ABOUT THE oYsrERs.-An intelligent and
observant Claiborne oyster parker gives these
as the reasons why oysters are so roor at this
time: First, the excessive dronghts of the
summer and fall. and second. the singulsr
fact that this year. particularly since the be-
ginning Of the summer, the Chesapeake tides
have been extremely moderate, not more than
eighteen inches between high and low water
any time st the maximum. As the oyster is
stationary and cannot go in pursuit of its food,

FROM WASHINGTON.
Correspondence of the Alexandria Gszette.l
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 6.
Mrs. D. P. Bowers, the we'll known
actress, died this morning at the resi-
dence of Mr.. Frank Bennett, manager
of the Arlington Hotel, her son-in-law,
with whom she had made her home Of
late years. Mrs. Bowers, whose maiden
name was Elizabeth Croker, was born
in Stamford, Conn, March 10, 1880,
the daughter of an Episcopal clergy
mau, who died in her early childhood.
Her sister, afterwards Mrs. F. B. Con-
way, like herself took TO the st,ge, and
also like her became one of the fore
most American actresses.
DR.. Rocker, secretary to Monsignor
Satolli, the delegate, whose elevation to
the cardiuslsts is to be announced at
the priva'e consistory on the 25th inst,
says that it will be impracticable to ar
range for the ceremony of the imposi-
ton of the beretta upon the new car
dual to occur on the 8th of December,
aud that it would probably take place
ON the 18th of December, the Sunday
next succeeding the Feast of the I'm
maculaie Conception. The function
will be held in the cathedral at Balti-
more, Cardinal Gibbons presiding. 1t
will be one of the most notable events
in the history of the church in the
United States. All of the IA arch
bishops and rs bishops will be invited
to attend, aud the majority them will
doubtless be present.
1t is currently reported here to-day
that though Secretaries Carlisle and
Lamont both voted in their respective
States yesterday, neither one of them
voted the straight democratic ticket.
The President did not come to town
Yesterday, but he was at the White
House to-day. He didn't seem at all
pleased with the news of Tammany's
great victory, the only result of yester-
days elections that is at all gratifying
to the democrats here.
The latest news from Kentucky re-
ceived here this afternoon is that the
State has gone republican by six
thousand majority; and from Baltimore,
that the republican majority in that
city is twelve thousand.
Of course nothing is talked Of here
to-day but the result of yesterdays
elections. The republicans are delight
ed, and the democrats sour and gloomy,
and most of them mad with the Presi-
dent, to whom they attribute their
party's defeat. Some of them go so far
as to say that the democratic party is
utterly demoralized and broken up,
that the semblancs of its national or.
gapization may as we'll be abandoned,
that nobody except Mr.. Cleveland
would accept its next Presidential
nomination, and that of its elements a
new party be formed, having only three
principles, but all them democratic
from skin to core, personal liberty,
sound money and free trade. Such
party, they say, may have chance to
win next year, but that for the demo.
cratic party to SO into national cam
paign in its present condition and under
its present leadership would be posi-
lively absurd.

The Cleveland democrats, when
they joined the republicans in the State
of New York last November and de-
feated the democratic ticket, said the
party would be purified and strength
ened, aud be in better shape for this

ton has been held, and the republican
majority in New York is about one
hundred thousand. Aslike causes pro.

A BISHOP ON BLooMERs.-The Min
neapolis Times says: The Right Rev.
George F. Seymour, D. d., while con-
yersing with reporter yesterday, had
his attention drawn to young lady at
tired in bloomers and mounted on BIZ
cycle. 1t was one of the bloomiest
pair of bloomers that have yet appear
ed, and upon the reporter asking the
bishop what his views were on the
"new woman," the preiate replied:
"God created male and and female in
the image of God. The image Of God
unites them, and the hand of God diff
fsrentiates them in making them two
halves of whole. Each has its place,
and the woman has, if one pleases, the
better place, as she is the better half
Having said this, I wish to add that
God, in making woman, implied her
place in her physical constitution, or
ganic functions and practical duties.
The lines are drawn by the Divine
hand. Human hands may seek to OBJ
literate these lines and succeed in OBJ
securing them, but they cannot destroy
them.
"As woman, as God made her
and as Christ diguified her, she is all
glorious within, and protected by the
reverence and affection of the civilized
world. As the new woman she will be
divorced from the home, from her
children, from her husband and from
her former self, and become creature
indescribable."

THE BALTIMORE San. which did its
b st to defeat the democratic tick
ct in Maryland, and which is
the organ of the self-called Cleve-
l.nd democrats in its State, says
1T is proud, too, to know that its
course has frequently elected earne st
expressions of approval from the great
leader of democracy, Grover Cleveland,
and that both by word of mouth and in
writing it has received from time to
time the hearty Endorsement of the
foremost democrat ofthe land" What
90 those democrats, who though OPP
pc ed to Mr.. Cleveland's nomination,
exer.ed their utmost endeavors to Sc
cure his election, think OF this?

