Remarkable Arctic Voyage of the Steam.
ship Thetis In Unknown Waters.

Remarkable Arctic voyage OF the steam
ship Thetis In Unknown Waters.
The next day the Thetis overhauled sew
eral whaling vessels, one of which, the
Jane Grey, manned her rigging and cheer
ell for the Thetis, compliment returned
by Uncle Sans ship. The Thets had res
cued the Grey in 1888, when the latter had
been capsized, and the captain of the Grey
had resolved always to honor his preserver;
so up in the Arctic, with the pack only a
mile away, the vessel manned her rigging
and passed the most stately of marine COM
pliments.
At half past 10 of Sunday, September s,
the Thetis, standing westward, sighted
Herald Island, high, gloomy and forbid
ding-a little, inaccessible rock in the mid
die of the great Arctic ocean. Ten years
before, almost to the day, Captain De Long
had been caught in the ice where the Thetis
now sailed free; not trace of ice was Wis
able now, the high rock bore but little
snow, and the Thetis plunged along within
two miles of what, until within few years,
had been deemed an outlaying spur of a
vast Arctic continent, 50 seldom had it been
seen.
Still westward steamed the Thetis. and
as gloomy Herald Island sank behind her
gloomier Wrangel Island rose before her
post of an unknown continent. The island
lifted itself up plainly; Berry's Peak tow.
cred aloft as the Thetis drew near, grander
and more gloomy than ever, in the dusk OF
an autumn day.
There were no sails in sight, and Captain
Stockton determined to put about, more
than satisfied with the trip he had made
from Herschel Island to Wrangel Island
within thirty days! Never before had such
voyage been made.
So the Thetis turned eastward again,
leaving the great lonely island behind her,
and the land sank slowly back into the
ocean whence it had risen, and the sun
went down and the moon came up; and
from the land of ice the Thetis steamed
southwark, out of the frozen ocean. victor
in a hand-to-hand struggle with the pow
ers of the Arctic, and doer of deeds that no
vessel ever before her had done-Robert
Gordon Butler in Scribner's.

Nothing adds so much to the beauty of

One of the secrets of bad luck
among the farmers of Middle Florida
lies at the roots of production and
consumption. In many, very many,
instances they consume more than
they produce, and many, if they do
produce as much as they would con-
sumo, sell the same for a mere song,
and six months thereafter buy the
same quality back for treble the price
they sold for. Stop such NONSENSE
cal work or there will forever, and
two days thereafter, be howl all
along the line about hard times and
lack of prosperity will prevail to an
alarming extent. Generally speak
| ing the farms we alluded to are car
rving too much dead weight. I'm.
load and resolve that in the future
that to be successful we must devise
ways and means by which the pro-
ducers will be in excess Of the nom
producers.
ANY man who can bear the ex-
pense of starting off a cotton crop
can grow grass.

kept account with one tree that bore
one bushel and three pecks and only
light honey peaches, all of which
leads US to believe that in Florida as
elsewhere if a thing is worth having
it is worth caring for we'll, these
peaches were simply luscious and
far superior In flavor to any from
California that we have ever tasted
many a one while there and living
near to them.

AFTER EIGHT YEARS.
A Sturdy Young Ironworker Fulhlis
BoyhOod Promise Of Marriage.

A sturdy Young Xronworker FulAlls o
Boyhood Promise Of Marriage.
Eight years ago Hattie A. Stats and
Frank A. Lynch attended school in
Pulaski county, Ills. The girl was
twelve and the boy sixteen years OF age.
One afternoon he accompanied her part
Of the way home from school and told
her of his plans His purpose was to 60
to Pittsburg, where he would enter some
iron establishment and prepare himself
for the battle of life as q mechanic. He
had no taste for farming.
Some day he would return to the
neighborhood and claim her as his bride
If the girlish love was not changed. One
year later the parents Of Hattie died and
she was placed in an orphan asylum,
where she remained for several years
She finally secured employment as help
in a private family in Springfield. A
few weeks ago she came to Gainesville
from Illinois to accept employment In a
private family. Three days after her ar
rival she received a letter, forwarded
from Springfield, postmarked Birming-
ham, Ala. 1t was from Frank.
Inquiries among former friends and
acouaintances In old Pulaski secured
him her address in Springfield. He was
now a man able to provide, and, If she
80 desired it, he would come to redeem
the parting promise. He had gone from
Pittsburg to Birmingham few years
ago.
Hattie's answer reminded Frank that
eight years had interviewed since they
parted. It was long time, and vast
changes in personal appearance took
place between boyhood and manhood
and girlhood and womanhood. Before
she could answer his question and &C
cept his offer of 1883 he must see her as
she is. Her removal from Springfield to
Gainesville and the circumstances under
which it was made was quickly told.
"Yours, as ever" preceded the sigma
ture, which was followed by the inevi-
table postscript. It was confined to the
sentence. Send me your picture in your
working clothes. and by return mail ]
will send you mine in my best"
The following Tuesday Frank put in
an appearance preferring, as he said. to
see her in her working clothes and to
Judge of the state of her heart by taking
her unawares Friday the license was
obtained and Saturday they were mar
ried. The "private family" were given
one weeks notice of leaving.
The following morning he took the 8
o'clock train for Birmingham to prepare
a home for her, leaving her amply sup
piled with funds to make the journey to
Alabama, when he wired her "Come. !"
The message soon came. 1t is a three
room cottage, with flower garden in
front.--Cor. ST. Louis Globe-Democrat
