as
long. low and rakish. like a real auto
mobile racer, as possible. OF course
all have their racing number:
