]. ]. ROsa,s Strawberries, etc.

The largest and prettiest strawberry
field in this section of Delaware, is that
of 7. I. Rosa, one mile north of town,
This field is seventeen arres in extent
and it is now in full blossom. The hay
used between the rows and under the
plants is bright and sweet aud pretty to
look at Mr.. Rosa has taken much care
in spreading the hay and the berries will
rest upon it instead of upon the ground.
Ia this manner the berries will be en-
tirely free from grit. Seventeen acres is
the largest patch in this section OF coun
try aud Mr. Rosa expects big yield this
season of fine stock. In addition to this
fine yield in strawberries Mr.. Rosa has
set-ten acres in sweet potatoes and at this
writing these plants are standing erect
aud have already taken root aud are
growing nicely. Five thousand large
aud healthy peach trees Mr.. Rosa also has
on this model farm and his orchard, like
all other things on his farm, is kept In
perfect condition. Mr.. Rosa is one OF
the very few successful farmers of this
section aud during the hard times of the
past three years he has succeeded IN max
ing farming pay. Everything looks as
fine as attention and energy and push
aud experience eau make things look
Those Interested i'll farming would have
good object lesson if they would spend
few hours going over Mr.. Rosa's farm.
There Is much to be seen there that
would be of vast benefit TO the average
farmer and TO follow after him would be
a paying thing for many of'our farmers
to do.

Georgetown Yesterday. There was bad

Junior Rally.

The third anniversary of the organiza-
ton of the Junior Christian Rndeavor
Society of the Presbyterian Church, was
held on Tuesday evening. The heavy
rain storm of that evening kept quite a
number of the Juniors from attending
and made small audience of what would
have been a crowded house The pro
gram, consisting of singing. recitations
motion songs. etc, was greatly enjoyed
Master James Hallett, president of the
Society, gave the address of welcome aud
told very nicely of the early history of
the Society aud of its present aim and
work Starting with twelve members it
now numbers seventy, and has raised
$40 for church and missionary purposes
Six of their number have graduated into
the Young Peoples Society aud five have
also united with the church during the
past year. Rev. Jos. Brown Turner.
President of the Delaware c f. Union,
spoke very enterlainingly to the children
aud the Presbyterian orchestra furnished
the music. The superintendents, Mrs.
Robt c. Hall aud Miss Ida Cannon, de-
serve high praise for their careful and
efficient training of the children.

The Republican Fight in Kent.

The E9e7y EOeNing of Wednesday
saws: The Higgins aud Addicks fight
is on. The outcome cannot be predic-
ted. A very strong Addicksite says :
"The Kent county delegation will vote
as a unit for J. Edward Addicks. Hig,
gins or Massey cannot control a vote.
They have united their forces. Massey
is here directing the movement in person
but has no following The tide is all one
way and there is a perfect cyclone here
in favor of Addicks "
1t looks as if there will be no fight in
any hundred i'll this county. The ticket
in Dover will be as follows; Beniah
Watson, J. Frank Alice. William T
Smithers, George West aud Adam Viii
son, colored.
Harry A. Richardson saw the storm
coming and would not join Higgins or
Massey in their movement &c slaughter
Addicks. The Higgins-Massey people
saw they asked to be allowed 10 name
three Of the delegates, but we're told they
could not have a single one unless they
earned it by electing it next Saturday.

Owned a Church and DIDN'T Know It.

Surprising it may be, but is neverthe-
less a fact, that Benjamin 7. Collins is
the legal owner of Methodist Church at
Middleford, Sussex county Delaware.
This fact has been brought out recently
by reason of some political wire pulling.
II appears that years ago au old church
was given by the white people to the col
ored people of Middleford, aud III the deed
our genial friend, B T Collins, was made
the trustee, and It was SO recorded For
years the negroes sung and prayed aud
held their meetings there, but few Dem
ocrats lost sight of the trpsteeship aud
attempted to coerce the negroes into vOt-
ing their ticket under penalty OF losing
the church-as they claimed the title still
rested with the white people. The ne
groes took council and found that Ben
iamin T Collins is the Moses to lead
them out of their troubles Ben is not a
protesting christian, but he is a good Re-
publican and upholds fair play-so he
has given the colored people his blessing
and exhorts them TO sing long aud pray
loud in the old sanctuary.

Your Physical Condition

Needs attention at this time. If you are
tired, weak and nervous, II is clear that your
blood is impure. and without doubt there
has been too much over-work or strain On
brain and body. The course Of treatment
for such a condition is plain and simple.
The blood MIST FIRST be purified so that the
nervous system, and in fact all the organs
will be fed upon pure blood, Intelligent
people without number have testified that
the best blood purifier. nerve tonic and
strength imparting medicine is Moods SaF

general debility all vanish when Hoods Sar'

About Mad Dogs.

DIR. J. B Morton recently prepared a
tract under the auspices of the Society
for the prevention of Cruelty TO Ami
mails" in Elizabeth. New JERSEY. which
dissipated some popular illusions con
corning dogs afflicted with rabies Ac-
cording to this authority, dogs commonly
supposed to be mad are simply epileptic.
A mad dog never barks, never froths at
the mouth, never runs around in an ex'
cited erratic manner; these are symp'
toms of epilepsy, never of rabies. A
rabid dog is Silent-not even blows will
extort an outcry from him; he has no
dread of water; his movements are dull,
his aspect disconsolate. Rabies is a very
rare disease, but it occurs iE any season OF
the year, quite as likely in Winter as in
Summer. These facts appear to be we'll
tested. and they should result in relieving
much apprehension on the part of those
VINO fear mad dogs.

accompanied the electricity and several
people who have telephones in their

of the storm The Milford Exchange in

was not any damage done nor was any
body much frightened as we are all used

many electrical sparks, with now and

George Couus about two miles from
Woodside, on Sunday night aud for his
trouble he received the greater part of the
contents OF a charge of No. shot in the
left leg and thigh administered by the
owner of the roost. Harris claimed that
he was drunk and wanted some place to
sleep. He is not seriously injured, but
will not attempt to steal chickens for a
while at least.
