DELAWARE OYSTERS IN FINE CONDITION.
General Planting and Rest for Two Years

Would Make Supply Almost lnexhaustlble.
The fine condition of oysters on
both sides Of the Peninsula, both Della
ware and Chesapeake bay products,
has so astonished the citizens of the
peninsula as to inculcate firm bell If
that one or two closed years should u,
ordered by both Legislatures. Cys *
planters and tongers themselves,
who make their daily bread following
this industry, agree that a general
planting under state supervision and
then a rest for one or two years would
make the oyster supply of these two
bays almost inexhaustible and of such
proportions that Delaware oysters and
Chesapeake oysters could be enjoyed
throughout the length and breadth Of
the United States. The spat and the
clustering OF young oysters, which
have seized hold of every material OBJ
ject in the bay bottoms, from a smooth
bottle or terra Gotta pipe to a gum
boot, are probably the heaviest ever
known. One section of terra Gotta
pipe, taken by II. D. McGonigle, of
Little Greek. to the Office of Senator
Alice, contains what would become a
boatload of oysters.

Rev. Dr.. Thomas L. Poalson to Deliver Sermon
on Event of 125th Anniversary Of Chapel.


Rev. Thomas L. Poulson, d. D.,
the veteran minister who has been
supplying some of the biggest churches
in the Wilmington M. e. Conference
since his return from New York, has
been engaged to preach the one hun
dred and twenty fifth anniversary SER
mos at Barratt's Chapel, "the cradle
of Methodism,' on Sunday, October 1.
The engagement of such popular
minister and the fact that old Barratt's 8
this time celebrates a century and a
quarter Of history and progress, will
cause an effort to be made to have the
services take the form of an immense
mass meeting in the grove surround
ing the historic church in which
Bishops Coke and Asbury, the first
Methodists, met and kissed each other.
DIR. Poulson's vigor as preacher is
said to be remarkable. He was the
pastor, doing active work. at Delaware

Local Members of the Old Lyric Quartet.

The visit of Mr.. Thomas s. Start, of

day and Labor Day, revived some mu-
sical echoes of former years and hardly
the first night Saturday night had
passed before some members of the
old Irma and Lyric Quartette gath.
cred together to while away few
pleasant hours in melody. The renew
ing of these musical associations af-
forded rich treat and called up mem
ories of boyhood days that those who
participated never want to forget.
The late rehearsal was held in the
Office Of l., M. Price. Sunday even
ing at the twilight services at As
bury NJ. E. Church there was a sa-
cred song and praise service. Mr..

male quartette, Beautiful Isle Of
Somewhere, by Messrs. j. E. Hof-
fecker, Thomas S. Start, l.. NJ. Price

with his guitar for accompanying,
Messrs. j. E. Hoffecker, l.. M. Price,
tenors; Thomas S. Start, baritone,
and Frank F. Evans, bass, started out
TO give serenade, Their excellent
singing soon attracted goodly crowd
which followed them from place to
place. Over fifteen different families
were serenaded to say nothing of thoss
who were entertained by the sweet
blending of voices as it was carried on
the still night air. The people enjoy
these reunions as much as the par
ticlpants and the wish is expressed
that Smyrna may have more Of them.

MORGAN SEES PRESIDENT.
AuthoritatiyeIy Stated That the VISIT
Related to Hankow Railroad.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, Aug. 81.
Pierpont Morgan of New York had
conference with President Roosevelt
lasting an hour and half. The presi-
dent himself is authority for the state.
ment that it related practically entire
ly to the affairs of the Hankow rail-
road in China, a controlling interest in
which Is owned by j. p. Morgan a. CO,
incidentally and as relating in meas
ure to the railroad interests held by
Americans in China the pending peace
negotiations formed a topic of consid-
GRAFTON by the president and Mr.. Nor
gan.
Mr.. Morgan came to Oyster Bay I'M
heralded. While his visit was by APP
pointment, nothing concerning it was
permitted to leak through official
sources until after he had gone.
Mr.. Morgans big steam yacht, the
Corsair, anchored in the lower bay,
about three quarters of mile from the
dock of the Seawanhaka- Corinthian
Yacht club, on Center island When
observed from shore she was flying the
absent flag indicating ordinarily that
her owner was not aboard. Neverthe-
less he was there and started for the
shore,
Instead of landing at the ]. West
Roosevelt pier where visitors to the
president who arrive by water usually
land, the launch conveyed Mr.. Morgan
to the beach of w. Emlen Roosevelt,
where he went ashore. He was obliged
to walk little distance to the road
way, where one of the presidents car
riages was In waiting for him. He was
driven directly to Sycamore Hill. He
remained for luncheon with the presi-
dent and Mrs. Roosevelt and for some
time afterward.
The suggestion was made that Mr.
Morgan's visit and that of Secretary
Shaw little earlier might be more
than coincidence but 1t can be said
authoritatiyely that they had no rela-
ton at all with each other. Secretary
Shaw and Mr.. Morgan did not meet,
and the purposes of their visits were
entirely different.
