Miss Edith Reese, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. r. G. Reese, died shortly
after seven o'clock yesterday morning
after a lingering illness from con-
sumption. She had been in failing
health for year or more, but it was
only two weeks ago that she was taken
to her bed. The deceased was about
% years of age, and there is general
regret that she should have been cut
down IN young womanhood at time
when she was so much comfort to her
parents. She was a bright young
lady and despite the deadly grip of
the disease she was cheerful and
made the best of her condition.
Death found her ready and willing to
go and when the summons came she
passed peacefully to the Great Be-
You'd. Besides her parents she is sur
vived by two sisters and a brother.

Delaware railroad is preparing for
the heavy fruit and vegetable season
which is expected on. the Peninsula.
Friday five new locomotives arrived
at the round-hOuse at Todd's Cut.
They are of the E. 2 type and are
specially designed for hauling freight
trains at fast rate of speed. They
are monster engines and will be put
on the Delaware division. The mo-
tive power on this road has been
crippled on account of many of the
engines being old and worn. These
will be repaired as fast as possible and
by the time the vegetables begin to
arrive in Wilmington markets the
motive power will be greatly aug
mented.

The double track system of the
Delaware railroad from Wilmington
to Harrington was opened last Tues
day morning. The railroad has been
using the double track as far as
Dover for month, but the additional
track across the new bridge at Pun
cheon Run was not completed until
this week. 1t is proposed to have the
entire system double tracked to Del
mar very soon. With the advent of
the new system the travelling public
will be guaranteed safer and quicker
service.

1t is reported that the N. Y. P. &
n. r. R. have prepared plans and are
perfecting arrangements to double
track the road from Delmar to Cape
Charles. 1t is said that other large
improvements are in contemplation
for the road. This is in line with the
Delaware Railroad improvements and
is no doubt to be made for the rapid
transit of the amount of Southern
fruits and vegetables.

= OKIO. March 15.-It IS strongly be-
lieved here that the Russian fleet

Vice Admiral Togo is unwilling TO run
