WOMAN'S FOREIGN MISSIONARY
SOCIETY.
Rappahannock District.

The 26th annual meeting of the
Woman's Foreign Missionary Society
of Virginia convened in Mt. Vernon
church, Danville, October 18th, last
ing three busy days.
To read of these meetings is one
thing, but to be present is quite
another and more delightful expe-
rience. The beautiful homes and
lovable people of Danville make
the city one of the most attractive in
Virginia.
This gathering of consecrated
workers from all parts of the Confer
ence and from the foreign field sat
together as no longer strangers, but
one in spirit and united in q great
and good purpose.
The sessions were helpful and
cheering, and while listening to the
reports of what has been done, of the
needs in various fields, and the stir
ring words of ex hortation and encour-
agement amid the magnetic influence
of numbers, gave to all feeling of
strength and inspiration, a greater
desire to do more and deeper glad
ness and Joy in the work of spread
ing the gospel.
The annual sermon, preached by
Rev. Graham Lambeth, was of high
order, and greatly impressed the
large audience
Lunch was beautifully served each
day in the church psrlors with dec
orations and favors of either chrysan-
themums or roses.
Another happy feature of the meet
ing was the sweet and appropriate
singing at each session.
Miss Helen Richardson of China
made an address full of information,
which greatly interested her hearers
because of her wide experience in the
foreign field. The needs for mole
money, schools, hospitals and workers
are greater than words can make us
realize.
Miss Mary White of Norfolk, &
cultured young lady, educated al
Randolph-Macon Woman's College,
has just entered the Scarritt Train.
ing School to prepare for work in
China. The Conference enthusias
tically decided to support her.

WHARTON STIRRED THEM.

DIR. II. M. Wharton, who is con-
Quoting the great revival every night
at the First Baptist church, preached
twice in the church yesterday, and
about one hundred accepted Christ.
At night, after every foot or space of
the great building was filled, more
than five hundred who came had to
be turned away.
At ten in the morning Mr.. Whar-
ton held brief service with Central
Sunday school, and twenty-five pro-
fessed faith there.
In the afternoon the Academy of
Music was filled from pit to dome
with men, and every inch of stand
ing room occupied while DIR. Whar-
ton told in a simple way the story of
Belshazzar's feast. The men laugh
ed, cheered and wept. When the op-
portunity was given, more than two
hundred leaped to their feet to testify
their acceptance of Jesus Christ as
their Savior. These men stood with
tear-wet faces, while sobs of sorrow
for sin thrilled and walled through
the great playhouse. Perhaps moth
ing like it was ever seen or heard in
Norfolk before.
Doubtless between three and four
hundred people accepted the Son of
God as their Redeemer in all four OF
the Wharton meetings yesterday.
Next Sunday afternoon he will
speak again at the Academy of Music
to men only on "The Strange Wo-
man. ."-Norfolk Dispatch, Oct. 24th.

STATE OYSTER CONTROVERSY.

The oyster inspectors Jaw is a
great farce. When they catch an
opsterman with load of unculled
oysters the inspector demands and
collects fine. The oysterman
promptly pays it and proceads on his
way with his illegal shells and
plants. This gives but poor protec-
tion to the oyster bottoms.-C Colonial
Beach Progress.
The Norfolk Ledger prints an
editorial article containing structures
upon the State Board of Fisheries,
saying that certain moneys paid to
the officers cf the board had not been
paid TO the proper custodian; the
article also censured the board for
holding star chamber meetings, and
the declination of Secretary Miller
to make reporters for the papers
welcome. Mr. Miller is reported to
have said that morning papers had
misrepresented him, and that he did
not believe in telling reporters any
thing. The article was shown Henry
M. Tyler, a member of the board.
He said there were no grounds for
the publication.
The Viryinian-Pilot has it from a
gentleman in position to know the
facts that the oyster inspectors at
some points have compromised cases
for less than the minimum provided
by the law. 1t is hardly necessary
to say that this is not done with a
view of promoting the oyster industry
or increasing the revenues of the
State. If the State Board of Fish
cries is not cognizsnt of the facts, it
should take vigorous steps to ac-
quaint itself with them, and with
the parties who deal so cavilierly
with the law. The oyster industry
means much not only to Tidewater
Virginia, but to the whole State. 1t
carries a burden that probably no
other industry carries. 1t affords
employment for many people who
would otherwise probably not be
able to find employment in the State.
And it gives a food supply that has
no eqIal in the world. AT
the meeting last week of the Board
of Fisheries the oyster situation in
its entirety was gone over, there hav-
ing been quite discussion regarding
the depredations of the oyster laws
which threaten to cripple if not
eventually kill the industry unless
the legislature corrects the abuses.
Drastic action will likely be recon-
mended to eradicate the evil. 1t has
been alleged that certain parties who
lease rocks inside the Baylor survey
go ont of their territory and take the
young oysters, which are brought to
Norfolk and other places and sold,
and that when the police boats ap.
proach the violators scurry back to
the leased grounds, so that it is diff.
ficult for the officers to secure con-
victions. Nothing was given ont re.
garding the steps to be taken by the
board looking to stopping the viola
tions, but it is understood that the
attention of the legislature will bt
called {. 'he serious state of affairs
The board was frank in stating that
it would like to see the Gull laws en-
forced, and the packers urged legis.

