These THO Half Yearly Sales
Originated By This Store
Are Full of Golden Opportunities
$4,000 Worth Of Fancy
China to Sell at $500

Charles Field Haviland specializes on
fancy china and it is the best Of good
fortune to offer practically everything
one expects to find among fancy china at
about one-third Of the usual prices.
Plates, cups and saucers, chop dishes
salad bowls, chocolate pots-all Of dainty
shape and charmingly delicate decoration.
One of the very first pieces we took out
was a chocolate pot selling regularly IN
stock at $3.50, which we have marked
at $3.50
Other chocolate pots are ST, instead OF 81;
and 75c, instead of Sl.75.
Salad bowls are SOC, instead OF Sl.5O.
Cracker jars are 81, instead Of S5, and 81, in
stead of $3.50.
Covered muffin dishes are Sl.25, instead OF
SITS, and 7sc, instead of Sl.!5
Pudding dishes are 81, instead of S2.25
Condensed milk holders, 75c, instead OF
Sl75
Plates, 25c and SOC, instead of 75c and Sl5o.
Tea cups and saucers, l5c, zoe. 4Oc, 7Sc.
instead of SOC, soc, 81 and Sl.50.
But at this writing it is impossible to give
full details, for the china has just been opened.
We do know, however. that all of it will cost
two-thirds less than if it were in regular
stock
Every piece will probably sell early in the
morning, so please do not come late and be
disappointed

RAILROAD STOCK
AND THE STATE
Joint Resolution for the Ap-
pOintment Of a Commits
sion Of Inquiry

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER, March Representative
White offered a joint resolution in the
House this morning calling for the
appointment of joint commission Of
three representatives and two SEN
ators to investigate the subject of
whether or not any railroad corpor-
ations doing business in Delaware
owe money in the State.
The resolution was referred to
committee.
The object Of this resolution is to
ascertain what became of the Della
ware Railroad stock that the State is
supposed to have owned. When the
Delaware Railroad was constructed,
the State advanced money to help in
the construction of the line and it's
completion, and it is understood that
the State received stock in the COM
pany. It is said that no trace has
been had of that stock or of the certi-
ficates since 1887 or 1888. At that tins
some State papers disappeared from
the Office of State Treasurer Herbert.
Some persons have an impression that
the Delaware Railroad Company is in
debted to the extent of $4,000 or there
abouts to the State.
There is no record for many years Of
Delaware Railroad stock or indebted
ness being carried as an asset of tho
State in the records of the State
treasurer.

With the proposed addition to the old

penditure of about $4,000, besides
other bridge at Laurel only a short
the Sussex Levy Court, at its meeting
yesterday, deeming it unnecessary to
have to pay for the construction of an
othed bridge at Laurel only a short
distance from the one that now spans
the river. decided to adopt the follow
ing resolution with view of knock
ing out the bill that is now before the
Legislature. which, If passed, will pro-
vide for the erection of the bridge at
the expense of the Levy Court:
Whereas in the judgment Of the Levy
Court Of Sussex county the construc-
tion of an additional bridge over the
Laurel River within the town of
Laurel and within two hundred yards
of the present bridge over said river
is not such a necessity for the gem
eral public as makes the construction
thereof imperative;
And, Whereas other public improve
ments which will absorb funds avail
able for general improvements are
more needed by the public in gen
eral
Therefore. be II Resolved, BY the
Levy Court Of Sussex county that the
General Assembly be requested not 10
pass the bill now before the present
session, which has for its purpose the
direction of the said Levy Court to
build such bridge by the county;
'Be it further Resolved. That copy
of the above resolution be forwarded
to the President of the Senate and a
copy to the Speaker of the House, and
they be requested to deliver said reso-
luton to the proper committee"
