There is considerable complaint because
the railroad drawbridgc is not opened
more promptly, vessels being detained
when trains are due within ten minutes.
The quickest way to settle the matter
would be for some good stron vemel to
assert her rights and carry the rid? off.
Vessels have the right of way. utit
doesn‘t amount to anything if the rail-
road company can defy the law.
Yesterday we noticed a large quantity
of flour arriving at Seymour Brothers.
\Vashington street, and going inside we
found that the new firm have complete-
ly transformed the store. The whole in—
terior has been repainted and kalso~
mined. and all the goods overhauled. so
that everything looks as though the store
had just been opened. They have an
announcement in another column calling
attention to the inducements they hay‘c
for close purchssrra of the beat goods in
their line. ‘
These are good times with our oyster
shippers. ordcrs coming in lively. and so
as to use up stock about as fast it can be
obtained. Reed & Housman shipped ifs")
barrels Tuesday. and have orders for reg-
ular weekly; shipments of 45 barrels for
Ziimpe. Capt. Bell ships large qualiti-
lies as does Mr. Merrill. and l‘. Rciiison
is doing his usual winter trade. The
trouble for planters has been a little
greater than usual. but- the ready market
for their ovsicrs is some cmnpensation
for this. rue trade is expected next
month with .Europe. and better prices
are anticipated. Thus for oysters for
European shipment have had to be fur—
iiislied considerably below last seasons
prices. and owners are not anxious to
sell. and will hold for an advance. which
will have to be paid if the oysters are
obtained.

Frank “card's "Chalk Talk.“
In spite. of threatening clouds it very
large assembly gathered last Monday
evening to hear Prof. Frank iii-ard‘s‘
“Thrill: Talk." lf numbers be consid-
ered. this may bc said to have liccn the
most successful lccturc iii the course
thus far. And if we may judge from
the manifestations of delight there can
be no doubt about M r. llcard‘s success in
entertaining his audience. He believes
that humor is a medicine for the ills of
life. and he is ublc to bestow it in gciier~
nus doses. In his off-hand skciclies.
drawn rapidly and with few strokes. he
shows unrivalled talent. and in the line
of caricature is certainly not excelled.
Murder in Bridgeport.

house. occupied by Charlie Twitchcll
and a woman w ho is supposed to be his

bcmi assisting hcr dressiiiiikiug. Mon-
day night in the neighborhood of nine
or ten o‘clock. three young men by the

George Butler. all of Bridgeport. called
at the Twitchcll lioiisc. and after talking
a short time tried to commit rape upon
Mary Lewis. Twitclicll‘s wife siczcd
hold of a Ballard gun. which was loaded
with shot and tlircatcncd to shoot the
young fellows if they didn‘t desist. This
scared them. and they started as if to go
off. They turned back however and
llishop got hold of the gun and in tho
scuttle that ensued the gun wont off.and
thc contents struck Marv Lewis in the
throat. causing her death. Wlicthcr lit.‘
deliberately shot her or not is a question
to be determined. The authorities heard
of the affair curly Tuesday morning. and
ofliccm Arnold. Taylor and Jeniiing vis-
ited the scene of the crime. They were.
fortunate in getting ii good description
of the men. and at 10:30 they were se-
curely lodgnd in the station. Mrs.
Twitchcll was also taken under arrest.
John Bishop admitted the affair. but
said the deed was accidental. ‘
