RESIGNATION is ACCEPTED

The Resignation of Police Commits
sioner William Bonnet was accepted by
Mayor Haussling today. Ill health is
given as the reason. Although 1t has
been generally known that Mr.. Bonnet
wished to sever his connection with the
police board, and that he had taken
steps to withdraw from the board, his
resignation was not given officially I'M
til today.
1t is almost certain from present In

Republican ticket last fall. will sue
coed Commissioner Bonnet.
The mayor has not officially made
such a statement, but it is understood
that Baumann will be named.

AN AMUSING INCIDENT

A man was walking through
Westminster recently when he
perceived, just ahead of him, an
acquaintance whose handkerchief
was sticking out of his pocket.
Seized with a brilliant idea, he
quickened his pace, and stepping
up just behind his friend with
drew the handkerchief altogether,
without the owner being in the
least aware of what had taken
place.
He was just about to address
him and call his attention to what
he had done when he felt a tap on
the arm, and, half turning, con-
fronted a quiet, gentlemanly-
looking man, who returned to the
man his own purse, handkerchief
and bunch of keys, and at the
same time saying:

know you were one of US.

Across Delaware Innovation
in Road Making.

Although the present time there are

mile road which General Coleman du

through the state OF Delaware.
General du Pont felt that any amount
of money which he might give for road
would be OF far greater benefit aud
would have a far better influence on the
happiness and material prosperity Of the
people OF his stale than any other prof.
est he might select. To quote his own
words My object in building the road
is nor only 10 provide good highway
where it is badly needed. but also TO

The problem is. how can a free country

TIE solution of this problem as worked
out by General du Pont as result of his
experience on the Delaware read. Is a
system OF graduated assessments. 60
