Fire at McLear & Kendalls Carriage
Works,

About 12.Ol o'clock on Friday night last.
fire broke out in the extensive carriage
works of Messrs. McIear 4 Kendall, corner
of Ninth and King streets. Wilmington.
Every effort was put forth to subdue the
fire, which began in the third story, but
without avail, and the entire main building
was destroyed with = large portion of the
stock Oh hand. About fifty of the large
stock of finished carriages We're saved and IL
small portion of the large stock OF materials
The loss is estimated at about S105, 900, as
near as can de calculated and the insur-
although it is impossible to get at that mat
ter inaSmuch as the amount of stock saved
is not exactly known.
Among the articles destroyed were / car
riases boxed and ready to ship to Australia.
The factory was one of the largest in the
city, and gave employment to 80 men and
boys. 1t was Il brick building, three stories
in height, with a frontage of 90 feet on King
street, and extending 225 feet in depth to
French street 1t was built III 1864 by John
Merrck, who, after carrying on carriage
building for two years disposed OF the bust
ness to Henry &. McLear and Casper Ken
dali who have since conducted 4 success
full and constantly increasing business.
They supply a large demand for carriages OF
all kinds in the southern, Middle and West
ern States, and maintain an extensive re-
pository on Broad street above Race, Phila-
del phia, and another ut Charleston, South
Carolina.
The firm have already secured the old
Huntzberger building AT Water and Market
streets, where they will resume operations
at once.

A Liberal Prize for Big Pumpkins.

The Cecil Agricultural Society, among its
many liberal offers of prizes, will propose a
scale of premiums for the largest pumpkins
grown from mammoth seed. The premiums
will be $1,000 for the heaviest, $500 for the
second, $500 for the third, $500 for the
/4th, S1.00 for the fifth, and SOC. for the 9th,
exhibited by the grower. Mr.. a. w. Mitch
ell now has ready for distribution the seed,
and sufficient will be given to each appli-
cant to.plant two or three hills. Persons
living at distance who cannot make it con-
venient to call upon Mr.. NJ. will receive the
seed by mail by enclosing to him a penny
stamp to prepay return postage. All who
intend to compete in this class,-and every
one who possibly can make it suit should
do so,-should secure the seed at once as
the sooner it is planted now the better. This
species of pumpkin grows to an enormous
size, individual specimens having reached
the dimensions of flour barrel.

An Odd Case.

One day last week Mr.. Stephen II. Ford
of Sassafras Neck captured 4 swapping
turtle weighing 27l3 lbs, which he deter
mined to present to an Elkton friend fond
of such reptiles. For this purpose he placed
the creature in a bag and depoSiting the bag
in the bottom of his carriage started for
Elkton. Upon his arrival here he drew
forth the bag to exhibit his queer fish when
to his iismay he discoy cred that the bird
had flown, or rather that the snapper had
eaten the bottom out of the bag and de-
camped out the rear end of the carriage.
OF course all hopes of snapper soup at once
vanished. The following day as Mr.. Henry
Wood of this town was driving home from
Sassatras Scck he met q large Swapping
turtle toiling along upon the road appar-
emily making for Bohemia river n half mile
or so distant. Mr.. Woed kindly took up
the tramp and gave him a ride the only
change being that he brought him towards
Elktnn instead of taking him towards the
river. When lie Feaahed home lie weighed
his prize and found 1t to tip the scale at iuSi
u y hs, the exact weight of Mr.. Ford's fish
The question now is is this last capture Mr..
Ford's escaped turtle, or is it another of eX-
actiy iha salle size. This c0nuudruuI now
awaits solution. The snapper is stub
bornly silent upon the subject.

Death of Jos. F. Mack.

