On Monday morning, about o'clock,
the st. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic
Church, at Warwick, was totally destroy
ed by fire. Bishop John J. Monaghan
of the Wilmington diocese, and under
whose Jurisdiction the church is man
aged, estimates the loss to be between
$4,000 and $4,000. There Ia said to be
about $500 insurance on the building
and contents, but the remainder will be
total loss. The church was one OF the
Oldest houses of worship in this section
of the country and was venerated by
people Of all denominations on that &C.
count. 1t was erected about rs years
ago, during the time of Lord Baltimore,
and has figured largely IN the history of
the Delaware Maryland Peninsula
The Rev. Charles "A. Crowley, pastor
In charge Of the church, Is stationed at
Middletown, but took regular drives to
Warwick to hold services In the ancient
edifce. Father Crowley was conducting
mass, in the church at Middletown, when
notified of the fire. He dismissed his
congregation and hurried to Warwick.
On arriving there he found the entire
building in flames. All the sacred yes
sells and vestments were saved. resi-
dence shor, distance from the church,
was threatened, but the people managed
to save 1t, although one cad of 1t was on
fire several times. 1t is thought the
flames were caused somehow, from q
defective fiue, as fire had been built.
The church will be rebuilt Immediately,
as there are about 125 parishioners and
quite large Sunday School.

Collapse OF Long Tried Case

The Circuit Court reconvened on Tues
day, when trial of Richards VS.. the
Charles A. Sims Company was resumed
and continued until yesterday morning,
when the case came to an abrupt end by
reason of the fact that two of the Jurors,
Messrs. w. ]. McDougall and John b.
Fassitt, had visited the site and sur
roundings of the destroyed Bloomsbury
mansion, which gave them information
not had by their fellow Jurors. Coun-
sci for defendants offered to proceed
with ten Jurors, but Messrs. McDougall
and Fassitt were withdrawn, leaving the
plaintiff the right to bring the suit anew.

WILSON LAW MUST GO.

In a conference held Wednesday night
after the Legislature had adjourned the
democrats determined to repeal the Will
son Law and apply the form of Ballot
used in Baltimore City to the entire
state. This decision was reached after
1t was found that the Democrats could
not be united on a plan to strip Cover
nor Goldsborough of his appointing
power. They did not want the Wilson
Law to remain in force when it would be
administered by Republican Election Su-
pervisors. They only wanted it in the
hands of their own creatures When it
seemed they were likely to get the hot
end Of the poker, they We're not long in
agreeing to fling the poker into the bot
tom of the deep. So the Wilson Law
seems doomed Thus the whirl-a-gig of
time.

seekers who Always HE to Annapolis for
a legislative session. 1t was in the shape
of resolution by Senator Harper, of
Queen Ahne's, the same resolution which
he introduced two years ago, only to be
beaten. This time he won out, getting
the votes of the eight Of the Lee Sena-
tors and Z out of Republican Senator's
The resolution limits the number of en-
p!oyes for the senats and also places
their appointment In the hands OF the
Senate itself, thereby stripping the
