Revenue for the district comprising Delaware
Maryland and the District of Columbia. has resigned
hat clears the way for the appointment Of a Demo
cratic successor and it Is thought that President VIII
son will act quickly.
The interesting question is whether the Democratic
appointee viii be Alfred Raughey Delaware who is
backed by Senator Salisbury. former Congressman
Joshua w Miles, Of the Eastern Shore Of Maryland, who
is backed by the solid Maryland delegation.
The Marylanders express the utmost confidence that
they will win. That feeling shared by many persons
in Delaware. although most OF them quite naturally
think that Delaware should be appointed. In
fact most OF them have abandoned hope that Raugh-
ley will get the place.
Victory by the Maryland delegation would be a heavy
blow to the prestige Of Senator Salisbury He has
staked his power patronage getter upon this col

AS we have said before Delawareans who have no
use for Senator Salisbury and whose regard for
Raughey is not increased by the fact that he is

Delaware get the place. In the light of recent
fear that Salisbury and Raughley will be defeated
by the united Maryland delegation which is support

NEEpEp--A Nan TO pO THE wORk.

VA1 wish to remind those who are interested in the
" future Of Delaware College, and also those who
ought to be so interested. that two-thirds OF the
S1,000,000 endowment fund opened last year by the
Wesleyan University has been subscribed and that
second $100OOOO fund has been started Decision
has also been reached to spend about $lOOO00O for
buildings for the Institution. That shows how
they do things in Connecticut
The greatest need Of Delaware College today is

for It to get It never obtain proper financial

Why is it that those who have charge of the fund

by the experiences Of the Delaware Hospital and tho

"All Great Men Drink; I do"

Milwaukee, Wis, July 20.-Victor
L. Berger, a former Socialist con-
gresham, was a witness before the
State commission investigating condi-
tions here, Friday. He declared that
drink had nothing to do with prohibi-
tion and then electrified his hearers
by declaring that all great men drank.
He differed with Rose Perdue, who
declared that economics had nothing
to do with going wrong. Asked how
he defined prostitution, he said:
when woman sells her body for
dress, automobiles, anything"
IF l had my way no girl or boy
under twenty-one years would be per-
mitted to drink, and I am man to
take a drink" he said.
Miss Perdue, best known local So
cial worker and newspaper woman,
claimed parental neglect was one of
the greatest causes for girls taking
to the forbidden way, other causes be-
ing lack of knowledge and Of morals,
neglect of law, lack of respect of law,
maner of dress, ignorance of how to
dress, and freedom of barrooms,
palm gardens and cafes.
She said that housing conditions
had much to do with the downfall of
young girls.

SIX $4,000 PASTORS WANTED.
That's the Tip From a Presbyterian
Official.

1T is true that it is hard to get
good executives to fill the $4,000
positions, said the Rev. William H.
P. Roberts, clerk of the Presbyterian
church, today. Il know of six high
priced pastorates that have been va
cant for two years because men of
sufficient ability cannot be found to
fill them.
THE lack of good executives is
true in all departments of business
and all vocations. The thing that is
wanted both in church and State is
executive ability
Doctor Roberts was speaking apro-
pos of the statement of Alba B. John
son before the foreign federal rela-
tions commission that there are plen-
ty of $4,000 places, but a lack of
men to fill them-Philadel Pub
lie Ledger.

FIRMLY BELIEVES IN FAIRIES
Donegal Farmer Accepts Loss Of Saw
ings as a Warning.

Nobody ever drove the fairies out
of Ireland, and nobody ever will, for
that matter. The Emerald Isle is
sans snakes but not sans the "wee
folk" for the sturdy citizens of Don
egal yet will relate the doings Of the
sprites who reward good and punish
evil with quite as much avidity as
they did hundreds of years ago.
The little folks whom the more
stolid Britishers insist are but crea-
lures of Celtic Imagination, are pc
culiar elves. Few there are who have
seen them, and the few have done
so only when the moon was in the
right phase or on some holiday in the
elfdom when, the legend goes. the
fairies are visable to mortal eyes and
even may be captured if you but snip
their shadows.
"Auld sod"-Irish many of them
are firm in the faith that the wee
folk" forecast joys and sorrows and
that they keep away the wicked ban
shee and otherwise protect the house
hold of their favorites. When Michael
McFaul, a farmer of Clonmany, coun-
ty of Donegal, missed recently from
it's hiding place some $500 he had
saved as a preliminary to embarking
upon the sea of matrimony, he never
once doubted but that the incident
was a warning from wee folk" that
they did not look kindly upon his
suit.
The police, however, were less in
clined to the theory of elfish warn
ing and when a young woman en-
ployed at the McFaul household tried
in a neighboring village to cash some
large bank notes, she was arrested
and convicted Of the theft.
The McFauls refuse to accept the
loss in other than a philantropic
mood and still believe the little folks
of the wood chose that manner OF
expressing disapproval of a marriage
which would bring no happiness to
tha family.

SUNSET ON THE NILE.
Rowers Chant Weirdly as They Tug
at Oars.

AS we sat on the deck, beneath the
minaret Of the mosque, the skies
slowly turned from orange to lilac
and purple Of night, throwing a
strange pink light over the city
buildings, writes Archie Bell, in the
Cleveland Plain Dealer. The mino-
sa trees and date palms became black
and great white cranes, seemingly
knowing that their wings had an ap-
propriate background, circles over
our heads, over the deep azure river
and over the many white-sailed do
habeahs that were floating along in
the breezeless night, propelled by
rowers who were chanting weirdly as
they tugged at the oars.
Dimly, we could see the black
draped figures of numberless women
approach the rivers brink and We
know that the splashes in the water
were caused by the dropping of their
heavy jugs, which they twirl around
till they are filled, after which they
raise them laboriously to their heads
and skip away up the banks and dis
appear in the darkness of the night
The, sounds of the city ceased and
all was quiet. All but the plaintive
day of the piper who must have been
somewhere not far off on the bank OF
the river. 1t seemed that he was
playing the love song of Larbi OF
Beni-Mora. 1t was monotonous and
drowsy and invoked sleep. In the
morning before dawn l heard the
boys pulling the stake near my win
dow. 1 had fallen asleep to native
music, and now l was awakened by
their song. AS We started up the
river, the clarion call of the muezzin
rang out from the minaret. Fol-
good Mohammedans it means that a
new had begun-but for the in
fidel Americans, there were several
additional hours of sleep.
