TRAINED MECHANICS 1t IS q
notable fact, and one, too. not gen.
orally known, says the Industrial
World, that some Of the tbest all
around mechanics, 1. O., those who
can turn their hands to all kinds OF
general machine work, are men who
learned their business in small
shops, where all sorts and all class
ess of work are done. An ingen-
ious, thinking man placed in such
shop has the best possible chance
to develop all the talent there is IN
him. The hundred and one odd
Jobs required to be done will cause
him to devise ways and means, and
sto think" and in these ways he
will grow to be man fertile in re-.
sources, dexterous in touch, and
ready for nearly any kind OF work
which may come along. Now mark
the difference: A man trained in a
large shop, with its score or more
of departments, learns or works
through as "a rule one, two, or three
different departments, OF course be-
coming an expert in the several
branches; but should occasion arise
for him to do some particular
work of which he has but slight
knowledge, he is out of his latitude,
and makes poor progress, simply
because he has not done all kinds
of work; while the man trained in
the small shop can adopt his hand
to almost anything which turns
up.

OYSTER WAR.

Maryland War Steamers Run Down and
Capture Oyster Pirates-Several Killed.
ANNAPOLIS, Md, Dec. IA dispatch re-.
ceived here yesterday states that there has
been an engagement between the States
navy steamer Governor Mclean and the
pirate dredgers and two of the dredgers
were sunk and a number of them cap.
tured. One Of the crew of the Governor
Mclean was shot This is the first fight
between the State fishery force and the
dredgers since the steamers have been
provided with cannon.
The fight took place at He'll Point, at the
mouth of the Chester river. To the sur
prise of the dredgers the captain of the
McLane used his cannon as we'll as his
rifles. The Secretary of State of Mary land
has been notified from Washington that
six more cannon will be sent Immediately.
This morning the steamers B. s. Ford
and Gratitude from Chester river met the
steamer McLane and the schooner Baugh-
man conveying captured dredger, the
Maggie Corbett. to Centrevile for trial.
just off He'll Point the two sunken
dredges were passed. The sails were still
up and were riddled with shot.
Captain Rice, of the schooner J.. g.
Mahoney, one of the two sunken vessels,
said in a statement at Centerville last night
that the steamer Governor McLane had
rammed his vessel, and that two of his
crew, the mate and the cook, were killed
by the bullets from the steamer.
Peter Mullen. cook on board the schooner
Julia A. Jones, says he was the only man
out of a crew of eleven to escape.
Baltimore oyster packers declare if the
war continues they will be compelled to
shut down for want of stock. They say
that where dredgers are allowed to work
there are very few oysters, and that q
large portion of the unlawful ground is
not worked by the loungers because the
water is too deep. The supply furnished
by the loungers would not begin to be
sufficient for the use of packing houses,
and the dredgers must steal or get no oys.
tiers. The dredgers declare that they are
desperate and will have oysters at no
matter what cost.
A large feat of dredgers is reporte to
be on unlawful ground and it is
not unlikely that there will be another
fight this morning as the police boats
have gone back to the scene of Mondays
fight and declare they will drive the
pirates off
