1.-The public at large" said Mr. J. NJ
Uandley, representing Louis James, who
will be seen here shortly. has little or
no idea of the amount of labor, brain
work and Stury necessary to the giving
of a series of productions like those Of
Mr.. Louis James. The day when an ac-
tor could tour the country with pair of
tights and a tawbuck as sole equipment

critics, furniture and mechanical appli-
ances, company which includes in addi-
ton to actors, stage carpenters electri-

Nine. latin, a noted painter of historical
subjects, designed the costumes for the
Louis James company, while they were
executed by Maurice Hermann of New
York. The armorS were manufac tured
to order in Paris and the arms and ac-
coutrements came from London. The
scenery was all painted to order for Mr.
James. The scenes depicted are. as near

scenes of the plays. The scenes in Ven

from sketches by Charles Caryl Cole

Two Pounds of Eoney a Year.

A French naturalist with mathemat- ical turn of mind has been calculating tho work done by hive of bees. When the weather is favorable, worker" accord ing to his estimate, makes usually six to ten trips, visiting 40 to 80 flowers and col locting about ono grain of nectar. Even when, under extraordinarily good condi tioas, ho visits goo or 400 flowers tho amount collected would not exceed five or six grains, and the collection of a pound would occupy several years A hive con tains 20, 900 to 50, 900 bees of which only half are occupied in preparing honey, the rest caring for the young and thoir quar- ters In good day 1G, 900 to 20, bees can. in six to ten trips, visit 300,0 to 1,oO0, GOO flowers. For this it would be necessary that the locality should be favor ablo for honey making, and that the nec- tar secreting plants should grow near tho hive A hivo of 80, GOO bees can then, un- der good conditions, mako about two pounds of honey year.

As it stands now the line, There's not another foot like it in Paris, occasioned groan, ending with the audible remark, I should hope not It would be so easy to have pretty foot.

81 per Annum, in advance

farms and locate their cigar manufac-
turing establishment in that section
which promised the best results from the
stand point of it's production of fine types
of tobacco only. Now again Mr.. Duval
came forward and offered the courtesies
of his railroad and all the facilities at
his command, with the view Of aiding
this firm in the establishing it's opera
tions in the State after a thorough inves
tigation of each partic ular locality. 1t
was upon examination and investigation
found that the finest types of tobacco
in the past had been grown in Middle
Florida, particularly in the counties Of
Leon and Gadsden, and it was decided
to locate their establishment, farms and
factory in Gadsden county, with head
quarters in the town Of Quincy. TO
carry out this immense undertaking
successfully, it was decided to purchase
only the very best OF the old planta-
tions, and as far as possible to employ
native labor familiar tn the soils and
climate. Eleven large plantations were
purchased; these have been added to
from time to time, until to-day oyer
TWENTY THOUSAND ACRES
are owned bysthis firm. In order to take
advantage of any slight difference in
soils that might exist in the different To-
calities, eight plantations were located
at different points, each equipped as a
separate and distinct farm. The plan
tations located are named as follows
Santa Maria, eleven miles east of Quincy,
embracing about Is, COO acres; LaVioleta
plantation, seven miles east Of Quincy,
com prising about $500 acres; Santa
Clara, north and south, running two
miles east and about two and one-half
miles south OF Quincy and comprising
about $500 acres; Alsace plantation, ad
joining the town Of Quincy on the north
and east, and comprising about 1900
acres; LaGorna plantation, five miles
southwest Of Quincy, comprising 1000
acres; LaCamella plantation, eight miles
northeast Of Quincy, comprising about
2,4OO acres; LaColada plantation, ten
miles northeast of Quincy, comprising
about 500 acres.
In addition to the above several plan
tations have been purchased and leased
out with view of bringing them under
cultivation. 1t was thought best to To-
cate the plantations in different sections
of the county, in order to get the best
possible climatic conditions, as it fre
quently happens in Florida that one To-
cality may have every requisite climatic
requirement, such as regular and uni
form rainfull and season, while adjacent
sections may suffer, though this is not
the rule, yet there were several different
types of soil, all good tobacco lands
which it was deemed wise to cultivate.
Dwellings for superintendents ard en-
ployes were now erected in addition to
