nended the construction Of two new

NEW MEN FOR
THE FISH BOARD
Believed That Messrs. Schultice,
Craddock and Tyler Are
in Favor.

Speculation is rife in political circles
concerning the probable personnel of the
next State Board of Fisheries, as the
time draws near for Governor Montague
to announce the appointments. The terms
of the present members expire on March
18th, and they arc all understood to be
aspirants for reappoinhnent, save Sena
tor keezell, and it Is believed that he
will accept the place again if the Gov
ernor offers it to him, as no undoubtedly
will do.
The present members are: DR.. Frank
Fletcher, president, Accomac; Captain
Seth f. Miller, secretary. Mathews; Cap
tait. John y. Curtis, Richmond; Hon. Penn
BIZ oke Petit, Fluvanna, and Senator
George B. keezcll, Rockingham.
There are a great many applicants for
membership besides the incumbents. They
include DR.. ]. w. Bowdoin, Accomac;
Messrs. r. w. Schultice, Norfolk city;
]. l.. Bland West Point: II. NJ. Tyler,
Richmond city; A. P. Craddock, Lynch
burg, and r. NJ. Pilcner, Henrico county.
His Excellency has not indicated directly
whom he will appoint, but there appears
no reason why The Times should change
its forecast made some time ago, that
at least two of the incumbents will be
reappointed, and that they will be Sena-
tor Keezell and Captain Miller. other
candidates not members at present are
said to be in favor, and from what can
be gathered here and there. 1t begins to
look as if the new Board would be con-
stituted as follows: President. r. w.
Schultice, Norfolk: Secretary, Seth f.
Miller, Mathews; Senator George B. Kee-
zell, Rockingham; il. N. Tyler, Richmond
CITY, and A ?. Craddock, Lynchburg.
The appointments will probably be. an
nounced within the next twenty days,
and it is not thought the above forecast
is far out OF the way
Another matter which will shortly be
taken up by Governor Montague is the
appointment of a quarantine officer for
the district of Elizabeth River While
there are several other strong candidates
for the place. it begins to look as II DIT.
C. R. Vance, of Norfolk city, the ncum-
bent. will succeed himself. DR.. Vance
has behind him fine record, and he is
said to be strongly backed for reappolnt-
ment. The Governor will shortly an
nounce the appointment of successor
to Mr.. A. B. Chandler, Of Caroline. as a
member of the Board of Visitors of the
University of Virginia The most proml-
nent gentleman mentioned for this posi-
.;on is Judge A. ". Wallace, Of Freder-
jcksburs. Mr.. Chandler. it will be re-
called. has declined to be an applicant
ON account of i'll health. 1t is relieved

NO MAN is STRONGER
THAN HIS STOMACH.

The stomach is the vital center of the
body. 1t is the organ from which all
other organs are fed. a weak stomach
means a weak man. There never was
strong man with weak stomach. What
Is called uweak stomach" IS IN general
diseased condition of the stomach and
ather organs of digestion and nutrition.
which prevents the proper digestion OF
the food which is taken into the s,oin-
scil, and SO reduces the nutrition OF the
body. When ali food is taken away TIE
BODY starves When the food eaten IS
only digested and assimllated IN part 1t
pnly nourishes the body in part, ard SO
he BODY is partly starved. And this
starvation is felt i'll every organ OF the
body dependent on the blood which IS
made from food
The great variety of the cures per
formed by DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery is due to its remarkable
mower to heal diseases of the stomach
and allied organs 1t cures through the
stomach diseases seemingly remote, but
which have their origin IN diseased
