WILMINGTON is having warfare
with the gambling dens and policy
shops that seem to have such a fascina-
tion for a certain class of men. One of
the victims, named McDermOtt, who
lost all his money in trying to make
money over their tables, and finally his
position of salesman because of the de-
mOralizatiOR produced and in the dis
tress that he and his family had been
brought to, gave information that led
70 the arrest of Gallagher, the keeper
of the zen. In arresting Gallagher,
who was released on a small bail to ap-
pear for trial, they put McDermOtt
under similar bonds as a witness, and
in lieu Of some one to go his bail. was
sent TO prison, to all effects the crimi-
nal, while the other man, who had
robbed him, walked the streets at lib
eTty. This is said to be the first case
in the criminal history of the city
where a witness has been thus treated,
and looks as if intended to discourage
persons from giving information that
will disturb the gamblers.

This is not a Joke.

Mr.. EDITOR; At the suggestion of
a friend l sent my communication,
He still ives") to the Record being
assured by him that the sub was no
longer the sub. | took it for granted
that / would be treated with fairness.
but instead / was deceived, imposed
upon and treated with a very great
discOurtesy. The ex-sub stated public
ly that he had nothing to do with edit
ing the paper (the editor being at
hOme): now if he was not editing the
paper by what rule of proprlety or de-
cency could he (tbe subj comment on
my letter to the Record in the same
issue. If we understand it Alright all
communications are treated as sacred ::
and if this be the case, the ex-sub had
no business to see my letter, and the
editor broke faith by making it public
property. Andif he did so by accident
or otherwise he should not have allow,
ed any comment to be published, es-
pecially by an outside party and ap-
pended even to the letter itself. We
hoped we would not be compelled to
write more on this very icy subject and
we now dismiss it with all of its cold
ness, reserving only the monumental
ice house which exultingly points her
icy fingers at the twain and exclaims.

The Board of Health

Call the attention of their fellow cit
liens to the proposed change of Wells
lately used for tOdter supply, into recep.
tdcles Of filth. The use of these wells
as sinks or privy wells, will menace
the lives not only of the family so us
ing them, but of the cOmmunity-in
consequence of the impOssibIifv of
cleansing property openings of such
depth and their immediate cOmnlunica-
lion i0ith the springs.
Garbage and filthy matter once with
in them cannot conveniently and tUiV
not be removed, but will remain until
either decOmposed or dissolved. The
danger therefore lies in the direction
both of the atmosphere and drinking
water. The former must be fatally
tainted by the poisonous Vapor,. Ah,in
the strata of sand and grayej every
where underlying our town must con
vey in all directions that pirt of the
poison which is washed into the earth.
Private drinking wells will thus be-
come vitiated and the purity of the
public well will be seriously endan-
gered. The latter already drains a
considerable portion of our eastern sec
ton, and will be likely, ultimately, to
drain, to some extent, almost all our
underlying sands. When such pollu-
ton is threatened we appeal to the
common sense of the community
against so barbarOus method of mis-
taken convenience or economy.
GET RID OF garbage, slOps, and filth.
but do not PRESERVE them to poison
your own families and others. Re
member the Plymouth and Virginia
epidemics from vitiated water.
1t should not be forgotten that even
the supposed economy will vanish. if il
should be found necessary to abate
such places as nuisances. So far as
human eXcreta are concerned, i'm the
absence of public sewerage, shallow
boxes or shallow cemented pits kept
covered with earth, or ashes, frequently
sprinkled with disiDfectants, and Ueru
often cleaned, are the best-privy vaults
being now condemned and discarded
in the larger cities.
As to all the other forms of filth we
repeat GET RID OF IT-in any mode
which you have heretofore found eff
fective-but, upon no consideration,
PRESERVE it near your dwellings, in
1veLts or otherwise.

Sunday School Anniversary.

