FELTON,.

Several young men Of Burnite's Mill,
near here, are agitated over the shooting
of fox, one of lair which they had
been caring for since last winter, by a
well-known farmer near FELTON,. Three
foxes, while babies, were caught by the
men last winter and we're placed in a
large, improvised lair, from which they
could not escape. One was given the
name Of Ted, the other Annie, and the
third, King of the Woods The young
men developed a great fondness for the
foxes and fed and cared for them, and,
one evening this week, King was let out
for a run ahead OF the dogs, the latter be-
ing kept in bounds by whippeT-in. Sud-
denly the young men heard a shot ring
out, and a fox's cry, and they knew that
their pet was shot. The farmer had not
relished the chase being made in the
busy crop season over his lands and
through his poultry rnns, and he dis
patched the fox instantly. Now there
is feeling which older heads are endeav-
Oring to overcome.

THE State Convention of the Re-
publican Party to be held at Dover
will nominate a candidate for the
Sixty-second Congress, and the
CHRONICLE is unequivocally in
favor of the denomination of the
Hon. William H. Heald, and will
support his candidacy when nOmi-
mated. We feel it to be the duty Of
every voter of Milford and Cedar
Creek Hundreds, regardless Of poll
tical opinions, to support him, as
he has done more to assist this com
munity in the way of improvement
to our waterway than any man who
has preceded him; having secured
the munihcent sum of fifty thOus-
and dollars. The nomination of
State Treasurer will be conceded to
Sussex county, and the present in
cumbent, D. o. Moore, has made
an excellent record in the Office,
we advocate his nomination. The
feeling Is extent and growing among
well-informed Republicans that the
State Authorship should come
from Kent county, and we are in
formed that a name will be present
ed to the Kent county caucus that
commend its endorsement Of a man
competent and qualified,
and whose name when endorsed
will be presented to the State Con-
ven ton for nomination by the
party.

LAUREL.

Marion, the ls-year-old daughter Of
Mr.. and Mrs. I. II. Fuller was overcome
while playing with girl friends near her
home on Market street on Wednesday
evening, and the prompt action of DR.. A.
j. Fleetwood, whose office she was rushed
TO- alone saved her life. The girls had
been running, and when Marion fell her
friends thought she was acting and took
her by thearm and began dragging her,
when one OF the girls noticed the limp
condition OF their companion, she became
alarmed and cried for help. When taken
/ to the Doctors Office the heart action had
entirely ceased. The most drastic treat
ment resulted in the restoration OF res

girl regained consciousness but is in a PIE
carious condition this morning, Thurs

IT is well to remember that It is
at the primary meetings the voter
must make himself felt, as there the
nominations, be they good or bad,
are made for the party to standby.
The man who fails to attend the
primaries and objects to the nomin-
atiOns of his party, is poor kind OF
a citizen to have in any community.
1t is a study, just as much as is vOt-
ing at the regular elections, for
every citizen to express his desires
and preferences at the primary cleo
ton held on the Saturday previous
TO the conventions, where the dele
gates only carry out the will Of
those who sent them. If we are to
have good, clean, and honest men
as public servants, you must go to
the primaries and vote for men as
delegates who will go to the con-
ventions and place on the tickets
men OF probity and ability. Just
remember this, and quit kicking
because the other fellow did what
you failed to dO-attend the pri-
maries.

A REPLY TO LADY READER.
To Editor Of the Chronicle

To Editor Of the Chronicle:
In reply to a criticism of the Board Of
Health by a person signed "a Lady
Reader" in the issue of the Milford
Chronicle of last week, the Board wishes
to say that all complaints made in writing
to the secretary have been investigated,
and where found warranted, were ordered
corrected. If the aforementioned Lady
| Reader knows of the existence of such
nuisances as she speaks of, she would be
acting the part Of a good citizen if she
were to complain to the Board in the pre-
scrbed form so that the nuisances might
be Investigated and relieved She no
doubt does not realize that the members
OF the Board are business men who are
giving their time without compensation,
except abuse, for their services and that
they can not always spare the necessary
moments to be continually prying into
the bsckyaFds, etc, OF the different prop
critics. A paid Board might be expected
to do so, but the present members are not
meR who can afford to take the time from
their business with the consequent inan-
cial loss this would entail.
In regards to the criticisms of the Lady
Reader the Board would venture the as
sertion, that never in the history Of Mil
ford has there been equalled the ceanli-
ness Of properties, secured through the
efforts Of the Board, as has been shown
this year. In further proof of the advance
Milford bas made in sanitation the statis-
tics show lessening in the annual death
rate per 1000 inhabitants from the year
the present Board went into office in 1908
of twenty-seven to nine in 1909, and if
present figures continue during the re-
mainder of this year will drop to at least
seven.
Only the pride for municipal 5etterment
has held the members Of the Board in
their positions, but now that sufficient
has been stirred up within {
the Lady Reader, the Board would sug-
yest that she apply for a position on its
staff, and bring along others who show !
equal interest, the present members will /
be glad to resign their positions to be filed '
by others as competent as Lady Reader.
