Oysters, being scavengers, fat ten fastest in ocean waters fed by river drainage. This explains! why ovstermen transfer the oysters by ship loads from the bays along the Atlantic, coast, wht re they multiply rapidly, but wnere, m consequence ot tne i . ark of food, thev are stunted in - . growth, to the estuaries of Con . ' necticut, Aew ork and New . ' . ,. . 1 by many of the oyster growers J ' " w.-., that if the bivalves could be faN ! ten d in pure sea water they Would be of better flavor as well as more wholesome. The dif ficulty has been to prov ide the proper food. After seven years of experiment these oyster growv ers have hopes that the difficulty has been overcome. The new method, which aims to supply the requirements of pure water and the necessary food has been put in practice on the shores of eastern Virginia, situated, as it is, near the end of the peninsula, there are no streams of any size flowing into the bay and the T'i-' 11 i tril 11 ttr 'i c flint riT tli , , -. , r ., , , grouiirl that fringes the bay a number ol parallel canals arc to be excavated, the sea water be ing admitted into them by sluice gates. In these canals the oyster will be grown. The molusks will find there their natural food, which consists of diatoms and other minute algae, which are reproduced in prodigious quan tities under the conditions exist ing of the mixture of salt water with a small percentage of fresh water. The practicability of the plan has already been shown on a small scale. Thus far the practice has been followed of transplanting the small oysters from the beds of the canals. But with the plan in full operation this will not be necessary, as the canals open right on the breed ing grounds, and during the early summer, when the spawn is given off, it will float into the canals, and oyster beds will be planted naturally. Other advan tages claimed for til"3 new method of culture are the eas exclusion of ihe enemies or" the oy ster and the c Miveuieuce of harvesting. New York Post. Sent Up For Six Years. Stedman Williams, who mur dered an infant a few months aero at Beaufort, X. C, a full ac- count of which appeared at the j time in the columns of the Fish- ; khmax 6c Farmhs, is now in j tne penitentiary serving a term of six wars at hard labor. Williams was one of the de fendants 111 the noted cases in which citizens of Beaufort were tried for fraud, forge rv and con srnracv in life insurance. Wil A Hams' wife, whose life was iu sured for a good, large amount, died under suspicious circum stances, and many people thought he would be tried for murder. Not many months after his wife died, he married a young wo man; shortly after the marriage the bo Iv of a dead infant was i accidentally discovered; the par entage was traced back to Wil liams and his bride. It was not known at first whether the child was born dead. Williams and his bride spent their honeymoon in jail at Beaufort. At the last term of the Supe rior court at eauforl. ended Friday last, the grand jury brought iii a true bill against Williams for "concealing the VorMi 1 I .1 i-!ili1 " Me was eons victe I. and the judge sentenced ! him to six y.ars in the penue. tiarv.

An Inporlant Factor in Commerce. WORK TO BEGIN IN THIRTY DAYS AND TO BE COMPLETED BY JANUARY 189S. The Baltimore Sui of Tuesday says: A contract for the recon struction of the famous old Dis mal Swamo Canal has been awarded by the Lake Drummond Canal and Water Company to Patricuts McMauus, of Philadel phia. The work is to begin within thirty days and to be com pleted by January, 1898. By the reconstruction of this canal an important link will be filled in a system of inland water ways from Boston to Florida. When opened for traffic the canal will give to an extensive section of the Southern States the valuable advantage of barge service for handling freight. Barges of large capacity in tow of tugs will be enabled to take this inland route from Norfolk to the Pamlico and Albemarle Sounds of North Carolina, avoid ing the perils of Cape Hatteras. . The contract covers the con struction of a completed canal, ready for business, with locks, dams, approaches, waste weirs, all necessary excavation, clear ing, ditching, bridging, drains, wooden culverts and conduits. This work will extend over the whole route of the canal from a place on the Elizabeth river, four miles from Norfolk, Va., to a place where the canal empties into the Pasquotank river, near South Mills, N. C. The specifi cations call for the construction of a new dam and lock in Deep Creek, near Norfolk; w ste weirs at Deep Creek, South Mills and Northwest river, without gates, each to be 100 feet long; four drawbridges at road crossings, each to have 40 feet span and be 14 feet wide. Deepening and enlarging oi the present channel is also specified. A clear depth of 10 feet of water from Deep Creek lock to South Mills lock, with a width of 40 feet on the bottom and 60 feet at water level is to be given. The;e are to be ten "turnouts" provided between these places. Each turnout is to be 20 feet wide on the bottom, and at least 200 feet loug, curving out at each, end to make uniform condi tion with the banks. For 1,000 feet at Deep Creek and South Mills, the icspective northern and southern termini of the canal, is to be widened to 80 feet at the bottom. A feeder about three miles long is to be constructed to Lake Drummond. The total length of the canal from Deep Creek to South Mills is about 22 miles. Right of way 300 feet wide in Virginia and 150 Jeet wide through North Carolina is owji- cd by the company. Moses Pender Caught. - Governor Carr on Tuesday naid a hundred dollars reward to C. W. Dunn, of Scotland Neck, for the capture of Moses Pender. Sometime ago Pender committed an atrocious murder in Edge eombe county. Since that time; he has been in hiding, and the Governor offered $100 reward for his capture. He has been placed in the jail atTarboro.

