BOYS AFTER THE
EARLY CHESTNUTS

To the extreme delight Of thousands
of small boys and as many grown-ups,
the early fall chestnuts are rustling
down through the trees
They are not the luscious, sweet
favored chestnuts that grow good as
they are bitten by october frosts. but
they are chestnuts, nevertheless.
This year has been as II made 20
order" for the chestnut. and the crop
will be heavy
A comparatively damp spring and
sultry summer proved a strong COM
bination for early and late varieties Of
nuts. Throughout the state reports
say there will be chestnuts aplenty. SO
the small boys can begin to fasten the
iron nuts on the ends of broomhandles
and start for the woods.
Chestnut woods and the upper Bran
dywlne woods. the nut paradises for
Wilmingtonians. viii be popular now.
AS yet there has been no frost TO
burst the burrs. but where's the boy
that can't break the burrs?

B. & 0. MAY SUSPEND
SLOW FREIGHT TRAFFIC

CUMBERLAND. Nd, Sept 2s-Rail-
road men say that unless there is rain
in the next few DAYS the Baltimore
and Ohio may be compelled 10 suspend
the movement Of slow freight For the
last week the railroad has been beset
with all sorts of difficulties. A train
has been put on TO haul water from
Hyndman 10 Glencoe and Southanp.
ton, oil tank cars being used.
The greatest difficulty is not so much
because Of the scarcity Of water. but
the quality of the supply. The per-
centage Of chemical ana mineral sub
stances in nearly all the water avail
able for engines is so great that the
flues Of the boilers are eaten out in
one trip, and locomotives cannot be
repaired fast enough 70 move the in
creasing volume OF freight.
Much Of the water used for supply
ing engines on the second division is
from the Cheat river. and because or
the pollution IL has become so bad
that IL is analysed as only 20 per cent
pure. Engines out Of the shop only a
few days are having fiues renewed.

SUE MYSTIC CIRCLE
Tennessee Policy Holders Protest
,ssea Against Raise of Rates.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. Sept. ga bill
was filed in the Chancery Court here
by a guardian against the Supreme
Ruling of the Fraternal Mystic Circle
a Philadelphia fraternal benefit So
ciety, because Of an alleged attempt to
raise arbitrarily the rate Of assessment
against certain old members of the
order. The complainants embrace
about 20 weIl-known residents OF
Nashville.
The bill sets forth that the complain
ants entered into contract Of insur-
ance with the order. agreeing to pay
a fixed amount a month. They deny
that the Supreme Ruling has any right
arbitrarily TO change this assessment,
or that any legislative body has the
right to delegate its powers TO another
body.
Complainants admit that here is a
rule in the bylaws whereby the rate
may be changed for a number of risks
taken in body from some other order.
but insist that the rule does not apply
to them.
An injunction is asked 20 prevent
the proposed increase in the assessment
and exclusion from the benefits of the
order.

RIVER PILOTS MAY
LOSE LICENSES
Navigation Commissioners
Seek to Break DeIawareanS'
Control Over Plotting
FIGHT OVER APPRENTICES

Strong pressure is being brought to-
bear by various maritime interests to
disrupt the Pilots Association and
break what is termed a Delaware mo-
nopoly over pilots holding Pennsyl-
vania licenses for the Delaware bay
and river Next Tuesday the Commits
sioners Of Navigation will meet, at
which time official notice viii be taken
of the action Of the Pilots Association
in not accepting George Clifton Maule
as an apprentice on the pilotboat
Philadelphia. Maule was duly inden-
tured and passed upon by the COM
missioners and his credentials were
made out according to law and sent
to Captain Virden. president of the
Pilots Isociation.
Captain Virden, in defense of his po-
sition in not allowing Maule. his
nephew, to go on board the pilotboat.
said yesterday that neither he nor the
Pilots Association had received any
official orders from the Commissioners
Of Navigation TO place him on the
boat
Captain virden made It plain that his
association did not intend to allow the
Navigation Commissioners to interfere
with rules and regulations concerning the
management of the pilotboat.
1t is more than likely that when the
commissioners meet on Tuesday the four
Pennsylvania pilots who sat in the board
when Maule's application was refused by
the association may be summoned before
the commissioners and their licenses re-
voked. The line has been drawn so closely
now that it is evident TO all maritime men
that the Pilots Association is controlled
solely by Delawareans and not by pilots
from Pennsylvania. Those holding licenses
issued in Delaware outnumber the Penn
sylvania pilots. so the latter have little
or nothing 10 say in the management OF
the association.
Captain Virden, who holds a pilots IL
cense from Delaware. is not only president
of the Pilots Association. but is also
chairman of the Pilot Commissioners OF
Delaware. Should a complaint be regis
tered against a Delaware pilot by a ship
owner or agent the case not only goes
before Captain Virden. but his decision in
the matter is final 1t is for this reason
that Pennsylvania steamship agents are
indignant at the knowledge that the Nav
igation Commissioners have no jurisdic-
tion over Delaware pilots, Notwithstanding
that such pilots are allowed to bring YES
sells up TO Philadelphia and take others
out Agents contend that Pennsylvania
pilots should break away from the Dela-
ware contingent and operate a boat Of
their own, as by so doing all vessels ar
irving and departing from Philadelphia
will then be in charge Of pilots licensed
by the State Of Pennsylvania.
Delaware pilots predict that should such
a move be made it will cripple the pilot
age system. which they assert is being
operated in an efficient manner.
