SUES IN COURT
FOR HOTEL RENT

Live ducks figured in another case in
ing trial of the replevin case Of John
c. Carroll VS.. John w. Devalinger.
Devalinger owns the National Hotel
Middletown. and Carroll has been the
tenant. Devalinger claimed $3.50 for
nine months rent in 1907 and when lie
levied on the stock and furniture pro-
ceedings We're stayed by an injunction
from the Court of Chancery. IN March.
1907, Devalinger stocked and furnished
the hotel and later considerable furni-
ture and stock was shipped from POGO
moke City to Middletown. AS Freight
Agent George Devices enumerated the
shipments he mentioned ''one crate OF
live ducks" L. Irving Handy, coun-
sci for Carroll. led the laugh that fol-
lowed and which was participated IN
by nearly every person in court.
Devalinger was represented by
George l.. Townsend. The stock and
furniture placed in the hotel was
valued at So 400. and from March until
December about that amount was paid.
But the rent amounting to $3.50 had
not been paid. it was alleged. and Do
valinger levied on the furniture. When
the case came before the magistrate 5
office proceedings were stayed by an
INDUCTION.
Devalinger testified to-day that he
took the receipts in April and did not
turn any over to Carroll. He said
he did not believe the receipts amount
ed to S1,127.01. He also denied that
he received numerous other payments
not shown by his book.
Devalinger testified further that Car
roll had agreed to allow the forpne.
tenant the receipts for the month OF
April
In opening for the defense Mr.
Handy said the defence was that nc
money was due but on the contrary
Carroll had paid about $1,000 as rent
in advance.
Miss J. Wilson, who has been tbs
housekeeIer at the hotel, said she had
seen Carroll pay Devalinger on fou:
occasions in May and August and
twice in June and July. She said she
had heard conversation between Car
roll and Devalinger in September, 1901
during which Devalinger said: Daddy
YOU are now paid up in full. Anything
you do for me will go as advance
rent"
At this juncture court took a reces:
! until 2.s0 O'Clock.

TALK OF A TROLLEY LINE.

Y HErold story of a trolley line on the lower
L part of the peninsula is revived This time
it is said that Baltimore and New York capitalists
are interested, and propose to build the system.
This is somewhat better than English and Aus
trian capitalists who have figured in various troll
lev schemes for lower Delaware heretofore.
The field does seem inviting There are num-
Der of towns OF some size in Maryland and Della
ware which could be easily linked by trolley. The
towns of lower Maryland are larger than those
of lower Delaware and it would seem that II the
capitalists considered the size of the towns solely,
they would begin the line in Maryland II the
trolley system were to be built in Maryland It
would be only a question Of time before 1t would
be extended into Delaware.
The company which is promoting the trolley
plan has already secured charter for Maryland.
1t has as yet done nothing in Delaware. Recent
trolley schemes started in Delaware and were to
90 over into Maryland. Perhaps change in the
initial point may mean better luck--that we may
see an actual trolley line and not dream about IT.
If trolley men should be convinced that sys-
tenn on the peninsula would pay and yield proht'
there would be no trouble in securing the amount
needed for the construction of the lines.

We fear the ministers are rather too much
disturbed by the fact that the Lightbourne trou-
Bile was described by some of the newspaper cor
lar credentials. We do not see why objection
should be taken to the statement of irregular
credentials. If the credentials were fictitious
or fraudulent they were certainly according to
our notion, irregular, or defective, invalid,
or improper credentials. Several adjectives
could be used and those who called them irreg-
ular credentials as shorter way of describing
the fictitious or fraudulent credentials had no
sinister purpose in mind in using the milder
term AS "misapplying' or "embezzling" is not
so ugly a word as plain stealing so irregular
does not look so bad as fraudulent fictitious.
The ministers evidently wanted the stronger and
specific words used, but such words were used,

ing the incident ~-aA
