OYSTERS DISPLACE MELONS
One Season Opens And The Other
Nears Close

AS the oyster season on the Chesa-
peake Bay opens the watermelon sea-
son draws to close, and the dealers
at the wharf market say that by the
end of tbs week the season will be
practically over.
A vessel or two with the fruit
aboard from this county and from bay
points come in every day, but there
is falling off in the quantity of the
melons they bring, although yesterday
afternoon there were about 10000
melons on the market.
The demand for the melons was
good. They are selling at from 81
per hundred for the smaller up to $40
per hundred for the choice long green
ones, and it is thought these prices
will prevail until the season is over.
Altogether this melon season has
been about as good as that of prev
ious years, despite predictions to the
contrary.
When the season opened in the
latter part of July men who had
been handling melons for many years
said the supply would be small and
the season short one. When the
melon boats continued to arrive with
big cargoes they were at loss to I'M
derstand where the supply was coming
from. Judging from the season and
the quality of the fruit a hot dry sea-
son is what is wanted to make water
melons fine and plentiful.

SHIPS SHOOT UP KITES
New Three Inch Gun For Destroying
Aircraft Proves Effective

That the newly invented 3-inch gun
especially designed to destroy air
craft will do the work was demonstrate
ed Tuesday and last night, when
gunners on the battleships Louisiana
and Mississippi and the scout cruiser
Salem destroyed five aeroplanes and
those on the Virginia, New Hamp-
shire, North Carolina and Connecticut
seven more.
The aeroplanes or box kites were
made fast to torpedo boats. They
were permitted to soar to height of
500 feet, then 500 feet and then / 200
feet. The shooting that night was
conducted with the aid of searchlights
and without them. Tiny lights tied
in the box kites furnished the only IL
Elimination for the gunners when the
searchlights were not in use.
In addition to the newly invented
gun the sharpshooters on the Louisi-
ana did some excellent work with
small arms. The night work exceed
ed expectations and the high scores
registered by the gunners greatly
pleased Admiral Osterhaus.
Today the entire feet excepting the
cruiser Washington will probably par
ticipate in aeroplane shooting. Every
ship in the fleet has from three to five
aeroplanes on board, and it is presum-
ed that the gunners will be called on
to destroy them today.

SOME NAVY YARDS MUST co
U. S. Has More Than England, Says
Sec'y Meyer Humanity to
Deserters

A special cable dispatch to the New
York Sun from London, September
6, has the following:
George Won l.. Meyer, Secretary of
the Navy of the United States, who
visited Portsmouth yesterday and in
spected the detention camps at Alder
shot today, left for the Barrow-in-
Furness tonight. Before leaving he
said that from his observations he
was convinced that there must be a
reduction of expenses and economy at
the dock yards in the United States.
America" he said, "has twice the
number of dock yards that there are
in this country, yet the navy of the
United Kingdom is twice as large as
that of the limited States. There
must be sweeping reductions at our
navy yards on the Atlantic coast"
Secretary Meyer was delighted with
the detention camps at Aldershot,
both for army and navy deserters.
He said afterward: tThey handle
deserters much more humanely here
than we do. There is room for con-
siderable improvement in this respect
in America"

OLD WHITNEY ESTATE
Homes On Severn Tract-Big Water
Front Development

Daily the land on the Severn River,
the Hudson of Maryland, becomes
more and more popular as home sites.
The announcement was made yester-
day that the large tract of land on
the Severn river, recently purchased
by a number of Baltimoreans from the
Whitney estate. will be laid out in
five-acre lots for development. The
purchasers have formed company,
to be known as Arden-on-the-Severn,
Incorporated.
The officers of the newly Incorporate
ed company are the following: Presi-
dent, Henry Keidel; president. j..
Edward Duker treasurer, Arthur
Boehm; secretary, NJ E. Ferguson,
and attorney, Rignal w. Baldwin.
Within few weeks the work of
putting the place in shape will begin.
One of the features of the develop
ment is that every lot will have a
water front. After the tract is sur
veyed and laid out, avenues will be
built and a system of electric lighting
will be installed.
The promoters will aim to make the
place one of the best settlements in
that section of the county All cot
tages will be built from plans approx

MUST SHOW UNIFORM RESPECT
Rear-Admiral Reynolds Scores The
Treatment Of Enlisted Men-And
Resents Slur On Uniform

No liberty parties of enlisted men
will be allowed at Norfolk or Ocean
Grove, N. j., unless respect be shown
the uniform of the United States
Navy.
This is intimated by Rear Admiral
Alfred Reynolds, commanding the ma
val training station at that port, who
has written long communication to
the Industrial Commission.
Admiral Reynolds mentions one in
cident of apparent disrespect to the
uniform at Ocean View. He charges
that sailors in uniform were denied
the privileges of dancing at the resort
and were told to discard the uniform
of their country for civilian clothes.
Admiral Reynolds declares that
Norfolk is fast getting to be an un-
popular port for enlisted men because
of the bar put on the uniform there.

THE GROwTH OF KANSAS.

