A PLEASANT OCCASION
Master Mechanic Reid Presented with
 Watch and Chain

Monday morning Dave Reid. the popular master mechanic of the Fl Paso & Southwestern railroad, who recently resigned his position with the company, was notified at his home in Bisbee that his presence was need ed in Douglas Monday evening. Dave took the train and hurried to Doug las, where he was met by Max Fled Ter, who told him to meet at the CO lonial hotel at s p. m.-that there was something doing" Promptly at s D. m. Dave was escorted to the ho- te, by Max, where they found in wait ing about thirty-fve of the employees O. the Douglas shops. In a neat and appropriate speech Engineer Libbey called Mir Reid into the center of the parlor and presented him with beau tiful gold watch and chain and dia- mond stud from his former co-labor- CTS. Mir. Libbey also gave to Mir Reid a beautiful diamond brooch for the wife of the master mechanic. MT. Reid was overcome only for a second and when he found his voice replied, thanking the boys for their kindness and remembrances Mir Reid said that in all his life he had never had d than those with whom he had been as sociated for the past three years in the service of the Arizona & South eastern and Fl Paso & Southwestern railroad companies. He said there never had been the least friction be tween the employees and their leader, and that in leaving the employ of the company he did so with many regrets, the chief of which was to leave such a good lot of fellows as those with whom he had been associated for the past three years.
 The watch is a very fine one, beauti- fully cased and engraved On the cover are the words, Presented to Dave Reid, our former master me chanic, by the employees of the Fl Paso & Southwestern R. R. shops, "' and the initials ID. W. R." engraved on the front cover.
 Mir Reid left Tuesday evening for Tucson, where he goes to take a po- sition with the Southern Pacific com pany in the mechanical department of that ompany.-Douglas International

A CHICAGO WOMAN TRACES HIM
 TO ARIZONA
Was Last Heard of in Tucson-May Have Worked in 6isbee-His Description
Chicago. H., Aug. 5. 1902.


 Chicago. H., Aug. 5. 1902.
 To the Editor: Dear Sir-My hus- band, MT Frank Novotny. of 1056 West Nineteenth street, Chicago, left on Tuesday night. March 11th, 1902, for Phoenix. Arizona. arriving there on Saturday March 18th. He stayed there until the 29th, and from there he went to Tucson and was last seen and spoken to by Mir. w. H. Taylor, the city marshal of Tucson, on April 18th. Since April 18th I have not heard from him and as he always wrote at least once week, l am led to believe that something has hap pened him. I was informed by the town marshal of Tucson that judging from the conversation he had with my husband, he was going back to Phoenix or in that direction north to some of the mining camps. Acting on this information, wrote to all the different mines in Arizona, asking them if my husband was employed or had applied for work, and they ad- vised me that they have no such per son in their employ.
 My husband had not been very well, and thought that the climate in Arizona would benefit him, so con- cluded to go there and find work in the mines or anywhere so he could at least pay his expenses until he felt better, and would then return home.
 He was a man of Bohemian nation ality. 5s years of age, brown and gray mixed hair, weighed about 200 pounds, dressed in working clothes, wore a black slouch hat, dark blue cutaway coat, black vest, dark trousers with stripe, black shirt with white stripes. also wore a belt around his pants, had a full smooth face, and one tooth was missing in the upper jaw on the right side of his face. he also wore rup- ture belt around his waist.
 Dear sir, I hope you will try and assist me by publishing an account of the foregoing in your paper which may be factor in finding the where abouts of my husband. The Chicago papers were all anxious to publish the news. but as I did not think It would do any good, they advised me to write you my story and that you would gladly publish same. Am willing to pay a reward to any paper or person who can furnish me with information regarding my husband
 Hoping am not asking too much or you. I am. respectfully yours,
 Mrs. Minnie Novotny.

Benson Man Derarqed

SShSSb iof S'eN'SSS
 Tucson has developed an emulator of Harry Tracy in the person of T. c. Forbes. This man, however, has never been in the pen" and is not even a bad one. Still, he insists that he is Harry Tracy, the noted outlaw, and declares officers and posses are hot on his rail. He hears the yelps of bloodhounds and see the men com ing in pursuit. Forbes came here from Benson a few days ago evident ly to outwit a sheriff, but found that others were on his trail. He lodged about town for a couple of days, and finally had to give up. He walked into the sheriff's office yesterday and demanded protection from his pursu- CTS. The officers thought that he had the "jim-jams" and locked him up. He will be tried before Judge Purcell tomorrow and will probably be sent to the insane asylum.-Citizen.

A Fool to the Last.

boy said a Detroit man, "a man
built a factory in Concord, n. H..
wheelbarrows. When the 40 en-
ployes had turned out about l0C
wheelbarrows they wanted small
raise in wages. The owner wouldn't
give in, and the men stood firm, and
q strike took place.
Livery well; you can CO. said the
owner. Remember, however, that
I'll see this factory rot to the ground
before Iii give in.
"They answered that they would
starve before they would yield, and
so the factory was locked up and
time went on. The owner grew old
and gray, and the hands died or dis
appeared, and five years ago found
that only the owner and one of the
strikers were left alive in Concord
[ was in Concord again a month ago
Hhe factory was still closed and
ready to tumble down, and the last
Of the strikers was dead. The owner
was hObbling about the streets of the
town on crutches, with only few
months life left, when | said to him
"'Well, Uncle Billy, | learn that
job Sabins Is dead. AS he was the
last of the strikers you'll open the
factory again, won't you?'

