THE WEATHER—Forecast for to- day: Cloudy and falling temperature followed by the western cold wave. Sunday fair and decidedly colder and on Monday fair and cold. Wife Beaters. Brutes who beat their wives when drunk and expect their Wives to appeal to the courts in their behalf when they get into the meshes of the law deserve no consideration whatever at the hands of the courts, and if our Judges of the Town Court, will punish all wife beat- ers brought before them and all other Judges, will follow their example, Wife beating will become less popular. The readiness of wives to become for- giving when they see their brutal spouses in danger of going to prison, only puts a premium upon this sort of brutality. Every Wife beater should be punished to the full extent of the law, and if the penalty of whipping. which is still in vogue in Delaware, were added, the punishment would fit the’ crime more fully than at present. Punish the wife heaters to the full limits of the law. #4.. A Great lubilation. At the Home Market club barquet held in Boston in honor of McKinley’s election, among the many good and ‘ true things said nothing came nearer the point than the following little» out- burst of true eloquence that fell from the lips of that gallant soldier of the late war, General 0 0. Howard, whose headquarters tent in the Gettysburg cemetery, the Gaznrrs's editor, by his courtesy, shared during the fiercest and crucial battle of the war. He said sub- stantially : “What have you gained? You have gdned an executive to your satisfaction and will have an administration to your liking. You will have, after the fourth of next March, in that high office, to which every genuine. young American aspires a manly man of health and vigor—one who fears God and keeps his commandments as did Washington and Lincoln—one who loves his country better than his life and has faithfully devoted the years of his superb man- hood to her most important service.” ———————4§>——————— The Modern Pharisee. If Christ should come upon this earthin person once more, he would find many more Pharisees proportion- ate to the population than when he was here and denounced them for their sins of omisssion and commission. He would find them now, as of yore, occu- pying high seats in the synagogue, making broad their phylacteries, rob- bing widOWs’ houses and for a pretense making long prayers. He would find them making the outside of the platter so clean as to be radiant. while they are like unto ravening wolves. The modern Pharisee is no improve ment upon the ancient One although he may wear more fashionable cloth- ing and live in a more comforta- bly arranged house and dine from a much more Varied menu. Be still wears the odor of. sanctity, even if he doth not possess the substance; and most of his leisure time is spent in thanking God that he is not like other men. He believes in a Christ, but it is one dressed in purple and fine linen; one with whom he is on a perfect social and business equality, pay even a little su- prriur to, pr rhaps, as the vessel often the cunning potter who formed it. He believes in the cross of Calvary, but it is made of sandal wood, spiced and fragrant and gleaming with precious stones. He believes in the divme sacrifice, but with a well found- ed impression that it was rather hn ex- clusive circle, of which he is the central and much admired ornament. » He believes in the resurrection, but is almost entirely satisfied that its pow- er and glory will be exercised only over those whoSe wealth has enabled them to be laid away in costly mausoleums, much more grand and imposing than the average dwelling place of the living. He believes in a heaven, but its fea~ tures to his mind blend harmoniously with the swell receptions and banquets that he is in the habit of attending. So the modern Pharisee looks out upon the world and condemns it, and I’Ulbhiuf’s upon himself and gees that all is faint 7: 1/. He charges some poor widow 2 per cent. a month for a loan on her furni- ture, and is thorOughly satisfied that said widow is on the broad road'to hell because on a hot summer day she takes her children to the park instead of oc- cupying a back seat in his church, es- peciallyprepared for the poor by having no cushions on the seats. Six days in the week does he follow the devil as closely as he can without getting too near the penitentiary, and on the seventh day he sits in a cushioned pew and feels a glow of sweet and prec- ious peace surcharge his veins as a well paid past’or consigns to utter darkness those who cannot believe that it-was a creed and not a fatted calf upon which the prodigal son feasted.- He gives a thousand dollars to send the Bible to some alleged heathen 10,- 000 miles away, and buttons up his pocket with a frown when the beggar at his own gates holds out a gaunt and pleading hand. Such is the modern Pharisee, vainly mouthing things very dear to the hearts of humanity and casting disrepute by all his actions upon the cause of Him who said “I am meek and lowly.” + AM‘USEMENTS. McAuliffe and Greens. Another large audience greeted this pepular company at Hoyt’s Theatre last night. The play presented was “Through Russian Snows” and was without exception the best play yet pre- sented. This afternoon at the matinee “l‘he Black Flag” will be given, and their engagement closes to-night with "‘ The Strategist.” A Great Attraction. Manager Hoyt has booked for his theatre, next Monday and Tuesday eve- nings, the famous Cinamatograph and Torsiello’s United States Marine Band, from the United States flagship Tren- ton, together with it good company of specialists.

' The Turn of the Tide. liver Byronand Kate Byron will be the attraction at Hoyt’s Thursday December 3, presenting "The Turn of the Tide,” which is a m- mantic comedy drama written by David Higgins, author of the “Plunger.” It is full of strong hear‘, interest, and sparkling with comedy. o—p—--—— The Best for Children. “I believe Chamberlain’s ,Cough Remedy is. the best for children I ever used.
