A LIVELY CASE.
Seven Little BOys tried last Night
for Stone Throwing, Cusstng and
Kicking mp o Fight.

The small boy was decidedly in Ae
majority a. Police Court last evening,
and at the opening of services the iu-
terror would have passed muster for
the anniversary of an infant Sunday
School class, SO sedate and solemn
looking were the little fellows as they
roasted on corners of chairs or hung on
the dock ratings, and then his Honor
would have passed muster elegantly as
an A | superintendent.
After calling names enough to start
a comfortable sized directory the Chief
ordered Peter Geisle, John Dougherty,
James O'Neill, Michel Stanner and
John McGran into the dock.
The charge against the boys was that
of disorderly conduct, and the first wit
ness, Mrs. Elmira Grier, testified that
the boys had followed her children
home from school on Friday evening
and threw stones in the yard after
them, and even climbed over tne fence
into the yard. She had ordered them
away but their reply was a yolley OF
brickbats, old shoes, stones, etc.
Margaret Meany had seen the bonn
bardment but did not see the boys as
they were on the opposite side of the
fence.
Aswell Grier, aged IL years, who
had been acting as sort of prosecuting
attorney, coaching witnesses, ETC., then
picked up the book, and when His
Honor asked him where he would go if
he swore falsely, Aswell replied to HI.
He was then qualified, and gave a
graphic description of the trials and
tribulations of school -boys life. His
life had been made miserable by the
actions of the gang in the dock, and
he also described the bombardment OF
Friday evening.
Herman Grier, brother of the former
witness, also told about the old shoes,
the brickbats, ETC., and added, they
called me hard names, and its not very
pleasant.
This ended the testimony, but all
through the hearing the little heads in
the dock would pop up and the ques.
tion would be asked each witnes, 'Did
you see me throw that stone p
His Honor lectured the boys soundly
for their rowdyism and held each Of
them in $l00 to keep the peace.

Mules ON q Rampage.

Mr.. Homer Barry residing at 504 w.
Fifth street, is extremely partial to
baked beans and two or three days ago
he stepped in to the wholesale Commits
sion store of w. f. Brick & Co., ard
purchased couple of bushels for win
ter use. Mr.. Brick sent the beans
around to Mr.. Barry's residence in a
wagon drawn by couple of mules, but
while the driver was unloading the
beans, the mules attracted by pass
ing carriage followed it up Fifth to
Washington, by which time they had
increased their pace to a run. Turning
down Washington street, they went
faster and faster until they reached
Fourth, when mule like one of them
tried to haw off down Fourth towards
West, and the other persisted in pur-
suing a straightforward course down
Washington street.
However they compromised by run
ming the wheels of the wagon against
the iron lamp post breaking it off close
to the ground, the shattered pieces Of
the lamp falling into the wagon. The
hybrid animals as if pleased with their
success in smashing lamp-posts struck
be line in the direction of lsaac.J.
Nichoison's awning posts at the corner
of Third and Washington.
Mr.. N. hearing the approaching rum
pus ran out just in time to see the ami
mails with eilated nostrils and flashing
eyes, bearing down upon him. 1t was
but the thought of second that set
him to paving the air with his hands
and feet, and yelling at the mules that
induced them to change their course
aero IS TO the other corner where they
came plump against Joseph Bring
hurst's stable which happily withstood
the shock. One mule pulled out Third
street and the other down Washington,
but with their united strength they
couldn't bulge that stable, and while
struggling to remove it, the driver, the
white Of whose eyes could be seen two
squares off, caught up aud captured the
mules. Strange to say they were not
hurt nor was anything broken but a
hitching strap. Dr.. Anderson, at the
corner of Fourth and Washington, ran
out and plugged the severed gas pipe,
but since that affair happened there
has been no light at that corner, and
the citizens are inquiring whether Mr..
Brick or the City Council is to put up
another lamp, or whether they are to
be left in darkness.

