THE OLD DOMINION.
A Days Happenings as Told By
The Wires.
STATE OYSTER REVENUE.
Covernor-elect O'FerralPs lnau-
guration-NeW Armory in Rich

debtedneSS-NoteS

Although the new oyster law has only been
enforced during part OF the fiscal year. and
sas not approved until February %, 1923, the
State has already realized from her oyster
revenues under the new act s32, 764. 90. while
for tho whole fiscal year Of 1892 she only re-
allied SIS. 1856 4 from the same source All
the State officials are greatly encouraged by
this good showing. Captain Baylor the
United States engineer detailed TO survey our
natural oyster beds under the act approved
February 20, 1892, has his report to the Gov
ernor almost ready Captain Baylor believes
that. now that this survey is completed with
the exception of the natural oyster beds OIL
the Atlantic coast side OF Accomac and
Northampton counties. the Virgininia oyster
nlanting interests will rapidly improve. as
aid those of Connecticut after the completion
Of the survey Of her natural oyster beds IN
1882. The natural oyster area OF the state
will contain, Captain Baylor says, about l6O,-
GOO acrcs. This great area will be secured 10
the tongmen. The planter can now no lon
GER move his stakes out on a natural oyster
rock without the fact being easily established
that he has done so from the field notes OF
ibis survey. and without trial by judge or
jury.
A large oyster area still remains-at least
6-O0O acres when Chesapeake bay proper IS
included-which can now be safely rented
hv the nlanter without the slightest fear Of
his being dispossessed after an expenditure
of labor. time and money. The survey should
settle all titles to rented grounds.
captain Baylor in his report will strongly
recommend. in order that there may be no
question rs to the flnality of this survey, that
the act under which it was executed should
he amended SO as to omit the words, PRO
vided If any natural rock, bed or shoal is lett
out of these surveys they shall be subject to
the general oyster law of the state. Captain
BAYLOR thinks. now that the State is deriving
larger revenue from her oyster interests, it
is due to those OF her citizens who live in the
oyster region that they should have adequate
protection from both foreign and native oys-
fer thieves. This can only be accomplished
by the purchase OF number OF last and
efficient steam launches, properly armed and
equipped. of light draught and thoroughly
seaworthy. He has drawings of such laun-
ches, and says that they may be purchased
1or less than 5000 apiece.

CONGRESSMAN O'NEILL DEAD
He Was the 0.d3at Member of the

press from the Second district OF Philajel-
phia since 1862, with the exception of the
Forty.second session, diel at his home in
Philadelphia.
Mr.. O'Neill left Washington August last,
when for the first time in his life, he was
stricken with illness. Pneumonia developed,
and this caused his death.
After tho death of Congressman Kelley,
Mr.. O'Neill was called the "Father OF the
House." because he was the Oldest memt or
in point OF service. Mr. O'Neill was born in
Philadelphia March 81, 1921.
After attending the ordinary schools he
went to Dickinson College, from which insti-
tuition he graduated in lS4l He then studied

Ideas About the Inauguration

No definite plans for the inauguration OF
Goyernor-elect Charles T. OFerral have as
vet been arranged by the gentlemen to
whom the matter has been entrusted, but 1t
is safe to predict that the affair will be fully
in keeping with the dignity of the occasion.
The military display will doubtless be the
feature OF the day. rs all the local soldiery
and many commands in other parts OF the
State have expressed their desire to do
honor to the gallant Governor-elect. The
volunteers will probably act as an escort to
the Governor, and several political organiza-
tions have signifed their wish to join in the
splendid procession.
There is some talk of having a reception
or banquet at night, but this part OF the
programme is still in the embryo.
When Colonel O'Ferrall was in Richmond
last week he expressed his Willingness to
deliver a short speech If his friends wished
him to do 50.

CHATEAUBRlAND'S GRAVE.
The Great Frenchman Buried on the Lone
ly Rock Where he Was Born.

The Great Frenchman Buried on the Lone
ly Rock Where he Was Born.
Chateaubriand, the famous French
author who, after dining with Wash
ington at Philadelphia, said, There
is virtue in the look Of great man, ="
is buried at the actual spot where he
was born, and probably no one was
ever laid in a stranger resting place.
1t is on jutting point Of rock in a
lonely, exposed position. The father
and mother of the Vicomte Chateau
BRAND were on board vessel bound
for st. MalO. 1t was night when
they neared the coast, and terrific
storm was raging. No boat could
venture to the assistance of the
crew, and the vessel was wrecked
upon a rock not far from the shore.
The mother of Chateaubriand passed
the night upon the rock, and there
he was born. He afterward pur-
chased the rock and built upon it the
tomb in which he now lies.

Progress with His Reading.

The newspapers have been called
the wife's foe, because the husband,
while reading the daily journal, must
not be disturbed by conversation. A
certain worthy clergyman found it
the rival to the Bible.
He had taught an old man in his
parish to read, and found him an apt
pupil. After his lessons were fin
ished, he was not able to call for
some time and when he did, only
found the wife at home.
"How is John?" said he. "How
does he get on with his reading?"
"Oh, nicely, sir.
"Ah, l suppose he'll read his Bible
very comfortably now?"
"Bible, sirl He was out Of the
Bible and into the newspapers long
ago."
This transition from the solid and
essential to the idle and superficial
has many forms in the experiences
of modern life.

The idea of annexing North Danyille to
Danville having been practically abandoned,
North Danville will probably apply to the

500 inhabitants. With this object in view a
special Tut somewhat informal census has
been taken. which gives the town popula-

1t Worked We'll.

A red-nosed man, with shabby
clothes. stopped before the row of
seats under the big weeping willow
near the bridge in the public garden
the other afternoon, says the Boston
Journal. The seats were mostly &C.
cupied by women and children.
Bending down opposite a bright
looking little girl, the red-nosed man
said smilingly:
81 wish / had nickel for you,
little one. You would like ride on
the swan boats, wouldn't you, dear?"
"Yes, SIR" replied the child, look
ing up timidly
81 knew you did, my child, and If
l only had nickel you should have
it."
"Lal hear that old bum talk" ex-
claimed a woman sitting near
IF he ant got a nickel why don't
he shut up and move on" remarked
another woman.
The red-nosed man pretended not
to hear these remarks, and presently
addressed the little girl again:
"YOu remind me so much of one OF
my own little ones at home. If /
only had a nickel you should have it,
my pet"
ooh, you make me weary" ex-
claimed another woman in disgust.
Here's the nickel for the child.
Now do shut up and get out"
The red-nOsed man reached out his
hand and took the money with an in
jured expression on his hard features.
Madam" he said reproachfully,
"the Lord loves a cheerful giver. So
dol. 1t would hardly be right to
bestow an uncheerful gift on this
innocent lamb; so with your permits
sion will use this nickel to moisten
nv throat a little. But always give
cheerfully, mum. 1t hurts the feel
ings of a sensitive man to receive an
uncheerful gift. had almost rather
go dry"
Then the red-nosed man passed
under the bridge, leaving behind him
a chorus of "Did you evers?" and
"No, l nevers!"
