among the many pitiful cases of
expatriated Belgian refugees,
shattered and broken by the ex-
perience of seeing their country
become a battlefield.
After working six weeks, Miss
Taylor suffered an infection of a
thumb which necessitated ampu-
tation of the member. She then
went to the American Woman's
War Hospital at Paignton, South
Devon, working there among the
sick and wounded soldiers. When
the Red Cross nurses were recall
ed last September, Miss Taylor
decided to stay and continue the
work. This step, born of her de-
sire to continue work at all per-
sOnal cost, led to her final illness.
She returned to America in De-
cember, and after spending the
Christmas holidays with rela-
tives in Wilmington, went to her
hospital at Washington.
Funeral services in charge of
j. F. McFaull of the Hockessin M.
e. Church, of which the deceased
is member were held in Will

Miss Taylor was a sister of for

former Comptroller P h i | e m m a

Charter Mills Big Grist

The year closing January 10
showed a total of 1926 charters
issued to corporations at Dover,
an increase of upwards of 200 over
the previous years record. The
total of authorized capital ex-
ceeded S1,000,O00,00O and the
States revenue derived from the
h arters totalled S117,388. 90
against $78,256.57 for the pre-
vious year. Many of the charters
issued last year, especially those
with the largest capital, were
granted to corporations formed to
manufacture munitions and other
war supplies which included not
only home concerns but others
also in Cuba, Panama and other
countries in South America.
Uncle Sam also profited from the
growth of Delaware charters from
the sale of revenue stamps re-
quired to be affixed thereto.

"Not, eh? Well, we have more

While it was taking a fleet OF
100 fast ships six months TO

We are the only great nation

First Red Cross Nurse Dies

The body of Miss Reba J. Tay-
lor, the first American nurse to
answer the call for Red Cross
volunteers to go to Europe at the
outbreak of the European War,
was brought to her old home in
Delaware for interment on Mon
day. Miss Taylor, formerly of
Hockessin, won great distinction
by her promptness and also by her
splendid, faithful work among
victims of the battlefield. Her
coffin, by authorization of the
Red Cross, was draped with the
American and Red Cross flags,
an honor never before accorded a
nurse, it is believed.
Miss Taylor died Saturday at
the Homeopathic Hospital, Wash
ington, where, in 1898, she grad
uated as nurse. Death was due
to illness contracted in England,
and was hastened by overwork in
English h hospitals. She went
abroad with the first party of
Red Cross nurses in 1914 and
proceeded to the Royal Naval Hos
pital near London, there working

Delaware will hav efour dual
meets and they will probably be
Gettysburg and Drexel here and
Muhlenburg and the City College
of New York away, but the exact
dates have not been fixed. 1t had
been practically agreed with
Drexel for the track team of that
institution to meet Delaware here
on Saturday, May 18th, which
will be the day of the annual In
ter-Scholastic meet but an effort
will be made to arrange another
date if possible with Drexel.
1t has been the custom for sew
eral years to hold the Inter-class
field and track meet during Com
mencement week. Dean E. Laur-
ence Smith, a member of the
Council suggested that some
other date be fixed for this event.
He explained that because of ex-
aminations and the fact of the
Seniors preparing to leave the
meet has been more or less of
farce at Commencement and
thought some other time should
be arranged for it. Other men,
bers of the Council were of the
same opinion, so that it is likely
that the Interclass meet will be
held this year in conjunction with
the Inter-Scholastic meet, in case
another date can be agreed on
with DreXel.
At the suggestion of Coach Nc
Avoy the Council decidtd to enter
Crockett, who holds the local COL
lege record for both the low and
high hurdles and Marshall, who
holds the record for the 22O yard
dash and high jump, in the annual
indoor meet to be held in the
Fifth Regiment Armory, Balti-
more, February 18th, under the
auspices of Johns Hopkins Uni
versity. Many colleges from the
! SOutn ana also some from the
north will have entries in this
meet. In case the Delaware men
should place in the events at Bal
timore they will also be entered in
the indoor meets to be held in
Washington, February 10 and
March A, by George Washington
University and Georgetown Uni
versity.
Numerals were awarded the
winners of events in the annual
Freshman-Sophomore indoor meet
as follows: Sophomores, Crockett
and A. O'Daniel; Freshmen, Wei
din, L. PLAN, M. PLAN, Fitzpat-
rick and Marconnetti.
The discussion of arrangements
for the Inter-Scholastic meet and
the baseball schedule were made

