Barrie wrote it in 1892. and later

Out-of-Town People Get

them as you please. because the Quips
Editor is right on the job and is
having ms much fun out OF this IN.

The chief feature of the Quips con-

the added interest shown by out-of.

and the quips contest. They are read.

of their quips already had been re-

No. the writer of the ad desired TO

Shilling Explains Bill

Mr.. Shilling said the bill was drawn
long before the State board knew who
was to be on the budget committee;
that it was drawn out of the eXper-
ience that the board never has re-
ceived the necessary amount to run
the schools and that the bill was sim
ply to allow any local district so de-
string to raise more money than al
lowed in the budget. He said the
State board would not have anything
to do with money collected under the
provisions of the bill.
Mr.. Shilling also explained that the
bill would enable the State Board to
borrow, $4,000 from the general fund
in advance Of anticipated revenues, to
be used to pay teachers salaries.
He said that the budget two years
ago provided for an appropriation of
$2,00O,000 for each of the two school
years, with the provisO that should
the revenue for school purposes ex-
ceed the appropriation by 100000
that amount would be available each
year. He said it was felt that there
would be at least $4,000 over the
$2,00O,0OO this year, and this bill
would allow the board to borrow thai
amount against the probable excess oi
$2,000,000. He also explained that
more was needed for teachers salar
les this year than last because Of the
fact that there are more qualifeC
teachers this year and the conse
quence was that their contracts calleC
for larger salaries.
In reply to a question by Represen
tative Drexler, Mr.. Shilling said Their

laws, for school purposes, but it hal
not been collected. He said it reall.

BEAT AGED COLORED MAN
Jack Henry, Living Near Pine Tree,
Attacked by Masked Robbers

Jack Henry, an aged colOred man,
living near Pine Tree, about two miles
from Townsend, was brutally beaten
by masked robbers at a late hour
Tuesday night of last week, when he
refused to tell them where he kept
his money.
Only the day before Henry had sold
horse for $4,000 and it is believed
that the robbers, having heard of the
sale were bent on getting the cash
from him in a bold scheme. Henry,
by his keen wit, at the opportune
moment, saved his money and himself
from further punishment that had
been threatened him, by working a
ruse on the four robbers, which work
ed better than he had anticipated.
When they beat him numerically
for short time he told them that the
money was locked up in a small chest
in his bedroom, but Henry had the
full amount of the horse sale, also
about $4,000 in greenbacks in trous-
er pocket, and while the robbers were
prying open the empty chest upstairs
Henry fled out the front door and was
soon safe at the home of a neighbor
about one-half mile away.
Henry left no money in the house
hence the search of the culprits prov
ed fruitless, as they were after money
and nothing else, they told him. As
soon as he reached the neighbOrs
home he notified the highway police
but the thieves had fed when the Of
ficers arrived on the scene about z
half hour later.
Henry claims he was sound asleep
but was suddenly awakened by louC
talking downstairs, and before ht
could investigate, the quartet of rob
bers rushed into his bedroom and be
gan beating him to make him divulgt
the whereabouts of the money.
Henry says they were all colOre,
men but he was unable to identify an!
of them. The robbers travelled b.
auto and when they left the Henr,
home, sped up the boulevard towar
Odessa.
The local and state authorities ar
making every effort to apprehenl
them.

of $2,95O,OOO from the general fund
instead of the $2,0OO,OOO set up in the
appropriation bill, should the bill pass.
Says All Want Increases
Mr. Drexler took occasion again to
call attention of the fact that it is
the fault of the Legislature that the
money that should be paid under eX-
isting laws does not come in. He said
the tax is payable and should be col
lected. The only program he said he
has heard since coming to Dover has
been, "Get the money boys" Every
body, he said, wants salary increases
and appropriations increased. The
only other program he had heard of,
he said, was contained in the message
the members brought from home,
keep down the tax burden"
He said there seemed to be a gen
eral impression that there was plen-
ty of surplus in the State treasury to
meet everything. He added that if
all the bills carrying appropriations
and requests were passed there would
not be a penny left in the treasury.
He stated that the only department
that had come before the budget COM
mittee with the news that it had
enough money and did not require any
more was the State highway depart
ment.
Mr.. Hastings questioned Mr.. Shill
ing at length as to just what the bill
under consideration was and after
getting answers to his questions said
he thought it was a case of borrow
ing from a source against source
when it is not known that the money
is going to come in.
The bill was killed by a vote of %
nays to II years. Those voting for
the bill were Representative Klair,
McCauley, Scheifele, Sebold, Short,
Spicer, Townsend, White and Win.
trup.
The next bill brought up by Rep
resentative White would allow the
State Board of Education to give
scholarships to other institutions in
addition to the University of Della
ware for teacher training. The pres
ent law provides for 60 scholarships
in teacher training to the University
of Delaware.
Mr.. Shilling explained that only
women can accept these scholarships
to the Women's College and it was de-
sired to make it possible for some
men to get advantage of the scholar
ships and the only way would be to
send them to some other institution.
Representative Hastings thought
the bill was not definite enough the
way it was drawn, and on his motion
it was recOmmitted.
The House passed, by a vote of 25
to 6, Mr.. Whites bill providing fol
another election in case of a tie vote
for trustee of a school district OF
member of a board of education ir
: special district. The bill provides
for the election to be held the fol
lowing Saturday after the tie vote
occurs.
The House also passed two of Re
preventative Hastings bills amending
; the law relative to domestic surety
companies after they had been ex
: planned by Caleb S. Layton, attorney
of Wilmington. The purpose of these
r bills is to make a domestic suret!
