A GIGANTIC FARM.
The PeninSular State to Have
One of $4,000 Acres.
Large Enough to Supply New
York City With Food.

Will BE the Largest Farm in the World,
Company of New York and Southern
Capitalists Backing the Schcme-Sugar
Cane and CooOanuts to BE the Principal
Products Cultivated.
New YORK, June 30.-A company has
just been organized, with capital stock
of 81 900, 900, for cultivating a farm Of
112 900 acres in Florida. This will be
the largest farm in the world, and upon
it enough could be raised to supply the
city of New York with food The name
of the company is the Sebastian Land
Improvement, Sugar and Investment
company The farm lies between the
Indian, San Sebastian and st. Johns
rivers and is drained into the st. Johns.
The farm has n muck soil similar to that
in the valley of the Nile.
Most people think Of Florida as a sand
heap, streaked here and there with
hummock land, but the presence of this
great tract of most fertile land of soil
rarely found in tropical countries. proves
the general idea erroneous, The com
pany does not propose to raise cereals OF
garden stuff, but only sugar cane and
cocoanuts, especially the latter. This
will be in the nature of an experiment,
as cocoanuts are not indigenous to Flor
ida. The company is composed of New
York and southern capitalists. The land
was bought from a syndicate of young
men of New Orleans, headed by Mr.. w.
w. Wallace, who has stock in the enter
prise and will be president of it.

1t Worried the Child.

A wonderfully precocious flve-year-old
girl listened, while apparently taking nc
notice, the other afternoon, to a converse
ton between her mother and visiting
friend The ladies were discussing the
financial straits of young married couple
of their acquaintance, and both freely won

the conduct of the wife's parents in the
case. The condition would be so much
ameliorated, they decided, if Mr. and Mrs.
s., living alone in wealthy, luxurious
home, would bring the young people under
their roof, and thus they chatted over the
matter
That night little Ida aroused her mother
near midnight, She hurried to the crib in
the next room to her own to find the child
wide awake and evidently full of absorb
ing thought.

DUG UP A" FORTUNE.
A Box of Continental Script Found ut
Lcavenworth, Ind.


LEAvENwoRTH, July 1. - Eight
months ago Leavenworth was nearly
destroyed by fire. In the burned section,
while worBmen were sinking the founda-
ton for II brick building which is to re
place the old wooden structure belong
ing to Josiah Shaw, was found part of
an old sunken boat, in which Mr.. Shaw
found copper box about nine inches
square. The box, though deeply COW
cred with yerdigris, is in perfect state of
preservation. 1t was fastened by Il brass
lock, except the hook which was once of
iron, now bar of rust. This broke rs
soon as tried by Mr.. Shaw.
Upon examination the box was found
to be thoroughly packed with continent
al script. No one but the possessor can
surmise the amount, but one of the
workmen declares that he saw several
81 900 and $500 notes. This man de-
clares that the box contains enough
wealth to rebuild the burned district
ten times over The box is inscribed
A'H. b., 1922" Mr.. Shaw is very reti-
cent, and pretends to think that the
United States government will not honor
these old promises, but he has already
refused to take 20 per cent. of the face

CAN'T Do II.
CHILEAN InsurgeYt Eny0ys viii
Not BE ReC0gnized.
Uncle Sans Action Governed
by Precedents.

1t Has Been the Uniform Custom Not to
Recognize Revolutionary Movements in
Any of the American Republics, and
Undoubtedly No Exception win BE
Made In the Case of Chill.
WASHINGTON, July don Pedro
Montt, the Gillian congressional envoy,
has not yet made his appearance at the
executive mansion or the department of
state. 1t now begins to appear that the
mission with which Senior Montt and his
associates is charged is failure in SO far
as their official recognition by the
United States government is concerned
and it is improbable that they will be re-
ceived in any capacity, either officially
or unofficially, by any executive officer
OF this government.
A person well versed in diplomatic
practices, thoroughly acquainted with
the history of the department of state,
said the reason for the adoption of this
course by our government was broader
than any of the questions involved in
the present case, and was founded upon
o uniform line of precedents running
back to the date of our civil war. Early
in the history of the rebellion the Con-
federacy sent representatives to London
and Paris to secure recognition for their
cause.
MIR. Seward, then secretary Of state,
promptly instructed Messrs. Adams and
Dayton, United States ministers at Lon
don and Paris, respectively, to notify
the governments of Great Britain and
France that the reception of these con-
federate agents, either officially or
privately, would be regarded by the
United States rs cause for breaking off
diplomatic relations. Further than
this, Mr.. Seward refused to receive a
joint note of the British and French
ministers ref5fring to the state of civil
war in the United States and undertake
ing that their governments should act
strictly us neutrals.
The secl etary's reply to this last state
ment was that the governments could
only act as friends of the United States.
Later on Mr.. Seward refused to hold
any intercourse with Emperor Max
imilian, then striving to establish his
empire in Mexico, or even receive from
him IL letter of coincidence on the death
of President Lincoln.
So it has been the uniform custom of
the United States government, and
custom which will not, i'll the Judgment
of diplomates, be broken in the case of
the CHILEAN insurgents, TO refuse to rec
ognize revolutionary movements in
American republics 1t is said in diplo-
matte circles that this custom is founded
upon good policy and tends to conserve
American interests. Revolutions among
our neighbors on this hemisphere, it is
asserted, obstruct commerce, injure
Americans resident at the disturbed
points and bring about untold compica-
tions, SO that good policy dictates an ad-
herence to the established government,
so long as it can maintain itself in
power, which it is assumed it cannot
long do against the will of a majority of
the people.
