On Tuesday special meeting of the
Trustees of the College was held here
The meeting was to take action in
reference to the act of Congress for an
establishment of agricultural experiment
stations, to make the $4,000 appropri.
ated to this State available for Delaware
College.
The matter was thoroughly discussed
pro and con, and ii was decided to re-
establish the College on an agricultural
basis. Outside of this there was nothing
important done. Some Of the board
wanted to appoint director at once.
There was one application and lie makes
the modest demand Of $4,000 per year.
This was referred to the Committee on
Agriculture.
The next regular meeting will be held
in March, when matters will be finally
settled.
The following were present: Cover

Clay Pigeon.

On the 2sd, Wednesday, clay-pigeon
shooting contest took place at Home
wood Driving Park. The Maryland
team was composed of John McKane, r.
Montgomery, A. Deviney, VIM. Creswell,
Edward Strayhorn, and Robert McKane.
Delaware team: Chas. r. Il. Lewis, ].
W. Lumb, II. McKinsey, Harry Garrett,
W. Lumb, L. Homewood. Ninety-six
pigeons was shot on each side, but OF
this number the Maryland boys broke
thirty-three, while the Delawareans only
broke twenty-eight. The shooting was
remarkable poor, and those who have
formerly made good scores failed to
brake but few plates. We understand
that this is the fifth defeat the Delaware
team has suffered at the hands of the
Marylanders. Before long, however,
another contest will take place and then
we think the Delawareans will make a
better score. We are ashamed to pub
fish the score in full, as we know some
ofthe shooters would blush to see it.

Two Nights With Spirits

w. W. Dayton, gave two entertain
ments in Caskey Hall, one OH Saturday
evening and one on Monday evening.
The spiritual cabinet tricks were cleverly
executed. He was placed in chair, Sc
curely tied, and before the doors of the
cabinet could be closed, he touched them
on the head with spirit hands. lie ex-
planned all his tricks, and showed that
the sprits,-of which many believe as
sist-had nothing whatever to do with
him. The Professor being remarkably
quick, he had no trouble in executing his
many laughable tricks. The attendance
was good, and much amusement was af
forded.

Change in Railroads.

1t is generally known that change
will take place on the Newark and Ian
denberg Railroad, March LIST. The cen.
trail or lay-over station for the trains
which remain at the Centre all night,
will be Avondale. The train that leaves
here going north to Avondale at 62O will
start from the above named town. The
other trains will run to that point and
return. What advantages this change
will afford the town is hard to tell Just
yet. Several families who have resided
here for a number of years will be forced
to move away, which we are sorry to
to lose. No doubt there will be erected
freight house here, siding put down,
and considerable improvement made for
landing freight.

Two Lively 0hases.

lovers of the chase hailing from Mary
land, Pennsylvania and Delaware met at
the farm of VIM. A. Morrison, Democra-

o'clock Reynard No. was set free. In

trail and away the merry sportsmen
went. The chase was short but very ex-
citing, and the large company returned
and enjoyed bounteous lunch at the
hands of Mr.. Morrison. Reynard No. 2
was given liberty after the lunch had
been disposed of, and he too was run to
cover. The meet was seemingly
well enjoyed, and all the hunters vote
candidate Morrison the right man to
look after matters at New Castle after
the campaign this fall.

will say that sum not exceeding 5000

this we feel truly thankful, and the only
regret is, that the amount is not larger

Something Wrong.

Several days ago very respectable
looking, middle-aged Scotch lady arrived
in this town. She stopped at the Deer
Park Hotel, and said she wanted to pur-
chase real estate. She was fine talker,
wellversed on many subjects and could
entertain by the hour. Several fine
farms were viewed by her and she de-
cided to take them. Her actions and
talk of fabulous wealth aroused the Curl
osity of SEVERAL and investigation began.
This woman reported that she resided in
Baltimore, ON BroaG street. A gentle
man, "a real detective) was dispatched to
gather facts ard establish a clear case.
This mans return was awaited with
much interest," anu when he reported
that something was wrong, there was
straitening of faces. The woman was
wrong, or else she was acting some part
to gain certain point. 1t remains a
mystery. She left here one evening and
went as far us Baldwin station where she
left the cars and walked down the B. &
o. railroad as far as Whitaker, distance
of ~ miles. From this point we under
stand that she went to Elkton and there
she was arrested
She made many promises of gifts. One
she was going to take to California,another
was to have fine MastiT dog and a par
rot, another case of excellent wine, &c.
For the past week the town has been
more or less interested about the matter.
She had plenty of money with her, so
reported to us, and paid all bills con-
tracted.

On Wednesday evening, the 22d, the
Mission Band of Christian Chapel gave a
very pleasant entertainment The
chapel was filed to standing room only.
The opening exercise was singing, and
the Pastor, Rev. T. b. Knowles, made II
prayer; then followed scripture respon-
sive reading. The opening address was
made by Nettie Steele, who acquitted
herself very nicely; short dialogue,
Grandma Gray's Visit" between En-
ma Whistler and Louisa Garlck, was
very well done; Miss Emma Choate fol-
lowed with a recitation entitled, "The
Lords Command" which was impressive
and finely rendered.
Miss Name Whistler favored the audi
ence with solo, and was followed by
Stella Simmons in select reading, in
which the little girl showed careful study
and greatly pleased the audience; Six
Little Pioneers, in "What Can You Give"
was well done Ada and Louisa Garlick
sang very sweetly duet, with the band
joining in the chorus; Little Walter
Pyle spoke his lines nicely; Miss Della
jackson read poem in very pleasing
manner; Rev. Y. b. Knowles sang solo
"Your Mission;" and was followed by
Master Paul Knowles in "The Light
House Keeper" which he handled nice
ly. The Mission Band favored the aud
fence with Il song, and was followed BY
recitation from Miss Ella Simmons;
Almond Knowles recitcd "A Boys Con
fession to Boys" was good advice, and
we hope it will be needed the dialogue
between Matte Lewis and Ralph Os-
mond was very pleasingly rendered,
The barrels were opened and the CON
tents made known, showing that the
children had been working Industrious
ly. The empty barrels were sold, and
caused considerable amusement. The
auctioneer has the honor of paying the
highest price for one of these barrels.
The Treasurer's report was read by
Emma Whistler, showing that the mis-
sion Band were ndustriously working
and collecting to send missionaries to
distant countries; John l.. j. Whistler
made few remarks about the good
work the mission band was doing and
hoped that parents would encourage
them to greater endeavors.
Ada Garlick made very pleasing
closing address, and after singing the
doxology the audience was dismissed by
the bencdiction from Pastor Knowles.
