Dover, Del. August s. &C. e.
Fountain, a travelling salesman. Of
Baltimore, was found outstretched
across his bed at the Bayard House
at noon today. After several un-
successful attempts had been made
10 arouse him, bell boy was helped
in over the traEsom. Dr.. II. L Paige
said the man had died OF apoplexy,
and that he lad been dead since s
o'clock last evening. Mr.. Fountain
arrived here Yesterday morning
from FELTON,, and at 6 O'Clock retired
to his room without any dinner,
stating that he was feeling i'll. Pro-
prieter Harry +. Ford forgot a about
the man until this morning, and,
hearing Of no message from his room
thought that his guest was simply
catching some lost sleep. Mr.. Foun-
tain was 55 years old. He was we'll
known all over the peninsula.

Causes a Sensation.
NEW YORK, Aug. G.-The arrival OF
Mrs G. A. Spreckels of San Francisco
was an interesting feature of the end
of the trip Of the Kaiser Wilhelm der
Crosse.
For more than an hour steamship
company employees labored to get her
baggage out of the hold and off the
ship.
She had forty seven trunks and thir-
ty pieces of hand baggage. Nearly all
of the trunks wcr9 new, and all were
marked &C. A. S., Paris"
-Four of Mrs. Sprcckels' maids re-
mained on the pier to unpack the
trunks for the custom house men.
Women crowded ten deep around the
maids, and as trunk after trunk was
opened chorus of feminine eXclama-
tions went up.
No free show of beautiful gowns has
ever been given in this city to COM
pare with the display Of the gowns
of Mrs. Spreckels. Each was a mag
niticent creation.

: A Finished Fight

1t was reported last evening that a
finish prize fight took place early in
the evening in a barn near Marcus
Hook. 1t was learned that the con-
testants were Joe Wilson and Charles
Johns, both OF Philadelphia.
The bout was witnessed by several
hundred Philadelphia sports, who
came to this city and paid 81 for ad.
mission tickets to the mill. Tic fight
was for 500 side.
The ego lasted nine rounds. In
the ninth Wilson by a hard right
hand swing on the jaw, drove his op.
ponement down and out for the
count. Johns soon recovered and ap-
pcarcd to be in good shape.
Both men we're badly beaten about
the face and the fight appeared to be
a draw up until the ninth round, when
Wilson sailed in to Johns from the
time the gong struck and in about
minute and a half had won the
fight.
The bout was on the rough and
tumble order and had little science
about 1t.

Post Office Robbed

consequence no mail was delivered
until after Postal Inspector had
visited the Office and taken an &C.
coun OF stock.
The thieves effected an entrance
bv prying off the shutters OF win.
dow and raising the sash. Once in
side they began the work of destruc'
tion. Letters were torn open in the
search for monev aud a large num-
Der Of postage stamps were stolen.
Thus far neither the postal authori
ties nor the railroad officials have
any clue which is likely to lead to
the detection Of the thieves.
