THIEVES CARNIVAL.
SEVERAL HOUSES BROKEN
INTO AND ONE HIGHWAY
ROBBERY.

About four o'clock yesterday morn.
ing, Mrs. Miller, residing at Front and
West streets, was awakened by a noise
in her bedroom, and saw a colored man
standing a short distance from her bed.
The lady was badly frightened and gave
a scream which aroused her husband,
when the thief leaped out the back win
dow, and running along a grape arbor
jumped into an adjoining yard and
male his escape out the back gate, drop
ping his hat In his fight. 1t was found
that the thief had also broken Into the
grocery store Of K. s. Ferguson, in the
same building which he had vainly ran
sacked in search of plunder. As Mr..
Miller could not discover that anything
had been taken from his house it is sup
posed the fellow had just got in when
he was discovered by Mrs. Miller.
The saloon Of Patrick Long, in the
immediate vicinity, was also broken
into, and an attempt made to open
the safe. As the place was entered the
same as Ferguson's, 1t is supposed both
were done by the same man. The hat
that was dropped by the thief in his
flight from Mr.. Miller's house was given
to officer Marques, yesterday morning,
and he started in search of its owner.
After a little investigation of the
matter, the officer obtained clue, and
proceeding to a small dwelling house
in the rear of H. A. Browns coal yard
at Water and West streets arrested a
colored man, who gave his name as
Ward Grooms, and locked him up at the
hall.
About 2 o'clock yesterday morning
the residence OF officer Cannon, at
Townsend and A streets, South Will
mington, was also broken into and
robbed Of 50 from a drawer in the
second story front room. An entrance
was effected through the front cellar
window, from which the thief easily
made his way up stairs. The house
bore the appearance of having been
thoroughly ransacked, as clothing and
other articles were found scattered
around. Mrs, Cannon heard a noise
about2 o'clock, and getting up went
down stairs, but not seeing anything
wrong at that time, went back to bed
again.
An attempt was also made about 4
o'clock yesterday morning to break in
to the house of Edward Forrest at No.
gil West Eighth street. Mr.. Forrest, is
away from home at present, and his
wife and son 16 years ofage were awak
ened by the barking of small dog that
was in the house, and upon their 6 tting
up found that some one was attempting
to break in the rear door, from a back
porch.
The young man, armed with a re-
volver, stepped on the second story
porch and called to the thief, who was
Immediately underneath, to desist, but
the fellow paid no attention to him and
continued with his efforts to pry open
the door. Young Forrest then fired two
shots from his pistol, and the man
started down the yard toward the back
gate. when three more shots were dis
charged at him, but without effect.
The moon was shining brightly at the
time, and the young man, who saw he
fellow distinctly, says he was colored
man.

A PLEASANT OCCASION.
Presentation OF . watch to Fore
man By Hts Fellow WOrkmen.

Last Saturday evening one Of those
pleasant events occurred IN South
Wilmington, that go far towards
cementing the bonds of friendship that
always should exist between superiD.
tendents or foremen, and the men in
their employ. Shortly after . o'clock
some thirty employees of the Christiana
iron works met at the house of John
Lloyd, on Heald street, and proceeded
In body to the residence of their fore
man, Nathan s. Galloway, ,on Claymont
street, and without any ceremony or
explanations whatever marched In and
took possession Of the parlor and sitting
room.
The visit was totally unexpected by
Mr.. Galloway, who, when he came in
the room, looked from one to the other
of his guests in a puzzled manner, and
finally asked the cause OF 1t. One Of the
party suggested that the men wanted
an increase of ten per cent on the amount
they were now receiving, but before Mr..
Galloway had time to reply, he was con-
fronted by Edward Miller, who, after
congratulating him on having reached
the 45th mile stone on life's journey in
formed him that his fellow wOrkmen In
the Christiana iron works had deter
mined, az slight mark Of their friend
ship for him, and appreciation Of hts
kindness, 20 time him on the remainder
of his journey.
The speaker then, suiting the action
to his words, drew from his pocket q
handsome gold watch and chain, which
he handed to him with the remark that
he was sure that 1t could not afford him
greater pleasure to receive it, than 1t
did his fellow workmen to present 1t.
Mr.. Galloway stood for fully two
minutes with the watch and chain IN
his hand before he could find words to
reply, but finally thanked them IN a
sincere and earnest manner, with an
eloquence prompted by an overAowing
heart. The watch is an American
lever, with heavy gold cases, on one OF
which is inscribed: Presented to n.
s. Galloway on his 45th birthday, by
employees of the Christiana Iron
Works"
After the presentation the company
Joined in singing "All Hail the Power
Of Jesus Name" and upon it being
ascertained that Miss Maggie Carpenter,
very excellent organist was in the
house, she was called upon and played
number Of beautiful selections. MIR.
Miller amused the company with a
simon pure Dutch song, and afterwards
took his place at the organ and sang a
Salvation Army song. Refreshments,
consisting of cakes and fruit, were
served, after which the company took
their departure with sincere wishes that
Mr.. Galloway might be spared to cele-
brate many returns of the day.

