DELAWARE CITY.

Editor of THE EVENING JOURNAL.
In recent issue of your paper we no
ticed that Delaware City is to. be lighted
with electricity.
When that is done. for comfort and con-
venience. it will be second to no town on
the peninsula. Its streets are beautifully
laid out with width and regularity sell
dom found in a town of its size. and when
one looks in either direction and notes the
exquisite archway formed by the meeting
of the handsome shade trees overhead. the
effect IS simply enchanting. Then we have
waterways that make II easy OF access,
also a steam railroad and trolley system.
Now. in the face Of all these beauties and
facilities, why is it that as a business
centre it is a failureg
Surely land is cheap and houses can bs
had. with rents within the reach Of tn,
working mans purse
When recently discussing the problem
It was said that living in Delaware City
was too easy, man had only 10 take
hook and line and go to the canal for fish
and terrapin. or net to the river fol
crabs, etc. If one had TO hustle anc
scratch" for living more energy would
be developed and the town would b,
bound TO succeed.
With rents in our neighboring cities and
towns so high that several families must
huddle together in one house, why does
not some enterprising person put ur
houses for rent here where people could
have real homes, even if they had to ride
to the city to work (as is done in the
suburbs Of all la-ge cities0 The fare, with
rent, would not be any more than the rent

WENT CRAZY ON A LIeHTsHlP.
Loneliness and Heat Make Man
Maniac-Capture with Pie After
Desperate Fight Aloft.

Detroit, Mich.-Dennis NJ. Scadden
OF Cleveland, 81 years old, second en-
gineer on the United States lightship
station on the southeast shoal in
Lake Erie, forty.fye miles north Of
Cleveland, went violently insane on
Sunday last, and before he was land
ed in st. Mary's Hospital here he ter
rorized the crew OF the lightship and
also OF the steamer Wainwright.
= piece of pie was the bait with
which the man was overpowered after
a desperate fight in the steamers rig
ging.
Scadden was new man on the
lightship and the loneliness wore on
him, and this. coupled with the ter
rife heat OF the ship out on the lake,
drove him insane.
After hard struggle the other
members OF the crew succeeded in
putting him in irons. A signal of dis
trees was answered by the Vain.
wright a boat was sent for the trans.
fer Of Scadden. His leg irons we're
loosened. and the moment he reach
ed the Wainwright he broke away,
with his hands still manacled and
rushed to the masthead. All efforts
to recapture him we're fruitless for
more than eight hours. He fought
back the sailors with his cuffed hands.
Toward the end he began to weaken.
as he had eaten nothing from Sunday
at noon. and he cried for food. The
cook finally climbed the rigging with
a piece OF pie in his hand. Scadden
grabbed this and began 10 devour il.
The cook. while his attention was dis.
tracted, threw a rope around his
body, attached ii TO tackle and
the maniac was lowered 70 the deck.

come the conviction of an end Of the
world, inevitable, as the death OF the

Is longevity to be regarded as neces-

that biologists are beginning TO int!-

the term OF bodily life, and that it is
equally conceivable that the human
race may so modify and control con-
ditons as greatly TO prolong its ca

Indicated, are the checking of waste

gradual exhaustion OF natures sup
