defamation has reached here that =
.;x-vear.old son Of James Reed, OF
Chincotesgue Island, was drowned
some DAYS ago. The little fellow was
standing on wharf fishing, when
he fell over. and was drowned before
assistance coeld reach him.
A party Of young ladies and gentle
men who went down Folly creek Thurs
day from Aecomack Courthouse to the
sea-shore were capsized by q gust oil
wind in Metomkin inlet as they were
returning home about nightfall. They
chung to the sides of the sloop till some
fishermen, who fortunately saw the ac-
cident. came to their rescue. The fish
ermen's boat was small, and two OF the
gentlemen, being good swimmers, had
70 swim ashore. The tide was gong
out at the time that the accident occur
red. and If the anchor had not fallen
out of the capsized sloop and held 1t
fast, all would probably have been
swept out TO sea and drowned.
Quite sensation prevails here over
the reported defalcation Of James IL.
Hutchinson, oyster inspector for this
district. Mr.. Hutchinson was arrested
Thursday and carried to Accomask
Courthouse, and there bailed to appear
before the next court. The amount OF
defalcation is said to exceed 81 900.
The Southern Methodist camp-meet-
ing near here has been somewhat inter-
rupted by the settled rain that has been
falling for the past twenty-four hours.
and still continues. The large taber-
nacle and the comfortable tents will,
however, afford shelter for enough peo-
pie to keep the meeting a-going.
The Accomack Baptist Association,
comprising all the churches Of that
denomination on the Eastern Shore Of
Virginia, will begin its annual session
at Zion church, this county, on next
Thursday, the 18th, and not week after
next, as was enormously stated in this
correspondence few days ago.
Extensive preparations are being
made for the coming exhibition of the
Eastern-Shore Agricultural Associa-
ton, which will begin on the 25th of
the present month and continue four
days. Fine crops, the enlargement of
the premium list, and the increased
facilities of reaching the Fairgrounds
which are near Keller station, on the
new railrad, will insure finer exhi-
hilton and a larger attendance than
ever before.
Mr.. Thomas c. Harrison. a worthy
citizen, died at his home, near here, seve-
raj days ago, of cancer Of the stomach,
making the second death resulting from
this terrible disease that has occurred
in this community in the last three
weeks. KALLIAS.

and, secondly, on simple filtration,
which merely separates the noxious
matters which had been previously at
tackled by the iron. The waters Of the
Nethe are exceptionally bad and heavily
charged with impurities, so that the
test both Of Professor Bischof's and Sir
Frederick Abel's systems has been very
severe.

MARROW ESCAPE FROMDEATH
Mrs. DIR. Deiuvan saved After Floating in
the Water for Nine Hours.

the Water for Nine Hours.
An Albany special says: The body
Of DR.. j. S. Delavan arrived from Tup-
per's lake early this morning. From
the account Of the accident given by
Mrs. Delavan her escape seems remark
able. She says that when the Doctor
fired at hawk the recoil Of the gun
was so great as to throw him back and
upset the boat. AS he struck the water
he called to his wife that they would only
get a ducking, and told her to cling
to the boat. For moment no one real
lied that there was any danger. as they
were only thirty-fve feet from shore.
When Mrs. Delavan began to sink she
remembered a previous injunction of
her husband always to hold her breath
under water. She did so, and soon
arose. Coming up, she saw the guide
sitting on the upturned boat, but her
husband was nowhere in sight. Clutch
ing the craft, she asked where the Doc
tor was. At that instant something
seemed to hit the boat on the
opposite side, and it turned again,
throwing the guide into the water.
Neither the Doctor nor the guide
reappeared. A confused wound on
the Doctors right temple is regarded as
conclusive proof that he hit the boat as
he rose and was stunned. When
neither the Doctor nor Clark re-
appeared Mrs. Delavan first fully real
lied her perilous position. In spite Of
her efforts to reach land she drifted
further out into the lake. After being
in the water two or three hours the
noise Of escaping steam mingled with
voices was heard near at hand. She
called for aid with all her might,
but peninsula hid her from
view, and the noise Of the ma
chinery and steam prevented the
party on the passing steam.yacht
from hearing her cries. During the after
noon Mrs. Delavan chung to the boat
with hopes Of rescue. AS night came
on she almost gave up in despair. 1t
was nearly Q o'clock--nine hours after
the accident-when a guide who had
started out to look for the missing party
came upon her floating on the water in
a nearly exhausted condition. Her re-
covery, after the exposure and the
frightful ordeal through which she
passed, is considered extraordinary.
The funeral of DR.. Delavan will take
place tomorrow, and will be attended
by the State Board of Health and many
State officials.

