over saOO Worth of Jewelry Taken Last
Night or Early This Morning-The
sThieves Believed TO BE Novloes But
They Made Good Pull.
The establishment of Davidow g. Co.
at No. 1876 Market street, pawnbrokers
and jewelers., was robbed sometime last
night or early this morning About forty
gold watches and over a hundred rings
were stolen. IL Is a mystery how the
thieves gained an entrance All the street
doors were locked as usual this morn
ing and the light left burning in the
store last night was still lit An entrance
was not gained from the rear, as the
dust on the window and sill was not dis
turbed.
The door in the building leading from
the private entrance to the store was
broken On the hool Of the store was
found coupling pin and several
other rude tools. IL Is thought by some
that the thief or thieves climbed the
awning post aud climbed in the
second story window. Here
the dust on the floor and window
sill looks as IL IL had recently been dis.
turbed. But had an entrance heen
gained In this way, the thief would have
been exposed to view from the street
The goods that were stolen are valued
at from $500 to $500. They were taker

TONTI A FAILURE.

Assistant Treasurer Burkbart Says That
the Original Plan of Tonti Is an Utter
Faiiure-A Wilmington Man Talks.
The members Of the Order of Tonti In
this city are still very much worked up
over the action OF the supreme officers.
They are saying bad things about the
order. IL seems as If the affairs have
not been run to the satisfaction Of the
members for some time. One member,
in speaking Of the matter this morning,
said
1--WE never knew how the affairs Of the
order stood. To be sure once In a while
lot Of figures were shot at us but we
did not know anything about them.
The supreme officers conducted things
to suit themselves II we said any
thing we were charged with insubordi-
nation and If we attempted to make an
examination, the affairs were so compli.
Gated that they could not be under.
stood
be furthermore said that the trouble
has been coming for some time and was
not unexpected and offered TO sell his
paper for $50.
Assistant Treasurer @. T. Burkhart, Of
Philadelphia, was interviewed yesterday.
He said I'VE have found that the
original plan on which Tonti was pro.
eeted is an utter failure, since it is an
absolute impossibility for us TO give
81 900 for about $3.50, even II we take
seven years in which to do IT, The $3.50
paid in earns only 1925. and therefore we
can pay on senior certificates only $475
"There was nothing left TO do but
make 210 assessments at once to cover
up the deficiency, and then, by deduct
ing 1925 from the total we give back
Just what has been paid In, and the
amount it has earned.
"Our order lives almost entirely by
assessments, although there is consider
able money made by lapses and in-
terest on investments. and we have
i full right TO assess members 81 600 enC
only pay the same amount back The
plan we now propose Is about the only
one that will save the order and In th'
future members will pay in $3.50 foi
which we can get 81, 600 in sever
years
When the Wilmington man WAS showI
the statement of Treasurer G. 7. Burk-
hart he said that very little money wa
made on lapses. Those who allow them.
selves to lapse generally manage to ge
as much out as they Fay in. Kirkwoo,

A QUARRY FOR coNVIcTs.

Levy Court Out To-day Looking at the
Different Quarries offered for Sale.
The Levy Court Commissioners went
out to-day to inspect quarries offered to
the county for penal purposes. The trip
was made in carriages, and the jaunt

accompanied by several parties inter
ested in effecting the sale.
The last General Assembly passed a
bill authorizing the Levy Court to make
such a purchase. The idea is to employ
certain classes of prisoners in break
ing stone to be put on the
county roads. At present the work is
done in the yards of New Castle jail. II
a quarry is purchased, suitable quarters
for prisoners will be erected, and they
will be put under the control Of a super

THE NEW "RocK HALL FERRY"
Kent County People TO Make the Trip to
Baltimore In Two Hours

Kent County People TO Make the Trip to
Baltimore I'm Two Hours
The Chester River Steamboat Company
will establish a new schedule for the
steamer Gratitude, says the Baltimore
Sun. The steamer will be put on the
route from Rock Hall, Kent county, TO
Baltimore, AID will make two round
trips daily. This will shorten the
trip from Kent county to Baltimore
about an hour and a half. The
new departure is largely due to
the fact that the farmers in
the lower part Of Kent county
have gone into the trucking business
extensively, and the Gratitudes schedule
will give shippers the advantage of both
the morning and afternoon markets. A
chsrter was granted by the last Legis-
lature to build an electric railway from
Chestertown to Rock Hall, and work will
soon be started on the road When this
is done the people Of Chestertown will be
able to make the trip to Baltimore in two
hours. Mr.. Warfeld, president of the
Chester River Line, says he viii call the
new route Rock Hall Ferry.
