A New and Hardy Orange.

The Orlando correspondent of the Jack
sonville Citizen writes as follows: cit
has been suggested that their unprece-
denied cold weather of the past winter
would lead to the discovery of a hardy
orange which would have pulled through
ii degree of cold with little or no injury
which was sufficient to Kill other trees
nearly or quite to the ground. 1t is now
claimed that this is an accomplished
fact, and that Orlando has that Identical
orange. On little grove just on the
eastern outskirts of Town are several
small sized budded trees which are put
ting out new leaves even on the mallest
twigs. These trees lost their foliage but
beyond that they seem to have sus tanned
no injury. AS yet no one knows what
variety the trees are, as the man who
planted them left here few years ago,
and they have borne no fruit since the
present owner S been in poss. sson of
the place. The tr' es will receive ezra
Care henceforth. and the first fruit will
be watched with special interest to as
certain it's good points. If the fruit
proves first class, these trees will be
worth small fortune. The face that
they are budded, and still come out bet
ter than seedlings in adjoining rows in
the sa" grove. is the surprising part Of
it, as the buds as rule have been hurt
far worse than the seedlings"

Pine Land for Sugar Cane.

In the report Of Commissioner Womb
we'll we find the following:
Investigations extending over the
greater portions of the present year, with
q view to ascertaining with some degree
of certainty the relative adaptability of
the soils OF Florida TO sugar culture, as
compared with lands of other sections of
the South, have been made, and the fact
satisfactorily demonstrated that the
juice from sugar cane grown upon the
sandy soils of this State contains a
higher percentage of saccharine matter
and a proportionate lesser amount of
glucose than that grown upon the lands
of any other state in the cane producing
region. The yield per acre and The cost
of production are both very largely in
favor of our State The same remarks
apply with equal force as to investiga-
ton and results in the case of ramie
production.

Puffy Oranges.

William McFadden, OF Placentia one
of the most successful orange growers of
Orange county, says that puffiness in or
anges may be entirely prevented by keep
ing up the steady growth of the tree dur
ing the summer. He attributes puffiness
in the fruit to checked growth from
want of moisture. Some growers hold
that irrigation is not necessary until the
leaves show an inclination to curl Mr..
McFadden says that the curl of the leaf
is an indication of checked growth.

Kind of Settlers Needed.

What Florida needs is not investors
but home makers. There are plenty
such people, the bone and sinew of
America, that are longing for just such
homes as they could make here. If they
only knew how easily they can provide
food here, they would no longer flock to
the cities in search of work or in frozen
regions trying to wrench from the soil a
subsistence for their families.
1t is not the owner of many acres even
if he occupies his land that is the best
settler; but the small land owner. Forty
acres in Florida is enough. In some
localities and under many conditions
ten is enough and more a detriment.
The problem of feeding the masses would
be forever solved if no man was allowed
more than ten acres to farm, and farmed
that well and intelligently. There is no
state where the little farm we'll titled can
be made more profitable than in Florida
and probably none where the conditions
seem to require small farms so emphat-
ically. AS every Floridian knows, the
most money can be made where the best
system of fertilization is used. In order
that the proper amountof fertilizers may
be applied to each acre, the acreage
must be small, unless the owner has
money to spend recklessly.
Outside of our orange kings the truck
farmer or market gardener makes most
money out of Florida land. If this land
is not hammock be must supply fertlli-
GERS at the rate of five or ten tons per
acre, and the land must be judiciously
handled by rotating the crop to give
best results The best and most thor
ough working of the soil must be fol-
lowed, and thus it will be apparent that
the small farm can be made much more
profitable than the large one, where less
manure and labor are expended.
1t is then the man of small means who
is willing to work who is most likely to
find in Florida the home for which he is
seeking. Lands are low in price, or still
to be had as homeSte leads. The climate
all one could wish and the soil sufficiently
productive when properly fertilized.-

This checked growth is first felt by the
fruit and drain of it's juices at once
takes place, leaving vacuum between
the meat and rind. When growth is re-
stored by irrigation, the growth first be-
gins in the rind and the vacuum is in
creased and puffy oranges is the result.
Mr.. McFadden has arrived at this con-
clusion after years of observation in his
own groves and those of his neighbors,
and has demonstrated it's correctness ty
experiments. When the trees are kept
in steady growth throughout the year by
frequent irrigation and cultivation there
will be very few puffy oranges; if growth
is retarted, as shown by curled leaves.
then puffy fruit will be the rule. Mr..
McFadden says that when water is
scarce or the runs far apart, extra Guilt
yation can be made to do wonders in the
way of keeping trees in growth Or

ESTATE OF JOHN LEVINSON.
Supreme Court Petitioned That III. W
Philbrook Be Reinstated.