Bill Arp in the Atlanta Consti- tutio7i says: That Fitzgerald set tlement is an episode that is as unaccountable as it is sudden. Over 6,000 people families of pensioned soldiers have drop ped down upon us without warn ing and are. building a city in our pine woods. Their pension money, it is said, amounts to nearly a million dollars a year, and their comrades keep coming They are said to be good, indus trious people and sound in wind and limb and nobody can see from the outside where the pen sion business comes in, but never theless they are drawing the money and our folks are bound to get some of it. Six thousand are on the way and before long they will own the country and be voting the Democratic ticket. So let them come I repeat it sir, let them come, as Patrick Henry said.. They have settled in the best portion of Georgia. vVe didn't know it till recently. The pine woods have for half a cen tury been under the ban, The few people who settled there were considered half-fed, tallow faced, long-legged crackers who raised a few poor cattle and razor-back hogs, and lived on 'taters and hard shell religion. But all that wide belt from Lin Coin through Putnam and Hous ton and Irwin and Sumpter and Randolph and on westward into Alabama is now known to be a most fruitful and productive re gion, and the climate perfectly delightful. It is like a fairy tale to read what the last ten years have developed in that belt of country that is underlaid with a clay subsoil and overdressed with pine forests. In recent years I have been watching the fruit in dustries of Marshallville and Cyclonette and Pifson and Cuth bert with amazement, and de light, aud my information is that the adjacent country is equally productive and delightful. The Georgia Southern railroad splits this region right in the middle, and along its line has been plant ed within ten years, by actual count, 742,000 fruit trees, cover ing orchards of 13,400 acres. The land devoted to melons is much more, and besides this the growers raise corn and cotton laud sugar cane and potatoes and ground p?as enough to sustain all family expenses a thing of beauty and joy forever, and it is a fascinating feast to the eye to travel over this line of road and take notes of the beautiful im provements that meet the eye at every station. Mr. Sparks build ed wiser than he knew when he was building this road through a region that everybody said was desolate and always would be. Dame Nature is ever unlocking her treasures and she has onlv re cently unlocked the pine woods to our Southern friends. But Georgia is not the only State tint has been found by the refuges from the long winters and snow clad fields of the icy North. We see by the papers that the hegira has begun from all ovrer that frozen country, aud that Alaba ma and Mississippi are rapidly filling up with prosperous immi grants. It is the swelling tide that has just begun to overflow the South and every letter that a settler writes back to his wintry home will bring ten more for these people are surprised to find that we are kind and hospitable, aud that the barbarians of the South have mo'ed away. Still in Good Shape. (Roanoke News.) The comet which was recently discovered heading for this little j earth ot ours, and which was to I have hit us a good square lick I Saturday failed to materialize land the earth is in good shape. ; Many pepple actually believed that the comet was to strike the j earth Sunday and a few were really nervous about it. These scientists are really clever fellows. In all their predictions there is always a hole left big enough for them to crawl through. For instance, they said the comet would strike un less the earth wras spry enough to dodge it, in which event it would miss aud go shooting -on towards the sun. Well, it missed, of course, and now the knowing: ones will say, "just as we pre dicted." When will the people learn to accept the great truths of the Bible and know for a certainty that 110 living human being on earth can know anything about how, or when the earth is to be j destroyed? II DIG FIBE Occurred Last Monday at Philadelphia. NO LIVES LOST, $450,000 Worth of Property Goes up in Smoke. A most destructive fire occur red on the 23rd at Philadelphia, which, for a ime, threatened to prove as disastrous as the fire of Feb. 