STOLEN COAL
NOT 50 CHEAP.
Bushel Bag Full Costs Mrs.
Annie Murcham Just S7.7O
and Much Ignominy.
TOOK IT FROM COAL CAR.
Officers of the Company Who
Spent Night in Car Caught
Woman at Work Early
This Morning.

Many persons in Wilmington have
been receiving their--ot4 supply by
the take it. line. While sufficient
ly able to buy coal they have been
running the risk of stealing it.
People living on Church Lane
have been making wholesale on
sluu@,hts on coal cars along the z.
b. and w. Railroad and yesterday
III orning they succeeded III carrying
three tons from two cars. Railroad
detectives and police determined to
break up the thieving, secreted
themselves in box car this morn
ing and shortly after | o'clock their
vigilance was rewarded by seeing
Mrs. Annie Murcham, accompanied
by boy. come to the railroad from
Church Lane.
She had Il piece Of burlap which
she used as "a shawl and later turned
into Il bag. The woman lost no
time in boarding Il coal car and had
GOT about bushel of the anthracite
when special officer Joyce placed
her under arrest. The boy succeed
ed in making his escape. The
woman fought 50 desperately for
escape that four officers were
obliged t. assist her to the patrol
box.
In the City Court this morning
the woman denied that she had
taken the coal. The evidence against
her was conclusive, however,
whereupon Judge Townsend imposed
a fine OF s. and costs for trcspaSs.
The police say that every cellar
in Church Lane contains a good sup
ply OF coal. Some of the more daring
pcrsous living on the Lane have
been selling coal to less fortunate
neighbors.
Mr.. Murcham is said to earn S6 a
week and, in addition to payin. rent
supports himself, his wite and four
children. He is considered a genuine
twentieth century economist as he
had S64 with him wnen he went to
pay his wife's fine.
a. coal is selling in Wilmington
for 81 ton, 1t would have been
che per for Mrs. Murcham to have
bought that quantity for the half
bushel she had IN the bag cost her
husband Just s. 20 which includes
of course, the cost of the lime lost
by her husband IN visiting her at
the police station.

HOLLY is SCARCE.
Crop VIII be Hardly More Than One Third
OF The Usual One.

For tile first time in many years tn e
holly crop is very short. The new 8
has alarmed decor at ors in the large
Northern, ElsLcrn and Western
cities. where an enormous quantity
o! this beautiful evergreen with the
red berry is used Annually in decor t
ing the residences Of the ealthy. 1t
has been estimated that there will
be hardly more than one-third OF the
usual crop, scarcely enough to sup
ply the local demand. There is said
to be plenty OF the foliage but the
bushes are practically bare of berries
Without the latter there's little sale
for the green.
Perhaps comparatively few per-
sons are aware of how much holly is
used. Never less than 100 carloads
are shir ped from this State annually
to the various markets. 1t is packed
in boxes weighing from sixty to
eIghty pounds each and sold at whole
sa lie at from two to four cents a
pound Several local firms have
