will be considered by a legislative
committee t'o-iiight Councilman \V. N.
McAnge left this nftern.i for Rich?
mond, It is in regard t> th.- division
of oyster grounds in the Nanseniond
river. Councllmuli M'cAtige went in
response to a telegram from Delegate
J. B. Booker. Mr. .1. C. Htibbard, an?
other-oyster dealer, also ha t a tele?
gram, hut didn't go.
Tlie grounds in mieetlon are worth
several thcusnnds of dollars. The dif?
ference of opinion mows out of a re
survey made last ye.tr of oyster
grounds supposed t>> have been own. d
by .Mr. MoAnge. A flat of eighty acres
by the new survey has eighteen ncree
clipped off and made public ground.
This is what he doesn't like. Mr.
McAhge wants the Legislature to ex?
tend the time two years that he may
remove the oysters.

Spain has officially disclaimed in
positive manner the reflections con
Uiiiieil in 'the dc Lome letter and, as
olllclally announced by the State De?
partment to-day, the incident is ?atls
actorlly closed. Thu statement given
out is as follows:
February 17, 1S9S.?
The following is an abstract of a note
sent last evening by the Spanish gov?
ernment to Minister Wood ford, at
Modi Id:
The Spanish government, on learn?
ing of the incident In which Minister
Dupuy deLome was concerned, and be?
ing advised o* Ills objectionable com'
Uiunlcntloh, with entire sincerity la?
ments the incident which was the
cause Of the interview with the min?
ister. Slates that Minister deLome
had presented his resignation and it
has been accepted before the presenta?
tion of the matter by Minister Wood
ford. That the Spanish ministry, in
accepting the resignation of a func?
tionary Whose services they have been
utilizing and valuing up to thai lime,
leaves it perfectly well established
that they do not share, or. rather, on
the contrary, disavow, the criticisms
tending to offend or censure the chief
Of a friendly state, although such criti?
cisms have been written within the
Held of friendship, and had reached
publicity by artificial or criminal
men mi. That this meaning had taken
shape In u res Motion' of the council of
ministers before General Wood ford
had presented the matter, tit a time
when the Spanish government had on?
ly vague telegraphic reports concern?
ing tlie sentiments alluded to. That
the Spanish nation, with equal and
greater reason, affirms itrs view and
decision after reading the words con-]
tallied ill ?he letter reflecting ii|r.iii the
President of tiie United States.
-\s to tin- paragraph concerning the
desirability of negotiations of com?
mercial relations, if even for effect,
and Importance of using a representa?
tive for -the purpose stated in Sen or
Dupunr deLoriie's letter, the govern?
ment expresses concern that in tiie
light of its conduct long after the
writing of the letter, and in view of
the unanswerable testimony of slmul- i
taneous -and subsequent facts, ahv
doubt should exi.-i that tlie Spanish
g ivernment has given proof of its real
desire and of p.a Innerm?st convlctlor?
with respect to the new commercial |
sysCetn and thi projected treaty of
commerce. That the Spanish govern?
ment doer; not nttw consider it neces?
sary to lay stress upon or to dem?
onstrate anew the truth and sin?
cerity of its purpose and the
unstained good faith of its intentions.
That publicly and solemnly *.he gov?
ernment of Spain contracted before ihe
mother country and its colonies th
ri ?p nslbllity or the pointed! and tariff
changes which it has inaugurated in
both Antilles, the natural ends of
which in domestic and International
spheres it pursues with flrmness.whfcii

A Young Man Who Mis?
takenly Believed He
Had Heart Disease.
He Simply Scared Himself to
Death, for His Heart Was
Sound.?What a Pity He Did
Not Take Proper Advice !
A dramatic story is told of a young man
In'Chicago who believed ho had heart dis?
ease, lie abstained from exercise and lie
avoided excitement. He dosed himself per?
sistently und imagined that only by leaning
an invalid's life could he hope lo keep death
at arm's length. One day be suddenly met
a woman who bad been associated with a
discreditable chapter in his Iiist?ry.
"My (bull my heart!" cried the young
man, and lie fell at her feet stone dead.
An autopsy showed that Iiis heart was
absolutely sound. It was the opinion of
the physicians that he might have lived to
a ripo old age if lie had taken the precau?
tion to consult a competent specialist.
The time when a physician was laughed
at for devoting himself lo one bl anch of Iiis
profession is past. So broad is the Held of
medical knowledge that m> one man can
hope to cultivate it all. The seven great
men whose portraits accompany this article
have earned tin; undying gratitude of the
world by their work as specialists.
Notice that, the frame of the pictures is a
?"5" preceded by a dollar mark. Five dol?
lars is a great or a small sum, according lo
circumstances. One thing is certain : a live
dollar bill never looks quite so small as when
it is considered as the price of a complete
diagnosis and full treatment by medical
specialists of the highest rank.
1?<> yon think the thing is impossible?
The Warner Nazaro Medicine Co.. of New
York City, has madeit possible. AttllO head
of the company Is Mr. 11. Ii. Warner, who
