The True InWardneSS of the ice Business.

While there was activity in the ice trade it was
next to impossible to get an accurate idea of the
situation The reports put forth were more or

crop stimulated speculation everywhere, and there
is no doubt now but that this deficiency was more
than met from before unused sources of supply.

pectaton OF getting go per ton wholesale In

They Defeat the Washington Col
1ege Team by Score OF 14to 4.
A very interesting game of foot ball
was played Saturday at Chestertown be-

that place, and the St. Johns College
team. The st. Johns team went over in
steamer, and was accompanied by mum
Der Of students OF the college.
The two teams were quite evenly
matched and not until near the close OF
the game was victory assured ST. Johns.
The Washington College rush line was
quite heavy being at least ten pounds
heyier than St. Johns. The men lack
practice and do tot know the game thor
oughly, if they did they would put up a
very good game, and one which St
Johns would have TO play good football
to beat There are several very fast
rushers on the team, as ST. Johns found
out to her sorrow Their only touch
down was a scratch one. and was made
by one of their men seizing the ball after

For St. Johns, Johnston played fine

time and again, and sadly perplexed the
quarter back by tackling the half back
before he had hardly given him the ball.

St Johns scored two touchdowns which
were not allowed The game was char

News for sportsmen.

Reports from sportsmen on both the
eastern and western shores of the bay
indicate that this will be the best gun
ming season known in Maryland in years.
Geese, swan and ducks are to be found in
great numbers in the bay and its tributa-
ries, and even the mill ponds are cover
ed with all kinds of water fowl. The
mouth of the Miles river and Eastern bay
presents very encouraging sight to the
sportsman. The ducks and geese are so
thick on the water at times that they
hardly notice the steamers as they pass,
except to get out of danger of the wheels,
Reports from Parsons Island, near the
terminus of the Baltimore and Eastern
Shore Railroad line. are to the effect that
the water around there is literally cover
ed with all kinds of wild fowl. Purser
Gourley, of the steamer St. Mary's, of
the Weems Line, says he never saw so
many ducks, geese and swan in the bay
in long time, and he has been running
on the Chesapeake for number of years.
On Wednesday, between Governor Run
and Bloody Point, the water was blacked
with wild fowl, and they were very tame.

we were isolated from the outer world
for the next thirty six hours; but thanks
to the enterprise of the Eastern Shore

ten years ago that the Eastern Shore
would be the means of giving us an early

Enforcing His Decision.

On Saturday Captain Howard, of the
oyster police force, took the schooner
Langrall, charged with violating the
oyster-culling law. The captain escap-
ed, Justice Stevens, of Talbot county,
who heard the case, imposed fine and
directed the boat to be held until the fine
was paid. Benjamin Wilson, one of the
owners of the Langrall, avowed his pur-
pose to take the boat away. Justice
Stevens determined he should not, and,
arming himself, followed Wilson to the
wharf and forbade him to touch the boat.
Wilson struck Justice Stevens, who re-
turned the blow, but, being quite an
aged man, was overpowered by Wilson,
who got him down on the wharf. JUS
tice Stevens then drew his pistol and fir
Ell, the ball making severe flesh wound
in Wilson's abdomen. This ended the
fight, and also euded Wilson's attempt
to take the Langrall The schooner is
now in the custody of Sheriff Nichols.
