We have had two spells of cold
weather. just going through the Sec
ond now,-34 this morning. Mac has
a little sharpe q feet long and about
? feet wide. She is very pretty and
sails exceedingly well, draws only IA
inches and comes up to my whraf in
ordinary tide, has a good cabin and
accom- odates six nicely and more if
necessary. The party have done some
dpck shooting and great deal of fish
ing, going over to the pass aud getting
30 or 40 fish at time. Yesterday
Mac and Burgess with native and
dogs struck out into the woods for a
hunt. They went up the creek and out
about four miles they found an otter
and captured it, then they were startl-
ed by the terrific baying of the hounds
and one of the dogs came out of the
thick palmetto with his shoulder torn
open, followed by a huge boar. On
seeing the party he charged straight
for them, tusks shining and eyes such
as only Wild boar can show. How
ever he wroke up the tourists thoroa-
ghly and rolled over dead at Their.
feet. just al dark they came horae
tired, Mac and Burgess each with a
quarter of the boar on their respective
shoulders, having packed it something
over four miles. 1t was very fat and
the meat was1excellent having a pecul-
lar nutty flavor and tasting more like
venison than pork. They have had
some fine grouper fishing, catching
red grouper of about 14tb weight.
They have1caught at the Pass several
hundred sheep'shead, weighing from
two to five pounds, channel Bass,
sea trout andsother varities. They are
to day fitting up for a trip to the My
aka and expect a crop of fish at Little
Gasparill and at Boca Grande, Oys-
tiers at Cape Haze and no end of ducks
on Charlotte Harbor. They have gath
cred lots of shells, and seem to be hav-
ing a royal good time. The only re-
greet is that you are not here

Club Notes.
On Wednesday afternoon the first
Lowell meeting was held, it having
been Very stormy weather the previous
week SO that there was no Meeting. In
the absence of the president and vice
president Mrs. Tatum presided over
the meeting. Mrs. Eugene Morse was
secretary and Mrs. Blanchard acted
as critic. A program was made out
for the mothers nesting next Wednes-
day but the secretary is unable to find
it.
The president has itin her possession,
so we will have to make it miscel-
laneous meeting, and ask each member
to take the responsibility of making
the meeting as interesting as possible.
We hope every member will come with
something good. The secretary of
the nationalN mothers congress has
said that they can not furnish the re
ports that we hope'to make a study of
during the year for less than s35c. un-
less 20 are ordered. There are nine new
names on the second order and we
hope those wanting them will let the
club members know asaunce.
The first Saturday in March is the
county mothers meeting from to
o'clock in the afternoon.
We hope that all the ladies who can
be in the city on that day will finish
their shopping early, and come up
over the bank that we may as Sis
tiers learn of each other concerning
matters'pertaining to motherhood.

OBITUARY.

Eula, aged three years, and fi7s
months, only daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs c. E. Harvey, died at their home
in Lincoln township, Monday, Febru-
airy Ia, 1898. She was born Septem-
Der IA, 1894. The Borrowing parents
have the heartfelt sympathy of the
entire community. She was the pet
of the neighborho cd.
The funeral services were held at
Hopewell church, conducted by Rev.
Bond, after which the casket, sur
rounded by large company of
Mourning friends, was placed in a
grave in Prattsburg cemetery, near
the Harvey homestead where the
eyes of the little maiden first saw-eSlie
light of day.
S Little Eula was sick only for a
short time before she died. Her death
came as a sorrowful surprise to the
neighborhood in which she lived, and
especially SO, to the grief-stricken
parents.
4 She had such sunny, lovable; dis
position that to know her was to love
her. Young as she was. and short as
her life has been, she possessed the
subtle power of drawing hearts to her
self, and she came as a little sunbeam
into the lives of all those who learned
to- know her. May the Great Cody
who knowssh best bind up the broken
spirits and heal the wounded hearts Of
the mourning ones, Amen. 49,.

They were in great haste for some

With woman's wit. however. she rose
to meet the emergency. With the aid
of a woman and hired man she filed
an enormous kettle full of water and
placed II over The fire to boil. so that

There was a store not far of. and
