ESCAPE
FROM ELECTROCUTION
Shocked By Live Wire

Jane and Agnes Miller, aged Z
and years respectively, daughters
of Mr.. and Mrs. John Miller, had a
narrow escape early Monday even
ing when they caught hold of a
live wire on Delaware avenue op-
posite st. Thomas Episcopal
church, thinking it was string.
The fact that their father was
nearby probably saved the child
rem from being electrocuted. 1t was
one of the town electric light wires
and had been broken during the
storm early Monday morning, fall
ing over telephone wire.
The wire was dangling over the
pavement and as the two little girls
passed under it each caught hold Of
the wire at the same time. The cur
rent was so severe they were unable
to let go although thrown to the
ground. Their screams brought
their father who was walking some
yards away from the wire but in
doing so received the current him
self and was twice knocked to the
ground. Both Of the girls were
stunned and their hands slightly
burned.

Company E Leaves This Week

Members Of Company E, Or
ganlzed Militia Of Delaware, leave
Friday for the State Rifle Range,
New Castle, where they assemble
preparatory to their long hike to
southern Delaware.
The camp at the range will look
more like a regular army outfit in
the field for actual duty than has
been seen in this section since the
Spanish-American war. The SOL
dlers will have nothing but their
shelter tents to live in, better
known as "dog" tents. On the
ground will be ten transport wag-
ons and the army ambulance.
There will be about forty horses to
haul the wagons and for the mount
ed officers.
The start will be made early
Monday morning. The men will be
given hearty meal before start
ing each morning, for the officers
believe they will be better able to
stand the long hike mapped out for
each day after they have eaten
heartily.
1t is planned that each days OBJ
Jective point shall be reached about
IL O'Clock in the morning. The
camp will be pitched Immediately
and preparations will be made for
dinner. AS each site is near a
stream or lake the soldiers will be
permitted to swim all afternoon, if
they care to, as there will be no
drilling or other exercises during
the afternoon and evening. Even
ing parade will be held at each
stopping place. The regimental
review will be held in Dover on
Thursday.
The line will be very imposing
and something worth seeing. There
will be 600 men, ten army trans
ports, one army ambulance with
twenty-five mounted officers. In
addition there will be a band and
the hospital detachment. The res
idents of the towns where the mil
itia will stop each night are MAX
ing extensive preparations to re-
ceive the soldiers. Each evening
there will be a program Of enter
tainments of some kind for the' sol
diers.

Board OF Trade At Reception

In the reception to the Chamber
Of Commerce last week, the New
ark Board Of Trade was represent
ed by President d. G. Rose in a
four-passenger Ford touring car.
Three seats were vacant. Any or
ganization worthy Of the name
would have had a hundred citizens
in line to meet our friends and
Newark would have appn-"ed IN
the Wilmington papers in keeping
with her position. AS it was, the
daily reports said the party stop,
ped at Newark. And that was all
they could say, so far as the Board
of Trade was concerned.

Sad Death From Drowning

Nancy, the two-year-old daugh-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. r. r. M. Car
penter. of MOntchanin, fell into the
pool of a fountain at the country
residence of Pierre S. DUPONT
Monday and was drowned.
Practically every effort known to
medical science was made to re-
store the life Of the little one, but
after three hours endeavor she
was given up as dead.
The tragic death of the little
girl came as a prostrating blow to
Mr.. and Mrs. Carpenter and was
fearful shock to their relatives
and friends who heard of it.
Little Nancy was one Of party
who had spent a week at Pierce s
Park, Mr.. duPont's beautiful es-
tate near Kennett Square. In
playing about the place, the little
girl, the pride of the Carpenter
household and all who knew her,
tOppled into the pool Of the foun-
tain, 1t is rather deep.
Three or four minutes elapsed
before the alarm was given and the
little girl was pulled from the pool.
Meanwhile telephone messages
We're sent to physicians in Kennel
Square, Wilmington and the sur
rounding country.
The Wilmington Gas Company
also was appealed to for the use of
It's pulmotOr, w. J. Frame and
Harry Croak leaped into a power
tuI automobile and dashed at high
speed to the DUPONT estate.
Physicians applied various treat
ments for resuscitation and the prt-
motor also was used for more than
Two hours, but without avail. About
IIorty minutes had elapsed after the
drowning before the pulmotor could
De put in service. The body of
the little girl was removed later to
'3e home of her parents on Mont
chanin road.
A party Of fourteen children, of
wnlch little Nancy Carpenter was
10 be one, to visit the Philadelphia
zoo zoo mad been planned, but there
Will be sadness instead of joy for
the children.

A regular meeting Of the w. H.
M. S. Of the M. E. church was held
on Friday afternoon at the home
of Mrs. Cameron. After a busi-
ness meeting, Miss Ritz gave the
Society most interesting and in
structive account of her work dur
ing the past year, among the noun
tain white of North Carolina. Com
ing as she does right from the work
made her talk doubly impressive.
A social hour followed. Adjourn

Hard Weather For Farmers

The saying that ''The weather
never suits the farmer" is pretty
nearly true this season. The early
drouth, the worst in this section
for years, cut the hay crop very
short. Now at the time of cutting,
it is almost Impossible TO get it
cut and cured with any degree of
satisfaction. Especially is this
true Of the clover hay. It is dead
ripe and the daily rains is injuring
the quality. Reports are being re-
ceived, too, that wheat in the shock
is sprouting. Several farmers are
ready for threshing but unable to
do so.
The good feature, however, Of the
weather is the corn crop. Exper-
iencell farmers say they never saw
corn Sgrow so fast as it has in the
last fen days.

