4 DASTARDLY MURDER.
William B. Porter Murdered While
at Work in an Orange Grove.

William Is. Porter Murdered While
at Work in an Orange Grove.
| News reached the city yesterday morn
ing that Mr.. William B. Porter, who lived
about two miles beyond Welaka, at
Orange Point, in this county, had been
assassinated by some unknown person or
! persons on last Tuesday. Later we learn
ed the following particulars of the diabol-
| ical deed:
It seems that Mr.. Porter had the care
of a large grove at Orange Point, and
on Tuesday was at work as usual in the
| grove when the assassin fired on him
with a shot gun, putting seventeen large
buckshot in his body, two of them strik-
ing vital parts, one through the heart,
which, to Judge from the surroundings,
| produced instant death, as he seemed to
have fallen in his tracks. From the
| tracks left the assassin stood about sew
enty-five feet from Mr.. Porter when the
fatal shot was fired. The body was found
by Messrs. c.. c. Mason and Howard
Jones at about six o'clock on Wednesday
afternoon, and an inquest was held 10y
Squire George A. Squier yesterday morn
ing, but there was not sufficient evidence
produced to warrant the arrest of any
one. We learn that everything possible
is being done to ferrit out the guilty
party, and it is to be hoped that he will
| soon be arrested.
! This sad death of Mr.. Porter has cast
gloom over the entire community, as he
had many warm friends in the neighbor'
hood. Mr. Porter was about thirty years
of age, and leaves wife to mourn his
untimeIy death. He had been in charge
of the grove about three or four years
and from all we could learn seemed t.
be on friendly terms with all who hac
dealings with him.

1t is the custom Of sightsecrs to at
tempt to portray the beauties of nature
with cold type. In some instances it
can be done to a feeble extent. Of Sho-
shone Falls no man living has the power
to convey even the faintcst conception.
Colorado probably affords scenery fully
as rocky, rugged and awe inspiring, but
nowhere on the earth's surface exists
such q weirdly grand combination of
rock and water, of high ledge and tumb-
ling cataract. The Snake river comes
from the Teton mountains, and being
fed from the SHOWS, which lie there the
year around in great volume is the cold
est body of water on the continent Its
source is 1900 feet above the sea level
and it drains the whole Teton and Vel
I1wstone country. The scenery along
IFS banks from its source to where it
lows into the Columbia is Of the grand
est nature. For 900 miles across Idaho
and oregon it has cut a passage through
basaltC rex, leaving in some places

A WORTHY BILL,

One or two philanthropic ladies are now
supporting from their own purses the Calf
fornia Home for the Care and Training OF
Predetermined Children. They propose
to the State that it take the fund on hand
and make the institution State charge.
These feeble-minded children are wards OF
the State, and as chargeable to the State
as are the insane. Unless separately cared
for. these unfortunates are sent to the In
sane Asylum, where they DO not belong,
and where no proper training can be given
them. A bill for the acceptance and
maintenance of the institution has passed
the Assembly. 1t should pass the Senate
Every humane consideration demands it
1t is in line with the policy of other States
and is in the interest Of broad and de
serving charity. Let the Senate rist
equal to the appeal made to it, and con
firm the action of the Assembly.
