to Get $4,000 More for
Federal Building
PRESENT APPROPRIATION
OF $4,000 NOT ENOUGH

SMYRNA, Del. July 11.-Congress-
man Franklin Brockson, since he has
been III Wilmington. has given some
attention to seeing Smyrna get its
Federal building and recently he had
several conferences with the Super
Wsing Architect. The latter after
being pressed into a consideration Of
the plans, informed Mr.. Brockson
that the appropriation was not suf-
ficent to carry out the details and
that more funds would be needed if
Smyrna was to have the building
erected of the size and proportions
needed.
Congress. 1t will be remembered.
has already passed an appropriation
for $4,000 of which $500 has been
expended for the old Smyrna House
site. After talking over the project
with the architect. Congressman
Brockson thinks he win have no
trouble in getting an increase in ap-
preparation to $4,000 At least. he
has the support and influence of the
Supervising Architect in the project.
Congress is too busy discussing tariff
at this session, but next winter, when
Congress meets, Congressman Brock
son intends seeking an additional ap-
preparation of $4,000, which he
hopes will be available along with
the original fund. for the Supervising
Architect when he takes up the
Smyrna building plans next spring
Should there be no delay in extra
appropriations, work will be pushed
eXpeditely The architects are far
behind with their work and Smyrna
tas simply had to wait its turn.
Senator Richardson. while in office.
tried to hasten the Federal Building
matter for Smyrna. and finally the
word was given out that under no cir
cumstance would consideration be
given until 1914. The outlook now
looks bright for this time and Con-
gresham Brockson has assured Post
master Jefferson that he will do
everything in his power 10 see that
Smyrna gets prompt and proper at
tention. AT any event. a Federal
Building for Smyrna in 1914 seems
assured.

Threats Cause Man
to Commit Suicide;
Known in this City

Considerable mystery surrounds
the strange death of NJ. W. Ramsey,
a sheep owner. who committed sui
eide Monday ON his ranch near Sap
inero, in Gunnison county. The man
had many friends in Grand Junction.
He went to lonely spot on his
ranch and shot the top of his head
off with a rifle. There are extenu-
ating circumstances which lead to the
belief that the man was led to COM
nit the act through fear of the car
rying out of dire threats he had re-
ceived in anonymous letters.
He had worried incessantly about
the threats against life and property
and, when financial troubles topped
the heap of trouble, his nature gave
in and he ended his life. Mr.. RAM
sey had visited in the Grand valley
several times and had run sheer
through here.

THIEF GETS SMALL

M0SLANOER STORE

Clyde Moslander's cigar store and
billiard hall was entered by a thief
last night and 81. Slztn cSiafEe which
was left in the wide-open cash regis
ter drawer was distracted. The
thief apparently ignored everything
else as the stock of fine pipes, cigars,
tobaccos and candy shows no signs
of thievery The robber tried the
safe lock and attempted to work the
combination. but did not tamper with
tools.
Entrance TO the store was made by
tearing off about 0 inches of the top
of the screen of one Of the rear win
dows and crawling over the top of
the window sash. then dropping to
the floor, II was Il very small apera-
ture and no large man could have
made it. hence it is thought that a
very small man or a boy did the
work. Exit was made the same way,
although the thief could have gone
out of the door with greatest ease by
simply removing a bar. The robbery
was committed between 2 O'Clock
last night and $50 this morning.
Inc ponce are working on the case.
A number of suspicious characters
are being watched.

Word came from the White House
that another member would be ap-
pointed in place of Post; but the SIT
