JOHN T. DIcKEY. late county
treasurer, said that if he had been
asked in decent manner for the
books of his late office he would
readily have given them up. As it
is now he does not intend to hand
them over and the Levy Court can
not get them. He does not
think he has been treated fairly in
the matter and does not feel that he
deserved the inSinuations cast upon
him by the Levy Court passing the
resolutions. He has settled in full
with the old Levy Court several
years ago and everything found
right. There is always Il right and

WINTER s. Pool charged with
swindling numerous persons through
a bogus loan association, was given
hearing before the Grand Jury in
the United States Court in Baltimore
on Wednesday. He was charged
with the fraudulent use of the Uni
ted States mails and obtaining
money under false pretenses. Sew
eral persons were present at the
hearing from this city. The losses
will run from 800 to $1,000. The
clever manipulation of this scheme
has been working on the people Of
several States for the last seven
years but at last has been arrested
in his swindling career. For some
time numerous Stockholders in the
bogus association had become SuS-
pIcious and set to work to get at
the inside workings of the associa-
ton which had been set before
them in such rosy terms when they
were asked to take stock in it. Re
peated efforts had been made by
'hV7o LII o'i WY w HttNC L wi I'll
rested but they were unsuccessful.
Then the case was put into the
hands of Postoffice Inspector Viii
liam Maxwell and it was not many
days afterwards before he was al
rested and locked up.
Like a good many other loan as
sociations which have been hoated
i'll our city from the West they have
nearly all gone by the board leaving
those who had taken stock in them
minus what they had paid in. The
crash III some cases comes before
the loans have run more than three
years, while in others the victims
had paid in five years or more.
Strangers with glib tongues and
lots Of printed matter strike our
city and then secure their victims
Just as easy as suckers are caught
in the spring and fall with dip nets.
While we feel sorry for those who
lose their money they should be
sure OF the men at the head of it
before investing their money in
them.

THE manner i'll which the gentle
men connected with the MontroSe
real estate enterprise advertise their
lots, is an object lesson to some
Wilmington men who have tried the
same business. The managers
well know that the first step is to
get the people interested, the next
to get the lots well advertised and
then they are more than half sold.
In less than a month they have sold
81 building lots, which speaks for
itself. If you want II good healthy

Team of Horses% )
Needed to Assist )
Department in ~ s
Reaching Fires. {

The city dads should make some effor
whereby the fire department can more
quickly reach the scene of fire. The
hook and ladder is heavy affair, as is
also each of the hose carts. The men can
not be expected to run "a mile or two at
very fast clip and at the same time pull
heavy load.
The idea has been suggested, and it is
good one, that the city purchase team
of horses to pull the wagons to the scene
of a conaagration. The team could be
worked on the street near the City hall,
aud when the alarm sounded the man
working them could quickly reach the
hall and make start with the fire appa-
ratus. The boys could then follow and be
on hand in plenty of time. Another
scheme would be to offer prizes to drivers
of vehicles. For instance, if the alarm
sounded, some expressman or any other
driver of team would be encouraged to
haul the hooks or hose to the fire. Sup
man who got to the scene first with a
wagon, and the second man be awarded
with $3.50. This would prove to be of
interest and much property would there
by be saved.
Let the council at its next meeting take
this matter up. 1t should be attended to
at once. If 1t is not looked after at an
early date, it may be too late to save
property belonging to the citizens of this
city.
Lineman Gibbs of the electric COM
pany disappeared during the fire. 1t is
the duty of Mr.. Gibbs to cut the wires on
the premises where the fire is burning,
and following out instructions he entered
the shed which was burning. While at
work about twenty men overturned the
building into the flowing waters of Clear
creek, and the result was that the electri-
clan disappeared. Down the stream he
went, part of the time under water and
part on top. With the aid of small boys
Gibbs was pulled out, none the worse sor
his bath.

