TRIBUNE LOCAL OBSERVATIONS
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1893-03-22
AN UNFORTUNATE COINCIDENCE
Bankruptcy of the Principal Lineal De-
scendant OF Christopher Columbus.

Bankruptcy of the Principal Lineal De-
scerdant of Christopher Columbus.
By strange and unfortunate coinci-
dence the quadri-centennial anniversary
of the discovery of America by Column
bus was signalized by the declaration
as bankrupt of his principal hneal de-
scendant, Don Christovan Colomb, duke
of Veragua, and, according to the New
York Recorder, a couple of days after
with the dedication of the worlds fair
the furniture, the ancestral portraits,
and all the valuable relics contained in
the dukes palace at Madrid were sold
by order of the sheriff in behalf of the
dukes creditors at public auction.
The dukes ruin is due not so much to
personal extravaganza as to unfortunate
speculation and investment. With very
pronounced tastes for farming, he has
devoted enormous sums to the develop
nent of agriculture in Spain without,
however, reaping any financial results.
Some three or four months ago, at
the time of the financial crisis, his
difficulties reached a climax, and he
was compelled to announce to his
creditors his insolvency. Hoping that
he would be able to effect some arrange
ment, they deferred for a time the
winding up of his affairs, but as he has
been unable to do anything in the di-
rection of a compromise, they lost pa
tience and proceeded to extremities.
The duke, who is a man of fifty years
of age, and who held the rank Of
minister Of the navy in the liberal
cabinet of Senior Sagasta, has now re-
tired to little village some fifty miles
distant from Madrid, where he is living
in the very humblest circumstances. In
view of all this venture to doubt as to
the likelihood of his awaiting himself of
the invitation rendered him by the
United States government to take part
in the great Columbian ceremonies at
Chicago next year
Possibly it may occur to some patri-
otto readers of this column that the
achievements of the great discoverer of
this country might most appropriately
be commemorated by setting his de-
scendant once more upon his legs,
financially speaking.

CANADA'S EXHIBIT.
A Mineral Display Which Will Be a
Surprise.

Canada is preparing a surprise for
American competitors in some lines of
exhibition. The fisheries, agricultural
and live stock contributions from the
dominion are to be significant, both in
magnitude and quality. Another great
display from across the border will
come to Chief Skiff of the mining ex-
hibits department. Ontario has a great
neurological display about ready for
shipment. Mr.. David Boyle has charge
of it and has outlined it's principal
features. Some of the best specimens
are gold ores of great value, some of
the contributions by individual mines
reaching half a ton in weight. The Bel
mont and Crescent mines are especially
we'll represented. Nickel ore will be
.arrayed on scale never before at
tempted. One specimen alone weighs
seven tons, and one piece of matte
nickel, after rough refining, weighs
five tons. The Sudbury district, with
one of the richest nickel deposits in the
world. will have special exhibit pre-
pared by r. Fl. Aim.
Perhaps the most curious, because I'M
usual, will be the magnificent specimens
of mica. In the Ontario collection is a
crystal, eighteen by twenty inches and
nine inches thick, weighing four hun
dred,pounds. Another bit, foot thick,
weighs one hundred and twenty
pounds. Graphite is also to be
shown from Perth, where it is claimed
the largest deposit in the world is
found. Marble, granite, phosphate of
lime, tale, sulphate of baryta, asbestus,
all are comprised in the collection.
photographic stone of unusual value is
also to be shown. The rarer specimens,
exhibited in cases, include topaz, anne
thysts, garnets, agates and zircons. AL
together two thousand square feet in
the mines building is set aside for the
Ontario section of the Canadian exhibit

BUTLER AND THE CLERGY
Sensation Created by the Cover
nor's Fast Day Proclamation.
How the Whole State OF Massachusetts
Was COnvuIsed by Neat Little
Trick of the Chief Ex-
ecutlvo.

