Scarlet Fever Ia Abating-Long sta
pie Cotton Coming in Slowly.
GAINESVILLE. Fla. Oct. S.-For several
months past scarlet fever and diphthe-
ria have been soaring the citizens of
Gainesville. 1t is a fact that several
cases developed here, and it is also
a fact that both diseases proved of a
very mild type. Only two deaths re-
suited during the entire reign OF the
disease. 1t is gratifying to report that
the diseases have about succumbed to
medical skill and there are but one or
two cases left, and these are improv-
ing. At present the health of Gaines
vile is good. and physicians report
business falling off.
There is a diversity of opinion re-
garding the cotton crop. Some farmers
claim the crop has been damaged
about half, while others claim it will
be as good as last year. At any rate,
the crop is not being brought TO
Gainesville as rapidly as it was at this
season last. year. The ginneries all
over the county are running on short
time, with the hope that more staple
will come in later. AS regards the
price no definite figures have as yet
been settled upon, and the price ranges

of good quality. however.
The Board of County Commission

The report of W. D. Dickinson.

license tax. This is more than half of
the total number in the county. and
shows that the merchants are able to
keep the ball rolling.

BIG DEAL IN FLORIDA TIMBER.
Iowa Men Buy j. A. Graham's Cy-
press Lands for $3.50 900.

Tallahassee. Fla. Oct. s.--The largest
and most important lumber and timber
deal made in this section Of the coun-
try has just been contaminated. Mr..
John A. Graham, president and owner
OF the Graham Cypress Company, at
st. Marks, Fla, has just completed the
sale of the saw mill. logging railroad
and cypress timber belonging to his
company, to William L. Roach, and as
sociates, of Muscatine, la. The exact
figures embraced in this deal have not
been ascertained. but it is understood
that the purchase price paid by Mr..
Roach for the saw mill and cypress
timber, is something over s35o.OOO. This
timber deal includes 160. 900 600 feet of
the best cypress timber in the Gulf
states. The experts who have gone
over this land estimate that the
entire tract will cut over fifty
thousand feet per acre Of merehantable
timber. Mr.. Graham selected and
purchased thes lands more than ten
years ago, and thus early evidenced
his faith in the ultimate value of cy-
press timber. 1t is understood that
Mr., Roach and his associates will en-
large the present plant to capacity
of twenty-five million feet of lumber.
and eighty million shingles per year.
Mr.. Roach and his associates are
among the largest lumber manufactur-
ers and dealers in the Northwest, and
their investing on such large scale
in this section means much to the in
dustrial progress OF the state in gen.
eral and this locality in particular. Mr..
+. S. Harrison, the representative Of
Mr.. Roach, has taken charge of the
properties and expects to have the en-
tire plant in full operation within the
next sixty days.
1t is understood that Florida will not
lose Mr.. Graham through this trans
action. but that he inteads to devote
his entire time to the development of
his large timber interests in this sec
ton of Florida

sTERNBERG on PHILIPPINES.
MsIariaI Conditions Not So Serious
as He Had Expected.

washington. Oct. s.-Surgeon Cen
erai sternberg resumed his duties at
the War Department to-day after an
absence of several months spent in an
inspection of the medical department
OF the army in the Philippines. In re-
gard to his visit he said:
II found the health condition very
satisfactory. / was very much sur
prised to find that in the lowlands
which are devoted to rice culture, there
is comparatively little malarial
fever. Similar localities in our own
Southern states are very much more
unhealthful Malarial fevers-are some
what more prevalent at higher Levels
but the submits of the mountain
ranges are as a rule quite healthful.
Typhoid fever is not as prevalent
as IL is In most parts Of the United
States. and the mortality from that dis
ease in the Philippines has been much
less than II was in our camps in the
United States during the Spanish
American war. Dysentery is the most
serious disease with which we have to
contend Pulmonary consumption is
quite prevalent and a considerable
number Of cases have developed among
our own soldiers"

Decare There Is a Sure
Cure for Nervous
Ailments.
Use of Paine'S Celery Is
Openly Advised.
Wonderful Results Recently
Effected by Compound.

Buffalo. Oct. s, 1901.-An evening
paper publishes a symposium of ply
sicians' opinions regarding the efficacy
OF various remedies for the cure of
nervous prostration and attendant ills.
Each physician was asked to express
his opinion, first, whether those dis
eases We're durable when once they had
gained hold upon the patient, and.
second, whether the same remedy
would be beneficial in all cases.
Without exception, the physicians in
terviewed declared that nervous pros
tration, when not too far advanced, in
somnia, rheumatism, indigestion, result
ing. as it most frequently does, from
deranged nerves. dizzy headaches, and
most liver and kidney complaints,
were absolutely durable.
But the answer to the second ques-
ton was most remarkable, because,
with two exceptions. all the doctors
mentioned by name Paine's celery COM
pound, a well known remedy, manu-
featured by Wells & Richardson Co,
of Burlington, VT, and first discovered
by the eminent DIR. Edward Phelps,
some years ago, after a thorough in
vestigation and the accumulation of a
great deal of data, both here and in
Germany.
1t is probably the one instance, says
the newspaper, where a prepared re-
medy has been openly Endorsed by ply
sicians Of such standing. 1t seems that
the formula of the compound has al
ways been furnished to physicians in
regular standing. and that the remedy
Is generally prescribed by up-to-date
practitioners both here and in Eng
land and Germany, where IL is quite
as well known as in this country.
Many wonderful cures by the use
Of this famous compound are cited, one
of them the well known case OF Com
modore Howell of Washington.

GOULD AND the PENNSYLVANIA.
Former Gets Into Pfttsburg and the
Latter Gets Norfolk and Western.

Philadelphia. Oct. s.-The North
American tomorrow will publish
railroad article to the effect that the
Pennsylvania Railroad. which the ar
ticle says. has been opposing the efforts
of the Wabash TO gain an entrance into
Pittsburg. has withdrawn its opposi-
ton and that the Wabash will now
be able TO get terminal in that city.
The article goes on to say that George
j. Gould recently secured control of
the Norfolk and Western Railroad
from the Pennsylvania for the purpose
Of furtherinz his efforts in gaining a
foothold in Pittsburg. The Pennsyl-
vania wanted to get complete control
OF the Norfolk and Western. but the
Gould interests would not sell until the
Pennsylvania people consented 10 with
draw their opposition 10 the Wabash
project. This, the North American
says, the Pennsylvania agreed to do
and George Gould sold the control of
the Norfolk and Western to the Penn
sylvania at a profit.
The article says that the matter of
seaboard outlet for the Wabash
system is still an open question, but
that the big gap between Pittsburg
and the Atlantic coast has been part
ly closed by the Gould interests secur-
ing control Of the Western Maryland

The door opened and a dark-eyed lit

trembling lips burst into the room.
"Rosie!"
The intruder sank into the nearest
chair, and covering her face with her
hands broke into a storm of tears.
Georgia went and stood beside her
