II Otel Mullin Sold

The Hotel Mullin, located on Market
Street between Fifth and Sixth has
been sold by Mundy & Co., for the
owner, Thomas M. Mullin, to Thomas
Carney. The consideration, it is I'M
derstood, was $4,000.
This is considered n of the best
hotel propositions in Wilmington. 1t
is a 1our-story steel constructed, fire
proof building, with a frontage of "a
!. eer, 8 inches, on Market Street, and
a depth of 1T feet, running through
to Shipley Street. There are SO guest
rooms and Ia baths.
When Mr.. Carney was asked what
his plans were in regard to the future
of the hotel, he was not prepared to
make an announcement.
Cornelius Munday, formerly the
leading wholesale liquor dealer in
Wilmington is the head of Mundy d
Co., real estate dealers. The fact that
the Mullin sold for nearly 100000 a
foot does not indicate that liquor Ii
cense affected property values in
Wilmington.

Girls Do Farm Work

Farm work has begun in earnest in
the region around Milford. Less will
be planted this years than ever before
for many years bcause of the scarcity
of help.
There is so much other work in this
section that the men are tempted by
the high wages paid. Many men are
employed in the State highways and
others are engaged in the operations
at Fort Salisbury, Cedar Beach. AL
though the farmers are offering as
high as S45 a month, with Is days
rest in August with pay, they cannot
get enough hands. During the re-
mainder of the year farm help expects
Saturday afternoons and Sunday off
with feed for their horses, if they have
any.
1t has been necessary for some OF
the farmers to have their sons and
daughters, who are attending school
away from home, to come back and
help with the farm work. College
girls, wearing blue overalls, can be
seen in the fields of Cedar, Slaughter
and Prime Hook necks, and they are
said to be doing excellent work. In
addition they are allowed the regular
wage of farm hands.

British Club

A British-American Club, comprised
of men and women or whose parents
were such, has been organized in Will
mington. The following have been
elected temporary officers: President,
Rev. W. A. Vrooman; vice president,
Mrs. S. M. Thompson; secretary, Bert
ram Taft; treasurer, Edward Irvine.
Regular monthly meetings will be
held in the First Unitarian Church un-
til other suitable quarters can be Sc
cured.
]. w. Brassington urged the mem
bers to do their utmost tot cement the
friendship between the two great Eng,
lish speaking nations. He touched
briefly on the Irish question and de-
clared the British government is doing
its best to solve the difference between
the two peoples.
The next meeting of the club will be
held Friday evening, April 9th.

Formal Transfer of HarbOr Site

The tract of land situated at the
NOUN Oh the Chrlstlana river, on the
south side, belonging to the Lobdell
tract, has been formally transferred to

bose of developing a port, and will be

Beard of Harbor Commission.
The price to be paid will be S232,32o;;
The tract comprises, 1886 acres, and

have been appropriated for harbor
work.

Growers and Gamers in Doubt

Delaware growers as well as can
ners are figuratively "up a tree with
reference to the growing and canning
of tomatoes this year. According to
a local Gamer the government is sell
ing canned tomatoes in the various
citIe.i at a price less than it costs the
Gamers to put them up. Growers,
however, are urged to plant tomato
seed in large quantities, so as to have
the plants ready to put out, if needed,
thus assuring an early crop.
No contract price for tomatoes has
as yet been named as the Gamers
claim they do not know what to offer,
