And While Imbibing Freely OF the Stolen
Spirits tho Thieves Are Arrested and
Locked UP.
Thieves broke into the saloon of Mrs.
Anna NJ. Winkler, No. l419 French street,
last night week, and stole dozen bottles OF
Duffy's old malt whisky and quantity of
beer. An entrance was effected by prying
open the. cellar door with crow-bar.
Once inside the thieves found their way to
the bar-room and helped themselves.
While Officer Peterson was patroling his
beat near Kirkwood Park, on Thursday,
he saw four men drinking from a mysteri-
Gus bottle, and from the supply of intoxi-
eating beverages around them, the officer
concluded to take them into custody. The
patrol wagon was sent for and the men
were taken TO the police station. Three of
the men gave their names as Hasson, Hoff-
man and Stewart. One of the quartet was
too drunk to give his name. The officer
says that they are members of the gang
known as the DIRTY Dozen" who nave
frequently come in contact with the
police in recent years.
The prisoners were arraigned on Fri
day. Mrs. Winkler testified that her
place was broken into Thursday morn
ing and several bottles of brandy taken.
Sergeant Black and Officer Peterson
testified to the arrest of the prisoners.
Elizabeth Stewart was called to prove
that her son, Robert Stewart, came
home Wednesday night and remained
in all night. He was not intoxicated
she said.
A bottle of brandy was found in the
possession of the prisoners, which Mrs
Winkler identified as hers.
Edward Hasson testified that a
strange man gave the prisoners the
bottle of brandy.
There was insufficient evidence and
! the case was dismissed.

VINO GOT THE FOxg
An Interesting Episode That Attended

An Interesting Episode That Attended a
Lively Chase in Brandywlne Hundred.
Lovers of fox-hunting may be found
in almost every community, and they
abound In Brandywine hundred. This
is an of time with many of the farmers
and farmers sons, and the time is put
in at fox-hunting. II is done more for
sport than anything else, as il makes
real lover of the sport sad to see fox
killed.
The Small Potatoes Few in a Hill
Fox Club of Hanby's Corner have had
several very pretty hunts this season.
Wednesday the club was out in full
force, and started q fox back in the
hundred near the big woods of James
O. McComb. As rule the foxes make
for the river, and this one proved NO
exception. 1t was followed so closely,
however, that by the time it reached
Glydo's Falls, on Naaman's Creek, it
went to ground. The hunters were
soon on the spot and the dogs were
more than wild.
1t was determined then and there to
dig him out and the hunters set to work
with a will. The digging was hard but
the enthusiasm was great, and not until
near dark did the men abandon the
work for the day, stopping up the hole
to prevent sly Reynard's escape. They
were on hand Thursday morning,
bright and early, to pursue the digging,
but imagine their surprise when they
found some persons had been their dur
ing the night and dug him out. They
inquired of some of the neighbors, and
one person did remember seeing some
men with lanterns about . O'Clock in
the morning around the place. AND
now the question is, who got the foxg'
Echo answers, "Whop"
Some think the Indians, whose fox
hunting grounds these are, came undel
the cover of night and dug him out
Somebody had done wonderful lot o.
digging, at any rate, and somebody il
supposed to know who got the fox.

THE CREMATORY FIRED UP.
Hundreds of Citizens Viewed 1t
Yesterday Week.

Thirty-fve I ions Are Reduced to Ashes--
Better Drivers, Horses aud Mules
Needed--The Garbage Creinatory a
Thorough Success.
Crowds of citizens visited the garbage
crematory Wednesday afternoon. The
way to 1t is about the muddiest walk
that could be well chosen, still the visit
amply repaid everyone that went there.
Contractor Brown was present, direct
ing the cranky negro drivers and their
still crankier mules. These are the most
important personages around the
premises. They demand more constant
attention and take up more time with
their awkwardness than all the rest OF
the process put together. A driver
would take more time to get his cart
into position, to mend his whip, and
other triiling delays than the assistant
engineer did to get the garbage into the
furnace. Theinapttude and awkward
ness OF the drivers was the cause of con-
tinual laughter from the visitors, and
was the sole break or halt in the celebrity
with which the cremation business was
carried on.
About IS tons of refuse were emptied
into the furnace between noon and $50
o'clock. By 8 o'clock the whole of it
was an incandescent mass.
Beneath the cartway the heap of
ashes, the residue from Mondays burn
ing, was shown by Mr., Brown. 1t is a
gray mass heaped in pyramid to
feet across and feet high. 1t weighs
about 1900 pounds. Its market value
to bone mill men is about $l3. Its sale
pays about the cost of the oil and coal
used. The former, which is the furnace
fuel, costs about SIP daily and the latter
about 81. There is always ready
market sale for the ashes.
In looking at the heavy cartloads Of
refuse being dumped into the furnaces
the reflection comes to the onlookeI
that for the past scores of years all this
filthy material has been daily dumped
/ upon the outskirts of the city. 1t is q
wonder that Wilmington has not beer
long ago transformed into a typhui
fever mandatory. From the heart d
everyone witnessing the cremation OF
the tons of filth proceeds a shuddering
Tie Deum OF grateful thanks that the
Board of Health has been successful in
moving public opinion in favor of thi
great necessity. There is the best o.
peason TO suppose that there are acre
and acres of this putrid garbage soaking
and rotting at this moment in various
neighborhoods Of the city. All that il
now needed is to see that the contracto
has good cats and also good horses
mules and drivers.
1t is supposed all these little detail
matters that interfere with the eilcienc,
OF the work will be mended in time.

