Brownsville, Del, Aug. "a.
The most terrible storm that ever
occurred in this section swept around
Brownsville laIst Saturday afternoon
about 3 o'clock The hail and wind,
which accompanied the storm, caused
wide spread destruction. All the
crops are damaged in some places by
the hail. Not blade remaining on
the corn, sweet potato vines cut even
with the ground, tomatoes ruined, and
i'm fact every crop almost if NOT totally
destroyed. In some places two-thirds
of the Immense peach crop was blown
off and the branches of the fruit trees
were piled ON the ground. The cyclone
struck in full blast in the Ross neigh
borhood near Vernon, completely de-
molishing the commodious machine
house and its contents, Including a
York carriage belonging to R. Wesley
Ross The wind also blew down 1.-The
carriage house of Frank Ross, destroy
ing his machinery, one of his carriages
and spindle wagon, besides car

CITY PLEASURE SEEKERS
STILL ENJOY BOWERS
Local Democrats Express Great De-
light in Mr.. Bryan's Strong
Speech of Acceptance.

Especial Correspondent of Delawarean)
Bowers, Aug. ".
The cottages along uhe bay and
river shores are still occupied with
pleasure seekers from Philadelphia,
Wilmington and NEAR by towns. The
weather the past week has been quite
pleasanI here. Sunday last was one of
the most pleasant days of the season.
The cool 'breezes from Ibhe northwest
made the day a delightful one and
many from the surrounding neighbor-
hood and towns CAME down and spent
the day
Trout fish ARE being caught daily,
but in few more weeks will take
their departure to THE deep waters of
1.-The sea, while other species of fish
will cake their places in these waters.
The cannery at this place has start
ed up for the season on tomatoes and
peaches. The recent rains of the past
and present week have been a great
benefit to the tomato crop in this
locality, and the present prospect lis
good for a large yield.
Owing Ito the favorable season that
we have been blest with during the
past four months, the corn crop i'm this
neighboihood is in excellent condition
and promises the tiller of the soil a
large yield for the coming harvest.
The billers of the soil in UhIis neighbor-
HOOD have in fact much Ito be ithankful
for ito THE ONE who sends rain and
sunshine upon THE just as well as the
unjust. On the Eastern shores OF
Maryland the corn, hay and vegetable
crops will be total failure owing to
the severe drouth that has visited
them during the past four months.
The Democrats in this vicinity as
we'll as throughout the State who have
read Mr. Bryan's acceptance speech
consider lit a masterpiece of eloquence
and political strength. 1t can be
plainly seen at present that scores
and scores who were against Mr.
Bryan in 1896, are with him now ON
the issue of Imperialism They can
plainly see that the BATTLE that is to be
fought ON the 9Th day of November
next is not only fight of Democrats
against Republicans, but one of right
against might; humanity against
greed, and Republic against the en-
pire And the majority of gold Demo
Gratis throughout the United States to-
day have made emphatic announce
ment of their determination to vote
for Mr. Bryan on 1.-THE 9th day of No
vember, 1900. They are the same who
so ably supported Mr. Mckinley in
1896.

yesterday was far more like hero
than transgressor. From the time
he was first caught a glimpse of ON the
train he was smiling and nodding to
old acquainItances. 1t seemed hard to
realize that it was not the jolly, good
natured Howard Wilkinson OF old, and
they waved their hats at him all the
way up the street, reaching into the
hack Ito shake his hand. Sympathy
for a refined man in the custody of a
detective may have aroused this, but it

Rumor He Visited Packard's Farm.
It was rumored last evening that
Wilkinson, after his hearing, drove
out to the Packard farm but did not
alight or speak to any of the family.
Mr.. Packard himself, it is stated, was
ROY at home at the time. The eloper
talks very freely giving his version of
the distressful affair which has
wrought SO much ruin to Mr.. Pack
ards home and family.
