DELAWARE AND THE FOURTH.

THE Fourth of July, as it always will, remains
- the greatest of our national holidays. And
OF peculiar interest to Delawareans is this, the
anniversary of the birth of the nation, for it is
made memorable to us by the ride of Caesar Rod
ney, whose vote gave Delaware's consent to the
Declaration of independence. One Of the dele
gates to the Continental Congress from this
State was in doubt about the wisdom Of declaring
independence at the time, another delegate ia
vored the declaration, and it was then that Rod
ney, who was at his home near Dover, was sum-
moned. His voice was needed to make the ma
jority of Delaware members of the Congress fa-
vorable to the declaration and hence he made
the memorable ride that has gone down in his
tory. Rodney journeyed from Dover to Phila-
delphia as rapidly as possible and was in time to
take part in the final proceedings
All during the war for independence Delaware
did more than her share for freedom. She was
noted in the councils Of the Congress and on the
fields of battle. Some of the best troops Of the
regular army were drawn from Delaware All
during the crucial test OF the war; in the southern
campaign, it was the Delaware and MARYLAND
line that Gates and Greene relied upon to
bring victory out of defeat At the disas-
trous battle of Camden South Carolina, the
Delaware men, under KirlSwood, were almost an
initiated, as the heaviest fire of the British was
upon them
In the war of independence this State made a
record for patriotism unsurpassed and the Della
ware fathers of the Revolution left a precious
heritage to the sons of Delaware to-day.

Thief ATTACKS
YOUNG WOMAN
Miss Virginia Brown Beaten
Until She is Un.
conscious

HAVRE DE GRACE. Nd, July a.
Miss Virginia Brown, Is years old,
daughter of Thomas Brown, a farmer
living near this city, was attacked by
strange man about o'clock yester-
day afternoon in her home. Miss
Brown was alone in the house, her
father being in the field a short dis
tance away. When he returned to the
house. about half hour later he
found his daughter lying unconscious
in the yard
Miss Brown did not regain conscious
ness until about two hours later. She
said that about o'clock a strange
white man came to the house and ask
ed her for something to eat. She start
ed to comply with his request when he
pointed a pistol at her and warned her
not to make an outcry. He then bound
her hands and feet and proceeded
to ransack the house. Taking a bunch
of keys from his pocket he unlocked
desk and took what cash was there
amounting TO about SIS.
Miss Brown endeavored to free her
self, but could not. She screamed.
Whereupon the thief struck her on the
head, rendering her unconscious.
Searching parties were formed 10
capture the miscreant. Miss Brown de-
scribed the man as being about 30
years old with blue eyes and short
black hair. A stranger answering this
description was arrested last night and
locked up. Miss Brown failed to iden-
tify him and he was released this

past has been long and deadly one, and while
accidents always will happen in the general OBJ
serance Of the day, care should be exercised to
make the mishaps as few as possible
The records of the last few years show that the
agitation for less deadly Fourth is having its
effect The records of The Journal Of the Ameri-
can Medical Association show that in 1903 the
deaths attributable to a reckless celebration num-
bered 400 as many killed as were slain in some
of the greatest battles of the American Revolu-
ton. OF the number dead in that year. AIS were
due TO tetanus "a dreadful malady the possibility
Of which alone should halt the fireworks devotec.
The number Of dead has been considerably re-
duced during the last few years Last year the
number Of deaths following the celebration Of the
natal day were I5S and OF these 80 we're caused
by tetanus.
The authorities Of different States ealze that
it is impossible entirely TO wipe out the record
of accidents and Boards Of Health in many cities
have issued bulletins Of how such accidents
should be treated Tetanus is due chiefly to the
bacillus abounding in street dirt, which may be
carried under tie skin in an explosion of fire.
works No wound received in celebrating should
be treated lightly, but should recev, immediate
attention at the hands Of a skillfu surgeon.
Home treatment of such accidents is inadvisable.
Carboc acid has been used by many as a dress
ing for such wounds, but physicians have shown
that gangrene poisoning is apt to follow such
treatment. With ordinary care the dangers from
explosive mshaps can be reduced to a minimum.

Mrs. James +. Adams. sO3 Madison

think as much Of Doan's Kidney Pills as
we ever did and are never without them
IN the house. My husband made a stale
ment in 1897 recommending Doan's Kid
ney Pills. His back had troubled him for
twenty years brought on by a strain
across his kidneys years ago which grew
worse as he grew older. He was lame dur
ing the day and suffered intense pains
during the night. more particularly after
a hard days work. After any over exer-
ton, STOPPING or lifting. he seemed un-
able TO obtain rest or ease in any position
during the night. He felt languid tired
and worn out IN the mornings. Seeing
Doan's Kidney pills highly recommended.
he procured box at Danforth's phar-
macy, and used them. The pain was re-
lioved, his back was made stronger. he
rested and slept well at nights. and got
up in the mornings feeling refreshed,
ready to do a days work. He gave
second statement in 1904 in which he
stated that he was still strong advocate
for Doan's Kidney Pills and that their
good effects were as apparent as when
