the home company is concerned,
they will soon be at work on it, or
buy the one now in, which would

To the Friends of Temperance.

of temperance under the leadership
of the Anti-Saloon League. On that
day a convention of the friends OF
temperance will be held In the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, South, Oman
cock. Speakers of prominence have
been engaged for the occasion, and
their addresses will be the feature OF
the convention. In fact nearly the
whole time OF every session OF the
convention will be given to the dis
cussion OF live subjects. Rev. Calvin
s. Black well, D. D., Rev. j. W. West
and others will be present. Two ad'
dresses will be delivered during the
morning session.
You are urged to make sacrifice
II necessary, to be present at this
session. Let active business men,
busy farmers, all citizens give the
18th OF April to this convention III
the interest OF temperance.
The Importance of this convention
can hardly be overestimated. lt'
success, however, depends largely
upon the cooperation Of all the
friends of temperance. Our oppo'
nents are sparing neither pains mol
money to defeat US. We should a.
least be as active as they are.
The ladies of the church have
agreed to provide dinner and supper
which they will serve at reasonable

We request all pastors to call tn
attention of their congregations t.
this convention, and urge their PEG
pie to attend.
The program will be published mex

Tangier.

. Some one visited Mr.. Gabriel Parks
traps, sometime between Saturday
and Monday, and stole all his fish.
His loss is estimated at 800.
The run of fish in the waters OF
Tangler has been larger this season
than for many years. Thousands OF
shad and herring have bsen caught
within the past week and all, nearly,
who have engaged in trapping have
struck bonanza. Capt. Benson's
catch for the last week has been esti'
mated to have realized $1,000, and
many have made from $50 to $3.50 per
day. On last Friday $500 shad
were shipped from here, on saturd ~
probably 5000 more and almost as
many every day since. Herring were
caught in such quantities that no
man could number them, at any rate
nobody did. They just filled up
boxes and barrels and guessed how
many each contained.
