colored births were reported, a total
Of 2.072 as compared with 1880 for the
preceding year.
The birth-rate for the year was 22.2T
in the one thousand inhabitants.
The registration OF births is very
incomplete. Every day inquiries are
made at the Board Of Health Office
for the records of births, and IL is
surprising the number of cases which
are found in which no record has been
made.
Marriages.
Wilmington still maintains its re-
putation as a "Gretna Green" and its
fame as a marrying place has reached
far and wide. Within ten years the
number Of marriages performed IN this
city has increased more than four
fold.
During the year 2,777 white and 131
colored marriages were reported a
total Of 2.90s as compared with 1896
for the previous year. In nearly 20 per
cent Of the marriages the contracting

LETTERS BY
TELEGRAPH NOW

Announcement is made by the West
ern Union Telegraph Company that it
will shortly be prepared to handle long
night messages at the rates customar-
lily charged for ten word day messages.
It appears that the Western Union
has a large unemployed mileage Of
wires at night which is not earning
anything. These wires must be OBJ
tained in any event to take care Of the
regular business, and it is apparent
~ the idea of the new interests i'm the
telegraph company 10 let the public
have the benefit of them. The an
nouncement states that " sepcial
Night Letter service will be establish
ed as soon as practicable. The charge
for this service will be the standard
day rate for ten words, for the trans
mission of fifty words or less. and one
fifth of such standard day rate will be
charged for each additional ten words
or less"
To be taken at these rates might
Letters must be written in plain
English language. that is to say, code
words of communications written in
foreign languages will not be accepted.
The messages will be taken at any hour
up to midnight and transmitted at the
oompany's convenience during the
night for delivery the following morn
ing. For the present the new service

Failed to Comply With
City Ordinance

The extension Of time granted by Clerk
of Council McGovern to the milk dealers
Of the city for the securing OF their per-
mits 70 rthe ensuing year, will expire with
to-day and on and after March 1st, all
persons selling milk without permit win
be liable TO the penalty OF the law Up

been made at the Council clerks office
and 15s permits have been issued but ac-
cording to the milk inspectors records
there are about sixty dealers who have as
yet failed TO make application.
1t is the hope Of those in charge of the
issuance Of permits that these delinquent
dealers viii attend to this matter at once
as 1t is the purpose that all dealers shall
comply with the milk ordinance Of the
city, which specifies a Sne before the
Municipal Court for violation theheof.
There Is no charge connected with the So

EAST SIDE STREETS.
MAY LOSE HUMPS
Agitation Against Grades
Takes Form and Petitions
Are Circulating

It became known to-day that the agita-
ton to modify the grades of streets run
ming east and west between Walnut and
King streets started sometime ago is not
all talk but really fact Three petitions
are now being circulated on that side Of
the city which will be presented to the
Street and Sewer Directors calling upon
that department to reduce the grade in
Eleventh street. One of these petitions is
in the hands Of the members of the
Frinedship Fire Company. another with
the Phoenix Fire Company. and the third
is being circulated by Daniel p DuRoss,
member of City Council from the Sixth
ward Many manufacturers and others are
signing the petitions which when present.
ed to the Street and Sewer Directors will
contain hundreds Of names.
The agitation to modify the grades of
the streets in question was started some
time ago by John Hamilton, a coal dealer
at Eleventh and Church streets. He was
about ready to give mp the project when
others became interested and it now looks
as though something is going to be done.
It IS pointed out that between Fourth
and Thirteenth streets. between King and
Walnut streets, there is hardly a street
which Is passable to teams because of the
steep grades and poor pavement on the
thoroughfares.
While the petitions now being circulated
refer to Eleventh street only, it is thought
that the agitation will spread and other
thoroughfares will be taken into consid-
GRAFTON for similar Improvements. There
are several such streets, It is pointed out.
in which the grades could be modified
without causing much damage to prop
orty In fact there is little property along
several of the sleeper of these streets.

Whoever has been throwing ashes,
dead cats and chickens on and in the

UTICA CHEESE FOUNDRIES
MAKE NEW HIGH RECORD,

UTICA, Nov. 15.-The membership Of
the Utica Dairymen's Board of Trade
for the season of 1910 was 3S, a decrease
of 10 as compared with 1909, despite the
fact that the production of cheese was
much larger than last year, and that
the average price was the highest in
the history of the board.
The early markets of the season
found pastures from ten days to two
weeks ahead Of what they we're on the
corresponding dates in 1909. The mar
ket opened IN April 20 with quotation
lower than they were on the CORE
spending date the previous year, but
thereafter they were higher until the
middle of September. While the make
of cheese for the season was much
larger than in 1909, the average Curb
ruling price 14.21 cents per pound, was
considerably higher-in fact, 1t was a
record price. What has been reported
as the Curb ruling price has been more
properly the Curb average price.
