"HE CAN MAKE NO DEAL»
Under the above caption the Evening
Journal refers to the political prospects
or J. Edward Addicks in the following
manner:
intimatioo comes from the
Union Republican camp that if the]
Regular Republicans will agree to the
deal Addicks will take one of the seua
towhlpe for himself and give the Regu
tara the other. This is "counting!
Chickens before they are hatched," but J
let it go at that. J
Does Mr. Addicks lone sight of the
feet that it is the cardinal principle of
the Regular Republicans that he mnat

elans expect Republicans to defeat Ad
dicks merely for tbeir benefit? The
motive must be higher on the part of
the Evening Journal. Republicans
have a higher motive—the honor of the
State and their party. They eould
have had victory with Addicks as die*
I tator yean ago. They could have vie
I tory now with Addicks out of it—and
**>y Republicans who bave »offered
every political ill for so long tic tbeir
fsithand political fortune to a man
who says it is "Addicks or nobody," is
| pgjj comprehension—a man who with
only four votes telegraphed Senator
Washburn. "I'll sink the paity or be
senator."
. But as we say the Journal has no as
as | garance that Addicks cannot deal,
J Evidently Addicks has made deals.
Does the Journal remember that last
winter three men elected as Democrats
voted for Addicks? Does tbs Journal
recall tbs fact that three men elected
of I u Republicans opposed to Addicks
I voted for him? These facts give hope
to the Union Republicans. Is it sur
. I prising that it does? Moreover there
is not "a united Democracy" as the
Journal states. Not on financial
I views, which we are not discussing,
j nor on Senatorial candidates. Does
the Journal know that one of the most
reliable of the Kent county papers has
charged an alliance between Addicks
gnd g for the
I Senate? Does the Journal know ail
I this and yet assert—'tis assertion only
1 00 its part-that Addicks may not
deal? Certainly the Journal would
not lull the fears of the people with
false hope.
But look further. According to the
I Wilmington Sun, an Addicks organ,
| Addicks controlled one man in the
:
i Assembly of 1889 though when the
; I Republicans of the Assembly were elec«
I ted Addicks did not know one man in

Wbat might have been a vary serious
runaway accident occured on the hill Sun
day evening. Mr John Bignear waa driv
ing a pair of horses to a large carriage over
the Causeway when they took fright at a
bicycle and ran away. Mr. Bignear loat
control of the horses and as they came np
the hill some of the harness became disar
ranged causing them to turn abruptly up
the steep bank on the left. The carriage
overturned and the horses broke a way. All
Mr. Bignear'a family were with him bat
fortunately none of them were hart except
ing Mis. Bignear and she very slightly. A
crowd collected around the broken carriage
in a few minutes, rendering all the aasJs
tance necessary. Mr. Bignear felt very
thankftil that they escaped so fortunately.
Delaware Llghtcap, the little eon of Mr.
and Mrs. Harry Llghtcap, was stunned by
lightning daring the terrific storm last Fri
day night. He was unconscious for about
15 minutes and his mother and father were
badly frightened. Mr. Ligbtcap's grand
mother, Mrs- Lathem, was also affected.
The lightning did not strike the house and
they are at a loss to understand why they
were stunned.
Mr. William Baker finished canning corn
last Saturday. Early Monday morning
wagon loads of the Bohemians and their
possessions passed through town for Middle
town, en ronte for tbeir homes in Balti
more. The season has been a little shorter
than last year, notwithstanding the fact
that more work has been done. Mr. Baker
left on Tneeday afternoon.
The weather this week has been all that
could be desired consequently the house
cleaning fever is abroad, in the land. Mr.
George W. Davis has been one of the first
to snocumb and a glance in bis store shows
•very thing so bright and shiny they look
like new.
The man with a gun is numerous just
now as the reed and rail bird season is on.
The toothsome dainties are rare, however,
as there have been ae yet no big tides to
bring them in on the marshes.
Dr. Joseph Carrow expects to open a drag
store here in a few weeks. Odessa has
been without a drag store for several
months and the people have felt the need
of one very much.
The Misses Enos are guests of Philadel-|
phis friends.
Miss Amelie Yandegrift is being enter-1
tained by Wilmington friends.
Miss Cornelia Townsend is the guest of!
Wilmington relatives.
Mrs. Elisabeth Morris is spending a few |
weeks with Wilmington friends.

