Dover Station Robbed

Railroad officers and State De-
tective Murphy are puzzled over a
robbing at the Dover railroad
station which occurred between 8
and $50 o'clock on Sunday even
ing, June 25, during the temper
airy absence of the night tele-
graph operator. The thief broke
into the ticket office and took the
contents of the cash drawer. The
station was lighted in front and
rear and the ticket Office also.
The three station doors were not
locked and the windows were I'M
fastened and number of per-
sons were about the station. Miss
Anna Watson, who lives about so
yards from the station, saw a
man jump from a window of the
ticket office and walk off with an
other party. A man who had
been lettering about the station
was picked up as suspect. A col
ored man from Smyrna said he
had been talking with the suspect
shortly before the robbing oc-

Delaware Regiment Plea
and Plan for Max
it Possible

1t is not asking too much that
Delaware have complete regi-
ment in the field by the time the
troops move to Mexico. Colonel
Harlan Cause in letter printed
in another column, advances
many reasons why recruits should
be obtained sufficient to make a
complete regiment. If the troops
go as two battalions they are at
tached to some other regiment
and the identity of Delaware is
lost. In times of emergency,
when the country calls for the
services of its citizens, Delaware,
the first state in the Union,
should at least be represented by
a regiment.
According to reports at the
armory yesterday was a slow day
for recruiting and there is a
feeling that young men who have
thoughts of enlisting are holding
off until the President calls for
volunteers. The opportunity is
now open, however, for any one
to enlist with the militia. Those
doing so would be serving a dou-
BILE purpose. They would be help
ng to insure a complete regiment
for the state and at the same time
they would have the satisfaction
of knowing that they had offered
their services to the cause of
their country.

Teaching the Gang

Walking along a railroad track
one Saturday afternoon we dis
covered stone hut, in which
were two factory boys playing
cards and taking turns" on a
pipe, says The Christian Herald.
They were the leaders of a gang,
and the others had been sent out
ito swipe tin to cover the roof"
At last we had found the head
quarters of the terrors of the
town. Perhaps we should have
had them arrested, but we didn't.
Instead of a policeman we sent a
young college graduate who liked
boys and who believed that every
boy could be reached if one could
only touch the hidden spring. He
touched. He got acquainted, be-
came their friend, then their lead
err, and in six months the gang be-
came boy scout patrol-a con-
structive instead of a destructive
force in the community. Was it
worth while?
| shall never forget when Jack
Hardy started with his club at
University Settlement, in New
York. There were six typical
East Side boys of II and it looked
like hopeless job. Jack was
nervous himself, for he did not
have much experience to help
him. But he had the determine
ton, patience, tact and spirit of
service and he made good" Ath-
letics, hikes, indoor games gradu-
ally took the place of saloons,
girls and pool rooms. Cheap
shows and dirty stories were sue
ceeded by good entertainments
and CLUB debates"
In one year the club grew to 20,
and Jack was the quiet master of
the situation. He has stuck" to
the club for three years. Several
of his "boys" have gone to school
or college, and the others now
hold good positions. When l
frankly asked one of them how
Jack did it, he replied, well,
don't know, exactly. He never
preached much. He just showed
us something better and then
talked to us straight. When we

GOING AFTER OIL

The Rifle-DeBeque Oil and Gas COM
pany last Wednesday resumed opera
tions after short shutdown occasioned
by broken stem. When the tools
were lowered and work started Manager
ekssler was surprised to find oil in the
bottom of the hole which is only 400
feet deep. There is slight oil sand at
this depth, but it was not expected to
find oil in such quantities. The mem-
bers of the company are very highly
pleased at this splendid showing and
now believe that oil will be found in
paying quantities at much less depth
than was first expected.
