THE BEST REMEDY FOR GROUP.

From the Atchison, Kan. Daily Globe.
This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedies for Group
is in demand in every neighborhood.
One of the most terrible things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle of
the night by whoop from one of the
children. The croupremedies are almost
as sure to be lost, in case of Group, as a
revolver is sure to be lost in case of bur
glars. There used to be an old-fashioned
remedy for Group, known as hive syrup
and tulu, but some modern mothers say
that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
better, and does not cost so much. 1t
causes the patient to throw up the
phlegm' quicker, and gives relief in a
shorter time. Give this remedy as soon
as the croupy cough appears and it will
prevent the attack. 1t never fails and is
pleasant and safe to take. For sale by
NJ. r. Burt, Druggist.

James McCaffery Loses His Case.

In the case of James McCaffery vs..
Nathaniel b. .ThOms for false arrest and
Imprisonment in August Of 1901, which
was tried in the Kent Court this week
at Dover, the jury gave a verdict for
Thomas after being out only out
five minutes This throws the cost On
Mr.. McCaffery and eXhonerates Mr..
Thomas from all eensuTe in the case.
1t will be 1emem bered that Thomas
arrested McCafIery yforinterference wi h
an officer while making an arrest, and
that McCaffery was permitted to go
without any fine at the hearing before
the Alderman, and from that fact the
damage suit grew. One gratifying point
in this case is the fact of rulings made
by the court on points of law raised by
the prosecuting lawyers. Messrs Daily
& Hutton, which clear away the er-
roneOus idess that have grown up for
some unknown reason as to the right
of an officer to make an arrest, and the
right of Town Council to make Ordin-
ances. In the charter of the town,
section Is gives to a town bailiff, or
policeman, the rights of "a constable 10
arrest without warrant; it also has an
auxiliary clause giving the additional
power for them to make an arrest on
the order of a member of Council or
Alderman, even though he, the police
man, was not present at the time of the
breach of the peace On this point the
prosecution claimed that Thomas was
exceeding his authority in making this
particular arrest without warrant.On
the grounds that the ordinance under
which the arrest was made was illegal
and beyond the powers of Council 10
enact On this point the court ruled
that section II of the charter Of the
Town OF Milf rd gave The Town Cauu-
ell the lieht TO MAKE not on " that ar
cuar ordinance. but any other rdin-
anre that compiled with the ch 4rter,
AMI which would not conflict with the
laws Of the State of Della are or the
II ittd states. The rnling that Thomas
was not exceeding his authnity, and
tn t the organic laws and ordinances
of the town are not to be questioned,
must have a salu'Ory effect on law and
order in Milford. Mr. NcCahery sued
70 $1,000 damage OF character, and the
jury has decided the case there was no
cause for action on his part As no
exception were made to the rulings on
evidence. or on the charge of the judges
TO the jury, no appeal to higher court
can he made, even if it were desired.
Henry Ridgely, Jr., the regular council
for the town, and Watson Harrington,
Esq, conducted the case for Thomas.

Jas. P. Lofiand.
Preparationsare being made as rapida
ly as possible for the laying of con-
crete pavement in front ofthe Postoffice
and the adjoining property now Oc@
cupied by Hopkins & Melvin.
The sidewalk of Mrs. Sallie Davis
on Walnut street, beginning at Second
street and running to the foot of the
hill, has been cut down and graded by
the town. This is a decided improve
ment. The reason that the work has
been done at the expense of the town
is that Mrs. Davis gave the town q
tract of land sufficient to open road
from Second street, west of Walnut, out
to Franklin avenue, thus completing
Pear street.
Mrs. Elizabeth Clark has been given
notice to cut down the sidewalk in
front of her property from Second ST.
to the Terminus of her property line.
When this improvement is made it will
be more safe for pedestrians and de-
cidely increase the beauty of that part

RoTK to do that called her attention

them fora few minutes and wasstartled
at the loud report OF a gun and screams.
When she reached the back yard a
horrible sight met her gaze. Her daugh-
ter was lying on the ground almost
lifeless with ber brains oozing out, and
also saw Lohand running toward the
woods with a gun in his hand. Her
loud screams with the report of the
Gun and the screams Of her daughter,
aroused the neighbOrs, who were -Cou
ON the scene. Upon inquiry from the
neighbors it was learned that Mrs.

ing to the woods with gun ia hand,
