SEE BUSY SEASON
AHEAD FOR CRABS
Mild Winter i'm Waters Both
Sides of Del-Mar-Va Pen
insula Has Been Great Aid
CRISFIELD is CENTER

Packers and catchers of crabs
are predicting promising season
on Del-Mar-Va Peninsula in the
two bays and their tributaries.
Last year the crab season was con-
sidered highly successful both from
the standpoint of production and
giving employment to many water
men. There was a good supply of
both hard and soft crabs at the
beginning of the season and the
number increased, through migra-
ton, as the season advanced. Due
to warm weather of the past two
winters, the temperature of the
waters has not been low enough to
cause any heavy freezing in the
bay and its tributaries and there
has been no great loss of crabs be-
ing frozen during a cold spell after
they have come out of the mud
during warm weather. Crisfield is
the center of the soft crab indus
try. There are more than score
of crab-packing plants operating
there during the season. The
peeler crabs are taken on the gras-
sy bottoms of Tangier Sound and
other tributaries of the bay and
are placed in floats at the crab
shanties or packing houses until
the crabs shed and become soft
crabs. These floats, which accom-
modate from twenty to forty dozen
crabs each, have to be f1shed sew
eral times during each twenty-four
hours in order that the soft crabs
NAV be taken out at once and
placed in grass, otherwise they
would become papershell or buck
ram crabs which are illegal to
market. When soft crab IS
once taken from the waters, it will
remain soft when properly packed
and iced for shipment, even to the
West Coast.

Beasten put the car in the garage
at $50 o'clock that evening, and
did not know of his loss until he
went to the garage Wednesday ev-
ening to get the machine. He
notified the police, but nothing has
peen heard of it. During the past
week chicken thieves have been
active in Middletown again, rob-
bing the henneries of Samuel Berg

BECOMES INSANE
Leonard Bank, Negro, Near
Clayton, Wrongly Charged
With Stealing Chickens
TAKEN TO FARNHURST

After 18 chickens belonging to
Abel Numbers, residing west of
Clayton, disappeared mysteriously,
Leonard Banks, colored, living on
the farm of Ralph Jefferson of
Smyrna, adjoining the farm of Mr..
Numbers, was questioned by State
police and later lodged in the Do
yer Jail. He was later released on
bail furnished by his landlord, Mr..
Jefferson. The arrest and grilling
are said to have had such an effect
on Banks mind as to bring on an
attack of acute insanity and yes
terday it was found necessary to
send him to the State Hospital at
Farnhurst, where it is thought that
his mental arrangement will prove
temporary The chickens were af-
forwards found, it was said, wand
ering about the farm. Investiga-
tions are being made by the State
Police to determine whether or not
their questioning of Banks has
been responsible Tor MS Suouen IN

from his office had questioned
Banks and the latter's two sons
regarding the disappearance of
chickens, but said that he did not

were such as to cause a man to go
insane. DR.. NJ. A. Tarumianz, SUI

BLAZE AT HARRY
ENNIS GARAGE
Smyrna Firemen Called Out
at Three O'Clock Yester-
day Morning
DAMAGE ABOUT $4,000

Fire about three o'clock yester-
day morning destroyed a portion
OF the garage of Harry T. Ennis at
corner of Main and North Streets,
entailing a loss. of about $4,000.
partially covered by insurance.
The burned section included his
office, showroom, and a store for
his automobile supplies, tools, and
also a quantity Of groceries. The
origin of the fire is unknown, but
it is believed to have been caused
by short circuit at the radio,
which was located in his office.
The siren was sounded and the
Smyrna firemen made quick re-
sponse. Their efforts to keep the
fire from spreading was materially
helped by the building being
sheathed with corrugated iron.
With metal roofs and sides the
flames were kept confined within
the building. Smoke rolled from
the building and completely en-
veloped the section in and around
the lower end of Main Street. "A
considerable crowd had gathered,
some staying until the fire had
been completely extinguished. The
fire was discovered by Harvey
Johnson, colored, who gave the
alrm and ran to the Four Corners
alarm and ran to the Four Corners
with the Fire Hall. BY this time
Mr.. Ennis was called from a sound
sleep and he with the aid of help
got the cars out of the garage. AS
the fire started in the front part
of the building all efforts to save
any of the contents were to no
avail. This is the second fire Mr..
Ennis has had Little over a year
ago, to be exact, Monday Jan. II,
1881, he was visited by fire which
started in the third floor where
he had stored some empty oil bar
rels and burned considerable
part of the interior of the building.
The fire yesterday morning was
considerably worse in that it en-
the whole front and prac-
ticaly destroyed the contents.
