She Is Wide Awake.

The Florence Times says: THE world
do move and it cuts some queer ospers
in Charleston. A few yeats ago there
was dreadful vail down there against
the introduction Of the trolley and now
prestol a company that asks tho right
to run cars through certain of its streets
has to swear that it will not under any
circumstances use horses "a m otive
power or the right will not be granted.
Possibly Charleston is afraid that horses
will drag her back toto the old quiet
ways. But what are th1 newly pro-
gressive citizens going to do with that
alderman who wants to put the embsr-
go sutomobiles2" This only shows that
the old oity is now wide awake and
pronosea To STAY so.

Florida's Cattle Famine.

According to the Jacksonville papers
serious condition confronts the cattle
industry in Florida. 1t has recently
developed that the remarkable demand
for beef and dairy cattle in Cuba has
about stripped Florils of her sup
ply Of those snin als-especially Of
the better grades. 1t seems that
the island was completely deplsted Of
ca tie by tha various arm es during the
long war psIiod and every range and
farm is nov getting back it's stock as
fast as it can procure the cattle. Many
ars consumed as fast as they arrive
while the better bred AMI mails are pre-
served for breeding purposes. Florida s
ranches have been drawn on very he avi-
ly to meet this demand, aud the result
ha, become very motto liable.
