DEATH-DEALING GAS USED TO
FIGHT FLU

I
Death-dealing chlorine has proved
to be one Of mankind's greatest aids
in the fight against disease. The gas
that annihilated the Princess Pat
Regiment now helps prolong human
life.
1t has long been known that chlor-
inc will purify water, but the Chem
ical Warfare Service has discovered
it will prevent influenza and bronchit
is if inhaled.
Since the war officers at Edgewood
Arsenal, Edgewood, Md, have expert
mented with the gas for its effect on
germ colonies. Tests with 13 forms
of germ in two hours killed all germ
life.
First to die,si was found, were the
streptocci and pneumocci, causes of
laryngitis, tonsilitis and influenza.
According to one of the officers,
Brigadier General Amos A. Fries of
the Chemical Warfare Service uses
the vapor in his Office and it is said no
one in the Office suffered a cold for
months due to the experiment.

TO HOLD FAIR IN
SEPTEMBER

The Cecil Democrat reports orders
have been given by the directors of
the new Cecil County State Fair As
sociation, to resume work on the
new fair grounds, located just on the
outskirts of Elkt6n. Several build
ings were erected last summer and
plans outlined for holding an agricul-
tural fair in September, but 1t was
found, after the catalogues had been
printed and much of the advertising
matter circulated, that it was i'm
possible to get things in proper shape
to hold fair, and the project was
abandoned for last year. A number
additional buildings will be erected,
including grand stand. In addition
to the agricultural fair. it is under
stood that there will be both trotting
and running races,

POISION KILLS MORE DUCKS
THAN GUNS

Additional reports received BY
State Game Warden LeCompte from
the game wardens of Hartford ant
Cecil counties indicate the latest
"pioson slaughter" of waterfowl, due
to PHOSPHORUS from the Government
arsensals, has taken the greatest toll
of canvasbacks of the season. Mr..
SLeCompte said:
II believe there were more canvas
backs killed March 10th to 22nd b:
the pioson than by gunners during
the entire season. 1t sounds incred-
.ible, but my informants tell me the
Kent county shores are lined with
hundreds Of dead birds. 1t is cry
ing shame to think that, due to ons
branch Of the Federal Government
thousands of valuable waterfowl that
another branch of the same Govern
ment is sworn to protect are wanton-
ly destroyed"

TO BUILD LIFT BRIDGE OVER
'f CANAL

In the suit in the United States
Court of the Pennsylvania Railroad
and the Delaware Railroad VS.
Secretary of War John w. Weeks, an
agreement has been reached. The
suit was to restrain the Government
from requiring the removal or
alteration of the Delaware Railroad
bridge at the Summit Level of the
Chesapeake and Delaware Canal.
Judge Morris, in the District Court
in Wilmington, ON August 16 last, in
a final decree, held that the Govern
ment could not interfere with the
ahutments Of the bridge and that
compensation for damages incurred
by the railroad was question for
Congress to determine.
The new bridge, it is stated, will be
Of the Gift" type, with a span Of
175 feet, allowing passage for vessels
with masts 140 feet in height, and
will cost 100000. It is presumed
that the cost will be shared by the
railroad and the Government. Col
onel Brown, it is stated, will invite
bids, about April 10, for bridges at|

LEGISLATURE ADJoURNs
r
RUSH OF BILLS MARKS
CLOSING HOURS

As is usually the case rush to pusl
through bills marked the closing hour.
Of Maryland Legislature, which ad.
journed its 80 day session on Monday
night.
/ Most of the bills pushed through in
the last hours, under suspension oil
rules, were local in character. lii fact,
taken as whole. very little really i'm
portant legislation was transacted dur
ing the entire session, which was mark
ed principally by Governor Ritchie' S
determined stand against the State
treasury being raided by all manner of
appropriations.
The Governors efforts were directed
towards keeping the tax rate down,
hence numerous measures that had no
other purpose but to get money from
the treasury, met defeat.
Tax eating propositions are always a
feature at the sessions of Maryland
legislatures, but the Governor was firm
in his stand, despite the threats of
politicians. He stated at the outset
that the annual tax rate should not be
greater than 27 and 1-6 cents on each
100 dollars of the assessment, and de-
feated numerous measures carrying
large appropriations that would have
required an increase in the tax rate.

TIRES STOLEN

The garage of Wilson E McNamee,
in this town, was entered by unknown
parties on Friday night last, and
fourteen of the smaller size tires
stolen. The thieves evidently knew
the lay Of the land, taking advantage
of the absence of the proprietors, who
were in New York at the time, after
cars.
A number of other tires had been
placed by the door and tire and rim
removed from new car but not
taken. Nothing else appeared to have
been disturbed, the thieves wanting
only the small size tires.
Entrance was effected by lifting
the hooks that secured the large
sliding door.

APRIL SNOW STORM

The snow storm of Tuesday, 1st
inst, that swept over this section
and the entire east, was the heaviest
April snow storm in the history OF
the Government Weather Bureau
The storm was remarkable in that
1t was accompanied by an electrical
disturbance, there being several
vivid flashes of lightning and heavy
peals of thunder while 1t was snow
ing. This is an unusual feature,
and one that few of our readers will
recall of ever occurring In their life
time.
The snow fall in this immediate
section was probably heavier than
any during the winter, and is esti-
mated to have been between ten and
twelve inches in depth.
