GETTING READY FOR FRUIT SEASON.
Delaware Railroad Company Proposes Good
Service For Coming Season.

1t is anticipated that this will be
great year for the Delaware railroad,
and it is said that while the farmers
and growers have seen fit not to adopt
any of the suggestions made to them
for facilitating transportation by the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, the
company proposes to give the penin-
sula the best car service this year that
it has ever enjoyed. Such condition
as a scarcity of cars this year, they say
cannot possibly result.
Hundreds of patent refrigerator cars
and some of the new steel freight cars
have been purchased and these with
the ventilator cars already in possession
of the company, will carry away all
the products of the Delaware penin-
sula as fast as they can be grown.

RIGHT CT WAY FOR THE TROLLEY.
Captain Williams New York Engineer Visits
Dover and Lays Out Plans.

Captain W. P. Williams, a we'll
known engineer of New York, who is
to have charge of building the Kent
County trolley road, has been in Dover
this week in consultation with State
Senator J. Frank Alice, who is one of
the directors in the new company, and
together they went over the streets of
Dover through which the cars will
run. It was the intention of the COM
pany to ask privileges of Dover Town
Council at its meeting last Wednes-
night to lay its rails through certain
streets,of that town, but as it was
found out that certain rights of way
had not been granted along the country
roads, it was decided to defer this
action until every detail was ready for
starting the construction of the road.
This will take some little time and
then the company will start at once tc
!, build. While in Dover Captain vii
Jams was in consultation with II
Ridgely Harrington in regard to fur
nishing ties for the road.

Gave Their First Performance iu Newark and
Was a Decided Success.

All Newark turned out Saturday
night, says the correspondent to the
Wilmington Sunday Star, to see the,
Mask and Wig Clubs minstrel show in
the OratorX Hall. The attentive
audience were well repaid by catchy
songs and jokes. The costumes of the
end men were very funny and became
their complexion perfectly. The
specialties were of an interesting turn
and the farce, entitled "The Fresh
men," was both appropriate and well
acted. The Delaware College Orches-
ira furnished music, part of which
was from "FlorodOra. The Glee
Club furnished three selections in
grand style.
The entertainment was both dramat-
ically and financially successful. The
funds will be used for the expenses OF

PROPOSED PLAN FOR THE
NEW FIRE ALARM SYSTEM
SYRENE WHISTLE WILL BE INSTALLED
AT THE WATER WORKS PLANT.
Electric Push Buttons at Different Parts of
Town Will Connect With Bells at Plant
For Notifying the Engineer.

The question Of having better fire
alarm service for the town of Smyrna,
was reported favorably by Councilman
Henry S. Anthony, at the Town COun-
Gil last Friday evening. He said that
a large syrene whistle was on its way,
and would be attached at the Water
Works. The company sending this
have allowed the town thirty days trial
before making the purchase. 1t was
thought to be the best whistle on the
market and one that could be heard in
all parts of the town. In the event of
adopting this means of alarm an cleo
trio push button system will be inau-
gurated, One-wire system with grav-
ity batteries, bells and relays. This
will insure the safest and most com
plete system. Push buttons will be
| placed on Commerce street at the cor
ner of Joseph Smithers; Mt. Vernon
street, near W. NJ. Lewis residence;
South street, near Edward G. Walls
residehce; Delaware and Commerce
streets, near A. f. Fowler's store; al
the "Four Corners; in front of the
residence of James P. Hoffecker, Oh
Main street; in trout of John c. Stock
ly's, on Commerce street, and one al
the Opera House. In case of fire the
alarm can be quickly given at any o
these points instead of running dow
to the bell at the Opera House. TIL,
minute these buttons are touched elec
trio bells are set off at the Powe
House and are kept ringing until th
engineer turns them off. This nc
titles him to blow the big whistle an
start his pumps to working. The Hos
Company will respond as heretofore.

Just at this time of the year, our

ness, and renting his property to J.

establishment. The Cooper store,
occupied by Benton V. Weldon, on
Main Street, formerly the Jefferson
property, is also undergoing a change,
and it too will have a new glass front.
Boyer & COmpany's new place, the
"Cummins Building" at the Four Cor
ners is nearing completion. The cor
ner door entrance, much changes the
appearance of the building, and when
completed will make an improvement
to that part of the town. The "Hirn-

the condition of any of them. There
