dred persons attended the skating rink, !,
a large number being drawn thither
owing to the announcement that several
we'll known Wilmingtonians would
skate mile race for q gold scarf pin.
The contestants who entered the race
were Gamble Latrobe, George b. Kit
finger, W. Frank Tatnall, Henry Fuh-
lenw iler and Edwin s. Farra. Prompt
ly at nine o'clock the participants were
drawn up In line. Catching hold of each
Others hands, they started off together
and on arriving at the starting point
a fter the second attempt had been made
the word "go" was given by d Il.
Burras and W. T.. TrowDridge, who
acted as judges and time keepers. Tat
nall took the lead and kept 1t until the
fourth time around, when Kittinger,
whv held second place, passed Iatnali,
but Latrobe, who had been holding third
place took squirt aht ad and passed
both Tatnall and Kittinger for the firth
round, aud held first-place until the
fir ish of the race, Kittinger being Sec
ond, followed by Tatnall and Fuhlen-
wiler, with Faira bringing up the rear.
II seemed strange but nevertheless the
TACT tnat tney CAmo Ill accounting w
the mum bers printed on their backs.
Latrobe being first came in first and so
on until the last one in. The race was
given to kittinger owing to foui
claimed by Tatnall, that Latrobe push
ed him out on turning one Of the cor
pers. Kittinger was pretty well wind
ed, but seemed the only one who suffer-
ed any by their exertions In the race.
Fifteen times around the rink constitu-
ted mile, and it was made in min
utes and fifty, three seconds, being first
rate time for amateurs. The little ltal-
ian band render'd sweet strains or mu
sic that helped those that we're not skat
ing but only lockers on to pass the time
pleasantly. This evening Oracle Logue

Minister West ON Rossa's shooting.

WAsHINGToN, Feb. Administer
West, of Great Britain, was asked by a
reporter to day il any precautions were
being taken to prevent attempts ef
dynamiters upon the British legation in
this city. He said that no precautions
had been taken, and that he thought 1t
Was not necessary 10 take any,. He
was also asked what he thought of the
shooting of O'Donovan Rossa, and in
reply said: 81 deeply regret the shoot
ing of that man, because 1t makes 1t
appear as If the party Of law aid order
were resorting to the same means as the
ldynamiters, and were pursuing sys'
tenn of retaliation, than which nothing
Is more dangerous. OF course it would
be suspecting England of being a fool
to imagine that It instigated the attack

A Fight over . Pole.

Charles Aimes, Republican, erected
q Blaine and Logan pole on his premi-
ses, near Kennett Square, Pa, last fall.
Patrick McGinty, Democrat, made a
wager that be could cut down the pole.
With All axe he went to Aimes' place
on Tuesday, and began hacking the
pole. Aimes. armed with double
barreled shotgun, commanded McGinty
to go away. The latter kept on chop
ping and Aimes repeated the order. He
tben waited few seconds, and finding
that McGinty was determined to cut
dow n the pole, raised his gun and fired.
The entire charge entered McGinty q
body, making quite q severe wound,
but it is thought that he will recover.
Aimes gave himself up, and was lodg-
cd in the Jail at West Chester. He Is q
respectable farmer, while McGinty is
rather dissolute character.
