The above is the title to new and

who is well known to the society folks
Of Milford Miss Lydia w. Watson Of
Dover Delaware. Copies Of this song
have recently been received in Milford,
and it is very catchy. The words and
music are both written by Miss Watson,
and if we are to judge from this, her
first production, a new light has risen
among the composers Of "rag time"
music, who will soon take high place
in popular music. Miss Watson is as

should she continue to follow this bent

Outcry on Pear street, about "Oollar

ringtOn. Several persons who were
out late went to see what the trouble
was, and met Walter Ryon running

bed of six dollars. He went to Esquire
Truitt snd had writ issued for tie
arrest Of Walter Ryon, who he charged
with assault and battery and highway
robbery.
The police arrested Ryon and lodged
him in the town Jail, and on Monday
morning he was given hearing, with /.
this result that he was held in $500 bail
for his appearance at court which was
given for him by a relative.
This trouble is a result of too much
liquor and association with people Of
bad habits, aud possibly may be lesson
to the young man from Harrington.
The penalty for highway robbery was
increased to twenty years at hard labor
BY the last Legislature, and should
Ryon be guilty OF this charge it will
