ated and distinguished by flags, and almost

feeling of much dissatisfaction amo

angry.
The result Is a victory for the 8talwarts,

Stone Yesterday.
The comer stone of a new Catholic
Church at Hockessin waa laid yesterday
afternoon iu the presence of a large crowd
of people. Many people went out on a
special train which left Wilmington at 2
o'clock, and in the party were about a
hundred members of the Ancient Order of
Hibernians, John P. Donahoe, marshal.
The site of the new church is in Hockes

and will have a seating capacity of 300.
The ceremonies of laying the corner stone
were conducted by the Rt. Rev. Bishop

collection amounting to f370 was takeu up.
Official Neglect.
To the Editor of the Gazette :—
Several persons have taken up the Belgian
block pavement on East Fourth street in
order to repair drains, but have not replaced
the stone blocks as they should be, but have
put them down in a bunglesome manner, so
much so that all the blocke are not replaced
and the street Is left in bad condition. This
pavement was put down at con
siderable expense, and is a credit to
the city, but If persons are al
lowed to take it up and repave it as
should be, the street in a short time will be
an eye-sore to those living there. It is the
business of the Street Commissioner to see
that persons taking up the blocks put the
street In as good condition, as they found
lt, or be made to pay a fine. The work
shows for itself on East Fourth street.

A BALLOT
Eighth ^Fard Embrogllo—A Repubil
can Chews a Republican # s Ear.
One of the most disgraceful political row»
which have taken place in Wilmington for m
long time marked the Republican nomina
tion election in the Eighth ward on Satur
day afternoon. Tne Republican ward
workers in the Eighth are noted for their
rowdyism, and
about the polls all afternoon.
A negro attempted to vote near the clos
ing of the polls when his ballot was refused.
It wss claimed that be was a non-resident
and soon there was a lively scene. When
this was at its height Albert T. WingBto
reached through the window. He caught
the ballot box, yanked it out, dashed it
upon the ground, and jumping upon It
mashed it to pieces. Wingate then gathered
up the ballots and destroyed them.
There was great excitement at this time
and policeman Tibbets ran In and caught
John E. Springer, who was about to fight
with Wingate, and held him fast. Wingate ^
ran into his helpless enemy at this juncture,
and with bull-dog ferocity chewed his ear.
No arrests were made.
Later Sparks, acting on the advice of Dr.
T. A. Keables, went before the Mayor and
had a warrant issued for Wingate's arrest.
Saturday night Wingate was held in |300
bail to answer the charge of riotous con
duct It is stated that at the time Wingate
smashed the ballot box that 189 votes had
been cast, and that there was a majority for
Canby and Barney. This would have given
Barney a majority for asseasor, as the votes

[Special correspondence of the Guette. ) it :
Blackbird, Del., Sept. 17. — The Repub
licans turned out in full force on Saturday
93 votes being polled—about 50 white« ana
40 negroes.
A great deal of dissatisfaction is expressed
Mr. Fehnimore, the defeated candidate
for Levy Court. He claims that Mr. Monsiy
secured his nomination by paying the
negroes their day's wages to vote for him
(Money,) and ßays he will remember ft
at the coming election." «very
available Republican was brought nut
on Saturday, for the contest between the
Levy Court candidates was very bitter, and
the result shows a falling off that will create
consternation in camp, although 98 vote* i*
the largest polled for several year» by the
Republicans. Instead of showing strength,
it shows a great weakness in the party s
ranks, for heretofore the nominatlqna have
created no warmth, the candidates being
willing to let things take their courte with
out any trickery. But not so this time; it
was win by fair or foul means.
The Democrats polled 'il'l votes at their
nominatiou, last Saturday, while the Re
publicans after a bitter contest, polled but
93—a fair estimate of what they will poll In
November. In 1880 the Republicans bought
- vote that could be hough! by a liberal
of money, and their candidates averaged
but 104. The Democrats, ou the contrary,
with no money to spend, polled an average
or 337, a clear majority of 18g, and that
will be run up to 175 in 'November» .
Thursday night, will be " closing night "
at Collins Beach, and Mr. Camp Intends to
throw all other closings in the shade. A
splendid supper early in the evening, a
querade party and dancing, will be the Chief
attractions. Prof. Morton of Philadelphia,
