The Paterson, N. j., Daily Press con-
tains the following account of the death
of H. Julius Smith "a winter resident of
Rockledge, and a man well known in
Florida, especially the east coast section:
"H. Julius Smith, the most representa-
tive citizen of Pompton Lakes borough,
died at his residence on Wanaque avenne
about 30 O'Clock this morning, after an
illness dating only from Saturday, from
strangulated hernia. Mr.. Smith was
stricken suddenly i'll last week, and con-
tinued In a dangerous condition until
death relieved his satfeEing eaEly this
morning. He was az widely known in
Paterson as he was through the country
districts, and left wide circle of friends
here to mourn his demise.
"Mr. Smith was born in Bologna, N
Y, on May z, 1874, and from there
moved TO Boston, where he mastered the
trade of machinist. From Boston he
went TO Way ne. this state, where he re-
manned for fourteen years, going TO
Pompton about thirteen years ago. The
deceased served two terms as mayor of
Pompton Lakes borough, being the viii
lagos first and third executive. Mr..
Smith was prominently affiliated with
many lodges, both in Paterson and else
where. Recently he took his demit from
Paterson Orange lodge, this city, for the
purpose of becoming a charter member
Of SIlentia lodge, No. l6S, of Butler. Mr..
Smith was also a member of Cataract
City chapter, No. 10, Royal Arch Masons
and Melita commandery, No. Is, knights
Templar. The deceased was also a men,
ber of the Hamilton club. Mr.. Smith
was known extensively throughout the
country as an expert on explosives, be-
ing actively connected with the opera
tions about Hellgate some twenty years
ago, and having done other work in that
line for the government. In 1874 he in
vented the process of exploding fuses by
electricity, the former method for ex-
plosion being TO touch off the fuse and
then run away. He was also owner of
two extensive orange groves, comprising
one hundred acres, in Florida, and at

Hardy Orange Trees.

Prof. H. ]. Webber, of the government
department of agriculture, has been ex-
perimenting at Glen St. Mary with the
growing of oranges that may revolution
ize the whole industry.
New varieties of the citrus family are
planted in an orchard on the grounds of
q. l.. Taber, and it is from these trees
that the government hopes to get fruit
Of different kind from that ordinarily
raised in Florida. Should the fruit prove
equal in favor and quality, its cultivation
will be undertaken on a large scale. The
trees, it is claimed, will stand consider
ably more cold weather than other vari-
eties, and it is said that they will be
hardy enough even to be planted in Vir-
ginia. The grove at Glen st. Mary is re-
ported to be doing well. Orange growers
are naturally taking the greatest sort of
interest in the experiment.

Sheriff X. c. Howell, of Putnam coun-
ty, came here Saturday for the purpose
of carrying Randall McCan:ey, negro
refuge from Putnam county, back to Pa
latSa. This negro shot a colored woman
in Putnam county in February last, but
has evaded the authorities until now.
McCauley was captured by Sheriff Brown
Just this side Uf the Dade county line last
Friday and was forced TO make two trips
and do some clever work to secure his
man, as McCauley was very shy and ap-
prehensive. He started TO run when the
sheriff went TO arrest him as he was COM
ing toward him on hand car, McCauley
having just crossed the st. Lucie river
bridge at Stuart, but the section master
he was working for called to him that he
had better not run, and acting upon that
advice saved him from being shot. As
soon as Sheriff Howell met McCauley he
wanted to know If the woman he shot
had died. 1t seems that she has fingered
ever since from the effects of the wound
inflicted by MeCauley, and the negro
was afraid that the woman had died,
which would make his case amenable to
the death penalty. Sheriff Howell left
with his prisoner Sunday afternoon.

Baseball In TitusyiIle.

The Titusville baseball club has added
two more victories 70 its belt the past
week, one on Friday last with the Eau
Gallie nine. and one Wednesday with the
Cocoa club. We admire the pluck of the
boys down the river, they are true sports,
for il is patent fact that both of these
clubs are outelassed when they cross bats
with our home nine. The Eau Gallies
and the COcoas played good games and
the score for Titusvile both times was
due to their ability to hit the ball, while
the visiting clubs failed at the bat.
In the game last Friday Rurnham Nor
wood did nearly all the pitching for Eau
Gallie with Cozart doing most effective
work behind the bat, but although Burn.
ham sent cannon balls the home players
found them and drove them away for
safe base and two base hits. Joe Dukes
for the Eau Gallies and johnson for Ti-
tusvilles each made several brilliant
catches of left field flies. Henry Hop
kIns, aside from his fine pitching for Ti-
tusville, made a brilliant assist at first
base in third inning. The score for this
game was, Ttusville l6, Eau Gallie 6.
Before leaving on the steamer Spartan
that night the Eau Gallies expressed
their sympathy for the Cocoas when they
came up here this week. This was a
compliment that the home boys thor
oughly appreciated.
In the contest Wednesday Smith, the
new pitcher for the COcoas, did some
very good work, while Willahan, in the
box for Ttusville, pitched an excellent
game. The visitors couldn't hit his
straight puts to advantage. If he could
only get little curve on them he would
be immense. Titus caught both the
games in first class style, and deserves a
great deal of credit for the interest and
hard work he puts up. Bryan, catcher
for the COcoas, does excellent work be-
hind the bat and uses good judgment
DIR. Rollins umpired botn games TO the
entire satisfaction of all the clubs. We
are going to see that he is highly recon-
mended to the league for professional
next year if Capt. Buie don't get in
ahead of him (?)
Titusville has sustained only one defeat
so far this season. That was the game
Sanford purloined away from them a few
weeks ago. If the boys 20 up against st.
Augustine next week their chances may
be slim for success, but we admire their
pluck and our best wishes go with them.

DOGS vs. SHEEP.

The Lime Rock correspondent of the Lakeville Journal of November 9th says: Dogs killed 22 sheep belonging to Belcher sisters during Sunday night and more Tuesday night. It is get ting to be 8 difficult matter to keep aocks in this section on account of the numerous wandering canines. Evi- dently there is still need Of more dog laws than at present.
 The editor of the Journal gives the following version of the affair: Last Sunday night couple of worthless CUTS got into the large flock of sheep belonging to the Beloher sisters on the Lime Rock road and before they were discovered they had bitten and badly wounded forty sheep, the most of them so badly that it was necessary to kill them. The owners of the dogs are not known. The next night one of the dogs returned to put the finish to his work, but bullet soon put an end to his miserable existence.
