biggest smithy
George c. Morton is Delaware's most
important blacksmith. and his smithy,
Nos. 4l3-17 Orange street, is known to
well-informed horsemen all over the
State. The establishment, in fact, has
Outgrown its "smithy period" and is
really one of Wilmingtons most i'm
portant industries. From the mere
shoeing of horses, which is really an
art in itself. the big establishment
has brancned into the various branches
Of wagon building and rubber tiring.
As an instance Of the magnitude of
the. business may be mentioned the
fact'that the apparatus for placing rub
bor tires on wagon wheels alone to-
gether with stock of rubber on hand
and paraphernalia in Mr.. Mortons shop
represents $1,000. Tires from three
quartes of an inch to > inches are
placed on wheels by this apparatus. and
moreover, the shop is the only one in
the city with a machine for equiping
wheels with side wires.
Mr.. Morton has developed an espe-
cially large horse shoeing department.
This is in charge of J. w Osborne,
an expert, scientific horse shoer who
has brought his trade to the dignity of
science. The first thing attracting
one in an inspection of this depart
ment is a large case containing special
shoes for horses. There are 20 speci-
mems Of these iron and steel hand made

Confessed to Murder
 While Intoxicated

To ;h @ confession he made while drunk, Robert Stewsrt owes he con- yictiOn in Florence las, week of mur- der T the second degree for the kill ing of A. J. Dsggs near Superior on January I, 1908.
 While Stewart was out on bail he got drunk enough to make him boast fully tslkstive, and while under the influence of the liquor he told a Florence man that he had wsyla'd and killed Dsggs ;n dispute over mining property.
 With the exception of the confes- sion he made while drunk, Stewart, who is s remarkably reticent man, has said little about the affair during the fourteen months that have passed since Dasgs was mur- dered.
 The Florence Tribune says that Stewart had said SO little that 1t was cause for comment, and that he should bring himself within the shadow of the gsllows by making an open confession and boosting of his bloody deed is all that he can blame for the verdict in Florence last week.