3, when the seven story Hazletine building and that of the Baptist Publication Society were destroyed. The fire broke out about 5 o'clock in the six story building of the Thackora Manufacturing Company, dealers in fancy gas fixtures and cande labra. The firm employs about 200 hands who were at work at the time. A majority of the workmen made their escape. A dozen or more were hemmed in and were taken from the win dows by the firemen. The building is valued at $300,000, fully insured. The rear part was but slightly damaged The loss on the building amount to about $ 1 50,000. The Thackx era company's stock, machinery and patterns, was valued at about 250,000. They are a total loss, but are protected by an insure auce of $150,000. A number of others who had offices in the building met with considerable losses. Novel Plan to Get a Wife. Valentine Stark, a medical graduate, was arrested last week at Pittsburg, for scattering circu lar letters in the residence por tions of the city. In the circular Stark described his ideal of a wife, whom he wanted. At court Stark told a rambling story as follows : "I am a medical graduate. I first located in Baltimore, went to Cincinnati, then to St. Louis, aud wound up in Atlanta. I came to Pittsburg for religious reasons. Like most young men, I would like to get married. I traveled all over the country, but failed to find the ideal of my dreams. I came to Pittsburg to find the young wOman I sought. "Monday night I began up near the Cathedral to distribute let ters for the most handsome wo man in the house. You will see by the letter, Judge, tbat I do not address any young woman in particular. I describe her as of youthful countenance and cover ed with smiles, her hair cast in an auburn mold and human X-rays lurding in her eyes. She must be in good health, a Chris tian, and have illimitable love for Mr. Right that means me. Now, no one needed to answer that unless she was the type of girl I described. I do not waut an angel, but a woman whose cathode rays will harmonize with mine." The love-lorn youth was held over aud locked up. Reform. A rhymer in the Washington Star gives the following defini tion of reform: "Reform is a great moral throb Whose cause we scarce can trace, Which makes some big mau lose his job And puts me in his place."

The North Carolina Supreme Court will not take up the grave yard insurance cases from Cars teret county until the September term. South Carolina has been en deavoring to prevent drummers from soliciting orders for liquor in the State, but the United States Court says that they have a right to solicit such orders. Ex Sheriff J M. Monger, of Moore, is working on the roads of that county as a convict under three-months sentence for re tailing liquor in Sanford, a dry own. Benjamin H. Wiliken, for sev eral years the private secretary of Senator Harris, of Tennessee, has been acquitted of the charge of house breaking with intent to commit rape on Miss Gertrude Phillips, daughter of ex-Solicitor General Phillips, of Washington, D. C. The North Carolina Supreme Court decided that though the revenue act wras not signed by the President of the Senate or the Speaker of the house, the machinery act was signed and that the two are virtually one act, as the machinery act was signed properly. The court says the twro acts are really one. So the State gets the tax. A Pennsylvania man recently presented his wife with a piano lamp, which she said she would call after him. On asking her reason, she replied: "Well dear, it has a good deal ot brass about it, it is handsome to look at it is not remarkably brilliant, requires a good deal of attention, is liable to explode, flares up occasionally, is always out at bedtime and is bound to smoke."

It has been decided by the su preme court of Michigan that it is not a prejudicial error in the trial of a criminal case for the prosecuting attorney to call the witness for the defense a "lot of liars" a "lot of dirty pups who ought not to be believed" if the circumstances of the case seem to justity the truth of the assertion. The court says that while such language' is severe, there is no rule prohibitingan attorney from expressing his opinion of the truthfulness of witnesses wdierc their testimony is conflicting, and the jury will be called upon to decide between them.

