ITALY,s ARMY IN ABYssINIA.
GaIIianO's Men I'm Rags When They
Reached BaratferI

Rome. Jan. S1.-Dispatches from Gen.
Baratieri. commander-in-chief Of the Ital-
ian forces in Abyssinia, say that when Col.
Gallianos' column arrived at Baratieri's
camp they were clad in rags and COM
pletely encased in dust and dirt. For
twenty-five days they had not been able
to wash, owing to the scarcity of water
at Makalle, but their ardor was not whit
abated and they were unanimous In ex-
pressions Of anxiety to take part in the
engagement with the enemy. Col. CALI
ano explained that King Menelek did not
wish to release him and his command, but
that Ras Makonner, commanding the
Abyssinnian army, which besieged the It.
allan fortress at Makalle, insisted that they
should be allowed to proceed to Gen. Bar
atieris camp.
F'orty-five members Of the party OF
the left in the Chamber OF Deputies
have subscribed their names to a resolu-
ton condemning and calling attention to
the illegality of the war In Abyssinia,
in the prosecution of which, they declare
vast sums of money are being sQuandered.
These protesting deputies demand that the
Chambers shall Immediately be convened
for the purpose of taking action in the
matter, to the end Of putting stop to the
war.

feet high, with spread of over thirty
feet in branches full of bloom, were killed

Now that the last day of January has
come and the predicted freezes have not
materialized, it is wonderful what a
change has come over everybody in any
way interested in orange growing. Our
heavy rains have been followed by warm,
sunshinny days, and plant life has taken
on regular boom. 1t has been many a
year since our winter closed with such
hopeful prospects as are now before us,
and without any disaster in ambush for
us we shall come into a spring and sum-
mer of great activity. While there are
many paying Industries in Florida the
one great industry that helped to keep all
wheels moving was the orange business
When that came to a sudden halt a thou
sand growers stopped buying fertilizers,
orange-box stuff. etc. This of itself, was
a big loss, but just now the fertilizer trade
in which Savannah is so deeply interested.
is starting up. Neglected and abandoned
groves that were left over to await the
result of this winters predicted freeze, are
now being worked and fortified, and in a
few months unsightly groves will be few
and far between in the orange growing sec
ton of the state.
