him. Cristoforo testified that the boy
came to him with the watch, which

tai and said that he found it. He de-
MED that he stole it. He then gave
the boy % cents for it. Cristoforo

located In Wards flats. A fine of $50
and costs was imposed and an appeal
under bonds of 500 was taken by his

First of a Series of Winter
Entertainments Given by
Merchants Association
TRADING STAMPS DISCUSSED

Eden Hall last evening was crowded
with members Of the Wilmington Mer-
camille Association and their friends,
the event being the first of a series Of
entertainments arranged for the win
ter.
The first part OF the evening was
given over to a social session in the ma
ture of a smoker and an interesting
program was introduced. During the
intermission the business Of the asso-
ciation was transacted and the commit
tee on trading stamps asked that the
time for disseminating the use Of
stamps be extended until such a time
as would be selected at the next meet
ing November / had been the original
date selected but this had been disap-
proved by some of the merchants.
L. L. Peacock invited all merchants
present who were not members of the
association to join as soon as possible
and explained TO them the advantages
of such an organization.
Josiah Marvel, the counsel for the as
sociation, made the address of the
evening. He congratulated the MEM
bers upon the good work so far accom-
plished and spoke particularly of the
competition which merchants are COM
PEELED to meet. He believed that ninety
per cent. Of the purchases made by VIII
mington people in Philadelphia could
be made as cheaply here. He advised
the merchants to secure the good will
and wishes of the people of this city, to
hold that good viii by the merit OF their
goods and their manner of dealing and
to let the people know the merits Of
their goods.
In concluding his address Mr. Marvel
said:
Il cannot close without congratulate
ing the members Of this association
upon it's success. The great increase in
your membership in so short a time,
the interest which you have taken in
public matters. the generous regard
which you have shown for the opinions
Of each other in the discussion Of mat
ters which have come before you, all
tend to show an earnestness and an
interest which bespeaks a greater, sue
cess and a more weighty influence in
the future"
After the business meeting the enter
Ainment was continued. The events
included Agoston. the card king;
Charles Bradley, the musician; the Mill
ship Sisters, Mabel Rea, the vocalist
and several others.

CHIEF BLACK DOES NOT
BELIEVE MURDER THEORY
Places No Significance in Fact
That Her Watch Cannot
Be Found

The latest development in the mys-
tery surrounding the death Of Miss
Mabel Woodward was brought to light
today when it became known that the
watch which she wore could not be
found and IN consequence the theory is
advanced that she might have been
robbed and murdered. Chief of Police
Black, however. said there was no
doubt but that the woman committed
suicide. He said the watch the de-
ceased wore had not been running and
had been probably left with a watch
maker in this city by Miss woodward
for repairs. He has ordered a search
made for the missing timepiece.
The funeral of the dead woman took
place this morning from the home OF
her parents near IIockessin. The
Friends service was held and inter-
ment made in the Friends cemetery al
Hockessin. Many friends Of the de-
ceased viewed the remains
