ALLIGAToRs GROWING SCARCE.
Florida Turtles, Too, Suffering from the
Inroads of the Reckless Hunter.

The United States fisheries commission
has investigated the Florida alligator
and reported that unless steps are tax
en- to protect this water animal from
hunters it will soon be as completely ex-
terminated as the American buffalo.
The alligator is hunted for its skin and
for sport, and it's combined enemies have
greatly reduced the number of ami
mails seen annually in the waters and
marshes of Florida. 1t is estimated that
not many years will pass before the
Florida alligator will disappear entirely,
unless the federal government or the
state interfereS.
Hillsboro, De Solo, and Lee counties
are the parts of the state where most al
ligators are taken by hunters. There
the industry is said to be much less eX-
tensive than heretofore, owing to eX-
cessive hunting and wanton killing by
those who make no use Of the animals
or their skins. In these three coun-
ties alone PA persons were engaged last
year in hunting alligators, their invest
ment in boats and business amounting to
$4,000. During the year, 1850 skins
were taken, and probably 500 alligators
were killed but never recovered.
The commission has investigated also
the culture of turtles in Florida. and
finds there is danger that these animals,
too, will be annihilated unless the prac
tice of stealing their eggs is stopped
These great turtles breed off the shores
of the state from April until July, during
which time the female seeks the sandy
shores of the keys or the mainland in re-
mote places. She arrives at night, and
with her flippers dies hole one or two
feet deep in the sand, above high-water
mark, in which she lays her eggs. num-
bering from 100 to 200. The turtle then
scoops the sand back over the eggs,
smooths the surface, and rapidly re-
treats to the water. leaving the eggs to
hatch without further attention. The
Matching occurs in a few weeks, and
then the young ones make their way to
the water The turtle returns two or three
times to the same spot during the year,
each time deposting the same number
of eggs, SO that the total number laid by
the average female turtle in year is
from 800 to 600 These turtles attain
an enormous size, some weighing 1000
pounds. This great turtle is said to be
the most valuable in the state fisheries.
The commission recommends that for a
term Of years at least the animal should
be unmolested during the period when it
seeks the shores to lay its eggs and that
the practice of gathering the eggs should
be stopped entirely.

A COSTLY Husband.

The man whom Emma G. Spreckels,
daughter of the multe-millionaire, mar
ried ought to feel that he is appreciated;
ought TO experience a delightful thrill
over the unique and graceful compli-
ments that his consort is continually pay
ing to his worth; ought to be prouder
than king, sugar king, over the cumu-
lative evidence Of his companions devo-
ton, says the Detroit Free Press. Miss
Spreckels offended her wealthy sire when
she became Mrs. Watson. The relations
between daughter and father became SO
strained that the bride had to choose
between earthly possessions and loyalty
to her husband Like the worthy young
woman in the poems and story books she
chung to her none too opulent iege lord
and soon after her marriage began re-
turning to Father Spreckles little SOU
venirs of his regard in the past, such as
81, 100000 in bonds, and other tokens of
an affection at present slightly shattered.
Now she has decided back to her father
a fine mansion and sundry building lots
in Honolulu, and the only property she
retains is the building bearing her maid
en- and Christian name on Market street,
opposite Mason street, San Francisco.
If Watson wears as we'll as he has up
to date, that may go back. too. IN time.

SMOKED sToGIEs
In a Pullman Car, Did FitzsimmOns,
but To One MOlested Him.


The crew of one of the east-bound
limited trains is retailing good story
about Bob Fitzsimmons, the champion
pugilist, and how he nearly started a
riot among the other passengers on his
recent trip East. Bob and his great
liking for Pittsburg stogies caused the
trouble, says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
It seems that he had the drawing room
in one of the Pullman cars, and inceS-
sanity persisted in smoking green sto-
gies that emitted an odor rivaling a
slaughter house on a hot summers day.
Opening windows and ventilators had
no effect in changing the air made rich
by Champion Bob'S stogies, and the
passengers raved and swore, all to no.
effect While the rules of the sleeping
car company do not permit smoking In
drawing rooms, the tran men didn't con-
slider it any Of their business to lcok aft
er Mr.. Pullman's interests, and the por-
ter refused point blank to take any
chances in asking Fitz to quit. In TACT.

their hands full, and the crew that took
the train into Pittsburg sent back word
that If Fitz hadn't got off at that point
bloodshed would have surely resulted
from the smell Of those green stogles.

Deadlock in the Council.

CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis, May 26.-The
night from 1880 until o'clock this morning.
Mayor Poznanski refused to nominate two
fireman, and the aldermen refused to ad-
journ Repeated attempts were made to quit
the council chamber, but each one Was voted
down. The mayor sent for couple Of blank
cts and made himself comfortable in his chair,
and the aldermen dispatched the court Of
ficer for lunch and refreshments. Both sides
stuck it out until two hours before daylight,
and then the Democrats moved an adjourn
ment until next Friday night, which was
carried. The city ordinances provide for the
appointment of four fremen, but the mayor
refuses to appoint more than two, which he
deems sufficient and the council are endeavor-
ing to force him into making the other two
appointments. Mr.. Poznansh will not be
forced and the Democrats are endeavoring
to muster sufficient votes to impeach him at
the meeting next Friday evening.

NIGHTS TOO COOL.
Conditions Not the Best for Crops In
South Dakota.

Special to the Globe -,5
HURON, S. D., May 26.-Crops in
South Dakota were referred to as fol-
lows in today's bulletin issued from the
government weather bureau here, most
of the reports having been received be-
fore the late frosts:
Reports indicate that the cool nights were
favorable for the stooling of early wheat. oats,
barley and rye, which is quite generally re-
ported as doing well.
Fair to copious, and in some localities
quite heavy showers occurred during the
week over portions of most counties, greatly
benefiting all vegetation especially late sown
grain, which the preceding week was need
ing rain for starting that which had not
sprouted and nourishing that already
sprouted.
Gardens and pastures were also much ben
efitted by the rains.
which is coming slowly, except where rains
occurred the carly part Of the week. and there
appears to be considerable replanting of this
crop necessary in localities, because of poor
seed. Corn planting. generally, is nearing
completion, and some Is high enough in
southern localities to be plowed.
Flax seeding Is far advanced, though some
is to be done yet, and it is thought that but
little was far enough advanced in growth to
be hurt by the frost in localities where it oc-
Cured.
There is some complaint of "cut worms"
working in the corn.
There are still some localities that need
more rain for late grain. corn gardens and
grass especially, and 1t would be very bene-
fetal to early grain.