CnEsTERTowN, Nd, Jan. 4-Mr
Walter Shallcross has reached Kent
county from San Domingo, bringing
news of the death Of his father, George
w. Shallcross, from yellow fever, IL
San Domingo City, November 2Sth,
1893. Mr.. Shallcross, ST., leaves claim
pending of 100000 against the San
Domingo government, as the result of
damage done to his extensive property
and for false imprisonment.
Mr.. ShallCross went to San Domingo
on January 23d prospecting for the ex-
tensive cultivation of onions for early
market. A partnership was formed
with j. E. Hatton, creole living on
the island, and $4,000 acres of land
were purchased from the government
and the cultivation of cocoa, oranges,
lemons and other fruits commenced
upon an extensive scale.
Four thousand acres were fenced in
with seven-strand wire fencing to pre-
vent the depredations of hogs, the
islanders using no fences except kind
of stockade around their cocoa fields
Young Shallcross said that there is an
abiding antipathy against Americans
on the part of the natives, and his
fathers fences were cut and the hogs
did untold destruction.
No redress was allowed Finally
several dead hogs were found near the
premises Of the company and his father
(Mr. Shalleross) was summoned TO APP
! pear at San Domingo City to stand trial.
He was imprisoned and was neither
allowed counsel nor witnesses. He was
/ finally acquitted. but for this decision
both judges were lodged in jail. Threats
/ were made against his life and he was
! advised to leave his plantation, neal
/ SANTANA, and go to San Domingo City,
4 100 miles distant, and was instructed by
\ native official that il would be unsafe
/ for him to remain in his house at nigh
with lamps lighted or window shutters
/ open.
Several months ago these statements
with others, were placed in the hands o.
4 Comptroller Smith, who has transmitted
\ them to Washington. 1t is said a lorna
demand will be made upon the govern
ment of San Domingo for $500,000 TO
destruction done to property anC
4 100000 for illegal imprisonment.
On November 9th Mr.. Shallcros
was stricken with yellow fever, died a
4.45 o'clock on the following morning
and was buried before 10 o'clock thu
same day.
A letter expressing regrets was re
celyed on Monday by Thomas ]. Shall
cross, an uncle Of the deceased man
from ex-Minister John S. Durham, VIII
was intimately acquainted with Nj
Shallcross while at the San Doming
capital. The untimely death of tn
complainant is regarded as militatin
somewhat against an effective fight il
the matter.

day week by Benjamin f. Dennis. 1t
was made out of wood taken from
mulberry tree which was planted near

Lafayette and was given to Mr.. Dennis
by its maker, the superintendent OF the
Mt Vernon grounds. The gift was
formally presented to the lodge, Mr..

hou Drop in Penny, Apply Match,
and Burn Thirty Cubic Feet of Gas.
New York Herald.
After the innumerable imbecile and rob-
beriike applications OF the ''penny.in-the
slot principle, il is pleasant to record a
sensible application of the same. Few of
these can lay claim to the serviceability of
the "penny-in-the slot gas machine
which is now in use in parts of England,
and principally by the corporation 81 the
city of Manchester. By this application
the consumer can obtain about 80 feet for
one penny.
The penny is placed in the slot in the
usual manner, and the rate for gas in
Manchester is three pence for 100 feet.
One burner is estimated to consume about
SIX feet of gas per hour, and this system
OF supply has proved of great benefit to
small cottage jewellers, as class to whom
the occasional spending OF a penny is not
so sharply felt as would be the outlay
under the ordinary monthly gas bill
arrangement.
