anti-shipping law passed at the re-
cent session of the Delaware Legisla-
ture. prohibiting the shipment OF
liquor into dry" territory, other.
wise known as local option territory,
was upheld in the Kent county court
here this morning. when three colored
men, Isaiah Vincent, Harry Steven
son and Charles Burton, were given
the full extent of the law. that OF
fine OF $500, in default of which they
we're committed to the New Castle
county workhouse.
Chief Justice Pennewill defined and
established the meaning Of local op
,ion." as applied to Kent and Sussex
counties. The charge Of the Chief
Justice to the jury was as follows;
This indictment is based upon a
recent statute of the State, known as
the Hazel Law, entitled, An act regu-
lating the shipment or carrying Of
spirituous liquor into local option ter
ritory or to the delivery OF same in
such territory
"Te manifest purpose of this act
Is to prevent the shipment. trans
portation, delivery. carrying or bring
ing into local option territory of this
State of spiritous. viniOus or malt
liquors. We say to you that the words
Local Option Territory as employed
in the act, means territory wherein
the manufacture and sale OF spiritu-
Gus, yinous and malt liquors is unlaw-
ful; and We furthtr say that Kent
county. is such local option territory.
Section G OF the act provides as
follows: That it shall be unlawful
for any person to carry, bring or have
bought any quantity of spirituOus,
vinous or malt liquor from any point
within the state OF Delaware into local
option territory Wlthin said said state,
greater than one gallon. within the
space of twenty-four hours If you
believe from the evidence In this case,
that the defendant did, as alleged in
the indictment, carry or bring into
this county, on the 18th day of the
present month a quantity OF spiritu-
Gus liquor exceeding one gallon. your
verdict should be guilty. We think il
proper to say to yeg thai this case ss
to be decided like any other case upon
the evidence and the law al upon
nothing else
It does not make any difference
what may be thought Of the propriety
of wisdom of the law; the sole ques-
tloa that concerns the court and the
iuTy is whether the prisontr is guilty
OF not guilty under The evidence.
The evidence produced by the state
is not controverted by the defendant
He shall not, however. be convicted
unless the state has proven his guilt

this afternoon and defeated Lafayette q
to In a. drfzzling rain. A tumble and
penalty. each time when the ball was
on the visitors one-yard line, prevented
Yale from making two more touchdowns.
Today's game showed the Blue eleven
strong at quarterback. Besides running
the team well, Cornish starred individ-
ually with long runs through broken
fields. te ~
Lafayette had two chances to score.
once in the second period on drop kick
from the 32-yard line, which missed its
mark by inches, and once on drop kick
from the 40-yard line The latter play
was smothered. Line rushes failed for
Lafayette. but forward passes were suc-
cessful, netting a total of 70 yards. The
Yale wing Shift heretofore crude in
its execution, was good for long gains to-
day. The Blue team tried the forward
pass once.

it for 80 per cent of their plays.