Delaware Apples
On The Market

In the apple orchards of Della
ware the farmers are finding
money this summer. Even the
"wind-fall" apples are not permit
ted to go to waste, for they are
picked up and shipped to the pie
factories in Philadelphia and New
York, where they bring almost as
much as good apples.
From points along the D. NJ. &
P. railroad thousands of baskets
have been shipped this week, but
from Bridgeville, Wyoming and
Dover, the great bulk of the crop is
sent away; as high as six carloads
each day goes from the larger sta
tions. The variety now going to
market is the Yellow Transparent.
From the orchards of Frank M.
Soper in middle Kent County,
four-horse wagons haul loads of
l2O hampers, or half barrels at
each load to the stations.
From Frank Bancroft s orchards
the same busy scene is repeated
while at Bridgeville in Sussex
county the apple shipments are
heavy.
Last week the prices We're very
high and Walker L. Mifflin OF
Dover, shipped two carloads tc
Pittsburgh. He received $1.15 q
basket for one car and $1.20 bas
ket for the other. Carloads range
from 400 to 600 baskets. Mr.. Milf
fin loaded the two ears in fou,
days.

RED MEN
IN CARNIVAL
BIG PARADE PLANNED

One of the most important fea-
lures of the Firemen s Carnival,
the last week in this month, will be
the Red Mems Parade, to be held
on the opening evening Of the Car
nival, Monday, July 9th.
The Red Men have gone to a
great deal Of expense and trouble to
make this evening one of enjoy
ment for all in the town Of New
ark and surrounding community.
They have sent invitations to a
number Of other tribes at Will
mington, Newport, Bear Station,
Cherry Hill and Union, to take part
in this parade, and if the weather
permits on this date they expect to
have large turn out and plenty
of red fire, and it is hoped that our
townspeople along the route Of
parade (Which will be given later
on account Of the condition Of Main
street,, will have few decora-
tions and some red fire to help
make more enjoyable by all. There
will be float in line representing
an Indian reservation, very nicely
decorated, and Indians on horse
back as well as on foot. Minnehaha
Band will furnish the music for
the parade, and the old folks at the
Red Mems Home will be repre-
sented in an automobile. Among
the tribes expected to take part in
the parade will be Delaware Tribe,
No. l, Of Wilmington, one Of the
Oldest in the State, being instituted
by the Dutch a great number of
years ago, and Lenape Tribe, No.
6, of Wilmington, Andastaka Tribe
Of Newport, Del, Little Bear Tribe
of Bear Station, Wawa Tribe Of
Union, Del, Cherry Hill Tribe Of
Cherry Hill, Nd. The parade will
start at s o'clock sharp from Acad-
emy street and proceed over the
route to be given later, returning
to the Firemen Carnival, where
there will be full and plenty for all
to enjoy themselves.

Nautical Lights For Autos

Always a red light on your port
bow, and show green on the star
bOard-this rule on the high seas
the world over has made water
traffic far safer than land.
This idea is now being tried out
on autos in Baltimore and promises
to prove popular safety device.
1t shows at a glance in which direc-
ton the car is travelling. Again
it would avoid confusion with
lighted hOrse-drawn vehicles.
1t is well worth the consideration
Of Automobile Associations.

Peach Crop In Fine Shape

E. B. Milburn, Cecil county
neighbor, reports fine prospects for
a fine crop of peaches this year. Mr..
Milburn has only small orchard
of 1900 trees but the fruit is noted
for its exceptional quality. 1t is
marked as one of the finest orch
ards in the State.
Judging from reports it is hoped
that some of this fruit will come
Newark way.

The selection of the right type of
man for each job is not easy Each
man must formulate his own rules
for handling men, which will vary
in every case. Great commanders are
born, not made, but-careful study
of personality will not injure the
greatest commander.
Buying machine tools is much like
buying dogs. The man who starts
out, without knowing what breed he
wants is apt to get a mongrel, and
gets neither satisfactory results nor
does he give satisfaction to the sales
man. "Know what you want" Is a
good motto to learn before entering
the salesroom.
Trifies make a big difference in the
practical use of tools in a shopI a
lathe with an even number of teeth
In the head gear permits the easy ro-
tation of the spindle in fractions of
a turn, while one with an uneven
number of teeth is difficult to handle;
yet these small points are often over
looked.
Part-time schools for young boys
are in vogue in many places and are
doing much good; but they do not
benefit the older boys and men whose
age prohibits their attendance at
these schools. 1t is suggested that

