ASPHYXIATED IN CAR

George H. Haley, Jr., aged Al,
who farmed the Williams property
near Colt, Kent county, was asphy-
xiated by carbon monoxide gas last
Thursday when his car ran into a
ditch near Warwick as he was pre-
pairing to aid other motorists whose
machines had been drowned out by
the heavy rain.
Witnesses said they saw Mr.. Haley
attempt to turn his machine around
in the road and as he did so he ran
into the ditch. Owing to the heavy
downpour of rain at that time they
did not go to his assistance and it
was half hour later that Carl
Starkey came by in his truck and
stopped to offer help. Starkey found
Mr.. Haley slumped in the seat of the
machine with the motor still run
ming. The man was dead when
Starkey stopped.
Mr.. Haley is survived by his wife
and five minor children.

Rising Sun went into the lead in

IN so much dust that none OF the

enough to get by before the season
ends on September 1.
The game Saturday on the local

fast one, and looked like the Wis

for a home run and two singles,
scoring three runs.
Conway struck his stride after the
first inning and had the Rivermen
eating out of his hand from then on.
They secured but three hits in the
remaining eight turns at bat. Two
of these came in the ninth but d1d
not result in runs.
Rising Sun came through with
one run in the second, and one In the
third. The fifth inning was a kill

run put the Sun boys out in front,

Symons, director of the Extension
Service. This provides for payment
of a so-called basic price for a spec

MARRYING MINISTER FINED
FOR REWARDING TAXI
DRIVER

The Rev. Peter Charles Hoffman,
of Hagerstown, was fined last week
$50 and given suspended sentence
for three years on condition that he
perform no more marriage ceremon-
les in Washington county.
He had pleaded guilty to charge
of rewarding Francis Butler, taxi
driver, for bringing him couples to
be married. Justice Harry E. Sny-
der, in the Hagerstown Juvenile
Court, passed sentence. The same
law under which the Hagerstown
minister was fined also applies in
Elkton, Maryland's Gretna Green,
Willis R. Jones, Deputy Attorney
General, declares.
This Office" Mr.. Jones said, has
no jurisdiction over such cases. It's
entirely up to- the local authorities,
whose duty it is to enforce the law.
If anybody at Elkton wants to take
action, he will do so under Article
81, Section 1854, of the Code of Mary
land"
The section says, in part: ut
shall be unlawful for any minister of
the gospel, or any other person, who,
under the laws of the State of Mary
land, is now or may hereafter be au-
thorized to perform marriage cere-
monies, to give, either directly or in
directly, or offer to give any money,
present or reward as an in
ducement to bring, take or d.
rect any person or persons contem-
plating matrimony to said minister
of the gospel"

PEACHES APLENTY

One hundred and fifty bushels Of
peaches were scattered over the
meadow at the foot of Gray's Hill,
near West Grove, when brand new
truck from Southern Pines, struck a
fence at the bottom of the hill and
overturned into the field, and inn
mediately caught fire. The owner
and his helper escaped with no more
serious injuries than many lacera-
lions ON the legs and arms, but the
struck was irreparably damaged, even
though the West Grove Fire Com
pany responded in q short time and
were able to subdue the flames.
Although the fruit was literally
sprayed with the chemical, there
were many who refused to be fright
aned by this unusual dressing and
made the most Of the accident by
gathering up the peaches and taking
them home. The owner OF the
truck remained in West Grove to
await the representatives Of the In
surance company. who came to adj
5ust the loss. The truck was en-
route to a commission house in New
York City, when the accident oc-
