date still further back Dec. 17lh.
1868, when we were in tie thickest
and most uncertain period of the war
of the rebellion. These old copies that
80 back quarter of century and
more have many items Of historic 10
terest.
The poetry of this issue written by
a local contributor was entitled, Lines
suggested by the death of Charlotte
Evans, daughter of Col Henry c. and

dedicated to them by the author.
Among the locals are the following
statements: Corn is coming to mark ct

The chicken pox has run its course
among the children at CheswOld and

tiOns have also been very prevalent of

A General Reduction in the
Price of Sugar.

After April the price of sugar will
be reduced about two cents a pound.
Granulated sugar, which now sells for
seven cents a pound, will be sold at
five cents. and a corresponding reduc.
ton will be made 10 all the lower
grades OF sugar. One merchant who
was spoken to about the price of sugar
said that, after April !, sugar will be
''dirt cheap"
The general opinion of the mer-
chants who sell sugar is, that the sugar
supply ofa family costs more than -four,
and that the reduction in its cost will
result in a material saving to a great
many families. Sugar Is necessary
article of family consumption aud peo-
pie will buy il at any cost.
William II. Morris said the reduction
in the price of sugar is the effect Of the
Mckinley tariff, and that wholesale
dealers are receiving large ordeFs lp
be flled after April !, when the reduc:
ton In price takes effect,
The benefit Of She lower prices will
be particularly beneficial derIng the
fruit preserving season. when as rule
price Of sugar Is advanced. The
change will encourage the preserving
Of fruit for family use at home, and
will make larger aud better market
for the sale Of fruit.

B. N. S. K.

On Monday evening the B. NJ. S. K.
held Il very enjoyable sOciable at Miss
Mabel Thompson's. The evenings
enjoyment was started by what is
called a cOb-web party. A great deal
of fun was gotten out of this, for the
members had certainly made a COM
plete cob-web, and they worked
hard for the souvenir found at the end
of their string. About 10 o'clock the
company was invited out to the dining
room, where sandwiches and coffee
were served, the FIRST named being tied
with the Clubs colors, blue and olive
ribbons. After spending a social time
talking, the evenings pleasures ended
with a palette party. Each person
was given a neatly gotten up palette
and piece of paper numbered with
the name of an animal written on it.
As the numbers were called out, the
parties answering to them, drew the
animal on g large sheet of paper
Those guessing the nearest number of
animals right, were given prizes, Miss
Carrie Beck and Harry Tschudy receiv
ing the first prizes, and Miss Flo
Gootee and Hervey Hall receiving the
BOBBY prizes THE Irish Jubilee" as
sung by gentleman from Clayton was
received with rapturOus applause
There were about 80 persons present.

A Scrap of Church History.

In looking at the church record of
the late Col. Geo. w. Cummins, viz:
his official relation to St. Peters as
Senior Warden, &c, it appears that he
received the rite of confirmation on the
18th of November 1913, from the hands
of Bishop Lee, who was the first
Bishop of the diocese of Delaware, con-
secrated to this once on the 18TH of
October 1S41. The Episcopal duties
had previous to this date been admin
istered by Bishop H. U. Onderdonk,
of Pennsylvania.
The present Episcopal church was
built and cOnseCrated for worship in
1880. constructed in part of the re-
mains of q former Episcopal church
that stood at Duck Creek-the bury
ing ground still remaining as ST. Peters
cemetery. This will make 60 years
that the society has been worshiping
on the present sits, the church having
in the meantime been considerably
enlarged.
During these 60 years the church has
had nineteen rectors, or fraction of
little over three years on an average.
The names of the rectOrs are: John B.
Robinson, Rev. Mr.. Woodward, Ed
ward Higbee, Willie Peck, Robert s.

and preached until he was about 9C

of familiar names in Wilmington, Phil

In the general news the fact is noted
that Hon. N. B. Smithers was appoint

of Elections, and that Senator Salisbury
refuses to take the loyalty oath prescrb-
ed by law and it is likely to lead to
trouble in the Senate; also, that Sena-
tor Bayard JAS. A. has not yet taken
the oath of allegiance prescribed since
the;breaking out of the rel ellion and it i:
rumOred that the Senate will insist OF
his subscribing to the oath, or expel
him" Considerable space is given tC
the message of President Lincoln anC
also to that of Davis OF the COnfeder
ancy. Gov. VIM. Cannon gives notice
of the establishment of recruiting sta
ton for the enlistment of coloreC
troops viz: Wilmington, Smyrna, Mil

is made that the two armies in Virgini;

THE TIMES OFFICE has been going
through an experiecne since the last
issue that must be our apology for the
deficiency in our usual reading matter.
On Thursday the youngest printer be-
coming sick, left early in the morning,
the next shortly after dinner and the
foreman towards night. Friday, there
was not printer in the Office. The next
day however, the foreman got back
again but the others are still unable to
work but improving. We have done
the best we could under the circum-
stances with the aid of school boy
from Clayton who had learned some
thing of the business. There is much
more of malarial sickness now then
there was in the fall, when it used to
make it's visit.
WHAT is known as the "United
Order of Faternal cooperation" has
found persons in Smyrna ready to 60
into it, as in Dover and other towns on
the Peninsula. A number have backed
out on learning its real character
The idea is held out that by paying
$44 they will secure 800 in month!
or if bringing in three Others the person
will make a clear gain Of $50 in three
months. 1t is possible that those go
ing in now may come out winners, bu
sometime later ON somebody must b,
swindled. The business is not legiti
mate. The spirit that prompts such al
investment as this is the same tina
sustains lotteries, the roulette whee
and eventually the gambling table.
