CRIMINAL COURT.
John Bartee Given Three Years in the
Penitentiary.

The trial of John Bartee on a
charge of obtaining money under
false pretenses was concluded in the
Criminal court last evening and re-
suited in the jury finding the de(en
dant guilty rs charged in the indict-
ment and fixing his punishment at
three years in the penitentiary.
John Bartee is a member of good
family in the Twenty-first district of
this county and was at one time con-
stable OF his district. The case made
out against him may be summed up
about as follows:
Over year ago the defendant is
alleged to have gone to an old gen
tleman named Dyer, telling him
that the grand jury had returned an
indictment against him for the lar
ceny of some old iron from mill in
the vicinity. Dyer was very much
frightened, and it is alleged that
Bartee proposed to get him out of the
scrape for $500. Dyer paid him the
money and afterward found that no
indictment had ever been returned
against him. He had Bartee arrested
and he was tried at the last term OF
the Criminal court, but the jury fail
ed to agree, standing nine for
acquittal and three for conviction
The counsel FOR the defense have
made a motion for a new hearing.
In case this is over.ruled the suit
will go to the Supreme court.
HE WILL COME NEXT TIME.
There are people in this world who
will never learn to stop mOnkeying
with buzz.saW, or TO come when
Judge Tyler sends for them. There
was a sample of this genus homo at
the court house last evening and the
probability is that he is still there.
He was summoned as a witness sew
eral days ago, but would not come.
Judge Tyler ordered the sheriff to
fetch him. AS a result he was
brought before the court and a fine
was imposed on him amounting to
$40 and the cost of getting him there.
He couldn't pay it and had to go to
Jail. The last the reporter saw OF
him he was trying to. pawn Jno.

An Elegant Affair.


AZ NAAN AcboNN1 ACthA NAAAOiASiCsl
Maybe you think we University
boys didn't have a good time Tues
day evening at the reception given
us by the faculty.
Could you have seen us you would
have said 80, would l were a boy
againW
No doubt the general impression is
that college boys have hard time
with Greek, roots and mathematics,
but it is not so with us. Sometimes
it is hard to tell who is the youngest,
the boy or the master, and then on
the other hand, there are times when
we must confess it is dry work.
On Tuesday evening all went well
and the professors and their lovely
wives made us feel at home again
with the dear companions of our
youth.
ALI that could be done, by way of
furnishing splendid supper of
oysters, meats, nuts, cream, cake,
fruits sand ! coffee was lavishly
done to make a royal bill Of fare.
To this was added the cheerful pres
ence OF the faculty and their wives,
making a royal bill of company, and
more, to crown it all, the invita-
tons were virtually put into our
hands, and a;college boy knows who
to invite every time. BY this ar
rangement every fellow had his best
girl and hence all the best girls were
there. There was a unanimity of
sentiment showing that this was one
of the very choicest entertainments
ever given in GAINESVILLE, and the
ladies of the faculty are the peers OF
any in managing such affairs. For
their great kindness we thank them.

A Good Show.

Those who have been in the mu,
scum, now at 81 Franklin street, un-
hesitatingly pronounce it the best
show for the money that has ever
been in the city. Every feature is
new and interesting, while the wild
man and the feats of Madam Harri-
son are the subjects of general street
conversation. The admission fee is
only ten cents, and you can remain
in the house as long as you please by
paying this small sum to the door
keeper. The attendance yesterday
and last night was good and every
body was satisfied.

There seemed TO be an almost unending
string of the ants, and in a minute and
half the entire body OF their victim was
covered with them. After that the taran-
tula did not move limb scarcely. At first
It attempted TO pull away the leg attacked
by the ants but finding it fastened it showed
along with the disengaged legs, moving per
haps an inch aud half, but the remainder
of its body was soon covered with the IN
sects, which devoted part Of their force to
holding the victim in place. The tarantula
only killed three of the ants. These three
yentured within reach OF the jaws of the
tarantula, which closed its mouth with u
snap, ending their existence instantly.
In four minutes the t2rantula was dead
There was not n sign of blood anywhere on
its body, though in many places were evil
dences of the fray. Near the head were
scars showing where the ants had bitten
deepest. Shortly after it closed its eyes
and allowed its head TO sag many OF the
ants withdrew, but when there was a con
vulsive jerk of one leg the ants ran up
again, and this time remained till every
sign OF animation was gone,
Then the ants removed the corpse. II
was heavy body 10 move, but they accom-
plished IL. On the flat top of the hill
the pull was rather hard and long, but
on the incline it was easier. Arrived at
the foot, the ants deserted the corpse and
returned to their homes, some entering the
holes, Others resuming the work they had
been interrupted at when the tarantula
came among them.-Texils Cor. st. Louis

ln a little account of India Herodotus
snys that it is the finest of all the countries
OF the east. He saws that with the excep-
ton Of the horses, the beasts and birds 10
India are the largest in the world. He says
the people get their gold by washing ii out,
while other people have 20 dig for theirs.
And then, "a the acme of their lazy pros
perity, he says their wool grows on trees.
"The trees there, in n state OF nature, bear
woolly fruit, which in beauty and in
strength surpasses the wool from sheep,
and the people OF India wear clothes made
from it."
This is the first allusion to cotton made
In western literature. Ii is little curious,
indeed, that no distinct reference TO it is 10
be found in the Bible, which runs back To
much further than Herudotus The Jews
must have seen cotton awnings and prob
ably cotton clothing in Babylon. and there

east ON the soil of Palestine but embodied
many cotton clothed soldiers.-New Eng

A Blind Drum mer,

"There is one of the best tobacco drum
mers in the country" remarked IL gentle
man As an elderly looking man. with n
long gray beard, in company with a young
woman, passed up Wyandotte street. The
gentleman walked arm in arm with his
companion. and no one would have noticed
anything peculiar about him until he came
to n crossing, and then his companion
spoke TO him, his step faltered, his foot
was put out, as If afraid to advance. His
eyes were turned straight ahead and never
sought the ground They were sightless.
The man was Mr.. James Harrison, of
Richmond, Va, and the woman WAS his
daughter Mr.. Harrison travels for IA plug
tobacco factory, and is regarded as one of
the best drunmers on the road. For more
than twenty years he has made the rounds
with two daughters. First one of them
grew up from girl To woman and was
married. The second one then took her
place, and has since been his constant com
ramon. She goes about with him from
store TO store, helps him with his samples
at the train and the hotels, attends 70 tick
cts and baggaEe--in short, does everything
that tender. loving woman could do for
the blind. She is his eyes The two are
