REMARKS ON THE ABOVE.
ITO oVe Who read this story 1t may be neces-
sary to mention that Bembry proved an alibi
day the murder was committed. The above also
contradicts many Of Wright's previous state
ments about the murder. He has heretofore
clears Margaret and brings . new character on
| the scene, one Oscar. He also says Bembry
stuck the spade into barrel Of mortar in the
bered that the weather was extremely cold and
everything Of fluid semi fluid nature was

hardly credible unless the mortar had been
| thawed for the purpose. The suggestion that
Bembry put the blood in the house Is hardly
more reasonable than the mortar story.l

What I Know About Trimming

Since the days of our ~grandmothers, there has
never been such a rage for trimmings upon ladies'
dresses and suits as this year; and the most popu-
lar is the SO called French fold, made from bias,
10 trim dresses at the present day without the vari-
Gus Sewing Machine attachments would be an i'm
possibility.
Ayoung man in Chicago has just invented an
improvement for all Sewing Machines, with which
to put on the fold as fast and as easily as an ordl-
nary hem can be made. The same implement is
also a practical Binder and good Hemmer.
1t is being made and sold by the Leslie Rufier
company, and is a valuable addition to the Sewing
8aeane. 1t is called Koni;ngs French trimmer,
and I'LL be sold by all Sewing Machine Agents

the people of Brandywine. (about s,200) or

live nearer to Wilmington than to New Castle.
The people of White Clay Creek have little
choice, a. to distance, but they have direct and
convenient railway communication with VII
m'ngton, and oAly very infrequent and indirect
one with New Castle. These members, being
added together, will make nearly fifty thousand
people, who would be best served with the
Courts here.
But there are, also, many persons in New Cas-
tie Hundred to whom Wilmington is nearer and
more convenient, and to all the population OF
Pencader, Red Lion, st. Georges and Appoquin-
inink, a trip to Wilmington is as easy by rail,
and within triie as cheap, as to New Castle,
while the facilities for the transaction of general
Business are here vastly greater. 1t is safe to
say that seyenty-fve per cent. of the twenty
thousand people who are rather nearer to New
Castle than to Wilmington would be more con
veuienced in the aggregate BY coming here.
Why not, then, make the change The Court
House at New Castle is old, inconvenient and
dilapidAted. It has become too small for the
proper accommodation Of those who are obliged
tooecupy it. The Grand Jury, on at least one
occasion, returned it a. public nuisance. A
new building will very soon have to be provided.