In1lDfOOk De heluSCaCeQ.
In the Supreme Court, regarding the
estate of John Levinson, Mrs. Fanny
Levinson has applied for a hearing in
bank. The petition to the Chief Justice
and the Associate Justices reviews the
former litigation, alleging that she was
betrayed by her lawyers.
The petitioner says: ST am an aged and
feeble widow, much older than the oldest
Judge of this honorable court. have no
other means OF support than such as was
left me. by my only son, the decedent
named"
She holds that she should have had an
income of $1,000 a month from his estate
and says: "After a year and nine months
by the efforts of Horace w. Philbrook, nv
attorney and friend, obtained $4,000 from
my sons estate, and although may son has
been dead for more than FIVE years. that is
all | have ever received"
Mrs. Levinsen desires that her attorney.
Horace w. Phllbrook, shall be reinstated.
In her petition she sets forth that the dis
barment has necessarily bound the Jus-
tices OF the Supreme Court to decide
against her. She explains:
BY the disbarment OF nv attorney have
oeen deprived OF the right TO have this cause

After the cruel punishment visited upon NV

after the reasons assigned therefor, it would be
absurd for me TO seek any other Competent ad-
voeate. NO competent attorney can. with
safety 70 himself or with due regard to the
claims of those dependent upon him, argue NV
cause In this court as it should be argued
therefore respectfully ask not only that a
hearing In bank be ordered, but that on such
hearing Horace W. Philbrook Esq. be allowed
to present my cause as my attorney.

.'The rate of taxation has nothing to do
with it," remarked Equalizer Colgan.
s'Don't you know that Mrs. Joseph, who

Morrison explained that the money was

Mr.. Berkey explained that he had been in

the assessment of next year would make a

HER LOVE IN RAGS.
Romantic End of an Attach
ment Formed in Parkway
Denmark.
Imogena johnson Inherited a For
tune and Came to America
to Wed.

PERTH AMBOY, n. j., Aug. 25. -
Thomas Iverson and Imogena Johnson
were lovers in Denmark five years ago.
The girls father was wealthy. Thomas
was poor. Her parents objected to the
young mans suit, and forbade the lovers
meeting.
Iverson came to America, found his way
to Perth Amboy and got work. He wrote
regularly to the girl until year ago; then
he lost his situation. and was unable to
get another. He slept in stables the greater
part of last winter, did odd jobs when he
could find them, but often had to beg for
something to eat. He felt his condition
keenly, and in his humiliation stopped
writing to the girl and his friends at home,
hoping to conceal his misfortunes from
Imogena.
Mrs. Niels Jacobsen Orsoe, wife of cigar
maker, who had been Imogena's friend in
Denmark, received letter from the girl
two months ago making inquiries about
Iverson. She mentioned in her letter that
her parents were dead, and that she, the
only child, had inherited the entire estate.
Mrs. Orsoe answered the letter and told OF
lyerson's misfortunes.
Miss Johnson at once started for Amer
lea. She brought with her about $14, 900,
and went Immediately to see Mrs. Orsoe.
After the greeting the young woman re-
quested that Iverson be sent for. He was
easily found, and when he saw his sweet
heart he swooned. He had not been told
Of her letter, and did not know of the
death of her parents, or that she had in
herited the property His establishment at
seeing her in Perth Amboy had overcome
him. There were explanations, and Iver-
son told why he had not written.
His clothing was in rags. Imogena took
him to clothing-store and purchased him
an entire outfit. Then she gave him $3.50.
Preparations were at once made for a we'd
ding. Iverson and Miss Johnson went to
Pastor Ole jacobson of St.Stephen's Evan
gelical Danish Church last Thursday even

SAN BERNARD|NO MINES,
Strikes of Paying Gold Ore
Made in a Dozen
Sections.
Claims That Had Long Been Aban-
doned Now Returning Rich
Yields.

SAN BERNARDINO, CAL, Aug. 26.-
"Within two years San Berrardino will
become one of the greatest gold-producing
counties in the United States" were the
words of an old miner who hes been at the
business since the exciting days of 40.
His statement is based on the fact that
from all points of the county new and rich
discoveries are being made. Where once
the miners dug into the earth for silver, he
now finds gold ore in abundance.
Even Pinocata, that has SO long re-
manned dormant, is now to the front with
another boom of much greater magnitude
than before. Colonel J. S. Egan, who was
in the city yesterday, said to CALL cor
pendent:
"We are coming to the front at Pinocata
especially in the big claims-Golden
Chariot, Santa Rosa and Good Hope. Over
eighty men are being worked, and ten
and twenty stamp mill are kept going
day and night. 1t is the intention to put
up another ten-stamp mill on the Santa
Rosa just as soon as it arrives from the
East"
The ore in these mines is of very high
grade and of large volume.
The parties who are working on Mesa
Dolores mine, near the McHaney Desert
a dry washer to be forwarded at once.
Work has been pushed in the shaft to a
depth of about twenty feet, with the result
of finding an abundance of SIS and $40 rock,
with the indications Frightening as the
shaft goes downward.
While on their trip in the Chucawalla
mesa and Hathaway Mountains, Joseph
Brown, John Simons and Jap Corbett
made three or four very rich finds running
well up into the hundreds, and they are
now in communication with o. G. Lane,
the well-known mining man, and big sale
is looked for within a fortnight.
The Holcomb Valley Mining Company
is doing big work, as 800 tons of dirt is
handled every day and about forty men
are employed. Some of these mines have
not been worked since 1860 end 1865. An
English company has the matter in hand
and will spend considerable in improve
ments to develop the thousands that are
known to be in these mines.

