No Poetry in the Wildwood.

Cold and frosty weather scame on so
suddenly this fall and with such severity
that there will be no delicate tinge on
the ivy leaf or mellow, yellow and gold
on the cottonwood. There will also be
an absence of purple and brown on the
ash, and the deep red IT the oak will
not be seen. Cruel frost, it was go
severe it killed the foliage outright and
there's no poetry in the wildwood as
heretofore.

Black Jack In Trouble.

There was a little row "mong de
cu]lud folks" aired in Justice Chase's
court Wednesday. There is a dilapi-
dated building on the government re.
serve down at Camp Hancock, and it was
given to Jim Carter, if he would tear it
down and remove it. Jim didn't have
time to do the work himself, and 80 he
engaged Senator Anderson Baker to do
the Job. Baker concluded he wanted to
be oyerseer, and 80 in turn he hired
Jack Venable, or Black Jack as he is
better known, to perform some of the
manual labor. They went to work
Yesterday afternoon, and the senator
ripped if the boards, and dismembered
the partitions, while Jack gathered the
fragments together, and hauled them
away. Everything went along smoothly
at first. The first two loads were
hauled to Carter's place, and then a
slight ripple of disagreement marred the
even tenor of the work, so to speak.
"It'ink I'll tex dis yere nex' load
down ter Miss Fanny Davis's," said
Jack, as the third load was finally
piled on the wagon and ready to start.
Use gwine ter hev dat ar mex load,
ma'self," said the senator, as he paused
from his work and looked around. "Yo'
byar me%
Den yo'se gwine ter scrap fer it,"
responded Jack, "fer Use sho' gwine ter
TEX it down ter Miss Davis"
The senator claimed in court
that Jack piled onto him, hit
over the head with a gun, poked him in
Fhe ribs with the same instrument, and
otherwise misused him. Other testi-
nony corroborated his, and Jack was
beld in $500 bonds to answer in district
ourt.

He is in better health than he has been

Strawberries strawberry fields
are looking beautiful in their green fol-
iage and whitened blossoms, and the
prospects for an abundant yield were
never more promising. From the
most reliable reports we can gather,
the strawberry crop in WicOmico this
season will be the largest, by far, ever
known in the history of the county.
The acreage was nearly double what
il was before. There are several very
extensive growers in this county,
among them being Mr.. Edward White,
of Wilton, who has % acres at home,
and is interested besides in 25 acres in
various sections Of the county. Mr..
John w. DasLiell, ct Prlitland, has
nearly fifty acres in Ibearing, while
l.. B. Birmingham, of Dennis district
has about the same quantity to pick
from this spring. There are a number
of growers having from to 10 acres in
bearing. The crop will no doubt be
an abundant one, and we hope prices
will be remuneratiye.--SqIisbury Nel0s.

FRIDAY, the long session of the Leg
islature adjourned sine die. 1t started
with the promise of being a short ses-
sion and but little legislation, and
ended with being one of the longest.
An immense amount of time was ex-
pended in changing boundaries of
school districts and transferring farms
from one district to another, all of
which had to be considered but
amounted to little, except to a very
few. Numerous charters have been
granted for electric and other railways,
most of which will never be built

waste time on many worthless bills
and thus the better consideration of
important ones neglected.
A bill to amend the registration law

Board of Registration is required to sit
two days instead of three; a fine of
$500 and years imprisonment is
added for attempting to bribe or in
timidate an elector from registering.
The Senate bill, in relation to the
collection of taxes, was amended and
passed by the House. AS amended
the bill subjects person found guilty
Of impersOnating an individual for the
purpose of obtaining tax receipt, to a
fine not exceeding 5000 and imprison-
ment not exceeding two months.
The charter of the Delaware Pneu-
matte Tube and Delivery Company,
with a capital of 100000, was passed
bv the House. The BrandywIne Hun
dred Road bill, dividing the hundred
into five districts instead of two, was
passed by the Senate.
The bill legalizing barb wire fences
was finally considered and passed by
the Senate.
