THOUSAND CITY
Police Department Census
Figures Show Total Pop
ulation is Now IO6,374
Increase OF 1O,9O3
IN LAST five YEARS

Wilmington has reached the proud
distinction Of being a city of over 10O.-

police officers, who made as accurate
and careful a census as was possible.

Black and House Sergeant Howgate,

ed in by the census takers. This
work was completed this morning and

in the city, leads in population, with
total Of 1883. The Ninth ward
shows a wonderful increase. and is
second with 1898. The Fifth ward
is third with a total OF 1859. The
First ward has the smallest popula-
tion. 1923.
The census shows that the total
white male population is 50,O3S, and
white females 1925. The total col
ored male population is. males, 1884
and females. 5,05S. In the case oi
