AT any m . when a pro spoctive grand

dido Use Mothers Friend" there is
applc reason to believe il the right kind
OF advice.
Mothers Friend" is an external APP
piication for c2Gcctant mothers. It's pur

Although. in the nature Of things, q
woman would uss 'Muthcr's Friend" but
but rarely, yet 50 effective has it been
found that this splendid remedy is on sale
in most drug stores throughout the
tinted States. T has been prepared by

What is said herein of Mothers

I from whom it is taken is in a lit eondi-
( tion to receive it; or if such weapon
is placed in the pocket Of another acci-
IDENTIFY, without his knowledge, and he
is unconscious OF carrying il concealed
upon his purpose, in none Of these cases
would he be guilty under said act.
Many other illustrations might be used,
but those we have given are sufficient
to indicate to your minds what is
meant by the words lawful purpose
In times OF public excitement, when
a large number Of men are engaged in
a bitter controversy, which has already
led to violence and assaults, the prac
tice Of carrying concealed deadly wea
pons cannot be minmized'
"As above stated bW the court. the
very reason for the law was the menace
to the public peace and the peril to the
public safety, by persons carrying con
cealed deadly weapons in large gather
ings Of people in times Of great excite
ment.
"The evidence before me in this case
disclose that there was a large gather
ing Of men Of opposite views and opn-
ions, and under great excitement, one Of
whom was the accused, upon whom was
found a revolver or pistol, fully loaded
with cartridges containing bullets.
"Under such circumstances I fail TO
see the force OF the contention that the
fear Of attack should minimize the sem
tence.
"A person anning himself under such
circumstances can have but one idea. the
use Of the weapon; and such use, under
such circumstances, IT was the object OF
the General Assembly in passing the law
to prevent.
II nm very clear that the accused did
not carry the revolver for lawful pur-
pose as explained by our courts in the
cases quoted; his purpose was neither
specific or temporary.
ITO minimize the offense would tend
to encourage all others engaged in this
controversy to arm themselves
"To preserve the public peace, to en-
sure the safety of citizens, and TO deter
others inclined to carry deadly weapons
in the present excitement, the law must
be enforced to its full extent.
"The sentence of the court is that the
defendant forfeit and pay fine of One
Hundred Dollars. together with the
costs OF the prosecution and, in addition
thereto, that he be imprisoned in the
New Castle County WorlShouse for the
term Of six months, commencing today,
and ending january, A. D., 1915"

CITY HELPS NEW
LIBRARY PROJECT
VIII Give $4,000 Addi-
tional Yearly If $3OO,O 900
Is Raised
CAMPAIGN FOR
FUNDS POSSIBLE

Members Of City Council. in commit
tee Of the whole meeting last night
unanimously approved the request OF
the board Of managers Of the Will
mington Institute Free Library Asso-
citation for the city to appropriate
per cent. Of any amount up to $780,
000 that the association may collect
for a fund to erect a new library
building, thus assuring Wilmington Of
a splendid new library building That
this building is greatly needed has
been admitted by everyone, as the
present library is inadequate. It Is
understood that the new building will
be located somewhere in the vicinity
Of Tenth and Market streets, and Will
conform somewhat to the new twin
building. which Is being erected at
Tenth and King streets. The board Of
managers of the library appeared be-
fore Council several weeks ago, and
explained that the city several years
ago agreed to pay to the library 5 per
cent. of the amount the library might
raise, up 10 100000, OF $4,000 should
they be successful in raising the en-
tire sum. The board asked Council to
increase this limit to 100000. or pay
to the library the sum of $4,000 an
nually for maintenance, should the IL
brary succeed in raising 100000 TO
erect a new building This request
was granted unanimously by the
Councilmen. and will necessitate the
city appropriating $4,000 annually to
the library, in addition to the SIS
430 now appropriated. The new ape
preparation, however, will not have 10
be made until the library has collected
S30o,o00 by subscription. II was the
opinion of the Councilmen that tho
new building should be erected some
where near the present Court House
block, and make this the civic centre
Of the city. Serious consideration is
not given to the suggestion that the
present Court House building be con
verted into library building. as the
scheme is not believed 70 be practical
Y IS thought that after the old Court
House Is removed. and the plot OF
ground is fixed up as a park. that
no one would want another building
erected there
Unless the library succeeds in rails
ing the required amount the city win
not be obliged 70 pay anything. ac-
eording to the conditions attached 10
the request, but the library managers
have intimated that they do not be-
lieYe they win have any trouble IN
raising the 100000. II Il possible
'nat campaign will be conducted to
raise the amount.
