FULLER's EARTH.
Some Rich Finds of 1t Made Near
OcaIa.

OcaIA.
Ocala, Fla, March 23-James B. Peach
er. an experienced phosphate prospector.
reports that for the past six weeks he has
been busy examining old phosphate pits
in the neighborhood Of Electra, and is
satisfied he has discovered the genuine
Fuller's earth. 1t has been sent to COM
petent chemists and they have pronounced
equal to the best English commodity
The Gainesville banker, j. NJ. Graham,
has been provided with means to look
up this commodity. He has secured OPP
tons on 800 acres of land, and on 10
acre parcel they have found Fullers
earth deposit to be twelve feet thick.
Last November party, whose name Is
withheld, discovered Fullers earth in the
village of BelleviaW. The title of the land
on which the. earth was found Is in the
town of Belleview, it being held for park
purposes. He went before the council and
secured a lease of it,
In the meanwhile the secret got out that
this clay was not common earth. and
many of the winter visitors who had come
in for the season to occupy their winter
homes began to find fault with the action
of the council and did some high kicking,
saying they had assisted the town in Sc
curing this land for park purposes. and
they did not believe the town council had
authority to lease IL. They secured an at
torney. TO set aside the lease. AS far as
known no action has yet been taken in
the matter. This discovery was the first
fullers earth found in Marion county.

The FIorida Cnautauoua.

A correspondent sends us the following
relative to the session of the Florida Chau-
tauqua, which has just closed:
The Chautauqua assembly at DeFuniak
Springs. Fla, which has just drawn to a
close has been one of the most brilliant
in the history of the society. Thousands
of visitors have foeked to the meetings
from all parts of the state, and on Satur-
Gays, when the railroads ran excursions,
the large tabernacle was filled to over
flowing, and hundreds were turned away
The assembly was a. very brilliant one,
and the lectures and addresses by the best
speakers in the country engaged the at
tention OF the, visitors, up to the last day.
Rogers orchestra Of Indiana was in at
tendance during the entire session, and
added to the work of the chorus under
the direction of DIR. H. r. Palmer
The, chorus did excellent work and it's
united efforts and enthusiasm under the
direction of DR.. Palmer added much to
the success of the assembly. DR.. Palmer
has had lifetime of experience as a con-
ductor and the wonderful results obtained
by him with the choruses in phrasing, ar
ticulation and precision i'm such short time
holds the interest of each member until
the last day, in fact, the assembly would
not be complete without DR.. Palmer The
accompanist of the session, Miss Alice w
Bates OF Savannah, added to the laurels
she gained last year. Her work and tech
nique show the care of the true musician
while her support in the solo work added

Bates in his inimitable way soon had the
audience roaring with laughter, and kept
them at it through a full hour and half
Professional humorists who were in the
audience were greatly interested, and
gave him heartiest praise. Prof. Riggs of
Indiana, an humorist of long experience
said that his lecture would be acceptable

YUMA'S NEW ICE PLANT.
Cost S3,O00 in Cash-Will Furnish Ice
 at Greatly Reduced Rates.

Yuma Times: For some time per sons passing the Nugent building, cor ner Third and Main streets, have mo- ticed a promiscuous assortment of ma chinery, iron pipes, curled in all sorts of shapes, tanks and so on, and have considered much thereat. The eXpla- nation is simple, however, and means a good deal to Yuma, since it is the machinery for a new ice and cold stor- age company, which will open here for business by the first of next month Darby Ford, Edward Cline, and Joe Cook of Fl Paso, Texas, are the gen tlemen who compose the Yuma Ice company, the firm name of the new enterprise. They come here with the best of references and understand well the business of ice manufacturing Their machinery, which cost S3,0O0, is practically new and ample for the needs of this city, having a total ca pacity of two tons per day. In connec- tion with the ice business they will also have a cold storage department This is indeed enterprise, for Yuma will then be the only town in the ter ritory with such convenience. The best part of it all, howeved, is the fact that this company will sell their pro duet at cent a pound, MT. Ford saying that being laboring man himself, he desired to live and let live, having no wish to practice extortion, and desiring only reasonable return for his labor capital invested and enterprise.

