SANFORD HAPPENINGS.
Numerous Matters of Interest in
That Thriving City.


Sanford. Fla, May 3.-Our people are
highly gratified in being able to secure the
congressional convention here in June.
Sanford has heretofore kept up her repu-
tation as a generous and genial enter
tainer, if the testimony of the hremen,
the Grand Army veterans, the doctors,
the Knights of Pythias, the COnfeder-
ate Veterans, etc, Is TO be relied upon
With the Sanford house open for the
summer, we can accommodate the biggest
crowd that a congressional convention will
bring here. We have no home candidate
to put in the race, and our people are
ready to second the nomination Of any
good man to succeed Congressman Coop
err Such a man, however, will have no
Walk-Over in the matter of nomination
Yesterday was red-letter day here for
the office-seekers and confederate veter-
ans of Orange county. The Daughters Of
the Confederacy made it a gala day for the
old soldiers and their families, and the
Office-holders and offce-seekers came IN
TO shake hands all around. At noon a fine
dinner was served by the Daughters in
the PicO block, which was literally pa
tronized, and at night a most enjoyable
entertainment was given at the opera
house. The singing Of the Bonnie Blue
Flag" and Dear Old Dixie and Dixie

WORTH MORE THAN GOLD.

Santatun is u gray mass very much like
rubidium. Its value is $50 per ounce, al
though at wholesale it would be trifle
cheaper.
Thuriuin closely resembles palladium,
but while the latter is worth only SS per
ounce its twin, thurium, is sold for S160
per ounce.
Germanium, closely resembling tin, rs 1t
does, is nevertheless worth sos per ounce
and is one of the most expensive metals
used TO any extent.
Vanadium comes in black powder and
is one Of the hardest metals to melt. 1t is
of little use In association with other
metals, because cheaper metals secure the
same results that its use would give. Its
price is S4S per ounce.
Gallium belongs to the same group as
does tin and Is worth exactly ten times
what gold Is worth per ounce. 1t is not
used to any extent for any purpose, and it
Is secured by the deposit in certain chem
ical operations, primarily for other pur-
poses Gold Is worth SEQ per ounce, gal

SOME NOTED WOMEN.

According to the teachings of at least
one rabbi, Eve was a blond.
The Empress Elizabeth of Russia was
one of the stoutest women of her time.
Mrs. Siddons was large, with very
striking features and an air of great per-
sonal dignity.
Queen Anne Of England had a very red
face, from the constant use of stimulants.
Her irreverent subjects called her Brandy
Nan.
Eleanor of England had very strong
nose and an iron will, and to the latter,
no doubt, owed her influence over her hus-
band
Fanny Mozart was a petite beauty of
exceedingly pleasing address. Her man.
ners were very fascinating, and she had a
confding, sympathetic way that won all
hearts.
Catherine II was handsome woman In
early life, but dissipation and vice soon
destroyed every trace Of her good looks.
She became very fleshy and coarse in up
pearance.
Henrietta Maria had q large mole on her
neck. She was often solicited to have it
removed, but always refused, from a su-
perstitious motive, to have the operation
performed
Artemisia, the wife of Mausolus, who
built in honor of her husband tomb so
splendid that it has given his name to Sc
pulchral structures, was brunette Greek
beauty. Her eyes were brilliantly black,
and her features very regular.
A Chinese poem celebrates the praises
of Chinese beauty named Ai-ee, who
lived about the time of the much lamented
Emperor Mo-vang, in the eleventh century.
She was said to have the largest eyes and
the smallest feet Of any lady of her time.

since the days when he was midshipmap,

INDUCED In on the sly.
The emperor of Austria smokes so called
Virginia cigars, which, being manufac-
tured of the rankest tobacco at Triest,

they have to be held in q flame for several
minutes to light.
