That Florida is to be the haven or re-
fuge and recreation this year is manifested
by the travel already directing itself there.
To meet the demand of many who cannot
afford the time nor expense of several
months sojourn in the land of sunshine
and soft breezes, the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company has announced series OF
five tours to leave New York January
goth, February Sd aud 18th, aud March
Sd and 18th at the remarkably low rate of
$1,000 from that city, and $48,00 from
Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington.
Tourists will travel in Pullman Palace
Cars in charge of Tourist Agent and
Chaperon. A limit has been plade allow
ing one hundred and fifty passengers only
to each tour, so that applications for space
aud tickets should be made well in ad-
vance.
The round-trip rate includes Pullman
accommodations and meals en- route in
dining car attached to the train, and tick
cts will be sold from all principal stations
on the Pennsylvania Railroad system to
connecting point with the special. For
detailed information and descriptive It'll
nerary application should be made to

WELTER-WEIGHT JONES.
He Whipped a Mayor, and Says He
Is Glad of Ii.

LA GRANGE, Tex, Feb Rev. Sam
Jones delivered lecture at the opera
house here last night. On being ques-
toned as to the unpleasantness at Pal
estine, he spoke freely of the matter,
and said he was on the depot platform,
waiting for train with valise in his
hand, when a man stepped up and
asked:
rs this Sam Jones?" To which l re-
piled: THAT is my forgiven name"
1.-The fellow" said Mr.. Jones, then
hit me in the face with cane, cutting
a deep cash across my cheek, and also
hit me on the shoulders. l then put
down my valise, grabbed the mans
cane, wrung it out of his hand, and
started in and literally wore him out.
We separated, and l left him in the
hands of some doctors for repairs. L
have learned that the pugiliStic gentle
man is the mayor of Palestine. He will
know who to jump on the next time. 1t
was pitiful sight to see the fellow try
to draw his pistol. l am glad he could
not get it out. for L would have taken it
away from him and might have had to
kill him. l dislike this very much, as l
have been out of this line of business
for the last eighteen years. am afraid
this kind of thing is not going to stop
here. Some smart Aleck will want to
whip me again. won't have any peace
till | kill some one. l criticized the
town government last fall at Palestine
for permitting all kinds of violations of
law. The keno call of gambling denS
could be distinctly heard by ladies at
church during hours of service, and
plead for women and children. l never
saw the honorable mayor before. l
called on him to come up on the stage if
he was in the audience, but he did not
appear, nor did he offer to whip me last
November"
Mr.. Jones seemed to feel sore and
fatigued, but his lecture here was sue
cess.
PALESTINE, Texas, Feb. 6.-Mayor J..
j. Ward comes out with card in which
he says the trouble between Sam Jones
and himself was on account of personal
matters and not because the evangelist
criticized his official actions, The mayor
says:
"While Mr.. Jones was here he took it
upon himself to refer, in most insulting
language, to my private life and habits,
before my wife and children, hence my
attack upon him. AS for my Official
conduct, that is open to the scrutiny OF
right-minded men,"

AsBURY PARK. n. j., Feb. 6.-This
town is thoroughly aroused over the
tragic death of Miss Helen Potts. the
daughter of Railroad Contractor George
ii. Potts, who died at the Comstock
fashionable boarding school in New
York city, Sunday last. Few people
here believe the girl died from the eff
fects of the pills taken. which were pre-
scribed for her by Medical Student
CARLYLE w. Harris, and are anxious that
alb autopsy be held. 1t is reported
that the remains of Miss Potts
were not buried. although grave
had been prepared for them,
but that the body was placed IN vault.
This was done under instructions from
Coroner Schultz. of New York, who
had charge of the case. He is said to
have telegraphed Mr.. Potts not to bury
the body, and the latter accordingly
had it placed in vault on Wednesday
last. Mr.. Potts is almost distracted
with grief and refuses to believe that
his daughter is dead. He has ordered
that the casket be left open and has
placed guard of two men over it,
whose duty it is to hourly inspect the
remains, SO that if the girl should
awaken her life would be saved. De-
velopments from New York in the
matter are anXiously awaited.

FITz LEAVES CARROLL.

