The Oakland Election.

The city election at Oakland was
held last Monday. The " disorlerly y
town mentioned in the petition sent to
the last Legislature begging foi incor-
poration was as quiet and as orderly
as is usually Quaker meeting. No
one declared war; no one put on war
paint and declared himself "chief !" all
entitled to vote went to the polls and
voted, and the day was decided in favor
OF those opposed to incorporation by
an average ma jority of 3S votos. Fol-
lowing are the names Of the officers
elect: Trustees. r. Redman, Wm.
Hargan, James Hazelton, ]. G. Young.
L. G. Wheeler; George Set
tie; treasurer-P. Renhaven; marshal
Alex. Hobert. The friends of incor-
poration polled the large number of
fifteen votes. Eight of the voters were
candidates for Office, and in voting for
each other did not receive two votes
apiece Had the candidates in question
voted for those on the opposite side as
is usual, some one man would not have
received vote, and seven would have
only received one! The vote speaks
for itself-right here we admit we can
say nothing worse for the candidates
on the incorporation ticket.

A Slight Dssturbauce.

This morning at ten o'clock slight
disturbance was created in the neigh
horhood of Third and French streets.
1t appears that q man named T. l..
Hawkins. who resides on West street
between Second and Third, used bad
language toward the son Of Mr.. Crabb,
csuntryman. Mr.. Crabb, ST., did
not like this, and with wild gesticuls-
tions and officer Gutchmer at his heels
he rushed down Third street in pur-
suit. The delinquent was ovsrtaken at
French street, but as the officer had no
warrant, no action was taken in the
case. Mr.. Eawkins then used very
sarcastic language toward Mr.. Crabb,
when that individual walked away.
Hawkins gave the officer his address
case he should be wanted. He then
passed down French street with some
friends who were about to make q
journey on an awaiting train.

WILMINGTON InsrIrUTE
The Library % - moved - TIE
second ateFy.


The Library % - moved % the
second story.
The stockholders Of the Institute are
again considering the advisability Of
removing the library and reading room
from the lower floor and placing II in
the second story, converting the large
hall iuto room suitable for that pur-
pose. The idea Is to make an entrance
on Eighth street, cutting . large door
way through the wall and extending
the stsps through that portion now
occupied a. the directors room.
This would leave the market street
hallway at the disposition of the di-
rectors who intend to convert It into .
large store room, for which purpose II
Is admirably adapted. When the
reading room Is thus changed, the Va
cant room will be converted into a lee
ture room, which will be something
sadly needed and which want has been
partly satisfied by the Masonic Hall
company. The advantage Of as lecture
room in the Institute would bemany , the
chief one being its position on the ground
which makes 1t easy Of access.
From the new store rent Of about
$500 year is expected, which will be
quite an increase to the rental of the
Association and help swell its ex-
chequer, which is fast becoming de-.
pleted.
When the improvement is to be made
has not been settled upon, but from
the manner in which the plans are be.
ing canvassed and the obvious neces.
sity Of their early execution It may bs
p esumed that the time will not be
long distant.

nouncing to the readers of the New

positively been sold to company Of
gentlemen from Wilmington, Philadel-
phia and Lancaster, and representing
great wealth. We are not a liberty to
mention their names at present, but
the sale is a bona fde, and from orr
personal knowledge of the parties we
feel safe in predicting that they will
carry the enterprise to a successful
issue. 1t is not their intention to run
the machine shop, which they will en-
deavor to dispose of to other parties,
but the rolling mill will be started just
so soon as it can be gotten ready, and
at least seventy men will be employed
from the start. This will be cheering
news not only to those who will find
employment, but to the entire commun.
ity, as it means the circulation of
large additional amount Of money every
