"THE JONAH" GIVEN
WITH GREAT SUCCESS
Performance May Be Re-
peated In June

Owing to the unusual success
of the three act comedy, "The
Jonah" recently given in the New
ark Opera House, under the di-
rection of Mrs. Herman Tyson, it
is planned to repeat the play dur
ing Commencement week in June.
The play, a clever little comedy,
had been worked up by the skill of
Mrs. Tyson, to the limit of its pos
sibilities. The characters were
portrayed with cleverness and
ability; and there was a smooth
ness and finish to the entire per-
formance which removed it far
from the usual amateur produc-
ton. Practically every seat in the
house was sold, and many who
found it impossible to attend the
one night performance are looking
forward to the repetition of the
play in June.
The action of the play takes
place in the living room of the Hill
dreth apartment. The caste in
cludes the fun-loving irrespons-
ible Miranda Ann, Miss Edna
Chalmers; the sweet and obliging
sister, Emily Hildreth, Miss Olive

How Wilmington Is
Cleaning The City

Wilmington has set aside this
week for cleaning up the city. A
calendar has been published in
all the newspapers, which urges
the citizens to observe each day
for specific purpose. Today was
"Dandelion Day" and thousands of
the persistent weed were torn from
the lawns of the city. Thursday is
set aside as Paint Day." Friday,
Back Yard Day." and Saturday
Vacant Lot Day" The follow
ing Cleanup Commandments"
have been recommended to the cit
izens of the city:
Love your neighbor's lot as you
do your own; but be sure to love
your own.
Don't plant tomato cans and
rubbish on unused land; their
fruits are withered civic pride.
Don't allow yourself or your city
to create dumps. Waste can be
made to pay for its own deStruc-
tion at a profit.
Don't allow tumbled- down build
ings to stand on valuable land;
they are financially wasteful; they
create filth, invite vice and are a
menace to life.
A fence that has ceased to be a
fence and has become an offense,
should be repaired or destroyed.
Unregulated advertising on un-
used land pays for the mainten-
ance of a public nuisance.
Two gardens are valuable ad-
juncts to education and recreation
They can be cultivated on an open
lot.
Let the children play on the un-
used land, so they may become
strong and keep out of the hands
Of the law.
Let not an inch of land be kept
in idleness. 1t has a Divine right
to bear fruit and flowers and ever
serve the highest interests of man.

Maud Baldwin of Philadelphia, in
her inspiring way, will enthus as

The convention is most FORUM
ate in having, as the representa-
tive of the international Associa-

Automobile Accident
Near Charlestown

Mortimer G. and Arnold Mayer
and S. G. Kempe, all of New York,
who left Baltimore last Tuesday,
homeward bound in an automobile,
approached too rapidly the bridge
on the public road which spans
the P. B. & w. R. R. tracks near
Charlestown and failing to make
the sharp turn at the entrance of
the bridge, their car smashed the
side rail and dropped 20 feet upon
the tracks below just as an ex-
press was approaching on the
curve. The engineer put on
brakes but the auto was struck and
battered. Arnold Mayer was bad
ly hurt about his back and injur-
ed internally, but Mortimer and
Kempe escaped with slighter in
juries. On Thursday Joseph Dor
man, Jack Bevan and George
Sample had a close call on the
Union avenue bridge over the rail-
road cut in Havre de Grace when
a gas pipe carried over the bridge
prevented their car from plung-
ing 20 feet upon the tracks below.
AS it was Bevan and Sample were
thrown IL feet and badly bruised
Worman claims that the car
struck loose board on the bridge
which another car going opposite

Efficiency AS Applied
To The Home
Display In Weller's Store

Il The business principles of eff
8ciency, conservation of energy,
economy, etc. as applied to the
home, have never been more for
kcibly demonstrated than in the
display at Weller's Ten Cent Store,
during this week, of the Hoosier
Kitchen Cabinet. No one seems
8inclined to dispute the statement
Sof the company that it is one of
the greatest labor-saving devices
yet invented for the housewives of
the world. The cabinet is really
concentrated convenience fact
ito which 100000 users testify. The
agent for the Hoosier Cabinet is

His offer is the cash price on an
easy payment plan. It is worthy
sof the careful investigation of
every housewife in the community.

BILL PROHIBITS !.
HIDING TOURISTS
From Monday Advertiser.)

Two bills have been introduced
in the senate, one by Senator
Desha, requiring that hotel keep
ers show their registers to the public
and see that the names of guests are
put on these registers, and one by
Senator Castle for the benefit of Mrs.
NJ. D. Abreu, widow Of the policeman
who was shot and killed while at
tempting the arrest Of an army desert
err near Diamond Head year and O.
half ago.
Desha's bill is born of the allegation
that Honolulu is not giving Hilo a
square deal in the matter of handling
tourists. Representatives of the HiIo
business men, Hilo prOmOtionists,
come to the capital to meet tourists
and tell them of the advantages of
paying visit to the Big Island where
the greatest active volcano in the
world is to be sent under the most
happy circumstances. They go to the
hotels, says Desha, to see what tour.
lists are registered, and, and some OF
the hotels hold out on them, either re-

registered. The idea, according to the
allegation, is that the Honolulu hotels