The Anniversary of the NJ. f. Sun
day school which came off last night
was we'll attended, the galleries as we'll
as the audience room being we'll filled.
The exercises were opened with prayer
by Presiding Elder France. An hour
was given to singing, responsive read
ings and recitatiOns, the three latter by
Misses Mary Smith, Mary Anthony
and Sadie Smith. The singing was led
by the chOrister, w. o. HOffecker,
Miss Grace Quigg presiding at the or
gan, the responsive readings being led
by the superintendent, John H. HOf-
fecker. The singing and reading which
alternated in quick succession, exhibi-
ted good training in harmOniZing voices,
especially manifest in some of the mu-
sic. The report of the secretary of the
school, w. 0. HOffecker, showed it to
be in a good condition having on the
roll $40 scholars with an average atten-
dance of 225; teachers "a, with an
average attendance of %; and IL of
ficers. 1t was noticed that the boys
and girls kept nearly even in numbers
until the age of 10 when the former
fell away, while the girls in the main
retained their connection with the
school. Gratitude was expressed that
the school had been visited by but little
sickness and but one death during the
year, that of Edgar S. Spencer. The
Report of the missionary secretary
Herman Roe, gave the contributions by
classes and by the the recent showing
an aggregate for the year of S335.66 to
which a collection was added increas-
ing it to $3.50 the same as contributed last
year. Rev. Alfred Smith of GreensbOr-
Ough followed in an address of three
quarters of an hour in length, his prin
cipal theme being missionary work
The Rev. J. B. Quigg followed in some
remarks and a supplemental collection
the delay in starting and length of ex-
ercises making it half past nine O'Clock
when the benedictiOn was pronounced
nearly an hour longer than is usually
consumed in the anniversary exercises

Never has there been more of a So
cial gathering at Green Spring, Del,
than there was yesterday at the resi-
dence of Mr.. and Mrs. John Young, the
occasion being the uniting in the holy
bonds of matrimOny Miss Mary d.
Young, daughter of the host and host
ess, to William H. Armstrong, son of
Samuel A. Armstrong, residing near this
town, Rev. J. B. Quigg officiating.
Everybody seemed to be in the best of
spirits and bent on making everybody
enjoy themselves.
Precisely at IL o'clock, noon, the
bride and groom elect, ushered in by
Benjamin Collins, of Green Spring, and
Alfred +. Fowler, of this town, took
their positions in the presence of the
invited guests and were made man and
wife. Miss Ollie France, of this town,
played Memberships wedding march
in very creditable manner. After
the ceremony the company were seated
TO most magnificent and bountiful
table ladened down, to do justice to the
inner man.
The bride and groom left later in the
afternoon for their home near Mag
nolia, where Mr.. A. has charge of a
very nice farm, recently purchased by
his brother. The presents were nu-
merOus as we'll as useful. Not until
nearly time for tea did the company
disperse, all feeling "glad that they
were living" as one young man ex-
pressed himself.
The following persons were in
attendance: John Young and wife,
Samuel A. Armstrong and wife, Joseph
Stevenson and wife, Mrs. Kate Wells,

THE Hamilton county, Ohio, attempt
at fraud by ballot-bOx stufing and
false counting to get control of the
Legislature has resulted in the enact
ment by the Legislature of law crea-
ting non partizan Board of Election
for the cities of Cincinnati, Cleveland,
Toledo and Columbus. This will in a
great measure defeat such grand
schemes as Mclean attempted to per-
petrate on Cincinnati, as the board be-
ing composed of both parties, will send
the fraud workers to the rear. The
politics of that city partOok of the gen.
eral character of the place as being
very wicked.

At Duck Greek.

The wash of the road at Duck Creek
by the water pouring from the break
of Denney's race bank, required a
large amount of dirt and the county
(the wash being on the last fifty feet of
the Kent side and of course the ex-
pense falling on it), purchased one
seventh of an acre of land of Messrs.
Quillen & Collins for 800 on the
brow of the hill, and the work of re-
pair has been going on rapidly since.
The lot of which this forms part is Just
across the brook from where the origi-
nal Episcopal Church stood, the stones
of which were used in erecting the
present church in this town over sixty
years ago. The ground, or a part of
it was evidently used a century and
more ago as burial ground, but there
is nothing to designate it but two tomb
stones, doubtless imported, that mark
the resting places of Samuel Lloyd and
his wife Esther, the former being bur
led in the year 1757-129 years ago
the latter preceding this by ten years.
These were evidently persons of dis
tinction Of their day, but we know of
no descendants, and our oldest inhabi-
tants seem to have no knowledge of
them. Such are the deliberations of
time. In digging away the hill near
the roadside two or three graves or
rather human bones were dug into, and
these too were pitched into the cart
and went the way of all the earth"
