THE SENATORSHIP.

From The Dover index.
In Kent county. and we believe in
Sussex county the sentiment favor
ing a United States Senator from the
lower counties, Which is general
among Democratic voters. seems to
be chrystalized into a determined eff
fort to secure the election of an able
and well qualified Democrat from
Kent county for that position. Demo-
cratic members OF the Legislature are
hearing and feeling the effect of this
sentiment and II the views of the
voters control. some lower county man
will be chosen. The party in Kent
and Sussex was never more enthusiast
tic and hopeful than now. and there
should be no discord or grave mistake
to mar this. We believe the. election
of Mr. Willard Salisbury, the VIII
mington aspirant. would split the
party wide open and two years from
now Il would be in such a demoralized
and discredited condition that the Re-
| puhlicans, even without their usual
financial aid, would be able to regain
control in Kent and Sussex counties
We regret that it is necessary to be
so frank and emphatic, but the fac
! that there are Democrats, In the lower
counties who either do not see the
matter as it really is, or, seeing, con
ceal the facts from those members o
the Legislature whom they attempt
to advice and influence, makes plaiI
] speaking necessary. We place tn,
State and the Democratic party above
any man or any set of men and theil
ambition: We want the Democratic
officers elected at the recent election
to so wisely and so honestly perform
their duties that the confidence OF tn
voters. which the party seems now Il
possess. will increase and not dimin
ish. The Democratic members Of tn
Legislature have I'm their power e
contribute heavily'to that end vii
they do &C. or will they fail as Demo
cratic Legislatures have often done II
the past and leave the party 20 pa.
the penalty and the State to bear tin
disgrace?

SCHOOL GIRLS AND BRACELETS.
The Wayfarer notices that the fac
ulty of the high schools in Camden,
\. j., has issued an edict that in flu
ture no girl student shall wear more
than two bracelets when at school and
that one bracelet shall be on each arm
The ruling was brought about by an
abuse of the bracelet-wearing prac-
tice and the noise made by the brace
let's iingling against each other.
Camden is in no sense alone in this
bracelet-wearing habit. The Wayfarer
knows one high school girl here who
wears eight bracelets at one time n
school and signs for more. There ara
many who wear four or five at one
time. And yet nothing has been
heard in this city OF an edict by the
Board Of Education limiting the num-
Der to two.
The bracelet is an old and honor
able article for personal adornment.
Centuries ago it was worn by both
the Book Of Genesis. for instance
Bible students doubtless will recall
that i'm II Samuel il is related how
the Amalekite removed a bracelet, or
armlet from the arm of the dead Saul,
and took it and the other regalia 10
David. The Egyptian kings wore
bracelets, or armlets and so did the
Fgyptian women. Authorities on the
LOFT hor -
all times been much in use among
barharic nations, and the women fire.
uuently wear several on the same
arm. This species of personal orna-
ment was exceedingly common in
Europe in prehistoric times" The
bracelets of the Bronze Age were
either of gold or bronze, silver being
then unknown. Silver bracelets OF
great elegance. formed of plated and
intertwisted strands of silver were,
and plain penannular hoops, round or
lozenge shaped i'm section and taper
ing to the extremities, became COM
mon towards the close of the pagan
period. The late Celtic period in Bri-
tan was characterized by serpent
shaped bracelets and massive arm
lets. with projecting ornaments OF
solid branze and perforations filed
with enamel In the Middle Ages
bracelets we're not so popular in Eu-
rope, but the custom prevailed in full
force i'm the Eastern nations Many
OF the types that were common in
Europe In prehistoric times still are
worn in Central Asia. Therefore, the
Wilmington High School girls who
wear four. FIVE, six, seven, or even
eight bracelets at a time may feel
sure that they are not breaking but
merely perpetuating, fad Of prehis-
toric times.

HEN ACCUSES NEGRO OF SET
TING FIRE TO BUILDING

Forsyth, Ga, June Because a
hen belonging to r. S. Holland, sher-
if of Monroe county, laid an egg in
the Jail yesterday there is consterna-
ton among the negroes in Forsyth.
After disastrous fire had destroyed
the Forsyth hotel and two residences,
Bernice Bell, negro youth, who had
been employed as a bellboy and had
been discharged by the hotel manager,
was arrested and placed in the Jail,
charged with setting fire to the hotel.
Now comes the hen and lays an egg
with a peculiar letter tracing on the
she'll reading: "Bernice Bell burned
the hotel"
At least that's what the sheriff and
lot of other folks who have seen the
egg say. And the egg was found By
the sheriff's wife.
