CONCRETE PIPE BREAKS

AS a result of the rush work on the
City creek aqueduct, 100 feet of the con-
crete pipe gave way yesterday and all
of the day was taken up in cleaning out
the trench and making repairs. Most of
the broken pipe was repaired before the
close of the day. but IL practically killed
two days work. The break was caused
by removing the wooden forms too soon
after the concrete had been run into
them, not allowing the cement time to
harden.
This break. coming on the heels of a
similar one asst week. when a little more
than twenty feet fell through, will delay
the work on the aqueduct about four
days. The work is being done by P. j.
Moran, who has about 800 men at work
trying to establish q record for speed.

Grand theatre by Theodore Lorch and

role of the ensign in a manner that wins
the audience from the start, and his in
depreciation of the role is the best piece
of acting that the actor has yet done In

After witnessing a performance of
"Divorcons,' as presented by the Bun

by Miss Maude Leone and Noel Travers,
it is very readily seen that William A.
Brady made no mistake when he used
this piece as the starring vehicle for his
wife, Miss Grace George Noel Trayers

Des PTunelles, and it affords him an OPP
portunity to display his ability. Miss

care of their respective parts.

1t is with regret that we chronicle
the moving of the Geo. W. Taylor
plant to Seaford. The taking away
of Smyrna's only machine shop is
nothing short of a calamity and one
which Smyrna will regret as time
moves on. Every effort was made,
we understand, to sell the machinery
to some one who would take the
plant and operate it here, but a Sea-
ford machinist wanted it and being
the highest bidder it was sold to
him. This Seaford machinist will
move the plant away this week.
With the number of industries in
town having machinery, and with the
growing demand for automobiles to
say nothing of threshing engines and
aro machinery constantly in need
ii repair, it would seem that Smyrna
could we'll maintain a machine shop.
The removal of the shops from Smyr-
ma is another one of those cases
where a lack of the. proper spirit
and enterprise on the part of the
people of Smyrna exhibited itself.
