OBITUARY.-Near the hour OF
noon on the sixth of February the
Angel Of Death visited the home of
Mr.. Sanford Ramey and robbed it
of one OF Its sweetest treasures by
summoning the spirit of their in
fant son, Bruce Robinson, to quit
this world of mortal toll and aoar
to that land where there is neither
sickness, pain nor death.
Little Bruce was only four
months and twenty days old when
that dreadful disease croupous
pneumonia claimed him as its
victim and our Heavenly Father
called him to pay the debt Of ma
ture We all, sooner or later, must
needs pay.
Dear parents and sister, think
not your darling 10 lost to you for
ever, but that he is only gone before
to home Of peace and rest, and
when your summons comes it will
be more welcome because your
loved one is waiting to welcome
you there, where there is no more
separations and no farewells are
spoken, for
In this broad field of sin and pain
We only part to meet again,
But when we reach the Heavenly
shore
There we meet to part no more.
S. BIC.

FROM THE SoUTH.-Bartow, Flor
ida, Feby. u, ls9S.-Dear OUTLOOK
My apology for this letter is your
interest in every true Kentuckian
and especially In every Owingsvil-
liam.
I am writing from the hospitable
home Of one Of the biggest and best
Kentuckians I know,-Jim Boyd, of
Barlow. He was plain "Jim" at
home, and would probably be plain
"Jim" there yet, for "a prophet is
not without honor save in his own
country" But lucky star brought
Jim to Florida, and he is now "Col.
Boyd" Chief Tax Collector of Polk
County, and Past Grand Master of
the Grand Lodge Of Free and Ac-
cepted Masons of the State of Florida,
and other good things. You see what
a Kentuckian can do when he has q
fair chance with other folks, away
from home. There is only one finer
Kentuckian hereabouts than "Col.
Boyd" and that is "Miss Bunch,"
who made a man of "Jim" out Of q
poor rebel soldier. So you can see
what the right kind Of woman can
do with even a "Kentucky Colon
ell" 1 need not say they "live at
home,"-a regular, genuine "Old
Kentucky home, ,'-"way down here
on the Suwanee River" 1t is tho
"house of plenty" and comfort, and
and children and grand
children, full of good cheer and good
things. No home on the waters Of
Slate or Flat Creek has more Of hos
pitality,-and that Is saying q great
deal.
Polk is one of the richest counties
in Florida, and Col. Jim handles all
its money, and has done 1t for years.
They can't beat him. He learned to
run In the army, and these Crackers
cant head him at all.
Barlow is a beautiful little city, in
as pretty a country as ever a crow
few over, with all kinds of churches,
and two institutions of learning, the
pride of the State. We call them "col-
leges" in Kentucky. And the chill
dren therei They are thick as grass
hoppers in August, = barefocted,
noisy, rosy and happy. God seems
to have made Florida for oranges
and children, and old people and sick
people and lazy people.
You can work every day In the
year II you want to, or only half the
time if you are tired, aud eat oranges

It has been a privilege and pleasure.

I need not say that Jim and "Miss

In some lines of trade goods can
be bought as cheaply at retail here
as anywhere. A striking need is
for a progressive grocery house
that will put goods down as low as
they can be bought in any of the

then be liberal in advertising in q

Such a progressive policy on the

COURT DAY.-Monday was q fine,
bright, spring day, though q bit
chilly without enough activity to
keep the blood circulating freely.
Farming operations served to keep

together, it was very good Court
day for general business.
There was not as much anima-
ton in the cattle trade as last
Court day, though the 200 head
of sred mostly sold at good prices.
What few shoats were on the mar
ket sold we'll at much better prices
than last market day. There was q
better feeling in the horse trade
and what few sold brought about a
80 per cent. advance over one month
ago. Several fancy. horse buyers
from q distance were here, but the
objects of their quest are a very
scarce article. Some mules we're
offered, but there were no buyers.
The merchandise business was
fair to very good. A few, that are
sufficiently up to date to put their
goods at attractive prices and in
vite the peoples trade by means of
an ad. in a newspaper that circu.
lates and is generally read through
mt the terrItorv trihutarv Tn thie
town, had a big and satisfactory
business. 1t Is remarkable that
merchants depending upon the pub
lie for a living should so blindly
neglect their plain interests in Civ
ing proper publicity to their desires
in q trade way. However, their
purblind business policy Furnishes
themselves, which would not be far
out of the way except that 1t has a
general depressing effect on the

TOBACCO kEPORf.- EXPRESSLY
FOR The OUTLOOK BIZ j. s. PHELPS 4
Co., PLANTERS WAREHoUsE.-Lou-
|isville, March IL, 1898.-Receipts
for the week, 1,78S hhds. Sales for
the week, 3,519 hhds., divided as
follows: 351 hhds. Of Old Burley,
800 hhds. New Burley, 497 Old
dark and Ill New Dark.
We think we can safely report
the most satisfactory week of the
year in our tobacco market; with
the single exception of common old
funked Burleys, which have been
offered rather too freely of late, all
grades and kinds have sold at out
side figures.
Good and fine red tobacco and
the common to medium bright to-
baccos have scored q decided ad-
vance, and sales Of these kinds,
quality considered, have been the
best Of the year.
Receipts continue light, in the
face of high prices, and it begins
to look as If the 60 per cent. esti-
mate Of the crop would be much
nearer it's actual size than the 75
per cent. guess.
Medium Old Burleys, when In
sweet condition, have met with bet
ter competition this week, and
prices of these grades up to eleven
cents have been generally satisfac-
tory. Good to fine Old Burleys have
not been offered on the breaks, ow-
ing to the lack Of demand for this
kind. As stated above, We think the
common funked Burleys, selling
between five and q half and seven
cents, are from one half to three
quarters Of Q cent easier.
