WAITS FROM wRLAKA.
The First Frosts OF the season-The
Orange Crop.

The First Frosts Of the Season-The
Orange Crop.
WELAKA, FLA, Nov. 15.-The first frosts
of the season occurred on last Friday and
Saturday. 1t was not severe enough to hurt
anything except potato vines. But few
oranges are being shipped from here yet
Many are going from other parts through
out this section. Crops generally have been
bought up at 81 % to 81 so per box cash on
the tree. They are better colored up
and much sweeter than they generally are
at this time of the year. There is no panic
about shipping; in fact, people are
set to get the very best prices,
and are as cool as before
the democratic sweep on Nov. 8. Many re.
puDlicans would not vote because there were
no Harrison electors in the field. People
will now have more confidence IN investing
money in the south. During the four years
Of Clcvslands administration times were
much better with us than since. Those who
went north the past summer are returning,
and glad to get back to our sunny cline;
boats are bringing good freights and the
usual winter activity is beginning to show
itself

JUDGE GOBER ON TRIAL.
OBJECTION MADE TO ONE OF TEE
COMMITTEE.

The Point Made That Senator McAfee
has Already Expressed an Opinion
in the Case and That His Relations
With the Judge Are Against I'm
partiality.
ATLANTA, GA, Nov. 15-The taking OF
evidence in the Gober investigation was
continued to-day by the legislative COM
mittee. The investigation may be con
cuded tomorrow. Three members from
the Senate, Messrs. Wooten. Persons and
! McAfee, and five from the House, Messrs.
| Howard, Escon, Hill, Battle and Rankin,
compose the investigating committee.
At the first meeting last night an effort
was made TO have Senator McAfee removed
| from the committee by Messrs. Glenn and
Madd OK, who brought the charges against
Judge Gober, on the ground that Mr.. Nc
| Afee had, previous to the sitting of the COM
mittee, practically expressed unbelief in
Judge Gober's culpability. 1t was also
brought out that Mr.. McAfee is the father
in-lew Of the solicitor in Judge Gobers cir
cult, aud that he also has case of libel
pending before that tribunal to be decided
by Judge Gober. The committee, however.
refused to ask Mr. McAfee to retire, and he
did not volunteer to resign, which gives
rise to a good deal of talk. Senator
Nc fee's son-in-law is also one Of Judge
Gober's counsel before the investigating
committee, and was attorney in the orlg-
nal case out of which the present trouble
grows.
w. D. Ellis, R. L. Berner and George G.
Brown are the lawyers representing Judge
Gober before the committee.
THE CHARGE AGAINST THE JUDGE.
The specific charge against Judge Gober
is altering a motion for new trial In an
arson case, where the defendant had been
sent to the penitentiary by removing four
pages, having the same rewritten with
portions, dama2ing to MS position III refus-
ing new trial, omitted and placed in the
record again.
Upon the stand before the investigating
committee Judge Cob 4r made his response
to the subpRna requiring him to produce
certain papers relating to the case. He
swore hat none Of the papers demanded
were in his possession, power or control.
Other court officers testified in favor of the
judge and Mr. Maddox, one of the parties
who lodged the charges, reviewed the de-
tails of the charges in his testimony, stat
ing that Judge Gober had eliminated
three distinct grounds for a new trial in
that part of the record which be altered. Ii
was also brought out that there was bad
personal feeling between Judge Gober and
Messrs. Glenn and Maddox. Judge Gober's
lawyers endeavored to make the question
OF MIR. Glenn's sobriety at the time of the
trial Of the original case point in the in
vest1gation, and in return Mr.. Maddox, on
the stand, assailed the dignity of the judge
most vigorously, saying that he ran about
over the court room calling the sheriff and
treated attorneys insultingly.

Shortly before midnight, on Sept %, God, in
his wisdom, called our devoted and well-loved

the slightest duty or thinking the greatest labor
too much.
AS writer Mr.. BOGARTs style was polished,
concise ana accurate. An article giving a de-
scrption of the ceremonies attending the con-
secreUion of Bishop Beckwith was deemed so
admirable that the vestry ordered it spread
upon the records OF the church
During the many years OF his official connec-
ton with st. Johns church his gentle nature
endeared him to the congre CATION aud to his
associates in the vestry. The dignfed and ever
present courtesy of his demesnor-the outcome
of pure thoughtfulness for others springing
| from pure, quiet and loving heart-a heart
loving all mankind, made apparent the
noble unseldshness of his nature while his at
tention to the needs OF the church proved his
worth as an officer. Therefore, be it

The Suit to Set 1t side to be Heard on
Nov. II.
INpIANAPoLIs, Nov. 15.-The suit TO set
aside the legislative apportionment will be
heard by the supreme court on Nov. II.
Morgan Chandler, through his attorney
ex-Judge Niblack, has filed in the supreme
court his brief in the suit. Mr.. Niblack de-
MES that there is a parallelism between the
Indiana and Michigan cases, and says that
the constitutional provisions in Wisconsin,
Michigan and New York governing the APP
portionment OF members of the legislature
are different from those in this state. The
precedents in the states named cannot there
fore be cited for Indiana. Anything like
actual equality of the districts, where the
integrity of the counties must be pre-
served, is out Of the question. Mr.. Niblack
concludes that if greater restrictions are to
be placed upon the making Of legislative
districts it must be done through amend
ments TO the constitution.
