WANTED TO MARRY ON
JAIL COMMITMENT

CONCORD. Del. May 4-Handing a
commitment to tho county Jail to the
minister, Harry Rollins tried 20 get
married on such credentials the other
day
Rollins had gone TO a justice OF the
peace near here a few days ago and
secured what he thought was a mar
riage license. The justice had forgotten
his eye glasses. but supposed that he
had gotten the correct blank when he
pulled out q commitment to the county
jail. The mistake was not discovered
until the blushing bride and the pros
pective husband stood up before a min
lister ready TO have the words said that
would make them man and wife, when
the clergyman took another look at
the license and found what It really
contained
Il was an irate bridegroom that ap-
peared before the justice a few hours
later. and it was only by humble apol-
ogies and the presentation of the prop
er license that the indignant young
man was made to see the matter in its
laughabie aspect
The marriage was later performed
without the use OF the jail commit
ment.

Levy Court Hears Delegations
on Subject and POStpOneS
Action

A delegation in favor Of building an
improved road from stanton to Mar
shallton appeared before the Levy
Court this morning. Those in the
party were DR.. l.. Heisler Ball. DIT.
Francis Springer. c. p. Diclley, Rich
ard Pilling. h. A. Groves and William
r. Cranston. They held a conference
with Trustees Of the Workhouse Cor
bit. Ball, Carpenter and Hnles previous
to the meeting of the court. The
trustees of the workhouse have on diff
ference occasions made offers which
would make the building of roads near
the worShouse quarries not more than
60 per cent. Of the cost Of other
roads.
An offer TO place the short-term
prisoners on the roads at 70 cents a
day and furnish stone at 81 load had
been made by them and in order TO find
out something definite about the mat
ter the trustees to-day attended the
meeting Of the court
Richard Pilling acted as spokesman
for the Mil Greek hundred delegation.
and said their piece of road they want
rebuilt is about three quarters Of a
mile long Tho teams from the
Kiamensi woolen mills and the mill
at stanton arc using this stretch of
road all the time.
Mr.. Dickey. Mr.. Cranston. Or. Spring
or, Dr. Ball and MIR. Groves also I'D
dressed the Levy Court.

1 trustees Of the workhouse, felt sure
that the help from the workhouse
| could be taken to the roads within -four

owns a roller and u watering cart is

II. Allen Hilles, another Of the trus'
tees. said the men who are worked OF
/ the roads cannot be used in the shops
1--WE want New Castle county to h'
known everywhere as the county OF
good roads, he added.
President Dayett of the court asked
If tho trustees could not bid for thl
work after the roads are surveyed. Mr
Hilles replied that they could.
c. Candy Hopkins said the forme
roads built by the trustees were pai'
for by the respective hundreds.
Mr.. Carpenter said that it would b
cheaper TO build the roads in TINS wa
rather than by contract.
Mr. Corbit said that the Levy Cour
, can do the work as easily as take car
of the bridges and causeways.
Mr.. Dennison, of the court, said IN
state highway commissioner Woul
have nothing to do with this road. tn
hundred could do it with the super
vision of the county engineer.
j. Frank Bail, another workhous
j trustee. said that as soon as the work
house becomes self-supporting the cos
. of feeding prisoners VIII not be fort

County Comptroller Chandler saw n
G reason why the road could not 1

No action was taken by the Lev
