MOTING DAY.

MOVING DAY.
A Busy Day In Dslas0ars-.B1si'sss Re-
xnovals IN this City.
To-day In the city Of Wilmington and in
deed all over the entire State of Delaware,
will be scene of unusual activity and bus
tie; there will this morning be stirring
with the first dawn of the morning seen,
the busy housewife to take last look at
the familiar corners Of the place which has
been the habitation for year for the hus-
band and children; the children, too, will
feel as though this is holiday, and will be
up somewhat earlier than usual, ready to
roll up the first bed and tumble it down
the stairs, and the husband will be re-
minded that he must crawl out Of bis warm
bed, at least an hour before the accustomed
time, to run around two hours before he
gets any breakfast in order to procure
furniture car, and man to help move the
stove.
The furniture car Of course can't come
until this afternoon, and the man to take
down the stove will be ready exactly at
10 o'clock The husband then goes home
with borrowed screw driver to take down
the bedsteads, but finds that his energetic
wife and children have already performed
that work, and now have various articles of
furniture displayed upon the sidewalk, like
an auction room front. They of course
thought that the car would be along, and
that they would be on time; but the father
says 1t will not come till late, 80 the boys
bounce away to help Mrs. Jones move her
old cat ank kittens, while the patient parent
demands his breakfast. He is Of course
informed that the fire has just gone out,
but If he will wait, the coffee can soon be
heated. He decides always to wait, and
while he enjoys the cold meats and nearly
cold coffee, his wife torments him to be
quick and help get the bureau down.
He is soon ready to help, and then makes
the discovery that the bureau will have to
be taken out the window. A rope is pro-
cured, pane Of glass Is broken in cutting
the sash out of the window frame, but at
last everything is ready, and they lower
away to tho pavement below. The rope al
ways breaks on such occasions, and some
little boys who are standing directly under
tho bureau, get their backs broke. At this
stage of affairs, the heavens are overcast,
and soon 1t begins to rain
There that will do, said we TO the indus
