HOLDS UP A TRAIN.

Louis d'Omito, the heavy weight
"mover," hauled the front of the
new bank vault from the Florida
Southern depot Yesterday evening
on a ponderous log wagon.
This piece of metal, which con-
tains all of the intricate mechan-
ism of the three automatic locks,
weighs just 1900 pounds, or SIX
and ond-half tons.
Louis found it slow work for his
long string of men to pull the
wagon up Osceola street, and, his
route lying parallel with the rail-
road track, he proceeded TO hold
up passing locomotive on the
narrow gauge track, and made the
engine draw his wagon to the post
office corner, to the great amuse,
ment of the crowd who had gath
cred to witness the sight.
Louis says there is nothing like
the Plant System.

that the only incident that marred
her complete happiness was the
absence of her husband, who is ir

Dickinson College President sayn Some
Sharp Things.
Rev. DIR. George E. Reed president
of Dickinson college, has publicly made
the following statement regarding Rev.
T. De Witt Talmage:
Noting that our Popocratic breth-
rem are making a considerable noise
over the fact that DR.. T. De Witt Tai
mage has announced himself for Bryan,
free silver, etc., it occurred to me to re-
call certain facts in connection with the
history of gentleman whose neighbor
was for nine years of my life.
During those years DR.. Talmage was
everywhere recognized as Democrat,
save in the intervals when he posed as a
third party Prohibitionist. never knew
of his being recognized in any sense as
a Republican.
'That he now announces himself as a
supporter of Bryan and Sewall, or, pos
/. sibly Bryan and Watson, is but an indi-
cation that the eloquent doctor has
'verted'' again. and this time to the
ranks of the Populists, illustrating the
declaration of the Scriptures, The Sec
ond state Of that man shall be worse
than the first.

in a few we'll prepared words. Re-
sponse by Roscoe Wolcott, and j. A.

UNCLE SAM has done a good job in
making clean the Ice Harbor lot on
Front street, so far as he has gone; but
would it not be pertinent to suggest
that he give us some rent for the use of
the valuable premises for more than a
score of years last past? Could he not,
for instance, do some filing on the
place? That would be a gracious
thing to do, and it would at least show
his appreciation of the use of the prom
inent spot. Let him fill and put the
place in grass, and make what now is
an eyesore, blossom into an attractive
piece of public property.
