esfuerZos pude persuadirle a que nos
marchasemos de aquellos contornos.
Y va muy tarde, cuando ell pueblo Sc
entregaba al descanso, olvidado de
las miserias y anomalias de la vida,
regresabamos su casa, donde, des-
pues de cambiar algunas palabras,

bre ser, tai como Sc. anido ell amor
una, vez en- su corazon, ahora Sc ha-
bia anidado la idea de morir en- su
cerebrc, sin que hubiera quien 10
evltara.-
A la malfana siguiente, y muy de
madrugada, corrfa por el pueblo la
fatal nueva de la muerte del '1oco",
como lie llamaron aquellos que no lie
comprendieron. Sc habfa suicidado,
arrebatandose la vida, de una name
ra cruel espantosa Con una ma

rias del cuerpo asf, desangrandose
lentamente, habrfa visto llegar la
muerte con ell desprecio del que ja-

muerto, sin que deiara de dibujarse
en- sus labios la habitual sonrisa, pc
TO eSta veZ, como satisfecho de Su
crimen. Quiso unirse "ella", ARE
batandose la vida. Creeria, tai vez,
que con la muerte Sc extinguirian sus
sufrimientos. iCobarde! Infeliz de
el. Conocio Dios, lie amo y no su-

de su muerte Sc habias trocado egofs-
ia y celosa, Y no satisfecha con de-

CAPTURE NEGRO WITH GUNS
Pursue Alleged Thief For Hours
Through Woods Near Laurel

A real man hunt at Laurel Thurs
day afternoon gave Laurel more ex-
element than anything that has hap
pened for years. Luther Cornish, col
ored, roadster, said to be wanted in
other states, went to the store of Mrs.
Gerthie Hitchenes, in East Laurel,
and when Mrs. Kitchens went to get
goods asked for Cornish grabbed the
cash register and started out. Mrs.
Kitchens grabbed his coat, but was
beaten off. Cornish made for a near
by branch. Soon after the alarm was
given women, with dogs and all kinds
of weapons, started in pursuit. After
a chase of several hours, mostly thru
woods, and many shots at Cornish, he
surrendered.

The brick work on the new Dover
public school building was started last
week after the concrete work had been
completed. While the progress of the
work was considerable slackened by
the bad weather of the past several
days, the contractors expect to easily
make up the lost time when good
weather arrives. The formation of the
building is taking a definite shape
now and the outline clearly shows the
location and size of the class rooms on
the first floor. Since the construction
work on the new school building has
been started, many persons have Wis
tied the scene and inspected the work.

CHANGES IN COURT PROCEDURE
Bills Proposed By Bar Association
Pass Both Branches of Legislature

Bills Proposed By Bar Association
Pass Both Branches of Legislature
When the House got down to bust
ness last week they took up for
consideration a esries of bills that
had been introduced in the Senate by
Senator Cam, and passed by that
body, correcting certain deficiencies in
the practice of law in the courts of
the State. All these bills had been
prepared and are favored by the legis-
lative committee of the New Castle
County Bar Association and as each
was called up for final passage it was
explained by Caleb S. Layton, Will
mingtOn attorney. The first of these
measures gives the Chancery Court
the authority to hear contested cases
in corporation elections, a power which
this court has not had and in fact a
power no court in the State had so
that there was no way heretofore of
deciding such contests when they de-
velOped in the directorate of any cor
poration chartered under the laws of
Delaware. The second bill extends
the time in which the defendant in a
foreign attachment case may appear
to defend himself. The third is re-
garded as an important measure be-
cause it gives the court the right to
determine when a corporations books
may or may not be pertinent evidence
in any hearing before a commissioner
In other words under the present law
corporations books may be dragged
into court when they have no bearing
whatever on the testimony or evidence
desired. This bill prevents this and
let's the courts have the right to say
what books, if any, shall be taken or
what portion of such books is neces-
sary to be examined. In explaining
the next of these bills Mr.. Layton said
it no doubt would cause some surprise
to know that at present the Chancery
Court is without power to enforce its
DEGREES in certain cases and that Della
ware is one of only three states that
do not have a law similar to this one
now proposed. He said that all man
has to do now to avoid executing a
deed for instance, under a ruling of
the court, is to leave the State and he
cannot be molested or if he remains
he may be put in Jail but he cannot be
compelled to attach his signature to
any legal papers. Under this bill if
the defendant does not perform as or
dered the court may name q master
to execute the courts decree. The
next bill provides for the recording of
titles to land involved in condemna-
ton proceedings. At present no rec
ord of title to such property is record
ed. Another bill extends the time for
moving for writ of possession in the
Superior Court. The House also pas
sed last week one of Senator Simon
tons child labor bills. This particular
act provides that no girl between the
ages of ID and 16 years, who has tc
work, can be employed more than
hours a day or more than 48 hours Z
week with a half-hour rest period Al
noon every day. 1t exempts those
employed in canneries, on farms anC
I in the domestic trades
