HAPPENINGS
THROUGHOUT
THE STATE
TRIED 70 TAKE NIFE'S LIFE
This is the Serious Charge Made
Against Floper Wilkinson
of Dover.
ATTEMPTED TO DROWN HER
O-O-O-O-O

Dover, Aug. 16.-When it became
known here this morning that Howard
M. Wilkinson and Miss Josephine Pack
ard had been located at Atlanta, Ca,
Mr.. Packard, the woman's father, re-
marked: "Yes, | knew they were there
last night, but dio not care to impart the
information. am keeping i'll touch with
their movements and will continue so
to do until | have the m arrested.
An incident in the case which has rot
as vet been made public was brought out
when Mr., Packard was asked if Wilkin-
son had not tried to drown his wife at
Rehoboth, last Thursday, the day he
went to the beach to secure the diamond
ring. To this question Mr.. Packard re-
piled:
''lt is TACT, although my daughter at
the time did not realize it. She claims
that her husband held her under water
began to struggle. He told her that was
the way the breakers served one when
they fret vent in bathing. When Will
kinson endeavored to get her in the
water second time, she refused, as she
was afraid she would drown, Now she
sees through the whole thing"
The contention of many people as to
whether Wilkinson could be brought
back here as fugitive from justice has
been settled, since it is known and can
be proven that he has committed enough
crimes to cause his arrest and conviction
dozen times if necessary.
Lawyer Vandyke when questioned
about the matter, remarked: That the
best set OF detectives in the country were
on the track of Wilkinson" and when
asked aa to what agency he referred,
said: Newspapers. II anybody can get
them or trace them, it is the public
press"

4 TIIICK-AND-THIN ADVOCATE.
From the Baltimore News.
Having taken the Republican party
at its word" says the Baltimore Sun
of this morning, "and accepted its as
surance that the silver issue is dead and
prosperity established upon foundations
that cannot be shaken, the Democratic
party has made imperialism the para
mount issue of the Presidential contest
this year"
The way in which the Democratic
party accepted the assurance that the
silver issue is dead is clearly shown III
the following plank in the Kansas City
platform:
We reaftirm and endorse the prin-
ciples Of the National Democratic
platform adopted lit Chicago in 1886,
and we reiteratc the demand of that
platform for an American financial
system made by the American people
for themselves which shall restore
