times a, day. To hear them from bot.
tom Of clay shaft Is really alarming,
and they can be heard less distinctly in
any part Of the neighborhood. They
arc piainest upon the Peach farm, where
deep clay shafts were opened. Mr.
Peach. who is an intelligent gentleman,
believes they arc produced by natural
gas, and talks OF boring to ascertain the
facts.
A number of scientists have recently
been sent to the locality but they differ
widely in their conclusions. No less

enterprise developed one OF the finest
fields.
Another scientist ascribed the move
ment to the presence OF a great and as
yet undiscovered cave, the roof Of which
has been approached by the digging Of
nearly half century Of clay. He
argues that the surface of tile cave has
been weakened by the excavations
above, and that the pressure Of tho
earth is grinding the rocks constituting
the roof OF the cave, ard that this is the
cause of the noise.
| This theory is supported by an Incl.

farm Of Thomas W. Johnson, in Con

the Brandywine Summit Feldspar Co
had mined O chamber fully 40 fee

was thought would stand for ages; bu
after repeated noises which alarmed one
of the workmen who lived close by, h,
discovered that the pressure above wal

day to day it descended until finally i

The new wall of the churchyard Of
Old Swedes Church, along Church lane
from Seventh street to the railroad, is
completed and a stout iron picket fence
is erected on top of it, making an eifec-
tive barrier to tIespassers. The wardens
have also ordered similar iron fence
erected along the westerly side of the
yard, from Sixth street to the railroad,
and in the near future hope to be able
to do the same thing with the wall along
Seventh street. Since the recent arrest
Of trespassers, upon complaints made
by one of the wardcns, the yard has
been entirely free from intrusion of this
sort, and warning signs forbidding all
trespassing have been placed at three
places in the yard. When the iron
fences are completed they will bother
even an agile Juvenile adventurer, and
are sure to prove horse high, bull strong
and pig tight as well as boy high. Much
interest has been shown in these i'm.
provements and it is very gratifying to
those vino have the care of this relic of
the past and its surroundings. Some
further financial assistance is needed to
enable the wardens to carry out their
plans fully.

MILRM EN APPEAL.

A Test Case Called in Municipal Court
and the Defendant Fined on Two
Counts.
Thomas Gray, one of the milkmen
who is charged with violating the milk
ordinance Of the city, was arraigned be-
fore Judge Ball in city court Saturday
morning. lie was accused of violating
the law, in failing to take out license.
Gray is one Of the men who are repre-
scented by Attorneys Ward and Lyman,
and he was selected out Of the number
to make the test.
Mr.. Ward moved that his client be
discharged, on the ground that the
ordinance was passed by City Council
without the proper authority, either by
the charter of the city of Wilmington
or the Constitution of the State of Della
ware. The court overruled the motion,
found Gray guilty and sentenced him to
pay fine of $40 and costs Of prosecu-
ton.
On motion of Mr.. Ward, Gray was
rearrested and arraigned ON charge OF
violating the ordinance, in that he had
failed to have his wagon numbered and
lettered.
Accordingly, 1ldy was Ieaildl ueu ph
the charge, and Immediately Attorney
Lyman moved thatThe be discharged on
the ground of the ordinance being
illegal. Again the Court oyerruled the
motion, and as in the former charge
Gray was adjudged guilty and sentenced
to pay fine of $40 and costs of prose
cution.
Counsel Immediately announced ar
intention OF appealing the cases to the
upper court The trial will probably be
called at the September term.

Sunday star.
Our respect for the church and the
high regard in which we hold ministers
of the gospel generally, make 1t difficult
for US TO fittingly characterize the con-
duct of the Rev. AIr. Howard, without
seeming to be lacking in that reverence
for religion and its representatives which
every intelligent and right.thinkiuE man
should feel. But this is case where the
plain, unvarnished truth should be told,
and that truth is that the Rev, Messrs.
Watt and Howard are doing more harm
than good. They are merely advertis-
ing the houses oil ill-fame in this city,
and furthermore their silly and mis-
directed efforts at reformation will tend
to cast ridicule upon any sensible and
worthy movement in that direction that
may be attempted in the future. The
Star is willing and anxious to aid in any
good work, by whomsoever inaugurated
or prosecuted, but II is not willing to
assist in blackening the reputation of
Wilmington-which is morally cleaner
than most cities of its size-by even
facility admitting that there is any rea-
sonable ground for the circus perform
ances now being indulged in by the
Rev. Messrs. Watt and Howard. Their
action in this matter is likely TO be in
furious to Wilmington in various ways
injurious to It's morals, injurious to its
spiritual as well as to its material adj
yancement, and if the ministry could
be disgraced by the acts of individual
members OF it, the bizarre methods OF
these two preachers could not fail to
have that result.

