The Gr0gth of the Cdady Business
No stronger evidence of the continued
and steady increase of the prosperity
of this city can be adduced than the
marvellous growth of the candy manu-
featuring business. A few years ago,
the only candy establishment in the
city of any consequence was Mr..
David Lemons, No. 233 Market street,
which was quite an extensive concern.
Now Mr.. Lemon has a very large es-
tablishment No. 1T Market street, ex-
tending back whole square, operated
by steam, and enjoying an extensive
patronage. In addition, Messrs. Bark
ley & Bro. have large steam estab
lishment at the S w. corner of Fourth
and French streets, while the manu-
factories of James Morrow, on Mar
ket street above Second, and Frank
Macan, N. L. corner of Seventh and
Tatnall streets, turn out large quaint
ties of candy by hand. There are also
few other establishments where
candy is manufactured to small ex
tent. altogether the candy business
in Wilmington has grown to almost
marvellous proportions and the
"sweet tooth" of the entire Peninsula
and the surrounding country is sup
piled from the establishments of this
city.
Obtained His LicenSe.-A feeling of
general surprise extended through this
CITY when it became rumored that John
Fehrenbach, proprietor of the we'll
known saloon at Fourth and French
streets, had failed to receive a license
at the last term of court, and the impress
sion prevailed that the action of the
court was the result of some misappre-
bension or inadvertanL error. 1t row ap-
pears that the omission to grant his IL
cense occurred amid the hurry and pres'
sure of the accumulated business of the
last day of the term OF court, and thai
fine error had been corrected and the
license duly granted. This correction o.
what was considered a grave mistake
has received the general approval of the
nnblic and of Mr.. Fehrenbach's hun
dreds of friends, who visited his popular
saloon-which had been reopened-l
evening, and showered their hearties
congratulations upon him over his gooc
fortune.
A LARGE MARKET.-The avenues
: leading from the country into this city
were lined this morning with wagons O
all descriptions, the occupants OF which
were on their way to market. The mar
ket this afternoon and tomorrow will bt
, an unusually large one, as the line o
WAGONS extended from Front to Nintf
street. Persons who desire to purchase
articles for Christmas should do SO to
morrow as there will be no market er
Tuesday.
SPECIAL NOTICE. To dealers and oonssun

The Play Last Evening.

The Agnes Walace-Villa troupe had an
excellent house at the town hall last even
ing, to witness their presentation Of "Cin-
derella' and "Maple Cottage" The bur
lesque went as elashingly as ever with Sam
Villa in hi, great part of Clorinda. His
falsetto songs and admirable acting brought
down The house. The support was very
good, Miss Deshon in particular sustaining
her part with spirit. The Goat duet" done
by herself and Villa was tumultuously ap-
plauded.
"Maple Cottage" is an excellent acting
play, having good plot, plenty of action,
some excellent characters and not much
talk. 1t was well rendered. Agnes Wal
lace as Maud Templeton carried off the hon.
ors, acting with power, yet with ease and
grace. She did the last tcene in the thirl
act particularly we'll If her voice were a
trifle less worn she would be very fine
emotional actress. Mr. Villa left his bur-
letque airs behind and played Harry easily
and we'll Miss Deshon was capital
Helen, and Mits Newman and Mr.. Holmes
supplied abundance Of fun for the piece.
This evening the company play the
1.-TWO Off-uns,' in which Sam Villa bur-
lesques Miss Claxton's great part Of Louise,
aud "Frou Frou," the celebrated French
society play, with Agnes Wallace as Frou
Frou. They should have crowed house.

Two Irreconcilable Conditions.

Debility and health are irreconcllable condi-
tons. Weakly people, that is to say people
who lack the vitality requisite for vigorous
discharge of each and all OF the bodily func-
tons, are invariably afflicted with some,
though it may be a trIfllpg, disorder OF the sys-
TEN. Atony, or a want OF nervous and muscu-
lar vigor, is accompanied by poverty of the
blood and leanness. A certain way to over
come 1t and prevent the aggravated maladies
to which 1t must ultimately lead is to use Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which promote diges.
ton and assimilation OF the food, and thus are
the means OF furnishing the body with sup
ply of blood OF quality essential to Its proper
nourshment. Inauguration through the instiu-
mentality OF the matche ss tonic protects the
feeble from host OF bodily ills which lurk In
ambush for the debilitated. The Bitters are an
article which It is most desirable to keep con-
stantly on hand.
