Meeting of Police Commissioners.

At lhe last meeting of the Board OF
Police Commissioners the City Solicitor
was instructed to ascertain the law cover
ing the height of arc lights from street
level. At last nights meeting City Sol
icitor Conrad reported that there was
nothing in either the city ordinances or
the State Laws which covered this point
in any way. The board requested that
the City Solicitor prepare an ordinance
regulating the height at which arc lamps
should be placed within city limits, to
be submitted to City Council at its next
meeting. This question arose over the
death of colored man who was killed
by touching au arc light with the tip Of
his umbrella in Philadelphia last week.
He was standing upon an iron gutter
plate and thus formed short circuit. In
vcstigation in this city disclosed the fact
that there were many lamps that were
dangerously low, one Of them being only

Many TiIls Tapped.

| When the butchers, who rent stalls in
Third Street Market, arrived at their
place OF business, yesterday monning,
they found every till, excepting one or
two, broken open and robbed Of the
money they contained.
At the southern end of the market
there is an alley, which runs back the
entire depth of the building. Several
large doors open out of the market into
this alley, and it was through one OF
these doors that the burglars gained an
entrance.
Several panes Of glass had been broken
out of the door, and the openings thus
made, had been closed by mailing pieces
of zinc over them. One of the burglars
forced one of these pieces of zinc from
the door, and inserting his hand through
the open ng had shot the bolt. They
rihed nearly all the drawers, tearing
those that were locked completely from
their fastenings, and leaving them on
the counters. Mr.. McGarrity's office
was also broken open, but nothing Of
value was found. After robbing the
market, the burglars entered the com
mission houses of Messrs. Wilson and
Carton. Taking a rough estimate of all the
money lost, it is supposed that the rob-
bers did not obtain over three or four
dollars. 1t is not known where the
watchman was, while the burglars were
at work. He, however, had no know
ledge of the robbery until yesterday
morning. The market men think that
the dcprrdations were committed by Il
crowd Of boys.

SMYRNA, Del, Nov. 29.-I'he end of
Nathaniel Carey's peculiar action in dcs-
troying his wiies tombstone, is not yet.
The town is in fever Of excitement, the
trustees of the Odd Fellows cemetery
have resented Carcy's action, and before
many hours the man who is the author
OF all the exG cement will be under ar
rest
On Friday Carey entered the Odd Eel
lows cemetery and deliberately tore
down a monument which had been
erected to the memory Of his wife by her
mother, and thru the slab in the road
To- day. after listening to the clanor-
3 ings of the people OF this town for two
days, the trustees OF the cemetery held a
meeting in order to decide what action
should be taken in the matter. The
meeting was y sensatioal one and very
heated. Msny facts about Capy's life
With his first wife were brought out and
after due consideration the board
came to the conclusion that Carey's
action was not only an act
OF vandalism but contained such
disgusting features that it could not be
passed without Carey being punished.
Consequently a warrant was to-day
sworn out Carey's arrest and placed in
the hands of the constable, who im-
medatcly set out to serve it. As yet
Carey has not been arrested.
In explanation of what he has done
Carey says that he has no malice in his
heart toward the memory of his wife,
that he did not destroy the monument
because he had had any trouble with
her, but he was determined that a monu-
ment erected to her memory by his
mother-in-law should not rest over his
wife's grave. His trouble was with his
mother-in-law and not with his wife.
He SAYS that he had intended and still
intended to erect Il monument in memory
of his wife and he would allow no one
else to do 50.
Carey will be arrested tomorrow
morning and given a hearing before
Magistrate Cooper. The interest is
intense.

The second OF the series of lectures

ers Of the city, with the public at liberty
to attend. The exercises were opened

singing, Japanese Lullaby" The men,
bers Of the quartet are Miss Mary Clay
ton, Miss Eva Fighter, Miss Daisy Robe
,ea an Miss Ethel R gers. =
After the singing by the quartette
Supt. D. W. Harlan neatly introduced
tie speaker DIR. A. L. Winship, Editor
of the Journal Of Education of Boston,
Massachusetts,. The subject Of the lee
ture was, Training as afactor in Educa-
tion." In part he said: Thirty years ago
any bright young man went to college and
took away with him all that was offered;
today, there is not young man or
woman so brilliant that he or she can
go to one of the leading American Uni
versitics and take away twentieth part
Of what is offered. Then the colleges
equipped with knowledge; today the
universities train.
Then the aim was to see how much
they could give; now they see how little
they can give to each, but how much
each can get for himself by way of train
ing. Then Editor Winship unfoldcd his
idea of the way in which all the schools
should offer opportunity and direction,
for training is power. Many illustra-
tions were given OF the rewards that are
coming to men in every walk Of life be-
cause Of their training.
Mr.. Winship is an optimist, but
the conditions upon which America can
enter into her industrial and CONNER
cial, her material and moral Inheritance
were set forth with great clearness and
vigor The address closed with impress
i've illustrations from the experiences of

A Slight Blaze.

A fire occurred last night at the bottling
establishment of Joseph Merkel, on
Pleasant street, between Jackson and
Van Buren, streets.
At 5. 10 o'clock, last evening an alarm
of fire was turned in from box No. 26, at
Second and Jackson streets. The Fire
Department responded with their usual
promptitude, and located the fire at the
bottlng establishment of Joseph Merkel.
A few days ago, a stove was erected in
the establishment, and there being no
chimney to the building, the pipe was
run through the loft, in which large
quantity of hay was stored. 1t is sup
posed that the hay became ignited from
the pipe.
A few minutes after O'Clock, Harry
NJ. Rose, an cmployc Of Mr. Merkel,
heard cracking noise in the loft.
Looking in that direction, he saw the
fire through q crack in the floor of the
loft. He promptly turned in the alarm
The fire was extnguisled after twenty
minutes work by the Department. The
true extent of the damage has not been
