OYSTER WAR OFF
FOR new SURVEY
Gov. Byrd Satisfied With Outcome
of Conference Last
Night.
By. the Associated Press.

BY. the Associated Press
RICHMOND, Va. October 15.--Fir-
ginia ''oyster war;" reported yester.
day as threatening serious proportions
with armed men preparing to sweep
buoys and markers from the York
River and Mobjack Bay, was appar-
entity thing of the past today with
a truce signed and new survey of
the ocean floor agreed upon.
Gov. Byrd. satisfied that every
thing to be hoped for had been accom-
plished at the conference hsid last
night" participated in the celebration
for Col. Lindbergh today with no
thought of the difficulty on the coast.
A temporary survey of the waters is
to begin at once with one surveyor tn
be named by the oystermen and au-
other by the fisheries commission.
with the proviso that a third man is
to be appointed by the two surveyors
in the event of conflict of data.
F. w. Darling. holding leases for
1000 acres and on whose land buoys
were destroyed, will be asked to sus-
pend operations for two weeks, the
period estimated for a permanent sur
vey, and Congers will be allowed Ia
take oysters outside this territory
pending the completion of the survey.
1t is the contention of the oyster
men that the leases made to Mr.. Darl-
ing are illegal and encroach on the
Baylor survey, made in 1892, in that
they encroach on the natural rock"
territory, whereas mud bottom is to
be leased for planting.

FLOATING ISLE AT DAM
IS DRAGGED TO SHORE
Acre. Detached From Mainland,
Obstructs Power Plant Until
Returned to Scenery.

Correspondence of The Star.
FRANKLIN. y. H.-The floating
island which ives something OF men
ace to the Franklin Light & Power
Co.'S dam at North Sanbornton
recently has been removed. The
island, about an acre in area, became
detached from the mainland some dis
tance above the dam and fioated down
to the spillway.
Workmen who removed the obstruc-
ton had never handled such con
tract before and it proved quite
problem. Hooks with cables attached
were inserted into the solid surface OF
the island and the obstruction was
pulled away in parts from the main
obstruction and dragged onto a DIS
tant shore where they now have be-
come part of the scenery.
1t Is said other sections Of ground
seem to be separating from their for
mer loca ations and are expected to be
soon floating down toward the dam.
The dam, which was built last year.
has formed pond covering more than
square miles. A lot Of woodland
has been submerged and the specific
gravity of much surface of ground is
declared to be light and capable of
floating when it becomes detached
from strata of gravel under it.

CHOCOLATES 0UTCLASS
ROSES IN COURTSHIPS
British Swains' Methods of Love
Making Criticized by
Flower Seller.

Correspondence OF the Associated Press.
LONDON.-Cupid is talking too
much with chocolate to suit the Eng
nsh Rose Growers Association.
At it's annual meeting the members
Of the association denounced sweets as
love offerings and discussed the best
means of restoring the rose to its old
position in love-making.
Mary, the middle-aged least sylph-
like of the cockney rose sellers who
sit daily in Picadilly Circus, shares
the opinion of the rose growers and
u furious about the preference of the
modern fiapper for sweets.
They'll lose their figures and it'll
be good enough for them," she de-
clared. "They can smell roses with
out undoing their makeup. but the
silly things prefer to get their rouged
lips stained with chocolate. They
look mess after they've munched
candy at matinee. What poetry is
there in sticky sweets? When / was a
girl we all wanted to be wooed with
roses. Ida Tilted my boy il he'd
sent me a tin of toffee. think the
cinema is responsible. These modern
girls can't be happy unless they are
wearing a bunch of artificial flowers
that looks like cabbage and working
their jaws while they watch Gloria
Swanson queenin' around"
