the new structures demanded in case Of

the new structures demanded in case Of
removal. But the towns in South
Florida do not stand on this claim in
their desire to become the political center
of the state. If St. Augustine can give
two millions for the possession of the
capital could not Tallahassee give two
hundred year to keep it p? Are not
many things now about the capital an
eyesore to the patriotic citizen who sees
visitors confronted with the decaying
relics of the past? Is it not to the interests
of Tallahassee to make the grounds attrac-
tive? Here is q park and promenade
for the use Of the city as sceU as the state.
What would four tasty fountains, an
abundant water supply and few iron
seats do for those dusty precincts? Look
at the tumble-down fences and noisome
huts in plain view;examine the sidewalks
and see how many bottomless pits through
out the city stand ready to engulf the I'M
wary, unguarded by bar or rail-!
The FLORIDIAN speaks as friend to
friends and is warranted in SO doing by its
present and it's past. Tallahassee owes
much to itself, and he only who is true to
himself will find himself square with the
world and a match tor his enemies.

Interesting Information Regarding

j. F. Richmond, In the Okahumpkian,
gives the following information in regard
to the discovery of kaolln in florida:
During the last year numerous discover
lee seem to indicate that Little Florida"
as it has been called. will henceforth be
able to supply our country with the best
varieties Of China clay. 10 the Palatlacah
valley, in the dim past, there stood vast
granite mountain or at least there must
have been chain of granite keys that have
mouIdered INFO vast beds of kaolin that
stretch along for nearly twenty miles.
Tht sc deposits present the usual varieties
of colOrs, are tree from iron, and have
stood the crucial fire test 10 all the expert
men,s thus far made. Much OF the clay ia
very white and fine and appears to be
adapted 10 the finest uses. One of the
purest rivers of the state winds it's graceful
way through the &c immense deposits, al.

The Ticket Seller Surprised Him

A man whose views on human nature
are trile cynical received an agreeable
shock the other evening In his haste to
catch train on the elevated road few
nights before he had forgotten to get his
change from the ticket seller. He had
laid down dollar bill, called for ten
tickets, received them, and dashed on to
catch his train. He had travelled some
distance up town before it occurred to
him that he had come away without his
fifty cents. An examination of his pock-
cts made him certain that he had not re-
ceived the money. The man was in a
hurry to get home, however. so did not
go down town again to see if he could
have his mistake rectifed Anyway"
he thought, ''it serves me right for my
carelessuess. The lesson is worth fifty
cents to me-"
Several evenings afterward he was
mounting the steps Of the same station
of the elevated road when he recollected
his loss. Going up to the ticket seller,
whose face he did not remember having
seen before, he asked, "Were you here
last Saturday night at 7:20 o'clock"
The man. stony stare on his face, 70
piled with another question, "WhyY'
II forgot to get my change then"
"Oh," the stare grew stonier. chow
much was it?'
II laid down a dollar for ten tickets
and didn't get back the fifty cents"
"Oh, yes, recollect that. Here you
are, sir" and the ticket seller, smiling,
showed out two quarters to the mans
great surprise. Since that time the Gym
les views have received another bad set
back, for a conductor on Broadway
car actually apologized to him for hav-
ing to give him five coppers in change
