New Span On Boulevard Entrance To

New Span On Boulevard Entrance To
Wilmington to Be Ready November -
Tentative plans for an elaborate
celebration, sponsored by the Whining
ton Civic Association to mark the Of
fetal opening Of the new Market
street bridge across the Christiana
River, at Wilmington, which will take
place sometime between November 1
and November Is, were discussed at
great length at the first fall meeting
Of that association held last week. !.
B. F'inkelstein, president Of the asso-
citation presided at the meeting. The
plans suggested which will depend for
final action On the executive commit
tee Of the body, embrace brilliant
pageant devised and arranged by G.
B. Root, head of the Community Ser
vice, the engagement Of the services
Of some nationally known speaker, a
water parade of decorated yachts and
other vessels through the river, the
distribution Of souvenirs, and the ell
aborate decoration Of the Market
street stores and buildings. Invita-
tions will be sent to all the officials
of Wilmington, county and State, as
well as other prominent citizens Of the
State. Armistice Day, November II,
was selected as the date for the cele-
bration, dependent, of course, upon the
official notification Of the association
by G. w. Buck, State Highway Engi-
neer, as to the opening date of the
bridge.

DELAWARE SESQUI BUILDING
$4,000 Edifce Which Brought Only

$4,000 Edifice Which Brought Only
$1,000, Now Tea House at Dover
A check for $1,006,06, covering the
balance due the State treasury from
funds advanced for the erection and
operation of the Delaware State
Building at the recent Sesqui Centen-
nial Exposition, at Philadelphia, in
cluding the $1,000 for which the build
ing was sold, was turned owed to Gov
ernor Robert P. Robinson last week by
James C. Hastings, of Newark, secre-
tary of the Delaware State Building
Commission. The building cost the
State more than $4,000 to erect. Fol
lowing the exposition and in accord
ance with the request Of the governor
to settle up its affairs the building
was sold for $1,000 to w. T. Satter-
field, former postmaster at Dover ''the
highest bidder" who in turn, later
sold it to former State Senator Char
les w. Hardesty, of Dover, member of
the Building Commission. Mr.. Har-
desty bought the building for business
purposes, shipping it to Dover, where
it is now being used as a tea house.
At first, the commission wanted as
high as $4,000 for the building and
one or two local organizations even
went 50 far as to seriously consider
the offer. Later inability to sell at
any such high figure and the fact that
other buildings Of greater value near
by the Delaware building were being
sold for insignificant sums caused the
commission to accept the best price
offered, the $1,000 offer made by Mr..
Satterfeld.

CHESWOLD MAN AN INVENTOR
Chas. r. Sampson Invents Automatic
Safety Gates For r. r. Crossings

Safety Gates For IL. IL. Crossings
An invention that is believed will
make its mark in the mechanical
world has been completed and patent
ed by Charles R. Sampson, of Ches-
wold. 1t is an automatic safety gate
for railroad crossings. The plans of
the patent have been worked out over
a period of three years by Mr.. Samp-
son and the mechanical work has been
provided by the firm of E. L. Heite,
of Dover. A model of the proposed
fasety gate was seen at the Heite fac
tory Friday. 1t works on compressed
air and the gates are lowered and
raised as the train approaches or
passes a crossing. a number of rail
road officials have already become in
terested in the patent and have fol-
lowed the progress on the contraction
work Of the model with interest. When
the gates are installed and working,
a device along the rails lowers the
gates as the train approaches the
crossing. A similar device will also
be placed on the opposite side Of the
crossing and will raise the gate after
the train has passed. The gates can
be erected in a manner similar to the
gates now in use. The foundation Of
each gate contains an air pump which
works the machinery for raising of
lowering the gates. Since the COM
pletion Of the model, the Heite firm
have been working on a miniature
railroad to work with the model. Af-
ter this is completed, the new inven-
ton will be placed on exhibition. By
adopting this system it is believed the
railroads will be able to overcome the
hazards Of unprotected crossings.

effectively setting the brakes
thereon and when standing upon any
grade turning the front wheels of
such vehicle to the curb or side of
the highway"
The last part is an extra precau-
ton. Good brakes may hold the
car on a hill, but if they do not
hold tight, a little push or a wind
may starr the car downhill. If the
wheels are not turned to the curb,
disaster may follow.
On a street or road which seems
to be level, a sudden storm may
start the car if the brakes are not
set 1t only takes a second to set
them, it does no harm and it may
save lot of trouble. To be
doubIy sure, leave the car in gear.
