FLoRIDA's ORANGE BELT ROAD
The Plant System and Duvaps Road
Possible Purchasers.

The Plant System and DuvaPs Road
Possible Purchasers.
JACKSONVILLE, FLA. Nov. 12.-The
Orange Belt railway, which runs south
westerly across the peninsula, with its
termination at st. Petersburg, on the Gulf
coast, is to-day the object of much envious
attention on the part of several railroad
corporations Last Friday II. B. Plant,
with party of officials of that system,
went over the line of the road with view
to purchasing, it is said, and yesterday
President Duval and party of Florida
Central and Peninsular system also went
over the Orange Belt railway on a tour of
inspection.
THE CLYDES ALSO INTERESTED.
1t is said that the Clyde steamship line is
standing in" with the Florida Central and
Peninsular Company, and that they will
outbid the Plant people. Should this com
bination secure control of the orange belt
it would perceptibly weaken the hold of the
Plant system on South Florida and give the
Clyde people portion of the South Florida
trade and also that of the gulf A IDEAL"
OF some kind is likely to be contaminated
IN very few days.

Exchange.

1t was a high tribute that the most beautiful woman of France paid to the most fascinating of French converse tionalists. elf were queen of France" " said Madame Recamier, "I would com- mand Madame de S'ael to talk to me all the day long," This gifted woman was once driving with several distin- guished men. Suddenly they were surprised by & violent storm bursting over their heads. So absorbed were they by the vivacity of her converse tion, that rot one of them had noticed 6 sign of the gathering storm.
 MT. Hamerton says, in "The Intel- lectual Life," that Madame de Stael obtained her literary material almost exclusively by means of conversation. When a subject occupied her thoughts, she systematically directed to it the talk of learned and brilliant men. As she used conversation to catch ideas and suggestions.
 She would write a brief, rough draft of her intended literary project, which she showed to few friends Their hints were incorporated in 6 sec- ond draft, which was also shown to trusted friends. She inserted their suggestions in it, and then her secre- tary copied the corrected manuscript on paper with a broad margin for farther additions.
 During this process of incubation the ingenious woman made every one of her friends talk who was likely to be of any use to her. What she heard she either wrote down on the wide margin or incorporated in the body of the manuscript.
 She used her ears, for they were her natural providers. She used her eyes so little that she once said that were 1t not out of respect 10 custom she would not open her window to see the bay of Naples for the first time, whereas she would travel five hundred leagues to talk with a clever man whom she had never met.
 Coleridge tells an anecdote which shows that the gifted authoress could descend to the duplicity of a "societyH woman.
 Ccleridge was sitting one day with Madame de Stael in her London house when her man servant entered and asked if she would receive Lady Davey.
 'Oh, dear 1" she exclaimed, raising her eyebrows and shrugging her shoul- ders; "oh, my friend, do pity me What shall do? detest her. She is insupportablei"
 But Lady DAvey was admitted, and Madame de Stael flung her arms around her, kissed her on both cheeks, pressed her to her bosom, and told her she was enchanted to see her.

MORE TENNIS AT sEwICKLEY.

A Surprise In the Ladies' Singles. and q
Beginning for GentIemen.
Yesterday witnessed the continuation OF
the .Sewickley lawn tennis, tournament.
Contrary to arrangement, the conclusion OF
the. mixed doubles did not come of, but
stands postponed to Monday next.
The ladies' singles were, however, played
out yesterday, with the somewhat unex-
pected result that Miss Bessie Carpenter
carried off the prize-quite an appropriate
thing to carry of, by the way-namely, an
umbrella. The following named ladies
played:
Miss G. McCleary, Miss H. Carpenter, Miss
B. Carpenter, Miss c. Whiting, Miss Blair, Miss
A. Warden, Miss Gilmore and Miss B. Warden.
Miss B. Carpenter and Miss G. McCleary
proved themselves to be the fttest by their
survival, and it was on the final match be-
tween these two young ladies that interest
chiefly centered. After a hard battle Miss
Carpenter beat Miss McCleary by scores of
Go and 6-1.
The two first rounds of the gentlemen's
singles were also played. There had been
very many entries for this event, but
by the time the second round concluded few
were left to keep the fight alive. The sur
vivors-who are to fight among themselves
for the prize to-day-are Messrs. Lawrence
Woods, j. j. Brooks, r. P. Nevin, Jr., and
M. A. Christy. The grounds were in good
order and the day was favorable. 1t is
feared, however, that last nights heavy
rain may spoil the courts for to-day's play.

DRINK ENDANGERS TWO LIVES.
A Saloon Shooting In the Capital Which May
Hang the Shootist.

Hang the ShoOtlst.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.I
WASHINGTON, July 26.-It is now ap-
parent that Maurice Adler, the young man
shot month since by Frank w ard, one of
the best-known citizens of the capital, can
only live few hours longer. His case is
one of the most remarkable in the history
of wounds. Ward and Adler had diff
Guilty in saloon, after which Ward claimed
that Adler had stolen from him valuable
diamond. A few nights later they met in a
poolroom, and Ward, claiming that he
thought Adler was going to draw a weapon,
pulled his own revolver, a very small
one, of 22-caliber, and fired. The ball
struck Adler in the neck, but apparently
touched no vital part. A few hours later
the wounded man became paralyzed in
every part of his body except his head, and
has fingered in that condition ever since,
much of the time very cheerful, and con-
versing freely.
Ward, while in Jail, has done everything
possible to save Adler's life, even to procur-
ing visit from an eminent surgeon from
Philadelphia, to save him, if possible. from
being a murderer, but to no avail. Ward,
who has fine family and who has been q
very active but always erratic business man,
has the sympathy of nearly everyone,
though there was not the least excuse for the
shooting, except the fact that he was not
sober when he fired the fatal shot. A tre-
mendous effort will be made to acquit Ward,
as he is quite popular and prominent
