SECURE A HOME IN THE LsHD Of Fl0aR5
DINSMORE!

One of the growing towns of the
South, is situated on both sides OF
Savan ah, Florida s. Western
Railroad, just twelve miles from
Jacksonville, Fla. 1t is high, dry
and level, and successful horti
cultural and uck-growing section
of the State. Dinsmore can be
easily reached from Jacksonville by
railroad, by water route, or by an
hour and a half drive over an excel
lent plank and she'll road.
Dinsmore is not one of the isola-
ted spots that is only laid out OIL
paper, but a thriving prosperous
town that recommends itself to
capitalist and laborer, to fathers
and wives who are vigilant over
their own interests and the welfare
of their children, to those who are
seeking homes and those who have
capital to invest for speculation.
The land can be obtained at re-
markably low figures and on terms
suitable to the condition of every
purchaser. At the present low
figures poor man can make regu-
lar payments on valuable home
with less than the aggregate of
unnecessary expense or money act
ually thrown away. IL is an in
vestment that one cannot regret
and through which you will realize
many times the amount invested.
The prices are for Front Business
Lots one acre, sos, $50, $35. Sec
ond choice, $25 $1S. Third choice
SIS. Fourth choice $40. Fifth
choice, SIS. 1t must be remember
ed that these are acre lots.
We also have vegetable and
truck farms laid out adj tcent to
DinsmOre, containing from five to
sixteen acres each, which we offer
for the benefit of those who wish to
farm at SIS acre.
Our terms are one fourth cash
and balance in one, two and three
years.
The chain of title will be short
and strong. 1t is from the State OF
Florida TO the Railroad and from
ihe Railroad to you.
D Truck farming around DlnsmOre
would be at the door of two cf the
greatest markets in the South. Let
every poor man if with but one
dollar, commence to buy lot III
Dinsmore. The fare from Jackson,
vile and return is only twenty-five
cents. Think of it. There are
eight passenger trains per day ani
the round trip will only cost TWEEN
tyfive cents. Trout creek, a large
stream passes right through the
vicinity. thus affording pure fresh
water for stock, perfect drainage
and abundance of fish.
TAKE WARNING NOW, and
do not let this grand opportunity
slip you. 1t is the very best chance
you will have to secure good
piece of valuable property and such
startling prices.
The merchants in DinSmore are
enjoying good trade and the
own is rapidly growing. Saw
mills are convenient for securing
timber to build, and laborers who
desire work can get from a dollar
and half to two dollars per day.

and how to see Dinsmole, call on

CHICAGO, Dec. ga telegram from
San Francisco published here this
morning announced that Charles F.
Merle, of San Francisco, agent of N.
K. Fairbanks s. Co., of this city, deal
ers in lard and canned meats, had
absconded with $4,000 of the firm s
money. Mr.. Fairbanks had not heard
anything definite on the subject but
was certain that if Merle absconded he
could by 10 possibility have taken as
much money as reported. The secre-
tary, Gosman, of the Fairbank Co.,
knew nothing of Merle personally, but
by reference to the books found that it
would have been impossible for Merle
to have been a defaulter of $50, 900.
He said: The amount named in the
telegram must of necessity be an ex-
aggeration by ten or twelve times.
expect the company is stuck for lit
tie, but certainly not over 1O,000. Our
San Francisco. California. attorneys
have been instructed to look after our
interests, and one of our men has just
been started to California to see how
much damage is done.

ARCH Epemv Of th. Human voice.


The Wagner school of music has proved
itself the arch enemy of the human voice
and of all rational modes for its develop
ment. The unnatural demands made
upon the vocal organs, through Wagner's
total ignorance OF the art of singing, and
the abnormal development Of the orches-
ira, through the impatient yearnings Of
his unquiet soul, have banished for the
time all chance of melody in music, and,
as Wagner's utterances are the outcome
of an age of noise and hurry, of ruined
faiths and tragedies of passion, his genius
must have its day and work its full meas
ure of harm upon the voices chosen for
the inhuman task Of personating his su-
perhuman creations.
But this time will come when the pres
emit mad havoc with the lungs and threats
of singers shall cease. Just as men begin
to see that war must be abolished, be-
cause the weapons Of war have reached
too high a power OF destructiyeness, so
the thunders of drum and trumpet in the
modern orchestra must subside, If that
sweetest music, the tones of the human
voice, Is to be preserved to the race. The
reaction must come. When the orches-
tration is made SO magnificent and so
suggestive that the voice is an unwel-
come interruption, and when the instru-
ments are so noisy that nothing of the
voice can be heard beyond a screech or a
howl, it is time for the two departments
of expression to be separated; the orches-
ira should be left to itself, and recitatives
should be delivered over to the spoken
drama There is no denying the genius
Of Wagner. His power of converting
musical instruments into echoes of hui
man passion has never been equaled, and
will probably never be surpassed; 'Lohen-
grin" ''Tannhauser" and 'Der F1iegende
Hollander" will live forever in poetry
and in song; but all the same, Wagner is
to be feared and Stunned by singers as
the great destroyer of the human voice.

THE BATTERIES sILENcIO.
Legstime's Navy Rocks the Insurgents to Sleep
Consul GouIder's Fright.


NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-The Clyde
steamer Geo. w. Clyde, from Dominl-
can ports, which got in Saturday night,
reports that while she was at Monte
Christi, which is the Dominican port
nearest the North Haytian frontier,
the Legitimists' gunboats Toussaint
Pouverture and Mansel entered the
harbor, steamed around the Clyde with
out mailing, and carefully inspected
her Mt close quarters The Mansel is
an addition to Legitime's navy.
On the 10th the Clyde,
seeking cargo entered MaDzaDilla Bay,
whose waters wash both Haytien and
dominican shores. The TousSaint l.
Overture and Mansel were near by.
Troops were seen drawn up on their
decks. Captain Holmes went off in a
gig to the dominican sioop Cleopatra.
The ToussaiDt i Overture lowered a
boat. Two officers and four marines
got into it and the boat pulled toward
the gig. 1t did not hail the gig, but
simply chased it to the slOop and back,
the marines keeping their muskets
cooked and ready.
Besides this ridiculous performance
the Toussaint L Overture, Captain
Holmes says, had the swivel gun upon
her deck trained upon the
Clyde's broadside all the time the
Clyde was in the hartor. On the 22d
the small British schooner Aurora,
Captain Wilson, flying the Dominican
flag, and loaded with provisions, prob
ably for Haytian ports, from Monte
Christi, was Overhaaled in Dominican
wateIs ny crew from the Havtian
gunboat. Captain Wilson and his
crew were taken aboard the gunboat
and put in irons. The crew of a little
brig wrecked on the Dominican shore
| was then impressed and put aboard
the Aurora as prize crew. The next
morning the gunbOat left, towing the
Aurora. They were afterward seen
| lying off Cape Hay tian, in the track OF
