A WONDERFUL WAR HISTORY

THE TRANSCRIPT wishes to call the at
tention of all lis readers to the work The
Civil War Through The Camera, " hich
is issued weekly IN the daily Every EveL-
ing and now being sold for 10 cents a
number, each of the Is number contain.
ing "a pages with pictures of battles, sold
iers and officers, military equipments,
camps, forts, aud war scenes of every de-
scription, even of battles actually being
fought when the picture was taken, all
with the stories and accounts well told and
explained in print from the pen OF Pre-
fessor ElsUr.
These photographs are the work OF a
man named Brady who at great risk to
his own life and at a cost of many thout-
ands of dollars followed the armies during
the whole war and took his remark BILE
series of views on the spot, after amid the
smoke and rear of battle, and in danger
of being himself struck by some of the
flying missiles. This gives to his pictures
a life like character and graphic interest
they could not otherwise possess.
Once while Brady was taking battle
picture, the Confederate officer mistaking
the gil stening of the sun on his camera
for piece of artillery, opened fire on the
big clumsy affair, but luckily without
''putting it out OF aCtiUn!,
These wonderful pictures cost Mr..
Brady big fortune, over $50, 10000, and
bankrupted him. A number of years
after the war, the plates in some manner
were lost and have only rec ntly been
discovered and given to he public.
Every scholar IN the public schools of
Delaware, should own this splendid work
which is being published for the benefit

valuable work and knows from its own
examination that it does possess a high
value as a history, both for young and
old, because it teaches chiefly through

FIGHT In DEMOCRATIC RANKS
Salisbury People Make the Charge
That Kenny is Interfering

Judging from recent developments
within the ranks of the Democratic party,
the fight between the Salisbury and Ken
ney factions in the coming campaign is
going to be for blood.
There have been reports for some time
that the Kenney faction would attempt
to blood any move to send Willard Sanls
bury to the United States Senate in case
the Democrats should get control of the
next Legislature, and now it is claimed
by Salisbury Democrats that former
Senator Kinney is taking hand in the
gubernatoriaI fight.
According to the story which is arout-
ing the ire of some of the Democrats,
Mr.. Kenney recently sent letter to a
friend OF Senator Thomas NJ. M Monaghan
of Wilmington, who is a candidate for
gubernatorial honors, saving that i'll
view of the fact that Kent county had
some men seeking the honor, he would
not be able to take sny active part in the
contest so far as any of the New Castle
county candidates are concerned.
Despite this letter, however, some of
the friends of Senator Monaghan have
heard that the former United States Sena
tor sent a letter to General Theodore
Armstrong, another gubernatorial eaE-
didate, pledging him his support.
This information has some Of the llcal
Democrats agtated, and friends of Mr..
Salisbury say that in the fight which
must necessarily follow the Kenney fac
ton is going to be routed. II is under
stood that some of Il e Democrats of this
country are ADVERSE to prrc' pitatiI g a
fight in year when Democratic chances
for victory seem good to them, but others
contend that the fight must be fought to a
finish and they are anxious TO see it decis-
i've. Some OF the Salisbury Democrats
say they are not uncertain as to the out
come, and that the strength Of Mr.. Sauls-
bury is now such that his followers will
route the Kenney faction without much
trouble.
At a meeting of the Referendum
League of Delaware it was unanimously
decided to send letter to candidates on
all tickets in this state asking them if
they favor progressive measures.

SUSSEX FARMER DISAPPEARS

SEAF.RD, July 2l-WIlliam B. Allen, a
Young farmer OF Northwest Fork hundred
came to Set Ird OIL Saturday night, July,
Is, and disappeared as mysteriously as if
the ground had opened up and swallowed
him. After vainly searching for his son
since that time, and now firmly cnnvinc-
ed that his boy has met with foul play,
Minos E. Allen of Northwest Fork yester-
day communicated the facts in the case
to Magistrate Stengle and requested the
assistance OF the state authorities in the
search he is making The magistrate at
once took the matter up with Deputy
Attorney General Frank Nj. Jones of
Georgetown, who, it is stated, has given
assurance of all the assistance possible
either in locating the missing man or de-
termining beyond a doubt whether or
not he is dead.
The yourg m an was last seen alive in
Sealord at an early hour Sunday morning
shorty before the arrival of the train
going north, leaving here at about 1.30 p
m. Since that tine his father has heard
nothing from him, bCt in the search he
has been conducting he has made die
coveries which cause him to believe, an
a, 2, that his son has been murdered.
Young Allen, whose enlistment in the
United States army expired last fall, has
been making his home with his father
Minos E Allen. since that time. Being
of a rather industrious nature and not
caring to remain at bone in idleness, he
secured a small farm near Bridgeville the
frat Of the wear and SO well has he work
ed that at the present time there is not a
more productive piece of land in the
neighborh hood His father states that
there is no reason that he can think of
why bis son should leave, especially as
he has large acreage in canteloupes a.
most ready for shipping, and that it is
hardly likely that he would leave at this
time without securing some one to look
after his crops.
