TO ROUND UP LIQUOR SELLERS

DOVER, DEL, May 30tb.-It may be Of
interest for the men of this county and
upper Sussex who have been doing land
Office business in the speakeasy profession
to know that they are all caught.
Between twenty-five and thirty cases
are all ready for presentation to the at
torney-general, and several to the United
States Government authorities, from
these two prohibition counties, but as the
defendants cannot get away without de-
lection and immediate arrest, it has been
deemed the part Of wisdom to allow them
to remain at large, at their own cost of
keep, rather than compel the counties to
pay their board in Jail until next October,
the next sitting of jury courts in Kent
and Sussex. Several of the strongest law
yers in the State have assisted the State
and Government authorities in getting the
evidence, and there are indications that
the Greenbank workhouse will turn out
more clothes next winter than-at any cor
responding period in its history.

NEW YORK FASHIONS

June is the month dedicated to the
''sweet girl graduate 'as well as the bride.
And very charming are this seasons
graduating gowns, simple and girlish in
the extreme but yet, when made by a
good dressmaker, possessing chic that is
all their own. Sheer materials are the
prettiest, and lawn, batiste, India linon,
Swiss, null, ETC., are appropriate. Avery
simple yet most effective gown is of en-
bloidered Swiss, the skirt made with a
very narrow gored front with the fullness
tucked to yoke depth on each side of this.
1t is trimmed with two very wide bands Of
Cluny insertion, one just above the hem
and other about six inches farther up.
The waist has round yoke of Valen-
ciennes allover and has the fuIlness below
this striped with narrower insertion.
The same insertion also runs down the
outside OF the short sleeves.
The Empire Waist Line
The Empire waist line has invad ed the
province of the lingerie frock and
here as elsewhere, one finds shortened
waist the rule, through there are of course
exceptions and princess dresses with
natural waist lines still have a decided
vogue. India linon, batiste and null are
the materials usually chosen for these
frocks and Valenciennes, Cluny and baby
Irish are the aces used to trim them. In
the imported frocks great deal of ap-
plique is seen and so beautifully is it put
on the costume that it is difficult to tell it
from hand embroidery.
New Lingerie and Outing Hats
This summers lingerie hat is in the
Charlotte Corday shape with lace or en-
broidery ruffies falling most becomingly
about the face. These hats are trimmed
with big bows of ribbon or punches of
roses or other summer flowers. a partic-
ularly smart model is made of allover
lace, draped over wire frame, with
double ruffIes of the material edged with
Vaenciennes. 1t has band of black

MUST NOT SHIP INFECTED COWS
Federal Law Brought to the Attention of
State Board of Agriculture

Dover, DEL, June 1st.-The Stat,
Board of Agriculture of Delaware hal
been notified by Secretary James Wilson
of the State Department of Agriculture
| at Washington, of the passage by Congress
of the Federal law against the shipment
and transportation of cattle suffering with
tuberculosis.
This law, it is expected, will get some
of the local steamboat and railroad com.
panies in trouble, unless they insist on all
the cattle and live stock brought aboard
being certificated by official or regularly
licensed veterinarian.
Sixteen thoroughbred cattle on a Kent
farm were offered recently in exchange
for some stock in the West, but the West
ern purchaser insisted in an inspection
and certifcation of the Delaware stock.
1t is said that the mallein test was ap-
piled and six of the sixteen animals re-
sponded. 1t is said that the ten cattle
certiticated as sound in health were sent
West and the remaining six were sold in
this county.
Secretary Wilson of the Presidents
Cabinet, in calling attention to the Della
ware officials, quotes Section of the new
law (23 State L., 32) as follows:
"Sec. 6. That no railroad company
within the United States, or the owners or
masters of any steam or sailing or other
vessel or boat, shall receive for transpor-
tation or export, from one State or terri
tory to another, or from any State into
the District of Columbia, or from any dis
trict into any State, any live stock affected
with any contagious, infectious or com.
municable disease, and especially the dis
ease known as pleuro.pneumonia;no shall
any person, company or corporation de-
liver for such transportation to any rail-
road company, or master or owner of any
boat or vessel, any live stock, knowing
them to be affected with any contagious,
infectious or communicable diseases; nor
shall any person, company or corporation
drive on foot or transport in private con-
yeyance from one State or territory to
another, or from any State into the Dis
trict of Columbia, or from the district into
any State, any live stock, knowing them
to be affected with contagious, infectious
or communicable disease"
Under this section, it is a misdemeanor,
punishable by fine and imprisonment, for
any person, firm or corporation to deliver,
receive, drive on foot or privately convey
any cattle, stock or swine which are af-
fected with tuberculosis, as disclosed by
physical examination, or by the tubercu-
lin test or by any other means.
Secretary Wilson encloses his letter
with notification that in any case where
evidence is furnished the Department,
"vigorous prosecution will be had in the
Federal courts under section 6 of this act
of May 2Sth."

