Miss Lulu Bates, who is to drop from

Fourth of July, sends the World some
interesting information about the rise

emnons before Troy so there were accom-
plished parachutists before the days of Pro
lessor Tom Baldwin, of whose experiences
in dropping from aerial heights to the
earth via parachute some words of
praise were said in this column recently.
1t seems that as early as Alb b. &. a
a prisoner in Egypt astonished the
natives by jumping safely from high
tower impeding his downward progress
and "landing" without too violent jar
by holding blanket over his head.
The parachute as we know now is said TO
have been invented by an adventurous
Frenchman who exhibited it in Paris in
1896, and early in this century an English
aeronaut named Green precipitated
himself, with parachute's restraining
aid from the ampler ether, to terra firma
in Paramount Park, Philadelphia, thus
making the first recorded descent in
America. All of which is interesting;
and yet may we not regard these pioneers
as viking explorers and Baldwin as the
real Columbus of the aerial art? Miss
Bates herself has mado 400 descents with
parachutes within ten years she says,
and "never broke bone.

A Contested Will Case.

Ga the fourth day of last May George

sisters only three weeks when he died.
While at Mr.. Black burns he executed a
will on March IS, 1898, which asdrawn
by James Wood and witnessed by him

will Mr.. Carter bequeathed So, 900 to his
sister Mrs. Barclay Reynolds, g., 900 to

Wood as his executor. When Mr..
Wood offered at the Registers Office in
Elkton the will of the decedent for pro-
bate accompanied by Mr.. Blackburn the
other attesting witness, and Elk Sheriff
Reynolds, Mr. Wood testified that he
drew the will and that the decodent Mr..
George Carter was at the time of it's

while Mr.. Blackburn the other attesting
witness at whose house Mr.. Carter had
lived during the winter testified, that

condition of mind to make will at the

represents Samuel Carter brother of
the decedent who was not provided for
in the will, and who resides at Christiana,
Pa, opposed the petition, and the court
has fixed the 18Th of July to hear testi-
mony as to tie mental condition of Mr..
Carter at the time he executed his
will. Six or eight witnesses will at that
time probably be heard.

knights Of Pythias Fair at
North East.

The officers and members of Fellow
ship Lodge No. AZ are making vigorous
efforts to have their fair-to be held on
June 30tb, July LIST, 3rd, 4th and 5th,-
far excel anything of the kind held in
this locality. This lodge is one of the
fair are to swell their widows and
orphans fund. The place selected is a
large lot in the centre of the town plenty
OF shade and stream of refreshing water
the entire length of the lot. The Geci-
sion to have the fair was made in the
early part of last winter, since then the
Knights have been as active as beavers
perfecting plans, arranging committees,
and providing for all the various details
that accompany au undertaking of such
magnitude. There is no secret organiza
tion in existence that seems to be so
popular with the gentler sex than the
Knights of PytEias as witness the gener
Gus offerings Of beautiful haudiwork and
the unselfish willingness to assist III any
consistent way to make the fair success.
The time set apart for holding the fair is
very propitious as it takes in the 4th of
July, the nations great holiday and it is
proposed to make that day the great
event of the fair. Eminent speakers from
distant have arranged to be present
and the vast crowds of people will have
the opportunity of hearing 'phythian-
ISM blended with 'liberty," from
gentlemen high in rank in the order of
Knights of Pythias and prominent in the
political arena of our. country. A iull
company of the uniformed rank from
Baltimore will give interesting evolutionG
in marching, brass bands will discourse
plentiful supply of music, the com.
mittee on amusements has made extra
exertions to provide fun aud diversions
by the wholesale. The town will put on
gala attire and all the residences will be
decorated with the national colors and
at night will be Illuminated and the
colors of the order, an open hospitality
will prevail. At 3 p. m, Prof Jackson,
of Philadelphia will give beautiful dis
play of fireworks, and refreshments will
be provided beautifully. Throughout
| the entire time the various committees
| will have for sale articles useful, anc
articles ornamental, objects of art, brio
brac etc. An apron bazr will
furnish aprons of every conceivable style
from the great big kitchen kind to the
dainty elaborate lace kind. 1t is expected
that large numbers of visiting Knights
will be present from this and adjoining
| States.

