OYSTER BOATS EXPECTED SOON
Ice on River Rapidly Rotting-De-
lay Has Cost Thousands.

Reports received from the oyster
grounds on the lower Potomac state the
ice that has held the oyster dredge boats
fast for more than a month is rapidly
softening, and within the next day or
two the boats will be freed, and it is
thought that by the end of this week the
oyster boats will be- brought into port in
tow. The financial loss to the oyster
packing houses and to the owners of the
dredge boats on Chesapeake bay and its
tributaries in consequence of the freeze
will amount to thousands of dollars.
Crisfield, Md, alone estimating its loss at
500, COO. At that point the oyster boats
are expected to return to work today or
tomorrow.
A number of the more hardy of the
captains attempted to get their boats out
at Crisfield Saturday, but found that
while the ice was rotting, it was still
too thick for a sailboat to push through.
The first oysters landed there or at any
port on Chesapeake bay and its tribu-
taries this week will bring fancy price,
and each captain is anxious that his boat
be the first in port

ton of government employees whose work
in general is for 1.-The good Of the serv-
ice" will hold q public meeting at the

zatien is doing and on the activities its

D. Mckenzie, the chairman of the civic
betterment committee of the society, will
have some facts to present with regard
to transportation improvements now
asked for and in prospect, for the citi-
zens of this city. One thing that has
been discussed by the members of the
council is some plan by which seats may
be provided for all who ride on the street
cars. change in the hours at which
clerks come to Office has been suggested,
SO that a part of them may be due to
reach their places at one hour and part
at another with corresponding variation
in the hour of dismissal in the evening.
The purpose is that the whole schedule
shall be so arranged that only a part of
the large NUMBER of government employees
would be coming to the cars at one time
instead of practically all of them as under
the present arrangement.
A brief meeting of members will follow
the addresses, but no discussion outside
the formal program will take place.

A systematic census of men and boys
by the combined religious forces of Wash
ington is to be made next Sunday by
means of a house-to-house canvass, con-
Quoted by a force of 1900 volunteers
from Protestant, Catholic and Jewish
churches of the District. The church
allegiance and preference of each indi-
vidual will be ascertained. Race and
creed. it is declared. will be absolutely
disregarded in carrying out the project.
More than 1900 of the 1000 visitors
that will be needed to carry out the GEN.
sus have been enrolled. Urgent appeals
by pastors of more than 100 churches
yesterday morning and last evening will.
il is believed. suffice to bring out the 900
men still needed. to make the canvass
thoroughly successful. Every house in
Washington is to be visited, and every
man and boy of fifteen years or older
will be reached by the volunteer work.
ers 1t is estimated that each visitor
will have from forty to sixty men to
meet and that only about three hours
will be required to complete the work.

from the historical records of Dyna-
mite Jonnny's career, that are being pre-
pared BY Horace Smith. author of The

both the Spanish and American govern
ments were using every precaution tC
stop this very thing. This is one of the
most interesting installments of the entire
