DIR. AAILEY.

DR.. Maurice c. Ashley, who has been
so i'll with typhoid fever for so many
weeks, left by the Coptic for his hon4
in Middleton, on three months frV<
lough.. 1t would be indeed gratifying
to him could he hear all the words
said in praise of him by the men of the
New York regiment. He won the
hearts of all by his strict attention to
duty, working early and late for
those who needed his care. His cour-
teous manned to the ladies who assist
ed at the Red Cross tent will never be
forgotten. He has the best wishes of
all who were fortunate enough to
meet him, for a safe journey and a
speedy recovery.

THE BEST PLASTER.

A piece of flannel dampened with
Chamberlain Pain Balm and bound

to be more than pleased with the
prompt action which it affords. Pain
Balm is also a certain cure for rheu-
matism. For sale by all druggists.

John walther Wants street and Sewer
partment to DO Something for the str

John walther Wants street and Sewer De-
partmsnt to DO Something for the Street.
John Walther, carriage builder,
whose place of business is on the south
side Of Market street bridge, made
vigorous complaint to the Street and
Sewer Department Tuesday night about
the condition Of the street. This
thoroughfare was formerly kept up by
the county but recently has been
turned over to the city. Mr.. Walther
held that something should be done by
the city, alleged that poor people have
to pay taxes and the money is mot
always we'll expended, and that officials
should be required to do their duty. 1t
developed in the course of his remarks
and tho replies of Directors Pratt and
Simmons that each property owner
over there has been looking out for
himself. One man fills in the street
in front of his place TO throw the
water off and the water then goes upon
his neighbor, who follows the same
plan in getting rid of it. Tho directors
suggested that il the people would ask
for curb the department would grant
the lines and put in tho gutter which
would largely eradicate the evil Tho
suggestion seemed to suit Mr.. Walther.
First Assistant Engineer, William
Joyce of the fire department asked the
board TO remove fender stone In Six.
toenth street, between King and French,
which is q dangerous obstruction to
fire apparatus, an accident having been
narrowly ayerted there recently. Tho
street commissioner will remove the
obstruction.
Speaking OF Sixteenth street, the
board is DESTROYS that the water do
partmentswiden the arch Of the south
long race where it passes under Market
street to allow the widening Of Six
teenth whore it turns towards the
bridge. The board will give the Park
Commission blocks and paving bricks
for use at the intersection Of Market
street and the entrance to the park
drive.
A resolution was adopted leasing to
the Harlan g. Hollingsworth Co. Tat
nall street wharf for three years.
The award of condemnation COM
missions, on portions of the old Gilpin
property, of six cents to William Med
holdt and S50.06 to John Craig were
accepted. No action was taken on the
awards of $3.50 for tho Hounsfeld
property. Learning that it was paying
for three electric lights in Brandywine
Park, the board ordered them dis
continued.
Secretary Wiley reported collections
of 81, 145. The weekly payroll of s474, SO
was approved. City Treasurer Curry
reported balances of 1857, 4S9. 40.

Board OF HesIth'. EAro-s, Efforts to Rid tno
CITY of Dread Diphtherin.

At the meeting of the Board of
Health, .Tutsdly night, Secretary Wig
ellsworth reported that he had received
a communication from City Council,
informing him that the board had been
authorized to purchase anti -toxine and
disinfectants in such quantities as may
be necessary to check diphtheria and
stamp it out, and that the bills are to
be sent to City Council. The board
gave Secretary Wigglesworth authority
to use his Judgment in the matter, and
he now has the necessary articles on
hand and is bending every effort
toward stamping out the disease.
Anti toxine will be furnished free to
extremely poor families in which the
disease exists, and the executive
officers have been SO instructed.
Three new cases were reported this
morning, making 40 now on the
records at the health Office, and it is
believed that the physicians are living
up to the law and reporting all cases.
All houses where the disease exists
have been quarantined and immediate
attention is given where new cases are
discovered.
The disease is prevalent in the
southwestern section of the city. There
is one case in South Wilmington and
two on East Thirteenth street, but all
OF the others are in the western part of
the city. There are none in the section
west of Market street and north of
Eighth.
1t is a fact worthy of note that the
physicians and health officers are doing
good work and keeping the death rate
down to the minimum.

Associated rross Dispatch by Special Wires.
Chicago, H., Oct. ga wintry
storm which was central over the
southern end of Lake Michigan pre-
vailed throughout the Northwestern
States the past "a hours. To the west
of Chicago snow fell to the depth of
from two to eight inches, and here aud
to the eastward there was heavy rain
which changed to heavy wet snow at
midnight.
A high gale from the northeast
whipped the snow into raging bliz-
card at many points. Telegraph wires
were blown down at some places and
the telephone service deinoralized.
Deep drifts, which interrupted street
car traffic and threatened to impede
railroad trains and paralyze business,
placed some of the smaller cities in the
grip of winter. Such severity of weather
was entirely unexpected SO early and
has brought suffering to stock. t
On the lakes the gale registered great
velocity and in several instances played
havoc with shipping. For vesselmen
this storm is the toughest of the
season. Danger signals are up all
around Lakes Michigan, Huron and
Superior. 4i
AT several points on the lakes vessels
were reported in distress and the crews
had narrow escapes from drowning. In
Chicago harbor alone 25 vessels put in
for safety.
The force of the storm was felt as
far south as the Gulf of Mexico. Its
effects at different points were varied
and at nightfall the rain that had
been falling in the Ohio valley and
the central and lower Mississippi val
leys turned into snow and soon q
genuine winter blizzard was raging in
those parts of the country. When the
snow started the velocity of the wind
increased. In some places the change
in temperature was SO rapid as to
be almost dangerous to health. The
greatest drop reported in the South was
at Abilene. Texas, where the mercury
fell 26 degrees in few hours.
At Springfield, ILL.,, and Springfield,
Mo-, the temperature dropped % de-
grees during the afternoon; at Daven-
port, and Dubuque, Ia, 26 degrees and
at Chicago % degrees.

HANDY CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS.


Says That the Repatriation Indicates Demo-
cratic victory In Each OF tho Three
Ceunries.sp iliH MI
Congressman L. Irving Handy was in
town yesterday and while here discussed
with County Chairman Neary and john
G. Gray details for the meeting to be
hold in the Bijou Theatre on Friday
night, to be, addressed by Congressman
Joseph w Bailey of Texas. Mr.. Handy
is more than pleased with the present
situation throughout the State.
The Democratic party" said he,
twill carry all three counties. I have
heard from friends in every section Of
the State. The registration last Satur-
day was favorable to the Democrats in
almost every election district. The en-
thusiasm and zeal Of the Democratic
workers brought about this result
have full confidence that the en-
thusiasm aroused by our triumphal
registration will result on election day
in even a larger majority for the Demo-
cratic ticket than appears on the face
of the registration,
'tThe Republicans are disheartened
and detected and will be unable to get
out q full vote even of their followers
whom they have induced to register.
II wish to give special praise to Pat
rick Neary, John d. Hawkins and
Edward W.. Houston, tho three Demo-
cratic county ohairmen, whose work
has been SO successful"
