The last edition of the London Week
Jytklw is published on Sunday, morn
ing. It comes nearer to the Sunday
edition of a New York paper than any
published in England. Mr. Storey, M.
P.. tor Sunderland, is the chief mana
ger and controller of the paper.
The latest Virginia plan is for Sena
tor Mahone to run for Governor this
year, with John S. Wise as his mate
for Lieutenant-Governor. If this com
bination is sucessful Mahone is to re
turn to the Senate and Wise is to be
come Governor of the Old Dominion.
Mr. Henry George's latest recruit is
Mr. Chamberlain's, president of the
Board of Trade and a member of Mr.'
Gladstone's Cabinet. Mr. Chamber
lam's last speech contains the following
significant sentence: "The present
land system is based on robbery, and
the community is entitled to restitution
and redress."
Chicago received from licenses last
year the sum of $1,600,000, an excess
of $1 000.000 over any preceding year.
Of the amount stated $1,400,000 came
from saloon licenses alone, as a result
of the operation ot the high license law ;
and this represents only eights months,
the law oat having gone into effect un
til May 1

Three great musical festivals will be
held in the provinces in England this
yearthat at Birmingham at the latter
end of August, one at Hereford in
September, and another at Bristol later

new works by Dvorak, Mackenzie,
Stanford, Co wen, Anderton and Prout
The Earl of Avlesford, recently de
ceased at Big Spring. Texas, was only
36 years old. He was of an old stock,
and left two daughters. He belonged
to the set of the Prince of Wales, and
had a miserable marital experience.
When his wife eloped with the present
degenerate Duke of Marlborough, the
Earl sought solace and has found death
in the wilds of America.
Lord Ross more, the Orange cham
pion, has been compelled to part with
his racing stud. He married the
daughter of Mr. Nay lor. the inheritor
of an immense Liverpool fortune. Mr.
Nay lor has no son, and the marriage
would be a great thing for Lord Ross
more if his lather-in law approved of
him, but it is understood that he dis
tinctly does not.
The translation of the "Arabian
Nights" by Capt. Burton, the explorer,
will probably be published in part next
Spring. No passages will be suppress,
ed, as the book is specially intended
for students and scholars. It will be
obtainable only of Capt. Burton,
Trieste, Austria. Capt. Burton has
been 32 years at work on it. The sdo
ctal aim kept in view is to reproduce
the book as originally written.
The editor of the Corydon, Iowa
Times, Mr. T. M. Casad, says that bis

cation of St. Jacobs Oil. the great pain,
reliver, cored it completely without
leaving a mark. He was himself enrod
of a torturing pain in the side by two
applications.

The case ot Louisa Allen, colored, as

my, counsel for defendant, it was con
tinued until 11 o'clock to-morrow morn
ing. The examination will be held in
the U.S. Court Room, over the Post
office. Chicken Thieves.
Capt. Edgar Williams had 11 very
fine chickens and a Newfoundland dog
stolen last night from his premises on
the corner of Sixth and Ann streets.
We can very well understand why the
thieves wanted the chickens, but are at
a loss to know why they should have
taken the dog. There is but little use in
trying to raise chickens in this city, and
we believe that it will be a useless effort
until some of these midnight prowling
hen roost robbers have been shot.
To Leave Us.
We very much regret to iesrn
that
Messrs. II. Brunhild & Bro. are to re-
r
move from thi3 city to Richmond. The
object is to consolidate the business as
much as possible they having now a
house in Richmond and one in Wil
mington. The business here, however,
will be kept up as a branch of the
fflichmond house. They have made
all of the preparations necessary and
will leave here in April.
It. the removal of Messrs. Henry and
Laopold Brunhild we lose two of our
most public spirited, liberal-minded and
enterprising citizens and it is a, loss
which we can ill afford at this time.
They have resided here for nearly
twenty years, having come to us soon
af er the close of the war, and by thrift,
energy and enterprise have built up a
large business in this city, ' They will
leave behind them many warm friends
who will part with them with great
regret.
The Problems of Education.
Hon. Carl Schurz, who delivered a
lecture on the above subject at the
Opera House last night, under the aus
pices of the Wilmington Library Asso
ciation, is a profound scholar, an astute
logician, a critical thinker and an an
alytical reasoner. This was nil made
entirely manifest in the way in which
he discussed the all-important "Prob
lems of Education" last night. There
was a good audience, although the in
clement weather undoubtedly prevent
ed many from attending who would
have gladly enjoyed the rich intellect
ual treat. There was nothing in his
lecture which called for any great exbi
tion of oratory, nor did the speaker
make any attempts in that direction.
It was the matter which was deeply
interesting and instructive and not the
manner ot delivery, as is too often the
case. His specchs always read well.
Forcible. logical incisive, argu
mentative and convincing, they
appear on the printed page as ex
cellent eOorts. In bis lecture last, night,
the distinguished speaker laid particu
lar stress upon the education of girls
for all the duties of womanly life and
pointed out many glaring mistakes
which have crept into the educational
system regarding this part cf our popu
lation. Ht as lis ened to with pro
found attention end delight by the
audience
Mr. Scburz was the guest of Rev. F.
W. E. Peschau during his stay in the
city, and yesterday afternoon was
called u pon by a com m ittee representing
our German fellow citizens, who,
through their Chairman, Mr. E
Peschau, invited him to be their guest
to-day. Mr. Scburz, however, on ac
count of previous engagements, was
compelled reluctantly to decline the in
vitation. Attractive and Useful.
The Brown Chemical Co., Baltimore.
Md., the owners of the celebrated
Brown's Iron Bitters, have just issued

Memorandum Book for men. These

a great many vaiuaoie ana inicrsting

The Tell-Tale.
With the aid of a pair of compasses
or a pencil and a bit of string, carefully
draw two concentric half-circles, that
is, from the same centre, and one
about half an inch within the other.
The size ot the design makes but little
difference, hut the result is more easily
seen if the diagram is as large as con
venient Divide this double hal-fcir.
cle into a number of compartments,
and in each place a letter of the alpha
bet, a numeral, or a came, as the fan
cy may dictated ; the object being that
there shall be no possible mistaking
of one compartment for another. Rale
straight tines from each compartment
to the common center. Now take a
small button a shoe button is as good
i - . r z 1 1 T
as any ana lasien a oil ot nne sits
thread about eight inches long to it,
making a knot in each end oi the
thread. Now let one of the party take
the thread by the end, and hold it eo
far above the figure that the button
shall hang about an inch acd a half
above the paper. Let him fix his mind
firmly upon one of the compartments
and then close his eyes. Very soon the
button will develop a pendulum-like
motion, and before long, generally in
about three minutes, it will begin to
move toward the compartment of
which the holder is thinking. It really
seems, at the first giance that the but
ton itself is influensed by the unconsci
ous exertion of will on the part of tbe
experimenter. But close investigation
will reveal the fact that the hand moves
wfth a slight tremulous motion, which,
being transmitted through the fine
thread, moves the button. Much
amusement can be had by putting the
names of people in the compartments
and then see of which one the cxperi
menter is thinking.
The great question of the day is:
"How to keep the Irish dynamite ex
citement in a manageable condition."
Easy enough. Give each man a bottle
of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup.

generous side; but In matters of shopping an
