HEAR RAIL MERGER
CASE IN OCTOBER
GOVERNMENT IS AFTER SOUTH
ERIN AND UNION PACIFICS.
ST. PAUL JUDGES WILL SELECT
DEFINITE DATE AND PLACE.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April %
The hearing of the government case for
the dissolution of the Southern Pacific
and Union Pacific railroads will take
place probably about October /. The Sc
lection of a definite date and place Will
be made by the judges of the eighth cir
cult at st. Paul, Mimi, in May.
@. A. Severance has represented the
government in the preparation OF the
case, which is a proceeding to dissolve
the merger of the Southern Pacific and
the Union Pacific railroads on the ground
that it was a violation Of the Sherman
antitrust act. Suit for dissolution was
filed in the circuit court at Salt Lake
City.
The positive announcement of the de-
termination to fix a time for the hearing
of the case apparently dispOses OF re-
ports which have been revealed frequent
ly that the government had decided to
abandon the proceeding against the two
railroads.
Unofficially, the suggestion has been
made that the circuit court possibly had
in view a decision of the supreme court
on the tobacco trust and Standard OH
cases in postponing the argument on the
merger case until fall, as it is generally
realized that some time will elapse after
the arguments are heard in the merger
case before decision is reached.
As st. Paul is most convenient to
many of the parties interested in the
suit, the expectation is that the argu-
ments will be heard there.

DELAWARE TRAPPERs' PROFITS.
One Fur Dealer Bought More Than 2c,00O
Muskrat Skins.

The fur season, which draws to a
close in this vicinity this week, has been
in many respects the most remarkable
that our trappers have experienced in
many years. The industry has grown
at a remarkable pace and has put IN cir
cuation over $4,000.
Bombay Hook island has been a lively
place the last winter and trapping
marshes have been much i'll demand.
Some idea of what the industry has
meant to Bombay Hook can be under
stood by the figures of ]. Wesley Jones,
Smyrna's prominent fur dealer. Dur
ing the last season he has bought over
$4,000 muskrat hides and has paid the
trappers over $4,000.
The largest trapper on Bombay Hook
island is jim Hoffecker, who has deliv
cred 5000 hides from his marsh. James
Liner is a close second with 5000 hides,
and Presley GoldsborOugh has a record
of considerably over n thousand hides.
The market on hides has been strong
and steady, around 80 cents for several
months. ....
Down in Thoroughfare Neck, in the
vicinity of Taylors Bridge, the trapping
industry has been equally as. lively, and
a number of trappers will close the sea-
son with a record of between 2OOO and
5000 hides. John NJ. Armstrong of
Odessa is the principal fur buyer in low
er New Castle county and he will close
the season with an even better record
than Mr.: Jones. Mr.. Armstrong, it is
said, has bought over $4,000 hides and
paid the trappers over $1,000.
The industry has meant much to farm
ers having marshland and an effort will
be made next year to pay more, atten-
ton to this industry than ever. With
the prevailing high market prices for
muslrat furs trapping has been a more
profitable industry than farminS.-Smyr-

WAUKESHA. Wis. April 25.-[Spe-
cial. Edna Wilde, aged Is years, who
was killed by an electric car at the
Sunny Slope crossing during the storm
Saturday morning, was the daughter OF
Charles Wilde, a well known Wauke-
sha county farmer, residing in the town
OF New Berlin, two miles south OF
where the fatal accident occurred. The
girl was to come to this city Saturday
to take the rural school diploma exami-
nation conducted by County Superln-
tendent G.. B. Rhoads, but because of the
severe storm her mother urged her not to
go.
Anxious to pass her examination, she
pleaded to be allowed to go and her
father finally hitched up his team and
drove her to Sunny Slope to take the
$40 westbound car for this city. On
the way they picked up Mary Salmond,
another girl who was also coming to
Waukeshe to take the examination. :.
The two girls waited in the small
station at Sunny Slope for the car.
When they heard it whistle they stepped
out and an eastbound work car which
they had not heard, rushed by. The
Salmond girl, who was in the rear, es--
capped, but Edna was struck and hurled
30 feet through the air, being instantly
killed.
The body was taken to Milwaukee and
removed to the home Sunday. Coroner
Charles Hill of this city impaneled a
jury and will hold an inquest here Fri
day. The child's skull was fractured,
her neck dslocated and her left arm
and left leg broken. Mrs. Roy L. Ben
jamin of this city, who formerly taught
school in the New Berlin district where
Edna attended. speaks of her as an ex-
ceptionally bright scholar and attractive
child. She is survived by her parents
and one sister. The funeral will be held
Wednesday.

upon the floor, when the unIoyey shell
opened, disclosing silver lining. Pick
ing up the despised token the princess
discovered Il secret spring which on be-
ing touched revealed golden yoIk. This
held yet another spring, which revealed
a crown of rubieS. In the ruby crown
was yet another spring, disclosing dm-
mOnd betrOthal ring from the romantic
prince.
But London scores when it comes to
the costliness,. magniticence and lngenu-
ity of the Easter egg, says the Lady )

rousseau of a South African million
aires bride The she'll was Of chocolate
and besides. the trousseau it contained
masses of sweets.
Some twenty or thirty years ago a
great English lady presented the rope
with an Easter egg which had cost her
over f2OO0. Its shell was of ivory IIhei
