TO A NEW YORK CONCERN
FROST GAS COMPANY PURCHAS.
p ES THE PLANT FOR $4,000

Take Possession Immediately and In
tend Improving Plant and Exte nding
to ClaYton-I. N. OdeIl Manager.
The Smyrna Gas Works, owned by
Joseph Smithers of this town, which
year ago VISA taken over by the
Kent County Light Heat and Power
Corporation but reverted back to Mr..
Smithers for noncompliance, was
sold again yesterday to the Frost Gas
Company of New York. now incorpor-
ated under the laws of Delaware.
The consideration for the plant, fran
chise &c was SIG, 1000. The new con-
Germ takes possession Immediately, the
meter statements to April 1st belong
ing to Mr.. Smithers. The deal was
affected yesterday afternoon after a
long conference between Former Con
gresham Thomas w. Miller of Will
mingtOn, l. N. Odell, Danbury, Con-
necticut, and Mr.. Bailey, attorney, rep
resenting the Frost Gas Company and
Mr.. Smithers and his attorney Charles
Howell LeFevre, Esq. Former Con-
gresham Miller is in no way connec-
ted with the Company, it is said, he
only being the "go-between" in get
ting the parties together and promot-
ing the deal. The Frost Gas Company
is replted to be an old established con-
cern of New York and takes over the
Smyrna Plant, it is said, with no in
tention of issuing or selling stock,
they preferring to own the works out
fight and developing it to a profit
sharing basis. AS stated above, the
Smyrna industry is incorporated under
the laws of Delaware and will prob
ably have local organization with
an interlocking directorate with the
home or New York company. The
plant here will be managed by Mr.. l.
N. Odell, of Danbury, Conn.,, prac-
tical engineer on the subject, who
intends as soon as he ca find a res
idence, to move his family here and
become identified with Smyrna. When
interviewed yesterday, Mr.. Odell
could not state positively just what
his Company will do toward renovat-
ing and improving the plant. He
will first go over the situation
thoroughly and investigate and de
termine the needs. One thing seems
practically assured at the start the
capacity for making gas with new and
larger holders will be increased and
the pipe line run to Clayton to supply
the number of prospective consumers
in that town. Much preliminary work
has to be done and the management
hopes to announce something definite
soon.

Excitement prevailed at Dover Sat-

ors were in circulation concerning the
shooting, but an investigation by State

that the shooting was accidental. Ac-
cording to the story given by the offic-

LINCOLN HIGHWAY OF BRICK

Twentv-one Miles of Route From Clay

Not little elation is expressed in
Wilmington over the appropriation of
$500, 600 allowed by the Legislature
for the improvement of that portion
of the Lincoln Highway extending
from the Pennsylvania line, near Clay
mont, to Wilmington, by way of the
Philadelphis turnpike, and thence
through Elsmere, Marshallton, New
ark and to the Maryland line, toward
Elkton The work probably will be
commenced as soon as the new State
Highway Commission is appointed to
cooperate in supervision of the con-
struction of the road. There are
twenty-one miles of the Lincoln High
way in the State of Delaware, and the
appropriation will make it possible to
spend about S23, 600 a mile on the
road, and will insure fine piece of
road from Claymont to the Maryland
line. An additional width of four
feet will likely be added to the high
way from private sources making a
width of "a feet for the Philadelphia
pike from the State line at the north
to Wilmington. Some of the roadbed
will be of brick, laid in cement, nota-
bly, Penny Hill. {

GETS $4,000 FROM MUsKRATs
Edward Webb. a Port Penn Trapper,
Closes the Season With a Fine Rec
ord-Wlbert RawIeY Makes Record

Closes the Season With a Fine Rec
ord-WiIbert RawIey Makes Record
The most successful trapping season
in several years has drawn to a close
from Taylor's Bridge to Port Penn.
On account of the good prices for the
pelts and meat the trappers have been
able to do well on the marshes. Ed
ward Webb, who owns a muskrat farm
located near Port Penn, with
"Gus' Robinson has trapped nearly
5000 muskrats. The returns, includ-
ing muskrats, otter and skunk, netted
$4,000. Dealers at the opening of the
season offered from twenty-five cents
to thirtyfive cents apiece for the
hides, but the price advanced to forty
cents apiece. The extreme cold
weather late in the season caused a
scarcity of pelts because it was i'm
possible to get to the traps on account
of ice. Another recent factor is the
money received for the meat. Some
years ago there was only a slight de.
mand for "marsh rabbit" !" but in re-
cent years the demand has grown so
that often it has been impossible TO
meet it. Most of the meat is shipped
to Philadelphia and Baltimore. The
trappers on the Rawley farm have
trapped 1000 muskrats. This farm
has yielded more muskrats in the las t
five years than any in New Castle
county. This is the Hagan Fur Farm,
owned by Wilbert Rawley, of Leipsic
and trapped this year by James Smith
and Preacher" Rawley, brothek of
the owner. During the season these
two men caught 8. 573 muskrats and
2, 500 of the hides were sold at an
average of Al cents each; the bal
ance they still have on hand. \sThe
"meats" found ready sale at 10 cents
each. The two men canght as many
as 235 rats in one day. During the
season they lived in a cabin on the
"island" and rarely left it fori an
hour. They will both return to their
homes in Leipsic, in time for the shad
fishing season.

AS Result, the Middletown Local Po-
lice Court had Busy Session
The effects of the Anti Shipping
law and the prospective signing of
the Bottle law repeater were plainly
seen among the crowds that went to
Middletown on Saturday. All trains
from down State, including Smyrna,
dropped their share of the town Wis
itors, and many unique excuses were
heard from those who had made their
first visit to Middletown. One man
from Houston, Sussex county, made
the discovery that he had relatives in
the town, few hours after he had
arrived there. He told several per-
sons he had come to the town to see
them, when he did not know that the
relatives lived in the town. until be
met one of them at one of the local
bars. Many bibulous ones provided
themselves with bottled goods, and at
the closing, Saturday night, the shelves
of the two local hotels looked as
though cyclone had struck them.
All the bartenders were so overworked
they could not hand out the bottles as
fast as they were wanted, and many
who wanted bottles were forced to
leave town empty-handed. The effect
of the influx also was shown in the
police court at the Sunday morning
hearing, when six offenders were
mulcted in fines and costs amounting
to $32.
