Din you witness the eclipse of the
moon last night? The eclipse began
about the time the moon arose and
continued until after 8 O'Clock, the
total eclipse being about I O'Clock.
The moon at one time looked as if it
had been up late the night before
and was the worse for the wear and
tear. 1t had peculiar reddish,
brown look and apparently was the
forerunner of the cold wave that had
evidently been side-tracked some-
where in the North.

Thus another Delawarean has
passed away, whose name will al
ways remain linked with the history
of our State. Ex-Governor John p.
Cochran has passed awaysto his re-
ward beyond the skies. He was a
Democrat and we believe an honest
one and in his younger days was a
power in the councils of his party
in this county. He was looked up
to as leader and his advice and
counsel were taken always by the
party leaders. The name of Coch-
ran is one Of the best known old
family names in our State and the
Ex-Governor leaves host of friends
to mourn his loss and pleasant coun-
tenance from among them.
