WM. PHELAN, of New York, visited
Milford last Tuesday for the purpose of
renting his farm one mile east ofAfilford.
It appears that his lack of information
about Delaware laws and customs has
got the renting of his place in to a snarl
Last year he rented the land-verbally-
to George Morris, while Mr.. Phelan and
family occupied the residence. No notice
to give up the land was served upon
Morris by Phelan, and he now claims TO
hold the land during 1898 under the old
agreement-which would leave only the
house aud an orchard of the farm at Mr..
Phelan's disposal to occupy or rent-so
Mr. Morris claims. Mr. Phelan desired
10 rent the entire farm to John H. John.
ION, who was willing to take it providing
he snarl was Strengthened out Since
he above was put in type Mr.. Morris
las rented the entire farm and received
lease for one year on it by paying the
ent in advance.

One OF the hous es which has tended to build
up savannah and To make 1t q CITY of such
commercial Importance is the Falk Cloth
ing Company. The foundation OF this well
and favorably known house was laid ia 1867,
and 1t has always been the favorite outfit
ting establishment for the better class Of
trade. They carry nothing but reliable
goods, and will not sell anything that they
cannot guarantee to give satisfaction. The
stock carried by the Falk Clothing Company
Is CLEANED from the best offerings, not only
of America, but of the world the custom
house receipts each season showing large
importations by this firm. AS an incident
of their enterprise may be cited the fact that
in order 70 supply their customers with the
ideal pongee coat at a medium cost they
have had patterns made suitable to the men
OF this county and have sent their patterns
to China, where the coats will be made and
made entirely by hand and sent out to them.
Whenever anything new is introduced to
the American public. The Falk Clothing
Company are always the ones to introduce
1t TO savannah. The agnecy of the County
Down Manufacturing Com any (the largest
try) and of the Neptune Life Saving suit
in wearing, which it is an impossibiIity to
sink while bathing, are examples of this.
They have also accepted this season the
agency of Lincoln, Bennett d Co., the hat
makers OF London. This is the highest
grade OF hat made in the world. The lead
ing New York matters who carry them
charge 50 for the derbys, whereas they only
charge IS for those OF their own make, The
Falk Clothing Co. win import these hats
direct through the Custom House here
and in accordance with their principle TO
sell all goods ON uniform small markin OF
profit, will sell them at s.. Those Of our
citizens who feel that they have TO send
north for high grade goods, by visiting the
get there the finest goods made, although
their prices are much lower than
those asked By the Fancy haber-
dashers and matters Of NewYork. Those who
have to make their money go as far as DOS
sible will find that Falk's low grade
goods are made to withstand the hardest
wear and to always keep their shape and
look well. In their advertisements the Falk
Clothing Co. always avoid the "hurrah
