LUDGE MITCHELL.
A Man With Record That Ia Free
From Tarnish.

A Man With Record That Ia Free
From Tarnish.
TALLAHASSEE, FLA, Aug 7.-Hon H.
L. Mitchell, who was last week appointed
associate justice of the Florida supreme
court by Gov. Perry, was born in Jefferson
county, Alabama, about fifty years ago, and
was brought to Florida when a child by his
parents. After receiving com
mon school education in South
Florida, he studied law and
being admitted to the bar in due time, he
soon rose to distinction in his profession
For several years he was states attorney for
a southern circuit, and served moro than
once in the legislature. In 1877 he was APP
pointed judge of the Tampa circuit, which
position he has held ever since by repeated
reappointments of successive governors.
The state convention which met in st.
Augustine last May nominated him on the
state ticket for the supreme bench, which,
under the new constitution, is elective, and
being thus selected by the people as the sue
cessor of Judge Van Valkenburg after the
election in November, it was but nat
ural that Gov. Perry should appoint
him to fill the vacancy caused by Judge
Van Valkenburgh's death before the expira-
ton of his term The new judges character
is above suspicion, and his ability and fair
ness as judge are recognized by all who
know him. His successor on the circuit
bench will soon be appointed by Gov.
Perry

FALSE ALARMS OF FIRE.
A Clerk in Augusta Caught by the
Chief of the Department.


AUGUSTA, GA, Aug. IA young man
named Felix K. Bryant, employed as a
clerk in the store of MIR. Staples, on May
avenue, was arrested to-day on complaint
of the chief of the FIRE department.. The
engine companies have of late frequently
been called out by the fire alarm, and when
they reached the point whence the alarm
came, would find no blaze. Suspicion that
parties were tampering with the boxes
eliminated in fastening the guilt on Bry-
ant. He confesses having opened box.
and was so overcome by his arrest that he
was Frustrated by illness. He says
he opened the Gamewell fire alarm
boxes with a shoe buttoner and a piece of
wire, and after sending in an alarm would
close the box without a release key. This
puzzled the chief and his assistants and
caused a controversy here between the
agent of the Gamewell system and the
officers of the department, Bryant has
certainly shown himself ingenious in open
ing the box, though this will hardly mitl-
gate the offense in the courts.
