Concert at New Castle.

On Saturday evening the First Regi
ment Band of this city, together with ;
number Of their friends, proceeded t,
New Castle on the tug boat Taurus
Captain Heacock, commanding. TIL,
run was made in 40 minutes. Aftel
landing at New Castle, the members Of
the band formed in line and started
for the hall playing a lively tune Oh
their way up. The programme for the
occasion was similar to the one recently
rel dered in this city, and was perform
ed in an excellent mannel. The audi.
ence was medium sized one, owing to
tho fact that hon was going on az the
same time, and number Of the citi-
zens preferred to listen upon the outside
of the hall rather than pay the admis-
sion fee.
The baritone solo, by Smiley j. King,
the coronet solo by j. Wallsmith and
the Scotch airs by the band were all
rendered in a creditable manner and
were highly appreciated.
The piccolo solo by Mr.. Hyatt, the
leader of the band was a pleasing fea-
ture of the programme.
AT the conclusion of the programme
The band marched to the residence of
William Herbert, playing several ap.
airs, after which they tender
ed Hiett Graham a serenade and short
ly after il o'clock departed for home,
in this city at 1920, all well
pleased with the trip.
During the progress of concert at the
hall, one of the members was presented
with handsome boquet (?) from his

SUICIDE AT GEORGETO WN,
A wealthy Young Man TAX es Hi
Own Life while Temporarily In

The citizens of Georgetown, Del.
were thrown into an intense state of
excitement yesterday morning, upon
hearing that Isaiah S. Conoway, of that
place mad committed suicide. The de.
ceased was about 80 years of age and
did the rash act about o'clock in the
morning on the front porch Of the resi-
denCe of his ID other. 1t is supposed
that he was laboring under tenpora.
ry fit of insanity, when he repaired to
the porch at that early hour and delib-
erately shot himself, with fatal results.
The first shot fired was evidently aimed
at his heart, but the ball struck rib
and glanced of. The second shot
passed through the brain causing in
stant death. The family were awak-
eped by the shooting aud hastily re-
paired to the spot, and were terrified at
behoiding Mr.. Conoway lying on the
porch dead. A doctor and the coroner
were at once summoned and p jury en-
pane!ed who rendered verdict of sui.
eide during moment of temporary in
sanity. The affair has cast gloom
over the entire community, as Mr..
Conaway was well ard favorably
known. He was considered one of the
richest young men in Sussex county,
and was highly esteemed by all who
knew him.

James Martin, the Republican candi
date for sheriff, was born in Christians
Hundred, and is about 65 years of age
About eighteen years ago he removed tt
this city having been up to that time en-
gagged in farming. After his removal
he engaged in buying and selling cattle
and afterwards commenced butchering,
which he followed until few years
ago. Since relinquishing that business
he has again been in the cattle trade.
He has never held any office except that
OF collector of county taxes of Christi
ana Hundred. He received the nomi.
nation for sheriff in 1874, but was de-
feated by William II. Lambson by a
majority of 2S3. He was a candidate
for the nomination in 1880, but at that
time Philip Il. Clark, the present in
cumbent was chosen as the standard
bearer. Mr.. Martin was an earnest Union
man during the war, and has always
been strong and active Republican.
THE CANDIDATE FOR CORONER.
David II. Wingate, the candidate for
coroner, is also native of this State,
and is between fifty and sixty years OF
age. He is ship carpenter by trade,
but was for number of years on the
police force of this city. Mr.. Wingate
was an efficient officer, and it was
through his eXertions that the
gang of roughs known as the "Old
Church Rangers" were broken up. He
has been tor several years a Waterman
at the West yard of the p, w. & b. II.
r. Company, and has always been an
active working Republican.

SATURDAY NIGHT,
Mages's PaDsr Bag Establishment
Burnt out. Quick work OF the
F1rennen.

