early yesterday morning, burning the
grocery and general store Of Mrs.
George {. Heinold, and its contents to
the ground. The fire is supposed to
have been incendiary. According to
story published in the Wilmington
Evening Journal, 1T is believed to
have been set on fire by thieves TO
hide their crime. That the flames
did not spread 10 the house occupied
by Mrs. Heinold near by and other
property. was due to the effective
work Of the residents of the place and
| fire fighters who came from Townsend
in an automobile upon receiving an
appeal for help. There IS no fire
company at Blackbird and it required
hard work to keep the blaze confined
to the store property, a one-story
frame structure. There was nothing
in the store that could have started
fire and some folks are firm
in the belief that the store wa
broken into and robbed and then Sc

CITY Election Saturday Results in Elee-
ton of Mayor Howell and Ticket.
DR.. Harrison w. Howell. Republi-
can and National Progressive, was re-
elected Mayor Saturday by a plur-
ality of 1,245 over DR.. Willard
Springer, Democrat. The entire Re-
publican city ticket, which was aided
by the National Progressives, was vic
torious. William P. White defeated
John J. McGovern for President Of
Council, and James F. Price won
from James J. Cahill for City
Treasurer. There were numerous
surprises. AlthO il was conceded
that Francis l. dupont, Bull Moose
Progressive nominee for Mayor, would
make a good showing, il was not be-
lieved he would poll the large vote
that he did. AS a large majority OF
his supporters were Democrats, this
was a factor in the defeat Of Spring
er. Another surprise was the defeat
of William NJ. Connolly, Democrat,
J. for member of Council for the Twelfth
ward. Altho this ward has a normal
Democratic majority of over one hum
dred, things went just the other way
Saturday and Albert N. Williams,
Republican. was elected by plural
