On wednesday, S0th ult. Union Church
Queen Anne's county, was the scena of two
interesting marriages. At half past twelve
The first took place, the contracting parties
Miss Maggie E. Bowers, second daughter of
MIR. Pierce Bowers. of Double Creek. and
Mr.. james r. Jefferson, the oldest son of
MIR. Charles r. Jefferson, Esq, of the Or
phan's Court. The church was full of their
relatives and friends. The Rev. Mr.. Comp
ton offciated. Mr. and Mrs. Jefferson
drove Immediately to Sudlersville where
they took short tour north. The other
wedding was Miss Maud Thawley, oldest
daughter of Mr.. Thawley of Rich Neck,
and Mr. Fletcher Merchant, youngest son of
Mr.. Noah Merchant
THE MARYLAND TRADE LAST YEAR WAS
BETTER THAN IN 1S95.-The fruit and oyster
packing trade of Maryland, one of its larg-
est Industries, was somewhat better during
the year Just closed than in 1895 Several
| failur es occurred i'll the canning industry
and dependent trades, and others struggled
through but Il small balance to the net
profit account. The entire business for the
year did not exceed $1,000, 900. In 1895 it
reached only about 81, ZOO, 900, while in 1894
it got up to about $4,000, ,OOO This does
not include the raw oyster shippers, who
sent out in the neighborhood of three mill
ion bushels ON an average price of about As
cents. Gamers do not anticipate the de-
cided prosperity of few years ago, when
Baltimore was credited with having about
three-fourths of the trade. Now they are
only able to control about one-third of it.
However, they feel encouraged with the
prospects for 1897.

Tho following pensions have been
,,ronted to Delawareans: Original Eli
;ab Knots, Marshallton; original
widow. Elizabeth Campbell of Will
mingtOn.
Many of the wells have gone dry in
Pencader Hundred and q number of
the farmers are compelled to haul water
for their horses and cattle from run
ming streams.
Rev. A. D. Davis has severed his
connection with the Sussex county
Republican, published at Georgetown
Sussex county. Failing health, we
believe, led to his withdrawal.
This is not winter of religious re-
vivals in Delaware. With manifesto.
ton of piracy on the part of one politi-
cal party, and outraged feelings of the
other party, there is provocation to
profanity and bitterness rather than
that meeekness that goes with repen-
tance.
Ex-SPEAKER MCCABE is NOT DEAD
The Rev. W. L. S. Murray, d. D., has
received a positive denial of the report
that ex-Speaker of the House W. r.
McCabe was dead. DIR. Murray, who
is cOuein of Mr.. McCabe, wrote to
Mr.. McCabes father, who lives at Sell
byville, for information, and has re-
ceived the good news that Mr.. McCabe
is not dead.
The question of how to abate the
tramp nuisance is one which continual
ly puzzles the officials. None seems to
work-neither tramps nor plans. The
citizens of Middletown have put in Op-
Grafton a system which, thus far seems
to do the business. When vagrant
is captured within the city limits he is
put in the lookup and held until he
promises to leave on steady run and
never come back.
A BURGLARY. Thieves entered the
house of Benjamin Caulk, near Town
send, while Mr.. Caulk and family were
visiting at Smyrna Thursday night, and
carried off quantity of ewelry, besides
a small sum of money that had been
saved over from Christmas by Mr..
Caulk's little boy Harry" who kept
it in toy bank on the bureau, upstairs.
Mr.. Caulk did not arrive home until
late in the night, and it is evident that
the miscreants made their home at his
residence, for several hours at least.
The burglars had set upon every bed
and had broken open desks and bureaus
all over the house, and besides had
wantOnly destroyed furniture.

ing to $4,000 Prothonotary HutsOn,
who had been informed by counsel
that he could not legally accept the
recOgnizance, refused the prOffer.
Next Mr.. Reedy appealed to Judge

ALMOST BURIED ALIVE.

NED WILLIAMS HAS A MIRACULOUS
ESCAPE FROM DEAIH-BURIED
TWENTY-FIVE FEET IN A
WELL BUT ESCAPES
WITHOUT IN
A well known colored man
named Ned Williams had a mirac.
ulous escape from b-iog bu,ied
alive yesterday.
He was digging a water well al
the home of Sarah Moore, about
3 IL miles southwest of this city
and had gotten to depth of about
twenty-five feet. The we'll was
curbed on the sides with timter
and while Ned was at work at the
bottom the whole thicg FIJI in.
Luckily the people at the house
heard the crash and gave the
alarm.
S. L. Biting, of this city, who
was at work on his farm near by
making seed beds, heard the cry
for help and was soon at the scere
of excitement. With the assis-
tance of several neighbors who
copgregated they were soon at
work digging for Williams whom
everyone expected to find corpse.
For three hours they worked BE-
f)re the t:mbers we: reached
AS they lifted the sand from the
top they were ove,j yed to hear
the buried man knocking on the
boards underneath. Soon they
heard him speak and in a few min
utes they g'asped him by the
hand and drew him to the top un
harmed.
AS the well fell in the timbe r:
joined at the TOP, forming a sheo
over the man where he remained
until rescued. He shouted at the
top of bis voice but could not be
beard. The crowd gave him {
hearty cheer as be was lifted safely
to the top.
