"The National Magazine" of Bos-

refreshing flavor Of originality that
holds the readers attention to the
last page. 1t is one of the few magaz
ines that a person reads, rather than
glances through and it is laid aside
when the last page is turned with a
feeling of having indnlged in a liter

In affairs at Washington" by
Joe Michel Chapple, ono catches

illustrated with the best collection Of
Porto Rican views-oger published.

The latest from the seat of war IN
South Africa is of a more favorable
turn to the British than any during
the bitter struggle. The dispatches
say chat Kimberley and Cecil Rhodes
have been relieved aud that Gener-
81 Butler is within sight OF Lady
smith, and the plucky garrison will
soon be out of danger. General
Lord Roberts ia credited with the
success of these late Developments,
although many papers do not be-
lieve that the Beers have retired so
easily without an Interior motive.
1t may be that they are massing in
some quarter for an unexpected at.
tack or will rely upon the careless
ness and lack of vigilence on the
part of the English, in the flush Of
first practical success, to strike a
blow again as at Modder River and
Mujuba Hill. One writer on the
subject says "the war has just be-
gun" and that it would be serious
mistake to assume that the Beers
are beaten. Whatever the outcome
let us hope for a speedy consum-
nation of the war, and that right
and justice may prevail, though
this matter is viewed from opposite
tand-points by SO many different
people.

A Few and important rule has
been laid down by the Court of
Appeals. 1t is as follows:
"Ordered by the Court of Appeals
of Maryland, this 9Th day Of Feb.
ruary, 1900, that the clerk of this
court shall hereafter place upon
the docket of the January, April or
October term of this court no case
unless the record therein shall have
been actually 6led in his Office be-
fore the first day of said terms, and
that all records filed on or after
the beginning Of the first day Of
each term. Provided, however,
that nothing in this rule contained,
shall apply to cases or appeals al
lowed under Sections 20 and AZ Of
Article 5 Of the Code, or to any
other cases or appeals where, by
law, the appeal may be heard dur
ing the same term to which the re-
cord may be transmitted"

The little town of Aberdeen, Md. a,
on the line OF the Philadelphia,
Wilmington and Baltimore Rail-
road, was takn into great excite
ment on account Of a reported fell
onious assault Of negro upon Miss
Jessie Bradford, 16 year-old girl,
daughter Of Edward Ii. Bradford,
a farmer near Aberdeen. The au-
thorities are searching for the brute,
whom the girl describes as light in
color, short and thick set.
A most remarkable circumstance
connected with the above diabolical
deed is, that at the time the assault
occurred passenger train on the
Philadelphia, Wilmington and Bal
timore Railroad was passing the
spot. The conductor saw the negro
brute dragging lady along, yet he
never stopped his train that an at
tempt might De made for assistance
No doubt some Of the male passen-
gers would have aided to capture
the seoundrel.

The Oakland Republican puts the
Sunday observance question in a
nutshell: "There is one Sunday
law which he's never been repealed
and which takes precedence to all
others. 1t is Remember the Sab
bath day to keep it holy Before
the Maryland Legislature makes
any changes they should consider
this one. 1t covers the whole ground
and needs no explanation. All can

getting as good price as possible.
On the other hand the consumer is
interested in having supply but
in having them as cheap as they
can get them.
1t is a notorious fact that the oy-
ster beds are nearly depleted. An
FISHERMAN can now catch in day
/, 2, 3 or possibly A bushels on
an extra day. eve are speaking
particularly of Britton's Bay, buta
person does not have to stretch his
imagination much to include the
most of the rivers and inlets in the
same category II he make a dol
lar per day he thinks he has made
a days work if dollar and half
or two dollars an extra days work.
A man Of thirty, forty or fifty years
Of age can look back and see when
a tonger could catch with less labor
five or six, aye, ten times as many
oysters as now making five, ten or
fifteen dollars day.
To increase and not diminish the
catch Of these oyster beds is the
great problem before the people to-
day and should present itself to our
Legislators, particularly to the com
mittee on the Chesapeake Bay and
its tributaries. The bill now be-
fore the committee seems to have
some excellent features, such as the
Topping off of September in the be-
ginning and April in the end of the
season. The strict enforcement Of
the Gull law il it is possible by any
means to do so. The protection Of
these beds by the State Police Force
and the strict enforcement OF the
whole law is one of the most impor-
tant parts. The FIVE acre law which
was repealed two years ago in our
county should be re-enacted by this
Legislature. II looks hard to have
old st. Mary's different from the
other tide water counties. The
mother should at least have an
equal share with the daughters.
The great object is to increase the
supply Of oysters. II farmer is
considered "a beuefactor who makes
two blades Of grass grow where but
one grew BEFORE" how much more
80 would the owner OF private
grounds who made many bushels Of
oysters grow where none grew be-
fore ? Although nearly every one
interested in catching oysters is OPP
posed to leasing, particularly ON a
large scale the bottoms Of the Ches.
apeake or its tributaries, vet a few
now would be willing TO try the
thing as an experiment.
TO bring back the oyster supply
is the great question OF the day
with both consumers and eatchers,
and they should assist by every
lawful means in their power to get
law not only to protect the few
remaining oysters bat to multiply
them ten fold.