COURSE CHANGED

work required for graduation.
"The two-year course in Agri-
culture which has been given for
several years to students who were
not fitted to enter a college course
leading to degree, will not be
given after the present collegiate
year. Those students now present
in College, enrolled in this work,
will of course be allowed to finish
their two years of practical Agri-
cultural study, during the colleg-
late year 1867, but no students
will be admitted for the two years
course in the fall of 1916. To
supplant the two years course,
special courses in Agriculture, not
leading to degree, may be taken
by students who, for various rea-
sons, are unable to pursue the
four years course. In order to
become a special student, one
must have had at least one year of
experience on farm, present ten
of the units required for entrance
to the four-years' course and be at
least nineteen years of age. Any
applicant for special work of this
kind must satisfy the faculty of
his ability to do the work assign
ed and must give the assurance of
a sincere desire to avail himself of
the opportunities offered by this
department of the college.
Special students do not follow
a prescribed program or course of
study, but are at liberty to elect
such studies as they are prepared
to take, subject to the approval of
the Dean of Agriculture. They
will be required to take all exam
nations and maintain a satisfac-
tory standard of scholarship in
order to hold their place in the
College,"

LUsITANIA COMMUNICATION
 MoMENTARILY EXPECTED
Might Contain Proposals More Ac-
 eeptabIe Than Previous Notes.

Washington, Una. 31-A further communication from Germany in the Lusitania case is momentarily ex- pected by state department officials, it became known tonight, but up to a late hour 1t had not been received. It was understood the new represent character of recent stages of the ne- gotiations and might contain a new set of proposals in lieu of those re- jected a few days ago by the United States.
 Secretary Lansing said today he had no confirmation of news despatcheS saying Germany's final answer was on it's way to the United States and that the action of the submarine command CTS is not disapproved and Germany vii make no further concessions.
 Count Won Bernstorff, the German ambassador, is expected to return to Washington tomorrow from New York but department officials have not been advised whether he had any new word from his government. He has no appointment to see Secretary Lansing.
 The negotiations, it was said to- night, were in precisely the same stat us as they were a week ago. The Berlin foreign office still has before it for approval proposal for settlement, drafted bS Count Won Bernstorff, which has embodied in it all the de- mands of the United States and a feel ing of optimism prevails both in of fficial and Teutonic diplomatic circles.

An Easy Way to
 Increase Weight
Good Advice for Thin Folks

The trouble with most thin folks who wish to gain weight is that they insist on drugging their stomachS or stuffing it with greasy foods; rubbing on use less flesh creams, or following some foolish physical culture stunt, while the real cause of thinness goes untouched. You cannot get fat until your digestive tract assimilates the food you eat
 There is a preparation known to re- liable druggists almost everywh ere which seemingly embodies the missing g elements needed by the digestive or- gans to help them convert food into rich, fat-laden blood. This modern treatment is called Sargol and has been termed the greatest of fiesh-builders. constructive powers to coax the stom- ach, and intestines to literally soak up the fattening elements of your food and pass them into the blood, where they are carried to the starved, brok en- down cells and tissues of your body. You can readily picture what result this amazing transformation should cheeks fill out, hollows about neck, shoulders and bust disappear and from 10 to 20 pounds of solid. healthy flesh is added to the body. SargoI is abso- lutely harmless, inexpensive, efficient. Lee & Osgood, Norwich, Chesebro's s Drug Store, Willimantic, and other leading druggists of this vicinity have It and will refund your money if you gre not satisfied. as per the guarantee round In every package.
 NOTE: Sargol is recomm ended only as a flesh builder and while excellent results in cases Of nervous indigestion etc: have been reported, care should be talked about using it unless gain of weight is desired.

SHIP PURCHASE BILL
 INTRODUCED IN HOUSE.
Referred to Merchant Marine Commit
 tee for Hearings.

Washington, Jan. 31.-The govern ment ship purchase bill. framed after extended conferences between. admin istration leaders in congress and other high officials, was introduced in the house today by Representative Alex ander and was referred to the mer- chant marine committee, of which he is chairman. Hearings will begin soon with a view of expediting considera- tion of the measure as much as pos sible.
 The house is expected to pass the bill, although, as at the last session, despite changes made to satisfy demo- cratic senators, strong opposition Is anticipated in the senate. Leaders, however, declare they are confident that even if democrats who helped vote down the bill year ago still opposed it, passage would be assured by the support of progressive republicans and three new democratic members.
 It was said tonight that at least six of the seven democrats who voted against the measure last year still were unyielding in their opposition be- cause of the provision which gives the government power to operate ship lines in times of peace if satisfactory leases to private operators cannot be nego- tiated. These six are Clark, Bankhead, Hitchcock, Hardwick, OGorman and Vardaman. The three new senators expected to vote favorably are Beck ham, Kentucky; Husting, Wisconsin, and Johnson, South Dakota.

