SCORCHERS IN TROUBLE.
Four Young lien Pay Fines For
Sidewalk Riding.

Friday evening as Chief Yates was
standing on the sidewalk near r. d.
Hubbard's residence, on South Broad
street, two young men riding bicycles
passed him, one on each side, at a
scorching pace, almost taking his
breath away. He shouted to them to
get off of the walk, but they passed
on with laugh. Mr.. Yates went
down to Front street and intercepted
them as they came back and notified
them to report at the municipal court
at nine o'clock this morning.
Promptly on the appointed time
Saturday Alfred J. Sweet and
Herbert Snow, two prominent young
riders, walked into the court room.
They were charged with violating the
law which prohibits sidewalk riding,
and pleaded guilty. Judge Shissler
stated that there had been many
complaints in regard to this of late,
but he desired to be as lenient as the
law would allow in the present case.
He fined each rider one dollar and
costs, or 81. IS each, which was prompt
ly paid.
Chief Yates is determined to en-
force the law, and had two policemen
on the back streets today for that
purpose. He is deserving of COM
mendation for this move, and we hope
that he will persevere until all riders
have learned wholesome respect fol
the law. 1t cannot be denied that
scorching and other pleasure riding
on the walks has been INDUCED in
this spring to an extent which has
tried the patience of pedestrians
Where business man or workman
or clerk in store uses wheel to ride
from distant part of the city and
takes to the walks when the streets
are too muddy, there will be no com.
plant on the part Of the public. 1t
is the pleasure riding and the swift
speed that are objected to, and Chief
Yates has shown an impartiality in
enforcing the law which is refreshing.
The two young men who were before
the court this morning are from lead
ing families, and are themselves eX-
cellent young men, and their sidewalk
riding has been with no desire to viol-
ate the law, but rather from eXuber-
ance of spirits Mr. Snow stated that
it was the first sidewalk riding that
he had done, and would be the last.

Saturday a young Normal

charge of riding his wheel on the side

riding on the walk on Fifth street

pedestrians on the walk. He pleaded
guilty and paid S4.65 into the city

editor Florida Agriculturist:

The article from Neyland Brothers
giving the results of years of practical
experience, demonstrating what can be
done in the right time and right way,
is quite refreshing to read, after so
much stuff from people who don't know
what they are talking about, but just
think they know it.
Now why can't you get some facts
from old pineapple growers, in place of
of such long articles from parties who
never raised any at all, only just going
to.

obtained, of ten to fifteen years expert
ence, from parties down on the Indian

Preserving Big Game.


ADRIAN, Michigan, June 30-The
recent death of Austin Corbin, the New
England null i-millionalre, at his villa
near Newport, N. H., elicits special in
terest here. Mr.. Corbin has the most
extensive private preserve for large
game that probably exists, covering 49,
900 acres in the Blue Mountain Forest.
On this magnificent range much of the
Page Woven Wire Fence has been used,
the works for the manufacture of which
exist in this city.
The great financier had adopted
the Adrian product in preference to all
others. He had given much attention
to preserving from extinction the Amer
lean buffalo; and one Of the stipulations
submitted for enclosing his New Hamp
shire domain was that the fence should
be proof against attempts to leap it, or
break through, on the part of these
powerful and agile animals.
Unlike barb wire and analogous de-
vices the Page product is protection
instead Of menace to animals within
it's enclosure. A short time ago he
donated to the park commissioners of
New York number of bison from his
Blue Mountain herd, with the condition
that none but Page fencing be used to
enclose them.
Stimulated by Mr.. Corbin's example.
the Page people have instituted zoo of
their own. A range of 81 acres has
been inclosed, and in this the COM
pany has placed number of deer and
elk, with nine bison. These were OBJ
tained after considerable trouble and
expense, so rare are bull-blooded speci-
mems of the American bison becoming.
Nero, a supurb animal weighing 1900
pounds, died recently from injuries sus-
tanned in its transportation to the Adrian
park, and has been mounted together
with beautiful elk and donated to the
museum of Adrian college.
Having succeeded so we'll in coraling
the brawny bison, the Page people are
now preparing fence to enclose the
elephants in Lincoln park, Chicago, and
relieve the animals from the chains
which keep them in subsection at the
expense of their tempers and physical
condition.
The company has also made tender
to the government to enclose range at
Yellowstone park, and save from depre-
dation and loss the few buffalo that re-

A gentleman of this city who is largely
interested in the manufacture of cigars
says more cigars are made in Florida than
in Cuba, but that there is no tobacco in
the world like tina. of Cuba. The Florida
cigar trade depends upon the product of
the favored but unfortunate island. With
out Havana tobacco, the Florida cigars
could not be kept up to their present re-
cognized standard of excellence. The gem
tleman also said that American smokers
use the best cigars in the world. While
a few thousand, possibly, of the very best
Havana cigars made are sent to Russia,
their number is a mere bagatelle as COM
pared with the millions of cigars con-
sumed annually in America. If the war
in Cuba continues much longer or the
Spanish military regulations regarding
the expectation of tobacco are kept in
force. there must necessarily be an ad-
vance in Florida cigars.
