/ gentleman "befo' th' wah." His imper-
sonation OF this character was simply
perfect. Ben Cotton, who as a negro
minstrel won national reputation, could
not help bringing down the house as
Cassius, the mayors servant. Cotton
has impersOnated the negro character
successfully for SO many years that it
would be impossible to consider HIM in
any otner role. AS Cassius he absolutely
shines.
Harry Lacy as John wartield invest
the character with o flavor of sterling
manhood and honesty of purpose, and a
herOism that in the hands of q less capa-
bls actor would SAVIOR of absurdity. In
his hands it is a natural character and
consistent throughout.
Malcolm Williams in the chaacter of

natural than assumed.

Special mention should be made of
Laura Booth as the heiress. Without
overdrawing her part she gave to it a wo-

absolutely refreshing.
The rest of the characters were com

whole in acting, stage setting and atten-
tion to details, the prodrction was most
satisfactory.

lightened, broad minded. liberal spirited
energetic man takes the lead, the grow

oping along the same grand lines. Thu
latter supposition is well illustrated b.
the history of the pleasant town Of De
Land. The growth Of such a place il
no mystery. 1t is the result of wei
chosen methods. directed to beneficen
ends. 1t will be useful to notice SOM
of these in order.
No one can today question the sub
stantial, we'll founded prosperity TO De
Land That this prosperity is cue in {
large degree to the well formed plans
the well directed energy and the tireles'
efforts of Mr.. H. A. DeLand no one
familiar with it's history. can doubt
Mr. DeLand's connection with the
foundation of the town, as we'll as his
plan for its development v hen he de-
cided to give to it his undivided time
and energies, form something unique in
the history of towns.
The foundation of DeLand was
largely accidental. Mr.. DeLand, who
in the spring of 1876 was travelling
through the State for pleasure and rec
reation, was induced to drive with a
friend from Enterprise north, across
the rolling pine lands, then an almost
unbroken forest, of which DeLand is
now the center. He soon became inter
ested in the orange industry IT, en- just be-
ginning to attract attention, but more es-
pecially did he become impressed with
the beauty and health giving qualities of
the high, dry rolling pine lands A few
months later he purchased homestead,
and planted grove, but the idea of
founding or developing town formed
no part of his plans for some time.
In the winter of '76 and ri few OF
his friends and relatives settled there
and entered upon the culture of groves
At about this time the few widely
separated pioneers were endeavorins
with Indifferent success to raise fund
for church school building. Mr.. De
Land offered to donate the land an,
contributed large part of the none.
on certain easy conditions, which wer
readily complied with. Upon tn
occasion of a social gathering at the lo|
cabin of Capt. Rich which still stand
a few steps from the business center O
DeLand, then the only house for mile
around, it was suggested that the littl
settlement have name. The name ode
Land" was proposed and so it became.
For the next few years the town en-
ioyed only moderate growth. Mr.

mess at the North, and to throw hi
whole time, energy and money into de
veloping the town which had been givel
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1895-02-27

| bought and sold as new settlers sought
locations, paying the market price of
land from time to time
The high moral and intellectual town
of DeLand is we'll known; the churches
Of DeLand and the John B. Stetson
University, are the pride of her citizens.
That the town is composed so largely of
progressive, cultured people, and pos
sesses a University of such prominence,
is due largely to the plan which Mr..
DeLand formed at the beginning, of
making the town religious and educat-
ional center. To this end the very ex-
tensive advertislng* which he did at his
individual expense for many years was
confined exclusively to the religious
papers and magazines of the country. In
1888, carrying out his early plaLs of
making DeLand an educational center,
Mr.. DeLand founded DeLand Academy,
setting aside plot of four acres and
erecting Sc, OOO- building, also paid per-
sonally nearly all the expenses of
teachers ETC., for first three year. The
Academy was soon enlarged and char
tered as DeLand University, Mr.. De-
Land donating the land and building
already erected, and endowing the iu
stitution with $4,000. DeLand Uni
versity has since become John B. Stet-
son University, in honor of that gener-
Gus man who in recent years has con-
trib ted 10 it so largely insuring it's con-
tinued prosperity. Mr.. DeLand's in
tion has never abated. Mr.. DeLand
paid about 81 ZOO on first dormitory,
building Stetson Hall. 1t was through
him that Mr.. Stetson made his first
investment in DeLand, and he obtained
from him his first subscription in aid of
the University, being large subscript
ion on Stetson Hall, thus enabling that
building to be completed without any
debt as all the building of Acad' my,
College and University have been. Like
wise from Mr.. O. T. Sampson, who has so
literally contributed to the University,
Mr.. DeLand secured the first subscrip-
ton, and from these two liberal patrons
the University has derived it's chief
financial support for the past few years.
Mr.. DeLand has paid out in all for
this and other schools and churches in
DeLand over thirty thousand dollars.
The City of DeLand and John B.
Stetson University no longer depend
upon the support and energies of any
one man, but their present remark
able success and prosperity are due in
no small degree to the business sapacity
and tireless efforts of the man whose
name the city bears.
While Mr.. DeLand's largest efforts
have been directed towards building
up DeLand and making it the educa-
tional center of the State, he has done
much towards the prosperity of the
whole State of Florida in making known
her resources to the people of the North
and West by means OF his large ac-
quaintance and judiclous and liberal
advertising.
We shall return to this subject in
future issues and give more in detail
some of the characteristic features of

*It is perhaps not inappropriate to
say that the expenditures for advertis-
ing by Mr.. DeLand in behalf of the
town, have been very unusual. Their
total cannot be less than $25, 900, reach
ing one year as high as $4,000. This was
more for the interest of the town than
for himself, and the good effects have
been realized in many ways.

chosen by the Union Pacific from

gap of only 155 miles, with no rivers

the terminus of the road which con-
meets with the Santa Fe near the