PERHAPS HE DREAMED

Icicles preserved for over sixty years is
discovery claimed to have been made by
Harry E. Elliott, a well-known merchant
of Rehoboth. The shifting sands of the
beach completely covered. little frame
house used for the storage OF oil for the
Cape Henlopen lighthouse over sixty
years ago, and it was soon forgotten.
Elliott and his companions were stroll
ing on the beach the other day when they
found the peak of house iutting from
the sand. Procuring shovels they soon
had it uncovered, found it to be the for
gotten storehouse, and forcing open the
door came into veritable refrigerator,
from the roof of which hung large icicles.
They soon melted in the warm sun. Ell
liott says the discovery is worth cons ider-
able, for it shows new method of keep
ing Ice.

FARMERS DAY AT DELAWARE COLLEGE

The farmers of Delaware and their
wives are invited to attend an Institute
June 10th, at the farm which the State
| has so generously placed at the disposal
of the Delaware College and Experiment
| Station.
Although this farm has been in the
possession of the College bat fourteen
months a number of experiments are
under way, many of which will soon be
completed for this season. These tests
cover over five hundred plots, and furnish
an interesting study for those who are in
terested in progressive agriculture. The
work that is being carried on includes
trials with between fifty and sixty varie.
ties of wheat, about as many of oats. be-
side a large number of demonstrations
with spring rye, emmer, speltz, winter
oats and barley, fertilizer tests on OATS
corn, wheat and grass, and other matters
of general interest.
To add to the attractiveness OF the day,
the managers of the New Castle County
Farmers Institute, under whose auspices
this meeting is to be held, have engaged
Prof. W. ]. Spillman, OF the United States
Department of Agriculture, to make an
address on the subject, Farm Manage
ment." Prof. Spillman is recognized as
one of the most interesting and instructive
speakers in the National Governments
Department OF Agriculture, and all farm
ers are urged to hear him at three O'Clock
in the afternoon.
Trains reach Newark from the South at
1904 and lilo A. M. Returning the
train leaves Newark at 4.55 P. NJ. A two
cent rate for return tickets may be had at
all Stations of the Delaware Division OF
the Pennsylvania Railroad. ;,
The College will provide lunch for all
at noon. Every one is invited, and will
receive hearty welcome.

WARNING TO THE SHIPPERS

To advise shippers amply in advance
that the railroads intend to enforce new
rule requiring all shipments of less than a
carload of freight to be plainly marked
with the name of consignee and destina-
ton, the 416 railroads of the Official
Classification Territory, will within few
days forward to all agents copy of the
following circular.
The Official Classification, under which
freight is received for transportation by
the various companies governed thereby,
requires the proper marking of all less
than-carload shipments before they can
be accepted by such companies for ship
ment.
The purpose of these requirements is to
insure prompt and accurate delivery of
freight, even though separated from the
way-billing directions, and they are of
distinct benefit to the shipper as well as
to the carrier in that the observance Of
same will obviate delay, mixture, misfor-
warding, loss and tie annoyance of result
tant claims. Such rules are so manifestly
desirable from every standpoint that it is
felt there should be no difficulty or objec-
ton on the part of any concerned to
full cooperation Herewith.
The Pennsylvania and Baltimore &
Ohio will each distribute about 10000
copies of the circular. Other railroads
will use proportionate number. In ad-
dition, large placard is being printed
which is to be posted at every railroad
station which is affected by the new rule,
east of the Mississippi and north of the
Ohio. This will seek to give shippers ad-
ditional information regarding the new
rule. Tt is believed by railroads that the
enforcement OF this rule will be of great
value to both shippers and carriers.

velvet ribbon around the softly draped
crown and big bunch of pink roses at
the left side of the front.
The Panama outing hat. simply trim
med with fancy scarf twisted around the
crown with fringed ends hanging down
the back. is the proper thing for general
wear at the seashore and mountains this
summer. There are also hats of white
and light gray felt that are considered
very smart indeed for the same purpose.
The June Bride
Dresses for the June bride are pictur-
esque in the extreme. The materials used
are all soft and supple and even when satin
is chosen for the wedding gown it is of the
new pliable variety, the kind that ''can
stand alone" being hopelessly out of date.
For the bridesmaid there are and enless
variety of styles to.choose from in this day
of many modes. The Directoire styles,
which are decidedly prominent this season
are charming for the purpose. A skirt of
some sheer material like mousseline-
de.soie or chiffon with a Directoire coat
and waist coat of satin is extremely effec-
tive.
White Serge Suits
The white serge tailor suit is very fash
ionable for street wear at the present mo.
ment in New York or for wear at the var
ious summer resorts In the newest
tailored suits of linen considerable use
is being made of cretonne trimmings.
There are waistcoats of cretonne, or
the gaily printed cottons, either in CASH
mere or conventionalized floral patterns,
face the collar and cuffs of-the jacket.
Some of the very newest lingerie waists
are of allover embroidery trimmed with
lace insertion. A very handsome exam
pie is of the sheerest batiste in a small
aIlover eyelet pattern. 1t is elaborately
adorned with insertions of Cluny and
Irish crochet. Lucy CARTER.

The naval authorities are highly elated
over the results of the test made against
the turret armor plate of the Florida. To
naval officers the results seem conclusive
evidence that the turret armor of our
modern fighting ships is proof against the
best guns that other nations might turn
against us with hostile intent.