A Large Attendance st the Reopen.
Ing OF the Church.

The Delaware Avenue Baptist
Church, which has recently undergone
a complete renovation, a description OF
which appeared in these columns on
Saturday, was re-Opened for public
worship yesterday, with appopriate all
day services. The exercises of the day
began at 1880 a. IN. with the Rev. H. e..
Weston, ID. d., President Of Grocer
Theological Seminary, actinglas moder-
ator.
The audience were first treated to an
organ voluntary, performed on the new
pipe organ by Rev. W.. H. Young, one
Of the manufacturers. After the ren-
dition of solo and quartet, Now the
shades of night have gone," the choir
sang q Jubilata, "Oh BE Joyful in
the Lord" followed by an Invocation,
a hymn by the choir, reading of scrip
tllres and fervent prayer. At the con-
clusion Of the prayer, Miss Laura Big
ger sang Millard's" Ave Maria in
fine style, which was highly appreciat-
ed by the audience. This was followed
by an anthem by the choir, when the
Rev. Wayland Hoyt, D. D., pastor OF
of the Memorial Baptist church Of Phil
adelphia, delivered an appropriate as
we'll as impressive sermon from the
text, "When Jesus therefore had re-
ceived the vinegar, He said 1t is finish
ed"
The church was packed to its utmost
capacity, and the audience swas highly
elated over the many changes wrought
since the church had been closed.
In the afternoon the doors Of the
church were again thrown open and
another large audience soon filed in and
took their seats In the main auditorium
where interesting services were held.
Among the features of the afternoon
exercises was the excellent solos rem
dered by Miss Kate Davis, of the First
Presbyterian church Choir.
In addition to the singing by the
choir, short addresses, relative to the
good accomplished by Delaware
Avenue Church, were made by the Rev.
H. &. Weston, d. D. Rev. j. T. Craig,
State Missionary Rev. Henry Trait,
pastor of Bethany Baptist church; Rev.
II. w. Cell, Of the German Baptist
church, and Rev.j b. 7. Moore, of Shi'
lob Bapt ct church. An appeal for fl.
nancial aid was made by Rev. Wayland
Hoyt, d. D., supplemented by few
remarks by the Rev. Isaac M. Halde-
man, pastor of the church.
At the evening services the church
was again crowded, and many were
unable to gain admittance. The musi-
cal part of the program at this service
was very interesting and consisted Of
solos by Misses Bigger and Davis. Solo
and quartette, "Jesus, Saviour of my
Soul. %" Hail, Sovereign Love-" choir !
Nothing but leaves" quartet and
ether excellent selections, concluding
with "The Gloria" from Mozart's
Twelfth Mass, by the choir. The Rev.
G. W. Folwell, former pastor of the
church, preached an eloquent sermon.
At its conclusion another appeal for
money was made, and the response was
h ghly gratifying. 1t was stated that
the debt Oh the church amounted &c
g., 600, which was nearly if not quite
liquidated before the close Of the servi
vices. The exercises throughout the
ay were highly enjoyed, aud those IN
charge are deserving of credit for the
success of the:same. The singing was
unusually grand, and was under the
direction of Prof. Pancoast Allen.
