side the list OF civil cases. some Of
which have been argued and others
Just coming up for first hearing.
The case Of John Goodwin. appellant.
vesus the state Of Delaware, respond
ent. will probably be decided, and Cod
win will either be freed Of the charge
Of attempted bribery. or win have TO
undergo his two-year sentence in the
New Castle workhouse for attempting
to buy a vote The States failure TO
particularly identify Goodwin at the
trial. irregularity OF his being held
TO bail by the magistrate and other
grounds were laid as grounds as TO why
the sentence should be dismissed.
Joseph Segeraila's case will also come
up for final decision, and he will have
to suffer death on the gallows unless
the Supreme Court should decide the
case in his favor. or he can succeed I'm
a final plea TO the Board of Pardons.
Segoralla, who IS represented before the
Supreme Court by Hugh NJ. Morris, has
been reprieved twice by the governor to
allow the Supreme Court time TO de-
eide his case. He was convicted by a
New Castle jury for alleged assault
upon a girl. His attorney presented

YE FIRE FANS"
TAKE WARNING
Chicago Woman firing Of
Husbands DaSheS in Auto,
Seeks Divorce

You volunteer hremen OF Wilmington.
especially you who respond to fire
alarms I'm $1,000 touring cars. beware Of
the divorce courts. List 70 the alarming
news from Chicago;
A $1,000 touring car with alarm at
tachments and a craze for going to fires
are said to be principally responsible for
the suit for separate maintenance fled
by Mrs Harvey L. Goodal against her
husband.
Goodan is one OF the original fifteen
Fire Fans. an organization Of wealthy
Chicagoans who have a penchant for
following the clang OF the fire bell.
Mrs Goodan charges that her husband
has fitted up electric connections with
their home so that when an alarm
sounds he may know OF the fire, and
that he thinks more OF his hobby than
he does Of paying attention to her.
Goodall is vice-president Of five publish
ing and news agencies.
''I am tried OF being aroused from my
sleep at an hours OF the night" said
Mrs Goodai to-ay. "Mr. Goodall has
a big fire gong In our home that records
an fires in Chicago. He seems 60 think
IL his duty TO attend all the fires, and
as soon as tho gong sounds he dashes
downstairs and is Off IN his big touring
car TO the scene OF the connagration.
"He alarms the nelghborhood by toot-
ing the big calliope horn on his machine
I have lost hours Of sleep through Mr.
GoodaUs fad and am tired of It. He Is

HOW TO GAIN
HEALTHY FLESH
N. 3. Danforth Advises Use Of ssmose.

N. 3. Danforth Advises Use Of Samose.
While thinness may not be disease,
yet It is in reality a condition that
needs attention. Under the nourish-
ing power of Samose healthy, natural
flesh will soon be attained.
This remarkable fiesh-forming food
strengthens the system generally and
builds up the fieshy tissues so that
good, natural plumpness results.
An ounce of flesh is better than a
pound of theory. n. b. Danforth be-
lieves that the best possible demon
stration of the flesh-forming powers
of Samose is to have it tried by his
customers, and to induce them to use
it, he offers TO pay for the Samose
in case it does not give satisfaction.
No stronger proof than this can be
given Of his faith in it. 1 have seen
hundreds who were weak, thin and
scrawny, become plump. robust and
strong, solely through the use Of Sa-

Catsrpillers Eaten as Food in Congo
The natives OF the Upper Congo are
fond of certain kinds of caterpillers
gathered from the trees which these
insects frequent during the caterpiller
season. They assert that ''mita," as
they call these edible caterpillerS. are
very palatable when cooked IN the
proper way.
Several kinds are eaten. ranging In
size from small insects less than two
inches long, which form clusters or
nests IN the branches of the trees, and
are, therefore. easily gathered, to big
hairy monsters five or six inches long,
and proportionately thick.
