AnAceomnodating RurgIar.

Yesterday morning as DR.. Snitaher and
his family residing at 20g West Ninth
street, began to stir about for the day
they found that they had been visited
during the night by an unknown visitor,
who was so conSiderate as not TO disturb
tho rest of any member of the family.
An investigation showed that the bur
slar had taken the trouble to bore hole
through side shutter through which
he thrust his hand and slipped back a
bolt, when he had no trouble afterwards
entering. He had evidently gone
through the house to the third story as
the Coachman'S keys were taken and
were found in the morning lying on the
pavement. Some medical instruments
had also been removed TO another part
of the house, but nothing whatever so
far as II thorough investigation showed.
What could have been the object of the
thief in acting So could not be divincd
unless he had SuperSttiOuS dread
OF doctors and vamosed as soon as he
found that he was near one. The
doctor says, in referring to the matter:
"lf any one feels elsirresistably compelled
TO enter our residence at unreasonable
hours, we certainly appreciate the quiet
and transformations method of the pro.
ceedlngs of last night"

LABOR TROUBLES.
Wilmington Brlcklay ers Dsman d.
Ing Increased wages.

The bricklayers of this city held q
meeting last night at the saloon of Con.
rad Keller, northwest corner of Fourth
and Shipley streets. About forty
workmen were present The meeting
was called to order by Theodore Pratt;
Charles SOlloway was made President
and VI. McCloSkey, Secretary.
After the object Of the meeting had
been stated the following was unani-
m0uSly adopted as the sense of the
meeting:
Bosses AND BUILDERS, TAKE No
TICE.--At IA stated meeting of the jour
neymcn bricklayers of Wilmington, the
following was respectfully passed;
WHEREAS, The demand for brcklay-
ers in this city is great at present, and
we considering that the wages we re-
Ceiye are not equal TO the labor we give
in return, therefore,
BE it enacted, That we establish the
permanent rase of wages at s. IL day
aud give the bosses and builders until
May 10 to consider our just demand.
After this was done the Secretary was
Inspected to send Il copy of the above to
every boss in the city.
1t was decided to make the aSsocia-
ton Il prominent one for the protection
of the DricklayerS' interest and the fol
lowing committee were appointed to
select room for meeting in the future:
MI. McClosk"v, Theodore Pratt and
George Z. Monck, Jr
The bricklayerS declare that they are
earnest in this movement but do not
anticipate any trouble. That made Il
statement 10 the effect ihat the bosses
only admit the justice of paying the
workmen more wages. There are about
one hundred bricklayerS in the city, and
the rate of wages Sunitorm. The pres
cnt rate is the same as that Of last sum
mer, and ranges from s., - toSI,OO per
day. Very few Of the men, however,
receive this last mentioned sum.
The object ofthc men in giving the
bosses until May 10 to consider their de
mand in consideratc move to enable
the bosses to finish all cheap jobs, that
they may begin anew on contracts
which will have to be made at All ad-
vanc1d ratc.
