more. One hundred and two jurors were

taken. and sharp Ratchet was left sitting
by the wardrobe IN the room in which the
DR.. Mrs. Montgomery and Lucius were

In November OF the same year
burglars entered the house again,
breaking in through the parlor wins

McFalls watch, both gold watches Of value.
DIR. McFall put the matter in the hands Of
the secret service bureau of Jacksonville,
and a short time since he received a letter
saying that it was believed that his watch
was in the hands of q man In Clay county.
A business meeting was arranged, and the
doctor casually asked the time OF day,
when the gentleman pulled out the doctors

and the number given, the gentleman sur
rendered the property without objection
This led to the arrest of gentleman
in Suwannee county, and also to the arrest
OF colored man who was in the employ
OF the Savannah, Florida and Western rail-
way. This colored man failed to produce
the man of whom he got the watch, and
CO.. sequeutly was bound over to the circuit

The doctor is on the track Of Willie McFal.'s
watch, and thinks he will recover it 10 the
hands of another party, and finally get the

A Queens Gift to Her People.

In the middle of the sixteenth century
Queen Bona of Poland imported various
kinds of medicinal plants from Italy
and had them acclimatized in Podolia.
From that part Of Poland their cultiva.
ton spread throughout the region now
known as southern Russia. But the
farming of the medicinal plants was
soon abandoned in Russia. At present
there are forty-eight species growing
wild in that region. They have lost
their curative virtues, but their Italian
origin is still preserved in the names
by which they are known in the Russian
tongue. A few years ago some farmers
in the government of Kharkov again
began to cultivate them. Their efforts
proved so remunerative that many other
farmers followed their example, Now
the cultivation is carried on in four dis
tricts of that government and yields
good profits to the planters. Large
quantities of anise seed are sold in
foreign countries, yielding clear profits
of some fifty to eighty rubles per
desyatin. Chicago News.
