warmer weather has arrived.
For the first time in many day
here man had chance TO pause in
the mad desire to hurry coal into the
furnace and to think up ways and
means as to meeting the bills, etc
The brisk northwesterly winds
which have been blowing the mercury
down to zero weather could not repeat
the dose last night, and the worst
that Wilmington got was 80 degrees
above officially. Having spent It's
fury, the cold wave is now passing )ff
and at 10 o'clock this morning the
warming up process was i'm evidence.
The country is generally warm. and
Wilmington will be warmer tonight IT
will be still warmer weather tomor-
row, when there will be more thawing
going on. Indications are that be-
fore the close Of the week It will warm
up to such an extent as TO make it
sloppy under foot. There is lome
snow In the air but not of sufficient
quantity TO warrant any fear that the
warm spell will bring snow or rain.
Having faith in the local forecast,
preparations were made today for a
cleaning up of the city before the thaw
arrives. With a temperature ranging
from zero 10 10 above It was impos-
sible TO get the snow and ice away
from the tracks and switches. For
the same reason II was practically
impossible to clear streets and side
walks.

DELAWARE AVENUE
RESIDENTS OBJECT

Having received mplaint from
residents along the various streets on
which the local trolley lines are oper-
ated relative to the noise created by
the cars after leaving the car barns IN
the early morning hours and also
when they are proceeding to the
barns, at the close of their runs, the
Street and Sewer Directors are con
sidering a plan to eliminate what is
regarded as a nuisance.
The chief complaint appears to
have come from residents of Delaware
avenue, between Market street and
Union street. The cars of the various
lines Of the Wilmington and Philadel-
phia Traction Company are allowed
TO remain in Delaware avenue above
dupont street over night and all cars
appear to come in the avenue to reach
their respective lines i'll the morn
ings.
According to the plan mapped out
by Charles A. Rudolph, of the Street
and Sewer Department. that depart
ment will likely request the Whining
ton and Philadelphia Traction Com
pany to use the lines on West Front
and West Fourth street to DUPONT
street and then north to the barns in
getting the cars from and to their
night terminal.
1t is felt that this plan, which will,
no doubt, be acceptable to residents
Of Delaware avenue. gives promise OF
being opposed by persons living on
the other streets. It is pointed out by
those living on West Fourth street
that at present, they are annoyed late
at night by the many cross overs and
with additional cars using the lines
at night, and in the morning. sleep
would be impossible. On Delaware
avenue there are but two cross overs
these being at DUPONT and Jefferson
streets, whereas there are four cross
overs on West Fourth street, at Jeffer-
son, Monroe, dupont and Union
streets.
