The MARKET this morning presented
an inviting appearance. Fruit, veee.
tables &C., were in abundance. Peaches
were in profusion and there were many
foe cantaloupes offered for sale. Water
melons are becoming more abundant
daily. Nearly all the benches in the
enclosure were occupied and there was
a scene of busy activity among both
buyers and sellers during the greater
part of the morning. Some few salt
water fish were offered. The butchers
had tempting displays of meats at old
prices.

trouble between one of them and a col

took seat in the chair and when
elected threw bricks and broke one OF
the brasses of the chair. The boy was
then assaulted by the bootblack. The

The school board of the independent district
Of Shenandoah is in a legal complication
without precedent in the state. Under the
law treasurer, not member of the board
shall be chosen on the third Monday in Sep
tember at a regular meeting of the board
j. G.. Schneider was duly chosen The bond
was presented for acceptance by the board
sixteen days thereafter The law provides
that the new treasurer in a district township
shall enter upon his duties within ten days
after his election, but says nothing about
the time in which the treasurer Of an inde.
pendent district shall qualify. The question
Of doubt as to accepting Schneder's bond
was referred to the state superintendent, who
replied that 1t was case of law which he
could not decide, and inclined to the opinion
that the old treasurer would hold over. At
torneys advised the board to accept
Schneider's bond. 1t was done. But the old
treasurer refused to transfer the funds and
presented a new bond. The board took nc
action in regard to this bond.
The president of the board has $4,000 In
county warrants and wants to know to whom
to deliver them. The teachers are to be paid
on Friday and they cannot get their money

SOUTHAMPTON, Oct. 24.--The bishop of
British Guiana has arrived here on board
the steamer Orlnoco, from Georgetown. In
an interview regarding the dispute between
Great Britain and Venezuela he said there
was the strongest feeling among the colonists
that Great Britain should maintain the posi-
tion she has assumed regarding the Schom-
berg line. AS to the possibility of inter
vention on the part of the United States
the bishop said that although the colonsts
do not look for United States assistance, yet
certain section OF them seem to feel
the United States has more sympathy for
Guiana than England has. Therefore, con-
tinued the bishop, 1t was matter of con-
graduation that the marquis of Salisbury had
demanded reparation for the Uruan affair
which action, 1t was thought, would lead to
speedy settlement of the whole question
Another British colonlst on board the ORR.
noco expressed similar opinions and added
that an inspector of police, Colonel McInness
had gone to Uruan in order to see that place
properly protected. -.,...
