What was probably modest little earth
quake was felt in different parts of the
city about 1880 o'clock Friday afternoon.
The tremor was very slight and most of
those who experiepced it supposed it to be
one of the familiar sewer or quarry dyna-
mite explosions. The peculiarly Of the
experience was that in many instances
people in the immediate ncighborhood of
whatever about it. A dispatch from
Chester says that two distinct shocks sup.
posed to be earthquakes were felt in that
city at 1885 O'Clock Friday afternoon.
This was, as near as can be ascertained,
the same moment that the shock was felt

orderly Negro who Threatened to Clean
Out the Office.
When Justice Frank e. Smith entered
his Office, Saturday, he found short,
heavy-set colored man occupying a chair
there and looking as if he wanted to de.
stroy the magisterial office and one-half
the block beside.
On being asked his business the negro
said his name was Jacob Reed, and that
his board had been attached by a con
stable whom he wanted to wipe off the
face of the earth. When Justice Smith
told Reed he had better pacify himself If
he wanted to reach any settlement of the
trouble, the negro became more boisterous
than before. and swore until the Justices
office was filled with sulphurous. fumes.
He cursed the magistrate, Constable Rear
don, who had laid the attachment for his
board, and the Lawmakers who had
created the offices held by these two.
Justice Smith lett his seat and APP
preached Reed, whereupon the latter with
drew to the sidewalk, uttering oath after
oath as he went. He had scarcely stepped
out into the street when Justice Smith laid
violent hands on him and was hauling the
disorderly citizen back into his office,
when Constable Reardon appeared on the
scene and hustled Reed off to the police
station. His riotous action will cost him
l5 days service at New Castle Jail.

COLLECTOR royNsENn's aroTE.
He Discovers That Philadelphia Hal
Been Appropriating Delaware y usiness


Been Appropriating Delaware Business.
Collector George L. Townsend has just
made most important discovery in regard
to the fact that the Pennsylvania customs
district has been for years. IN sly. quiet
way, appropriating to itself, the credit and
advantage Of some 100000 or 10 of clear
ances' tonnage that properly belongs to the
district of Delaware.
The facts are that the big new wharves
close to Linwood where the oil refinery
tanks are located over 100 feet within. the
Delaware line. Therefore all vessels clear
ing from that point should properly get
their clearance papers from the custom
house here in Wilmington.
All along the Chester deputy collector
has been attending to this business OH ac-
count of the Philadelphia collector.
It looks like a clear appropriation of
what belongs to Delaware.
Collector Townsend sent a surveyor to
the location and had measurements made.
He is satisfied as to his position. After
conference with the Delaware Senators he
will be ready to take action. II is under
stood that at least one hundred large ships
or parks, averaging 1000 tons, leave the
wharves annually.

road would traverse one OF the rich

and agricultural resources, and the
route presents no very great engineering
difficulties.
