A C0IOred WOman's Mysterious
Denth-GuL Himself with an Axe.
CHEsTERrDwN, Nd, July 3l.--Ssndy
Bottom, little village near Fairlie is
much excited over the mysterious death
OF Hannah Ford, oolored. She and her
husband, Thomas Ford, separated about
year ago, but Confined to live in the
same neighborhood, and they were often
together. 1t is stated that on tn sday
evening the woman went to her husbands
house armed with knife, which, how
ever she did not use. She attacked him,
however, as he sat at table, and was
neary choking him 10 death when he
freed himself. Again she made dash
for him, but this time he knocked her
down. She made no effort to get up. He
told her friends to remove her. When
they entered the house they found her
lying insensible upon her face on the
flor, with her limbs slightly drawn up.
Upon q close exsmina ion the woman was
found to be dead. A Jury of inquest was
summoned yesterday by Justice Wilkins.
DR.. J. B. Wilson examined the womsn's
body. but could find no soar or bruise,
and the Jury rendered verdict OF death
from unknown causes. Har husband is
pAVd0k wv Atbh my bha4so AttnShpa ~
the woman's death.
George W. Roeder, whose house Is near
LOCUST Grove, met with peculiar and
serious accident. While breaking up
barrel with an axe, the implement, while
swnng over his hsad, struck Clothes
line and rebounded, the blade striking
Mr.. Roeder on the head and laying open
q cash to the skull. DIR. Jacobs, his at
tending physician, thinks that he will re-
cover.
While Mr.. Charles Burris and Miss
Dollic Grew were attempting to pass
team few nights ago In road their
carriage struck the stone abutment of q
bridge and then ran into ditch The
animal then ran away, dragging Mr..
Burris by the reins some distance. He
was much bruised. The young lady was
also injured.

The Funds for the Street and sew r
Department Not Pad Over by
Council.
City Council should have passed an
order, at Thursdsy's meeting, for the
payment to the Street and Sewer Depart
ment Of the latter's annual appropriation
of 1926 600. The language OF the law
providing for the payment of this eppro.
priRiion is
The amount of the appropriation for
the current expenses Of said Board of
Directors of the Street and Sewer Depart
m mt so made by Council shalt be paid in
full on or before tho first Saturday in
August in the year A. D., 1887, aud on
or before the first Saturday in August in
each year thereafter, by the city treas-
urer, upon an order or orders drawn by
the aforesaid board Of directors under
the hand OF its president.
A literal compliance with this pro.
vision would be impossible, az tho city
treasurer can not pay the money uutil an
ordar for the same is first drawn by the
City Council. The latter body, however,
has always drawn the check in ample
tim for its payment before the ifst Sat
urday IN August. Last night the mGt.sr
was forgotton but members Of Council
clatn that the department should hAvs
Gent q requisi,ion for the money to tbs
city treasurer, who would have turned it
over to the Oouacil aud lhen the meter
would have been attended to. The pay
ment will be ordered at the next meeting
OF Oouncil. Tbs department Is in press
ing need of the money, as it has many
bills on hand awaiting payment,

Next Saturday the Democratic pri-
msries 10 elect delegates to the State con-
vention will be held In the several hum
drsds and election districts OF this State.
1t is to be hoped that the voters will be
calm and act for the best interest of the
party, by electing unpledged delegates
who will meet determined to act for the
best interests Of the party by selecting
candidates who can and will secure the
undivided and unanimous support of the
party in each county, hundred and dis
triot Of the State. All reasonable men
acknowledge that this is going to be
desperate md closely contested political
battle, and the msjorlty-with both par
ties working with undivided energy for
the party Of his choice--will not be large
either way In either county in the State.
Such being the case every patriotic DEM
ocrst should use and will use every en-
deavor to secure a candidate who can and
will receive the support Of every d 4mo-
crat despite past differences. The DEM
oorsts have bad their fights and have
been divided into factions. They no
doubt ell thought they were right, or at
least it is charitable to 30 think. They
fought like men two years ago and proved
that they hal the courage Of their con-
yiotions by their vslor and determination.
To keep up this fight lie useless and worse
than folly, and can have but one result,
and that result defeat. Such being an
undisputed fact Is it not the part of wis
dom and reason for Democrats to get
together and talk calmly and disp ssion-
ately over the past and agree to bury past
differences by nominating ticket that
will command the confidence OF every
Democrat in the State2 THIS wouid be
wise thing to do and one thpt would
show devotion to principle that was
above and beyond personal animosities
and above self or faction. Such action
will insure victory for the party and in
time heal up the bitterness tnat has ex-
listed aud which still r9nkles in the
breasts Of those heretofore engaged in
strife.
The selection of o candidate that will
unite and haSmonizs every element of
the party may postpone the attainment
Of some peoples aspirations for the
present, but no one man or dozsn
mems aspirations ought 10 stand in the
way of party unity, or in any manner
jsopardizs party's triumph ia the conn
ing contest. II all aspirants are for
party above self, then thsIe will be no
trouble about unity of action, unity of
purpose, and Democratic victory this
fall, because all who will agree that
man who can unite every element Of the
party and secure every Democratic vote,
ID the man to nominate.

