Of Harrington, Pa, vs. the Fidelity Trust
Co., the verdict was given for the plaintiff

to March lst, 1910 The action was to re-
cover money deposited by him with the

In the second trial of Comfort Postles,
charged with selling liquor illegally the
woman was acquitted
In the Court Thursday, when the case
OF Benson Deveraux, an oysterman, who
had been indicted at the October term for
the unlawful catching Of oysters from the
national rocks Of the Delaware Bay, by
the method known as 'naptha winders,
was settled by plea Of guilty, and fine
of $40.
All Of Thursday and up to noon Friday
was consumed in the trial of Dr. William
T. Ryan, a veterinarian Of Smyrna, on
several indictments alleging the selling of
Intoxicating liquor in prohibition territory
mot for medicinal nor sacramedtal pur-
poses" An unusually large number Of
witnesses were in attendance. DR.. Ryan
was represented by K. r. Kenney and
Walter H. Hayes. Judge Boyce charged
the jury at noon and the jury retired to
their room for deliberation.
At the afternoon session of the Court
another case of the State vs.. William T. I

to give his testimony to the effect that on

ceeded no further in his testimony, when .
Mr.. Kenney, counsel for Ryan, addressed /
the Court by stating that he desired to .
make an application for a change Of plea /
from that OF "not guilty" 10 that of .
''gHilty." The application came as a gem
uine surprise. but was assented to by
Ryan who was sitting beside his counsel.
The Court being satisfied as to the plea,
ordered the foreman of the jury just
drawn to step out and then asked the en-
tire panel to step out. The jury which
wac out was sent for and the same pro-
cedure was gone through, that of asking
the foreman to step ont Of the box and
then the entire panel, which they did.
Deputy Attorney-General Wolcott then
asked that sentence be imposed at once
on Ryan, which the Court did after ad-
monishing Ryan of his acts in the fHture.
The sentence Of the Court as passed by
Judge Boyce was that Ryan be imprisoned
in the New Castle County Workhouse for
the term Of five months beginning this
day and ending the third day Of August $
next. That he pay a fine Of 500 and I
,osts Of the prosecution.

IL a day s experience in Phila-
delphia this week, we found it hard
to realize that a strike was in pro
gress, which was reported as para
lying the business interests and
endangering the people who made
use Of the streets or the trolley cars.
We found the cars running as usual,
well filled with passengers. We
found the stores crowded with shop
pers, and no evidence of the har-
rowing tales, which have been
published by the daily press ofthat
city. We have reached the con
clusion that much Of the trouble as
reported in the papers are isolated
ones, magnifed to catch the ap-
proval of popular clamor.

expected her girl home long before
midnight a weeks end party in a
shack with chaperone would have
found scant courtesy and had ii been
suggested and met a very decisive and
final negative. AS for a chaperone at
a theater party in that day-well thea
ter parties usually consisted of two
who sat on common chairs in the opera
house and followed the varying for
tunes Of Capitola in the Hidden
Hand" in an absorbed and sympa-
thetic fashion and got home before the
lights were out.
Mothers Of that day included in
their duties that Of chaperone, only
they didn't so dignity it. When mother
set her foot down or father decided
the point was finally settled. One
went or stayed at home. And that was