WILMINGTON, DEL, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 2l, 1873
OF paying for bests in proportion TO the
sugar that is in themA

OF paying for beets in proportion 10 the
sugar that is in themA
The beet sugar manufacturing season
generally lasts about three months or
10 days in the year, but it is not ex
pected that our Wilmington company,
as this is but year of experiment,
will keep their manufactOry running
more than about go days or until they
use up the bects they have engaged.
We ware informed that the pulp of the
beet after the juice is extracted, which
comes from the operation, pressed into
cakes, is in great demand by dairymen
to feed their cattle upon, and orders
have been received beforehand for all
the pulp cakes that the company can
possibly have on hand all winter. We
are inclined to the belief that the Will
mington beet sugar manufactory enter
prise will be a success, and in wishing
it SUCCESS we are certain we but reiter-
ate the sentiment of the people of Will
mington.

which the writer infers that the pros

able for the work. He applies similar
reasoning to the matter OF iron railroad
bridges. II these statements be cor
rect. AHerica must soon become the

Mr.. Springer on Ohio.

WASHINGTON, Oct. l9.-Representa-
tive Springer, of Illinois, in an inter,
view published in the "Evening STAR
says that the defeat in Ohio was as
overwhelming as it was unexpected
and that its effect will be very bad. he
has recently seen General Ewing, who
was confident up to the last moment
and who thought that the Democrats
certainly could not lose the Legislature.
Mr.. Springer resorts to the customary
Democratic expedient of insisting that
the election was carried because the
Republicans spent more money. Every
purchasable vote, Mr.. Springer says,
was bought by the Republicans. Gu
riously enough, he adds almost in the
same breath that a great many Demo-
Gratis voted the Republican ticket.

Marriage Bells,

On Tuesday morning, long before the
appointed hour, fully five hundred inyit-
ed guests and friends assembled in the
Second Presbyterian church, of this
place, to witness the marriage of Miss
Lizzie G. Miles, to Rev. ". T. L. Kieffer,
at present pastor of the Presbyterian
church at Churchville, Hartford county,
Md. Previous to the arrival of the we'd
ding party, the audience was entertained
with choice selections on the organ, by
Miss Lizzie Smead.
The bridal party entered the church
promptly at the hour chosen, preceded by
the ushers. Following the ushers came
Miss Jennie Stuart, of Carlisle, attended
by Mervin J. Eckels, of Silver Spring,
then Miss Mary Kieffer, the groom's sis
ter, attended by Rev. W. T. Ledwith, of
Gap, Lancaster county, and last came
the bride and groom. Arriving at the al
tar they were met by Rev. Geo. Nor
cross, who made the twain one. The
ceremony was impressive, and the re-
sponses were distinct and earnest. After
prayer, invoking the Divine blessing, the
wedding party Immediately left the
church, and proceeded to the home of the
bride, where the reception was held. At
ter a time spent in a social way, the COM
pany was invited to partake Of the large
hearted hospitality of the parents Of the
bride, who had made ample preparation
for the inner man, and the good things
of this life were dispensed with a gener-
ous hand. The bountifully laden tables,
with all their wealth of floral decoration,
half hiding the luscious fruits, confec-
tons and richly decorated cakes, were
made the scene of merriment and good
cheer, and everything was indeed Merry
as a wedding bell"
Miss Miles was indeed one of our most
estimable young ladies-ever active and
earnest i'll doing good, and few persons
can lay claim to as many warm friends,
In the Sabbath school and church she
will be especially missed. She was the
recipient OF many warm testimonials o
affection in the shape Of costly and ser
viceable presents.
The time up to the arrival of the IN
D. M. train was occupied in congratula
tons and leave taking, when they de
parted for L~ewisburg, where they vii
spend some days in visiting the groom
friends, after which they will settle dow
to the realities. of life at Chdrehville
They bear with them sincere wishes 70
great success and happiness in life .@CAR