FOR THE GOVERNMENT.

The Case Of the Great Falls Dam Decided b.
JUDGES Bond and Morris In Favor OF the
Government Water-W orka
In the United States Circuit Court for
the district of Maryland on Monday
Judges Bond and Morris filed an opin-
ion denying an injunction in the case OF
the Great Falls Manufacturing Com
pany of Virginia against Augustus Ii.
Garland, Attorney-General OF the
United States; William G. Endicott, Sec
rotary of War Of the United States;
Major Garrett j. Lydecker, engineer,
and George b. Chittenden and Samuel
II. Chittendsn, contractors for certain
work on the Washington city water
works.
The bill asked the court to enjoin the
building Of dam and other structures
acrsss Conn's Island and across the
Potomac river from Conn's Island to
the Virginia shore, and the building of
other structures and works in connec-
tion Herewith on land alleged to belong
to the Great Falls Company, near the
Great Falls Of the Potomac river, in
Maryland, until the company had been
paid for the land. The opinion Of the
court fills twenty-six pages of legal
cap. After reviewing the law and the
facts at length, the Court says:
1.-THE officers Of the Government,
knowing that in any event the water
supply must be taken from the Great
Falls Of the Potomac without waiting
for the completion Of the proceedings
by which the compensation was to be
ascertained, proceeded, as directed by
the act Of Congress, TO construct the
dam and other works. This application
for an injunction is made some eighteen
months after these works were COM
mepced, and after contracts had been
made. costly cofier-dams put down in
the river, and other expensive prepare
tions made for pushing the work
during the summer months. If the
injunction should issue now and the
work be interrupted until the meet
ing Of Congress, much Of this large

A Vienna special says: Extensive
preparations are being made for the
meeting Of the Gar and the Emperor OF
Austria, which will take place shortly
at Kremsier, a town Of Moravia, on the
March. The cost Of the decorations
and other arrangements for the
meeting viii reach 1000, 900 flo
rims. The greatest efforts are
being put forth by the authorities to
prevent any attempt being made on the
life Of either Of the potentates. Hun
dreds Of the most experienced and
trusted policemen and detectives have
been drafted for service at the town.
Precautions have already been taken to
prevent the mining OF any portion OF
the town, and great care is being
taken in regard TO the transportation
Of dynamite and other explosive ma
terials. All parcels and boxes
destined for Kremsier are carefully ex-
amined before being permitted to be
sent to the town. The names and oc-
equations Of all the dodgers and Of all
strangers arriving in town have been
ordered to be furnished TO the police
authorities by the proprietors of hotels
and lodging-houses. No person will be
admitted to the town after the Goth in

