ITEMS FROM
new CASTLE.
June 7th. l1)]!

The farmers Of New Castle hun.
dred are working hard to secure
local mail delivery. The rural free
delivery system may be established d
here provided there are hundred
slgners to the petition. The far.
mers living south of New Castle
we're the first to sign the petition.
There are thirtv-nine names on
that paper. Application has been
made to Postmaster John G. King
for a copy of the petition and it will
be circulated among the farmers
and others living along the river
road. Some of the farmers who live
near the river front can get, their
mail at the end of their lanes. The
idea OF the rural mail delivery is to
benefit the people living in the
country. No effort will be made to
take any of the patrons of the
Farnhurst post Office. Should the
route be esta blished that part of
the hundred at Rarnhurst will be
skipped.
Maggie Jacobs, daughter of Harry
Jacobs of Sixth and Cherry streets,
met with a painful accident on
Tuesday afternoon. She was rum
ming home in fear of a drunken
man and fell on door step. The
head of nail that was sticking out
tore an ugly cash in her skin.
A fairly sized crowd attended
the lunch given IN the Sunday
school room OF the NJ. Il. Church
last evening.
Another family will soon be missed
from this city. Mr.. and Mrs. Har-
old Sudell and their children. They
will remove in few davs to Phila-
delphia where they will make their
home. Mr.. andMrs. Sudell have been
active in the Presbyterian Church
and will be missed.
A party of three missionaries
consisting OF a white man and wo-
man and a colored bugler enlivened
the city yesterday afternoon by
holding religious services on the
street opposite the Court House.
Many persons listened with great
interest.
The school ship Hartford which
passed here yesterday, escaped
grounding in the Middle Ground by
the merest margin. The vessel
ran away out of her course before
the discovery was made. Another
tramp steamer showed the mariner
the course and he headed the ves-
sci as if about to 60 to New Je, sey
and slipped into deeper water and
got the proper course.
Walter Deputy Of Wilmington.
who served sentence Of three
months for the larceny of pipe from
the Harlan and Holllng orth
Company OF Wilmington, was re-
leased from the Jail last evening.
He was in his stocking feet and
bareheaded. Inquiry into his be-
ing released in that condition
showed that he had cut his shoes
and hat to pieces in the hope of
getting new ones. He was fooled and
on being released purchased the ar
ticles.
