.AGEDY IN FAR NORTH

Foul Members of Canadian Mounted
Police Perished From Cold.
Ottawa, April 19.-News of one OF
the worst tragedies in the annals OF
the Royal Northwest Mounted police
was received here by Colonel White,
conn mandant, in telegram from
Dawson, sent by Inspector Dempster,
saying that the news of the four mem
berS of the patrol who left Dawson
last fall to make the usual march to
MACPHERSON, had fallen victims of the
coldb was true.
The members of the Fort MacPher-
son expedition were Inspector F. j.
Fitzgerald and Constables Carter, Kin
ney and Taylor.
When the men we're forty days over
duel a searching party was sent out
from Dawson, with the result that the
dead bodies of Kinney and Taylor
were found thirty miles from Fort
Macpherson and the bodies of Fftz-
gerald and Carter twenty-five miles
from the fort. The men had perished
almo in sight of their goal.
While the cause of the tragedy will
probably never be definitely known it
is assumed by the department that the
party had trouble with their dogs and
had attempted to return to Fort Mac
Pherson.

suffragan bishops in this country was

needs of the larger dioceses, notably
those of New York and Pennsylvania.

cese. Bishop Bowman was known as
assistant bishop to Bishop Alonzo Pot

Bishop Whitaker was assistant bishop
to Bishop Stevens until the latter's

A Misrepresentation on the other

For this reason far greater interest
attaches to the question of who will

new Misrepresentation will become
bishop of Pennsylvania.

Rebels Evacuate Aqua Prieta.

Aqua Prieta, Mex, April 19.-It was

into the town, had been more effective

Fifty bodies were found lying in the
streets, buildings were perforated and
many adobe residences were shelter
ing wounded non-combatants, includ-
ing several women and children.
Part of the insurrecto garrison was
scattered in the abandonment Of the
town. Throwing away their guns and
leaving their horses, they fed in dis
order in different directions. The prin-
cipal portion of the rebel command,
however, retired in good order toward
the mountains south of the city. Two
insurrecto commanders, Balazario
Garcia and Colonel Medina, deserted
their men and fed across the border.
where they surrendered to the Amer
ican troops.
The actual casualties of the battle
can only be estimated, but the federal
loss was given out as five killed and
twenty-one wounded and the rebels as
eight killed and four wounded. 1t is
certain that the complete casualties
far exceeds this total. The ports OF
Douglas and Aqua Prieta, which has
been closed, were reopened.

continuance of the bombardment and
feared heavy casualties on the Ameri-
can side of the line.

State Federation to Meet at Rehoboth
Tomorrow (Thursday) and Friday
The Delaware State Federation of
Women's Clubs will hold it's four
teenth annual convention at Rehoboth
or Thursday and Friday of this week.
The delegates of the Twentieth Gen.
tury Club of Smyrna will go down
tomorrow morning, some of whom
will be entertained at Bells cot
tage. One hundred women from all
sections of the State are expected to
attend, the larger portion of them
officers and delegates. This is the
election year of the Federation and
there are three strong candidates,
Mrs. John C. Robinson, of Whining
ton, who for a number of years has
worked efficiently as member and
chairman of the educational COM
mittee; Mrs. 8. J. Reynolds, of
Smyrna, for whom the Smyrna dele
gates will work hard, and Mrs.
George w. Emory, of Seaford. All
are excellent and each has had con-
siderable experience in State and
local club work. Mrs. James Pen
newill of Dover, is to be brought
forward by her club for vice-presi-
dent from Kent, the three vice-presi-
dents coming one from each county.
Arrangements for the reception and
entertainment of delegates have
been made by the Rehoboth club.
The one purely social event of the
Federation will be luncheon on
Saturday at one O'Clock at the home
of Mrs. E. B. Riley, chairman of
hospitality. Friday evening will
also probably be a semi-social oc-
casion, as it is the installation of
officers.

SMYRNA HOUSE SITE IS
CHOSEN FOR POSTOFFICE
COMMITTED OF FIFTEEN RECEIVE
WORD FROM WASHINGTON
Communication Came to Hand This
Morning-Opposition Revived to
Prevent Tearing Down Hotel

The Committee of Fifteen"
received a communication from the
U. S. Treasury Department this
morning stating that the Smyrna
House site had been selected for
Smyrna's new $25, 900 Federal Build
ing contingent of course upon the
title being right. United States Dis
trict Attorney Nields, of Wilmington,
is examining the title. The announce
ment is no surprise to those who
have kept in close touch with the
happenings of the past year. Since
the COMMITTEE of Fifteen" volun-
teered to put up the difference on the
Smyrna House site and secured the
authority from Smyrna Town Coun-
Gil that in the event of the property
being accepted they would condemn
eel tain streets around said proposed
site, il has been known that this has
been the ony complete proposition
before the Supervising Architect.
The Government limit for site pur-
poses is one-ffth of the appropria-
tion and as S5, 900 was only available
for this purpose, the number of
other sights proposed were in excess
of this amount. No one volunteered
to put up the difference on any of
the sites and this has left the Com
mittee of Fifteen in entire control
of the situation. The act even
knocked out the contemplated bond
issue urged at the time the Smyrna
postoffice bill passed Congress.
There is now and has been much op-
position to tearing down the Smyrna
House, a famous old landmark,
aside from the fact that it would
leave Smyrna with but one hotel.
Yesterday four petitions were circu-
lated to head off the tearing down
of the Smyrna House, but it is re-
garded as late. The opposition has
had ample time in which to place
another site in proper shape before
the Department. They delayed too
long in the matter and the Govern
ment has made its decision. 1t il
understood the money will be avail
able July the first.
