GOVERNMENT SHAD MATCHING.

Lying at anchor in the Delaware river
off Gloucester is vessel painted an i'm
maculate white, which bears the name
Fish Hawk. She belongs to the United
States Fish Commission. Her crew is
clearing her decks for action, laying out
long spawning tables and toiling away
in preparation for the millions of shad
eggs which will soon come to the ves-
sci from the fishermen up and down the
river. She covers the entire eastern
coast from the Kennebec to Key West,
and moves with the run of fish.
The work of egg collecting is done by
the crew of forty-three men, all Of
whom are experts They go out to the
fishing grounds in small boats towed by
steam launches and there secure from
the market fishermen the shad which are
about to spawn. These eggs are fertil-
lied in large pans and after several days
are placed in jars in which they hatch
in from four to seven days, the length
of time depending on the temperature
of the water. When the shad have at
tanned the size of half an inch they are
taken to the river beds and turned loose.
The Fish Hawk has collected as many
as l25, 900, 900 eggs in season, so to So

In nature, it is said. not per cent. of
the eggs hatch. The Fish Hawk has

fish are hatched they find their way
through drain pipe into an aquarium
where they remain until turned out.

WORK WHEN YOU WORK.

Advice by an energetic, efficient
business man to 8 man now going back

Take things easier and get more
fresh air. No worry. Do the most
important thing first and then the next;
generally the things you don't do
aren't worth doing. What you think
you ought to do you want to do up to
the handle and do it quick and then
forget II.
Don't putter. The way to get
along. in my judgment, is to work uI

otner barn on the upper field was blown
down and white tenant, named Geo.
Dunn. who sought shelter there. was
caught beneath the timbers and mirac-
ulously escaped with some bruises.
The grand stand on the Fair Grounds
Is complete wreck. The metal roof of
the granary to the Brick Store was
stripped tff, blown over the Millinery
Store and tumbled crashing into the
street with terrific noise. The wharf
is sad spectacle, the warehouse car
ried from its foundation and the ada
cent shed blown down. Valuable fruit
trees, simply loaded down with fruit,
have been wrecked by the score: Nota
tree was left standing and unharmed in
the yards of some of the homes here.
The ferry house was struck by light
ming, which ran down the chimney, tore
up the walls, and disturbed the peace of
its occupants. No very great damage
was done there, and with that excep-
ton. the storm was less violent ''across
the way"
The two truck cars on the wharf
one of which weighed nearly eight hun
dred pounds-are lying somewhere in
the bottom of the Rappahannock. The
top vase from Mr.. L. L. Snead's
pleasure launch and the boat capsized
and foundered.
A thirty-foot boat belonging to Mr..
G. II. Lyons, and which was being re-
paired on the river shore close by the
wharf, partook of the nature of a bal
loon and sailed distance of 100 yards,
clearing high fence and landing on the
beach Immediately in front of the Riv-
erside Hotel.
The damage to roofs of houses, win
dows, ETC., is hard to estimate. Win
dow blinds were snapped from their
fastenings and hurled from street to
street. These are only some of the in
stances that might be mentioned.
The Storm was simply local and not
general in its proportions.

TWO FUNERALS.

Reading the vivid and elaborate sto-
ries of the pomp and grandeur attend
ing the funeral of King Edward, of
England, we have been impressed by
the contrast, solemn and impressive,
between that and the burial of Moses.
describedby Cecil Frances Alexander.
As some readers may have had the
same Thought, we think it worth while
to reproduce, for the refreshment of
their memories, some of the verses
bringing out this contrast most vividly.
Recalling the long and crowded streets
Of the great city, the stately progress of
the glittering military procession, the
crowded array of kings and princes and
the great of the earth, the musical
wailing of the bands and the deep, slow
booming of the sullen grief of cannon.
our minds are awed by the other great
funeral
"By Nebo's lonely mountain,
On this side Jordan's wave,
In vale in the land of Moab,
There lies lonely grave,
And no man dug that sepulcure,
And no man saw it e'er;
For the angels of God upturned the sod
And laid the dead man there.
That was the grandest funeral
That ever passed on earth;
But no man heard the trampling,
Or saw the train go forth;
Noiselessly as the daylight
Comes when the night is done
And the crimson streak on ocean s cheek
| Grows into the great Sun
Noiselessly as the Springtime
Her crown of verdure weaves,
And all the trees on all the hills
Open their thousand leaves
So without sound of music
Or voice of them that wept,
Silently down from the mountains
crown
i The great procession swept.
But when the warrior dieth,
l His comrades in the war
With arms reversed and muffied drums
l Follow the funeral car;
They show the banners taken.
They tell his battles won,
And after him lead his masterless steed
While peals the minute gun.
And had he not high honor?-
The hillside for pail;
To lie in state while angels wait,
/ With stars for tapers tall,
: And the dark rock-pines like tossin
Il plumes
v Over his beir to wave;
4 And Gods own hand, in that lonely lane
To lay him in the grave?"