The Champion to Go on Spar
ring Tour Alone.
NEW ORLEANS. Feb. 6.-Bob Fitz-
simmons, the middIeweight champion
of the world, signed contract to-day to
travel under the management of Otto
c. Clato, who is backed by George Il.
Clarke, of Chicago. The contract is for
81, 800 and fifteen weeks. The offer was
first made to Carroll for the two pugi-
lists.
Carroll refused less than thousand
week and intended 10 leave OH WedneS-
day for Chicago to make arrangements
for tour on their own account. In the
meantime Fitzsimmons. who has been
gradually drifting away from Carroll
since the division of the spells, thinking
that Carroll got more than he should
have received, was approached and
told that the offer was for him
self alone and that Carroll was
not wanted. He was also upDraided
with the fact that he could not walk
across the street without Carrolfs per-
mission. He finally determined to
stand alone and signed the contract, al
though he did not tell Carroll person
ally that the partnership was off. Car
roll was chagrined, but said he did not
want to stand in the way of FitZsim-
mons success, and left for San Fran
cisco this afternoon. He will find a
man to whip FitZSimmOnS.

WOODRUFF's SHORTAGES.
The Arkansas Legislature Will
Investigate 1t.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Feb. 6.-The SEN
ate on Tuesday last passed resolution
instructing the joint committee ap-
pointed to Investigate State Treasurer
Woodruff's bonds to report at least five
days before the adjournment of the
legislature. This resolution came up in
the house to-day and Senator Rector
called Mr.. White, of Nevada, to the
chair, and offered a substitute for the
resolution which instructed the COM
mittee to begin their investigation with
Woodruff's first term and report AS soon
as possible whether there was any
shortage or misrepresentation of funds
during that term, then to take up the
next term and soon as possible report
on that, and so on through the five
terms Woodruff has been in office.
Mr.. Rector then made stirring
speech in support of his substitute.
In the course. of his remarks he
said he had always been a warm
supporter of Woodruff, and especially so
at the recent convention when Woodruff
was beaten for the nomination, but there
was shortage, as admitted by the
b0ndSmen and those who have access to
the treasurers office. His object in de-
manding the investigation to be prose-
cuted in this manner was that it might
be thorough, accurate and reliable and
that data might be furnished the at
torney general that an early date as
possible; as to enable him to take the
proper steps to recover the amount
of the shortage of his bondsmen.
He read extracts from letter
written by one of the bOndsmen to
other securities, admitting shortage of
500, 900. Mr.. Rector argued that If the
bondSmen by their examination had
discovered defalcation 70 this amount
it stood to reason that thorough exam
ination by the committee, which had
every facility for Investigating the
treasuror's books, they would probably
discover even greater shortage. His
substitute was adopted, all the Republi-
cans voting for it. This is the first adj
mission publicly or in any tangible way
of shortage. 1t is thought
the senate will adopt the sub
stitute and the public will
soon know the exact condition of the
treasury. The report that the treasurer
has suspended payment of members, per
diem, because of the shortage, is incor-
1ect, because the treasurer paid out all
the money which the auditors books
show ought to be in the general revenue
fund, and ulleSs the legislature author
lied the treasurer to borrow from some
of the other funds no payments will be
made until the various SheritfS begin to
make their settlements with the state.

Foolish Consistency.

Youths Companion.
Emerson tells US that there is no par
ticular virtue in consistency. How
stupid man must be, he says in effect,
who is not wiser to-day than yesterday,
and who does not accordingly have to
change some of his opinions.
"a man will never change his mind
who has no mind to change" says
Archbishop Whately, and Faraday ex-
presses the same idea, when he charges
us to remember that, "In knowledge
that man only is to be despised who is
not in state of transition"
There is a medium between what a
worthy old gentleman calls ''whiff1in'
about like weathercOck," and remain
ing rigidly in one rut of belief. Most of
us know instances of men who cannot
bring themselves to say anything which
would contradict what they uttered last
week or last year.
A certain Irishman once declared
that he had owned a horse that was fif-
teen feet high. A few days after he re,
ferred to the same animal as having
been fifteen hands high.
But" said listener. 'yOu gave ii
the other day as fifteen feet"
"Did /, thin?" said Patrick. swell,
I'll stick to it. He was fifteen feet
high"
