cry heard now on the streets of Mil

however, for these conservative citI-
zens to praise, Their criticisms will
be given after longer acquaintance.
Peaches are king in this section of
Delaware, and during the cool weather
OF the past two weeks some Of the
largest growers have experienced
"more pangs than wars or women
have" for every night the mercury
has gone nearly to the danger point.
In fact, there have been some slight
frosts, but all the farmers agree that
the favorite fruit is unhurt. Peaches
are now as large as cherries and the
trees are very full-so full that fully
three-fourths must fall. This will
happen in about two weeks and will
be known as the "June fall"
Prospect are unusually good for a
heavy yield of strawberries, which
will begin to ripen here the last of
this week. Pears and apples have been
injured 10 some extent by spring
frosts.
The newly-organizsd Y. w. @. T.
U. held a strawberry festival in the
library rooms last night. Two charm
ing young ladies presided at each table.
Frederick had a slight fire on Mon

grain.

know your dealer, you're
thinking of money wasted on
a worthless article. For
worthless it will be unless

Walk in our upholstering

you object to anything you

rest to us, we'll turn you out
a good suit, one started right

of the evening papers from Whining
ton is eagerly looked for, and every
item of news regarding the municipal
contest in your city is holly debated
by the corner post politicians and the
more sedate manipul tors who abide in

"cussing" that Democrats in Whining

division iu their ranks, and more es-
pecially hazard the experiment of
stringent election law. Don't yer

site side. The price realized was not

were obtainad at the sale Of real estate
of the late Judge Wootten. The sale
ought to have realized 800 per acre,