MURpERoUsLY ATTACKED
 WHILE REPAIRING AUTO.
Two Persons Killed on Highway Be-
 tween Buffalo and Orchard Park, N. Y.

Buffalo. N. r.. Jan. 3f-Under orders from District Attorney Wesley c. Dudley deputy sheriff was placed on guard tonight at the home of John Edward Teiper. one of the two sur ty of four which was murderously at tackled on the highway between Buff falo and Orchard Park early today.
 The victims of the tragedy were his mother Mrs. Agnes M.. Teiper, a widow ST years old, his brother Frederick C.. 26 years old. an engineer on structural steel work, who were killed outright and Miss Grace J. Teiper, a sister, whose skull was fractured in five places and who is in a dying condi- tion. John Edward Teiper has a se- were confusion on the forehead.
 The guard was placed on Teiper's home tonight after he had made a sworn statement to MT. Dudley in which he repeated a story told to the sheriff earlier in the day to the eff feet that the murderous attack was made by a man, apparently a negro, while he and his brother were attempt ing to repair his automobile, which had stalled on the highway early last ev- ening.
 In his sworn statement MT. Teiper said that he had invited his mother, sister and brother to visit him at his Orchard Park home last evening. He started in toward Buffalo late in the afternoon, he said. when his automo- bile stalled. He abandoned it - walked to the city to arrange for re- pairs.
 At the city line. MT. Teiper said, he met his relatives who were in an au- tomobile and decided to go back to his home at Orchard Park with them in- tending to arrange for the repairs of his own machine later on.
 About midnight when his mOth- CT, sister and brother were ready to return to the city, Teiper said, he de- cided to go with them, repair his stranded machine and return home in it.
 Teiper said he had the hood of the stranded automobile up and was ex- anining the engine when he heard a warning cry from his brother. He turned to find a strange man in the circle of light made by the headlight of the other machine and moment later he. was knocked unconscious by a blow on the head. When he regain ed his senses, he said he found his mother, sister and brother apparently dead and he started toward the near est farmhouse to summon help. He thinks he lost consciousness again for the next thing he remembers was the arrival of the police.

Clear, Peachy Skin Awaits Anyone Who
 Drinks Hot Water
Says an inside bath, before break fast helps us look and feel
 clean, sweet, fresh.

Sparkling and vivacious = merry, bright, alert-a good, clear skin and g. natural, rosy, healthy complexion are assured only by pure blood. If only every man and woman could be induced to adopt the morning inside bath, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of the thousands of sickly, anaemic-looking men, women and girls, with pasty or muddy complexions; instead of the multi : tudes of nerve wrecks," ''rundowns, 2 brain flags" and pessimists: we should see virile, optimistic throng of rosy checked people everywhere.
 An inside bath is had by drinking each morning, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a tea spoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kid neys and ten yards of bowels the pre- vious days indigestible waste, sour fermentations and poisons, thus cleansing, sweetening and freshening the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach.
 Those subject to sick headache, bil- iousness, nasty breath, rheumatism. colds; and particularly those who have pallid, sallow complexion and who are constipated very often, are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store which will cost but a trifle, but is sufficient to demonstrate the quick and remark able change in both health and appear ance, awaiting those who practice in- ternal sanitation. We must remem- Der that inside cleanliness is more inn portant than outside, because the skin does not absorb impurities to con taminate the blood while the pores in the thirty feet of bowels do.

A resumption of the Zeppelin raids on London and the east coast of Eng land was expected by the British au- thorities and on January 18th a spe- cial warning was sent out by the po- lice, which after referring to the in- crease in the offensive protection against hostile aircraft recently pro- vided in the metropolitan district, ad- vised the public on the occasion of air raids to take to cover.
 The latest raids on England by Ger man aircraft occurred on January 2S and 24, when hostile aeroplanes drop Kent, killing or wounding few per sons and an aeroplane attacked the station, barracks and docks at Dover
 Only recently the defense of Lon don from air attacks has been placed in the hands of the war office pre- viously the admiralty had charge of this matter. Both these departments, however, have been cooperating har moniously.
 Prior to January there was an in terval of several months during which England was immune from air attacks. From June 15 until October 13 there the east coast of England, in which 121 persons were reported killed and SIS injured.
 After the Zeppelin raids on Paris Saturday and Sunday nights the view was expressed by the French author tiles that these attacks were doubtless merely a prelude to a more extensive movment by German aircraft and the fact that six or seven machines have taken part in the new raid on Eng land would indicate g. well-considered