Town Council.

At the meeting of the Town Council
on Monday evening, the assessment list
was completed. The tax rate was fixed
at So cents on the 800, the same rate as
for three years past. This will yield a
return sufficient to pay all fixed charges,
including one of the $500 Town Hall
bonds, and leave ample for street and
other improvements.
Bailiff Boulder and force of men will
next week begin street cleaning and
repairs.
The Council on Wednesday evening
made tour over the western part of the
town and took in view projected improve
ments. Arrangements have been made
with the Gilpin estate to relieve the
nuisance of water on upper Bow street.
Also the water on North street below
the railroad. A sewer is being considered
for Church street, to lead down Wells
hill, and grading and filing for Wes
High street. New curbing will be laiG
in various parts of tn, town where
parties desire to lay new psvements.

LOTS OF PEACHES.
There Will be Over Three Million Bas-
kets of the Fruit.

There Will be Over Three Million Bas-
kets of the Fruit.
From all over the Peninsula comes the
good news that the peach crop has never
shown fairer promise than this season.
From Clayton to Salisbury, from Centre
vile to Smyrna the peach growers with
scarcely an exception, look forward to a
heavy yield of luscious fruit from the
middle of July to the middle of Septem-
Der.
Conservative estimates place the entire
shipment of the Peninsula at 3,506, 900
baskets. OF this total the Diamond
State, of course, contributes the msjor
part, fully 100000 basketsbeing estim-
ated as it's output. Kent county, the
banner peach district of the Peninsula,
alone claims a crop of 100000 bas
kets.
Over 500, 900 baskets are expected from
Caroline county, and Kent county claims
100000 baskets.
In Sussex county, Dell, an estimate is
difficult to make, as the many young
trees there which will come into bearing
this year are an unknown quantity, but
they are expected to produce heavy
crop.
New Castle county's day asi a peach
growing district b as passed away through
the ravages of the "yellows. aud ii is
not likely that its crop will be very
heavy. The first peaches will probably
come from that district. These will be
'prematures or peaches ripened early
by the "yellows" and will not of neces-
sity be first class fruit. These may be
expected early in July. Above Chesw old
most of the peaches are affected by the
dreaded yellow"
These estimates are all based on the
expectation that the usual summer
drouth will not be severe this season.
The trees have already stood the "June
she'd very well, and the fruit seems
better set and the leaves of healthier
color than for many years past. A
crop like that of 1875, when the
Peninsula shipped almost 10000, 900
baskets of peaches, is, of course, not
expected; but from every indication it
will be the heaviest crop for five or six
years past. South of Woodside the
"yellows" have hardly affected a single
orchard,

Formerly of Cecil County.
Many of our readers, particularly those
in the upper sections OF the county. will
remember reading of the brutal and
unprovoked murder of Clarence ii.
Moore, formerly of this county, by one
William Mitchell which took place in
Chicago on the night of July 9th, 1872.
Both men rcomed at the same lodging
house PIG Washington street, and be
cause Moore would not associate with
Mitchell, the latter took great dislike
to him. On the night of tbs murder
Mitchell bought revolver and returned
home drunk. Ga meeting Moore at the
door he deliberately slapped him in the
face, and when the latter resented the
insult, he shot him twice with fatal
results. The trial of Mitchell consumed
five days in Judge Windes branch of
the Criminal Court of Chicago, aud at a
late hour on Tuesday the 18th inst, the
jury returned verdict, finding Mitchell
guilty of murder in the first degree. The
brutality of Mitchell in the wauton kill.
ing of young Moore had attracted wide
spread attention, and the extremely
light sentence imposed by the court has
been as widely criticised. Mitchell was
ably defended by Judge Black, an
eminent criminal lawyer of Chicago, who
defended the anarchists on their trial