This gentleman who was a son-in-law of
Joseph Booth, Esq, of this town died at his
residence, No. 1916 South 18th street Phila-
dephia, on Friday, the Goth ulto., after an
illness of only about two weeks, of typhoid
fever. Less than month ago the deceased
visited friends here, and at that time was
apparently in perfect health, and with
promise of as long life as any one. He was
% years of age. Three years and half ago
he was married to Mary j. daughter of Jos.
and Barbara Ann Booth of this place who
survives to mourn hisearly DEATH He leaves
also two children, Il son and daughter
Mr.. Mack was engaged in the dry goods
business in connection with the house of
Jno. Huggard & Co., importers of Straw
berry street, Philadelphia, in whose conf
dence he held a high place. He was a men,
ber of the "Royal Arcanum" and also OF
the order of Odd Fellows, both of which
organizations were represented at the
funeral service The funeral took place on
Wednesday last the remains being deposited
in vault in Mt. Moriah Cemetery for
future burial.

The Reason Why.

Mr.. EpIroE In your last issue of
lh@ Wig. you ask what crime has Cfes-
well Post committed that caused it to
drop its name and be the only Post in the
state known by its number, &c. There
is a law of the Grand Army of the Re
public, that torbids any Post to be named
after a living man, and while it can be
called after living man, bear his name
on its banners, Nc.. it cannot be SO called
or named i'll its charter. or in other words
officially. Such is the reason for our Post
being known as No. 10 only. When it
was organized. and it is pardonable
to say when the largest number of soldiers
were present than for the last 10 years,
it was decided unanimously that the
name should be left blank in the charter,
and be known to us as Creswel Post
NO. 10.
We would be glad indeed to name our
Post: but we can't kill Mr.. Creswell. nor
do it while he lives, which he bids fair to
do for years, as we hope and pray he may.
This much, Mr.. Editor. we can say, that
if a single member of Post No. 10 sur
wives him, his name will he inserted in the
charter, and be officially known as Cres
well Post Nc. 10 as it is now known
to us, and as Posts are now named for
Generals Grant. Sheridan, Sherman,
Hayes and others, being known by their
numbers only. except to their members
and i'll their immediate locality.

Publishing the Laws.

Coy. Hamilton had not yet acted ON the
! Public General Laws to be published III the
newspapers, and in view OF the ateness of
the time it is doubtful if they will be pub
liShed. The Governor thinks publication in
book form sufficient and will direct the
printer to 90 ahead now and complete the
volume of acts of 1882. and if any more are
signed subsequently they can be issued in a
supplementary volume. Under the act ap-
proved May 3, the Governor and attorney
general are to select the laws to he publish
| ed, and the President of the Senate and
Speaker of the House the newspapers that
are to publish them. Mr.. Williams and
Mr. Keiholtz have already decided on the
list of papers (with the exception Of one
county, that are to receive the 5000 for each
county and the s., 100 in the city of Balti-
more, SIG, 900 in all. The list is as follows:

1t is understood that if the Governor does
not indicate the laws that are to be publish

tary of the Senate uLder the old law, Will
pick out the general laws approved prior to

Horse and Carriage Stolen.

On Tuesday night last, valuable horse
and buggy We're stolen from the stable of
Rothwell jackson, at Whitaker's mills,
Principle. Upon discovery of the theft on
Wednesday morning, Mr.. jackson, the
owner of the horse, and Mr.. Joseph Gorrell,
the owner of the buggy and harness, started
out in search of their lost property, the for
mer taking the up river road and the latter
going toward North East. Mr.. Gorrel came
upon the track of the team between Prin-
cipio and Nerth East-being able TO iden-
tity it by certain peculiaritieS, and fol-
lowed it to Mechanics Valley. There, he
lost all trace of it. He then came 10 this
place and met Mr.. Ed Smith, who had
met n rather suspiciouS-l looking man about
s o'clock that morning with il horse and
buggy near the brick yards west of town,
and from his description of the horse and
buggy, Mr. Gorrell was satisfied that it was
the same they were on the lookout for. All
trace of it was lost, however, and what
move to next make was hard to determine.
kilograms We're sent in various directions,

ware intending to make a thorough search.
Fifty dollars reward is offered by Mr.. Jack
son for information that will lead to the
recovery of his property. The horse is a
