GOOD BUSINESS IN SNAKES.

Kissimmee Valley Gazette: Jack
Hancock. his son Will and John La
nier. Isaac Lanier's son. returned a few
weeks ago from a successful and hard
worked hunt, says the Kissimmee Val
ley Gazette. They went down the river
as far as Shell Hammock, and up Cat
fish creek to the first bluff, bringing
back with them 365 fine snake skins,
$50 alligator "pealings" srom eleven
feet down. and about thirty small and
lively young gators. These will be
added to Mr.. Hancock's present col
lection and further added to, till he
expects to have at least 100 live gator
weanlings for the winter tourist sea-
son; it being no trouble to rear them
in his tanks, which have clear, running
artesian water passing through them
continually. During his last trip Mr..
Hancock killed 344 snakes of all kinds,
and he will not be satisfied till he has
completed the full thousand he needs,
He has found out and perfected him
self a method of curing and tanning
snake skins so as to leave unaltered
the natural colors, producing per
fectly soft and pliable leather covered
with beautiful markings, which are
brighter and more clearly defined
than in the live snake. The COM
parison between skins he has treated
and samples of others sent to him
by Northern buyers is ridiculously in
his favor the result being that he can
dispose at once of any number of skins
he can cure. The late dry weather
in some ways assisted him greatly, for
snakes collected in large numbers
about water holes, though, he says,
every year at this time when they
have deposited their eggs they are in
clined to bunch together. and conse-
quently this is the time to hunt them.

September oats Nc higher. Provisions

his speech of acceptance or rather, es-

nomination of Governor was a fair
election in spite of his published let
tiers to Col. Estill that he knew of
many Irregularities. If he had stopped
by saying that 1t was as fair as usual
no one would have noticed ii, and I'M

PEACH GROWING IN FLORIDA.

Times Union and Citizen: After mis-
fortune overlook the orange growers in
1895 many of them living in the ''debat-
other horticultural staples which would
be less precarious than the orange is,
above certain ATTITUDES, without pro-
lection, and melons, cantaloupes, let
tuce, strawberries, celery, Irish pota-
toes and peaches are the principal
crops that have been subjected to ex-
perimental culture in Central Florida.
1t may be safely stated that in GER
tain localities and under correct Gull
ture, each of the abovenamed horticul-
tural standbys has proven successful
and remunerative. 1t may seem lit
tie singular that the two most recent
successes are two staples with which
the race has been familiar for hundreds
OF years-Irish potatoes and peaches.
Both of these are natives of hot CHI
mates, but have been grown so long
in the North that When brought down
to Florida they have to be acclimated
over again. 1t has almost been neces-
sary to recreate the peach family in or
der to develop varieties adapted to this
latitude. hence there is abundant ex-
cuse for the long time it has taken
Florida horticulturalists to establish
the peach on a commercial basis. The
vast deforestation which is going Oil
under the numbering and turpentining
operations offers tempting opportuni-
ties to orchard planting. The proprie-
tors of the Jacksonville and Southwest
ern Railroad. among others, have not
failed to perceive this opening. COM
pany has been chartered, consisting of
two members of the Griffing Brothers
Company and Waldo GUNNER
called the Griffing Florida Or
chard Company. The orchard will
be situated at Kokomo, on the
Jacksonville and Southwestern
Railroad, twenty miles south of Ala
chua. in Alachua county, north of
Gainesville. They will plant this fall
200 acres and will continue to clear and
plant the land until they have 1000
acres is peach trees. The land is roll
Ing pine, affording excellent drainage,
and with clear, wholesome subsoll
and a lime and phosphate bottom, about
a foot below the surface, it is consid-
cred choice land for peach growing.

OF Women Should
Be Taken Into Consideration
When Considering Verdict.

The prospect OF a five-year-old
daughter becoming a financial prop to

up this morning In a hearing before
Justice Mattice In the Brooklyn Supreme
Court on a motion to set aside a verdict

doubtedly excessive.
Counsel for the father OF the dead
child commended that the advancement
Of women In recent years has been
marked and will continue. Quotations
were read showing that women have
taken places with men in literature,
art, music. science, the professions and
business and that women to-day are

When the Kiowa and Comalche
lanGs in Oklahoma were opened, heads
of families were given the opportunity
TO secure a homestead of 100 acres
The governments generosity in max
ing such valuable presents was wide
ly commented on. The affair was
so noteworthy that the Kansas City
Star printed list each day of the
men who had won claims In the
Choctaw and Chickasaw nation each
Indian is given 500 acres. The land
