MAKING READY
FORSTREET PAVING
Municipal Plant Will be in
SiaIied During Latter Part
Of This Year

Street Commissioner Frank w Pierson
is still actively engaged IN making prsra-
rations for the street paving crusade next
spring. For sometime past there has been
a large force of men employed in laying
extensions from the sewers to curhs and
also water service pipes. This work Is
being done by the Street and Sewer De-
partmcnt and the Water Department TIE
gas and electric companies are also iay-
ing pipes and conduits in the streets that
are to be paved so that when the thor
oughfarcs fixed for improvement are
paved they will not be torn up again and
undo the work Of Improvement
IL win take sometime yet 20 finish this
work but by April ! Of next year there
win be enough streets ready TO be paved
TO start in the work Of Improvement. In
the latter part Of the present year the
Street and Sewer Department Will insta
the plant which will be used by the C ty
to do its own paving and it is expected
that it VIII take three months at least 70
thoroughly equip such plant
Aside from man who thoroughly un-
derstands the art of properly mixing the
paving material and three or four rakers,
there are enough mon In the employ OF ire

skilled in the work, TO immed ately sta

DELAWARE COLLEGES REopEN1NG.

HE opening of the scholastic year at Della
= ware College must be very gratifying to
the friends of that institution A freshmen class
of sixty is something OF which the faculty and
trustees may well be proud 1t shows that the
college is surely increasing its hold upon the
teen of the people of the State and that the inst
tuition at Newark will gain the place in our educa-
tonal system to which it is Justly entitled.
To be sure in prosperous times, more young
men attend the higher institutions of learning,
and there has been a steady increase in the per-
centage of young men throughout the country
who attend the higher institutions Of learning.
Delaware College, we believe, has more than
kept pace with the effect Of these influences
1t is also reported from Newark that the new
students better fitted for collegiate course
than similar freshmen classes have been prepared
in the past, and this is an important point 1t is
one thing to have body of students enter under
easy examinations when a showing of numbers
is desired, and quite another thing to have a class
OF incoming students who are we'll fitted for their
studies
The requirements for entrance this year at
Delaware have been made more strict, but this
has not lessened the attendance.
Wilmington is we'll represented in the new
class, and nearly every town in the State is also
represented among the students Not so many
years ago the Wilmington students at Delaware
College were very few.
The departments of the college appear to be
fairly well equipped, although there will be un-
usual pressure upon the engineering course, tech
nical instruction being popular with the students.
The faculty is making special efforts to attract
students to the agricultural department, and the
response received will be noted with interest

WIND And FOG

Scores of Craft Seek Safety
at the Break
water

A 2O-mile wind. with indications Of
an increase in velocity. was sufficient
TO cause vessels of all kinds to seek
the shelter Of the Delaware Break.
water last night. The wind was from
the northeast. and as foggy weather
prevailed only transatlantic liners
braved the dangers Of a storm ard
put to sea. Tho new steel lumber
steamship st. Helens. loaded with 7.0OJ
tons of coal and bound for San Fran
cisco. was among the number that re-
turned to await more favorable condi-
tions.
Last night upward Of SO schooners,
tugs and barges were riding at anchor
inside the harbor of refuge. The barges
had more than 5000 tons Of coal on
board. destined for points in New
England. Unless the weather clears
to-dav few of these vessels will leave
their anchorage. but viii wait until the
barometer shows more favorable
weather conditions. Coastwise coal
and lumber schooners. bound for New
York and other Atlantic coast ports.
thought IL safer to seek the shelter Of
Delaware BrealSwater than continue
their voyage along the coast So many
vessels were at anchor inside the
Breakwater last night that ocean
liners were compelled to navigate with
extra caution to avoid striking smaller
craft.
