a Trick Game.

Jennie loved to spring new games on
her friends when they came to see
her, so she eagerly awaited little
crowd the other day, all members Of
her class, who invited themselves up
after school. This time the new game
was called "it," and ut" was a mys-
terry to all the guests but three. These
three were allowed to remain in the
room with Jennie, while the others
were sent into the next room.
In the game Of ut" each one Is call
ed In in turn and Is allowed to ask
questions, and as soon as one catches
on to "it' she becomes one Of the inner
circle, and the next one is called in.
'Tt" is really the person who sits on
your left, but before "it' is discovered
much fun Is experienced.
All In the playroom must sit In cir
Gle and must not change their posi-
tons during the progress Of the game.
When the player is called in he Is told
to ask q question Of whomsoever he
may please, and the person must an
swer correctly.
For example, ais it white?"
AS everybody present is white, the
answer is necessarily Eyes"
The Queshoner then asks any ques.
ton, such as "Is IT thin?" II the one
on the left of the questioner Is thin the
answer is In the affirmative. The ques'
toner then asks another, "Do you also
think IT Is thinT' And If the one seat.
ed on her left is stout she answers
mo" And thus the questioner is mys
tilted and must continue until he
guesses "It''
at" should be announced as q trick
game.

TuE FARMERS FREE LIST BILL.

It is reported from Washington that
President Taft has already begun to
nr.n,re his veto Of the Farmers Free
List Bill. This will be unfortunate Tor
the president, inasnuch as it will be Just
what hi, political enemies 10 the re-
publican party expect OF him. il nc
has alienated, as they contend, large
portion OF the farmers OF the north
west Ivy his Canadian agreement, what
must be the result Of his veto OF 0ill
togive the farmers some relief from
tariff exactions The chief grounds OF
the veto are that the bill is passed With
out a report OF the presidents tari1i
commission, and that the bill is not
scientifically" constructed. There was
inst about as much reason for awaiting
a report of the tariff commission on the
reciprocity bill as there is for vetolng
this bill, because the commission has
not reported on it after a delay OF more
than two years and an expenditure OF
nearly half million dollars. This
Farmers Free List is after all but a
supplement Of the reciprocity bill; and
of one is a judicious measure so is the
other.
AS for the ground that the Farmers
Bill is not formulated on a scientific
BIZ sis, the country has heard good
deal OF that sort of plea. 1t is asserted
by the bene6ciaries OF the wool sched-
ule that it is the most scientifically con-
structed in the whole tariff. Much the
same thing is said OF the cotton sched-
uIe. But the people Of this country
have become tired Of being sclentll-
cally robbed by the tariff. Their eX-
perience causes them to prefer more
common sense and less alleged science
in tariff legislation. At the same time
they are weary OF waiting for futile re-
ports Of the tariff commission with its
more or less untrustworthy statistics
gathered by inexpert agents with whom
the salary is the chief consideration.
Bv vetoiug this bill the president will
represent that minority Of the Amerl-
eau people whose interest in tariff plum
der il paramount to the public welfare.
It will he his fault il he abide with this
minority.

BELIEVES HIS SONS INNOCENT.

