FEAR TROUBLE
WITH SEAMEN
Situation In New York Criti-
cal and May be General
Strike
POLICE HAD TO QUELL
Fight AT MORGAN PIER
Rx The limited Press.

BY The United Press
NEW YORK. June 20-Police re-
serves we're massed on the river
fronts today in anticipation of real
rioting The action of the rank and
fle of the cooks. marine fremen,
stewards, men and seamens unions
unanimously adopting resolutions
which may result in a general strike
on all coast lines was believed to
presage trouble.
The situation is extremely critical.
Many Of the steamship lines have
strike breakers in reserve ready to
take the places of the men who walk
ed out and the police fear plenty Of
rioting.
To add to the seriousness Of the
situation, the longshoremen are also
dissatisfied. There are two independ-
ent organizations among the latter
class, but steps are on foot TO amalga-
mate. With a membership of $4,000.
the united union is then expected to
refuse TO handle freight to or from
vessels where strikebreakers are en-
ployed This will cause more trouble
and the docks Of the North and East
rivers are likely to resemble an armed
camp should the companies decide, as
was expected this morning, to defy
the unions.
Half a dozen strikebreakers we're
held up by strick pickets outside the
Morgan pier today and a free-for-all
fight followed, which required the
police reserves to settle.
State Mediator Michael Of Albany,
said that he and other officials OF the
States Department of Labor will
make a final effort this afternoon to
force a compromise.

NO MONEY FOR
THIS ROAD WORK
Brick Church Highway will
have to Await Next County
Budget

Commissioners Elliott. at the meeting
of the Levy Court today drew atten-
ton to the condition of the Brick
Church road in Christiana Hundred.
Bids for improving the road were re-
ceived some time ago but were re-
jected, being too high.
County Engineer Wilson said the
road could be built with excellent local
stone.
Mr.. Dennison did not know where
the county would get the money nee
essary to build the highway.
President Dayett said Mr.. Dennison
was right in believing that the money
should be in sight before starting work
on the road Mr.. Dennison said he
would like TO see the road built but
he favored waiting until the budget is
prepared.
A general discussion followed re-
garding the necessity of the road and
the question will come up later.
An allowance of $50 for each Of the
Wilmington Assessors for making the
mercantile assessment was granted.
A bill for a number vi cast iron pines
used on the Lancaster turnpike was
paid.
An error list for the years 1eOs-1O

Mad as Hattsr.

The phrase mad as a hatter' has no
reference to that respectable artist who

the Anglo-Saxon word "atter' ian ad.

used as a synonym for violent or ven.
omeus and is still used In that sense in
some parts Of England as well as in
this country. The phrase. therefore,
strictly means as ''venomous as a vi.

DON'T PULL OUT
The GRAY HAIRS
A Few Applications of a Simple Rem
edy Will Bring Back the Ma
tural Color.

"Pull out one gray hair and a doz-
en- will take it's place" is an old say
ing, which is to great extent true,
if no steps are taken to stop the
cause. When gray hairs appear it is
a sign that Nature needs assistance.
It is Natures call for help. Gray
hair, dull, lifeless hal, or hair thar
is falling out, is not necessarily a
sign of advancing age, for there are
thousands of elderly people with per-
feet heads of hair without a single
streak of gray. p
When gray hairs come, or when
the hair seems to be ljieless or dead,
some good, reliable hair-restoring
treatment should be resorted to at
once. Specialists say that one of the
best preparations to use is the old
fashioned sage tea which our
grandparents used. The best prepa-
ration of this kind is Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy, prepa-
ration of domestic sage and sulphur,
scientifically compounded with later
discovered hair tonics and stimulants,
the whole mixture being carefully
balanced and tested by experts.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is clean
and wholesome and perfectly harm
less. It refreshes dry parched hair,
removes dandruff and gradually re-
stores faded or gray hair to its ma
tural color.
Don't delay another minute. Start
using Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur at
once and see what difference few
days treatment. will make in your
hair
This preparation is offered to the
public at. fifty cents bottle, and is
recommended and sold By oil drug
gists. s.

FOR SUCCESS IN FOOTBALL
Instance Is Cited In YaIe-Prlnceton
Game Four Years Ago-"Uss
Your Own Brains"

The team that goes into a game
with only the coach's brain in it's head
stands only half a chance against the
eleven that carries it's own brain with
it as WELL" writes George Jean Nathan
in Harper's Weekly. He instances
the game between Princeton and Yale
four years ago, when, at the end OF
the first half, the score stood at ten
to nothing in favor of the orange and
black. Between the halves something
was happening in the dress1ng-room
of the eleven of New Haven. The Ell
team was being lectured by the men
who had been coaching it and de-
veloping it into a machine which,
they hoped, might plough it's way
through everything that stood be-
tween it and the victorious goal. The
something that happened there
caused the Yale eleven to score two
touch-downs in the second half and to
win the stubborn, uphill contest" The
most salient words Sanford shouted
at the blue team were. "Use your own
brains"

Had Enouuh Of Law,


A gentleman who is now general SUI
perintendent of railroad began life
by trying to practice law in a Missouri
village. One Of his first cases was be-
fore his father, who was justice Of
the peace. After a stormy wrangle be-
tween the young attorney and his ad-
versary the old gentleman decided the
case against his sons client. The young
man gave vent to some expressions Of
indignation, gathered up his books and
started to leave the room. His father
pushed his specs on to his forehead
and began mildly to lecture him, say
ing:
young man, do you expect to make
your living practicing law?"
The son, who had by this time reach
ed the door, shouted back as he re-
tired from the field:
mot before such blamed fool court
as this
He abandoned the law and engaged