DE LAvEAGA'S REQUEST.
Left to the City the Magnificent
Heights Bearing His
Name.
FOR AN EARLY DISTRIBUTION
Executors of the Estate Anxious to
Carry Out the Wishes of the
Decedent.

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, Aug. 26.-About a
mile from this city lies well-known tract
of land of 56S acres, known as De Laveaga
Heights. 1t is along the Blackburn drive,
with an extensive frontage and overlooks
the beautiful bay of Monterey. When the
late owner, ]. Vide Layeaga, died he be-
queathed all of this land to the city and
county of Santa Cruz to be used as a pub
lie park, excepting fifty acres which was to
be set aside to be used for hospital.
While Mayor Effey was in San Fran
cisco last week he spent some time in
examining into the present status of the
bequest, and found out that the executors
and attorney of the estate have decided to
place no obstacle in the way of the dis
tribution of the bequest to Santa Cruz, but
on the contrary will lend their aid in
bringing the matter to an early adjust
ment.
The final distribution of the whole De
Laveaca estate is as yet in the indefinite
future, but the Mayor was anxions to bring
about partial distribu ton if possible, so
that Santa Cruz may soon begin to enjoy
the benefits of Senior de Laveaga's gene
rosity. Accordingly City Attorney Cassin
has put IN an application to the Probate
Court of San Francisco for partial distri-
button which shall include the property in
question.
As the attorney and executors, one OF
whom is the brother of Jose de Laveaga,
the testator, are willing to forward this in
every way, it is possible that before the
end of another month beautiful De Layeaga
Heights will have become the property of
the people of Santa Cruz through an order
issued from the Probate Court. Immedi-
ately upon the settlement of the estate it
is expected that the grounds in which the
late owner took so much pride will be laid
out by some competent artist and the
work of adapting them to the purposes of
public park will be commenced.
The magnificent gift is appreciate by
the people of Santa Cruz and De Laveaga
Heights will always be maintained as a
monument to the giver.

Superintendent Vining Holds
Out but Small Relief to
Residents.
The Committee Not Pleased With
the Result of the TWO Con-
ferences.

Messrs. F. w. NJ. LANCE, W. H. Jones,
D. J.. Westover, Eugene M. Fritz and r.
T. Harding called at Mr.. Winnings Office,
according to appointment, at II o'clock
yesterday morning. This same committee
waited on the manager of the Market
street Railroad last Friday, in the matter
of the abandoned streetcar service on Carl,
Waller, Cole and other streets south of the
park. At that time Mr.. Vlning expressed
his willingness to do anything within the
bounds OF reason, provided of course 1t
met the appreciation of Mr.. Huntington,
and in order to be absolutely certain on
this score he would ask the committee to
call again Monday.
The superintendent did loosen the reins
a little, however, by offering a half
hour service from 6 to 10 A. NJ. and from 5
to II P. NJ. The majority of the committee
were not disposed at that time to accept
the compromise. and they are still less in
clined since the meeting of Yesterday.
II find" said Mr.. Vining. s'thst it will
be impossible for US to consider the matter
of fteen-minute schedule before spring.
Then, gentlemen, when business is light
in all departments we will find plenty of
time to canvass your complaint, and If we
can see our way clear to run such SER
vice, or even faster one, we will gladly do
it. You can easily understand, gentlemen,
that the Market-street Company are ready
w CAbCLQ CfSIs III tHCll pOhCis ~ lOIiS
as they can do it proftably-I mean, of
course, without actual loss to themselves.
'It's just like this, gentlemen: A man
starts store, and, after time, finds it
does not pay. The man naturally retires
from business and pockets his loss without
a murmur. That is just what we have
done. The service out there did not pay,
and we stopped the cars.
1.-THE company has decided, however, to
put a half-hour service on the Carl-street
line, which is the best we can do until
spring. This service will begin Wednes-
day, and continue until such time as it
will pay us to return to the old schedule"
With this the committee had to be salts
fed, at least for the present. Those living
near the end of the abandoned car line
were pleased to get even this small conces-
sion from the Market-street company,
though they stand ready to continue the
fight if the majority of the residents deem
it wise.
Yesterday afternoon an informal meet
ing of the majority of the committee was
held in the office of r. T. Harding, when
it was determined to make strong protest
against the compromise offered by Mr..
Vining. A full report of the two confer
ences with the railroad superintendent will
be read at the Indignation meeting called
for Wednesday night and recommends
ton made that the Market-street company
be forced to restore the old service or sur
render the franchise held in the name of
the Metropolitan company.