Destructive Net ishing.

Ocean net fishing such as is to be op- erated off Bay Shore, L. l., is a neaf equivalent to the pound-net fishing of the Chesapeake. The Chesapeake pound nets are tended twice a day by men who drive great fatboats with enormously long oars, anchor their craft besiele the pound and scoop out the fish by the bushel. The business is regarded as peculiarly destructive to the fine game fish of the Chesapeake, for the pound netter takes whatever comes and spares nothing that is big enough to fry.

KID THOMPsON's NERVE.
It Accompanies Him Even Into San
 Quentin.

Los Angeles Express: Deputy Sher- tiff Guy Woodward, who with Sheriff Burr took Kid Thompson, sentenced to be hanged on May p, to San Quen- tin, returned Friday and the stories he tells about the doings of the young train robber while en route are very amusing.
 Woodward states that the Kid never slept wink on the train, but was jok- ing everyone who came near him.
 Long before they reached Mojave, Kid told Sheriff Burr that the train would be held up before they reached Fresno.
 At Lancaster Constable Dowler boarded the train and held quite a conversation with the prisoner. After Dowler had gone the Kid remarked to Guy Woodward that he could easily have stolen Dowler's gun, but that he did not believe it was good one.
 During the night the Kid was quite talkatipe, and among other things said:
 q am sorry they did not give me an opportunity of saying something when sentence was pronounced. I intended to request Judge Smith not to swing me off at the same time Craig and Durrant go, as I object to being asso- ciated with women killers. I never injured a woman in my life
 When nearing San Francisco a min ister came into the car and, walking up ito the Kid, remarked:
 My young friend are you preparing your soul to meet its maker?"
 The Kid with twinkle in his eye, replied;
 Just at present have got all I want to do in looking after this g. d-n neck of mine without bothering with my soul"
 When being taken across the bay, Sheriff Burr started to take his pris- oner down below decks, when Kid with the grace of a Chesterfield, said
 +'See here. Burr. you are hardly treating me square. This is my last steamb boat ride and I should be al- lowed the privilege of enjoying it. want to go up where 1 can see the ladies for the last time"
 He kept up his jollying even after the doors of the prison had closed be- hind him and when he bade Sheriff Burr and Deputy Woodward goodbye, he said:

AN OLD TIME VISITOR
How Editor Banta Came to Phoenix
 Thirty Years Ago.

On yesterdays Santa Fe train was
 Editor A. F. Banta of the Holbrook Ar
 gus, one of the best of the weeklies of
 the territory. It is MT. Banta's first
 visit to Phoenix since 1883, wheu he arrived over the Black canyon road, coming by stage in company with Pat migration. Naturally the returning traveller is surprised, and even after he got his feet upon Washington street he needed a guide to direct him to points well known in the past. He will remain but a few days, going hence to Tucson, to see if the ancient pueblo has had as great growth
 T believe, however, said Judge Banta, 'that I am about as old a citi- zen as any in the valley. I got here first in 1869, when this place had hard ly been started. 1 in company with several others, came in from Tonto Basin, having made the trip through from the Zuni villages, through the heart of the Apache country. After leaving the care of old Apache Chief Del Shay he cleared the way across the Tonto Creek valley for us to old Camp Reno by means of signal fires and thence to this valley we saw no signs of Indians. We found good quarters east of here with Jack Swilling, who had just taken out a canal from Salt river, and stayed three weeks, fatten- ing up. Jack has gone, but I see that Col. Lum Gray, about as early an old timer, is still with you.'
 Judge Banta for many years has been a resident of St. Johns, Apache county, but on the organization of the new county of Navajo went to Hol- brook. where he reports the best of success in the neWspapar business.