To PREVENT LYNcH1Ne.-The Legisls ure
of Georgia will, in all probability, put the
Atkinson plan for preventing lynching into
effect at once. A blu carrying out tho Gov
ernor's suggestions was introduced yesterd ~
and the sentiment of the legislators seems to
he strongly in its support. The burning of q
negro iu Tyler, Tex, has had the effect of sm-
phnsizing the necessity for prompt action to-
w-rd el minating the possibility of mob law
in Georgia.
Governor Atllinson's plan is regarded as
the most practical yet suggested 1t is first,
to give the Governor power to relieve at ono
any sheriff or similar officer who fails to pro-
tect prisoner in his charge; and secol d 10
make the county where lynching occurs re-
s1onsibie for the life and responsible in mon
ey damages TO the next of kin. There is no
doubt 1t is said, that many lynchings have
occurred through the direct collision of the
leriff5.

Now THAT the Governor has sue
caeded in breaking up one gambling
establishment in Alexandria county,
he should Immediately commence ope-
rations on the same line nearer his pres
emit abiding place, and break up at least
some of the many such establish
ments that, according to curr ent report,
abound in Richmond. Gambling, if
prohibited in one part of the State, GER
tainly should not be INDUCED with i'm
punitY in other parts.

WEDNESDAY EVENING. NOV. s. 1895
THE PREsIDENr made an appoint.

THE PRESIDENT made an appoint.
ment with the young Duke of MARI
bo ough, who is to marry an American
girl. and thereby naturally acquire
American sympathies, to receive him
on Monday, and the Duke came from
New York to Washington for that pur-
PIE. But the President, so it is re-
rted, fearing the effect such recep-
tim might have upon large class of
the voters of the country at the next
days election, broke the appointment,
and the Duke, who is yet boy, went
buck to his expectant bride with any
thing else than favorable impressions of
the courtesy and independence of the
Chief Magistrate of the United States.
The report that the appointment was
broken for the reason referred to Is de-
MED, but certainly on no better authori-
ty than that on which it originated, and
the fact that the predecessor OF
the present British Minister was
sent back to Ens land by Mr..
Clsv,l lind for writing letter
which the lstte- thought might
affect the same class of voters at that
time, adds greatly to its reliability.

ALL TRUE democrats, in every part
of the country, regret that the hereto
fore reliable democratic State of Mary
land has been removed from the demo-
cratic column. 1t also goes without
saying that the love of their self-called
"Cleveland democrats" to whom that
party disaster is due, does not surpafs
that of women.

AMID the general defeat of the de-.
mocracy yesterday, Tammany stood
like stone wall, and came out of the
battle with flying colors, and justly
proud, that among the faithless, faith
full only she. She has again demon
strated the fact that she is the only
really true democratic organization in
New York. All future hopes of the
success of the democratic party in the
Empire State must rest upon her.

SENATOR HoAR, of Massachusetts,,
Us ifthe democrats shall ever come in
to power again they will reduce the tariff
sill further. Well, if-they don't, they
should be retired permanently. The
average tariff tax now is about fifty per.
cen, ;. which is absurd for party that
processes TO be in favor of tariff for rev.
eule only.

BEFORE Mr.. Cleveland was elected,
some of the wiser democrats OF the
C ,untry said he would break up the
democratic party. That they were true
prophets, the result of yesterdays cleo
tions make plain to all disinterested
observers, for no matter how long
men may have voted the dem
ocratic ticket such men are hu-
man, and it would be against the
ordinary feelings of human nature
if they should work in 1896 for the sue
cess of party whose leader and those
dependent upon him for the offices they
hold, united with the republicans and
defeated their party's tickets in 1895.
Aad the man who entertains hopes OF
the election of O democratic President
next year, with the solid South broken,
and with ore hundred thousand repub-
lican majority in the State of New
York, will certainly catch larks when
the heavens fall.

New YORK, Nov. 6.-The much
talked of wedding of Miss Consuelo
Vanderbilt and the Duke of MARI
borough took place to-day in ST.. Thorn
ass Church. At twelve o'clock the
church was thronged with the repre-
sentatives of New York's smartest
society gathered to witness the cere.
mony. The church was gorgeously
decorated for the occasion, the floral
display being without doubt the most
lavish that New York has ever known.
The steps of houses and the sidewalks
up and down the avenue were jamme d
until it was almost impossible for the
pedestrians to obtain passage through
the crowd and traffic on Fifth Avenue
was practically at standstill. When
everything was in readiness for the
ceremony the church was closed and
no one was allowed to enter whether
or not they were provided with q card.
The Duke of Marlborough with his best
man, his cousin, the Hon. Ivor Guest,
entered the church and took their posts
at the right of the chancel. The Duke
wore frock suit of dark gray cloth, q
white ascot tie, patent leather shoes
and white gloves. The ushers took
their station in front of and at either
side of the chancel. The bridesmaids
lead the bridal procession walking tW o

on the arm of her father and carrying
in her left hand the bridal bouquet.
The bridesmaids took positions at
either side of the chancel steps. The
