ter, who soon realized that her mother
had shot herself, hurried upstairs to
inform her father who quickly rushed
to a neighbOr's home to tell of the
shooting and to get them to return

be possible under the circumstances.
When a physician arrived soon after

woman having lived but a few min
utes after the shooting. An investl-
CATION by the authorities revealed that
the despondent woman had deliberate
ly planned to end her life, after hav-
ing been in a melancholy state of mind
for several weeks. 1t was not thought
that her condition was such as to war
rant any fear on the part of her rel

own life. Mrs. Welch was the young
est daughter of Mrs. Mary Lingo, Of

WRECK NEAR PORTER STATION
Freight Trains Crash and Tie Up Traf'
fc for Hour; Debris on Tracks

Traffic on the Delaware Division of
the Pennsylvania Railroad was tied
up for more than an hour about B
o'clock Thursday afternoon when two
sections of northbound freight came
together in a rear-end collision at the
BE tower between Bear and Porter,
blocking both north and southbound
main lines. No one was injured. The
trains in the collision were the second
and third sections of d a, carrying
perishable goods from the lower part
of the state. The second section had
come to a halt, as the result of sig
nal set against it. 1t was followed
closely by the third section of ID a,
which drifted into the rear of the
second section, demolishing the cabin
car. Debris was scattered over both
north and southbound tracks, and a
call for help was sent to Clayton, from
which place the wreck train was dis
patched. The wreck was cleared uE
about $50 o'clock. The first work OF
the wrecking crew was clearing up the
southbound track, after which botf
north and south bound trains were
sent around the wrecked train. Th'
Norfolk express, which arrived in Viii
mington at 6.13, was held up as re
suit of the wreck, for one hour. Th
company, it was stated, will make
Thorough investigation in order to as
sign the cause. 1t was believed tina
| the third section was following to
closely, and before the fagman on tn
second section could run back ia
enough to warn the engineer, it drift
ed into the other train. The wrec
occurred on a curve built through
cut. Trains are supposed to run fiy
minutes apart.

Dollar Day will be observed in Will
mington on Wednesday, August 2, un-
der the auspices of the Mercantile Sec
ton of the Chamber of Commerce. No
effort is being spared by Wilmington
merchants to make this occasion the
most satisfactory and successful one,
from the viewpoint of both purchaser
and merchant, that has been held dur
ing the entire ten years in which Dol
lar Days have been held in that city.
Wilmington merchants are distinct
ly proud of the record which they
have made through these semi-annual
Dollar Days, to which merchants and
public look forward with pleasure.
In order to give everybody within a
hundred miles of Wilmington an OPP
portunity to take advantage of the un-
usual merchandise which will be of
fered for one dollar, the Mercantile
Section is advertising this event IL
practically every newspaper within
that radius, and through other chan

within that radius to form motor par

and returning home with a sense
