CAPT. NICK KING DEAD.
An Old Time Steam boat Captain Gone
to his Reward.


to his Reward.
Capt. Nick King, one of the Oldest steam
boat men in southern waters, died yesterday
morning at his residence in this city at the
advanced age of 70 years. In the old days
of steamboating between this city and
Florida Capt. King was O favorite among
travellers, and the boats he commanded
were always crowded with passengers. He
was the picture of the jolly, open-hearted
sailor, who looked not only to the care Of
his steamer but to the comfort
and pleasures of those whom
he considered his guests as
we'll as his passengers.
A trip on steamer to Florida through
the inland routes of Georgia, and thence up
the st. Johns TO Enterprise on a steamer
commanded by Nick King or any other of
the bluff captains of those days, left memo
ries that could be recalled in after years
with pleasure.
One of the last boats commanded by
Capt King was the splendid steamer Nick
King. She was snagged and sunk near
Darien, and was among the last OF
her class, new railroads into Florida
having taken away the business
which supported the steamers plying be-
tween this city and the Upper st. Johns.
The easy moving steamerSswth their roomy
cabins, that took two or three days to
make trip, have given place to the vesti-
bule trains which fairly watt the traveller
from point to point in twice as many hours.
The veteran captain lived to see these great
changes, and his last employment was in
the service of Que of his younger rivals for
the patronage of the Florida travellers, the
Savannah, Florida and Western railway.
In the death of Capt. Nick King a link that
connected old Savannah and later Savan-
nah is severed

WANTED IT TO BE A ZINE.

When Lawrence had taken his place with
the convicted criminals he beckoned to his
counsel and whispered something to him,
and the attorney asked the court if be
would not change the sentence to a fine.
Judge Harden said that he would fine Law
renee $3.50 and order Il restitution Of the
money Lawrence had obtained from Logan,
but added that tie severity Of ths sentence
was not because of anything in the papers
about his former exploits, or because OF his
escape, for he did not blame him for that,
but because he considered that the S25 the
prisoner had received from Logan twas an
absolute larceny Of that much money.n

THE MAN WHO CAUGHT LAWRENCE.

Officer ST Basch testified that he cad read
in the papers of DraytonS operations, and
told Logan to look out, and Logan said:
'It's too late; he has already caught me for
S25;n that Lawrence being unable to show
any credentials that he was what he pro-
fessed to be, he was taken into custody
Detective Gibson, for the past twenty-four
years in the detective service and now in
the employ of the Central system, identified
Lawrence as the man he had seen in Macon
jail Nov. - under the name of Drayton,
and that the chief Of police of Montgomery,
Ala, recognized Drayton as Dixon, the safe
burglar, but through some clash Of authori-
ties he was unable to take Drayton TO Ala
bama. MIR. Gibson recognized Lawrence
on the day that Officer Basch had him in
custody.
BaIlf Constantine detailed the escape of
Lawrence from him, and also the experience
Chief of Police Quinley Of Fernandina, had
81 b the prisoner, how he had bribed the
janitor with $50 bill and made his escape
from the Jail at that place; mis- capture o.
the train, Quinley putting him in irons, that
feeling drowsy Quinley went to sleep, but
being suddenly awakened by sudden jolt
of the train he found Lawrence with the
irons off his hands, and leaning back in his
seat noncnalantly smoking cigar.

that he had no money TO telegraph to

He could certainly get money enough to

The prisoner submitted no testimony, but
made II statement which was ingenious, to
say the least. He said that there are a
number of John Robinson's big shows, one
Of which he is the agent for; that the name
is not copyrighted; that he did not go to
Logan, but that Logan came to him; that
he never asked for the S25, but that it had
been rendered him; that the reason, John
R0binson's big show did not come to Sa-
vannah was because it had been switched
off via New Orleans to Cuba that when he
was arrested at Fernandina he was on his
way to Tampa to take a steamer
to join his show; that 81
Basch knows nothing about shows, as
there are five or six john Bobinsons and
John Robberson's big shows; that he wa
frightened by the things he heard in jail,
his ears being filed with the danger be
would run of getting ten years. and being
unable to communicate with his principals
he walked out of the police headquarters
when bailif Constantine was in another
room and kept walking; that he returned to
Georgia without a requlsition to clear Mr.
Constantine of any suspicion that ne had
