SEEK PARDON FOR OLD CRIME

Three applications for pardons came
before the Board of Pardons last week
reviving interest in one of the biggest
sensations that Delaware has ever known.
Nine years ago the headless body of Noah
Benson, colored, of Delaware City, was
found floating in the Delaware & Chesa-
peake Canal, and George Fl. Hutt, Daniel
H. Miller and James johnson were con-
victed of implication, though there was
no evidence that they had actually
murdered the man. After nearly nine
years in Jail they are seeking pardon. A
singular coincidence is that Chancellor
Nicholson, of the Board, was the Attorney
General who prosecuted the three men,
and that Peter L. Cooper Jr., late Deputy
Attorney General, was the lawyer who
served as their counsel.

FISHERIES UNPRoFITABLE

Fishermen down the bay say the pre-
sent will be short and improbable shad
and herring season for the Eastern Shore
fisheries. The prevailing winds have
been east, wherefore the fish have worked
ND on the Western side of the Chesa-
peake. The Virginia and Western Shore
of Maryland rivers, where shad never
babitua.e at all, are full of the fish, while
they are very scarce in all their usual
waters from the Pocomoke to the Sas-
safras on the Eastern Shore. The Sus-
ouehanna with doutless soon be replete
with shad. Besides there has been SO
much rough weather fishermen were very
late in getting their traps down, so that
the first run of herring got up the Chop
tank without molestation by the down
river fishermen. The failure will likely
give Caroline more than the usual supply

MANY CHANGES

Since the Delaware railroad and its
several feeders have been under the con-
troll of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany many radical changes have been
made in the road-bed, rolling stock,
station appointments and operation. Now
it is proposed to take up the light rails
from Wilmington to Delmar and substi-
tute 85-pound steel rails therefor. As
rapidly as possible the process of double
tracking the road by siding extensions
will be carried out and in a few years the
system will be in condition to accom-
modate the increasing traffic without
delay incident to lay overs for trains to
meet and pass Considering that it is a
single-tract system the expedition and
safety which characterize its operation are
remarkable.

Something New Under

All Doctors have tried to cure CAs
TARRH by the use of powders, acid

Their powders dry up the mucuous men,

have aimed to cure, while pastes and
olntments cannot reach the disease. An

Tor many years made close study ard

the members started out in two's and
three,s in different directions. After
searching the country all day long he was
found about o'clock in the evening
about three miles from his home, pacing
up and down along the banks OF Duck

and when asked concerning his actions,
alihe would say was that he could not
decide whether to die or not.
He was taken to bis home and is now
no doubt glad that the matter was hard
to decide. Mr.. Timms is man of some
means and owns half dozen buildings in
Clayton, all of which are rented to ten
ants. He also is a newsdealer and sue

and wife. The cause of him wanting to
