Fox Ch on the Street.
There was quite ad exciting time in the.
eastern part. of the city" Monday night,
caused by a detachment of the Wilmington
Fox Club, with about thirty dogs, under
the charge of John McKoy, starting a fox
in what is known as. "Noble's Neck" and
chasing him into the city limits. The di
rection of the fox was down Red Cross to
Fourth, out Fourth to ' Market, up Market
to Eighth, out Eighth to Mulberry, down
Mulberry to ' Seventh, out Seventh to Red
Cross, down -Red Cross to Fifth, and out
Fifth to Walnut, where it succumbed. The
moon shone brightly and the chase was an
interesting andexciting one, causing a gen
eral rush to the doors-and windows to see
what it all meant.

to the enrollment f public school children
in this city, saysA '$te. presume that there
must be many private schools in, Wilming-'
ton.". Our cotemporary can, safely bet . on
.that.,-. The school census shows the total
number of school children from . 6 to. 21'
years of ageia Wilmington to be 5,068, of
which 1,952 are white, and 3.116 colored.
r q there are a total of 950 enrolled in
I the public schools, of which 375 are white.
I and 575 .colored. From this" statement it
wiU be seen .that there, are 1,577 ; white
J children net enrolled in the public, schoojs,
schools. . Of the colored children there are
J 2,541 not enrolled, '-and it is estimated that
about 600 of these are attending private
schools. , ,
The school facilities in Wilmington, both
public and private, are hardly excelled by
any other city of the same size in the Uni
ted States, at least in the preparatory de-
niLrfmpnb and if tnv rtf nur o'hildrftn fail
to secure a fair education it will not be for
the lack of an opportunity.
6ne great advantage in our public or
ffraded schools is the fact that none but
good teachers are selected, and in securing
them reference is not only had to their edu
cational acquirements, but to the qualifica-.
tiohs necessary to maintain good dis
cipline and, at the same time make
the schools pleasant and popular with
the Children. Our school committee
men are men who take an ear
nest interest in the schools, make it
their object to visit them frequently and do
all they can to encourage and stimulate
those in charge of them in the performance
of thei arduous duties.
Our graded schools are also fortunate in
having secured the services of such a man
as Prof. Noble to supervise them, as he has
shown himself not onl experienced and
sire and ambition to make them second to
none on the score of efficiency.