expenditure will be sacrificed. With
ont. therefore, undertaking to sanction
any rule by which in general property
may be taken into possession without
compensation Hrst being made, even
when not expressly forbidden by con-
stitutional or legislative provision, it
does seem to US that this is case in
which we should decline to interfere
by injunction at this time II the means
provided by the act Of Congress to
ascertain the amount of compensation
are adequate and proper and the pay
ment Of the amount when ascertained
reasonably provided for and assured.
at is urged that after the judgment
Of the Court Of Claims has been OBJ
tanned the failure Of Congress to pass
a law appropriating money to pay the
Judgment would defeat the complain
ants efforts to get payment for its
property. This is true, but it is also
true that Congress always has hereto
fore appropriated the money required
TO pay the judgments Of the Court of
Claims, and as it has specially desig-
mated this court as the tribunal
to ascertain what amount shall be
paid to the company, nothing but a
flagrant breach Of good faith could de-
lay the payment. The possibility Of
such action on the part Of Congress I'M
der all the circumstances Of this case
we do not think sufficient to justify the
issuing of preliminary injunction. IL
the complainant is SO advised this cause
may be continued, so that hereafter, if
it should indeed prove to be true that
certain and adequate provision has not
been made for payment of the amount
which shall be ascsrtained to be due to
the complainant, the further action Of
this court may be invoked"

GIMME MESSENGER SERVICE.
Dogs to be Used In Carrying Messages to
telegraph Offices.

Telegraph Offices.
A writer in London newspaper sug-
gests the formation Of corps of mes
senger dogs to take the place Of or sup
Element the commissionaires and the
telegraph boys of the London streets.
The dogs would be uniformed
to the extent of a Distinguishing
badge around their necks-aAl woul1
be divided pp-.hto districts, each sta
TONED at a certain street corner from
which he knew his way well to the
nearest postal telegraph Office. When
a man wanted to have telegram sent
or letter mailed he would whistle to
the dog, slip the money and the mes
sage into bag at the dogs throat and
send him off, when he would be ex-
pected to make a Decline for the ac-
customed office, whence he would be
again sent to his street corner with an
answer, if necessary to wait for an
other customer.
If the scheme should be thought
worth the trying, remarks the Mime
apolis Tribune, there is no reason why
it SHOULD not be successfully carried
out. Every one can recall instances,
which he has seen or heard of, Of dogs
which had been taught to call regu-
larly for the family mail or the news
paper and take it to their master, and
in some parts of rural England the in
telligent beasts have been pressed
into Government service, and cover a
regular postal route every day. What,
then, is there to prevent them being
regularly organized into corps and
taught to do the small Offices which
would be required Of them as mes
senger dogs? No one who thinks Of
all the dogs he has known and who re-
members the famous dogs Of history
will doubt their intelligence and fidsli-
ty. And in some particulars the dog
would certainly be an improvement
upon the messenger boy. Dogs do not
play marbles, nor will they 60 many
blocks out Of their way to fol-
low a circus. No one ever saw dozen
hounds sitting on their launches watch
ing man peddling patent match-safes,
and they are proof against the seductive
influence of fire-alarm. The messen-
ger youth, on the other hand, is a frail
thing, easy Of temptation, and subject
to mortal weakness. Whatever other
results, then, would follow the mobiliza-
ton of this novel army, the public
would at least gain in rapidity of service,
while the Government Tor the company
which managed the dogs would be free
from all apprehensions Of strike among
its employees.

A New York Grocer and His FamilS Lodged
In a Siaiion.House.
A Pittsburgh special says; A man,
a woman, and little child, all wretch
eddy poor, went to the Allegheny may
or's Office to-day and were given lodg-
ings for the night. The husband and
father gave his name as William Price,
and said that he had been the owner Of
large grocery on Fourteenth street,
New York, until May last, when it was
burned, with his all. He started busi-
ness in New York again with money
from insurance, but was unsuccessful.
One child died, expenses came, and
long sickness followed, until he was
penniless. He then walked to Phila-
delphia with his wife and child.
There he sought in vain for perma-
nent employment, and having earned a
trife started West on foot. Pittsburgh
was reached on Friday night, and the
vain search for work resumed. On the
way West the family stopped two nights
in stock-yards, and the husband could
have found work taking cattle East, but
be would not desert his wife, whose
courage and cheerfulness had thus far
sustained him.
Price is thirty-two years old, his
wife is twenty-nine, and his boy four.
He says he will 60 to Cleveland if he
cannot find work here.
