MAKE four FLATS
Worknen Are Remodeling Negus
Homestead on Second
Avenue.
is CHANGED TO APARTMENTS
Size of Structure More Than Doubled
Considerable Expense Involved in
Improvement.

Rapid progress is being made
on the work of remodeling the
Negus homestead. which the
owner. William o. Negus, is convert
ing into four modern apartments. The
building. when completed, will be the
finest apartment house. without excep-
ton. in the three cities. Contractor
Frank Simmons expects to complete
the contract and turn the building over
TO Mr.. Negus. by Nov. /.
The original Negus homestead. Sec
ond avenue and Thirteenth street. has
been enlarged by building a large ad-
dition in the rear and the size of the
structure has been more than doubled.
The fats viii contain so large. we'll ar
ranged rooms. and four bath rooms.
The building will be divided into four
fats. the two on the first floor con
tanning seven rooms each. and the
apartments on the second floor includ-
ing eight rooms. IN addition to the
bath rooms.
The general contract for the rebuild
ing was let by Mr.. Negus to Mr.. Sim
mons, and when the building is com
pleted, il will be a structure of which
both the owner and the contractor
will be justly proud. The sub-contracts
were let by Mr.. Simmons to the fol
lowing: Masonry. c. J. Larkin: plumb
ing Rosenfield Bros. fixtures and wir-
ing, B. E WATSON; painting and deco
rating. Pardon Wall Paper company !:
plastering, Charles Thompson.
Represents Large Expenditures.
The building will be finished
throughout in a thoroughly modern
manner. Every convenience is to be
installed Combining the peculiar old
fashioned interior finish OF the front
part of the house with the modern ar,
rangement and finish in the newer
part. the building will provide particu-
larry attractive homes. The improve
ment represents a large expenditure
fully justified by the increased value OF
the property.
Though large crews have been EN-
ployed continually. the work of reno
deling the homestead has required
nearly four months. One of the
unique features in connection with the
flats will be an automobile house for
the accommodation of machines owned
by tenants. The automobile house will
be brick building. 20X20. standing al
the rear of the flats.

IF those who are advocating the
election of a Senator by the present
Legislature will suggest just how
such an election can be accom-
Plished, the people of Delaware
would be happy to learn of the
method, and will be quick to adopt
1t. We can see no other way than
for all Republican members of the
Legislature to pledge themselves to
elect a Senator, and then all gather
into one CAUCUS to select the nomi-
nee, abiding by the will of the ma
jority. This is a sure way, and a
way that will settle the whole oues-
tion. 1t appears to us to be the
only way possible; but then per-

not the perspicuousness of those
who believe, or profess to believe.

There Is the farmer who keeps no books

who always has a heavy mortgage hang

farming by the improved agricultural
implements was unknown. He ships his
crops without the least knowledge of
market conditions, and were any one to
suggest to him that he could use the tel
ephone and asceI tain the best markets
before shipping the produce, he would
laugh at the idea. This is the man that
complains that farming does not paw.
On the other hand there is the man
who runs his farm on strict business prin-
ciples, and who knows as much about tile
profit and loss account as any one else.
He knows the value of his land and what
to do with it. He welcomes every labor.
