NEW ERA IN STORE
FOR THE OYSTER

PRINCESS ANNE, Md, March 19--
With 26,0OS acres Of oyster bottoms
leased In less than eleven months
since the approval Of the amendment
restoring the Haman law to its orig
inal state, the friends of oyster Gull
ture believe that a new era has dawn
ed for the industry In Maryland
The significance OF these figures Is
apparent when 1t is borne in mind
that in the preceding six years the
total area leased and applied for
amounted TO 1000 acres, Of which
only 1,045 acres remain In force. This
area, added to the 26.00S applied for
since, brings the grand total OF leases
made and pending up to an aggregate
of 27,053 acres.
Members OF the Shellfish Commits
sion are also In high glee over the
fact that the commission, for the first
time since its reaction, is self-sup-
porting. and promises to turn over TO

WdTu the SOlQl6TS. NOW the DUCT
ness is directed at the soldiers be-
cause of the flag incident, and it
wouldn't take much to start battle.
Before Z O'Clock Saturday morning
about 1000 striking miners, headed
by women, one of whom was carry
ing the silk flag, were parading the
streets of Calumet toward their head
quarters. At the corner of two
streets, about block from their hall,
they were. halted by the town mar
shall, nine deputies and some state
cavalrymen and infantrymen.
Captain Blackman ordered the
miners to turn back and go the other
way. A woman carrying the flag
said: Come on, boys" King says
the soldiers pushed the flag back as
the woman held it up. She said:
"This flag is for freedom and we
want freedom" s
Then Captain Blackman gave or
ders to dispense the crowd. Frank ].
King grabbed the. flag from the wo-
mans hands, held it in front of him
horizontally. and cried:
"This flag will protect us. Don't
move"
King says Blackman then struck
him in the face with one hand and
knocked down the flag with the other
and then struck the eagle from the
pole of the flag with his saber.
Another soldier then pointed a re-
volver at me-" said King, "and said:
Give me that flag or FL kill you
replied: 4 won't give you this flag.
Kill me now. I'll die before l give
you this flag out of my hand" King
says he was then struck on the head
and the flag was struck twice and
that a bayonet was thrust through
the flag.
Captain Blackman says, he halted
the parade himself to keep the strik-
ers from going toward the Red Jacket
mine DrOnertY

Trinidad, Col, Sept. 15-Danger
of a strike of 5000 coal miners in the
Southern Colorado fields is imminent.
The wage scale convention of the
miners of Colorado, Utah and New
Mexico began today. The feeling is
general that a strike is inevitable and
that it may be called early next week.
Governor Ammons has failed to
bring the operators into conference
with the miners, and the operators
themselves have ignored the invita-
ton of the United Mine Workers to
attend today's conference. The state
is practically without coal and cold
snap at this time would bring great
suffering. . :. a.asss-,.s ..a...........

told by eye witnesses among the
strikers is stronger than have told

There is much bitterness among

pean novelty. which he will present

profound hope that his farmer
neighbors at Brook, Ind. will not

but he has feared that his fellow
Hoosiers would regard II, not as a
great evolutional step in advance.
but as prima facie evidence OF
senility.
The buttonhole watch. he be-
lieves. cannot be considered effemi-
nate. because women have no lapel
buttons. The timepiece peers
through the lapel with face about
as large as the nail on the little
finger. This continuance Mr.. AIDE
finds rather inconvenient when. in
the presence of staid New England
women. he has to remove his coat
to find out what time II is.
