FAMILY REUNION

Mr.. and Mrs. Harry X. Jefferson
were host and hostess of a~delightful
family reunion which took place at
their new home on April End The
affair was to have taken place on the
5th of March. but owing to the fact
that the roads were in an almost i'm
passable condition, it was postponed
until this later date All the brothers
with their families assembled at Rey-
nolds church, where they first had
the pleasure of hearing an interest
ing sermon by their pastor and the
Steward announce the good news that
the affairs of the church were settled
in full for the conference year. From
there they went to the new home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Jefferson where they
found a table spread with an abun-
dance of good food to which full JUS
tice was rendered. The remainder of
the day was happily spent in pleasant
and music and the time
was all too short when they must all
depart for their several homes.

HONORS CLUB MEMBERS
BY A BIRTHDAY BANQUET

The members of the Milford Club
were delightfully."- entertained at the
New Windsor Hotel last Saturday ev-
ening by Robert p. Davis, Esq, the af-
fair being given in honor of his fiftieth
birthday anniversary. The members
met at the Club Rooms in the Masonic
Building at $3.50 o'clock and marched
to the hotel where the banquet was
served. A fine menu was served, after
which a number of gentlemen were
called upon for speeches, Mr. Davis,
seated at the head of the table, acting
as toastmaster Now that Mr. Davis
has opened the way, it is likely that
a movement will be started by some
of the members to have a banquet at
least once a year. At the close of the
affair on Saturday night, Mr. Davis
invited the members to be his guests
in 1866, the occasion Of his one hun
dredth anniversary.

ARRESTS MADE IN THE
JOSEPH ASSAULT CASE

State Detective Frederick B. Muir
ply, assisted by Chief of Police Hurd
of Dover, went to Frederica last
Thursday afternoon where three ar
rests were made in connection with
the murderous assault on Ira W. JOS
eph, a resident of that town, but form
erly of Milford All three of the pris-
oners were charged with either COM
mitting, aiding or abetting the as
sault on Joseph, which was one of the
most brutal to come before the atten-
tion of the authorities in months.
Those arrested are Louder Belts,
Frank Fisher and Wellington P. Hall,
all residents of Frederick. The men
were taken before Magistrate Wood,
of Dover, who held Betts and Fisher
without baif to await the result of
JOseph's injuries. and they were com
mitted to Jail Hall was held in bail,
ana released on his own recOgnizance.
The people of Frederica are much
agitated by the assault, the first of
the kind to happen in that quiet vii
lage in years. Many sensational de-
velopments are limited at by the resi-
dents when the case comes up for trial