Blaze atthe
Big Five1

1t looked for while last Monday after
moon as though the entire buildings be-
longing to the Big Five company at the
funnel would be destroyed by fire.
The alarm was sounded about $3.50
o'clock in the afternoon, and it was
nearly half hour before the FIRE boys
reached the scene. They were slow in
assembling at the hall, and some delay
was caused in getting someone to haul
the hook and ladder to the conhagration.
The fire broke out in a shed back of the
house occupied by Pete Nelson, an en-
Ploye of-the company. The houses are
within one hundred feet of the machinery
buildings, and the entire force of the
s-unnel was called into service in order to
protect that and the surrounding build
tngs.
The blaze had gained considerable
sheadway before it was discovered. Mrs.
Nelson was sitting in the parlor of the
house sewing when her little boy, 3 years
sold, came rupning in and said that there
was fire in the shed directly back of the
house. Mrs. Nelson hurried out and found
hat the blaze had reached the back of
her house and gave promise of spreading.
She gave the alarm and Superintendent
Stewart, of the Big Five, called out the
force at work. In the meantime, the
Aalarrn had been sent in, but the depart
Inent was so slow in responding that it
became necessary to overturn the first
building that caught fire. 1t landed in
4he creek below. The larger house, which
Che fire did not reach, was quickly emp
2ied of its furniture, as was the one occu-
pied by Mr.. Nelson.
Just how the fire started is not known,
put Mrs. Nelson is of the opinion that il
vas set by her boy. There was no fire in
any of the stoves, and it is thought that
he youngster secured some matches, and
Fn his play ignited some shavings.
The property is owned by the Big Five
company. The loss will not exceed $500.
Fully insured.

RAN OVER BY HOSE CART.
E. L. Whitaker Severely Injured Tuesday
Night.


Night.
E. L. Whitaker proprietor of the bowl
ing alleys, met with severe accident
Tuesday night while running with the
hose team. The team was making its
first practice run, and had reached the
point where the man pulls the hose for
the purpose of making connection with
the water hydrant, when Whitaker Slip
ped. He succeeded in getting clear of
the other men, but for some reason his
harness caught and drew him back, the
cart passing over his hips.
The cart was stopped as soon as posi-
BILE and the runners assisted the wounded
man in every way they could. Dr.
George Atcheson was called and removed
Whitaker to his home where he make an
examination of the injuries 1t was found
that three ribs had been broken, and in
addition to this Whitaker was badly
bruised.
This is the second accident that has be-
fallen Whitaker in the last three weeks
While standing on ladder in his place
of business, he fell and sprained his right
hand.
1t is not thought any internal injuries
will result from the accident Tuesday
evening, but Whitaker will be incapaci-
tated for work for some time.
Running with fire team is danger
GUS thing, and too much care cannot be
given the selection of proper harness for
the men. 1t should be inspected every
day, to see that the snaps are in good
working order.

MOST ABLE ADDRESS.
:. C. King, ex-Confederate Soldier, Hon
ored Memorial Day.

1t is seldom that one has the pleasure
bf listening to an address which was as
full of interest as that delivered on Me-
Fnorial Day by A. c. King at the Memorial
Exercises IN the opera house. Mr.. King
Evas a confederate soldier and fought
throughout the civil war. He was firm
believer of the doctrines set down by the
people by deciding that the United States
hould no longer have jurisdiction over
|he southern states.
1t was an honor bestowed upon man
hat he will not forget during this life
Ind the address was worthy of the one
\ pom whom it was conferred. Mr. King
demonstrated himself a man of broad
|iews and believer in the future of this
|eountry. He is man who is glad that
|he old memories which separated the
North and South for so many years have
been forever closed.
Mr.. Kings speech was full of logic and
Vas masterful effort. He showed that
he American people in this great United
plates CouIu never again DC ulSSolVeu IN
| heir opinions. He proved beyond any
|loubt that what the north wanted SO also
lid the south. He was glad he was an
american and he was glad he was native
|f the south. He appreciated the honor
! f being chosen to address the members
# the G. A. R. of this city and praised
hem for the gallant service thew rem
cred this country forty years ago..

up in front of the City hall for the pur-
pose of having their photographs taken,
little Lorraine Rowe, years old, crawled
through the fence. She was looking for
her papa, but on account of the uniforms
worn by the lodge she espied Joe Boyd.
They all looked alike to her and fatherly
and tenderly Joe took her in his arms just
as the artist snapped the camera. 1t was
sometime before Joe could convince her
that he was not her father, but by taking
off his stovepipe hat Lorraine saw her mis-
take. In the course of events she found
her father, and by a unanimous consent
Lorraine was adopted as the mascot of the
lodge.
