THE PoToMAC RIVER CULLING Law.
Senator Wilkinson enlivered the Mar.
land Senate Monday night Ivy speec'r
upon the Potomac river. The concu
rent bill to require the culling ofoyster-
taken in that river over the bars Va S
under consideration. Under the act
passed by the Legislatures of the two
States in 1854 the beginning of the
longing season was fixed for September
l. The general oyster law of Maryland
of 1892 fixes the date tor longing all
over the State on September 10. No
licenses are is sued befol g that time, and
. The Virginia oystermeu are at work
t 70 weeks in advance of the Maryland
e S. This is very offensive to the Sena-
tor from st. Mary's. He therefore Of
fered an amendment to the Gull law to
C ,rrect this inequality. Mr.. Hayes en-
planned that this bill had been agreed
upon by the two States ard that Nir-
ginia had reluctantly consented to this
Gull law, and that any amendment
would imperil its passage. Senator
Waters said that the committee on the
bay was formulating gen.
eral oyster law, and it would be better
, wait until then.

Picturesque, Pleasing and Clever.
From the Hartford Post
Now the Chinese OF Japanese maid sery-
ant is becoming fashionable on account
OF her picturesque possibilities. II she
wears her native dress she is about as at
tractive as a 81, $40 vase or rare piece OF
bric-a-brac. Visitors like to look at her,
and consequently the prettier and more
graceful the girl the higher wages she
can command. Long, narrow eyes, thin
black brCws, and clear complexion are
the things desired. An oriental girls hair
Is always shiny and well arranged, and
everything about her Is invariably neat
A part OF her duties is attendance at the
door. This Is where the spectacular fea-
ture counts After the ring of the electric
bell has died away there is pattering of
slippered feet or the clack Of little Japan
csc wooden stills, and the door swings
back, revealing small, brilliant figure,
with card tray concealed in the depths
OF her sleeve or kimono. 1t Is all very
fetching.
Another function that the maiden from
over the seas is expected to perform Is
serving o'clock tea. This Is peculiarly ap-
propriate, and lends an aroma to the
beverage. The fad started in New York
and has naturally reached Its height in
San Francisco, where the missions are
not able to supply the people who call upon
them. The missions In fact require refer
ences before they will allow their girls to
60 out. There Is too much trouble in
rescuing them to have them slip back
again. as they are quite likely to do If they
are not carefully watched. 1t will not do
to give them the liberties that other serv-
ing maids have, for they are like wax in
the hands OF designing people.
