was injured. 1t thought that at least

When the accident occurred the ele-

cording TO DR.. ]. Z. Phillips, physician
at the plant, the antics Of two men on
the elevator, who were intoxicated,
caused the disaster. DIR. Phillips sayt

OYsTERMEN WIN THEIR FIGHT,

The Supreme Court of Appeals of
Virginia Thursday handed down an
opinion in the case of Lewis and
others VS.. Christian, oyster Inspector
of Mathews county, which involved
a construction of the States oyster
law.
Certain oyster planters, it seems,
had staked off and laid claim to GER
tain valuable oyster rocks and shoals
In the public domain. The plaintiffs
in error applied for a mandamus, but
the oyster inspector declared that his
duties were such as required the ex-
ercise of discretion and Judgment,
and that mandamus will not lie to
compel an officer to undo what he has
done in the exercise Of his Judgment
and discretion.
The court holds that the stalking
of the rocks and shoals was in viola
ton of section 2,153, of the Code.
and that it was clearly the duty of
the inspector to require persons who
had placed stakes On the natural
oyster rocks to remove them, and, if
they refuse, to have them removed.
The oyster inspectors duties in the
case are purely ministerial and are
mandatory, he having no discretion.
The opinion, which is by Judge
Buchanan, is a clear and DECISIVE
one, and is of great Importance to the
oystermen, for whom it is q victory

TIPER'S WHARF.

Tiper's wharf is located on the
Great Wicomico river, about half
way between Harcum's and Samp-
sons wharves, on the Wicomico side.
1t is yet in its infancy, having been
built a year ago, but bids. fair to be-
come one of the principal stopping
places on the river, as the patronage
has already considerably increased.
Messrs. Tignor Il Bro. and j. w.
q. Stephens, two of Wicomlco's
merchants, send from there large
shipments of produce to Baltimore,
and receive immense quantities of
goods. G. W. Forester, the popular
merchant of Tally Town, also
ships from this place. One hundred
and fifty barrels of oysters have been
shipped from there the past week on
the steamers Ida and Tangier. Vessels
load there with ties and cord.wood
for L. j. Eubank, and others send
weir poles from there to various
points. There is established there a
postoflice and express Office. There
will be a canning factory the coming
season, and doubtless it is fine loca-
ton for one as the shipping facilities
are excellent. Otis Harding is ac-
commodating ard always on the alert
for the business interests of the place.
The ferry, which connects Fairfields

THE NEW DISTRICTS.


In view of the great interest in the
First Congressional District in the
bills proposing to redistrict the east
ern half of the State, we are, through
the courtesy of the Richmond Dis
patch, enabled to present maps show
ing the district as it is proposed to
constitute it-one showing the dis
trict as suggested by Mr.. Cumming;
another showing the same district as
MIR. Baker proposes.
Mr. Cumming would add all the
peninsula counties elizabeth City,
Warwick, York, James City and the
city of williamsburg to the First
district, and as this would make il
too large, he would cut off Spotsyl-
yania and fredericksburg from the
First and ada them to the Eighth;
cut off Coroline from the First and
add it to the Third. Mr.. Baker pro-
poses that Caroline be left in the
First and, likewise, Spotsylvania and
fredericksburg, and that the district

county, which lies between Glouces-

The Third District. This would
make the Third extend on the west
to the Tenth, or Staunton District,
and to the Chesapeake bay on the east.
The two bills equalize population
as near as possible, but glance al
the maps will show how much more
compact and fair the Cumming bill
is than the other. The Baker bill,
in holding on to Caroline and Spot

Another bill has been introduced

A WORD TO FARM TOILERS.
PAINE'S CELERY
COMPOUND
The Home Friend of the
Farmer and His Family.

After the labors and tolls of the summer time.
and harvesting of crops in the carly autumn,
many OF our farmers, their wives, daughters.
and sons, find themselves in a condition OF
health demanding careful attention if suffering
IS TO be avoided later on. Many experience
kidney trouble in some form; with some the
liver IS torpid; there is biliousness, nausea and
vomiting, with loss of appetite and depression
OF spirits. Thousands who have been exposed
to cold, damp winds and rains while toilinp In
the harvest fields, now feel the twinees OF
terrible rheumatism; others run down by
worry, overwork, and irregular dieting, are
tomented with the pangs of dyspepsia.
10 the thousands of run down. sicklv. and
halt dead men and women in farm homes we
recommend with all honesty and confidence
the workers friend, Paine's Celery Compound.
the only medicine that can quickly and fully
restore strength to the weak body and vipor 10
the muscles. Paine's Celery Compound tones
the stomach; il removes poisonous acids from
the blood which cause rheumatism; IL feeds
the weak and diseased nerves and banishes
neuralgia fortunes; it purihes the blood and
gives true vitality and life. The use of Paine
Celery Compound in autumn means the estab-
iishing OF perfect physical vigor to withstand
the ngors OF a severe winter

No ONE could view the represen-

week of Virginians, who are zealoasly
laboring in earnest efforts to abolish
the saloon, without feeling that there
is a great movement on foot rolling
on with rapid strides and mighty
power. The enemies of morality and
good order have ceased to sheer at or
ignore this movement and are becom-
ing very much agitated. Several
thousand dollars was contributed at
this meeting to aid in the cause, and
this fact disturbs the opposition
more than anything else, for when
men go down deep in their pockets
to further a movement it means
something. 1t is very gratifying to
know that Lancaster county had a
larger representation proportionately

any in the State. The county was
