THE SUSSEX CONVENTION.

How the Orders of Boss Addieks Were
Carried Out, Under the Supervision OF
Secretary Layton.
Special Correspondence of Every Evening
Georgetown. Aug. 20. With never a
cheer, never a speech, never a we'll
regulated kick did the delegates to the
Union Republican County Convention
do the bidding of the grand master OF
the party, Addicks, at their county
convention held here yesterday, as
given out by his understudy, Caleb r.
Layton. From the opening to the close
there was an utter void of snap, in
terest or self-assertion, save a few con-
tests, in which those who dared to
doubt the wisdom of the leader went
down in defeat. The first contest was
for register of wills, for which ID. ].
Layton had been slated but someone
sprung Daniel Short on the convention.
One ballot fixed him and he went down
to the tune of 20 to q and Layton took
his stand upon the ticket as one of the
bones thrown to the Regulars, selected
by his nephew, DIR. Layton.
A. e.. Archer of Cedar Creek won
the nomination for recorder Of deeds.
to which he had been assigned, on the
fifth ballot, in field of five. The
other contestants were G. N. White,

mated for State treasurer; he is a
Regular and is the second of the two

ACCIDENTS AT MILFORD.

Tramp Injured by Runaway Team
Horses Head Pierced by Fork.
Special Correspondence of Gazette aud Journal.
Milford, Aug. 20.-A tramp, whose name
was not ascertained, barely escaped serious
injury Monday night while attempting to
stop runaway team owned by Frisby Kirby
OF Milford Neck and driven by $. T.. Kirby,
who had just returned to Milford from
seven years stay in Philadelphia. \ The
horses became frightened while standing
in front of the red mill, and dnshed into
North Front street, which contained many
pedestrians and teams. The tramp hero
ically sprang in front of the runaway horses,
and checked their progress; but he was
dashed to the ground, and the heavy wagon
passed over his shoulders. He arose badly
bruised and bleeding, and hurried away
without being identified.
A peculiar and possibly fatal accident
happened to one of Windsor Bros fine
horses Monday night. A pair of sharp forks
had been thoughtlessly left hanging in the
stall near the horses head, and when the
animal raised its head one of the pronqs
entered the flesh above the left eye. In its
agony the horse forced the steel shaft almost
through the length Of its head before the
noise made by the beast aroused The stable
boy. The horse was go maddened by pain
that 1t took several men to manage 1t while
the fork was being removed. II Is thought
the animal will recover if lockjnw does not
set in,

luton, to make the county chairmen
OK oflioio members of the State COM
nlittee In tho past the county chair
men have been members by virtue of
their Offices without any action on the
part of the committee, and when the
new committee met yesterday after
noon some supposed tho same plan
would be followed and Robert G.
Houston, the Sussex county chairman,
was nominated for temporary chair
man., George L. Townsend, the now
nember of the committee from rural
New Castle county, objected, on the
ground that he should first be formally
recognized as q member. On account
of this objection the nomination was
withdrawn and the honor went to Mr..
Swain. The action admitting the
county chairmen followed.
1t is said that Merritt N. Willis of
Middletown, president of tho New
Castle county Levy Court, was slated
for place on the committee, but
friends of Mr.. Townsend worked in his
interests, whereupon Mr.. Willis with
drew, which left the way open for Mr..
Townscnd's election.
An effort will probably be made to
induce Edmund Mitchell, Jr., to ac-
oept the craftsmanship of the new State
Committee.
