Work Stopped for Winter.

The work of rebuilding the seawal around
the Potomac Park along its harbor side, I'M
der the direction of the officials of the Unit
ed States army engineers Office In. charge
of the improvements on the Potomac, has
been stopped for the winter, but will be re-
sumed again, 1t is expected in the spring.
Since the work was begun early In the sum
mer several hundred yards of the wall have
been rebuilt and raised about two feet above
high-water mark. The top courses of the
stone have been cemented In place and the
wall made strong and substantial The
work was done by stone masons and help
ers that are kept on the rolls of the engi-
neer's office, and would have been continued
longer but for the fact that the appropria-
ton available for this work was exhausted,
and nothing can now be done until there Is
another allotment with which to pay the
workmen. A few laborers are still on the
wall filling In behind 1t with discarded stone
and other material to make 1t secure against
ice and the wash of the waves. About q
half mile of the wall remains to be built on
the harbor side, This work will be done
next, and after 1t Is completed the rebuild
ing OF the wall on the Georgetown channel
side Of the park WIN be taken up.

Oyster-Taking Season.

The oySter-taking season on Chesapeake
bay and its tributaries is now in full swing,
the dredging season on the bay having
opened yesterday. In order to protect the
oysters the states of Maryland and Vir-
ginia have arranged the season so that 1t
opens by degrees. longing is first allowed
then comes dredging in the tributaries Of
the bay, and lastly, on November J. all re-
strictions as to where the dredgers shall
work are removed and the oyster-taking
season is wide open until April next. The
law regulates the size of oysters taken and
everywhere except in this city there is an
inspection law. and dealers found with UNI
dersized oysters in stock are fined. Wash
ington, however, is the dumping ground for
small oysters. which are often served at
the table as blue points" Oysters less
than an inch in length, which the laws for
bid being taken from their beds and which
cannot be sold at Baltimore, are brought
here and find ready sale and the buyer
unWittingly assists in depicting the Poto-
mac oyster beds. The opening of the
dredging season on the bay has caused the
hundreds of dredge boats which have been
crowding the harbors on the lower river
for Several weeks past to leave the river
for the more prolific dredging grounds on
the bay. The officers of the steamer
Harry Randall report having found but
three dredging boats at anchor about Col
toms wharf, where two Gays before there
were hundred if not more. vessels an

grief at Omaha. Her only boy left home
eight years ago to make his fortune. His
mother never heard from him, but she
never lost confidence that he would re-

night she faithfully kept a lamp burning
in the front window of her humble home as
a beacon to welcome his return.

the contributions of kind-hearted neighbors
Mrs. Welles often spent her last penny TO
buy oil for the lamp which must burn
nightly in the front window, and went hun

1t was the night of the wedding Of
Mrs. Bakers youngest daughter. The
mother had hidden her a fond farewell
and watched her with her lord depart.
When the wedding guests all had gone
save those who were to remain all
night Mrs. Baxter went TO her room,
dismissed her maid and gave full sway
to her unwonted hour of solitude. She
had loved her youngest daughter even
more devotedly and fondly than she
had her other two children, but she
was not grievlng over her departure
first taste of freedom she had known
In years, for her children-the prac-
teal Walter, the domineering Julia and
the spoiled Dolly-had each and all in
turn and en- concerto ruled each move
ment, great or small, of her life.
When five years ago her husband
had been the hero of a little adventure
that had shocked a shocking world and
her fond, foolish heart would have for
given him as he desired, Walter had
taken the affair into his hands, ably
seconded by his sister Julia. and before
the Frustrated, bewidered wife had
fully grasped the situation she had
found herself divorced. David Baxter,
contrite and concfatory, had been
most generous in settlements and had
then completely effaced himself from
the lives of all he held dear and had
taken up his abode in distant city.
Dolly had been too young to know
much about the affair, and to her
mothers timid proposal that the ia
ther should he asked to give the hand
of his youngest and his favorite child
i'll marriage she had lent a willing ear,
but Walter and Julia had emphatically
vetoed such an outrageous act.
An hour after the wedding ceremony
Walter had started on an important
