IT Is an object lesson for all to con-
slider, when a horde of riotous people
come from another community to carouse
and disturb the public peace, as they have
been in the habit of doing at Middletown,
jn New Castle County, for years past. Both
white and black negroes. and the alco-
holic men of equally low sensibilities.
come from Maryland and the lower coun-
ties of Delaware, on railroad trains, in
automobiles and other methods of travel,
and stop at Middletown where two sa-
ICONS cater to their wan IS, and where
they become wild from the effects of
liquor. This resulted in the shooting
and cutting of officers last Saturday
night, and a general difiance of the
laws of one of the prettiest towns in
upper Delaware Whose fault is it
that these conditions exist? The laws
under which the people are governed I
are responsible for this crime and
rampant trampling Of all decency un- I
der foot. The saloons sell the liquor
regardless of the needs of the people,
and instead of personal liberty, it is
personal license to create a situation
which degrades the entire community,
and is a disgrace to the state. 1t is
plain that the people of New Castle
county will have to join with the low
er counties to escape those disgrace
ful conditions, and have local option
or prohibition of the sale of rum.

A REFEREE TRIAL

An interesting law suit occurred at
the Office of Justice of the Peace
HendricksOn last Friday afternoon
when the case wherein Frank Glen
daniel of Lincoln, brought suit against
the Laurel Canning Company of Laur-
el, to recover money which he claim
ed was due him for a carload of to-
matOes which he shipped that con-
cern in September. The sum sought
amounted to $73.S6, this being the
cost of the carload of tomatoes less
the freight. The tomatoes were ship
ped, according to witnesses from
Nassau, Sussex County, on September
Sth, and arrived in Laurel the follow
ing day. Witnesses for Clendaniel
stated that when the vegetables left
the shipping point they were in good
condition, but the witnesses produced
by the packing company stated that
upon arrival at their destination they
were rotten and soft. They further
stated that it required six baskets of
the tomatoes to fill one bucket when
they arrived One witness for the
packing company acknowledged on
the stand, it is said, that some of the
tomatoes were used.
When the case came before Esquire
HendricksOn, the lawyer for the de-
fense, James Tunnel, asked that the
evidence be heard before referees. !
The justice readily agreed to this, and
Arthur Derrickson. A! E. Scott and H.
c. Boyce were secured. Clendaniel
was represented by Daniel Layton,
Esq After hearing all of the evidence
in the case, the referees brought in
a verdict of $73.86 in favor of Glen
daniel. Mr. Tunnel, for the defendant
company, Immediately notified the |
court that an appeal would be taken |
and the case carried to Georgetown |
for trial.

THANKED BY KING

Mrs. George Hynson is again solic-
iting funds to be used for Belgian re-
lief. The following is a personal let
ter of thanks to the many who have
contributed for this purpose during
the past year.
Those contributing to the aid of Bel
gian refugees, soldiers and orphans,
were thanked by King Albert in let
ter written on his behalf by his sister,
Princess Henrietta, Duchess of Ven
dome, and just received by Mrs. Chas.
F. Judson, of 1905 Spruce street. who
for the past year has been collecting
funds for Belgian war sufferers, av-
eraging $500 a month.
The letter, written from a place in
France, follows:
Dear Mrs. udsOn:-The King, my
brother, is deeply grateful for the gen.
erOsity with which you have, for a
whole year, sent every month nearly
$500 to our poor Belgians, giving COM
fort to refugees, soldiers, orphans and
to the distressed civil population of
the front. He desires me to forward
his very sincere thanks, and the ex-
preston of all his warmest gratitude
to all the charitable dOners. May
also join my most sincere and heart
felt thanks? The miseries and suffer-
ings continue to be distressing, and
the approach of winter makes us all |
quite unhappy at the idea of the cold |
and privations it will bring, so that |
our greatest desire would be that the |
fund should continue, if possible, for |
money always is more needed, and |
now more difficult to find.
Your affectionate and grateful
HENRIETTA.
of Vendome, Princess of Bel
gium.
The money collected and forwarded
by Mrs. Judson was used for the re-
lief of destitute Belgians by King AL
bert personally.

ief in Belgium" asking for clothing
or the sufferers in Belgium and in
northern France. s
While they are deeply grateful for '
III the second hand clothing sent last I
ear. they ask especially for new ma i
erials that employment be given to
heir own women, and garments made G
most suitable to their needs. Ii
Some Of the articles asked for are /
lankets, new knitting yarns, and also n
ieces of outing flannel, canton fan
el and dress goods. shawls, jerseys.
APPS and gloves, underwear and wool "
en- stockings, of all sizes. eiderdOwn a

Will any one having materials to
i've, or any article clean and warm, C,
] good condition, although it may be n
sed and partly worn, send the same /,
} Mrs. Hynson and help fill a box to n,
end away during the coming week.

'ibutions during the past week to n

Q why should reckless men have the
right to handle automobiles ? Such men
would be better at the wash-tub, and
further, they could be used to save the
price of two days washing. We trust

THE re-opening of the basket ball sea
son in Milford on Thanksgiving night in
Armory Hall is fine thing for the young
women and men OF Milford. It affords a
fine source for exercises and clean sport,
which will do much towards building up
a robust set of citizens who will open life
with their wits quickened, and active
muscles, which must have beneficial re-
suits upon the future social and business
affairs of any community.

To my Friends of Adair Co.;

To my Friends of Adair Co.;
l have been away from home
for long time and have not seen
your paper, but learn through
friends that you have had wealth
er considerably the same as we
have had here. The thermome-
ter registered as low as % degrees
below zero. We are now having
rain which is very agreeable, as
We are said to be fifty two inches
short in rainfall, and we are told
lots of rain is the only radiance
of the chinch bug for another
farming season, we have the past
three years of drouth.
Illinois is a beautiful country,
but do not see much of its pleas
ure, as my health is bad. The
writer with a number of other
Kentucky people spent a most de-
lightful day at the home of Mr..
Steve Word, Feb. IA. The deli
licious birthday dinner was finish
ed with a crate of oranges and a
large turkey presented by the
landlord and mis- manager.
One, Jim w. Baker, a native of
Glasgow, KY. was arrested here
last week, on a warrant from
Springfield ILL.,, accusing him of
selling a carload OF corn which
did not belong to him. In order
to keep from going to Jail, while
awaiting the coming of a sheriff
from Springfield, he proposed to
pay for a guard. He was then
placed in care of Eugene Wooten,
who took the prisoner to his own
