and Some Vegetables.
AS the general rise in the prices of
groceries this year over those of a year
ago has attracted a great deal of at
tention from housekeepers, some COM
parative figures may be found inter-
esting. The increased prices have been
very general especially on meats and
grain products, and has been exception
ally great, one hundred per cent, on
the Irish potato. While the price on
some commodities remains the same,
on only one, sugar, has there been a
decrease.

I find in a little book. 1.-THE Indian
and the Northwest" published in Chi
cago, this paragraph: Maj David e.
Twiggs. afterwards famous in the Civil
War established a garrison at Fort
Winnebago, in which he placed three
companies of soldiers. Jefferson Davis,
just graduated from West Point, was
one of his lieutSnants Maj. Twiggs
even at that time bore a hard reputa-
ton. One of his priyates, exasperated
by brutal treatment, had attempted TO
take his life on account of abuse re-
ceived and was put in irons for the Of
tense" Lieut.. Davis graduated In 1928.
and the following year was assigned
to duty with the First Infantry, of
which Twiggs was then major. / never
knew that Gen. Twiggs became fla
nous in the Civil War" He was Of
fered the commission OF major general
in the Confederate army, but ] think
he declined prolonged service on ac-
count of age and inflrmities. In July,
1861, he commanded Department No.
/, G. s. A." with rank of major gem
eral, having his headquarters in New
Orleans According TO the rule estab-
lished by the Confederacy in regard
TO officers resigning from the United
States army, he would have become the
ranking general of the Confederate
army. As 10 the ABOVE charge OF Dru-
tai treatment" Il is hardly consistent
with Gen. Twiggs' steady promotion
from major to lieutenant colonel and
colonel and brigadier general, and bre-
vet major general. Very likely he was
a strict disciplinarian In those early
days. and punished offenders without
gloves"
The death Of Gen. Daniel Butterfleid
OF New York, leaves me the sole sur
vivor of small party of officers that
held an important consultation in Gen.
Meade's headquarters at Gettysburg,
the Sunday after the battle. There
were present Gem Meade, Gen. Pleas

In many cases, even where the retail
prices show no change, the wholesalers
have been compelled to pay high
price for their goods. This is partic-
ularly true of canned tomatoes, and
dealers are able to sell them at the
quoted price only through having made
contracts for delivery ahead of time
Two pound tins, for instance, are now
quoted to retailers at 1874 cents doz-
en-. and 3-pound tins at 80 cents. The
phenomenal rise in the price of Irish
potatoes is accounted for by the very
short crop in most of the Southern and
Middle Eastern states.
on watermelons and peaches it is
hardly possible to quote prices, because
of the wide range of grades and conse-
ouent variation in selling price, but
with few exceptions all other vegeta-
bles. grown locally, have been higher,
because of scarcity caused by the long
drought in the spring.

Camp Finegan most of the time. we
have an obituary notice that states that
Corpl. Matthew B. Haskins was wound
ed in the right leg in a battle near
New Port. Fla, on March 6, 1855, and
died three days later at Lake city.
He was buried on the old homestead
hammock, under tree we had before
selected as his burial place. We have
a little pocket Bible he carried all
through the war" The last battles
fought in Florida were: Dunn's Lake,
in Volusia county, Feb. 5, 1865; at Ce-
dar Keys, on Feb. IS; at Fort Myers,
on Feb. 20; Gen. Sam Jones, G. ;, A,
surrendered at Tallahassee on May 10.
This does not include many small en-
gagements that took place. l find no
mention of New Port or Newport in
any official list of battles or engage
ments. Most of the battles in Florida
were during 1861 and 1864 the most
noted Ohustee, or Ocean Pont, being on
Feb. 20, 1864.
The final selection of place at the
navy yard to hold the Schiey court
martial seems to be Objectionable on
account of distance and lack of proper
facilities for reporters and other per-
sons interested. The Fitz John Porter
court-martial was a noted affair, and
1t was held in large room over liY-
cry stable on the cross street running
by Wizards hotel. and just out of
Pennsylvania avenue. The day
that General Mcclellan testi-
fed. so great was the GU
riosity to see Little Mac" the hall
was crowded and in the street and
square were some thousand people,
making 1t difficult to get in the court
room. Even the anti Mcclellan gen.
erals who composed the court brought
their wives and other female relatives
to the hall to see the then famous
young hero That was in war times,
and few officers were situated so that
they could attend the court, but in
these days of peace and plenty" the
Schley court of inquiry will be crowd
ed, and unless ample room is provided
there will be a great deal of newspaper
growling.l

KENNEDY JURY DIsAGREEs.
Third Time the Defendant Has Been
Tried for Murder.

The fury which tried DR.. Samuel ]. Ken
nedy for the murder of Dolly Reynolds.
in New York city, reported to Judge New
burger at 1925 o'clock yesterday morning,
that they were unable to agree on ver-
dict. The Judge at once discharged tho
jury from further service and remanded
the prisoner to the Tombs.
When the foreman of the jury announced
the inability to agree, DR.. Kennedy
seemed unable to comprehend the situation.
Then the tears came to his eyes, and his
face showed the effort he was making to
control himself and crush his disappont-
ment But the smile that had been marked
through most of the trial came back quick
ly and grew brighter as he caught the eye
of DR.. Moore. his attorney. Immediately
after the adjournment of the court the at
torneys for the defense saw Judge New
half of DR.. Kennedy. The Judge said that
they should District Attorney Philbin
as to whether he would agree upon the
course to be pursued. He said that he (the
tudge) would be out of town tomorrow,
but that they could appear before him on
Tuesday to make whatever motion they
desired
Mr.. Moore will ask District Attorney
Philbin to move the quashing of the indtct-
ment, and if the latter does not take this
step to free DR.. Kennedy Mr.. Moore him
the state has shown twice its inability to
convict his client Of the crime charged,
and that the old idea of two Disagreement
being equivalent to an acquittal ought to
prevail IN this case.
The jury stood eight to four for acquittal