Henry G. Beattie, sr., in leaving the
cell OF his son, accused Of wife-murder,
in the Henrico county Jail, yesterday,
broke the silence that he has main
tanned since the arrest of his son on the
serious charge and said:
I honestly believe my son will be
acquitted. Never for an instant have
believed him guilty"
The most startling and hideous phase
OF the brutal murder developed yester.
day, when the state, in preparing its
evidence, reached the conclusion that
Henry Clay Beattie, jr., felled his wife
with the butt OF the gun and, while her
PROSTATE body lay at his feet, fired the
shot that severed life's thread.
The state believes the alleged muir
derer took his wife to the lonely spot
OF Midlothian turnpike on the night Of
July IS and. under a pretense that the
automobile engine had failed, stopped
the car and picked up the gun. The
murdered woman evidently showed re-
sistance, when he struck her with the
gun and felled her to the ground.
Then, placing his foot on her body, he
held the gun close to her left cheek
and fired.
A bruise on the right cheek OF the
dead woman gives the theory OF her
having been struck before the shot was
fired. Her forehead was knocked in
with some blunt instrument, evidently
the gunstock.
The state will urge an immediate
trial after the grand jury renders its
verdict on August II.
1t is stated that the electrician at the
State Penitentiary says he will resign
bis job before he will put Bcattie
through the wires, !" as the young man
is warm personal friend OF his.
Another Richmond woman who
overheard Beattic's conversation with
Beulah Biuford at Norfolk last spring,
when he is alleged to have said OF his
wife, "l'll get rid OF her," was located
today and will appear before the grand
jury.

THE PASSING OF w. ]. BRYAN.

From the time William Jennings
BRYAN first entered the political arena
il was evident to his friends az we'll as
foes that he had bad case of cacoethes
loouendi His malady has become
aggravated in later years. until 1t Is
making him cheap with the thousands
who voted for him on three different
occasions for president His presump.
ticn in opening 3 school for possible
candidates for chief executive on the
democratic ticket as we'll as his effron-
t.ry in preparing a catechism Tor such
have been met with frowns, while his
propensity for attacking prominent
representatives Of his o%n party IS
bringing forth resentment which he
might have expected. His recent at
tack on Mr.. Underwood, chairman Of
the ways and means committee 0! the
House Of Representatives caused the
latter to give SIR. Bryan prominent
seat in The Ananias Club yesterday and
to bring down upon him the displeasure
OF the rank and file OF the organization
which for fifteen years have borne the
heavy load incident Of the Nebraskan.
The scene in the House was virtual
reputation OF Mr.. Bryan as the self
constituted leader Of the democratic
party. The ovation given Mr.. Under
wood in the House is the best indica-
lion that his words were affirmed by
The representatives OF the party as
>smbed on the floor as not voice was
heard in support OF Mr.. Bryan, while
members stood upon chairs, waving
handkerchief, aud yelling at the tops OF
their voices As an aftermath Of yes
tardav's scenes Ohio democrats and
other boomers OF Governor Harmon for
president are jubilant over the failure
of Mr.. Bryan to make good his attack
ON Chairman Underwood. Another
significant development Of this highly
interesting situation is the suggestion OF
Harmon and Underwood" as the
democratic ticket for 1917.

DOLLAR NOW FOR
PATROL JOY RIDE
Advent Of Real Hurry Wagon
Increases Cost Of
JaGS

Another upward trend in the "hign
cost OF living" will be made tomor-
row, when the new automobile patrol
wagon Of Wilmington will be put into
service.
Heretofore persons arrested and
convicted in. city court have had sew
enty cents costs assessed against
them for a ride in the patrol wagon.
Even some of those arrested without
a ride in the patrol wagon have been
assessed the seventy cents just the
same. They ought to have ridden,
maybe.
But with the formal placing in
service of the automobile patrol to-
morrow, the cost of a ride in the
"hurry-up" will be advanced 1t will
be one dollar hereafter. and that
amount will be assessed in the court
costs against persons convicted. Thus,
patrol wagon ride from the north
ern or western edge of the city Will
cost about as much fare in a taxicab
for that distance There's certainly
some class to riding in the new auto
patrol, and the dollar costs for that
privilege will help to make arrested
persons realize the dignity of the
auto patrol compared with the horse
pulled patrol.

