TO RESTORE YEocOMICo CHURCH.

A plan is on foot to provide fund
for the restoration and care of old
Yeocomico church, built in I7O6, in
Westmoreland county.
Bishop Gibson and Archdeacon John
Poyntz Tyler are both in favor of the
project and have given it their earnest
support.
In a pamphlet written by Messsrs.
Wat Tyler Mayo, S. Downing Cox and
Walter r. Crabbe, an interesting
story is told of the history of the old
church which ''has stood through two
centuries Of changing scenes, and has
experienced a variety of usages little
contemplated by those whose pious hands
laid its foundations"
1t is related how for seventy years
the loyal subjects of Great Britain were
required to assemble there each. Sun

it became a soldiers barracks, a school
house and barn.
During the War of 1912, the COM
munion table was removed and used as
a meat block, while the baptismal font
served as punch bowl.
Happily these relics have been recov-
cred and are now in the old church, of
whose history Bishop Meade in 1888
wrote an interesting account.
In the vestry book of the old church
appear the names of some of the most
distinguished figures in the history of
Virginia, and indeed of the whole
country.

BELLIES SEEING NEW YORK.

Monkeys, subways, and a wreck,

All had come from.the land of the
magnolia and the oleander as guests of

sweepstakes in which they had won
over five hundred competitors. One of
the contestants received two million

others were praised by hundreds of
thousands of ballots. All Georgia.
Alabama and Tennessee were interested.
Just to show what is thought of the

SOME CROP NOTES.

Keep on sowing forage crops at every
opportunity, until the end of the month
or even into August. The hay crop Is
short and something else will be needed
to fill its place. The probability is that
hay will sell well on the market next
winter. If you have made crop hold
it until the market calls for it and pro-
vide other feed for the stock in the
shape of forage crops.
The second crop of Irish potatoes
should be planted this month. This
crop is raised mainly for seed for the
early potatoes so largely grown in
Tidewater, Va They give better re-
turns than Northern raised potatoes.
The seed is selected when digging this
first early crop. The medium sized DO
tatoes, say about the size of an egg,
should be used. These should be planted
whole. Before planting, the seed
should be spread out in shady moist
place to green and commence to sprout.

OBLrrERArrsa factiousl feeling,

OBLITERATISa factional feelings
in the matter, theconceusus of opinion
among State papers and lawyers is
that the Corporation Commission did
grievous wrong to the material in
terests of the State in refusing to let
Col. Button qualify ~ Insurance
Commissioner, and put an unnecessary
indignity upon the Legislature, our
highest law-making body of the State.
If the statute 10 unconstitutional the
Commission could have carried ont
the mandate Of the Legislature and il
would not have wanted for volun teers
to test the thing before the courts.
If constitutionslly wrong in electing
Colonel Button, the whole act of the
Legislature is constitutionally wrong;
yet we do not believe this latter il
claimed by the gentlemen who ait ia
the Corporation Offices and decide
matters in advance for the Supreme
Court. II they are entitled ID
name the Insurance commissioner,
it was ~ little a. they could
do to rstify the choice of the

FISH AND OYSTER NOTES.

The newly appointed oyster police
ION the seaside), Mr.. Chandler, captured
three violaters on last Saturday near
Indian town. Likely before this week
closes he will catch others. -Nortbamp-
ton Times.
The editor of this paper has lately
met with a gentleman from the north

a view to locating plant having for it's
purpose the putting up of menhaden, or
alewives, as food product. We are
informed that the Japanese and other
orientals use these fish largely. AL
though a new industry the canning of
them is highly profitable.
The New England fisheries in 1905
broke all records. Maine contributed
to the food supply of the world, 1,OOO,-
000, coo packed sardines valued at $5,-
coo. 900, and in fresh fish alone Boston
sold $4,000, 900 worth. Gloucester, the

at s.. 750, coo, and handled fresh fish to
the value of $4,000, 600. There are
now more than 500 vessels OF all sizes
in the fishing feet, ranging in value
from 81, 600 to SIS, 900, the entire feet
being valued at about So, 0O0, 900.
The oystermen of Solomons Island,
Md, have organized an association to
be known as 1.-THE Oystermen's Pro-
tective Union Of Calvert County," with
the avowed purpose of working for the
repeal or modification Of the Haman
oyster law. The members of the as
ISOLATION are bound by pledge not to
sell or deliver to lessee or holder of
any oyster lot or bed, taken up or held
under the provisions of the Hannah bill,
and to use its influence to defeat can
didates for the Legislature, regardless
of party, who will not pledge them
selves to advocate such laws as the
oystermen of Calvert county may
favor.
We were more than pleased to meet
w. Med. Lee at Colonial Beach this
week. Mr.. Lee was hunting violators
of the oyster laws, and arrested quite
number of them. He, in a personal
conversation with us, said that the
policy of his administration would be
to protect oysters. While we have
every reason to believe and hope that
he meant what he said-in fact cannot
doubt tive are filled with amazemen,
and wonder at any information which
leads us to hope that the oysters in the
Potomac will get protection in the flu
ture. We do not hesitate to state thai
the laws bearing on that subject hav,
not only been inefficiently executed
but have been miserable forces, calling
forth the ridicule and contempt of thos,