Do You Recognize Him?

The Times-Union and Citizen of
the Sd inst. publishes the following
story under the caption, 1.-THE story
of a Hermit Printer" Crescent
City people will readily recognize
in the hermit their old friend and
fellow townsman, F. M. Murchison,
formerly editor of the Florida Phil
osopher. The Times Union account
is little far fetched; Mr.. Murchi-
son does not live miles from other
human habitation, nor does he live
in hut, but in IA room barracks.
His place is at Lungren, Volusia
county, and near him is a grave
yard and several vacant houses. He
is about four miles from the Atlantic
Coast Line Railroad. The story Is as
follows:
Captains Spencer and Shaw, the
| local United States inspectors OF
steam boilers and hulls, on recent
trip up to the headwaters of the ST.
Johns river, unearthed probably one
of the most unique newspaper plan S
in the State Of Florida. The plant
was discovered in the midst of a
wild, barren country. Captains
| Shaw and Spencer ran upon the hut,
in which it was located, Academia :
ly. 1t was the only house, such as t
was, within a radius of many miles,
and naturally the inspectors thought
that they would pay a visit to the
tenants. When they entered the
front part of the house it seemed as
if the place were not occupied, but
on going back into a rear room,
which had been transformed into a
printshop, they came upon an old
man of unkempt appearance, who
was bending over printers case,
evidently busy setting type. The old
man had long, matted hair that
hung down on his neck and partially
concealed his face. His clothes
we're frayed out and worn. The old
man was of kindly visage, however,
and stopped in his work to give the
visitors a welcome. Itrequired only
u few questions to get him started,
telling about his printshop. He said
that he was getting out magazine.
HE said that the publishing of the
paper was his lifewOrk. He had set
tied down in the wilds, bought a
small printing outfit, secondhand,
and spent his days alone at the case,
or at a desk putting his thoughts in
to shape. The paper is published
once a month at the subscription
price of 80 cents year. The lone
printer is unmarried, and there is no
other human being within several
miles of his habitation."

The CRESCENT Cry News.

Few people in this section ever see
the beautiful grove property of w.
5. Pine, which is situated little off
the Fruitland road and two miles
west of Huntington. Mr.. Pines
grove is now in high state of cul-
tlvation, the trees are large, and are
well laden with fruit. Another sea-
son will witness heavy crop of or
anges and tangerines. The grounds
about the pretty house are we'll kept.
and the slope to the road is beautiful
with great rose bushes in bloom, or
namented shade and variety of
fruit trees. Mr.. Pines grove is one
OF the most advanced on the penin-
sula, and it shows the master hand
at cultivation. 1t is stated that ow-
ing to his continued i'll health Mr.
Pine cOntemplates disposing of the
property, so that he can move into
town. He is an ex-federal soldier
who came to Florida many years ago
in search of health with but little
encouragement from his physician
of ever finding other than an early
grave. But Mr.. Pine, like many
another northern men who has come
to Florida for the same purpose, has
fooled the dOctors-at least 70 years
Of life here would so indicate. This
place would make an ideal home for
man who would like q place with
immediate revenue producing quail
tiles, and ought to find a ready pur-
chaser.
Benz. N. Bradt, whose beautiful
home, farm and orange grove is stu
ated on the Fruitland road between
that place and Huntington, gentle
man well known in the agricultural
assemblies of the state where he has
for years been a recognized leader of
advanced ideas and methods, has, it
is understood, determed to associate
himself with f. o. Painter d Co. of
Jacksonville, in the fertilizer bust
ness. Mr.. Bradt left for Jackson
vile early in the week, and it is
stated that Mrs. Bradt will soon fol-
low. Mr.. Bradt's place on the
Fruitland road, midway between
that place and Huntington, is one of
the beautiful sights of Florida and
illustrates better than any single
place we know of the possibilities of
combination agricultural and horti-
cultural development In Putnam
county. The place is a marvel in
high grade cultivation. Driving
along the lonesome roadway most o.
which is through wooded lands and
uncultivated fields, one suddenly
comes upon the fertile, waving
fields, grove, and orchards of Mr..
Bradt. 1t is a place Of well kept
fences, well titled fields, and model
farming in every detail. The man
who could plan and build as Mr..
Bradt has built is well fitted for
leadership. His theories are illus
trated in his every day practice.
The News wishes that every new
conner to the state could view Mr..
Bradt's model farm. His business
arrangements in Jacksonville do not
mean that the farm is to be aban-
doned.

A conundrum propounded by
Bishop Potter was told as follows !:
"Why is it that in the many pic
lures and statues of angels exhibited
the angels are always depicted either
rs women or young men without
boards or mustaches?" The bishops
answer, which always affords him
keen enjoyment, is that everybody
knows women naturally inherit the
Kingdom of Heaven, but that men
only get in by very close shave
