This is done by going over it first

MAY FLUSH THE
BRANDYWINE TO
RID IT OF Slime

The Board of Health, yesterday
decided to take action upon COM
plant recently made relative to the
diversion Of water OF the Brandy
wine, causing much OF the bed OF
the river to be dry nearly the entire
summer, and forming stagnant pools
that are breeding places Of mosque
toes. The members OF the board de-
oided TO address a communication to
the city advisory board about the
complaint, and Dr. Julian Adair,
president Of the Board OF Health, will
address the advisory board on the
subject.
Members OF the Board OF Health
believe the condition could be
remedied by allowing the natural
water to rush through the river bed
at least two or three times week
for at least one hour. and II possi-
bic two or three days a week 1t Is
pointed out that this would eliminate
the stagnant pools Of water between
the rocks. This suggestion was IA
yorad by all the members OF the
board, and will probably be brought
up for general discussion between
the heads of tho Water Department
and the Board Of Health, which have
jurisdiction In the matter.

ASK PAROLE Of
WOMAN Slayer
Court Will Answer Mrs.
McKinney'S Application
on June IL
MOTION FOR A
NEW TRIAL FAILS

Argument was heard in the Court
of Oyer and Terminer this morning
on the reasons for new trial for
Mrs. Elizabeth L Mckinney, who two
weeks ago was convicted Of the
manslaughter of Delaware Reed, a
blacksmith, while he was standing
in the yard Of his home in Glasgow,
last January.
j. Frank Ball, attorney for Mrs.
Mckinney, filed his reasons for a
new trial last week. Mr., Ball ex-
planned 10 the court that since the
trial Of Mrs. Mckinney several inn
portant witnesses have been located
whose testimony will have an inn
poFtant bearing on the case. He
explained that he did not know of the
witnesses prior to the trial of the
case. and therefore 1t was not for
want of due diligence that they were
not summoned to testify at the trial.
He said that man named George
A. Price, of Glasgow, Del, was
standing in the public road near
Reeds house, and saw Mrs. MeKin-
ney run out of the back part OF the
house, He added that Price would
testify that Mrs. Mckinney called.
Mother, mother" when she ran out
of the house, but that she did not
say: Il told you | would do ii, / told
you / would do it, as Bertha Hug
gins had testified at the trial.
MIR. Ball also declared that the tes-
| timony given by Frank Brown at the
trial was false.
Attorney General Woleott in reply
declared that the new evidence men
toned by Mr.. Ball was simmaterial and
even admitting that 1t was true it
did not affect the real issue In the
case, that Mrs. Mckinney was acting
in self defense when she fired the shot
that killed Reed.
Mr.. Woloott added that the defen-
dant had not used due diligence in
dence at the trial
The court stated that the Jury had
returned its verdict after long DELHI
Grafton, and IL was only fair to con-
clude that the body gave the case
careful consideration. The court stat
ed that they did not think anything
contained In Mr. Balls arguments JUS
titled their setting aside the verdict
The motion for new trial was re-
| fused.
The jury recommended the de-
fendant to the mercy of the Court
and the Court stated they would
take this recommendation into c1u-
sideration when passing the sentence
and would make the sentence as light
as possible.
Mrs. Mckinney was then sent for
and Mr.. Ball made a motion that she
be parnled.
With MIS-. Mckinney and her thre,
small children seated in the court
room, Chief Justice Pennewill an
nounced that the Court at present
did not see how they could graz
