AS result of several meetings of citi-

liquor law in Hartford county, the Legisla-
ture will be asked to repeal that section of
the present law which allows druggists to
sell Intoxicating drinks upon a physician s
prescription. No other change is proposed
in the present law
The treasury system in Kent courty is
improving year Ivy year, as the people be-
come acquainted with it, Only a little
over $4,000 Of the whole county levy oil
1000 remained unpaid on January /.
This small balance will be collected in q
few months, leaving not a dollar to 90 over
to another year
Real estate and business circles in

that agents Of John Wanamaker are nogoti.
ating for the purchase of an entire block,
with the object of erecting an elaborate de,
partment store. The site mentioned is the
block bounded by Shipley, Orange, Ninth

agitation over obtaining stop-over priv.
leges from the railroad companies has
caused Mr.. Wapamaker to take positive
steps at this time, although there has been
talk of a similar intention on his part fol
some time.

BOGGS WILL NOT RETURN.
HIS Wife and Brother Advise Him to Re-
turn But He Ignores Their wishes.

turn But He Ignores Their Wishes.
The stories lately emanating from Dover
and Wilmington, Del, that William n.
Boggs, the missing teller of the First Ma
tional Bank Of Dover, contemplated re-
turning to tell what he knew concerning
his transactions with the bank, and posi-
bly, duplicating others, were exploded Sun
day by his brother, Walter NJ Boggs, who
resides in Philadelphia.
THE FUGrTIvE's BROTHERS. STORY.
Mr.. Boggs not only emphatically denied
that his brother intended to return or had
even evnced desire to do so to any one of
the few persons who knew of his where
him. He, however, strongly intmated
that the reports of his intended return
home originated mainly from persons who
were anxious that he should do so, not that
the ends of justice might be subserved, but
with the hope that thereby they might
make capital to further their own political
ends.
ORIGIN OF THE REPORTS
The first of these stories about the pro-
posed return of his brother, Mr. Boggs said
originated about the beginning of Decem
Der last, and for four months prior to that
time none OF those who had kept up COM
muncation with him had heard of him or
knew of his whereabouts. Since then,
however, he has made known his where
abouts to his wife and brother, but has
steadfastly refused to return, even though
urged to do so by both repeatedly.
ADVISED TO COME BACK.
"Their motive" said Mr.. Boggs, Sin
wanting him to return is that they realize
that it is only question Of time when his
sureties will succeed in running him down,
when the punishment due him will be
meted out, and that it would be better to
take that punishment and be over with it.
''By doing this" he continued, his
brother would be relieved, not only Of the
corning his family, hut his restoration to
them would be that much sooner accomp-
lished " He would not, however, he said,
advise his brothers. return if it was solely
to further the political ambition and
schemes Of certain Delaware politicians.
EXPLAINING DIR. MILLER'S WITT.
There was no special significance, Mr..
Boggs said, of the visit of his brother-in-
law, DR.. w. Fl. Miller, of Lafayette, Ind,
who was in Dover, Sunday. Since the dis
appearance Of her husband Mrs. Boggs has
made her home with the doctor, and had
gone to Dover about Christmas or shortly
before, to visit her mother and take back
TO Lafayette one Of the children, she had
left in her mothers care. While DR..
Millers visit was primarily to take Mrs.
Boggs back to his home, he denied that it
had anything to do with his brother s
return, or that any conference with Francis
Skunk Brown, as reported with that end in
view, would be held.

A suit for replevin was brought last
Saturday before Esquire R. S. Roush by
Mr.. James Yoast, proprietor of the Kra.
mer House, for the recovery OF some
property from Mrs. Mary Kramer, which
he AYERS belongs to him under the terms
of his lease OF the Kramer hostlery and
it's contents. The property in question
is wagonette, which had up until Fri.
day night last been in Yoast's possession
On that night Noble Kramer and John
Purdy entered the stable in the rear of
the Kramer House in which the wagon.
ette is kept, hitched couple of horses
to it and took it to the home of Purdy,
near New Market. Yoast Immediately
filed q suit of replevln before Squire
Roush for the recovery of the property,
but as it was not in this township the
Justice had no jurisdiction in the mat.
ter and the case was dismissed. Yoast
then had Kramer and Purdy arrested on
charge of stealing certain articles which
were in the wagonette at the time it was
taken. However, he failed to sustain
the charge, as no criminal intent could
be proven on the part Of the boys. Their
only object was to secure the vehicle,
which Kramer claims as the property of
his mother. The whole question rests
upon the construction of the terms of
the lease, and Landlord Yoast's only re.
sort now is to bring writ for replevin
in New Market township, where the
property now is.