II see old Ben Buffers gone ct last"
said Maj, Edward Downing, of Boston,
to a ST. Louis Globe-Democrat man.
LET me tell you story on the old
man that has never been printed; at
least, if It has ], never have heard of it.
You know onvee5o Of our greatest holidays
in Massachusetts is Fast day, and it
comes along in April. 1t is the duty of
the governor to issue proclamation
setting the day and exhorting the citi-
zens of the state to lay aside all their
earthly pursuits and devote the day to
fasting and prayer. Well, when Ben
was governor he had mighty herd row
to hoe. There were all sorts of editors
in the state who laid for him with a
scalping-knife up their sleeves night and
day, and no opportunity to make life a
nightmare to him was ever overlooked
The same feeling was INDUCED in by
men of high standing in other profess
sions, too, clergymen among the rest.
Well, when old Ben's proclamation
came out it was beauty. wound up
with special exhortation to the clergy
to the effect that they devote their time
to the welfare of the spiritual man and
refrain from indulging their curiOsities
in the family affairs of the men and
women of their congregations, and look
to it that in their teachings their own
souls were free from faint. That proc
lamation created sensation. 1t shook
the staid old state of Massachusetts,
from end to end. The papers every
where denounced the governor as
impertinent, sacrilegious, indicate,
coarse, brutal and profane. They az
cused him of being everything that was
disagreeable; no official in the history of
the world had ever dared to assail the
clergy in the wanton manner that Gov.
Butler had. On the following Sunday
the ministers had their fling at the old
war horse, and right merrily did they
roast him. The old man kept perfectly
quiet and good natured through it all,
never losing his temper or vouchsafng
anything in the shape Of an explana-
ton. After everybody had had their
say, and whole lot was said, too, the
old man came out with statement
and the copy to show it, too
that inasmuch as he was not expert
enCGQ In SuCn mdJCorS ne naQ COplcO
word for word, the proclamation Of one
of the first governors OF the common
wealth, I've forgotten which one, but
in such high esteem was he held that he
was almost sainted. Butler showed to
the satisfaction of everybody that the
only change he had made in the orig
inal document was to fix the date and
substitute his own name for that of the
original. That ticlxled the old man
probably as much as anything in his
life, but there was an awfully crestfallen
lot of editors and clergymen in the old
Bay state for long time after that.
The old man had caught them fairly
and there was no way for them to get
out of it.

A Youngsters Fears of Bears.

To draw upon my own recollections, my
childhood was haunted by bears. They
were not bears out of books. so far as l can
remember, but childish formula for the
dark unknown which is apt to brighten
every little stranger who comes alone into
this great world of ours. Many an hour
have lain awake in an ecstasy of trem-
bling lest the sonorous breathing of the
sister asleep at my side should be loud
enough to rouse the dire beasts from their
lurking places.
Yet these hours did not "embitter my in
fancy" nor do they now in retrospect cause
me poignant grief. What does shame me
is the remembrance of other hours of that
same period when l was trying to adjust
my emotions and actions to an agreement
with those of the particular heroine out of
fiction who happened to be my nearest &C
quaintance at the time.-Atlantic Monthly.

How Loosha Cured Him.

The elderly married porter who looks
after Middleclass flats has never repeated
the daring act of unlawful OSCILLATION
which was visited with such summary
retribution by our dragon of domestic vir-
tue 1t happened, if l remember, when
the miniature lift dedicated to the trades
mems parcels and coal scuttles went
wrong-stuck four feet below the level of
our landing and refused to bulge. So,
with the intention of ascertaining the ma
ture and extent of the local complication,
Jellams got into it, L0osha having under
taken to Tighten his labors with converse
ton and composite candle Alas for the
frailty of mankind!
Then it was that, undeterred by the fear
of scalding grease or boiling Indignation,
our porter attempted to wrest kiss from
the lips that were near. And as the indig-
nant Loosha thumped him On the head
with the candlestick the temporary me-
chanical obstruction yielded to the impulse
of outraged virtue, and the porter, with
one wild cry, shot swiftly downward and
disappeared. He arrived ultimately in the
coal cellar to the relief of our handmade,
who had had awful visions of his sticking
in the shaft and suffocating slowly, with
blood curdling groans, while masons were
pulling down the building to get at him.

Carefulness AbOut Water.

1t is difficult to make everybody careful
in regard to the use of drinking water, but
comparatively easy to make the principles
of hygiene generally known Some per-
sons dislike pure water because it is insipid.
Others find it inconvenient to boil the
water they use, and troublesome or ridicu-
lous to employ a filter. In some industries
impure water is preferred, as in that of the
baker-the bacteria in the water uniting
with those in the yeast and producing rap
idly the desired lightness. Does any one
in America ever trouble himself about the
quality of water used in making his bread,
or of that in the so called mineral waters
he drinks, or is he strenuous in regard to
the quality of the ice furnished him, which
even when comparatively clear often
abounds in microbes? Bad water is often
the cause of epidemics of typhoid fever

Explosive Force of Lightning.

The explosive power is one OF the fore
most qualities exhibited by the electrical
discharge. When the fluid happens to
meet with some obstruction in its course it
frequently evinces its dissatisfaction by
shattering the nonconducting object, exer-
cising a radiatinS force like a bombshell
and bursting substances asunder as if they
had been charged with gunpowder. Many
years ago the southwest pinnacle of the
church of Breog, in Cornwall, was demol-
ished by stroke of lightning, and one
stone weighing three hundredweight was
hurled southwark over the roof to the dis
lance of sixty yards, while second was
sent to the north for the space of 400 yards
and third was projected in a southwest
