WIND STORM VISITS SMYRNA
Roofs Blown OFF Buildings on the
Bryan Farm, Tenanted by Daniel
Lightning and Thunder

Smyrna and vicinity was visited by
an electric storm shortly before mid
night last night, which accompanied
by a high wind, was more like a sum
mer storm than a January weather
visitation. Some Smyrna street lights
went out Of commission. Aside from
several tree limbs being blown down,
chimneys blown over, chicken coops
and houses upset, there was nothing
Of particular note about it as far as
town limits were concerned, but out
in the open country, the wind was lit
orally cyclonic. On the Bryan farm,
tenanted by Daniel Ford, between
Smyrna and Clayton, the wind felled
trees, unroofed the out-buildings and
tore up the fodder rick with sheer de
struction. No one was hurt and the
stock escaped. Other farms locally,
felt the effect of the storm but to
what extent was not learned before
the Times went to press. During the
storm which semed to be more or less
severe from Middletown on down the
State to Seaford, the lightning was
vivid and the thunder heavy. Tele-
phone and telegraph operators were
rather worried fo time over the
manner in which the lightning was
playing over the wires, but the lines
were kept in commission and com
munication was not broken. At Mid
dletown the lightning was unusually
vivid and there was considerable
thunder. Heavy rain also fell. The
telephone and electric lightning sys-
tenn continued to give service, how
ever Dover had unusually heavy
thunder, but the lightning was not as
vivid as in other places. No damage
was done there, but residents were
surprised at a storm of that charac-
ter in January. Milford had a storm
in which there was rain, considerable
wind and much thunder and the light
ming was rather lively for a time.
| There was no damage done, according
to reports last night. Seaford had a
heavy wind storm accompanied by
rain and thunder and lightning, but
except for the electric lightning sys-
TEN, the current coming from Laurel,
being put out Of commission for a
time, there was no damage done.
Thunder was heavy and lightning
vivid at that point, and similar condi-
tions prevailed in Laurel, though the
electric lights were not affected. In
Lewes there was some wind and a
heavy rain. There was thunder and
lightning, but it was not 50 heavy as
in some Of the other places.

NEW ROUTE REHOBOTH BEACH
AROUND THE TOWN OF MILFORD
STATE HIGHWAY COMMISSION
AND BUSINESS MEN AGREE
Road Will Go East of the Town From
dupont Boulevard and Will Come in
Direct Line With RehObOth Road

After months Of wrangling the
State highway department has decid-
ed on the route of the road to be built
east of Milford that will cut the cen
ter of the town off from the main line
of travel to Rehoboth. The route was
decided upon Monday afternoon at a
meeting held in the First National
Bank building at Milford which was
attended by Tngineer c. D. Buck and
Joseph E. Holland, for the State high
way commission, and E. H. BrattOn,
L. N. Healn, /. D.Short, Daniel Hirsch
and Vernon Benson, of Milford, they
being members of the committee ap-
pointed at mass meeting held in the
town to confer with the State high
way commission on this subject. Three
routes that had ben surveyed were
submitted to the special committee
from Milford and they were requested
to select the one most desirable to the
town. They selected the route that
will begin near the northern limits of
the town at the farm owned by Frank
Salevan, which is situated just south
of the intersection of the State High
way and the concrete road leading
north from Milford. The route then
extends direct to the High Hill wharf
of the Mispillion river on the eastern
limits of the town, and thence to the
Burt Deputy lands where the road
from Milford bends going to Reho-
both A member of the committee
stated that they selected the "lesser
of the three evils" The new road ex-
tends for distance Of little over
one mile, and will necessitate many
bad fills and a draw bridge over Mis-
pillion river. These routes have been
opposed by the business men of the
town on the grounds that it will take
a large amount of business out of this
town. The State contends that in
summer the traffic was too heavy
through Milford for the size Of the
streets and it was necessary to con-
struct another route in order to take
care of the traffic to and from Reho-
both.

KENT JAIL DELIVERY STOPPED
Sheriff Frazier Tipped of by 'Trus-
ty," Finds Plot Under Way

Following discovery that some prls-
oners had planned a Jail delivery,
Sheriff Frazier, Thursday removed
Fracis Mccoy, negro, awaiting trial
on a charge of murder and said to be
the instigator of the plat, to the New
Castle county workhouse. The sheriff
is said to have ben tipped off by
"trusty" several days ago that there
was a plot for a Jail delivery. The
sheriff on making an investigation
found that part of the plaster on the
inside Of one of the cells had been
picked out and probably in another
night enough of the stone wall would
have been removed to escape. Mccoy
is accused of numbering Dickey Turn
er. negro, last November, and is be-
ing held for the February term of
Court for trial. The Sheriff decided
it would be best to remove Mccoy to
the Workhouse. Other prisoners said
to have been implicated are confined
in cells and closely guarded. 1t has
not been discovered what implement
was used in picking away the plaster.

NO KENT DEL -MAR-VA ACTION
Smyrna Delegation Meets With Dover
Chamber of Commerce But do Nothing

At the meeting Thursday night of
the Dover Chamber of Commerce to
discuss the future of Kent County as
to affiliating with the Del-Mar-Na
Eastern Shore Association there were
SO few in attendance that aside from
a formal talk over the situation, moth
ing was done in relative to any def
mite action as to Kent County remain
ing in the association. Five delegates
were present from Smyrna and about
eight or nine from Dover. DIR. G.
Layton Grier of Milford was present
as was also Carl Monees of Salisbury
both members of the Del-Mar-Va As
sociation. 1t was thought that if the
matter could be brought to the atten-
ton of the Dover Rotary club per-
haps something could be accomplished
and it is more than probable that at
the next meeting of the Rotary Club
the subject will be discussed and some
plans made for a revival Of interest in
the association.
