BEATEN AND ROBBED AT HOME
Daniel Ford, Residing on the BRYAN
Farm, AccOsted Saturday Night
-Four Negro Suspects Arrested


Daniel Ford, aged about 60, who
lives on the Bryan Farm, long known
as the Horace Spruance Farm, on the
road from Smyrna to Clayton, was
waylaid by a robber late Saturday
night at his home and robbed Of a
small sum of money, the full amount
of which is not fully determined. A
roll of $27O in notes was untouched.
Ford suffered a broken nose and
severe bruises on the head. He was
picked up unconscious and carried in
the house. DR. J. w. Clifton was
summoned and for time it was fear
ed he would not recover, but he has
regained consciousness and is improv-
ing steadily. He is unable, so far, to
give much clue of his assailant. He
had been spending the evening in
Smyrna and left here about eleven
o'clock. After putting his team up he
started for the house when near the
porch he was accOsted and brutally
attacked. When picked up he was in
pool of blood, his face being beaten
up badly Chief Of Police Lewis and
his assistant Joseph Broadway made
a thorough search but the assailant
made good his escape. Several clues
are being worked out, the opinion pre-
vailing that whoever made the attack
knew the surroundings and were IA
miliar with the whereabouts and hab-
its Of Mr. Ford who is quite deaf, and
could not hear them when they ap-
preached. Four colored men suspects
were arrested by Constable w. R.
Smith and Chief of Police Lewis, last
night. They are awaiting a hearing.

While the plan for a State ferry
making frequent trips across Chesa-
peake Bay between the Anne Arundel
shore, near Sandy Point, and Kent
Island, where the bay is about five
miles wide, as suggested by John n.
Mackall, chairman of the State Roads
Commission, has been the subject of
much favorable comment, persons liv-
ing along the line of the Maryland,
Delaware and Virginia Railroad are
chary about expressing themselves
publicly on it. j. Frank Harper, mem
Der of the Public Service Commission,
whose home is in Queen Anne's cOun-
/ ty said that the plan looked all right,
/ but that it was for the future. What
/ the people of Queen Anne's and Caro-
/ line are interested in, he said, is in
securing the best arrangement pOssi-
BILE for a continuance of service on the
] Maryland, Delaware and Virginia
State Senator Lawrence B. Towers
who has been interested in preserving
as much of the Maryland, Delaware
and Virginia service as possible in
spite of the sale of the road under
foreclosure proceedings, said much the
same thing. "Such a plan as Mr.
Mackall suggests" he said, might
work out all right, but what we want
lust now is to have the service be
+ween Denton and the MARYLAND, Del
aware and Virginia continued. Tha
is the main issue now. We have tina
service and we want it continued, ant
we do not want to be shunted off tt
something else until that is settled
Chairman Mackall is convinced, never
theless, that the plan he suggests i
the ultimate solution Of the problem
of connecting the Eastern and West
ern Shores Of the State.

Indian river consolidated school at

River Course by Cutting Six Canals

Government is Shortening MispilliOn
River Course by Cutting Six Canals
The work of cutting six canals to
shorten the Mispifion river, is pro-
crossing rapidly. The first cut, near
the Milford Phosphate Factory wharf,
was completed last week. 1t was
necessary to use the dredge entirely
for this cut as the bottom was too
hard and solid to permit the use of a
"blower." The other cuts have been
dug and are now being blown out to
the required depth. Work is being
delayed this week on account of nee
essary repairs to the "blower." The
canals when finished will shorten the
course of the stream many miles, and
greatly facilitate navigation in the
Mispillion river. The work is being
done by the Delaware Dredging Com
pany and the contract will be complet-
ed this summer.
