FLIGHT OF PLONER.
Island Citizen Writes to the London
Field on the Subject.

The distance which birds travel is
marvellous, the naturalists say, and Jay.
men are inclined TO believe them. W.
Herbert Purvis writes to the London
Field that every spring great numbers
of golden and ringed plover arrive in
the Hawaiian Islands and leave the first
week of May.
The nearest points of the American
coast to which they go are in southern
California and the Alaska peninsula
respectively, about 1000 geographical
miles, and here is no intervening land
1t may be that the birds drop into the
water to rest occasionally, as ducks do,
during such long flights, but it is not
probable. This is the longest regular
flight known of shore birds over water,
but it is known pretty certainly that
some sea birds fly as a regular thing
much farther than this during their
migrations. The brant geese, for in
stance, are said to nest in Siberia and
to fly north over the Arctic ocean and
south again to Cape Hatteras, or there
about and beyond, every year.

The Company known through
out the world as the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO,

Having met with the highest sue
cess in the manufacture and sale of
the excellent liquid laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, it has become import
ant to all to have knowledge of the
Company and its products. The
great value OF the remedy as medi-
cinal agent, and of the Company's
efforts, is attested by the sale of
millions OF bottles annually and by
the high approval of most eminent
physicians.
The California Fig Syrup Co. was
organized more than twelve years
ago, for the special purpose Of
manufacturing and selling a laxative
remedy. which would be more
pleasant TO the taste and more bene-
fetal in its effects than any other
known. In the process of manuiact-
uring, figs are used. as they arr
pleasant TO the taste, and healthfui
IN their tendencies, but the medicinal.
properties of the remedy are obtained
from an excellent combination Of
plants known to be incidentally lax
ative, and to act most beneticially.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then
laxative or other remedies are not
needed. If afflicted with any actual
disease one may be commended to
the most skillful physicians, but if
in need of a laxative, then one
should have the best and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most
largely used and gives most general
satisfaction.

Wednesday night the young men Of the
Crafty Literary Society, of Church HILL
chartered one OF the Seven-Pines cars
which was to meet the Highland-Springs
Literary Society at Seven Pines, the place
selected for joint debate. About 5
o'clock the car was loaded with seventy
five young men and ladies with colors
flying. and fond hopes stirring of victory
In the debate. When about half a mile
from Richmond the rear trucks Of tha
car broke, and threw the car across the
track, and IL was considered lucky that
no one was hurt, as the car was turning
a corner. but running slow at the time
the accident occurred. Being unable to
secure a car in either direction, the merry
party walked back to Richmond, very
much disappointed.
The debate, however, will take place at
a future date on the question. Resolved.
