Supervisors to Take
 Up Redistricting of
 Judicial Precincts

At the meeting of the board of su- pervisors to be held next Monday the matter of redistricting the judicial precincts of the county will be taken up, having been postponed from the last meeting of the board in order to allow the taxpayers of the various precincts to appear and make protest if they desire. It is the intention of the board, it is understood, to greatly reduce the number of judicial pre-. ctncts in the county. due to the fact that statistics compiled for several years back show that the amount of criminal and civil business in the coun ty precincts does not justify the num- Der of precincts at present existing If the plan purpOsed is put into effect it will mean the saving of thousands of dollars annually to the taxpayers of the county. it is pointed out. by cut ting off practically two thirds of the present precinct officials.

 Only one earth-being ever thought seriously of travelling to Mars. Cap tain Claude Collins planned to ride a sky-rOcket thither- But he couldn't get a rocket large enough.
 However. a famous French medium Mademoiselle Helene Smith, says she projected her soul to Mars. There she saw:
 Carriages without horses or wheels emitting sparks as they glided by; houses with fountains on the roofs: a cradle having for curtains an angel made of iron withoutstretched wings"
 She also brought back the latest fashion notes from the Martians:
 "The people" she said. ''were much like the inhabitants of the earth. save that both sexes wore the same clothes trousers, very ample, and long blouses drawn tight about the waist and decorated with various designs"
 Their language had a pleasant in donation. according 10 the mademoi- selle. Four words that she remem- bered when she came down to earth were:

 In America tho greatest exponent of the theory that Mars is inhabited was the late Professor Percival Low ell, director of the Harvard observa- tory at Flagstaff, Ariz.

DELAWARE'S DEATH
RATE HAS DECLINED

There has been a decline in the
people Of Delaware, during the
period of five years from 1915 to
1921, amounting TO more than 3s
per cent, as compared with the
deaths for any previous period. ac-
oordSg to figures issued by the
office Of the Metropolitan Life In
surance Company. This means a
saving of $1,000 lives during the
year 1921 alone, s. is pointed out
It IS believed that much Of this
reduction in death rate has been
due TO the public welfare work Of
various kinds which has been car
ried on with unusual vigor during
the recent years. The company has
aided greatly in this work.
II also IS pointed out that the
decline in the death rate among
policy holders is greater than among
the population generally. showing
that the welfare work carried on by
the company among those connect
ed with the company brought about
excellent results.
The percentage given, however, is
the total for the period OF five years.
The percentage OF deaths per 1000
persons in 1916 was 12; in 1921, was
81 in the Wilmington district, the
total percentage for this district
alone being 27.s for the five years,
