THE FISHING SEASON CLosISG.-The fishing
season Is drawing to close. Messrs. Coale &
Bailey, who have been fishing at Garrett Island,
cut ont on Monday, and other large hau lers and
gillers will also cease operations this week.
The seasons catch has been large of both shad
and herring. The latter, indeed, have been
caught in countless numbers and TO avoid en-.
numbering the nets with them opportunities
were given them TO escape, the shad alone being
wanted. Messrs. Geo. X. Carver Il Co., at
Spesutia Island, caught 1850 shad ut one hanl,
together with four or five thousand herring, the
haul being delayed half an hour, when within
several hundred yards of the shore, TO enable
the herring to pass out of the seine. Their exit,
an observer relates, was like the water rushing
through mill-race.
The season, it is said, has been the best for
years. Gillers realized net profit of 80 per
hundred for shad, aud tho seine haulrrs nearly
as much-the gllcrs having begun operations
early in the season, when prices were highest.
The Susquehanna river, on Tuesday, was high
and muddy and if this condition of affairs has
continued it will put total stop to fishing, as
the drift wood coming down the river inicrfercs
with the seines.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE COUNTY COMMISSION
ERs.-The Commissioners were occupied chief.
ly, on Monday and Tuesday, in making trans
ters and attachments.
On Monday Messrs. Whitciord and Rouse,
School Commissioners and Mr.. John d. Worth
| ington, Secretary of the School Board, waited
upon the Commissioners with their estimate of
the amount necessary to run the public schools
for the ten months ending September 30th,
1889. They estimate that it will require
siS, $50 to keep the schools up TO their present
standard Of efficiency. Also, that there are
needed the following sums:
For new school house at Forest Hill, 81 200 ;
for new school house at Mount Pleasant, 4th
district, 500; for new school house at Van
Bibbcr station, LIST district 500 Total,
$4,000
They also set forth that the school houses at
Chenille, Sarah Furnace and Union Cross
Roads are totally unfit for school purposes.
The houses at Forest Hill and Mount Pleasant,
they say, are too small to accommodate the
large number of pupils attending them the
mouse at Mount Pleasant being so dilapidatcd
that unless new one is built the school will
have to be closed
OF the sum required by the School Board
So, BIS will have to be provided for by the
county.
The School Board say that their resources
from the State have steadily decreased for a
number of years, being this year Ss2l21 less
than for the previous year. They therefore ask
the County Commissioners to appropriate 1G

SUIT FOR DAMAGEs.-The case of John n.
Janney VS.. Drs. P. B. Housckecper and d. L..
Clifford which was removed from Cecil county
to the Circuit Court for Hartford county, began
on Tuesday. There was an imposing array of
counsel on both sides, the plaintiff being repre-
sented by Messrs. Constable and Warburton,
of Elkton, and VIM. Young and VanBibber of
Bel Air, while the defendants counsel were
Mcssrs. Evans, Falls and Crothers, of Cecil, and
Maynadier, of Bel Air. Mr.. Janney's suit is for
$40, 600 damages for the loss of his wife, who
he alleges died from the effects of an operation
performed by Drs. Housekceper and Clifford. The
operation was performed in May, 1886 The
wound was treated afterwards, but in October,
1885, Mrs. Janney was taken sick and died in
the following December.

examined for the plaintiff. Upon the close of
the examination in chief for the plaintiff coun-
sci for the defendants submitted q prayer to the

ground that sufficient evidence had not been
submitted to connect the death OF Mrs Janney
with the operation performed, and also the
n-joinder of DR.. Mitchell in the suit he hav-
ing taken part in the operation Ex.Judgc
Maynadier made the argument for the defend
