A Jap's Impression of the Centennial

Crowds come like sheep; run here,
run there, run everywhere. One
man start, one thousand follow.
Nobody can see anything, nobody
can do anything. All rush, push,
tear, shout, make plenty noise, say
damn a great many times, get very
tired and go home. That day and
every day police no good plenty po-
lice in corners, doors, outside build
ings, plenty inside; all have hands
in pockets not one know anything
no matter what you ask he say
"Don't know" and that true, he
don't know, not have try to know.
Have sign everywhere : Don't ham
die anything;" oil the same; every.
body handles everything. We lose
a great many curious-small bronzes,
ivory carvings, laquer boxes, fine
porcelain and little pictures tell po-
lice, put their hands little deeper in
pocket and say, eDon't know" We
must take those things back, but
have not got them. cab r and the
poor man sighed as though bari kari
were in store for him. On being
asked what particular object pleased
them best in this coantry, both gen.
tlemen giggled consciously, looked at
each other, and replied in one voice,
"American women very nice"

Tlden and Credit Mobilier.

The Reformer, Tildon, is mixed up
with Credit Mobilier also. The Chi
cago Tribune says che is the man who
devised the cunning expedIent Of the
Credit Mobilier fraud" :
that "stole $37 800, 900, and stole the
capital stock of the company and
corrupted a great many people"
This is grave charge, but it
quotes The testimony taken before
The investigating committee. Judge
Hoar asked Oakcs Ames if he was
not informed by counsel that the con-
tract by which one company swai'
lowed another company "was VIC
lation of law" aud Ames replied that
they were informed that the trans
action vas legal. Thereupon be was
asked "Who we're the counsel that
gave that advice ?" And he replied
"Ir. Samuel J. Tilden, Mr.. Charles
Tracy and Judge Allen."
Mr.. John B Alley, an associate OF
Ames also swore that they were in
structed by eminent counsel that the
Credit Mobilier operations were legal,
and on being asked if the opinions OF
these men were on file, Mr.. Alley re-
piled that he did not know whether
they were in writing or not, but be
said "Mr. Tilden, | kno0, told me
that be regarded it as a compliance
with law" Mr.. G. S. Bushnell, also
Credit Mobilier witness, named Sam
uel j. Tilden as one who gave them
the advice referred to.
Right here it may be we'll to recall
the words of August Belmont, a Dem
ocrat of National reputation, who
said just before TiIden was nominal
ed: ale has been counsel tor all the
broken down corporations with which
Now York has been afflicted for a

There is a good deal of trouble in Colo
RADIO in the matter of fixing upon place
for the capital, some of the legislators
desiring it to be taken down toward the
New Mexico line, some wanting it to go
northward toward Wyoming Territory
willie others very anxious that it shall
remain ut Denver.
The nine bodies recovered from the
ruins of ST. Elizabeth's Convent, near Jo-
liette, Quebec, were charred beyond re-
cognition. Four of the inmates are still
missing The building was of wood.
The cause OF the fire remains unascer-
tanned.
The Internal Revenue Office is now as
sessing and collecting from banks and
bankers the tax on capital and deposits
during the current month. The amount
assessed has been about s., 100000.

