LOCAL OPTION ASSURED
FOR NEW CASTLE COUNTY
BILL TO TAKE ANOTHER VOTEIN-
TRODUCED IN LEGISLATURE
Petition Signed In Accordance With
The Constitutional Precision For
Resubmitting the Question

Prospects of the no-license question
being re-submitted to the voters of
rural New Castle county took on tang
ible form yesterday for the petition
which has been circulated among the
members ofthe Senate and House for
some days past by the Rev. John M.
Arters of Wilmington, district sup
erintendent of the Anti-SaloOn League
was signed up. MIR. Arters got to
Dover about 10 O'Clock and half an
hour later Senators Darlington Finn,
Of Marshallton, and Alexander P.
Corbit, Of Odessa, had attched their
signatures to the petition, which asks
that the voters of New Castle county
again be given the privilege of vot-
ing on the question of license or no
license. Under the Federal constitu-
tion it becomes mandatory upon the
General Assembly to grant this priv
ilege, the petition having been pro-
perly signed, but in some quarters
the doubt is expressed to the passage
of such a bill. The "drys" lost no
time, once the petition contained the
necessary number of signers three
members of the Senate and six mem
bers of the House-for in the House
yesterday afternoon Representative
William N. Armstrong of Smyrna,
gave notice of a bill providing for
resubmission and it will likely be in
troduced today together with the pc
tition. 1t is understood that SEN
ators Finn and Corbit, both of whom
are Republicans, before signing the
petition, wanted to be sure that the
"drys" were justified in asking that
the local option matter be brought up
again in the rural district so shortly
following its defeat in that district.
Prior to the signatures of those two
senators being affixed, the petition
contained the names of Senator Hart,
Democrat, and representatives. Arm
strong and CHM, Democrats; Pharo,
Ellison Mcdonald and Morrison, Re.
publicans. The constitution provides
that following the presentation Of
such a petition it becomes mandatory
upon the Legislators to grant the priv
ilege, but no penalty is provided fol
the failure to pass bill providing
for such. The bill to be introduced
provides for an election on the issue
in November, 1910. 1t is reported
today that the "wet" element in tn
general Assembly will seek state
wide re-submission bill to combat tn
bill given notice of, but no definite
move has yet been made.

"BISHOP" KILLS THE "DEVIL"
John Salmons, CoIored Driver En-
ploYed BY the Transportation Com
panY, Victim of Laughabe Joke

The Jersey Devil" which was
recently tracked in the snow in the
yards of Norris Truax and James
H. Roberts on Mt. Vernon street, and
which has given rise to much su-
perstition in this town and vi
cinity, has been killed. l came to
an untimely end in the stable yard
of the Smyrna transportation and
Mfg. Co., Saturday morning by being
shot by Bishop" John Salmons a
colored driver. The latter had be-
come much excited by the statement
that Walter Chandler, assistant
of Manager Jardine's had seen
it the night before around and about
the stable and not wishing to take
any chances, "Bishop" John decided
he would take his gun with him the
next morning, and so he did. 1t was
about 5. as when he reached the stable
yard. The air was damp and foggy
and the night was still. Joining
Homer Johnson another employ of the
Company, he proceeded up the lane
from Commerce street, peering
right and left for the terrible beas t.
Hearing the fiuttering of wings, he
looked up and gave an awful scream.
johnson fled with terror and the
Bishop raised his gun. Presently
the horse-like bird creaking and fiut-
tering, swooped down toward him.
Salmons with eyes bullying and his
heart in his throat, pulled the trigger
with a loud report and the Devil
fell to the ground with one wing
shot off and his breast pierced with
shot After pulling the trigger the
"Bishop" hastened to a corncrib anC
peered out between the Stats. He
called for Johnon but the latter was
nowhere to be found. The suspense
was terrible until someone broke the
spell with loud laughter and the JOKE
was out. 1t appears that Waite
Chandler had rugged up the "Devil'
as near like the pictures printed il
the Philadelphia papers as possible
and had suspended it on wire be
tween the cupola of the stable an
the carriage house, so inclined tina
it would have fall of over 200 feet
Johnson was taken into the trick AM
his coughing twice in succession wa
signal for Chandler to cut tn
rope. The joke worked splendidl
and now "Bishop" John swears h
will have his "revenge. " Variou
reports have been going the round
of the "nevil's" appearance and hi
tracks, one of which was the break
ing up of revival meeting in CO.
ored church in "Whooping. TIL
"Devil" stories in Smyrna have bee
subjects of much talk

U. S. Government Lectures to Public

Mr.. Enos A. Mills, Forest Agent of the
U. S. Government Lectures to Public
1t is a source of great regret that
more people did not hear the talk on

week. Mr.. Mills is a man Of vast
experience in the woods, having camp
ed in every state in the union but two,
Delaware and Rhode Island, and is
an able representative of the govern
ment in the pressing need for the
preservation of the forest. Aside from
the serious matter in hand Mr.. Mills
was an entertaining speaker and rel
ated many amusing incidents of his
forest life, and his reading Of the life
history Of pine tree in Colorado,
which when cut down proved to be
one thousand and forty-seven years
old. showed a wonderful insight and
knowledge OF trees.
