It Is a French edition of the city of Liege, except that It is unfoitl- 1 fied. the old fortifications having been i transferred into pleasure grounds and! drives iu 1892. It has a lone miltiar. i shoulder to see a great forward step taken.

The suffragists in the East are all interested in the campaign in Ohio, as the winning of Ohio in November ill help the cause in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Massachusetts, where an amendment has passed one wson of the Legislature and will come before the Legislature of 1915. Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton, president of Ohio Equal Suffrage Association, writes that Ohio can be won, provided they have workers and money early, believing that $100 now will be worth more than six weeks from now. Most Ohio women in the field are receiving no salaries and many are paying their expenses. Has there ever been a people who have struggled so persistently for their liberty as the women of these United States? South Dakota is ripe for joining the nine States of the West that have been fair to women.

The Grand Army of the Republic, the stalwart wing of the Republican party, the Progressive Republicans, Socialist party, the Progressive party, Third party, Prohibitionist and many of the leading Democrats have given their endorsement. The two United States senators, Sterling and Crawford, are strong suffragists. South Dakota is fortunate in the class of women who are championing the suffrage cause. The officers are all home women, who in their home life have learned fhe need of the ballot and are making real sacrifices. And the leaders are finding that the best women of the State, together with the best men, are standing shoulder to Dr.

Cross has about completed arrangements for the opening of New Castle county rural schools. Dr. Wagner's statement is as follows: To school teachers and school principals: In the hope that all your preparations for the auspicious opening of school are complete, I add a few suggestions from the division of superintendence. Each tiacher and school room in the State is to be supplied with the following publications: 1. The New Country School.

A gift from The Youth's Companion. Suggestion. Use this for reading and reference by the pupils. Have it read aloud in school, at parents' meetings, etc. Make your school "A New Country School, 2.

A study of attendance of Delaware school children. Suggestion. County superintendents and teachers will study this pamphlet In teachers' meetings. Parts of it should be read and discussed in school, at public meetings, etc. Arouse your community to a sense of moral responsibility for good attendance.

3. Approved text-hook list. Suggestion. Keep this for use in ordering books. Leave it for your successor.

4. A new school register. Suggestion. Every teacher in the State is to keep this year's school record in a new register. Make all entries carefully, and fill all the blanks in the annual summary faithfully.

Leave the register In the school for the next teacher's help and guidance. 5. Copies of "Our Delaware." words and music. A copy for every child that reads print. Suggestion.

Have the children learn words and music by heart, to sing on all public occasions. Preserve the copies from year to year. These publications are sent to principals of town schools in quantity; each teacher in the school is to receive the outfit. Each teacher of a rural school will receive a set by mail. Hoping that these suggestions will help teachers to realize their wishes for "better schools," I sincerely wish for every teacher that best possession, namely thorough and daily enjoyment of his work, and remain, Faithfully yours.

TO II The Board of Health yesterday afternoon considered the Question of securing a "Pied Piper" to drive rodents in this city to their death. The subject was bro by Secretary Ellison who said that owing to the outbreak of the bubonic plague In New Orleans, the majority of eastern cities were exterminating rats. City Enginer Taylor said that an unusual number of rats had been noticed in and about the Zoo in North Brandywine Park. It was also learned that the rats were fed to other animals there, as many as 800 being killed there in one day. After hearing this the board instructed Secretary Ellison to ask the Park Commissioners to co-operate with the Health Board in exterminating the rats.

Members of the board are congrat-i ulating themselves on the small I number of garbage collecting com-! plaints received this year as compared with those of last year. The board states that they have the collection pretty well under hand, although they are collecting 25 per cent more curt loads a day as compared with the same time last year.

Store Open Tuesday and Saturday Evenings. 2.13 MARKET ST. "Woold You Pay $1.50 a Year We nave 1 ww 14 Big Handicap at Dayton to Usher In New Shooting Campaign TO COMPETE FOR AMATEUR HONORS DAYTON, Ohio, Sept 1. The Grand American Trapshooting Handicap, which begins a four-day programme here on September 8, with a i.reliminary on September 7. will have as a sort of "curtain raiser" on the preceding Saturday a match bhoot for the Hazard double target challenge trophy, the most elaborate fiize of the fport.

The Hazard trophy is valued at $750. The trophy has been held by Fred Gilbert, of Spirit Iowa, who won it at Wilmington, with a score of 183x200. Later, Fred G. Bills challenged Gilbert, and the two tried conclusions at Bradford, Pa. Again Gilbert was the victor, with a score of 180x200 a clean win ovei Bills's score of 15x200.

The conditions of the coming match call for 100 pairs or 200 targets (doubles). An innovation of the Grand American Handicap will be the barring of professionals from participation in any of the regular events. So stringent is the embargo on professionalism that entries cannot be made even for "targets only." Thib ruling will compel professionals to adopt a policy of "watchful waiting" as their only part in the G. A H. Special Shoot for Professionals.

However, practically every prominent professional in the United Slates will be present, and spectators ill see some sensational shooting done over traps especially installed for the use of representatives of gun, shell and powder concerns. Included in the all-star events will be a 100 single target match from sixteen yards, in which the oldest and youngest shooters will be pitted against each other. "Champion of champions" while this might appear to be a rather pretentious designation, it precisely describes a new trapshooting title hich will officially be known as "The National Amateur Championship," and will be competed for at the coming shoot. This all-champion shoot is to be a 100-target race between the winners of the Interstate Association's Amateur championship of forty or more States. In every caso the eligible had to show class in his State shoot to earn the right to the honor of competing for the national title.

Substitute for Peon Shooting. The average trapshooter will solemnly aver that there is "nothing just as good" as clay pigeon busting to be handed over the sporting counter, and then he will follow up the assertion with an array of more or less plausible evidence to back his claim. Proof that there is no substitute for trapshooting and no type of target, inanimate or living, to take the place of the tar saucer as a mark for demonstrations of skill with a firearm, is to be found in the fact that the National Shooting Society of Mexico, with headquarters in the capital of the late unlamented Hu-erta, has taken up trap-shooting. Due to the present universal censoring of everything Laving to do with international shooting events, no advice has been received as to whether Central Villa is a charter mem-tr of the new club or will keep in practice to make a hundred breaks of peons during the next revolution or the present one, if the "next" has already started. They Never Tome Bark.

A law of sports as immutable as "the laws of the Medes and the Persians" is: "They never come back." Trapshooting shows no exceptions to this rule, but the reason why a trap-sLooter never comes back is simple he never goes back. To settle any question in the matter, all that will be necessary will be to attend the Grand American Handicap, where on the firing line will be found many of the old guard of the grand army of clay bird busters. Among the veterans that will likely attend the big shootfest are: Tom A. Marshall, Ed Banks, W. R.

Crosby, Fred Gilbert and Rullo O. Hcikes, members of the Ail-American team that, invaded the British Isles in 1901 and vanquished the Britishers despite the fact that the Englishmen fired "both barrels" in successive attempts to bring down each clay target, while the Americans pulverized the saucers in much greater numbers, shooting but "one barrel." Last year there were 501 entries in the Grand American Handicap Event. It is predicted that 700 will shoot in it this year. Several Wil-mingtonians will be on hand, among them being, W. Coyne, T.