CARRIED TO DEATH ByA FALLING WALL

Mhngled Forms Dashed Upon Piles of
Ked-hot BrIcks--The Crash Came With
out Warming and There Was No Chance
to Eseare.- Citizens and Firemen Among
the Victims.
MiNSEAPoLTs, MINN.. June 2S.-Last
nights fire in the wholesale crockery estab-
lishment of Mcdonald Brothers, on First
avenue south. near Third street, was the
most disastrous in loss Of firemen's lives
in the history Of the Minneapolis fire de-
partment. Five brave fellows lie nlangled
and lifeless at the morgue, and six of their
comrades are writhing in agony at various
hospitals. Of these six, one at least seems
doomed to die. while In another case the
issue Is i'll doubt.
The great iive-story building, with its
enormous stock of crockery. is In utter
ruins and the blackened walls, broken
windows and drenched floors OF the ad-
joining buildings bear mute evidence to
the victory won by the department against
great odds in confirming the flames to the
place Of their origin.
THE FIVE VICTIMS.
The list of the killed is as follows
Frank Euhlein, lieutenant; Walter Rich
ardson, Joseph W. Hoy, John Horner,
Christian Sande.
THE INJURED.
The seriously injured: John Gray,
broken knee cap and other slight injuries;
Ernest D. Caldwell captain, back badly
strained and internal injuries, may die:
Henry Gauf, engineer of No. /. back and
kidneys badly injured, will die; Frank
Egan, bruised W. II. Mcdonald, lieuten-
ant. badly crushed; Ed. Thiel. captain.
badly bruised about the head and body.
CITIZENS HURT
Besides the firemen who were injured
were the following private citizens
Theodore Veidt of Anoka, Mimi; William
Bretenstein, Minneapolis, and Paul john
son. Northeast Minneapolis, all cut by fall
ing glass.
FELL WITHOUT WARNING.
The heavy brick wall which wrought
this injury fell almost without warning.
The flames had been kept well within the
building by iron shutters until the interior
was blazing furnace. The newly dug
cellar of proposed building permitted u
was occupied by a score Of firenen who
were directing half dozen streams into
the building, Suddenly,
THE ROOF FELL WITH ROAR.
The crash carried down the grders, the
side wall wavered for All instant and then
toppled over on the heads of the iirenen
beneath.
The multitude that stood watching were
breAthless and silent. The vast cloud oil
smoke and dust that arose from the debris
choked out the flames momentarily and
there was no sonnd save the breathing Of
the engines. Then the police and willing
helpers rushed forward and pulled the
mangled forms of the dead and the living
from the. red-hot bricks. The dead wer;
so mangled that it was some time before
all could be identified.
The loss is $40, 600 on the building and
100000 on the stock. The insurance i!
ample TO cover this.

The Woman Who Mysterlously Disnp-
peared From Stanton, Last Winter, Re-
turns Home.
Miss Hettie Dickey, who left her
home at Stanton, last winter, clad in
male attire, returned home last Tuesday
week, but as yet has kept entirely
secluded and has given no reason for
her strange journey.
Miss Dickey on leaving her home
went to Chicago, travelling the greater
part OF the way on freight trains and on
foot On reaching that city, moneyless
and friendless, she walked the streets
until, broken down by want and suffer-
ing, she became i'll and was taken 10 a
hospital. On removing her shoes the
skin came off her feet in large pieces.
After her recovery from severe ILL
ness she manifested desire to return
home and her people were communicated
with, resulting in her return.
Miss Dickey is pretty and unassum-
ing young woman OF about "a years,
and until about two years ago was en-
gagged heart and soul in church and
temperance work. 1t is thought that
over.study and asceticlsm caused her
affliction.