THE VIOLET.

come in gentle springtime,
When all the earth is young:
When countless hearts are thrilling
With Natures sweetest song;
L grow in shady woodlands,
In messy dell and bower;
In fields and by the brookside,
For I'm modest flower.
Sweet song-birds bid me welcome.
With songs that fill the air
With love and gladness, for the Joy
Of spring is everywhere;
The tall pines tower above me,
And wave greeting. too;
They whisper that they love me
Because my heart is true.
The lily may be fairer,
The rose more brilliant, far;
And yo lder water-lilly
Is but fallen star;
But Mother Nature blessed me,
And in her loving care
grow among the grasses,
And breathe the fragrant air.
She kissed my lips with diamonds
And pearls of morning dew,
And breathed upon my petals
IA prayer from skies of blue;
Fair children smile to greet me,
A blushing maiden, too;
l brought to her a message
Of faith, and love-and you.

THE HOMEsPUN DRESS.

Gan old war song published by request.)
(Air-Bonnie Blue Flag)
Oh. yesl am a southern girl.
And glory in the name;
And boast it with far greater pride
Than glittering wealth or fame.
We envy not the northern girl
Her robes of beauty rare,
Though diamonds grace her snowy neck,
And pearls bedeck her hair.
Chorus:
Hurrahl hurrahl
For the Sunny South so deart
| Three cheers for the homespun
l. dress
The southern ladies' wear!
The homespun dress is plain, know;
] My hats palmetto, too;
But then, it shows what southern girls
For southern rights will do.
We send the bravest of our land
To battle with the foe,
And:we will lend helping hand
We love the South you know.
/ Chorus.
Now, northern goods are out of date;
And since old Abe's blockade
We southern girls can be content
With goods that's southern made.
We send our sweethearts to the war,
But, dear girls, never mind;
Your soldier love will ne'er forget
The girl he left behind.
Chorus:
The soldier is the lad for me-
A brave heart l adore
And when the Sunny South is free,
And when fighting is no more,
| III choose me then a lover brave
From out that gallant band;
The soldier lad love the best
Shall have my heart and hand.
Chorus:
The southern lands glorious land,
And has glorious cause;
Then, cheer, three cheers for southern
rights,
And for the southern boys!
We scorn to wear bit of silk,
| A bit of northern lace,
But make our homespun dresses up,
And wear them with grace.
| Chorus:
And now, young man, a word to you;
If you would win the fair.
Go to the field where honor calls,
And win your lady there.
Remember that our brightest smiles
Are for the true and brave.
And that our tears are all for those
Who fill soldiers grave.

PICK HIM up.
If you see a fellow stumble,

If you see fellow stumble,
Pick him up.
Don't look and laugh or grumble.
Pick him up.
Maybe you'd have stumbled too,
Maybe he's as good % you.
Maybe better, if you knew,
Pick him up.
Maybe trouble threw him down,
Pick him up.
Tho the many pass and frown.
Pick him up.
You're not made Of better stuff
And you called it mighty tough
When the world has used you rough,
Pick him mp.
Maybe it was woman's smile.
Pick him up.
Of the sort that can beguile,
Pick him up.
Perhaps the chap has laid away
All he loved of mortal clay
And he treads lonely way.
Pick him up.
Life's long and tickle game.
Pick him up.
And of truth he's not to blame,
Pick him up.
Maybe ere you pass along,
You will stumble in the throng
And you'll need some help along,
Pick him up.

in THE GRIP OF STORM.
TappahannOck is Hit by a Cyclone.
Destruction in its Wake.
ITidewater Democratl D


On Sunday a little before six o'clock
p. M. this place was visited by the most
terrific electrical, rain and wind storm
that has ever been witnessed here.
For an hour or more before the storm
broke, black cloud had gathered in
the North and another in the West,
while the thunder roared ceaselessly,
and vivid flashes of forked lightning lit
up the heavens and gave warning of
the approaching storm. The clouds
which hung low about the horizon, were
suddenly lifted by flaw of wind and
came together with a clash, a little
north of the village, but almost imme-
diately overhead. There was such an
enormous fall of water for little while
from the cloudburst that it looked as if
it might have been poured from buck
cts. and objects could not be recog-
nized few yards away. But it was
not the downponr of rain, the terrific
peals of thunder, or vivid glare Of the
lightning that created CONSERVATION
among the inhabitants. so much as the
cyclone that came in its wake, and that
there was no loss of life is little less
than miracle. At this writing (Mon.
day morning) Tappahannock, which bu,
a day or so ago, presented such a pretty
picture, with its beautiful shade trees
rich inlfoliage, with its pretty residences
and enclosures of hedges of honey
suckle and creeping vines. and roses
presents singular spectacle. In al
most every yard. trees have been up
rooted or snapped off at the main bod

The oyster inspectors are the men
who make or unmake the oyster industry.
If they are men lax in their duty, the
section over which they preside will
suffer accordingly, if the men are good
and true they contribute more than
money to the welfare of the industry.
We believe our Commission of Fisheries
has honestly tried to put good men into

this will be done.-The Oysterman.
