JUDGE GRAY WILL NOT ATTEND.
Delaware Delegation Has Engaged a Suite of
Large Club Rooms at Denver.

Federal Judge George Gray of
Delaware will not go to Denver and
make personal fight fo the Demo-
cratic Presidential nominatin. The
Judge himself made a definite an
nouncement to this effect in Whining
ton, Saturday night. He also stated
that his son, Andrew C. Gray Esq.
would not atten the convention.
When it was learned that the Della
ware delegation to the convention
headed by ex-judge Marvel David T.
Josiah Marvel, and other prominent
Democrats of the State, have engaged
a suite of rooms at the Savoy Hotel,
it was reported that the Judge him
self would be present at the head
quarters. The rooms have been en-
gagged by the Judges friends in order
to further his candidacy. but their
efforts will not be helped by the man
of their choice personally. When
Judge Gray was asked Saturday night
if he would be in Denver at the time
of the convention, he answered
firmly 81 will not " When he was
further asked if his son, Andrew C.
Gray, would represent him, he replied
in similar manner. 1t has not yet
been determined who will represent
Delaware at the Denver Convention,
but it was deemed best to secure the
headquarters early in order to help
the Judges chances as much as pos
sible. The State Convention that will
elect the six delegates, will in
struct them to vote for Gray.

ASBURY READY
FOR CONFERENCE
SESSIONS ARE EXPECTED
TO BE INTERESTING
All Of The Finances Are in Good
Shape And Big Sum Paid
For Improvements.

Asbury M. E. Church of Whining
ton is ready for Conference which will
meet there next week. The church,
admirably suited for the session, is
ready and the business of the year, so
far as the church is concerned, is also
ready. Among the conveniences ar
ranged for the benefit of the minis
trial and lay delegates to the con-
ference there will be a telephone at
the church and an operator. There
will also be maintained a bureau of
information for the visitors, as we'll
as a pOstOffice and everything that
will add to their convenience is being
looked after. The presidents of
the different EpwOrth League Societies
of Wilmington met Saturday night
and held a conference in regard to
their annual conference rally, which
will take place on Thursday evening
March 19. At that time all the
leagues in Wilmington will come in
delegations and the body of the church
has been reserved for them.
Following the exercises, the Asbury
Society of Epworth League will
tender reception to the visitors.
This is generally done on the first
night of Conference but on account
of the lay delegates being present this
year, and their not arriving in Will
mington until Thursday, the reception
was postponed to include them.
The ministerial conference opens on
Wednesday, but the lay delegates do
not assemble for business until
Friday. On Monday the examiners
of the Conference and several men
who will start their examinations for
entrance into the Conference, will ar
rive and will begin their work, which
the hope to finish by Wednesday
morning.
1t is only every four years that
the lay delegates meet with the
ministers in conference and at those
times the lay delegates to the General
Conference are elected. There is
being lively contest waged for this
honor. Among the lay delegates
prominently mentioned are Hon. Wal
ter o. Hoffecker, Lieut. Governor l.
Thomas Parker, John P. Holland
and others. The matter of equal lay
representation in the General Confer
ence with the ministerial delegates,
which was agitated by a few persons
sometime ago, appears to have been
forgotten. 1t was never regarded
seriously by the more prominent mem
bers of Conference, being in then
opinion only a repitition of what has
been brought up almost every yeal
for long time.

HIS MARRIAGE ANNULLEO BY COURT.

tie Advertised For "a Widow" and Secured
One in the Person Of Jersey City Woman.
Because Julia A. Tucker Cleaver,
one time a resident of indianapolis
and later of Jersey City, had a hus-
band living at the time of her mar
riage to James A. Cleaver, a Mt.
Pleasant farmer, the Superior Court on
Saturday afternoon, annulled the mar
riage relation between the couple upon
the application of Cleaver, L. Irving
Handy representing him. Cleaver's
narrative of his marital venture was
an unusual one. Being a lonely wild
over, of advanced age, he advertised
for a yung widow to become his life
mate. Julia A. Tucker applied, sta
ting she was a good housekeeper and
likewise a widow. Cleaver accepted
her, and opOn bringing her from Jer-
sey City to Wilmington that he
might look her over, married Julia
two hours later at the residence of
Rev. George A. Wolf. At her Mt.
Pleasant home the woman carried on
a correspondence that finally raised
suspicion in her new husbands mind
as to her identity. He opened one
of her letters, and upon learning
from it that she was really Mrs.
Tucker, of Indianapolis, he ordered
her from his home, declaring that he
would not live with a married woman
He gave her $25 to pay her expenses
back to Jersey City, and has not seen
her since. He said he had heard
from the woman, however. A letter
sent to Mr. Tucker, at indianapolis,
in which Cleaver aked for evidence of
his marriage of Julia, reached the
woman at Jersey City in some manner,
and a reply from her brought to
| Cleaver the announcement that she did
not fear his contemplated legal action
| for separation. "YOu are a brute
and would work woman to death, -
was one thing she told him in the
| letter. Cleaver hurried back to his
Mount Pleasant farm after being
legally separated from the much-mar-
ried woman.

The Milford Board of Health is
agitating the question of having erec-
ted public slaughter house on the
edge of the town where all meat sold
by the local butchers must be killed
and inspected by competent man ap-
pointed by that organization for that
purpose. Not only the Board of
Health, but the meat men of the town
are taking decided steps along this
line. This subject has been precipi-
tated by the finding during the past
few weeks of many diseased cattle
some being fattened for beef while
some had already been slaughtered.
In most of the cases the trouble was
tuberculosis and the meat was kero-
sened so as to render it unfit for use.
The butchers knowing that this has
been made public are afraid that it
will affect the sale of meat an so are
urging the establishment of a public
slaughter house where all cattle
brought must pass rigid examination
by veterinarian selected by the
board of health. One veterinarian
has gone so far as to offer his services
gratis.
