The people living on the Boulevard
south of New York avenue are not in
very pleasant frame of mind. This part
of the town has no side walks and the
sand is so deep that stills and snow shoes
have to be used in order to navigate COM
fortably. Why can't this side of town
have as good side walks as the north side.
Geo. Hummell, the bigamist barber
who flourished n.DeLand last winter,
and who left between two days for his
own and his country's good, writes back
that he has persuaded his wife 60 that
it was sinful for them to ve'together, so
he got her job as book peddler, prom
ised to support the child and left her TO
the tender mercies of the world. This
model young man is no doubt looking
for another wife by this time.

ANOTHER FACTORY.

A Cigar Factory to be Established
in DeLand in Connection With a
Tobacco Farm.
It never rains but it pours. Hardly
had the SUPPLEMENT of last week an
nounced the establishing of the Humo-
Chemical Works at this place and the
enlargement of Cairns & Peason's fac
tory when it became known to few in
the secret that there were fattering
prospects for the establishment of cigar
factory and tobacco farm in DeLand.
Last Thursday Mr.. A. G. Morano came
up from Ybor City prospecting for the
location of cigar factory and tobacco
farm. He is fully satisfied that the finest
Cuban tobacco can be produced on this
ridge, and it is his intention to purchase
a tract of land and raise tobacco and
manufacture it into cigars. He thinks
that the tobacco would do we'll on our
fiat woods land if properly drained.
Mr.. Morano intends to purchase lot
in town and erect his necessary ware
house and factory buildings. He will
bring colony of expert Cubans to culti-
vate the tobacco, and until he produces
a crop will manufacture cigars from Gu
ban stock.
He has been in the business in Key
West for several years, but the climate
there not being entirely satisfactory, he
desires to change his location, and was
very favorably impressed with DeLand.
He says his factory will not be large
enough to cover the entire town, but that
it will produce only the finest quality of
cigars.
Mr.. Morano left Friday for Lake City,
and will return next week to investigate
more thoroughly, and if satisfactory ar
rangements can be made, will purchase
property and commence to build at once.

second class matter.
The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1889-06-24

clared Christ was preparing as the homo Of
the soul.
He dwelt at length upon the fact that its
gates were never closed, indicative Of the
utter absence OF all fear. There were no
longer foes to be dreaded. The last enemy
had been destroyed. Fear hath torment.
Here we are never free from fear We
are afraid OF fire, OF water, OF storm, of
disease, of accident, OF death. We fear
temptation, evil influence, the power OF
sin. The strongest, bravest, truest heart
is never free from fear while in tho body.
Paul was famous for his courage and true
bravery, but he was afraid that he might
fall away after having preached the Gospel
to others. But there will be no fear there.
There will be no foes there. Perfect love
casts ont fear. Love will be perfect there,
because universal and uuteigned. The
gates stand open to all eternity and no
enemy ever enters. Oh what joyful
thought How careful must we be here
to lock our stores, our banks, and even
our humble homes And then watchmen
must stand guard while we sleep. But
there tho very idea OF fear can never come.
All is love, perfect love, perfect peace.
What blisslul home that will be where
pure and holy love is the sovereign Of
every power the inspiration OF every
thought, the light OF every life and the
crown OF every brow.
"Belutiful throne for Christ our King;
Beautiful songs the angels sing.
Beautiful rcst-all wandcrincs cease;
Beautiful home of perfect pcaCcl
There shall my eyes the savior see.
Haste 70 this heavenly homo with me-"
