attendance of 800. This number in the
course of a few days will be augmented
to 400, as many of the cadets are still
at home endeavoring TO recuperate after

fair 10 be the most prosperous of all in
the existence of the school. A splendid
gymnasium will, in the course of a few
weeks be set up by a Spalding expert in
the large gymnasium hall of the school,
which has formerly been used as the eX-
ercising hall of the physical culture class.
This gymnasium has been donated to the
school by the enterprising citizens of the
town.
The gymnasium is opened to both sexes,
the young ladies having excess to the hall
during the drill period and the cadets af-
ter retreat"
The literary societies will also be re-
organized and will probably be conducted
on principles which are new, but bid fair
to bring out the latent talents of the ca
diets in the sphere of oratory.

Columbia, S. c., Jan. s.--The South Car
DINA law against emigrant agents oper-
ating in the state has been applied in
cases the authors of the act never con-
templated.
The act was passed several years ago,
and was to check the operations in this
state of the famous emigrant agent Peg
Leg Williams as he was called who car
ried negroes away from the state by the
train load to Arkansas, Mississippi and
Texas.
The law requires that agents must have
a license before attempting to persuade
people to leave the state and the license
costs $500 in each county from which en-
igrants are drawn The constitutionality
of the law has never been tested, but it
stopped emigration of negroes from South
Carolina.
Two weeks ago Thomas s. Prev and
F. H Richardson, registering from Bcs-
ton, and representing cotton manufactur-
ing interests in Rhode Island, arrived in

AT ALTAMONTE SPRINGS.
About Winter Residents-Enect of
the Recent Cold.

Altamonte Springs. Fla, Jan. S.-The
death of Hon. Charles E. Currier. the
largest owner of the big winter hotel. at
his home in Boston, so complicated af-
fairs that the hotel is not opened this
season. The prospect, therefore, for the
usual crowd OF visitors looked gloomy for
a time, but now the Clouds have rolled
away" and things are looking brighter.
Mr.. Henry Green. wealthy resident of
Cambridge, Mass, has purchase the ele-
giant two-story cottage owned by the n.
j. Bradlee estate, and called The White
House." in later years, as Mrs. Gen. u
S. Grant occupied it one winter and Miss
Rose Elizabeth Cleveland the next season.
Mr. Max Marx of New York another
gentleman of wealth, has purchased two
fine orange groves here and the Westing-
house family will come here for the win
ter and occupy their handsome residence.
Hon. George Frost, the wealthy Boston
manufacturer, is already in his beautiful
home, but his amiable wife died suddenly
just as they were starting for Florida.
Some of the most valuable and attrac-
tive property near the hotel is owned by
the wife of Bishop H. b Whipple, who
is quite wealthy, and like the other rich
property owners, she feels an interest in
keeping her grove and park in good or
der, although her winter home is in Matt
land.
Here, as throughout all this section of
Florida the recent freezes have destroyed
all the tender vines and plants not cover
ed, as also young lemon shoots, some
orange shoots and all banana and guava
growth. II seems clear that We shall have
no more bananas or guavas unless from
protected plants. Some persons have al
ready started the plan of sheds over qua
vas, the same as over pineapples, claim
ing that it will pay a good profit Now
it is safe to say that Florida is losing ST.
900 or more yearly on account of the
constant killing back of the plants by Sc
we're cold snaps. Only in the extreme
southern part of the state can guaVas be
ripened in the open air since the change
in our climate.
