a Tug Cut Her In Two as One OF the
Acts in an Oyster War.
BALTIMORE, Md. Nov. 27.-A special
dispatch to the Sun tonight from Reads
vile, Va, says: ''The schooner Lawson Of
Cristfeld, Capt George Evans, was to-day
sunk off the upper end Of Hog Island, in the
Potomac river, by the tug Ida Augusta of
Onancock, Va. This is the outgrowth
OF the recent dispute between Mary
land and Virginia about the right
OF the latter state to lease TO Charles r
Lewis the oyster grounds known as Hog Is
land flats. The Ida Augusta is owned by
Mr. Lewis, and was in charge of Capt. Will
lam +. Russell, who left Hog Island about
80 o'clock and proceeded to run around
Mr.. Lewis reservation. When off buoy
No. Capt. Russell saw the Lawson
dredging inside OF the reserve grounds. He
started toward her, when the hands were
winding in the oyster dredges on the
schooner. The tug boat was headed at the
schooner's midship on the starboard side.
The captain of the schooner evidently did
not suspect the intention of Capt. Russell,
who struck the schooner directly on the
dredge roller.
ONLY BROKE HER LOG.
The blow was glancing one, and only
broke the schooners log. Capt Evans
wanted to know what was meant by the tug
running into him. There was no reply
from Capt. Russell, who steered the tug off.
and, making for the schooner second
time, struck her a little forward Of
the first blow, cutting her hull through
about four feet on deck. When the
schooner began to list toward the starboard
side, the water soon commenced creeping up
through the opening made by the tug
Capt Russell then invited Capt Evans and
his crew of five men to get on board
the tug. By this time the schooner
had filed and began to sink. The crew got
into yawl boat and boardedsthe tug. The
schooner in the meantime went down in
two and a-half fathoms of water, with all
sails setn

LONDON, Nov. 27-The conservative con-
ference at Nottingham, yesterday. ap-
proved Lord Salisbury's social programme,
but attached Il rider declaring that the
party must have an effective electoral labor
platform. During the course Of the pro-
ceedings Lord Salisbury condemned the
declaration recently made by Lord Rose
berry at the liberal meeting in Glasgow
that reform of the House OF Lords must be
of drastic character, aud said that the
declaration was a rash one. If Lord Rose
berry meant that the House Of Lords ought
TO contain an elected element superior to
hereditary members, that necessarily in
volved an encroachment upon the rights and
privileges of the House of Commons. De-
tailed criticism upon Lord Roseberry's plan,
Salisbury said, was needless until his scheme
was fully stated Referring to the progress
OF the home rule idea sham to federate
England Scotland, Ireland and Wales, Lord
Salisbury said he considered the application
of such a scheme to Great Britain as utterly
chimerical.

The time Of year has come when faith
ers and mothers are anxiously casting
about~fo places to put their SONS and
daughters at school, but before deciding
to send them away from home would it
not be we'll to sit down and calmly think
the matter over in all of ita bearings.
Your ion or daughter is of very tender
years and, of course, very impressible,
and however watchful and conscientious
the teacher may be, it will not be like
being under the parental eye. The
temptations away from home are greater
than at home, and it is not possible to
shield them as you do it at home. And
then your other children at home, is it
not possible that you will feel that you
cannot afford to spend much money on
your local school by reason of the fact
that you have to spend so much away
from home? And, if so, then your chill.
dren at home suffer and your neighbor's
children, too. Then suppose you t
that if you and three or four more Of
your neighbors who have children to send
off would put your hands and heads and
pocket. books together you could employ
q first class teacher and have all your
children at school and all at home, too.
And how much good it would do your
poorer neighbors, too, to have such a
school in their midst. It would benefit
them in like manner with yourself, and
would be the means of diffusing the
blessings Of education and intelligence
all through your community, and your
children would realize in after years the
great advantage Of growing up and living
in community of orderly, intelligent
and virtuous people. Otherwise, if they
should grow up having enjoyed superior
advantages, they will not be satisfied to
live where they realize that their neigh
bors are their interiors in mental acquire.
ments, and likely in social positions. So
We say, as we began, think we'll over it
before you decide to send your children
away from home, aud see if some plan
can't be devised to keep them and the
money, too, at home.