CERTIFICATES
FOR UNDERTAKES
State Board to Meet Here on
August Is to Qualify
Men

The Undertakers' Association OF
Delaware, which practically went out
of existence on February 26 of this
year, by placing all Of its business
in the hands of President J. B. Martin
and Secretary James T. Chandler, will
soon reorganize under the new law
regulating the profession. Under
this law all undertakers doing busi-
ness in this state must be registered
and pay a license fee. The commits
sion appointed by the Legislature TO
see to the enforcement Of the law
will meet with the undertakers at the
Clayton House on Friday, August IS.
After partaking of a luncheon the as
sociation will 90 before the commits
sion and be registered and secure
their licenses. The commissioners
are: James McGillon, J. b. Martin.
Of Wilmington; William A. FAIRIES, Of
Smyrna; Charles H. Clewell, of New
Castle, and Mr. Atkins, of Seaford.
Secretary James T. Chandler, of the
old association, has sent letters to all
of the Delaware undertakers asking
them to attend the meeting and regis
ter.
Under this new law an undertaken
from another state cannot do work of
his profession in Delaware without
first being registered, pass an ex-
animation and take out a license. He
can work through a local undertaken
under the same conditions that Del
aware undertaken has to confront in
other states, especially Pennsylvania

FIGHT ON OVER
ROAD MONEY

GEORGETOWN, Del, Aug 1.-The
handling of $4,000 annual road money
is the cause OF a fight against the Levy
Court Of Sussex county. which began
yesterday I'm application to the Court Of
Chancery for a preliminary injunction
forbidding the Levy Court TO spend the
special county road tax until disputed
authority over it is determined
Four years ago at the instance Of
Senator Drexler, of Bethany Beach, a
bill was passed I'm the Legislature, Gre
ating the Office of road engineer IN
Sussex county and giving him COM
plete charge of the roads and all the
money which was to be spent upon
them. At the request of the Levy Court
prominent lawyers looked over the bill
after it was passed and gave as their
opinion that the road engineer was one
in name only and that although he con-
trolled the regular road tax amounting
to about $4,000, the special tax which,
with the State appropriation, amounts
to nearly $4,000. could not be touched
bv him and that that money would
still be controlled by the Commits
sioners as formerly.
Since that opinion was delivered. the
Commissioners of the county have
gone ahead with their district road
work as heretofore. building roads
where they pleased and having from
$4,000 TO $4,000 each to spend, while the
road engineer would have less than
$1,000 to spend in the same district.
The matter drifted along until Levy
Courtman Spicer, of Georgetown, be-
gan to gravel a small side road when
the big road to Laurel had been graded
and was expected TO be attended TO az
once. This aroused citizens who are
working for good roads and at a con-
ference with Senator Drexler, the au-
thor Of the bill, plans were laid to
have the Courts take charge of the
money and turn II over to the road en-
gineer. TO whom they claim it right
fully belongs.
Should the Courts next week uphold
the bill IL will mean that the road en-
gineer will have nearly S65,000 every
year at his disposal for building roads

The Street and Sewer Directors are

wire conditions. and It is expected
that some action will be taken to have
all overhead wires removed from tho
business section in the near future

This has been one of the problems
confronting Directors Sparks, Ru-
dolph and Murphy and they have been
trying to figure out the best method
Of bringing about the abolition OF
overhead wires They expect to have

The ornamental lighting plan for
Market street contemplates putting
underground all wires except the

DRAWING COURT
HOUSE PLANS
Present Intention Is to Add
Two Stories to Present
Structure

Architect John d. Thompson, Jr., is
now preparing sketches for the Court
House addition. The present idea is
to raise the Court House building two
stories and in that way the necessary
additional room can be acquired.
At this time the clerks of the office
of Recorder of Deeds are scattered
through the building. The most SER
ious consideration at this time, how
ever, is care of the county records.
Following the work of Architect
Thompson the Levy Court will approve
the plans and proceed with the work.
It is hoped to have it finished next
year.
The revised plans for the admins
tration building at Hope Farm have
not been finished by Mr.. Thompson.
The bids submitted by the contractors
on the previous plans were too high.
Mr.. Thompson today sent out bids
for a concrete residence with tile
roof to be built near Rockford Park
