THE END OF 4 ROBBERY.

The house at George c., Robinson at 4.h
and Union streets, was entered by thieves
on the night Of last Thursday svesk,s snd
was robbed Of some clothing : valusble
gold watch and chain. and several othw
articles. A colored man " The naaas of
sewell starkley WAS arrested BY Officer
Brickol, with ssme clothing on him., and

given hearing. 6tarkley. who had been
brought over from New Castle appeared %
witness.
starkley testified that on the day Of the
robbery, he met Crumlish, who, asked bin
to 20 with him 10 the evening to Mr.. Rob
inson's, where he WAS going TO collect some
money. That night about II O'Clock,
Crumlish came to him Just a. he was goiog
to bed, and coaxed him TO 60 along, which
he finally did very reluctantly. They went
to the house, and Crumlish went up On the
porch and began trying to open the door.
etarkey demonstrated With him but to no
avail, and went outside and waited until
the house was entered and gone through.

A NEEDED IMPROTEMENr

The present is about as opportune time.
as any that can be chosen, to call attention,
to utter want Of sewerage to this city. The
best authorities all concur 10 this cenclu-
sion. thst iu an undrained city, or one like
ours depending almost solely on surface
face drainage, that day will come when
mslarial fever must become epsdemic there,
II the csuse be not removed. The entire
sewerage of the city percolates into the
soil, and there generates poison. II is 9
fact which any resident Of parts of the city,
supposed to be most favorably located,
will voueh, that often the smell from sinks,
which discharge their contents into q we'll,
become 20 bad that various DEVICES are used
TO abate the sickeniAg nuisance. While the
city Is small, we'll devised plan might be
commenced to be gradually carried out.
There would DO little use in putting In
sewers In particular spots, begin as any en-
gineer will advise at the proper place, and
work gradually on. There is no reason
why our city should not be one of the
healthiest upon the globe. It wants no
| endowment from God or. nature, mans
work alone 10 needed to make malarial dis.
eases entirely foreign to Wilmington. We
know that our taxes are high, and the abil.
ity to pay Is limited, but II our city Wal
properly drained, we would show such I
bill of health, ss would invite residenrl
Ifrom every part Of the country.

A SPECULATLNG CORRESPOND
ENT

A EPECULATLNG CORRESPOND-
( EMIT.
There is slowed away In some corner Of
this city, . special correspondent OF the
Philsdelphia Times, who ia certainly .
genius in his line. Some time ago, he
gravely informed that Journal, that McCsul-
10y would lead for the Democratic Mayor
atty nomination. Well to show how near
he was right, his fsvorite polled three quar-
tsrs Of per cent Of the vote, or 30 votes in .
poll OF $500. He now, ss soberly, tells
the Times in yesterdays letter, that the
proceedings of the last Democratic State
Convention at Dover, was preface to the
National Convention in 1880. That Sena-
tor Bayard is then to be the candidate Of
the Democracy, for tho Presidency. With
Mr.. Bayard's record on the financial ques-
tion, it Is extremely improbable that he
could carry Delaware with the Convention
for him. Let no one mistake tho fact that the
contest for Delegates to Dover was limited
to two districts Of the city Of Wilmington,
that seemed to have been selected as an
arena, of contest, and that In the largest
vote polled for years. Mr.. Bayard won In
one OF them by three votes, in the other by
ten, ard that the first one was carried BY
clean, square lying, and deceit. We &c
not charge that Senator Bsyard was privy
to it In any way whatsoever, as We b.
lieve him incapable Of being party to any
oct, either trickery, or deceitful. The
truth is, that Mr.. Bsyards FRIENDS depre
Gated any resolutions at the Convention
and that was the district svowsl here
Those passed bar, the evident trace Of com
promise, and complied VITA the fact, thai
although Mr.. Bsyard went to Dover, ht
was not invited to address tho convention
as It WAS certain to create opposition.
In all probability, this article will be an
swered, . Ia Kearney, by the Senators
organ, but low abuse hurts no one.
The States where Mr.. BayArd would te
strong, are committed to tho Greenbach
Policy, and In no political possibility, woult
they accept him as their standard bearer
It Was said Of Burke, "that he was to font
! of tho right to follow the expedient". Thi
may also bs applied to Mr.. Bsyard, as y
his own standard Of right. We believe hin
10 be woefully wrong In his financial policy
he thinks otherwise. and he will, 4 hs b

flowers were frozen and corn was killed.
Frost, ice and snow were common in
June. Almost every green thing was kill
ed, and fruit was nearly all destroyed.
Snow fell to the depth of several inches
in New England. July was accom-
panied with frost and ice. On the 5th
ice was formed of the thickness of win
dow glass in New York, New England,
and parts of Pennsylvania, and corn
was nearly all destroyed in certain sec
tiOns. In August ice formed half an
inch thick. Corn was so frozen that a
great deal was cut down and dried for
fodder. Very little ripened in the New
England and Middle States. Farmers
were obliged to pay 81 and SIS bushel
for corn of 1915 for seed for the next
springs planting. The first two weeks
of September were mild; the balance
of the month was cold, with frost and
ice formed quarter Of an inch thick.
October was more than usually cold,
with frost and ice. November was cold
and clustering, with snow enough for
good sleighing. December was quite
mild and comfortable.

The ''intelligent juryman" came to
the front in a libel case at st. Louis the
other day when the judge told the jury
to retire to the jury room and return a
sealed verdict. Two of them interpret
ed this as permission to go home and
didn't appear until next morning, when
the twelve were locked up to prevent
further misunderstanding. At San
dusky, Ohio, in recent case, a jury
man who couldn't read or write got a
friend to prepare him lot of ''yes"
and ''no" ballots, putting one set in one
vest pocket and the other in another,
so that he could tell which way he was
voting. But he got so absorbed in the
testimony that when he came to vote
''yes' he forgot which pocket held the
tight ballots and kept on voting ''no''
against the solid affirmative of his as
sociates, until one of them found out
how the matter stood and the vote was
made unanimous.

Much objection against the proposed
elevated railroads in New York was
based on the idea that they would
prove unsightly, but it now is said to
be the general opinion that when COM
pleted they will add much to the fine
appearance of New York. The plans
for the stations submitted and approved
are said to be remarkably picturesque,
the stairs by which the ascents and
descents are to be made are wide and
handsome, and the finish is to be
modern, thorough and artistic.
