Mayor Harrington's Raid Enriches the
CITY Treasury Very Much.


The case Of James Nj. Barton, proprie-
tor Of the Novelty Theatre, charged with
selling liquor without license, was re.
sumed in the police court last event ng.
w 7. Smithers, Esq. his counsel pro.
duced testimony as to the character of
the place
Mrs. Annie Wood, wife Of the loader
of the orchestra, testified that she went
to the performance in company with her
lite daughter. She had never seen any
thing wrong in the place and considered
it as respectable rs the Opera House or
any other place Of amusement
Henry Kaufman testified to the same
effect.
Lily Huges, one of the performers Of
the dive was called. City solicitor Tur-
ner called her a singing soubrette .
Barton had called her TO give character
to the place and she performed her duty
well. In fact she painted picture of
loneliness to the place that would have
done credit to a church She spurned
the idea that she had ever sold liquor in
the place or that the detectives had ever
obtained any from her. She claimed 20
be an apostle Of temperance, aud denied
ever having drunk anything in the place
All the evidence made no mark on the
judge whatever and in fning Barton he
said.
THE testimony that liquor was sold
at this place has been most direct and
convincing The owner has several times
applied for license, which the court
deemed it wise to refuse. In spite of this
the proprietor has persisted in selling
liquor without a license, and this court
proposes to make that business unproiit.

STREETS WANTED OPEN.

An Important Petition to be Presented
TO the street and Sewer Directors This
Evening.
Prior to 1851 nearly all the property
between Ninth street and Delaware
Avenue and Madison and Adams streets
was owned by Rev Patrick Reilly. l.. N.
Hounstield and Judge Il. w. Gilpin. AT
that time Wilmington had not given
premise Of its present growth and these
three gentlemen had large properties
which they wanted preserved intact
Accordingly on February Il. 1851, an act
OF the General Assembly was passed
closing Monroe street from Ninth to Della
ware avenue, and Tenth and Eleventh
streets from Madison to Adams streets
In the course of few years Father
Reilly who owned the greater part of the
tract placed his land upon the market and
soon found ready buyers. The sale was the
commencement Of Improvement in the
neighborhood and now every foot almost
Of the property sold by the reverend
gentleman has been built upon by the
purchasers. With their deeds these pur-
chasers all of them, were given the
right Of way Of streets and the result
was that Tenth street was opened clear
through, Monroe street Eleventh
point above Tenth and to Il
street to point west Of Madison. But
the Hounsheld and Gilpin properties were
not divided and they form to day the two
fine residences which ornament Delaware
avenue beyond Madison street While
this is true of them they also form an
obstruction to improvement. The IN
opened sections of Monroe and Eleventh
streets come straight up to them, pre-
venting egress and ingress TO properties
except by going square on two out Of
the way. Houses located In this way are
not nearly SO valube as those located on
streets that 60 straight through.
OF so much Importance is this matter
regarded by the citizens Of the vicinity
that this evening there will be presented
to the Street and Sewer Directors a petit
tion representing over 81 500 600. asking
the directors TO purchase the right Of
way through the properties and thus
furnish TO the people who live in the
neighborhood free means of outlet and
remove the barrier that exists against
future improvement The petitioners
have every reason TO believe in the sue.

ether things in speaking OF the great

your city have the most humorous EN-
blem of the occasion. In wire cage sat
a hen calmly lowering brood
of young chickens, and above the
cage was a transparency which
read: Blue hens chickens of a
new breed, and Hear how we crow. The
Delawareans had double victory to
crow for.
A gentleman who spent the evening at
the Union League, another Delawarean,
says that when the Delaware boys came
along with their Blue Hens chickens,
Vice President elect Morton enthusiast
cally applauded with both hands and voice
the unique representation. He remarked to
several gentlemen afterwards that the
young Republicans of Delaware with
their suggestive notices of the whole
demonstration made the most agreeable
impression upon him. 1t brought wildly
in mind the Republican victory in Della
ware, which was one Of the most promis-
ing signs of the times.