Mrs Adelaida Mclntire and family have I
returned to tbeir home in the Quaker City. !
They have been occupying the Polk man- I
lion on High street for several months and J
have been quite an acquisition to Od<
society. The Messrs Mclntire laid out the
Golf Links and initiated the young people
into the mysteries of that popular game.
They will be very much missed by their
many friends and it is hoped they will ra
turn f3 Odessa next summer.

In the year ended December 31, 1898,
there were 2,2X9 miles of railroad built in
the United States, bringing the mileage of
completed steam roads np to 186,810 miles.
8ome 980 miles were abandoned, made into
side treck or equipped with electricity. The
gross earnings were 81,249,500,000; the net
earnings $300,000,000. There was other rev
enue of $104,000,000, bringing total avail
able revenue to $404,000,000. Bonds receiv
ed interest to the amount of $237,000,000,
and $85,000,000 went to dividends. The
dividend was about one and two-thirds per
cent. Both freight snd passenger rates

Took six hours for the veterans to pass the reviewing stand during
the parade, and the general opinion is that the march was rapid for a
parade of that kind.
Yet twice as many thousands enter this store in a day, with com
fort, and shop and look to their hearts' content The splendid specta
de and the events of last week offer other interesting comparisons—
There were three thousand school children in the grand chorus.
The store's employes number almost as many a gain —five thou
sand five hundred in the busy season.
About nine thousand were fed at Camp Sexton—the tented dty in
Fairmount Park has been a great sight.
The day of the parade our regular Restaurant and Tea Room fed
very nearly seven thousand five hundred—and prepared the
dishes to individual order.
Three hundred thousand visitors came to town last week. Distin
guished men commented on the splendid way m which Philadelphia
handles crowds. Why, we are used to crowds—the store seems to be
of India rubber, some folks say. Not a bit of it—but it is a pile of safe
staunchness that with the biggest throngs is pleasant. There are so many
by-paths of interest and beauty that main thoroughfares are quickly
drained, and with four street sides almost any aisle will wind one around
to anexit. t
Facts look different when stood up in a row with realized facts to
measure by, and even home folks appreciate their store the more for
knowing how well prepared it is to represent the city's hospitality. Our
welcome is as big as the store. You'll be here to the Exposition, of
course? Make this store your headquarters. j

' It will interest viators to^know something of this China business.
So important has it grown that we keep a permanent buying force abroad
among the great potteries, besides our home staff which is represented
abroad about half of the year.
Each September we hold a great sale of china, glass and art pieces.
It is m ad e up of special lots chosen from the mass pushed to sale be
cause of its beauty. Then, too, potteries take our orders for lots made
up as they have spare time. The result—for your enjoyment in these
great September sales, is •
saving of a fourth to a half from usual prices
This applies to the inexpensive pieces for kitchen and every-day use and
to the more elaborate and beautiful things as well.

MEN'S SHOES THAT WEAR A YEAR

Shoes, black and winter russet, that will last a year without break or rip
in the upper. For a shortcoming, we give you a brand new pair. The
eoles are the best we have ever known, but while they will give immense
wear, we do not guarantee them for a year—their endurance depends
«pon the way you uae them.
These shoes we shall sell at $3.50 a pair.
We have the same make with uppers of kidskin and enameled
leather. Best we know how to get, but no telling how long they will
wear—we shall know enough to guarantee them by-and-bye.
Stocks in hand are fairly large, but may not be equal to the instant

Dewey is perhaps the beet small swords-1,
man among the senior officers of the navy,
indeed the best in the service, excepting
possibly Lieutenant Commander Lucien
Young, whose skill with the colichmarde,
or three-cornered dueling sword, is a mat-1
ter of note all through the service. Stand-1
ing about 5 feet, 81 or ten lithe, and with a