On last Saturday evening about 40
O'Clock, fire broke out in the frame
building at the Southeast corner Fifth
and Shipey streets, occupied by j.
M. Magee as a paper bag establish.
ment. There were conflicting reports
in regard to tho origin Of fire, but Mr..
Magee says that it was occaSlOned by
the explosion of a coal oil lamp. The
contents being G light or cumbusti-
bic nature, scarcely minute elapsed
before the whole interior was in fam es.
Some few things were taken out
and removed to a place of safety. The
alarm was struck from box u, in front
of the City Hall at twenty two minutes
of eight o'clock and in less than three
minutes afterwards the Water Witch
Fire Company had a plug stream
playing into the burning building.
This is quick work, and helps confirm
the oft repeated assertion that Will
mington can beast of the best fire de-
partment in the country.
A few more well directed streams
soon dissipated all fears Of the fire
spreading to the adjoining properties,
but even after it was thought to
be fully extinguished, it burst out
through the roof. A fireman made an
opening with an axe, and stream of
water soon drowned out the last vestige
the of devouring element. The stock
which was valued at 5000 is atotal loss,
ior that which was not destroyed by
fire is ruined by the water.
There was no insurance on the
stock, and the loss falls heavy upon
Mr.. Magee, as all he had was invested
in the business. The building which is
one and a half stories high, belongs to
a man in Philadelphia, and the damage
to it will not exceed $25 or $50.

About 3. 80 o'clock Mr.. Emmons com.
Menced lis argument, and urged upon
the jury the consideration of the follow.
ing points of law
/. That it is sufficient for the testator
to know what he is about in order TO
mako valid will.
2. That undue influence is such as he
is too weak to resist.
He spoke for some time, and was fol-
lowed by Mr.. Higgins for the contes.
tants. He reviewed the testimony of the
witnesses, and Contended that at the
time the will was made the testator
was blind and speechless, with his mind
greatly impaired, and not in fit con-
dition to make will. Mr.. Higgins
was very severe on Daniel Mulherin,
and said that according to his theory,
the sicker and weaker Doran became,
the more capable he was to make a will,
provided he gave half of his property to
him. He said that it was not Michael
Doran's will but the will of Daniel
Mulherin. Before he had concluded,
the Court adjourned until this morning.

A SMALL POX SlARE.
A Man Escapes From His Friends
ana ROains around the City.

About half past Blk o'clock yesterd ay
morning, word was left at the Police
station that the services Of the police
were needed in the vicinity of Sherman
and Lombard streets. Three valiant
officers started for the place, filled with
thoughts of the brave and heroic deeds
they would perform. On the way
down, revolvers, billies and nippers
were inspected, and found as usual in
perfect order. When the trio arrived
IN the locality, they saw a number of
colored persons anxiously looking out
OF their second story windows, when
all at once one of them called out "heah
he comes" and in went every head,
and down went every window. The
officers looked, and sure enough the
'he" was approaching, and proved to
be man who was crazy with the con-
fluent small pox. His head was swollen
to twice its natural size, and his face,
neck and hands, were covered with
pustules. His dress consisted of
pair of drawers, ard an undershirt.
AS he drew nearer to the officers,
they quickly organized themselves into
a meeting, and after passing a resolution
that it WAS the duty of the executive
officer of the Board of Health to attend
to such cases, immediatly adjourned
around the nearest corner, and hastily
examined if their last vaccination had
taken. But alas the executive officer
was not there, and as the man roamed
around the streets, and went from house
to house trying to effect an entrance, it
became apparent that something must
be done, or there would be possibility
of the whole neighborhood being in.
fected with the loathsoms diseases.
Two of the officers started off to hunt
for some one to do that something, and
left the other officer to watch the move
ments Of the man.
They succeeded in finding colored
man, who having had the disease had |
very little fear of it. He agreed for a ]
consideration, to take the man to the |
hospital, and about 7o'clock started |
with him for that place. 1t was ascer
tanned afterwards that the man had

part of the city, sometime during the

A MID.NIGHT BLAZE.
A Narrow Escape From a Serious
Fire.

Shortly after midnight last night a
fire was discovered in the cigar store o.
Fred Fischers, northeast corner
Front and King streets. The fire was
first discovered by she inmates Of the
house who were awakened by a large
amount of smoke in their bed rooms.
They Immediately repaired down stairs
and discovered barrel full of cigars,
on fire. The cigars, which had been
newly made, had been put in this bar
rel, and light placed under them, in
order to dry them.
By some means the barrel caught
fire, but was luckily discovered and
thrown into the streets, in time to stay
the spread of the flames. The cigars
in the barrel, however, were destroyed, ,
entailing q loss Of about $50 IN which
there was no insurance. An alarm
was sounded, to which the fremen
promptly responded, but their services
were not needed. The occurrence
created quite all excitement at the
time.
