WEII-KNOWN WOMAN SUDDEN
LY PASSES AWAY AT THE CLAY
TON HOUSE.
Mrs. Margaret Ann Osborn, aged
75 years, died suddenly Saturday night
at the Clayton House. where she
boarded.
Mrs. Osborn has been a widow for
nearly forty years, and for the past
twelve years has made her home with
her widowed daughter, at the Clayton
House, in this city. Her husband was
a prominent member of the Delaware
bar, and practiced in this county. She
is the daughter Of Dr. Thomas a for
mer wel-known physician, who prac-
ticed in this city a number of years
.ago. DR.. Thomas was the richest man
in New Cas5e county, and was promi-
nent in medical circles in many cities
outside Of Delaware.
Mrs. Osborn had been suffering for
some days with the grip, but was not
confined to her bed About 1890
O'Clock she was taken suddenly III, and
Dr. Howard Ogie was Immediately
sent for, but arrived too late to render
assistance, and she died at IL O'Clock
Of heart failure.
Mrs. Osborn was the mother Of two
children, Mrs Baker and Alfred Os-
born. Mrs. Baker is the widow of
Commander Huston Baker. OF the

r. Cochran, and was afterwards em-
D,oyed in the land Office department

the State Of Washington
In her palmy days Mrs Osborn was
well-known in prominent society in
many cities outside of this state.
Her death was great shock and
surprise to her many friends in this
city, and It viii be especially regretted
by those who We're so fortunate as to
be graced by her good WIZ and cheer
iul manner.

Wilmington has many people who find
Il hard TO keep the wolf from the door

seems to ccnspire against them, then
they must fly % their more fortunate
neighbors for succOr. The Associated
Charities have had more appeals for
help than they could possibly respond
to. being short Of funds and either

aid, and It should be forthcoming al

SALy OF LIQUOR TO EIHORS
ERIE MEDICAL

DEPUTY ATTORNEY GENERAL
COOPER SENDS AN IMPORTANT
MEASURE TO THE LEGIsI4A-
TURE.
Deputy Attorney-General Peter L.
Cooper, Jr., Saturday forwarded a bill
to the Legislature regarding the FUR
nishing Of liquor to minors and max
ing it a penal offence to commit such
an act.
Since the trial Of Samuel Peo, pro-
prietor Of the Washington House, on
the charge Of selling liquor to minors.
and his subsequent acquittal on the
charge by the jury, there has been
much comment on the law by the
legal fraternity and the public in gen.
eral All are unanimous in their opin-
ion that had it not been for the ma
ture Of the present. statute that Pee
would have been found guilty of the
offence with which he was charged
The law now in existence was pass
ed by the General Assembly in 1873
and is contained in volume H. chap
ter AIS, of the Laws of Delaware.
Recognizing the necessity of having
statute more stringent in its nature
Mr.. Cooper drew up a bill yesterday
re.ative to the subject, and forwardet
It to the General Assembly for it's ap.
proval.
The act is entitled "an act to ament
chapter AIS. section IA, volume IA, O
the Laws Of Delaware" and its term
prohibit any saloon-keeper or hote
man from selling, giving, delivering
or furnishing any Intoxicating hquorl
to minors, or permitting them to drinl
such on the premises. The punishmen
for such offences is the same as pro
hibited under The present measure.
Both District Attorney White an,
Mr.. Cooper are desircus that the ac
shall pass, as they realize the neces
sity of such law in order that offend
ers OF the Peo type may be success
fully prosecuted. AS the law nov
stands, a minor may become intoxi
Gated with impunity. and the saloon
keeper cannot be held responsible
Young men so inclined may now g
into a saloon with person Of age, an,
by the latter purchasing drinks, ma
become beastly drunk, and the salooi
man can in no wise be prosecuted, un
less it is clearly proven that he ha
direct knowledge that the money wit
which the drinks are purchased wa
furnished by the minors. He eve
cannct be held for selling to intoxi
Gated persons, as long as the perso
buying the drinks remains sober. Nh
Cocper's measure has the approval @
all good citizens of this city.
