OWNER GETS VERDICT FOR HIS DOC.
Farmer Near Milford Must Pay Fifty Dollars
With Interest for Shooting the Registered
Animal. Legal Status Of Dogs.

Smyrna dog owners have been given
new hope by decision handed down
IN Dover recently, fixing the status of
registered dogs. Since the recent dog
ordinance went into effect there has
been more or less discussion over what
is termed personal property" a
jury in superior court at Dover, Thurs
day, returned with a verdict for r. T.
Harrington, the plaintiff, allowing him
$50 damages, full damage claimed for
the loss of his dog with interest against
William f. Hall. The verdict estab-
fishes some new law and a decidedly
new precedent of great interest to
owners of registered hunting dogs
that the owner of lands is not justified
in shooting down a dog running a fox,
even across forbidden lands. unless
/ the dog be caught in the act of de-
! strOying live stock, or in some extreme
emergency. When dog becomes reg
istered it is regarded in the eyes of the
law as personal property and if killed
illegally, its owner is entitled to dam
ages by action in law. If however the
dog is discovered in the act of killing
poultry or other live stock, he may be
shot by the over OF the premises. 1t
is thus that Judge Boyce in delivering
his charge to the jury fixes the legal
status of the registered dog. 1t is be
lieved that the jury. although made up
of farmers, would haye assessed
heavier damages upon William E. Hall,
the farmer who ordered the dog shot,
but for the fact that the court in
structed them that only the amount
claimed by the plaintiff as the value Of
the dog could be returned,

SUNDAY TRAIN SERVICE IN THE STATE.
Service Will Be Started on May 10th aud Will
Be Great Convenience TO Down State People.

Persons living down the state are
anxiously awaiting the arrival of Sun
day, May Goth, on which day Sunday
trains will be inaugurated on the Del
aware Railroad. The opening of the
Sunday system will prove a great con-
venience to persons who are employed
in Wilmington, for in the past it was
necessary for S'Ich persons to isave or
the midnight train on Saturday and
return on the midnight train Sunday.
Now it will be made possible for the
patrons of the road to go and return
the same day. The time of the trains
will be included in the regular spring
schedule soon to be announced. 1t
has been stated by one railroad man
that he did not think the new Sunday
schedule would include the Smyrna
Branch. Therefore patrons of the road
going from or coming to Smyrna will
have to get the hack or some other
conveyance to take them to or bring
them from Clayton. This is another
case where Smyrna may be left in the

PORT PENN FISHERMAN ENDS HIS LIFE

Charles Bender Brother Of Mrs John B. Webb
OF Smyrna Swallows Laudanum.
Disheartened because of the small
amount of money he made at fishing
and worried on account of family
troubles, Charles Bender a fisherman
living at Port Penn and brother of Mrs
John B. Webb of Smyrna ended his life
on Saturday by swallow ing an ounce
of laudanum. Bender on Saturday
morning procured the drug and after
taking several drinks of liquor to brace
up his nerves swallowed the laudanum.
Friends of the unfortunate man upon
learning what he had done, at once
notified Drs. Bellevile and Ellis of
Delaware City and they fastened to
his aid. The case was a hopeless one,
however, from the start and Bender
died Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock
Just eight hours after he had swallowed
the fatal dose. The dead man, who is
middle-aged, leaves a wife, living in
ST. Georges and several grown children
who are scattered about the country.

There was only one relief to the worn

bivouac on the night of Dec. 81. There
was comparatively little of the bicker-
ing, aggravating picket firing which
had been the rule of the nights ever
since the advance from Nashville be-

exhausted, and they were sick of the
