Two Killed By Fast Train

Orville G. Gooden, aged 80 years, a
we'll known real estate dealer of Will
mington, was instantly killed and his
wife so seriously injured that she died
soon afterward, when a southbound
Delaware Division train crashed into
their auto at State Road crossing, on
Tuesday evening. Mrs. Gooden was
driving the machine and the approach
ing train was obstructed from view by
buildings and hedges and the auto
was sent directly in the path of the
onrushing locomotive. The auto was
hurled 80 feet and Mr.. and Mrs
Gooden fell into the gutter alongside
of the tracks. James McCallister, a
store-keeper at State Road, was an
eye witness to the accident. He said
he heard the approaching train, but
thought the car would clear the cross
ing ahead of it. AS soon as he saw
what had happened he hurriedly ran
out his own car and took Mrs. Gooden
to the Delaware Hospital, where she
died shortly afterward.

ROBERT F. DUER
FOR CONGRESS

No candidate, on the Republican
side, having stood for the Congress
sional nomination in this District, it
devolved upon the members of the
various State Central Committees of
the Eastern Shore counties to name
candidate, or leave the party with
out any. After much canvassing Of
the situation, Mr.. Robert F. Duer, an
attorney in Princess .snne, consented
to accept the nomination and make
the race. Thereupon the State Cen
trail Committeeman met in Easton on
Friday of last week and formally
nominated Mr.. Duer, who accepted in
vigorous keynote speech wherein he
set forth his position on the tariff and
other issues and promised an ener-
getic campaign. He said Jesse n.
Price, his Democratic opponent, laid
great stress upon being elected upon
the public record he had made. He
said he was as much interested in
making Mr.. Prices record known as
was Senator Price, and would assist
him in doing so. He declared it was
his intention during the campaign to
bring Senator Prices record before
the voters of the district and let them
decide whether he was worthy of their
support.
Mr.. Duer is a lawyer, with an ex-
tensive practice, at Princess Anne. He
is 43 years old and is son of the late
E. F. Duer. His brother, who was a
merchant in Princess Anne, at one
time represented Somerset county in
the House of Delegates and for many
years was postmaster of Princess
Anne. The elder Duer spent the lat
ter years of his life in Baltimore city,
dying there about fourteen years ago.
His widow died there last winter.
During the administration of the
late Governor Lloyd Lowndes Mr..
Duer, the congressional candidate, was
superintendent of schools in Somerset
county. During President Taft's ad-
ministration he was postmaster at
Princess Anne. Several years ago he
was a candidate for States attorney
for Somerset county, but was defeat
ed. He read law in the office of the
late Congressman Robert F. Brattan,
Tor whom he was named.

State Secures M. A. e.

The State of Maryland has at last
secured full title to the Maryland Ag-
ricultural College. Heretofore the
State has owned only one-half of the
property, the other half being owned
by private stock holders, with the
State holding a mortgage on this lat
ter half. The mortgage was foreclosed
this week and State Treasurer Vandi-
yer, representing the State, purchased
the mortgaged halt at puDiic sale for
$4,000, thus giving the State soc
proprietorship. The Legislature of
1912 appropriated $4,000 for the pur-
poses above and the failure of the
committee appointed to act therein
and secure for the State full title to
the property was one of the main
causes why the Legislature of 1914
declined to make any large appro-
priation for buildings and mainten-
ance to the College.
