HELD OCTOBER Y and q
Poultry Display Promises To Be
Up To Usual High Standard

The committee on fruits and nuts
expect to display the finest lot of
fruits and nuts ever shown at a
local Grange fair. This exhibit will
give a good idea of the variety and
quality of products which can be
produced in this section of the
State. A bake will be held in con-
nection with the fair, and a full line
O. cakes, rolls, pies and bread will
be for sale. Dinner and supper will

room.
One of the interesting depart-

the exhibits of the Juveniles. The
handicraft of the children will be on
display and sale in a special booth
assigned to them. Another exhibit
which should prove interesting to
the public will be the display Of
flowers and plants, with keen COM

OF these exhibits.
Always a large feature of Mil
ford Grange fairs, the poultry
show this year will be unusually
fine this season. Details of this
feature of the affair will be pub

THOUSANDS ATTEND
l46TH ANNIVERSARY
OF BARRATT'S CHAPEL
Historic Edifice Celebrated Its
l46th Anniversary Last Sur-
day Afternoon.
CRIME WAVE NOT LARGE
Rev. Bunting, Preacher Of The
Day, Says Politicians ResPOn-
sibIe For Conditions.

At least 5000 people attended the
one hundred and fOrty-siXth anni-
versary of the building of Old Bar
rats Chapel, between Dover and
Frederica, last Sunday, The inter-
ior of the famous old structure,
which is known as "The Cradle of
Methodism," is the same as when
it was erected in 1880. 1t was in
this building on November IA, 1884,
that Bishop Thomas Coke, who had
been sent from England to aid the
Methodists in this country, arrived
while Francis Asbury, the first
American bishop of the church was
preaching. Asbury left the pulpit
and the bishops embraced. A star
now marks the spot where they met
and embraced. These pioneers were
today alluded to during the ami
versary as flaming torches spread
ing the light of Methodism."
Some idea of the crowd that at
tended from Delaware and other
states may be obtained from the
fact that not only was the field ad-
Joining the church filled with auto
mobiles, but machines lined each
side of the road for more than a
mile in the vicinity of the old
church.
The anniversary services were
held in the afternoon and were in
charge of Rev. c. w. Spry, who is
pastor of the M. e. Church at Mag
nolia and also in charge of Barratt's
Chapel. On the platform with Rev.
Mr.. Spry were Revs. L. w. Layfeld,
J. J. Bunting, D. w. Jacobs, W. F.
Dawson, E. H. Collins, w. E. Mat
thews and D. J. Moore.
Services opened with prayer by
Rev. L. w. Layfield and there were
musical selections by the choir of
Magnolia church and the Smyrna
quartet, composed of former Con-
gressman Walter o. Hoffecker, J. E..
Hoffecker, former State Senator L..
NJ. Price and w. NJ. Jefferson. W..
Harper Spry, of Wilmington, a
brother of the minister in charge,
sang several solos.
Rev. J. J. Bunting, of Crisfield,
Md, preached the anniversary SER
mon. He took as his text the ninth
verse of the second Chapter of 1
Corinthians: But it is written, eyes
have not seen nor ear hear, neither
have entered into the heart of man,
the things which God hath prepared
for them that love Him."
The preacher declared that the
American people were the most
favored of all people of the earth in
crops, in mineral wealth and other
things. He compared conditions

HISTORIAN REVIEWS WORLDS BIGGEST REAL ESTATE
 DEAL

While General Rousseau and his American troops attended the cere- monies on the parapet facing Prince Maksoutoff's castle at Sitka, another American officer caused the stars and stripes to be raised at Chilkat in place of the Hudson Bay flag.
 The "Lincoln," Captain Howard, was obliged to seek shelter at Chilkat on the evening of October Is, 1867, ac- cording to Rev. A. P. Kashevaroff in the January Alaska Magazine.
 The next morning it was blowing so hard that he did not send boats ashore but about noon the wind died down and at 1:30 five large war canoes came alongside, one flying the Hudson Bay Company's flag and piloted by Jack, an interpreter, who was dressed in the full uniform of an English officer r Soon afterwards the head chief ar rived, accompanied by his wife, the daughter of the great chief of the Sti- kines, and Capt Howard received the party on board. The Captain reports that the chief was very quarrel some Indian who was much incensed when whiskey was not offered. 'If you have no presents, coats, trousers and shirts, why come 2" he demanded. Talk without whiskey is nothing suppose plenty of whiskey, then talk good"
 Pacifed with a red-lined overcoat and gifts of molasses, tobacco and biscuits, the chief departed in charge of an American flag and staff, which promptly replaced H. B. Co., banner in fthe prow of his canoe, and Capt. How ard reported, "The flag was hoisted at Chilkat within few minutes of the time it was ihoisted at New Archangel, as it was afterwards ascertained." r Fr. Kashevaroff, who is curator of the Territorial museum. also confirms the story of the tangled Russian flag dropped from the staff to flutter down on the bayonets of the Russian sol diers. His story is illustrated with rare photographs of the American and Russian officials involved and views of the old Baranof castle.

Leniency with previous offenders is
blamed by Mr.. Mackall for much of
the alleged Disregard of rights of

Fear of God must be put into the

declared. ITO do this it seems nee
essary to face such motorists with a
severe prison sentence"
In spite of the fact that numerous
fatal accidents have been adjudged
unavoidable. Mr.. Mackall declared
that no accident in which persons
walking or working along highways
are killed is unpreventable.
"All that is needed to prevent such
accidents is a reasonable degree of
care on the part of automobile drivers
and decent regard for the rights of
Others" Mr.. Mackall said. eff auto
mobile drivers are not willing to OBJ
serve such rules of decency volun-
tarily they should be forced to do so
by fear of consequences"
Mr.. Mackall said that drivers Of au-

cases. He said that excuses that
