The soft winter has made the mud In
The poorly paved portion Of Wilmington
4 great nuisance, but in Guthrie's lane,
south of Market street bridge, it has
been the source Of great loss and ex-
pense to several business concerns The
mud runs from eighteen inches 20 three
feet IN depth and instead of hauling a
full load Of coal. lumber or other mate
rial along tho street. but half a load can
he hauled. and four horses are required
20 draw il. in many cases, where two
ought to do the work.
In speaking of the matter to a re-
porter Of Every Evening the head of an
industry which has its plant upon that
lane, saidi Il certainly wish you would
tell in your paper the exact condition Of
the bed Of Guthrie's lane II is far
worse than the causeway, and that is
bad enough. Our wagons sink TO the hub
IN carrying but half load and we have
TO put three and four horses TO each
wagon. We have petitioned and com
planned TO the Street and Sewer Depart
ment and all they did was 20 dump ashes
on the lane. which at present makes the
road heavier On days when the sur
face Of the street is frozen the horses
break through the crust and Il cuts their
legs and makes hauling almost impos-
sible."
Among the concerns compelled TO haul
over the road or stop business are the
Mccall Coal Co, tho Cool Spring Ice and
Coal Co, the John A. Cranston Lumber
Co, the Charles 4. Bickta Hair Co., the
Victor Pyle Coal and Lumber Co., the
Diamond Brick Co., the Blumenthal hair
factory and storage house, and the Jones
Guthrie carriage works.
It is said that for the greater part of
this winter the lane has been in its pres
snt condition and Il is only when the
mud is frozen deep enough 10 bear a
team that full load Of anything can be
hauled over IL.

STURGEON FISHERMEN.
Jerseymen Want the Thirteen-inch Mesh
Restored.

The New Jersey Sturgeon Fishermen's
Protective Association. at its annual
meeting, which was held recently, de-
cided TO ask for legislation at Trenton
this winter which win restore the thir-
teen-ihch mesh in sturgeon nets.
The following officers were reelected:
President, Luke u. Carl; vice president,
sylvester Bowen; secretary, Henry j.
Blohmi treasurer, Samuel Snyder.
As shnd as well as sturgeon are becom.
ing scarce in the Delaware River and Bay.
the shad fishermen expressed a desire to
cooperate with tho sturgeon fishermen
IN having enacted legislation which would
protect the fishing industry generally.
There are many reasons advanced for the
disappearance Of the fish, but il seems TO
be generally admitted that the chief
cause Of the scarcity Is the constantly
increasing number Of fishermen and the
more advanced methods used in catching
the fish. In the case of shad it is a we'll
known fact that fifteen years ago the
average net fshed contained fifty pounds
of twines and IL took three men TO fish
It. Now BY the use of these "snap- -shot'i
boats, two men can fish lOO-pound net
This method practically scoops up all the
hsh and few are left 70 spawn With
the sturgeon fishermen usine a net with
a ten-inch mesh lots of small Ash are
caught and sold which should be allowed
TO escape. II is 70 remedy this evil that
a new law will be asked.

MURDERED IN TRANCE

BROCKTON, Mass, May s, 1906
That Ethel Sturtevant the seventeen
year-old girl under arrest at Lebanon, n.
H., for shooting her sweetheart. Jesse
Borden, may be a criminal monstrosity,
is the belief of Dr.. D. A. Dunn and the
police of this city.
After the death of the mother here,
three years ago, with symptoms that
strongly indicated arsenieal poisoning.
Ethel was forced to admit that she had
purchased an ounce OF arsenic, to kill
rats and hid it under the carpet in her
mothers room. The girl was fourteen
years old at the time, and no attempt
was made by the authorities to charge
her with responsibility for her mothers
death.
81 don't believe Ethel will ever be CON
victed for shooting Jesse Borden" said
DR.. Dunn today. "She is girl with a
remarkable brain. Her frances and her
claims that spirits communicate with her
and force her to obev their bidding is
shrewd game of hers to shunt response
bility for her crime
She will convince the trial jurors
that if she shot Borden she was biindly
obeying spirit voices.
81 am glad she went away from here.
AS child she came often TO my office.
Her brain was abnormally developed
At Lebanon the girl continues 20 be
a puzzle to her jailers. Her sweetheart,
Jesse Borden, lies at the point of death
in the hospital but she never inquiries
for him and protests she does rot Be-
liewe he has been shot. She insists that
she heard the voice OF Jesus calling her,
and when she went outside, in answer,
somebody shot at her.
In the revolver found under his pillow
were two empty chambers, but the wound
wound in Bordens breast was made by
a bullet of different calibre.
Sometimes, after a seeming trance, the
girl writes poetry and prose well worthy
Of much older and better educated per-
son. The police are mystifed by the
psychological phase of the case.
