It is evident that the low
price in cotton is discouraging
to it's production as in many
places unpicked fields were to
be seen. The price now ranges
between 4 and 5 cents per
pound, while the actual cost of
production, notwithstanding
the cheap labor that is to be
had, is about 6h cents. Winter
wheat and corn is raised to
some extent i'm Alabama.'
The dining car service that
we have on northern railroads
lis not in vogue in the south,
and south from St. Louis we
experienced much incon-
venience on that account.
There are meal stations at
regular intervals, but these are
invariably on a small scale
and have accommodations for
only q hand full. When fifty
or sixty of us invaded one of
these places there was great
|commotion and if you got any
thing at all you were compelled
to resort to drastic. measures
help yourself to What was in
sight. At some places
objections we're raised to this,
but objections didn't go with
US. Several of the party

by ladies-had a supply Of

Aboard of q train on the

we entered Florida, the land of
flowers, songbirds and sun

day was spent enroute to
Tampa on the Bay, SO we had
la splendid opportunity to see
what was to be seen. By force
'of circumstances, the weather
was against US, and being mid
winter, flowers were rare and
songbirds not much in evil
idence, but when viewed at it's
best parts of Florida must
necessarily be beautiful.

The train was gliding along
a smooth track at the rate of
miles an hour when it
was whispered around that we
were near the Suwanee river
and would shortly cross the
stream. And here, sure enough,
was. the "Suwanee Ribber."

with trees bending over it's
bosom, all festoned with long
Spanish moss, which
so abounds in western regions
of Florida. Just how a river,
a narrow little sand bottomed
river, that plays so small part
in the map of the United States
as does the Suwanee, could
ever have become 80 famous
in this wide world, does seem
strange to one when he comes
to think of it, all because of a
mere song" It is small in

The fertile soil of the south

This soil with a little fertilizing

everything is raised to an ad-

All through the farm districts
the houses are generally very
poor and improvements scant
But occasionally we get a
glimpse of one of those large
aud beautiful southern homes,
built on the colonial style with
large pillars supporting two
story verandas, and surrounded
by inviting lawns and splendid
shade trees and orchards in full
bloom-peaches and pears and
all kinds of small fruit growing
in abundance. But there on

cabins, everywhere in evidence

built on the outside at one END

Err MATTERS.

Some excellent work has been accom-
plished by the management of the Bethel
Mission, on Twentieth street, among tina
INDECENT class of people of the city. 1t is
announced that the institution has been
re-arranged on more elaborate scope for
the work of the winter. The sleeping
quarters have been considerably enlarged,
provision having been made to afford
shelter to about fifty men at time. and
to accommodate each with comfortable
wire cot with furnishings. A large furnace
has been placed in the basement and the
apartments will be kept warm during the
cold weather. Before the improvements
were made only twenty men could be given
comfortable lodging quarters at the insti-
tuition. The employment Office in connec-
ton with the mission continues to do good
work. Through the efforts of those in
charge quite number of men without a
home and out of work have secured en-
ployment. The management will select a
janitor for the institution during the com .
ing week, the new arrangements necassi-
tatfng an official. At the mission a gos.,ei
meeting is held each evening. Services
are conducted in the morning and after
noon each Sunday.

OUT OF THE RACE.
s'CharIie'' Dannenberg Once More Flew the
Track, Last Evening.
Off agin,
On agin,
Gone agin,
IE,,v,s frsT1

There was a good deal of commotion
in local Republican political circles
about dusk last evening, when the news
was hurriedly circulated about that
Charlie Dannenberg had again re-
considered his determination to be a
candidate for Sheriff, and was definite
ly off the track.
While the news was extensively cir
culated some Of Mr.. Dannenberg's
closest friends, when Intercepted about
the matter, said they had not heard Of
the fact, and in one or two instances
refused to believe it. When they were
assured it was true, they said things.
Charlie could not be found, or he
would have been interviewed whether
he wanted to talk or not, and the i'm
possibility of getting hold of him robs
the item of some of its interest.
His declination leaves the fight be-
tween Messrs. Travis and Taylor, un-
less a new Richmond enters the field,
which is not impossible. If the fight
is confined to these two gentlemen it is
a question who will receive the active
support of the officials up around the
Court House and City Hall. They
would have been for Dannenberg had
he stuck, and the influence which pull
ed him off the track is a mysterious
one although potent. Doubtless the
facts will develop in a day or two.
