FOR THE CELEBRATION

Commissioner Hickey this morning
stated that the boulevard beyond
Rand park which has been the source
of considerable unfavorable comment
by citizens upon the delay in finish
ing it will be completed tomorrow and
will be in good shape for use during
the celebration. The boulevard has
been closed for several months while
it has been worked on and it is the
belief of many that it is the prettiest
drive in the city. 1t is macadamized
from the park to the first turn.
Much of the other street work
around the city will be finished. 1t
is expected that the work on Fourth
street between Fulton and Franklin
will be finished and much of the con-
GREETING ON North Fifth street com
pleted.
1t is urged that every effort be
made by the people to keep the city
in first class condition during the
celebration. It is hoped that most OF
the old poles on Main street will be
removed during the week and many
merchants may take down obstruc
tons contrary to the recent ordinance
passed whether 1t is enforced or moi
SO that the white way may show
properly.

Reporter Doesn't Like It.

The work of tearing down the build
ing will continue for nearly a month
before 1t is completed. There is some.
thing uncanny about the work which
these men are engaged in A reporter
visited the scene of wreckage this
morning and labored continually I'M
der the apprehension that the walls
still standing would suddenly collapse
and bury him under the debris.
To get to the second floor where
an interesting piece OF wrecking was
being done, was matter none too
appealing. 1t was necessary to walk
through the long hall way exposed to
missiles from above, and then climb
a stairway none too safe. Hastily
reaching the corner room where
about three tons of brick were being
showed Off at one time the reporter
enjoyed great relief. The workmen
say their work Is quite interesting
and not very dangerous. One said:
do you know, work Of this kind Is
very interesting. There is a fascina-
ton about wrechng these old build
ings and watching stone, brick and
timbers torn asunder and go crashing
to the ground below.

Hr. SpiegeIhausen's Idea of Postal
Cards, However, Worked Very
Well for a Time.

Mr.. Spiegelhausen found it nard to
remember at home certain things he
had thought of in business hours, and
conversely matters that occurred 10
him at night would escape his nina
before he reached the office next
morning. After trying various I'M
successful methods of memory culti-
walton, he hit on the plan of writing
postal cards to himself and address
ing them to the other place from
which ever he happened to be in at
the moment. Thus the last mall
would bring to the house one or more
cards with such memo. scrawled
upon it: Remind Mrs. S. to give
my coat TO cleaner" and vice versa
the first mail downtown would re-
snind him: See ]. T. w. in re. thou

She could see it all, plainly. The
thought came to her suddenly that it

DEATH OF AARON REYNOLDS JR.
Attorney General Drops Case Directly
after the Re-convening of Court on
Thursday Afternoon Last.

With more than 100 witnesses
present and an intense interest on
the part of Smyrnians generally. a
sudden ending came to the B. F. Van
Wrinkle homicide case in Kent County
Court last Thursday afternoon. Van
Winkle, as previously stated. was in
dicted in the second degree for the
murder of Aaron Reynolds, Jr., on
the night of November the 27th, the
day before Thanksgiving. The trial
began Tuesday. and Thursday after
noon just after Court had reconvened
to hear more evidence on the part of
the defense, the bottom dropped
out of the whole proceedings when
Attorney General Wolcott stated to
said court he was ready to either
ask for nOlle PROSE- or urge a verdict
Of "nOt guilty. The court in reply
stated that they thought the state $
action was a most sensible one and
that they felt themselves that Van
Wrinkle could not possibly be charg.
ed with any crime under the circum-
stances. Counsel for VanWinkle at
once moved for a verdict of mot
guilty, " which the jury rendered be-
fore they left the box. The witness
es for the state had been heard the
day before and the defense was pro-
ducing their testimony on Thursday.
The witnesses residing on Market
street had been telling what they had
heard and seen on the night of the
killing of Aaron Reynolds Jr. At
the recOnvening of the court Thurs
day afternoon, Attorney Generl Wal

got up before Court and made state
ment that from the progress of the
case, which showed that a verdict of
guilty could not be expected from the
