Paris Carney, aged IL, son of
Harvey Carney, employed on Meadow
Lawn Farm of F. A. Marker, Jr., near
Clayton was arrested Friday for the
theft of $97 in money from the bed
room bureau drawer on the second
floor. He entered the house two
weeks ago by climbing the front porch
and prying open a window. He was
arrested by State Detective Wharton
and taken to Dover. He confessed to
the Detective the theft and of divid-
ing the money with his brothers, Har-
vey and Elwood and his sister Lola.
He and his brothers were held under
bail by Magistrate Burton for the
February term of court.
That the past season has been one
of the greatest in several years, for
Delaware orchardmen, is indicated by
the large shipments passing thru
Clayton over the Delaware Division of
the Pennsylvania Railroad. The apple
shipments for last week was 249,112
baskets, as compared with baskets
for the corresponding week of last
year. To date 1,550,469 baskets of
apples have been shipped as compared
with 114,435 baskets for the cores
ponding period last year. Last weeks
shipment of pears also greately out
numbered the baskets shipped in the
corresponding period last year. The
shipment last week totalled 4,943 bas-
kets as compared with none for the
corresponding week last year. The
total shipments to date numbers 139,-
100 baskets, with no comparison made
on the company's records. The penin-
sula tomato crop is another one of the
profitable ones for the farmers this
year. Last week 1916 baskets of to-
matOes were shipped over the-division,
as compared with 1,267 baskets for
the corresponding week last year, to-
falling 329,855 baskets to date as.com-
pared with 116,413 baskets for the cor
responding period last year.

Harrison, reading from dictionary,
solemnly assured the senate that an
elephant was noted for its solid
ivory and carried wood on its head"

MAY REVISE CODE
Committee Appointed to Change
Topeka Building Regulations.
Builders Club to Take Year on
Big Job.

Within twelve months it is probable
that the construction of house in
Topeka with a single roof, will be
illegal.
There has been appointed by the
Topeka Builders club a committee
with the instructions of the club to
prepare a revised building code for
the city. This code will probably be
a year in the course of preparation.
In its arrangement the builders
committee expect to receive the CO.
operation of the state and city fire
marshals, insurance men, engineers,
and real estate men, as well as others.
The committee is headed by Ralph
E. Scamell, president of the Builders
club. 1t includes Henry Bennett, Jr.,
city; Roy Finney. of the Topeka
Foundry & Iron Works, representing
the steel design men; NJ. z. Linton,
representing the electrical contrac-
tors; Irwin Snattinger, looking after
the legal aspects of the new ordi
nance.
Check to City Commission.
When the new code is complete, it
will be submitted to the city commits
sion, with the recommendation that it
be incorporated in the city ordinances.
The present code was revised in
1916. There are many features in it
which are now obsolete. Scamell de-
CAdA &C. mere are OiL6T 16dIQISS
which would be retained in the new
code.
1.-The lining of flues was required
in the 1915 code, and that is some
thing we would continue" Scamell
says. But much of the regulation
governing specifications on design of
reinforced concrete is out of date.
TT is quite possible that the new
code will forbid the use of single
roofs on houses within reasonable
limits inside the city,
The clause which will eliminate
single roofs will undoubtedly receive
the endorsement of the city fire de-
partment.
Shingles Responsible for Loss.
Assistant Fire Marshal Joseph
Waidedich declared that 80 per cent
of the fire damage which has hap
pened during the past three months
the busiest three months in the life of
the department-could have been
averted if composition roofing of fire
proof material lad been used.
THE public doesn't seem to know
that a roof of fire proof material can
be secured as cheaply, almost, in it's
original cost, as a single roof
Waidelich asserted. And when it
comes to long life, and the value over
long term of years, the fire-proof
roofs are the cheaper, even if there
There is already a district within
the city which comprises Kansas ave-
nue. and ono or two streets immedi-
ately adjacent, which is known as the
fire district" and within which shin
gle roofs are forbidden.
But the restriction of building where
dwellings are close together, to the
use of fireproof roofing, would vastly
decrease the fire damage, Waidelich
declared.
To Use New Ideas.
The Builders club meeting is in
possession of sample codes from a
large number of cities, which they will
use for purposes of comparison, in
framing the code which they will SUBJ
NIT to the city authorities for the use
of Topeka.
But we are not going to slavishly
copy the codes of other cities. When
We have new idea and a good one
of our own, we are going to use it,
Scamell declares

be weeks before service can be re-

Washington. Feb. 25.-President
Harding is understood to have told
Republican members of the house

navy personnel. the total number OF
enlisted men ought not to be cut under
$4,000.

strongly urged legislation for CONVEX
sion of two battle cruisers into air
plane carriers. While the question as 10
whether the $40 members of the first
year class at Annapolis. to be gradu-
ated in June. should be commissioned
was not considered in detail. il was
stated that the president advocated a
sharp reduction in the number of men
to be admitted to the academy each
year in the future.
: Sentiment in the committee had
been expressed As favoring an appro-
priation bill carrying about $500. 00o.-
900 as against the $3.50. 100000 asked
by the navy department. and provision
for a navy of $4,000 men instead OF
the minimum of 10000 set by the
department.
