Ocala, Fla, March 11.-Your correspond

west coast over the Plant system. He
found more ground prepared for crops
in Marion county than any section WIS.,

Marion and Citrus than elsewhere. Count

Citrus. He noticed that b. Arentz & Co.

at Inverness are waiting for their car of

turn out a fertilizer.
From Tarpon Springs to st. Peters

the coming crop of oranges. Parties
well posted say that they shipped dur

which sold for $2.25 box on the tree to
$3.75 on the car.
shipper received returns Monday
morning while your correspondent was in
Clear Water, and they were sold for s.. 20 to
$500 a box. This years crop is estimated
at 10000 boxes in the section already spo-
ken of. The trees are looking well and
white with blooms.
Tarpon and Clear Water are full of win
ter visitors. At the latter place, there is
not a house to rent and in both places
many new houses will go up this summer
several quite expensive ones for winter
residents. At Tarpon every interest is CEN
tering in clay roads for bicycles. A track
is built to Lake Butler to the east and
during the summer a track of three miles
will be built to Anclote Light, on the Gulf
of Mexico.
Owing to the promise of growth in the
orange trees many persons are at work re-
facilitating their groves, which were per
mitted to rest since the freeze of February,
1895.

pensive machinery, and on Jan. /, 1895,

ers; the former owns 10 shares at the

of accepting or rejecting a proposition
from another firm for the manufactur-
ing of its heaters, and also for consider
ing the advisability of leasing the shop

Body Of q Colored Man Found
In Austin Woods.

Hotelkeeper John Won Weisenfluh, Of
Taylor, is now lying In a precarious
condition as result of an assault upon
him by David Davis and William Nor
ris. early yesterday morning.
Weisenfluh was trying to eject the
two men when the assault occurred. He
formerly kept a hotel on Union street,
but recently moved his place of busi-
ness to Taylor street. Monday night
he was giving an opening and several
turbulent characters attended.
When 1t came time to close up he had
much difficulty in clearing the house.
Finally all Were induced to leave with
the exception of Davis and Morris.
They refused to get out and when the
proprietor attempted to eject them they
turned upon him and gave him a vic
ious beating
Some weapon was doubtlessly used
for Wefsenfiuhs skull was fractured.
He also sustained other injuries and the
opinion Of DR.. Houser. who was called
to attend him. is that the chances are
against his recovery. He was still alive
last night but his condition remained
unchanged.
His assailants have disappeared.
warrants were yesterday issued for
their arrest. but no trace could be found
Of their whereabouts.
Mr. Weisentiuh Is Swiss and one of
the leading men of that race In this
region.
DIED ALONE IN THE WOODS.
A party of fire fighters found the
dead body of an unknown colored man
In the woods near Austin Heights,
about mile back Of the Sibley mine,
Monday afternoon. Some brambles
were twisted about his neck and near
him lay broken strap. which had evil
IDENTIFY been used by him as belt. His
pockets were searched to see II any
thing could be found that would give
q clew to his identity, but they con-
tanned nothing except 20 cents and a
paper containing some illegible writing.
The body was badly decomposed, and
had probably lain there for several
weeks.
Coroner Longstreet was yesterday
notified and directed Justice of the
Peace Reese. Of Old Forge, to hold an
inquest. A jury was empanelled and
after viewing the remains and finding
no evidences Of foul play, came to the
conclusion that it was a case of sui
eide.

Jane Lewis died last night. Mrs. Will
liam Hayes, of North Main avenue,
who has been caring for the child since
it's mothers death realizing that the
days of the little one were numbered
took 1t to Coroner LOngstreet last even
ing In order that he might see its physi-
cal condition so that in case of the
little one dying on her hands she would
be free from censure. Then she started
for the West Side to turn the child over
to it's grandfather, Alfred Lewis, and
while passing along West Lackawanna
avenue the babe died in her arms.
In her CONSERVATION she called upon
Patrolman Marker and in his company
she proceeded to the house of Mrs.
Cavel Bartron, of 724 West Lackawan-
ma avenue, where Mr.. Lewis was sum-
moned. He took charge of the remains
and had them removed to his home.
Coroner Longstreet's investigation
into the cause of Mary Jane Lewis
death yesterday satisfied him that there
was no occasion for an inquest. He
found the physician who attended her
in her last illness and he stated posit-
lively to the coroner that the woman
died from blood poisoning but that
drugs were not the cause Of that condi-
