ST. SWITHIN DAY
PROMISES DRY SPELL

Judging from the present outlook,
together with the predictions Of the
Weather Bureau, today, St. Swithin' s
Day will be clear. According to the
legend concerning the day if it should
rain today the rain would continue 40
days, which would be welcomed by the
farmers.
st. Swithin was patron Of Winches-
ter, England, and died away back in
the summer of S62, and at his request
was buried in an open church yard,
where he remained for a century.
Then the monks and people Of Win
chester decided 10 move his remains
to the choir Of a splendid church.
July Is was the day the removal cere-
mony began. They started digging
and a terrific rainstorm drove all
hands to cover. Again they attempt
ed to sally forth and again the rain
increased with increased fury. After
that the people decided the saint did
not want his bones removed and the
suspicion became a conviction when
the rain kept up steadily for forty
DAYS.

SEES SHIPLEY AS
BUSINESS STREET
J. Jackson Pierce Speaks Of
the Possibilities In the
Way Of Developments

]. Jackson Pierce. the we'll known
real estate dealer. believes there is
great possibility for business devel-
opment along Shipley street:
Some of the peculiar circumstances
attending real estate in the city Of
Wilmington, are the conditioner real
estate on Shipley street between
Fourth and Tenth Streets" said Mr.
Pierce today. 1T is a well known
fact that in the past few years the
price of real estate on Shipley street
has steadily advanced until now a
person can average or do average the
property that they hold at about $500
a foot. The same condition applies
to properties along Ninth street, be-
! tween Market and Tatnall streets,
also Tenth, Eighth, Seventh, Sixth and
Orange streets. Now Tatnall street
has taken a move for improvements in
the way of business properties The
owners of property in the district
designated from time to time have
been approached quite frequently with
various offers for their holdings which
speaks very we'll for the growth Of
our city, but there is one fact that
the owners of property along Market
street running through to Shipley
street do not seem to appreciate-that
Shipley street fronts are so valuable
and do not improve them accordingly.
1T can be readily noticed that the
improvements on the east side OF
Shipley street are very few and can
be easily counted Such a condition
should not exist and the owners Of
property running through from Mar
ket to Shipley street are oft times
confronted with the problem Of how
TO make their buildings pay. but it
is impossible to make them pay when
, they do not utilize the opportunities
they have. Willard Salisbury has
taken the most progressive view and
is, IN fact, aware that the Shipley
street fronts are valuable assets to
the business property on Market
street and, in fact, it is hard to realize
how any one in business and owning
J property does not see that il is
against their interest TO make moth
ing more than a rear entrance end in
some cases very poor improvements
in the way Of shops, back yards and
= so on which suggests more the ap-
pearance of an alley than a street
mo one would think for a miaute
Of buying property on Ninth street
Eighth street, Orange street or any
= of the streets mentioned and paying
$500 or $500 foot for ground without
improving it according to its value
With the congestion which exists
on Market street, Shipley street is
used more frequently by business peo-
pie to avoid the crowds and it is only
5 reasonable that this class of people
: are the people to whom the merchants
are looking to for their business and
if Market street owners took the ad-
vantage which they should they would
soon find that their business would b.
/, materially increased by having the
j. proper displays on Shipley street. The
n people are also seeking Shipley stree
1 and the cross streets to avoid the
high rents and It is only reasonable
to believe that Shipley street shoul'
, have the advantage above the eros

WASHINGTON. July 15-It was
predicted here today that Japan will

Those who ventured this assertion
