lowed in the room during the day
and timed machine might have been
left without attracting attention.
Authorities Immediately began an
investigation. The doors of the Cap
itol were closed Immediately after the
explosion and no one was permitted
to enter while the investigation was
under way
Windows Blown Out.
The windows in the reception room
were blown out, an immense plate
glass mirror had been demolished and
part of the ceiling and walls were
torn down. The frescoed walls were
broken; Chandeliers sent crashing to
the floor, and splintered woodwork
heaped together all over the room.
The explosion was heard for several
blocks.
Persons who reached the capitol
soon after the explosion occurred said
they noticed the odor of burned pow
der which persisted for some time.
Elliott Woods, superintendent of the
Capitol building, Sergeantat-arms
Higgins, of the Senate, and the head
of the Capitol police, who directed the
inquiry, refuse& to give any theory Of
the cause of the explosion until the
Investigation was completed. Superin-
tendent Woods said that if the explo-
sion had been caused by bomb, it
was placed there, in his belief, by
some crank who wanted to create a
sensation.

Middletown Form a Cow Testing
Association Assisted by College
The dairymen in the southern part
Of New Castle county. between Smyr-
ma and Middletown, have taken q step
in the right direction by forming a
cow-testing association, which has
just been organized through help
from the Delaware College at New
ark. 1t is expected that the work
Of having the records kept will be be-
gun by the first of December. AL
though Delaware is the last of the
eastern states to form an organization
Of this kin5. this is the second as
sociation in the state. One already
having been in active operation above
Wilmington for six weeks. II the
dairymen in these associations secure
the results that have been gotten in
other places. Delaware should soon
take her rank as one of the leading
eastern dairy states for her size. In
one Maryland association the mem
bers have incEeasd their annual pro-
ductiOn in four years 1, ITO pounds Of
milk per COW. and another in this same
state 1000 pounds in three years.
In some of the older associations the
members have taken up cooperative
feed buying and the buying Of good
bulls in the same way. It is quite
possible that this will be taken up by
the members of the association cen
tering around Middletown. Each
month a list Of the cows will be pub
lished. The honor cows will comprise
cows producing during the month
either 1000 pounds of milk or &C
pounds of butterfat. When it is re.
membered that the average Delaeare

milk and about 120 pounds of butter.

Big Crowd, Many From Smyrna At
tended the Re-Dedication Sunday.
Fine Sermon by Rev. WE .GunbY
Several carloads from Smyrna and
a goodlv attendance from surrounding
country attended the re-opening Of
old Raymond's NJ. f. Church, Sunday
afternoon. 1t was an ideal day and
an auspicious occasion for those who
had labored so hard in anticipation Of
this event. The church, looking
sphinx and spank in it is new dress of
paint and interior furnishings. was
made even more attractive by the
autumn floral decorations arranged in
and about the pulpit and windows.
The Wesley Church Choir Of Dover
furnished the music and its able
pastor. Rev w. E. Gunby had charge
of the serS ices. The sermon Of Mr..
Gunby alone was well worth the
efforts Of the day. In an able and
scholarly sermon he brought the
message home to the peonle and
later appealed to the congregation in
raising collection and subscription
of nearly $500 to help defray the
expense of rebuilding the old church.
Raymond's Church hes long been
place of worship and landmark en-
the road between Smyrna and Leipsic.
II was founded in 1871. Last
March through some mysterious rgin.
the church was destroyed by fire which
left nothing but a portion Of the
brick walls standing. Members and
friends of this old church got busy
and rebuilt the church and return
ished the interior more inviting than
ever. The church is at present with
out pastor, bnt in planning the
re-dedication services District Su-
perintendent r. K. Stephenson
helped the local committee in arrang-
ing the delightful afternoon that was
had last Sunday. Raymond's Church,
small in membership but enthusiastic
in endeavors. will continue to keep
this church alive and ask the CO.
operation of all Methodists of the
vicinity.

Quail and Rabbit Were Never Reported
to be More Plentiful Than Now
Gunners nf this vicinity are
anxiously awaiting the opening Of the
quail and rabbit season. now only a
few days off. and from all indications
the gurne-s will find that game IS
plentiful. Farmers throughout Kent
county state that quail are more
plentiful this year than for many
years past. The bunnies are also
numerous, and persons driving auto
mobiles or teams along the country
roads, frequently see q rabbit run
across the road ahead of the machine.
The fact that the last Legislature
abolished the law requiring all gun
ners TO pay a state license Of 81. so
will also serve to make conditions
better for gunners. as prior 70 the
replacing of this law many farmers.
who believed il unjust. refused to
allow cunning on their property.
and many good hunting grounds in
Kent and Sussex counties were cover
ed with signs prohibiting cunning.
Many Of the farms upon which
cunning has been prohibited for the
