Chipley's corn exhibit.
Charley Pinkert has been engaged
in the novel idea of rabbit farming
for the past two or three years and
finds it profitable. His stock has
grown from a single pair to twenty
or more, and he has sold great
many besides. The Belgian hare is
the species raised, and often grows to
weigh fifteen pounds. Friday he was
increasing the size of his farm by
building an addition to the already
large wire coop in the back of his
yard.-Tampa Tribune.
The governor has sent letter to
the sheriff urging him to renewed
faithfulness in enforcing the game
and fishery laws. All the fish in this
county are owned by private individ-
uals, and, of course, they have a right
to do what they please with them.
The deer and turkeys have all been
killed, and consequently the sheriff
has nothing to do but to look after
two or three dozen cartridges and
keep the hawks off them until they
get ripe and then bag them for him
self.-Jasper News.
A dispatch from Miami says a large
Cuban expedition got off last Friday
afternoon between Miami and Carri
ford's reef. Capt. William Lewis was
in command. A large quantity of
arms and ammunition and a ton or
so of dynamite are on board, and sew
eral American volunteers for the in
surgent army. The name of the
steamer is not yet known at Miami.
She is said to be slow, however, and
not able to get away from a gunboat,
if pursued. Capt. Lewis was in COM
mand of the steamer Three Friends
when that vessel exchanged shots
with the Spanish cruiser. He is per-
fectly familiar with Cuban waters.
Representative Sparkman, of Flor
ida, last week introduced a number
of bills, the most important being one
for the establishment of a fish hatch
cry in Florida; one granting lands for
the use of the normal schools at De-
Funiak Springs and Tallahassee; and
pensioning the surviving soldiers of
the Florida Indian wars of 1856, 1857,
and 1858; one for the erection of a
public building at Tampa; one au-
thorizing the secretary of the treas
ury to settle the mutual account be-
tween Florida and the government;
and one for the relief of F. j. Moreno,
late marshal for the southern district.
< j. w. Seaman, writing to the ST.
Andrews Buoy, about the now eX-
tinct Florida town ST. Joseph, on the
Gulf coast, says: "From all accounts
accessible, the town seems to have
been started in 1880, and was at it's
best in 1870, in which year it was Wis
tied by tidal wave and partly de-
stroyed. At tits time it is supposed
to have been a town of 5000 or 5000
inhabitants. In 1843 and 1914 this
memorial town was visited by vel
low fever epidemic, which was
brought to the town by vessels car
rying fruit from the West Indies
Over half of the inhabitants persisted,
and those that escaped the plague

In the southern counties the annual
cattle drive from the interiar towards
the coast is now in progress, and
thousands of cattle are moving. They
are in much better condition than
they were last year at the time of the
drive.
One hundred acres of strawberries
are now growing around Lakeland,
and the estimated yield is 1900 quarts
per acre, which, at fair price for
the fruit, means net sum of about
$4,000 that will be brought into
Lakeland alone. The tobacco indus
try is also growing in that section.
There is blockade of freight room
such as was never known here before.
Every available track within miles of
this port is packed with loaded cars
of phosphate, lumber, ties, jetty rock,
wood, etc. If this business keeps up
it will be necessary for the F. C. & ?.
to build a double track into Fernan-
dina from Yulee.-Fernandina Mirror.
Vegetable shipments are reported
to be very heavy out of the state at
present, and strawberries are also 60
ing forward in large quantities. "A
resident of Plant City said Friday
hot in 1,iC ho1
the greater part of his strawberry
crop at prices ranging from ST to
$3.50 per quart. Prices are now likely
to take a drop, however, as the ber-
ries from more northern sections are
rapidly coming into market.

The Docket is Clear for the First Time IN
Many Years.
The supreme court, after delivering
decisions in twenty three cases and dis
posing of all cases on the docket except
one, adjourned Wednesday until the Oc-
tCber term, which will begin on the first
Monday in October The docket will
not be called until the second Monday
in October.
This is the first time The docket has
been cleared in many years. Since the
three new justices came on the bench
the court has been working very hard
and sitting in two divisions when prac-
ticable, in order to clear the docket.
They have just succeeded in doing so,
and for the next two months will devote
themselves to writing out op Mons in
cases which have been decided. This is
a heavy task and it will be all the JUS
tees can do to get through before the
term begins. The position of a Justice
of the supreme court is not siuecure.

Is death in the embrace Of love, and the
first touch Of babyhngers is succeeded by
the chilly grasp of the grim destroyer
If wives and mothers would only resort
70 the right remedy when they suffer from
weakness and disease of the delicate and
important feminine organs that are babys
threshold to life, there would be fewer hus-
bands bereft, and fewer homes saddened
by an infants loss Or. PierCe's FavOrite
Prescription makes the feminine organs
strong, healthy and vigorous, It fits for
wifehood and motherhood. 1t banishes the
maladies of the period of suspense, and
makes babys entry to tEe world easy and
comparatively painless. An honest drug
gist will not try TO induce a customer to
take an inferior substitute for this great
remedy for the sake Of extra profit
Mrs. Seagle was great sufferer from a COM
bination of female diseases, a few years ago from
which she has been entirely cured by the use of
DR. Pierces Favorite Prescription" writes Geo.
A. Seagle, ESQ. Of Box 1870, Wythevlle Va. She
is thoroughly convinced that there is no medi,
cine on earth equal TO he FavOTi e Prescription
and she doesn't hesitate 70 say so. She has rec
commended it to her lady friends, and in all cases,
where it has been given fair trial, it has given
entire satisfaction"
In cases of constipation and torpid liver,
no remedy is equal to Dr. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets. They regulate and invigorate the
stomach, liver and bowels. They never fail

The farmer on whose place the erun-
ton is in progress has tried in vain +o
subdue it and has set force of hands at
work digging around the spot with a
view to ascertaining the causes of tbe
strange appearance.
The crater is about 25 feet square, and
in i've places blue smoke can be seen is
suing from the ground.
The ground about the crater has sunk
about 10 inches below the level. It fs
said to be sinking gradually and the era

Some of these reports come from =
