lied effort" 10 do so.
Let me supplement the article or March
5th by giving the record.
For the months OF September, october,
November, and December. 1898, there was
received into the State Treasury from
tWenty-one counties and two cities, Tor
tongers' licenses and rent on oyster-plant-
ing grounds. the sum Of $23, 1924
AcCOmac county paid for tongers IL
censes and rent the sum OF R,se5.56. Glou.

Mathews stands ffth I'm amount paid.

the population OF these five counties-yiz.:
Accomac, 1871; Gloucester, ll,6S; Middle

Mathews. 1854 Gloucester and Mathews
counties have paid nearly one nth OF the

article the various amounts paid from
the other counties and cities; they have
all done well. The inspectors have done
their duty; the Board OF Fisheries has
done its duty; the tonguers and planters
have done their duty, and / don't propose

attack made on Gloucester and Mathews.
Is the reason have written these articles.
Now, let the public judge whether these
two counties are "hindering," obstruct-

nal effect. In accordance with the letter
OF the treaty OF Berlin. In order that
this may pave the way to an agreeable
and harmonious adjustment, DR.. Solf will
go to London and make himself ac-
quainted with the authorities there. and
afterward come to Washington and be-
come acquainted with our officials, so
that there may be mutual understand
lrgs. DR.. Solf will reach Washington the
latter part OF this month. and will be pre-
serted to the President by DR.. Won Holle-
ben. the German Ambassador. lie Will
probably reach Samoa in May
KINGSHIP IN STATU QUO.
In reaching this conclusion the officials
OF the three Powers have decided not TO
attempt a settlement of the Samoan
kingship for the present. That Is left
open for adjustment when each OF the
three Powers has had opportunity to pre-
sent full Information. In the mean time
the status quo is to be maintained.
From the last reports Mataafa is exer-
cising de facto kingship, while Malietoa
Is on the British warship Porpoise, and
has the support of the British and Ameri-
can authorities.
1t develops that DR.. Raffel was re-
called from his post at Samoa last No
vember. but persisted in staying after
his recall and his presence appears TO
have had much to do in precipitating the
trouble. DR.. Solf. who succeeds him as
President, is described as an accomplish
ed diplomat. with service in Calcutta and
more recently as District Judge of the
German colony OF Dar-ah-Saam. in South
Africa. 1t Is a post much similar 10 that
OF Judge Chambers in Samoa.

CHURCH TO OPEN A STORE.
VIII Go Into Trade for the Beneht
Of Its Practitioners.
CNew York WorldD

Calvary Episcopal church. at Fourth
avenue and East Twenty-first street, Is
about to undertake a novel experiment
by the establishment of store for the
sale Of dry goods in common use, such
as ginghams, checks and hannels. The
purpose Of the proposed parish store Is
to sell at reasonable rates goods Whlch
are i'm constant demand.
Ii has been the custom OF calvary
parish, i'm the scope of its operations
among the poor under its care, TO permit
its parishiOners TO purchase, at cost price,
certain articles from its stock OF cloth
provided for the regular work or the varl-
Gus organizations. The demand for these
articles increased to such an extent that
the idea of keeping a larger supply on
hand was suggested, and naturally led to
the plan Of establishing a permanent
store. Sales will be made install
ments. and no worthy person W. be re-
fused credit.
In the opinion Of the Rev. DR.. j. Lewis
Parks the rector Of the parish. the new
store will be a successful experiment.
Such n shop was opened in his former
parish, ST. Peters, Philadelphia, several
years ago. DR.. Parks says that the
original capital, which was furnished
from the rector's funds, was returned, and
that the shop yields every year small
interest upon the investment
1t is proposed, II the occasion shall
warrant, that the scope Of the new in
stitution shall be enlarged TO such an
extent that the store shall shop for its
customers. In this way goods not kept
i'm stock In the parish store will be pur
chased for those who desire It. and sold
on the instalment plan. Already the
relief department of the parish has given
the sum Of SO for the purpose of buying
the necessary stock Of goods and for
beginning the business, which will be con-
Quoted under the direct supervision OF
Miss Anthony, an experienced worker In
Calvary parish.