The NECESSITY OF wARmiNs UP.

Get up sweat!' exclaims
John L. Sullivan. There some
thing wrong with the man who
don't perspire''
''Get up a sweat" Mr.. sullivan
seems to be have struck the key
note of success. sweat has been
a great power in this world. 1t
has ever been moving and a
dynamite force. Mighty deeds
have been accomplished by the
aid Of perspiration.
Don't you suppose that Thomas
Jefferson was in a sweat when he
wrote the Declaration of Iude-
pendence? Don't you suppose
that Patrick Henry was in a atate
of perspiration when he exclaimed
"Give me liberty or give me
DEATH" Don't you suppose that
Phil Sheridan was in stew all
those 20 miles to Winchester (!
Can you conceive that George
Washington was not In a sweat
when he was chasing the British
army all up and down the Allan
tic seaboard? Can we believe that
even so cool q commander as
Admiral Dewey did not get up a
little steam as he sailed into
Manila Bay, just before the bat
tie, mother? And, finally,
wasn't Cen. Shafter in a high
state Of perspiration in his ham,
mock, three miles in the rear,
while the land battle of Santiago
was raging? And don't you
know that it puts Theodore
Roosevelt in a big sweat to swing
his "big stick" every day?
Mr.. Sullivan, it seems, has
struck the right chord.

Hot Air in Re pub
lican Estim ateS.

The Washington Post is Of the
opinion that there is much hot
air in the republican claims of
big majorities in the northern
states. The Post says republican
leaders who talk of 80, 900 or 40,-
600 in West virginia. acknowl-
edge privately they would feel
exceedingly comfortable if assur-
ed of 5000; and that while they
keep talking of from 80, 900 up in
New York, they would 60 off and
shake hands with themselves if
they felt they could count upon
as many as %, 700 plurality for
Roosevelt there. In commenting
upon these claims. The Post point
out that republicans generally
coneede the return of gold demo-
Gratis to the party. As the cam
paign progresses the allegiance
Of the Bryan element becomes
more apparent.In most states,
accordingly, the democratic vote
of 1892 will be largely for Parker,
The loss of voters who supported
Cleveland, from all indications,
will hardly exceed 10 per cent.
4 good many Of the so called
independents are with the dem
ocratic ticket. Then granting
the repu blicans much the best Of
it with the voters who have come
in during the last twelve years,
there are small chances for fgur-
ing out the enormous majorities
now claimed for the dominant
party.
"The phenomenal majorities of
the last eight years have eneour-
aged extravagant estimates.
Twelve years ago. and pri o r
. thereto, the most ardent rainbow
chasers in the two great parties
never dreamed of such campaign
conditone as developed with the
advent OF Bryan as a democratic
candidate. Just be ore the elec-
tion Of 1892 chairmen in Connec-
ticut talked of 8, 900 mojority there
either way as large, while in In
diana the parties had swayed the
state during the election for
twenty years by margins of few
thousands. Predictions Of 1000
, for the repu blican ticket in Hoos-
ierdom would have been laughed
at as much as a Is, 900 republican
| majoriy would hBve been derided
in New Jersey. But Connec ticut,
New York, New Jersey, Indian a
and numerous other states that
might be mentioned gave these
remarkable majorities, and re-
publican chairnen have become
SO accustomed to announcing
large figures that the prophecies
of old-time majorities such as
prevailed in normal times would
! be received in stanch party circles
as sounding strange. !"
