During the conference with tho Colom-
bians ashore Lieutenant Perrill was BUR
rounded by General Ortiz's staff. while
inland a few PAGES there was a semicircle
Of armed sentinels. Tho beach in both
directions was also lined with sentinels.
General Ortiz did not permit Lieutenant
Perrill to leave the point of the beach
where he landed.
While PERIL was awaiting the Colom-
bian protest First Lieutenant Edward B.
Manwaring. commanding the marine
guard Of tho Atlanta, rowed up in cut
ter for the purpose Of communicating with
Lieutenant Perrill and to gain certain mil
itary Information. Lieutenant Manwaring
went ashore and the cutter Joined the
whaleboat on the beach.
Lieutenant Perrill returned to the At
lanta at o'clock in the afternoon. Lieu
tenant Manwaring. before returning,
pulled in the cutter along the coast, OBJ
serving the Colombians' camp.

You are citizens Of powerful coun-
try. Immensely rich and possessing vast
numbers Of inhabitants On the contrary,
we arc bankrupt and our immense terri

GOD ON OUR SIDE"
DO not doubt 1t. The God of nations
will be on our side. Against him squad

The Colombians carefully and systemat-
ically made efforts to avoid furnishing
any information as to what purposes had
brought them 10 the Gulf. or whether
they were building road toward the Re-
public OF Panama. But, it can be said
that they were awaiting superior orders.
In the meantime there is n strong prob
ability that they are building road to-
ward Panama. The distance separating
Tituma:i and Yaviza. where American
marines are stationed. is sixty miles.

There were repeated cries Of Viva Co
lombia" and there was sudden copcen-
tration Of $50 Colombian soldiers on the
beach.
For some moments the situation ap-
peared dangerous and had the appearance
Of an embuscade. General Ortiz appeared
on the beach when Lieutenant Perrill went
ashore the whaleboat in the meanwhile
lying close to the beach. General Ortiz
insisted that Lieutenant Perrill should fly
the Colombian flag at the bow Of the
whaleboat, or lower the American flag
Mt her stern, because she was in Colon
bian waters. Lieutenant Perrill replied
that he did not have a Colombian flag.
and refused to lower the Stars and
Stripes.
General Ortiz did not insist upon his
so doing. but he protested in writing
against the presence Of the American in
Colombian waters. Lieutenant Pe-rill ac-
cepted the protest and conveyed it to
Commander Turner. who handed 1t to

Peaches and Keller Pears Suffer Most but
There is Hope for PIums and Other Fruit
Fruit Growers in this vicinity have
very little hope of even an ordinary
fruit crop this season. They say the
extreme cold weather Of February xii
led at least One-half Of the buds. and
the frosts and ice of the last three
weeks heve killed near three fourths
OF what remained. When the june
drop" is over it is not likely manv
peaches will remain on the trees. The
first bloom of the strawberries were all
killed, but there will be enough left
from the other blooms to make nearly
full crop if nothing happens later
The plum trees are covered with blooms
and small fruit, but some are of the
opinion that they are badly hurt.
Cherries seem to be all right and there
is every indiction of large crop. The
grapes seem to be slightly injured.
Taking it altogether there is not much
encouragement for the Delaware fruits
grower for large crop this season.

session last Friday evening with all
present except Councilman John G.

mitted the delinquent tax list for 1901
and 1902, which was taken up care
fully by the Council. The uncollected
taxes on 1901 duplicate amounts to
about $1,000 and the 1902 list about
S303.OO, making total yet due the
town of $4,000 As the 1901 list is
nearly Outlawed, tine Council is oblired
to make collections before the 1903

inn the coal supply for the month of
May. The Council has not yet placed
the contract for the year, and as coal
is needed at the plant, Chairman
Grieves of the Light and Water Com
mlttee, wanted some action taken bv
the Council instructing him where to
get the coal. Estimates were fur
nlshed by A. E. Jardine of this town.
and the Bailey Coal Company of Phila-
delphia. A. E. Jardine was the low
est bidder, but some wanted to try the
Bailey coal. After considerable dis
cusslon Secretary Grieves was author
lzed to get two carloads from each
dealer and to give the two a test. The
above bids called for soft coal. A.E.
Jardlne's bid was $3.55 per ton at
Smyrna Landing wharf and SO. rs per
ton delivered at the plant. Bailey &
Company's bid with approximated
freight charges was $3.50 per ton at
Smyrna depot and the Town Hauler
was to take said coal to the plant.
Leaving out the hauling, Mr.. Jardine's
bid was 10 cents per ton lower than
Bailey & Co.
The following bills were allowed:
