RUINED FOR YEARS.
The Recent Frost an Awful Blow to
Florida Orange Growers.

Inc NcCcut tTOst an AWIuI BLOW 10
Florida Orange Growers.
To fully appreciate the damage done by
the recent frost in the Florida orange
belt Jacksonville correspondent says
that Il personal inspection of the groves
is necessary. Dealers in the North can
rot realize the extent of the damage, else
they would not be sending, as they are,
orders for supplies. The crop is practc-
ally ruined. Some fruit is being shipped
North, but it is nearly all touched by the
frost. i have been pretty much all over
the orange-growing parts of the State
since the frost, and L have yet To see the
first grove that does not look as if il had
been perched by fire. The leaves on
the trees are sere and yellow. An orange
grove can easily be picked out from a
long distance. The live oaks. palmetto.
cabbage. palm and other such trees do
not seem to have been affected. AS they
generally surround more or less the or
ange groves, the yellow leaves of the lat
ter, in comparison with the green of the
others. make Il striking contrast. In many
of these groves few oranges had been
picked. In others nearly all. The total
crop was estimated by experts at 6,O0O,-
coo boxes, half Of which had been gath
cred before the frost. The average price
Of these oranges to the consumers was 50
n box. This would make loss of $1,000
600 on the 2.0OO.O00 boxes that have been
spoiled by the frost. One-half of this
loss falls on the growers the other half
on the dealers and the transportation
companies. l have met number of grow
ers who offered to sell the fruit on the
trees at five cents n box. But they were
unable to sell even at that rate.
The SJ,00O,OO0 loss on oranges is by
no means all. The young trees and many
of the old ones have been killed. How
great the loss will be in this respect will
not bc known until spring. Ill. 5. Kidney,
an old resident of Maitland. says that he
does not believe that more than one-third
of the orange trees Of the State will come
out of the freeze alive. 1t will be possible
to save time. he thinks. 10y cutting them
to the ground and letting them sprout
from the roots. But he expresses the be-
lief that the budded trees of the finer va
rieties are killed to the ground As to
lines and lemons. he says that he does
rot believe that there are any live trees
left The pineapple plants in the south
ern part of the State are also gone. To-
matoes and other vegetables which are
raised in large quantities for the early
Northern markets are also killed.

SCOTS BODY FOUND.

Remains of the Missing Treasurer of
Holt County, Nebraska, Found.
The body of Barrett Scott. the default
ing treasurer of Holt County, Nebraska,
who, while out riding with his family on
New Years eve. was fired upon by a
party of vigilantes, and after being
wounded was dragged from his carriage,
blindfolded and then placed into another
vehicle and taken in northerly direc-
ton, was found about 10 o'clock Satur-
day night in the Niobrara River, about
300 feet below the bridge on the Boyd
County side, close up to the bank and in
about seven feet of water. He was in
his shirt sleeves, but had his watch and
chain and other personal effects on Just
as he wore them in life. The body was
taken to an undertaking establishment
and there placed on board, Just as taken
from the river, frozen and disheveled
the rope around the neck. hands tied be-
hind him and clothing and hair filled with
sand. Wounds i'm the right ear and back
Of the head are plainly visible, but there
is no other evidence of violence. Yet to
what torture he may have been subjected
before death came to his relief can only
be conjectured by his friends and re-
vealed by his murderers. The body was
Immediately taken charge of by Coroner
Hoover, of Boyd County, and an inquest
was begun.
The credit of finding the body was
largely due TO the energy and enterprise
of the citizens of the vicinity of Northern
Holt and Southern Boyd Counties. The
day after Scotts disappearance some of
the parties who have since been arrested
for completely in the murder were seen
lurking around in the vicinity Of the Mo
brara bridge, and suspicion was aroused
that the body had been thrown into the
river. A week last Friday the search be-
gan. The weather at that time was so
cold that many of the searchers froze
fingers, noses and ears, and work was
temporarily suspended. Saturday morn
ing by concerted action by citizens of that
vicinity and delegations from O'Neill, At
kinson, Spencer and Butte the work was
resumed, with above result.

was not until 1881 that he made his first
appearance upon the floor of the Chamber
of Deputies. Since that time he has been
an Under-Secretary of State in three
Cabinets, serving in the intervening per-
iods as Deputy, and for a brief term as
Minister of Marine in the Dupuy Cab
met.
Until the temper of the French people
can be ascertaincd it will b. impossible
to foresee the possible effects of the cleo
ton. What is most important just now
is that definite and early decision of tho
Presidential contest is good thing for
France. 1t was more important that the
Presidency should he filled than that .he
man elected should be exactly the right
man 70 fill it. The avenue through whcn
danger menaced the Constitution lay
through possible deadlock in the Assem-
bly,, with the result of final usurpation
of authority. This danger has been avert
ed. Whether NJ. Faure is the man to con-
ciliate opposing factions and maintain a
neutral, conservative government is yet
to be seen.
Crawford avalanche. (Grayling, Mich.) 1879-19??, 1895-01-31

The result of the election in the French
National Assembly was in its way nearly
as surprising as the sudden desertion of
his post by NJ. Casimir- -Perier. Nj. Felix
Faure, the new President of France, was
probably the least prominent of the three
candidates who showed strength in tue
contest His own following in the AS
sembly gave him on the first ballot but
PIG votes to 344 votes for Nj. Brisson and
1875 for Nj. Waldeck- Rousseau, and it
was only when the latter withdrew from
the field that the second and decisive bal
lot gave him a majority Of votes over NJ.
Brisson.
In the French political turmoils of the
last ten years Nj. Faure has played com
paratively inconspicuous part and outside
France his name is almost unknown. At
the age of "a he looks back upon long
career of public service, both military and
civil, but curiously free from sensational
successes or defeats. In the Franco
Prussian war he was chief of battalion
and later was an active participant in the
work of putting down the commune. 1t

TO lRRIaAre 100000 ACRES.
An Immense Canal to BE CONSTRUCTED
I'm Northern Nebraska.

An Immense Canal to BE Constructed
I'm Northern Nebraska.
One of the most stupendous industrial
projects ever set on foot in Western
America il now taking definite shape in
O'Neill, Neb. A company composed of
many of the leading business men OF
O'Neill has been organized for the purpose
of constructing an immense irrigating
ditch over 200 miles long, which Will
water over 300, 900 acres Of land and open
up to settlement cultivation and pros
perity an area of country larger than
Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode
Island. The cost of the undertaking is
estimated at from 81 10000 to $2,oOO,-
600. To secure the capital necessary to
undertake this great work the company
is making contracts with the owners of
real estate along the main line and its
laterals stipulatng for the payment OF $S
per acre in ten yearly installments for
the construction of said canal and an an
nual water rental of 81 per acre for the
use of the water. 1t is believed the COM
ing summer will see this great river of
liquid prosperity pouring on its way to
the homes and homesteaders of Northern
Nebraska and ushering in an era of pros
region along its line.
Like many other of the worlds great
projects n rigorous necessity was its
mother. The settlement of Northern Neb-
raska began fifteen years ago. In an in
credibly short space Of time several towns
sprang up and thousands of acres were
given over to the cultivation of crops.
Up TO 1890 prosperity smiled upon the
hardy settlers. The fertile fields yielded
an abundance of crops, the cattle fattened
and it seemed to them that no fairer re-
gion ever blossomed under the rays of the
summers sun. But during the last i've
years n great cloud of adversely has been
projected across the landscape of those
fair Nebraska fields and a succession of
crop failures has followed year after year.
The farmers and business men became
discouraged and at legth turned toward
their streams for salvation. The Mo
brara River, which runs 300 miles from
east to west, was selected as the means
of bringing into new life their barren
fields. The plan OF the present company
is to tap this stream at n point south of
Rushville, Neb., and send its waters
through an irrigation canal, which will
run almost parallel TO it, throwing out its
laterals right and loft TO carry their bless
ings to regions which have suffered so
long from drought.
