MORNING FIRE AMONG ECC
Crates proves STUBBORN

Firemen Of the Washington and
Delaware Fire Companies battled for
nearly half an hour this morning
with fire in the cellar Of the build
ing No. $40 King street occupied by
Samuel J. Anderson. The cellar was
filled with egg crates and a number %
these were destroyed with several
dozens Of eggs. While the fire was
in progress the owner Of the build
ing arrived and ordered that all of
the crates be removed.
The blaze started in a pile Of rub
bish under a porch in the rear yard
and the flames spread to the cellar.
The independence First Company
responded to a still alarm Of fire about
10 o'clock this morning, when a chim-
ney ignited at the home Of Joseph
Denna, No. 1882 Claymont street. The
damage was slight.

erty Fire Company, wnen a rubbish

WILMINGTON SALOONS WILL
Be OPEN CHRISTMAS DAY

Notwithstanding the fact that there
is movement under way in Fhila-
delphia by the Retail Liquor Dealers
Association to close the saloons Of
that city on Christmas Day, the Viii
mington Retail Liquor Dealers Asso-
cation is not showing any interest in
the question. The meeting for the
month of December has been held and
such a question was not even brought
up; to consider it at this time would
require the calling of a special meet
ing of the association which action
the members do not seem inclined
to take. President James A. Kane
OF the local association. said this
morning tlat he did not think the
local retail dealers desired any more
holidays than they already have to
observe.
In Philadelphia those who favor
closing of the saloons on Christmas
Day argue on the advisability from
several viewpoints
Paramount among these arguments
is the one that the saloonkeeper aud
his employees desire to remain home
with their families during the day. An
other reason advanced for closing is
! that of all the days in the year Christ
mas is the most Improbable from a
commercial viewpoint. Il is declared
by many of the liquor dealers that
/ less business is transacted on Christ
mas day than on amy other day OF
which the saloons are open.
In addition to these arguments the
advocates of Christmas closing assert
that their business is not improved
by the many celebrants of Christmas
who celebrate too freely.

Was Victim Of PLOT

NEW YORK. Dec. 10.-Robert s.
waddell. developer Of high explosives.
was killed six months ago in an eN-
plosion which destroyed the works Of
the United States Safety Powder
Company. near Louisville He was
the victim OF munitions plot, ac-
cording to disclosures made today
The killing came ON the eve OF a
successful proof" of a new high cN-
plosive. for which he had obtained a
contract from an English syndicate,
representing the allies.
-Four secret formulas for Waddells
discovery were saved. They are i'm
possession OF his son, William C.
Waddell, who left his studies at An
napolis to carry on the work. And the
efforts OF this young expert to protect
and perfect the discovery led TO re-
ports Of amazing espionage and an
noyance.
Advisers of young Waddell today
said he had arrived safely i'm Canada
and will direct a munitions factory
for the production Of the new ex-
plosive.
The sudden departure OF young
Waddell lrom Perth Annoy was iol-
lowed by marvellous stories. He was
harassed, according to the reports, by
agents of a foreign nation, who OF
fered fabulous sums to prevent the
delivery of the formulas to the Allies
A New York business man, who
knew the elder Waddell and his sor
for years. today said:
Robert S. Waddell recently per.
fected an explosive which attracted
the attention of the warning nations
He obtained a contract and hurried tC
his Louisville factory. The proof
was to be made before officers OF the
Allies at Kitatinny, n. j.
THE factory was blown up while
Waddell was there. He was KILLED
But facts show the explosion was the
result OF a plot"

GO TO SUNDAY SCHOOL DAY

We do not believe there Is man
or woman i'm the city of Lakeland
who does not long for more educa-
ton than he or she has, and there Is
probably more serious regret among
the men and women of today over
lost opportunities to avail them
selves of the necessary qualifications
for life than any dozen other things
that one could imagine.
There Is not considerate father
or mother in the city who does not
want their children to be more use
full than they themselves have been,
and for this reason there is nothing
that brings so much real joy to the
heart as to see their son or daugh-
ter building firm foundation for a
real man or woman. Now the ques'
tion, the vital question, the rea
question is, where can the material
for this foundation be found?
The following seems to the writer
to be a sensible view of this inter
esting question. The man or WON
an of today who has no qualification
is in almost every case failure
therefore we must insist on educa
tion; but we have all seen manN
things dressed up in mems and WON
ems clothes with the literary edu-
cation that some good man or woman
| should have. 1T is the opinion oi
the writer that you can give one al
the special training that he coul6
get and he will utterly fail II a.
the same time he has not beer
taught to be real man.
The only book on the face of th'
earth that pretends to teach on'
how to be a real man or woman 4
the Bible and without knowledg'
of which 1t is impossible for a hu
man to be what his Creator expect
him to be.
Out of our splendid citizenship ha

DOES LAW NOT AFFECT
SALOON INSURANCE IN JAX

jacksonville, Sept. 2S-Fire in
surance companies in Tampa anu
other Florida cities, it is understood,
are giving instructions to their
agents to cancel their policies on all
retail saloons and forbidding the
writing of any more insurance on
such hazards.
The action taken is result OF the
Davis package law, which VIII go
into effect after September 80, which
will mean that many saloons will go
out of business after that date. Un-
derwriters of the Southern cities
state that they are following the
plans adapted in Georgia, Alabama
and other States.
In the past, where prohibition has
gone into effect, it is said that fires
have occurred among saloons ire
uuently, resulting in large losses tc
the companies carryinf insurance on
such places
The companies in Tampa which
have issued the above orders state
that the plan is general in every
ciey in the State where they operate
AS far as can be learned no such
prders have been given out in jack
sonville. Certain local companies
have notified thehead ofiicersof the
Davis law taking effect on October
/ but until this time the companies
have failed to receive any instruc'
tions as to extra hazards or change
in the polisies.
II is believed by c. I. Paxon' rep
resenting one of the largest hre In
surance companies operating II
Jacksonville that no changes Will D.
made in regard to policies on sa
looms and that as far as he can leari
his company will continue to writ
