Nearly Arrested.

Harry Yerger, at 405 Shipley street,
WAS nearly arrested this morning for
having such an immense stock Of frames
and mouldings in front Of his store. So
to save himself he has made the prices
40 low that anybody can reach them.
Frames usually sold at 30 cents arc now
38 cents, and all others down In pro-
portion. He can prove that he has the
largest stock In the State of Delaware,
and can sell cheaper than any other
house because he buys for the cash
down and direct from the manufac.
turers. Call and get his prices, that Is
all he asks, and compare with Others.

The REPUBLICAN Office On Saturday
very much grieved over the editorial
article, which, she thought, cast seri.
ous reflections upon her in respect to
the way she brought up her children.
In speaking Of the trouble she stated
that her boy was standing in the door.

when he was roughly ordered away.
pom refusing to vacate Immediately,
Mr.. Tindall started after him but fird.
ing that the boy was not to be caught,

the boy picked up brick and threw it
At Mr.. Tindall, striking him heavy
blow In the breast. The next day Mr..
Tindall captured the boy and gave him
q severe thrashing, hence the arrest
Mrs. Hodges also stated that several of
the neighbOrs also Witnessed the trans.
action, and that II they had not inter.
fered the boy would have been severely
injured.
In reference to the performance of her
duties as a mother she said she endeav-
ors to bring her children up in a
proper manner, and II her boy had been
guilty OF any wrong towards Mr.. Tin.
dali she would have punished him &c.
verely If she had been told of his
offence.
She further stated that her boy had
never taken piece of wood from the
buildings. and that he was guilty of no
bad conduct while on Mr.. Tiudall's
prem ises until attacked by that gentle

justifiable In releasing Mr.. Tindall,
without imposing fine, for the reason
that he was guilty Of an unjustified as.

When shown that tho newspaper ar
ticle referred to the actions OF all bad
boys in the city, In general terms and
made but slight allusion to her child,
without mentioning any names. her
feelings were somewhat pac flied, as far
as the paper was concerned, but she
still maintained that Mr.. Tindall had
no right to chastise her child, and that
she could bring number of witnesses
to prove that the boy WAS grossly as.
saulted without being guilty of the
charges made by Mr.. Tindall.
