There was some surprise manifested
at Georgetown when it become known
that Everett Derrickson, Elbert Daw-
son and Harry Goodwin, the three
young white men in Georgetown Jail
awaiting trial for an alleged felonious
assault on 17-year-old Marcella Tyre,
would not have to stand trial for their
lives. This was not generally known
until last week although it was known
that there had been no special panel of
jurors drawn and that Sheriff Short
had promulgated no call for a Court of
Oyer and Terminer, which court must
sit to hear all capital cases. The Sus-
sex county conrt is now IN session.
Attorney John NJ. Richardson, for
the accused men, has prepared a
strong defense, and it is thought
in the neighborhood of Roxana, where
the alleged assault was said to have
been committed, that conviction of
the trio is doubtful. They will have
to face jury, however, and the state
will doubtless try the men for attempt
to commit felonio is assault. Should
they be convicted for the attempt, at
the expiration of their sentences they
could be re-arrested and tried for
another offense, which punishment
would mean seven years in Jail, so says
the Union Repu6IicGn.

CHEswoLD, Oct. 2.-Our cannery
closed for the season last Friday.
The Pole help and skilled workmen re-
turned to their various homes after a
canning season two or three weeks
shorter than last year and a cor
respondingly smaller pack than last
year. All is quiet now at the plant
except labelling and caseing the fruit.
The draught is now being broken
and farmers speak of the late rain as
''very nice one." But little wheat has
yet been sown III this locality.
There is a difference existing be-
tween the dealers and the growers
here as to the price for Keiffer pears.
The former are offering 12 cents per
basket which the latter don't accept.
A carload was made mp Tuesday for
shipment to Pittsburg for better
prices. Sweet potatoes are also arriv-
ing in liberal quantities for shipment
Mr.. Edward Ford near Cheswold has
been successful grower and notwith-
standing the drought, has dug already
over 1900 baskets and hopes to get 1900
baskets from 4 acres. He packs for
shipment mostly in half barrel pack
ages and finds market in Pittsburg.
Mr.. Ford last year turned about the

we will give results of this year next
