Oviedo and East Orange today is
fast recovering from the terrible set
back of that never to be forgotten
winter. Many of our people were dis
heartened over the sight of the once
beautiful groves frozen to the ground
with not a green twig to be found on
them; something they had never seen
nor heard of before in this section,
and number of families departed for
newer fields, many leaving the state.
But after hearing of the bright pros
poets that are in store for the owners
of these frozen groves are now again
turning their faces toward Florida

A thorough sportsman has suggest
ed to us this week that Florida needs
a closed season against the killing of
duck and for the catching of fish.
During the warm months the summer
duck remains in this state and hatch
es and rears it's young. Hunters have
been known to kill these duck during
the laying season, thereby killing out
the source of supply. The fish dealers
are also in favor of a closed season for
the better preservation of the fish in
our river. We believe thatc losed sea-
sons are needed for all the fish and
game in this state aside from those
which are now protected, such as
quail, deer, etc.-Titusville Star.
A Southern Educational Assembly
was organized at Winter Park last
week. It's object is to assemble pop
ular and practical conventions in the
interest of industrialism, science, art,
literature and whatever else may be
deemed good for society. The officers
are: President, G. M. Ward of Win
ter Park; secretary, w. c. Comstock
of Chicago; treasurer, M. A. Henckle
of Winter Park. The advisory board
will be composed of representatives
from all of the states.
The Tampa Times thus briefly ex-
plains how Florida is the master of
the tobacco situation, and if our peo-
pie do not profit by it they will have
only themselves to blame: "There is
encouragement for the growers of
fine cigar tobacco in South Florida in
the statement that the Cuban tobacco
yield the past year was but $4,000
bales, as compared with 100000 bales
the year previous. The scarcity of the
Cuban product will make it much
easier for the excellent Florida sub
stitute to capture the markets.

"The Laurels? Why, bless you, sir,

reply.
A little later I met the rector as

"They fought duel, and it was not

that Guy relented. Then he searched
the country far and wide for surgeon,
and found one at last-just too late.
The boy died as they entered the room.
Guy blew his brains out the day of the
funeral, and the villagers have some
foolish tale that the house is haunted.
But that is, of course, mere talk"
''What day did all this take placer"
I gasped, feeling sick and giddy.
"Let me see, [ know-sOmewher this

I had expected my tired horse to go
slowly, but to my surprise he seemed
unusually fresh, SHE'D and even at
tempted to rear when my impatient Wis
itor laid his hand on him. 1t was with
difficulty that I harnessed him at all.
The horse had always been perfectly
quiet and steady before, but several
times during that lonely drive thought
he would have landed us in ditch.
At last we reached rusty iron gate,
where Chilvers leaped out, and, Selling
the horse by the bit, slipped the rein
over the post. Then as I got down he
flung open the gate and pushed me in.

longer I must have made the best of my
way out into the dark drive and left my
patient to his fate, so unnerved had I
become. However, as took one step
toward the door he reappeared, carrying
a lamp which cast curious shadow on
the wall.
"Come up stairs,'' he said quickly
"Harold is there. Step quietly" And
he led the way into a large room, which
struck me as the most uncomfortable
bedroom I ever entered. But instantly
my whole attention was fixed on slim,
boyish figure lying on the bed. fully
dressed, with the blood flowing from
deep wound in his left side.
For minute thought him already
dead, but he raised his head feebly as
we entered and whispered family:
"Guy, it was my fault. I struck you

Chilvers leaned over him and raised
him in his arms, so that the fair, curly
head rested ON his shoulder, and said;
