subcommittee were necessary to car
ry on the work. The committee as

that he will do his full share in what
to act.
The committee of arrangements ap-
pointed, there vas some discussion as
to the place for holding the celebra-
ton, Mr.. Terry suggesting hat it be
held in the city. Mr.. Winslow sug-
gested the fair ground, and in this Mr..
Stickney acquiesced, suggesting the
free use of the grounds and the excel
lent race tracks, where some races
could be arranged, the people taking
TO horse racing with a good deal of
pleasure.
A number of gentlemen spoke along
this line. there being some expression
about the use Of firecrackers on the
streets of the city and the power of
the mayor and marshal to prevent the

which brighten horses and sometimes
cause accidents and death. Marshal
Sigman believed he could control the
matter.

of its chairman, Mr.. Hurt. Acting
Mayor Spicer rendering the free use
of the city hall for that purpose.
The races at the fair grounds will
be between local horses, some Of the
horsemen present suggesting that a

a faster professional race, with nothing
at stake but the finishing first under
the wire.

Tomatoes Bring 50 Cents per Basket.

Tomatoes brought the unprecedented
price of SO cents basket at the Nassau
Cannery, Lewes, one day last week.
This price breaks therecord as paid by
any Gamer in this State. 1t was
brought about by battle between the
Gamers and commission agents. These
agents often come to buy the tomatoes
from growers right at the canning
house doors. 1t put the Gamers into
a fighting mood, and they determined
to put the prices at such figure that
the commission men could not afford
to buy and ship them. The growers
who did not contract are reaping the
benefit of the struggle. Those who
contracted last spring at about nine
cents per basket are undergoing Sc
