4 Stage Wrecked.

The Huntington stage was badly
wrecked in Miller creek last Saturday
afternoon. The creek was dry when the
driver entered it. but before he could
drive out of it a wall of water came
down, overturning the stage and drown
ing the horses. The driver rescued two
Of the mail sacks, and walked into town
with them, six miles or so. The stage
and the horses were swept down the river
and the stage broken up beyond repair
The horses lived until the next day, but
could not be gotten out of the mud. No
trace of the missing mail sacks has been
found.-Castle Valley News.

The OYSTER GRoUNDs.-The Sena-
tors and members of the House who
are in sympathy with the oyster tong
ers held meeting in Richmond yes
terday. The meeting was held with
closed doors. Representative Bland,
o. Portsmouth, presided, and ]. G. Can
non, president OF the Oystermen's
League, addressed the meeting. 1t is
understood that the question of re-
opening the survey of the oyster
rJcks and grounds was the chief
subject of discus o., and it was
demonstrated that the expectations
Of the legislature which enacted
the law had not been realized and the
law disregarded, in that thousands OF
acres of natural rock beds and shoals
had not been included in the survey,
but left out to be staked in and claimed
by individuals as planting grounds.
Another idea presented and advocated
as means of increasing revenue to the
State was the leasing of the shores of
the Chesapeake Bay at rental OF fifty
cents an acre, thus offering great in
ducements to those who wish to en-
gage in the industry. A hill to be pre-
sented to the legislature was partly
agreed upon, but another conference
will be held before it is finally adopted.

duty in the upper part of the city. AL
ready a number of meritorious arrests
of reckless drivers and cyclists have
been made by them. In the case of a
driver the tactics followed are for the
officer to ride ahead of the offending
vehicle and allow himself margin
enough for dismounting and making the
arrest. In the case or cyclist who
was obdurate, the officer in one case
ran into him, bringing wheels, officer
and cyciist down in heap, but, as the
commissioner expressed it, with their
man on top"
Commissioner Andrews told of one
man who was recently promoted to the
position of roundsman for meritorious
arrests with the aid of the bicycle. AL
though a foot patrOlman. he impressed
into his service on each occasion a pri-
vate wheel, mounted it and caught his
men, who otherwise. on account of their
long start, would have escaped. The
next move is TO be the mounting OF
roundsmen on wheels. The duty of
roundsman involves the overseeing of
a large district and the control of the
patrolment who are performing their
tours therein. The bicycle-mounted
roundsman will, IL is thought, be the
ideal officer for this work. For patrol
work in the annexed district the cyclist
policeman will be able to cover his
round four or five times where the foot
policeman would do so but once. In
the case OF an equestrian or mounted
policeman. the difference would proba-
bly, be as great as the horse is kept
at a walk not exceeding a pedestrian in
speed.