The growth of Kansas in the first
fifty years of her existence as state
cannot be better illustrated to Dick
inson county people than by COM
parison of the state and county.
In 1851, the year of the admission
of Kansas into the union, the school
population of the entire state was
only 4,9O1; this year the school pop
ulation of Dickinson county alone
is almost twice that of the state
in its first year-7,424, which fact
indicates that Dickinson county has
nearly twice as many people in 1t
today as Kansas had after ten years
of territorial life. The school popu-
lation of the state this year was
enumerated at 516,10S.
From these figures citizens may,
conceive some idea of what the
county alone should expend upon
her schools If she wishes to carry
out the ideals set by the founders
of the state Of Kansas.

rejuYenated by Pastor RUSSELL in
a syndicate sermon, that "fifty-seven
men, the greater part Of them in the
prime Of life, were resigning from
the Methodist ministry in the Upper
Iowa Conference" OF both of these
statements we can say with the good
old lady who shouted in response to
a wild statement of her pastor,
Thank God, that's lie" The facts
are that instead of 1t taking more
than one dollar to take a dollar to
the mission field, the entire cost Of
administration ranges from five to
twelve cents-the most economically
conducted business in the world.
And, instead Of the supply Of minis
ters falling off, the increase OF min
listers in the United States is 1000
a year. This, however, is not enough
to supply the 5000 new congrega-
lions that need pastors.
There are some things the matter
with the churches. That is not to
be denied. There always will be
something the matter with them be-
cause their members are simply hui
man folks, but folks, thank God, who
are struggling toward the right.
The church makes mistakes, but
1t is still the one organization that
is unselfishly trying to make the
world better and give it vision of a
redeemed humanity on earth, and
also country where we shall work
for an age at sitting and never be
tired at ALL"

REEs AND THE WOOL BILL.

The Abilene Reflector says Mr..
Rees has voted with Uncle Joe on
practically all the legislation before
congress, and thinks the Kansas City
Star is a little Disguised with our
representative because he supported
President Taft's veto Of the wool
bill. The Star thinks 1t strange Rees
should vote on the same side as
the standpatters. being elected as
progressive. The Reflector, know
ing Rees to be q Republican, does
not expect him to vote as Demo
crat, which the Star would like him
to do on these Democratic tariff
bills. Yet the Reflector, out of 10y
atty to Mr.. Rees' predecessor, thinks
1t must taunt him for what 1t knows
he is right in doing, and what It
is glad to see him do.j-Minneapolls
Messenger.
The Reflector is not haunting
Mr.. Rees. 1t is commencing him.
He did exactly right in voting with
Uncle Joe. He was wrong when in
the early part Of his campaign he
hedged on saying he would vote for
Cannon II Cannon was the caucus
nominee for speaker; he was right
later when he said he would so vote
and the Reflector commended him
for It. This paper has always re-
tanned for itself the blessed privilege
of having opinions of its own and
not being afraid to state them, re-
gardless of whose acts 1t was dis
cussing. But 1t does rather amuse
us to see lot Of insurgent papers
like the Star that doomed Rees
thinking he would be a running mate
for Bristow and LaFollette go up
in the air when he voted with the
standpat regulars like Cannon, Phil
Campbell and Dan Anthony lnsteau
of with Murdoch, Jackson and Young.
The Star devoted an editorial to
Rees Saturday which was scorch-
ing arraignment from the Stars
point of view AMI 1t is interesting
to see the insurgent papers OF the
Fifth district which have been fol-
lowing the Star and throwing fits
when any congressman from Kansas
voted with Cannon try to square
themselves on Rees' record. Rees
did right in voting against the wool
bill; he voted exactly as Mr.. Calder
head would have done. We are
glad to see the insurgent papers that
were for free wool fall in line

The Outlook lacks a great deal
of being an administration paper
but 1t is honest and fair and sensi-
BILE, says C. F. Scott, and hence 1t
approves President Taft's vetoes OF
the pop-gun tariff bills. "The SOON
err the country demands" it says
land the sooner congress accedes
to the demand that all future re-
vision of the tariff shall be based
on information obtained by a nom
partisan, scientific expert board the
better for the interests of the peo-
pie Of the United States. In the
Judgment of the outlook, 1t would
be wise for the country to adopt
as a whole the plan for honest and
intelligent revision Of the tariff, and
to wait until next December for the
report of the expert tariff board De-
fore demanding further meddling
with the tariff"

Says the Lawrence Journal: e.

Says the Lawrence Journal; "A
few days ago Judge Smart wrote a
letter to the public returning his sin
cere thanks for mentioning his name
in connection with the congressional
nomination but saying that he had
given up all ambitions in that line,
that he wanted peace and quiet and
the good will Of his fellow men. He
has received a letter from Ed. Mad
ison, the strongest man in the Kan
sas delegation, complimenting him
on his decision and saying that there
was absolutely nothing in this con-
gressional life. Mr.. Madison went
on to say that 1t was trouble and
annoyance all of the time" All of
which Is hot air. A congressman
gets 1880 a. year with perquisites
and appointments that usually go
into his own family worth at least
$4,000 more. He spends about half
the year in Washington; the remain
der of the time he is raking in
shekels on the chautauqua plat
form or elsewhere. Nothing in it?
Then why does Mr.. Madison work
like thunder to stay there? We al
ways suspect that congressman put
up that sort of talk to keep down
the supply of candidates.