From Landing at Augustine Pterl-
A Steamer captain So Claims.
A Chester special to the Philadelphia
Pgess says: All the oolored churches in
this city and vicinity united Thursday in IL
combination excursion down the bay.
Arrangements had been made with the
managers of the steamer Richard Stock
ton to take the party to Augustine Pier,
and the committees were to reosive q
percentage on all tickets sold.
Thursday several hundred people
boarded the boat ut Market street wharf,
an when they had proceeded some
distance down the river the captain in
formed the committee that he had re-
ceived o letter from Simeon Lord, pro-
prietor of Augustins Pier, informing him
that the place was private property and
the oolored excursiOnists would not be
permitted to land there. He refused,
however, to produce the letter. The
boat ran down to Bay Head, but on ad-
Woe OF the committee none of the ex-
curaionists left the boat. They were
brought back TO Chester in the evening.
The Rev. William A. Bryant, pastor OF
Asbury A. M e. Church, and Police
Officer Lewis j. Bell said that no money
had been paid to the steam boat company,
excepting the 1926 deposited when the
boat was engaged aud they proposed TO
use what they had in deiraYing the ex-
penses of an action for $4,000 damages
against the company. Had the boat
stopped at Augustine Pier and we had
besn denied the privilege of landing"
said Mr.. Bell, "then the boat officials
would have been relieved of all resconsi-
bility and we would have looked to Mr..
Lord for damages. As 1t is, we will hold

THE STATE CONTENTION.
Hon. Thomas n. Hfayard Will be
asctegate from the Eieyeni

Hon. Thomas n. Eayard Will be a
bctegatc from the Eleventh
WARD.
Ii is probable that some of the moRt
prominent Democrats OF the State will be
among the delegates to the Democratic
State convent on to Re he in Dover on
Tuesday, August 18th The gravity of
the political situation, and the necessity
for bringing to bear upon the conven
tons work the wisest couusels of the
party, will induce the voters throu about
the state 10 choose their best and strong
est man for delegates.
Ia this city this sentiment has found
expression, as far as the Democrats of
the Eleventh ward are concerned, in a
request for the Hon. Thomas F. Bayard
to represent that ward in the State con-
yention, And to this req lest he has
given favoroble answer. Ia discussing
the question of q candidate several OF
the leading Democrats OF the ward ex
pressed the wish that Mr.. Baysrd could
be the delegate from that ward,
ard last night Harry Il. Smith
called upon him and asked him il
be would accept. Mr.,Bhyard said he
would; that he was nuw private citizen,
aud cling the prof3undest interest in
the success of the Democrats party, was
W Hing to do anything in his power to
achieve that end. II the Democrats OF
the ward desired him TO be their delegate
to the convention he would willingly ao-
oept.
Mr.. Bsyard will bs elected unani.
mously. The delegate election will take
place on Saturday, August 9th.

An Immense daasttn Almost xii
Eiuls-yearh-Did Tina Homes.

An fRmmtense MabltM Almost Riith
EiEhs-yenrs-Did Tina ZONES.
Little Tina Jones, the Sugars old
daughter Of Edwin A. Jones', o.binet
maker for the Jackson d Sharp Company,
who lives at No. 1924 Olaymont street,
was terribly bitten by an immense Eng
lish mastif Thursday.
The child and her mother have been
visiting the latter's uncle, in the country,
"a miles north of Philadelphia, and It
was there that little Tina was attacked by
The dog. The mastiif came to the placs
about week ago, having wandered from
its owner. 1t was an immense brute,
taller than the child, and though quiet
pnd apparently not inclined to be fl srce,
seemed morose and sometimes bad
tempered.
Thursday 4 ma WIS playing near the
dog, when without warning he walked
over her knocking her down on her back.
Then standing over her, he proce! d ID to
tear her face as il it was piece of meat.
He took the whole OF the child's left
cheek In his mouth, decorating and tear
ing it terribly, and narrowly missing her
eye with the teeth of his upper Jaw.
Before the brute could tear the mouthful
of flesh from the little girls face, her
screams brought assistance and her uncle
drove the dog away with pitchfork,
saving her life.
Mrs. Jones at once started for Will
mington with Tina aud arrived ON the
boat from Philadelphia about $50
O'Clock Thursday evening, going at once to
her home. DIR. John w. Orumbaugh, the
family physician, was summoned md
dressed the terrible wound in Tina's
cheek. While there is danger from
hydrophobis, i; is only considered pos
sibility and the wound will probably soon
heal leaving disGsuring scar.
