Alarm of Fire

AT nine and half o'clock this morn
ing the alarm of fire was given bv the
ringing of the fire bell, and as a stiff
breeze was blowing, heightning the
danger, of course it quickly aroused
the people. Richard Brown with bis
mack hurried to the engine house to aid
the lremen Who were rapidly gather

being pulled by the firemen. Forth

Tor the endangered house was in the
midst OF a row of closely built. HIGH
wooden houses on the windward side IF

nave oeen extremely difficult to con-
troll, they were not needed.
Inc alarm started from the house of
b. Is. Allen, on upper Main street. the
discovery being made that the wood
work about the fireplace heater in tho
parlOr was ON fire. 1t was lucky that
IL was revealed to Mrs. Allen soon af-
ter 1t lgnited by smoke in the little
cupboard at the side of the chimney
Mr.. Allen with the aid of others gath
ered up the hot stove, set it out in the
street, tore away the wooden surround
lngs and thus speedily put a stoD to
cause OF danger. The difficulty came
from the fact that the ends of the Iatb

proximity to the stove.

wishes to express his thanks to the
members of the Citizens Hose Com
pany for their prompt response.

Mr.. BAYARD's Extradition Treaty
with England which has been before
Congress for nearly two years has been
again postponed until December, it is
said, because of the clamor of Senator
Riddleburger to debate it in open ses-
sion, but the more probable reason
doubtless was to keep it out of the wav
Of the Presidential campaign.
The treaty has several good features
AID but for the apprehension that it is
open TO "a construction that would I'M
duly restrict the right of asylum for
political offenders it would undoubted-
ly be adopted. 1t adds manslaughter,
burglary and embezzlement to the
list Of extraditable ofenses, which
would, if adopted, deprive our embez-
cling cashiers of the great advantage
which they now enjoy, as a trip to
Canada would no longer save them.
Another clause makes the malicious
destruction or injury of property by
which lives Of any persons are endan-
gered an extraditable ofense. This is
aimed at dynamite outrages, but the
fear that it might be used to serve the
political purposes of England in the
prosecution of Irish Home-rulers has
made the Republican members Of the
United States Senate unwilling to APP
prove it. 1t ought to pass.

TO AN unusual degree owing to the
energy of the prosecution and the de.
cisive action of the court, the gamblers
and policy dealers of Wilmington have
found that the "way of the trangressor
IS hard" The grand jury has, since
the complete unearthing of them by
the Ecery ECening, acted on seventy
five cases, some of whom have served
terms in Jail for their offense. At this
term of the court the counsel for the
gamblers are making strenuous efforts
to induce the judges to modify the SEN
fences of their clients. These men
pondered to the lowest vices of the eo-
pie in defiance of law and morality.

For the Smyrna Tines
Letter from Cheswold,

Mr.. EDITOR The railroad has
ordered that their Office at Moorton
be changed in name and is to be called
CheS'oOtd to take effect the 18th: after
this date tickets and all freight pack
ages will be marked with the new
name. This is the starting point in
this direction that has been under con-
temptation for year or more. owing
to the trouble and inconvenience cans.
ed by freights and mail matter going
to WOrtOn, Kent county, Md. and
Morton, Delaware county, Penn.
The postofiice department will now
likely name their Office at this place to
conform to the railroad change. then
the town will probably be changed
by Legislative enactment to comDiete
the change in name. 1t is what we
might call big thing to give a town a
new name and establish it. It takes
years to accomplish it generally.
There is no objection to the name of
Moorton, its a good name, but there
mas been so much confusion of mail
and freights owing to the three names
having so near the same ring, the
change becomes necessary. NJ.
