A Tale Of Seven Years AGO.

1t was then Col. Ed Spencer was
chief ruler of the Brick City aud the
Hon. Hugh E. Miller was its attorney
general, and for which services the
city failing to pay him, he had an ex-
ecutlon issued, but the city being
poorer then than now, the execution
was never satisfied. Deputy Nugent,
Monday while rummaging around the
pigeon holes in the sheriff's office,
came across the old execution papers,
which were alike forgotten by Mr..
Eugh Miller and the city. On inspec-
ton he saw their value and turned
them over to Mr.. Miller, who on in
spection returned them back to Mr..
Nugent to rye the same. He levied
upon three fine mules belonging to the
city and every ancient pair of hand
cuffs. August 5, 1887, the amount of
the order was $167.39. Now it has ac-
cumplated with interest until it has
grown to $265.05. 1t was lucky find
for the Hon. Hugh E. Miller.

Do not Glut the Orange Market.
WESTERLY, r. l., May 2slh, 1894.


TO the Editor of the Banner.
BY my Florida papers / have hecn
kept we'll informed of the work which
has been going on to organize the fruit
and vegetable growers of that state,
and now / want to say a word in de-
Tense of what a pears to me to be the
key note to the whole situation, and
that is, restriction of shipments. A.
the Orlando convention a speak J
made use of words as follows: ut 4
better to market 600 boxes at profit
than 5000 at loss" We all ought to
remember that. If we are in danger
of forgetting it, let us write it out al
paste it up somewhere in our packing
houses. The association will no doubI
be able to make savings for its MEM
bers which will aggregate 25 per cent.
or more per box, but this is insigniii-
cant in comparison with the great
gain to be made if we will stop glut-
ting the markets. The plan for the re-
StIiCtiUH VI SulpAlSuto -, III NY jug
ment, good, and it is devoutly to be
hoped that the growers will realize the
Importance of this point and keep To-
gether in regulating the supply to the
demand.
For the past three years / have
marketed, in sort of retail way, the
fruit from five acre grove, and / as
sert that it is not an exaggeration to
say that the New England markets
have, during this time, been over
loaded with oranges for more than
half the marketing season.
BY all means, growers, let us hold
back the fruit in Florida and keep the
markets in a strong, healthy condi:
ton. 1t is perfectly clear when a
market has dumped upon it twice us
much fruit as it can possibly take,
prices must fall. If we will all unite
in holding back our fruit we can sell
every box we produce at good prices.
Respectfully,
S. II. CLAwsoN.

DECORATION DAY.
Flowers for the Blue and the Gray.

Flowers for the Blue and the Gray.
Wednesday being Memorial day
proper, the members of the G. A. r.
Post of Ocala, commanded by Major
E. M Green, marched from their hall
to the cemetery, where Major Green
read the beautiful memorial service of
the order, and Chaplain Rafenburger
voiced the touching prayer from the
ritual, when the post passed around to
the various graves of both the f, deral
and Confederate dead, and strewed
them with flowers.
This touching tribute of respect hav-
ing been performed, those in attend
ance gathered under the grateful
shade of the trees and Captain John
III. Welsh was introduced as the
orator of the day, who PRONOUNCED a
tribute to the dead, which was full of
patriotism and warm words for the
valor and heroism for the soldiers of
both armies.
Like every thing that comes from
the gallant captains head and heart,
it was not only appropriate, but emf
nently .befitting the day and occasion.

made few remarks, when Col. John
M. Martin, Confederate veteran who
was present, was asked to speak and
made most eloquent and patriotic
talF, brim full of fraternal and loving
kindness, which touched all hearts
and moistened many eyes.
Owing to a severe hoarseness Gen.
]. j. Dickinson, who was called on,
excused himself.
Major Green said he was glad to see
a delegation of Confederate veterans
present and participate in the decora-
ton of the graves of the dead soldiers
of both armies, and hoped this unity
on the part of the blue and the gray
! would continue until in time by the
grace of God Memorial day would not
refer to the g. A. r exclusively, but
that the occasion would evidence
the fact that its observance meant the
decoration of the graves of the soldiers
of the Republic, regardless of past diff
ferences and the sides they fought on.
Rev. DR.. Reayes pronounced the
benediction.

Who Is Responsible ?

Ever since the city granted fran
chise to the Street Railway company
and they planted their tracks within
our corporate limits, the question hiss
come up and been discussed in gem
eral way, who was responsible in case
the street between the rails became so
worn that it caused damage to vehi-
cles? The city said it would rest on
the owners of the city street railway,
while they reported you are another,
and it is the city's duty to keep this
portion of the street in repair. So the
matter has run along for several years,
in which time much damage has been
sustained by the owners of vehicles,
but they have been compelled to pay
their own bills for losses sustained.
The Hon. r. A. Burford had an ex-
perience last week which wrecked one
wheel of his carriage on account of the
poor condition of the track between
the rails of the Oeala street railway,
and he proposes to ascertain who is
responsible for this condition ofaffairs
and loss attending it. Mr.. Burfs,rd is
to be commended for ascertlinlng this
fact for the people of Oeala.

A Big Lemon Grove.

M + GiHett, manager of the Man
atee Lemon company and secretary
OF the Florida and Vegetable Growers
association, left last night for his
home in Weirsdale.
Mr.. Gillett returned yesterday from
Manatee, where he conducted the
purchase of 100 acres more land for
the Manatee Lemon company, which
they will set out in lemons. They
have 10000 trees now and will incraese
their grove to 81, 900 trees this season.
Mr.. Gillett estimates that the ou tput
of the company's lemon gro,e will be
100000 boxes in three years from now;
If his hopes are realized this will be
a wonderful re,ord as the grove has
been planted only about year, but
the trees are all budded on old stock
and are being pushed as fast as possi-
BILE. Some idea of the magnitude of
their expected returns can be gained
when it is known that the entire out
put of oranges from the Manatee Sec
ton is now not quite 100000 boxes a
year.-Tampa Times.
