Facts About the Eve.

There are any number of different
nerves and muscles which must work
in harmony, or vision will be defective.
The great switchboard controlling all
these motions must act Immediately,
making the proper connections between
the brain which is calling for a num-
Der, and the many wires which have
to act to connect all of the nerves and
muscles which must focus the eye upon
the object to be seen. The eyeball must
be turned in the proper direction, so
that the light strikes the pupil properly
and the pupil itself must expand or
contract according to the distance Of
the object, in order to zee it clearly.

MIDDLETOWN PRETTY WEDDING
Miss Eliza Cochran Green Becomes
Bride OF Richard Rodney, New Castle

Miss Eliza Cochran Green Becomes
Bride OF Richard Rodney, New Castle
Richard Seymour Rodney, of New
Castle and Miss Eliza Cochran Green
of Middletown. were married on Sat-
urday, in st. Anne's P. E. Church,
Middletown. The Rev. Percy L.
Donaghay, rector, officiated. The
bride entered the church with her
brother, Harold w. Green, of Boston.
by whom she was given in marriage.
The matFon of honor was Mrs. Barclay
H. Trippe, of East Orange, N. j.,
and the groom's best man was James
S. Rodney. of Clarksburg, w. Va, a
brother. The ushers were: Victor H.
Green, of Middletown; George 1.
Lockwood and Samuel Wagner, of
Philadelphia, and Charles Sudler
Richards, of Georgetown. The brides
gown was of white satin with satin
court train from the shoulders, silver
trimmings and real lace, and orange
blossoms. She carried 3 BRIDES boquet
of lilies of the valley and white Ii
lacs. Her goingaway gown was of
green broadcloth trimmed with beaver.
The lace on the brides gown had been
worn by her grandmother. Mrs. John
P. Cochran. on the occasion of the
inauguration of her husband as COVER
nor of Delaware in January, 1875.
The matron of honor wore a gown of
turquoise blue velvet, trimmed with
fur, and picture hat of silver lace,
and carried bouquet of snap dragons.

reception at the home of the bride
followed the ceremony at which many
guests were present. The couple left

turn will live in New Castle.

centIpedes and !seorplons.

Centipedes and scorpions are occa-
sionally found on the desert by turn
ing over large stones or pOking into
mass of rotting wood. They may be
seen also in old adobe houses around
chimneys and fireplaces. The fond
relative at home imagines venomous
creatures wriggling all over the land
seape, but it is not so in reality. More
over, their sting is not so deadly as to
cause one to be singled out as a hero
for having been bitten. Unless ones
blood Is in very bad condition it causes
little more inconvenience than a bee
sting.

Despite the factional differences on
the Republican side of the Delaware
Senate, there cannot be but rejoicing
the deadlock has ended, even if the
Democratic side had to assist in or
ganization. The long drawnout bat
tie in which the states money was
being spent and nothing done in re-
turn, was causing general indignation
and has made many tax payers of the
opinion there should be passed a law
to prevent deadlocks in the future.

The timely article from he pen of
our former townsman Rev. j. Dirick.
son Cummins. of Centreville, Md,
shows what Smyrna can do toward
making day electric current a paying
venture, if Town Council would but
practice the economy and show the
progressive spirit that is exhibited at
Centreville. Day current has become
an established fact not only in Gen.
treville but in all the larger towns on
the Eastern Shore. Electricity is a
goth Century need. Applied to the
many devices in daily use, day current
would in time be indispensable in
Smyrna. The thing to do is to rehabili-
tate light our electro plant and put it in
continuous use as a revenue producer.
We hope as Rev. MIR. Cummlns says, that
the suggestions he makes will be use
ful to our Town Fathers in "solving
some of the problems. - We thank
Mr.. Cummins for his interest in his
cold hume town" and for his kindly
reference to "The Times" 1t is
such encouragement that makes effort
a pleasure and worth while.

In expatiating on the moral lesson
to be CLEANED by the life of Harry
Kendall Thaw, murderer of Stanford
White and spectacular figure in a
number of episodes, the Middletown
Transcript, lays the blame, using the
caption, Ruined by Money" 1t says {:
"Thsw's hired detectives would prob
ably have run him safely into Canada.
but he got drunk. Then when the
officers of the law finally cornered him
in West Philadelphia, he melodramati-
cally made an attempt at suicide.
slashing his throat and one wrist, but
taking good care not to swallow any
of the poison tablets (probably mer-
curic bichloride) found in his pocket.
"His has been from early manhood
a lurio career marked thruout by
many spectacular episodes made possi-
BILE by the possession of no end of
money. Years ago he lavished $50
900 on a banquet to the gilded youth
of Paris, and at another time lost
$40, 900. it is said, at a single sit
ting, gambling.
His old mother with her check hook
has come to his rescue, and once more
the Thaw money will be poured out
without stint to keep the precious
youth at liberty still to play his pranks
or worse.
"For the boundIess devotion of
motherhood, even where, as in this
case. the richest treasures of heart
and purse are poured forth upon the
most unworthy of objects, one cannot
but feel some sympathy. The hardest
heart will experience some pity for
this white-haired old mother, wrung
anew by the wicke1ness of her scape-
grace of son. But must not the just
moralist say her sorrows are largely
of her own making-that she is but
reaping the bitter harvest of her own
foolish sowing? Doubtless Harry was
ga spoiled child' and the mothers
too fond indulgence helped him for
ward in his mad career. But whether
this be true. or not. this much is
known that when his father died leav-
ing the youth an income of $50, 900
a year, his mother unwisely increased
that ruinously big sum for a boy to
spend to the enormous annual figures
of $50, 600. the interest at 5 per cent.
