TRIAL SPINS
Taken, Tuesday, by, Independ-
enCe and Constitution.
Both Boats in Better Shape Than Be-
fore the Accidents.
independence Shows IA Knots Constitution
Tries All Her Sails.

Boston, June lS.-The Independence
was given her sixth trial, today. on
form she certainly seemed better than
during any of her previous trials. and
she showed fine speed at one time
fully IA knots. This comparison was
made from the speed of the tug Juno
which acted as a consort. The boat
did not look quite so "toppy." owing
to the shortened spar. and the thicker
hard pine topmast instead of the old
spruce stick gave her more substan-
tial looking appearance alo:t.
The boat started down the bay just
after 10 o'clock today. The crew We're
happy, this morning. in the prospect
of good spin. There was brisk
southwest breeze, the sky was clear,
and there was but little haze in the
atmosphere.
The Independence kept under tow
until 80, when her huge mainsail was
set and she headed into the wind.
There was n good breeze blowing and
with her sail well trimmed and her jib
and jibstaysail setting well she started
off. Later she came about on the star
board tack, but for a moment, when
she again went on port tack, gaining
in every instance.
When Capt. Half brought her about
again. her sails filled very quickly and
the speed she showed was something
to boast of. Half kept her on this tack
for several minutes. during which time
she had increased her lead on the tug
by over three-fourths of n mile.
Capt. Half apparently was satisfied
with the work done. today, and after
having had her out little over three
hours, he ran her up towards the tug
and she was taken in tow for Boston.

There is good, sound reason for
such a change as described above.
Grape Nuts Food is made of the Sc
lected elements of wheat and barley
that are intended by Nature to rebuild
the soft gray matter in the brain and
nerve cells throughout the body. This
food is SO prepared that it presents
these elements in perfect condition for
immediate assimilation. The food is
thoroughly cooked at the factory, and
should always be served just as it
comes from the package with a little
cream. Do not attempt to stew it but
serve it without cooking except when
combined with certain buildings and
desserts. and even then the cooking is
not necessary except to prepare the
other ingredients aside from the
Grape Nuts.

ASSEMBLY WILL BE BUSY

The two houses of the General Assem-
bly, began all day and night sessions on
Monday to catch up with the 300 bills
not yet acted upon. tits likely, also that
they will hold Saturday sessions, since
eleven members of the House have be-
gun vigorous fight against 'lying down.
on the important measures of state,
which have been neglected considerably
because of the senatorial confusion.
The representatives are very anxious
that no bills shall be crowded out by the
haste Of the close Of the session.
Both houses have been fortunate in Sc
curing for this session a remarkably eff
cient corps of clerks. Speaker McCom-
mons of the House is, himself, an ex-
pert accountant, and the speakers jour
nal is model of neatness and complete
ness. Clerk W. B. Deighton Of the House
is remarkable penman, and his House
journal, which has been kept up from
day to day, looks like printed form, SO
pretty are the writings. Former Secre-
tary of State James H. Hughes, one of
the attorneys for the House, has been re-
tanned particularly for the purpose of de-
tecting all snake legislation or "riders"
that may work through the House to,
ward the close of the sessions. He
caught several of these last term while

BODY UNKNOWN FOUND

The body of an unknown man was
found in the woods near Edge Moor Mon
day afternoon. The station agent at
Edge Moor notified Chief of Police Mas
sey and he detailed State Detective Wit
sci and Captain Black to make an inves
tigation. The officers found the man
lying on his face and he had evidently
been dead for several days. Near him
was an empty bottle labeled carbolic
acid. There was also evidence of a
struggle and the supposition is that the
man after swallowing the poison crawled
around on the ground in his agony.
Coroner Frick was also notified and
had the remains removed to the morgue.
A receipt was found in one Of the dead
mans pockets for $1.5O. The word Phil
adelphia was on the receipt and it was
made out to F. Richardson and signed
M. s. Bird. A pawn ticket for an over
coat on E. Levy, of Wilmington, was
found in his clothes.
Since the above was put in type the
body has been identified as that of Frank
Richardson, of Boston. He was book
agent and left his boarding house in
Wilmington Friday of last week, on
which day it is supposed he took his life.