Masonic Hall Company

ANN6AL MEBrfNG-RgPoRTs or THE
PRESIDENT AND TREAsURER-ELECT
OF OFFICERS
Yesterday afternoon the annual meet
ing Of the Masonic Hall Company was
held, at the Masonic Hall, in this city,
when the report of the President of the
board of Directors was read as follows;
WILMINGToN, Del, Dee. 27, 1876.
TO the NtocEhoiders OF the Nosonjc HoH
CO.
You are respectfully referred to the
Irensurer'S report for statement of the
receipts and expenditures during the
year.
We regret that owing to the continued
depro ssion in business, the receipts have
been lessened both from rent of the audi
tOrium and other parts of the building
One of the stores which has been idle
most OF the year, is now rented, and we
| hope soon to rent the room formerly oc-
| cupied by the Board of Trade.
The severe storm OF September last oc-
casioncd damage to the tin roof, which
cost about $1,000 to repair.
| As an additional protection against fire
we have had fiue additional attachments
| placed on the stage, each with hose at
| tached at all times, and accessible to the
| stage hands, and have also made arrange
mentS by which steam from the boiler
can be used, if desired, to eXtnguish any
| fire that may occur.
TO guard against accidents to persons
| assembled in the auditorium from panic
we have had fly-doors placed in the ma n
| entrance, to be used instead Of the sliding
doors, after the audience has assembled.
The construction of the building is such
that fire occurring on the stage could
not communicate rapidly to the part
which is occupied by the audience from
the fact that the ceiling and proscenium
are not made ota combuStiblc material, ,a-
is often the case in,such buildings, but are
lathed and plastered, and there is also
between all the .josts a filling of concrete
This would allow ample time for an au-
diencc to disperse before fire orignia-
ting on the stage could communicate
with the other parts Of the building.
We now feel confident that fire can
not well occur, and that the means OF
exit from the building are superior tt
those of most public buildings, in fact
cqualled by but few.
Yours, Respectfully.

THE ICE CROP.

Good Prospects for Haciag HcDty Of Ice
Nert Summer.
Ice cutting is now going on extensively
in this city, and the prospects are that
our dealers will secure a full supply from
our local streams, and not be required 10
receive any shipments Of Eastern ice
next summer. This will have the effect
of making the ice market easy, and en-
abling our dealers to furnish our people
with ice at extremely low rates durin.
the next season.
MeSsls. Walton & Brother have filled
their two large ice houses on Thatcher's
| NJ Meadow, and are now filling their Shell
pot house. They also have houses hold
ling about 1000 tons, at the foot of Tatnall
street, in which they usually store ice
received by vessels from the East, but
which they will fill this winter with VIII
mington ice. Messrs. Walton u Bro.
did not commence cutting until the latest
| freeze, and therefore all the ice they have
cut is from to II inches thick.
| The Arctic Ice Company, ,at their Park
i over Third street bridge, are now busilN
| iengaged in cutting excellent ice, and ~
inches thick. Their houses have capa-
city of 10000 tons, and it will require
several weeks more to fill them complete
| ly. Meanwhile the park affords excellent
skating, which is enjoyed by hundreds OF
lpeople each day.
Messrs. Pusey x Rice have filled their
1.-TWO Shellpot houses, containing 5000 tons
each, and their house at the foot OF Thlr-
lteenth street, which holds 300 tons max
ling 900 tons in all. As there is plenty u
good thick ice left, they are still cutting
and piling it up around the outside OF ne
HOUSES. This ice they will cover with
lsawdust and use first when the season
opens. About the first of next week they
will commence cutting at the Coatesville
dam, and filling the tiNc large houses
which they erected there few years ago

DARING ROBBRRY.--Lastn night, about
$50 O'Clock, some unknown parties broke
out the large pane of glass in the upper
window of VIM. Ii. Billany's hardware
store, No. pa Market street, and stole
two or three pocket knives, after which
they ran hastily away. Mr.. George Stein
icken, at his cigar store across the street,
heard the crash of the broken glass, and
ran to his door, when he saw small boy
draw his hand out Of the window and
then run down the street in company
with four men. He at once gave the
alarm, but the robbers fed rapidly out
second street and escaped. The glass,
which was valued at S75, was shattered
so badly tnat it will have to be replaced
by II new one. The robbers either kick.
ed the glass out or broke il with n club
and such proceeding at so early an hcul
in the evening was certainly bold ant
daring.
About 10 o'clock boy named VIM
McGran. commonly called James McGin
mis-, came to the hall to spend the night
and was searched by the Chief, who founC
the three stolen knives in his pockets. Nc
Gran confessed to the robbery, and sait
| that two other boys, Vim. Flanagan ant
James Faulkner were with him and help
ed him to commit the robbery. Tn,
other two were arrested, and this morp
ing all three had hearing aud were helC
in $500 bail each for there appearance a
Court. 1t is supposed that one or tw'
others were connected with the robber,
and they will be looked after.
