HE0UAL TO THE EMERdENcY.

There is no adjective too strong to
apply to the Jacksonville fire horror. It
seems difficult indeed to find any redeem
Fng'feature to the indescribable catastro.
pne"hich has laid waste the largest and
;~Ialrest city of the State. But if FIorid-
,aans are seeking some consoling feature
TO the disaster which has been sc pro-
~Eouctlve of grief to the whole people.
HE EALLAEAssEEAN would direct their
attention tothe handsome and exceed
1Angly creditable manner in which the
distinguished gentleman who is now
Governor of Florida has measured I'D to
every requirement. of this awful emerg-
ency.
From positive 'and nindeniable infor-
nation it can be stated that since the
news Of the confiagration of last Friday
reached Tallahassee, Governor Jennings
mas shown devotedness and an untiring
energy in rendering all possible assist
ance to the fire sufferers such as could
mot be surpassed by any living man. In
Ibis efforts to keep perfectly posted as to
2 si1e actual condition and the needs of
'.toe distressed people in the States me-
~1opolls, the Governor has displayed and
exercised remarkable executive ability,
most admirable judgment and single
ness of purpose which must forever en-
dear him to all the people of Florida.
Tremendous as are their sufferings
and their causes of sorrow, we would
EGay'te the people of Jacksonville that
!8ney are to be congratulated upon hav-
ing as Governor of our common State
lone who possesses both the spirit and
"a ability to relieve their unfortunate con-
. aitien to the utmost extent open to any
mortal Occupying the chief executive
office of this great State.
The separate acts taken by Governor
Jennings to relieve the unprecedented
and terrible suffering recently existing
in Jacksonville are too numerous to be
nere detailed, but wlea tie present
trouble passes over and opportunity for
review and reflection remedial efforts
is presented, the course of Governor
Jennings will shine out as the great
pleasing feature of an unspeakably hor-
.rible blow to the people of Jacksonville
land of Florida.

one day stalking black buck. Be
tween me and my quarry lay a large
fat field Of black cotton soil bordered
by very low, struggling and thinly

My only way to get shot was to cross
this, keeping the bushiest tree between
me and the buck, who had not much
to browse on and was therefore seldom
motionless. proceeded to do the hum

This on loose. hard baked black cotton

muzzle was near my knee, would pass

The spider is not an insect, though
probably nine people out of ten would
class it under this term. With scor-
pions and mites spiders form a class In
the animal kingdom known as Arach-
nida. This name is derived from q
mythical parsonage called Arachne.

who: was tabled to have challenged
Minerva to trial of skill in spinning.
So indignant was the goddess at this
act of boldness that she forthwith
transformed the hapless challenger
into spider, presumably in order that
she might have the best possible Op-
pOrtunity of practicing the art on
which she prided herself so much.
Spiders differ from insects in five
main particulars. Their eyes are SIM
pie instead of compound, they have
eight legs in place of six. they do not
pass through the metamOrphOses
which are characteristic Of insects.
they have no antennR and their
breathing is accomplished by means Of
organs which combine the functions Of
lungs and gills, instead of by tubes
pervading their bodies. These points
Of distinction are sufficient to deter
mine the fact that It is impossible to
class spiders as insects.
