A VERY DANGEROUS ROAD.
NEED OF GREAT CAUTION ON THE
NARROW DIXIE CAUSEWAY
PENDING IT'S ENLARGEMENT.

The two new dump cars now at the
Wilmington and New Castle Railway
Company's new car barn, will be used
for carrying ashes and other matter to
the causeway just north Of the Narrow
Dixie bridge, where the road has been
widened by moving the fence out four
feet. This has made a very dangerous
and precipitous edge of the high cause
way, but it will soon be filled in to the
fence and graded substantially.
IL seems that the New Castle Levy
Court has only granted the new troll
ley company the privilege of occupying
this causeway for three years. Thus
the new company must build out this
road all along the causeway and then
move the track bodily about eight
feet to the eastward. Meantime If any
drunken men drive along this roadway
at night there will in all probability
be work for the coroner
Work on the lofty bridge over New
Caslle-Edge Moor cutoff railroad has
been commenced. and several stone
masOns from Allentown, Pa, who are
boarding with David b. Kee, have
begun the abutments of heavy stone
and cement.
AT the new pOwer-house all the
workmen are finishing a cosy Office in
the southeast corner. The high smoke
stack has been raised and adjusted.

HAD THE BATTERY APPLIED.

David b. Kee, the well-known far
mer, living just beyond the Narrow
Dixie, decided on Saturday that as he
had spent several sleepless nights and
most unhappy days wrestling with
rheumatics in his right leg, heroic
measures would have to be adopted.
Mr. Kee was taken to Wilmington,
where he had the electric battery ap-
piled and last night he was able to

HIS HOME A TOMB.
How an Eccentric New York Man Guards
His Wifes Body.

1
Jonathan Reed, who passes the
| greater part of his leisure time guard
ing the tomb OF his wife in Evergreen
cemetery, Brooklyn, has been requested
by the cemetery authorities not to adj
init so many visitors to the vault as he
has been in the habit of doing.
The vault was built according to Mr.
Reeds own ideas after the death of his
wife, over three years ago. The interi-
or of the vault is ten feet wide, ten feet
high and 10 feet long. The vest.
bule is hung with japanese bead por.
there's and the walls are adorned with
portraits and bric-a-brac gathered BY
Mr.. and Mrs. Reed during their Er-
ropean travels. There are two metallic
collins. One is Theoretically sealed and
contains the body Of Mr.. Reeds wife,
The other awaits Mr.. Reeds body.
"They are the very best that could be
made" said Mr.. Reed. II do not know
how soon the second will be needed, but
thought that so long as they were
making the one I might as well tell
them to make two. People have talked
good deal about what they call my
eccentricity, but that does not worry
me in the least. loved my wife in life
and SO long as live I shall look after
her body. I have simply tried to make
her tomb homelike, so that | could
spend my leisure with her. Naturally
people who have heard of the tomb 60
to see it, and lately the crowd OF visit
ors has been SO large that the cemetery
authorities have asked me not to ad-
NIT the public to the vault. :,
sit has been said that / have removed
the lid of the coffin and allowed people
to see my dead wife's face, but that's
not true. Sometimes, when have been
alone in the tomb, have removed the
coffin lid and that is certainly my PRIV
ilege. I shall continue just as nave
been doing and when l die the cemetery
association will receive fund to keep
the place in order"
Two large vases and large iron tar,
tie, have recently been placed on inc
plot in front of the vault.|Cnicag"