FRUIT AS A MEDICINE. More Virtue in a Basket cf Ber ries Than in a Whole Drug Store. Very few people are aware of tne medicinal qualities of grapes; but these they possess. The pulp is nutritious, and the juice contains sugar, tannic acid.bitar trate ot potassium, tartrate of calcium, common salt and sul phate of potassium. Without doubt, the woman who cultivates the habit of eating a great deal of fruit is the gainer of health ana appearance. 1 lie grape mut, or shaddock, so called from its discoverer, Lieut. Soaddock, or, to mention its soft Chinese name, pumelo, is highly prized by those who live in malarial localities. It is a charming rival to quinine and bonset, and is driving them from the field. She who cats her grape fruit with a spoon from the natural cup, or relishes it served as a salad, may gladden her heart with the re flection that she is not only pleas ing her palate, but benefiting her health. Like orancres and lem ons, the grape fruit has great midicinal virtues. If you are of a bilious temperament, eat irrape fruit; it fever threatens, eat grape fruit, but in this latter case do so I only at the advice of a physician, v . . . i as there mav be certain tenden cies which the grape fruit would only aggregate. The complaint is often made that this fruit is ex tremely bitter and unpleasant. It is only the white inner rind which is so, and this should be carefully removed. Scientific American. A RIOT AT INDIANAPOLIS. serious i'ight uktwkkn union men and non-union men. A riot broke out at Indianap olis Saturday between the non union men employed in the iron works of Chaudler & Taylor and a number of strikers and their sympathizers. Three men were shot, one fatally, and a number of men were more or less injured by flying stones and bricks. The trouble originated over the fact that a number of non union men are employed in the works taking the places of the members of the Union. A num ber of fights have occurred at different times and the workmen were constantly under police guard. Saturday night the of ficers started to take them to their homes when they were set upon by the mob. It is esti mated that 110 less than 3,000 persons were in the neigborhood at the time, many of them tak ing part iii the fight. The non union men opened fire, first after they had been pelted with bricks and stones. The fire was return ed by the strikers. The men shot were all by standers and had nothing what ever to do with the trouble. One policeman was also seriously in jured bv being struck with a brick. A number of arrests were made. Toe Southern States Settlers Convention. As a means of presenting to the people of the Northern and Western States, as well as to the outside world, the true status of affairs in the Southern States, the advantages of climate and soil; the low price at which farm ing lands can be purchased, and the opportunities for thi profit able investment of capital, the Southern Interstate Immigration and Industrial Association have arranged for holding a conven- tion at Southern Pines, N. C, on Tuesday, May 5th, the object be ing to gather together a number of Northern and Western people and persons from foreign coun tries wdio have settled in the South, that as a body they may express to the world their opin ion of the Southern country in all its phases. The belief is that the expressions of such a body will have an influence for the good of the South that cannot be obtained in any other way. The Governors of several States have appointed delegates and a full representation is desired.

Seaman and his sou Isaac, arc at the point of death at Walnut Lake, Ark., due to gun shot wounds, and Isaac Hang ston, who did the shooting, i also badly injured as the result of a battle which was fought at that village last Saturday. The cause dates back eight months. On the night of July 4th Miss Sadie Seaman, daugh ter and sister of the dying men, who had been receiving attention from Hangston, returned late from an euteitainment, which had been given at the house of a neighbor. The young woman went to her room ;to retire and and soon after she entered Hang ston came out of a closet. 111 which he had been concealed. Miss Seaman screamed and Hang ston ran down stairs. The parents of the girl, attract ed by the outcry, saw Hangston hurriedly leave the house with a pistol in his hand. He made his escape and was not heard of until last September, when he surrendered to the authorities and was indicted for attempted burglary, assault with intent to kill and attempted assault. The feud between the families and friends of Seaman and Hangston has been kept up ever since, but there was no bloodshed until last Saturday. THE NAVY BILL. Provides for Four Battleships and Fifteen Torpedo Boats. The naval appropriation for the coming fiscal year, says a dis patch from Washington, has been agreed to by the House Committee on Naval Affairs. The bill carries an appropriation ot $3i.;7y.i.38 of. which $12, 611,034 is for the increase of the navy. The President is author ized to have constructed by con tract four sea going coast line battleships, designed to carry the heaviest armor and most power ful ordiance.upon a displacement of about 1 1 ,000 tons, to have the highest possible speed for vessels of their class, and to cost, exclu sive of armament, not exceeding $3f75000 each, and fifteen tor pedo boats.