Would you save yourself from the
bother of baggage when you go on
your trip which will include several
stopping-off places? Would you go
carefree of thought of trunk checks,
yet safe in the knowledge that every
spot at which you stop will produce
the desired clean linen and fresh
starched attire?
Then fall In line with the Parcel
Post Brigade.
Gradually that postal institution of
less than two years standing has
grown to become one Of the most es-
sential requisites of the happiness
and comfort of the traveller.
Banishes Baggage Troubles.
From the luxury of having your for
gotten frock shipped on to you at
the cost Of a few pennies and very
little delay the parcel post has grown
to be used with forethought, not as
an afterthought. 1t has vanquished
baggage perplexities for the travelling
man and the auto tourist.
1t has come to be an especial bless
ing to the wanderluster who prefers
to take his vacation wandering
through the country, putting up over
night at wayside inns or farmhouses.
These days when the traveller who
has Joined the Parcel Post Brigade
arrives at the inn at shutdown worn
and weary with the dust of the road
he is led to cool bedroom to pre-
pare for the evening meal and a pack
age awaits him.

once upon time there lived an old
woman whose husband was dead. She
was very ugly, and had only one son.
Right next door to her there lived a
wicked old man. His wife was dead
and Ms only child was girl.
One day the old man sent his
daughter to tell the old woman that
he wanted to marry her. She readily
agreed, so they were married at once.
The young girls name was Roxana,
and the young mans name was
Romeo. Roxana was sixteen years
old and Romeo was nineteen years
old. They were both as beautiful as
the sun, and as good as they were
beautiful. They loved each other as
much as they possibly could.
Day by day the old woman kept
putting the girl to harder and harder
tasks, so Roxana and Romeo decided
to run away and seek their fortunes.
They took no food with them, so, OF
course, they soon got very hungry
Pretty soon they found some black
berry bushes so they picked some
and lay down to sleep. The next day
they had better luck, for they came

Parcel Post Aids Travellers

There in the package is slowed all
the clean apparel that will make the
man emerge from his room as chip
per as a freshly clipped colt, and the
girl-if the traveller be feminine-will
come forth as dainty as the butterfly
fresh from the cocoon. But before
they leave the package will again be
done up, this time containing the
cast-off clothes, and addressed home
Then when the time comes to set
off on the next lap of the pilgrimage
the wayfarer starts off again, unbur-
dened with any clumsy and uncom-
Portable baggage. Life is without care
or responsibility.
OF course to use the parcel post in
this fashion requires the aforesaid
forethought, but as in the case of
nearly all forethought it pays. The
making out of an itinerary Of stop
ping places and the addressing of the
proper package to the proper place is
far less arduous than marring your
journey throughout with the weight
and inconvenience of baggage. And
the auto tourist sees it in the same
way.
Instead of encumbering his machine
with trunks and suit-cas he packs
his packages. mails them in the par
eel post and when he reaches his
various destinations he finds crisply
fresh shirt with arms just waiting to
embrace him.
Really it is a nice sort of welcome.

Ancient Pueblo Indians

In a report on the Museum Gates
expedition which investigated the
culture of the ancient Pueblos of the
upper ella River region of New Mex
ico and Arizona. DIR. Walter Hough,
of the United States National Muse
UNI, states that among thousands OF
interesting and valuable objects per-
tanning to the lives of the early in
habitants, many dried vegetables,
fruits and other perishable articles
were found, as well as dessicated
turkey.
In a cave which formed the rear
chamber Of a row of ruined stone
abodes on the banks of the Tularosa
River, a tributary of the San Fran
cisco River, the explorers found much
material representative of the domeS-
tic life of the ancient jewellers. Upon
excavation, this cave room yielded its
treasures in sections as it were, diff
ferent depths offering distinctly
marked periods of occupation. Among
the objects of importance was brush
made of grass stems bound in round
bundle, similar to those in use by the
Pueblo Indians of today. During the
habitation of this cave four burials
had been made at different times,
shown by the different levels from
which the digging had been begun.
IN one COTUGIy HSttA a 1 pNh mass 9oAALS
small bows and arrows and other Of
ferings were unearthed, indicating the
location of an ancient shrine.
From rubbish and debris the re-
mains of several mammals and birds
were identified; among them deer,
pronghorn, bison, woodchuck, mice,
rats, muskrats, rabbits, lynx, fox,
skunk, bear, a hawk, an adult turkey,
chicks and eggs, and many feathers
of other birds, all of which occupied
the cave at one time or another or
were killed and stored there by the
early Indians. From early historical
reports it has been understood that
the Pueblos raised turkeys, but the
discovery of this dessicated adult and
chicks proves conclusively that tur-
KEYS were kept in captivity, probably
for their feathers, which were used in
the manufacture of native garments,
Ears and scattered grains of corn
of a smooth and short grain, in yell
low corn, blue and carmine, but much
faded with aging, we're also found.
as well as the remains and seeds OF
gourds, squashes, beans, other vege-
tables and fruits and nuts.
In the Tularosa cave there was pot
terry of a rude form, while from sew
eraI large open-air pueblos examples
of very fine finish and Ornamental
ton were collected. The designs on
the bowls commonly consist Of four
elements based on the world quarters,
the bottom usually being circular and
blank. Other designs are of combined
Matching and solid color or of a
