any of the dwellings in the modern
city. To-day the place that was once
the brightest jewel in tile Castilian
crown, where the conquest of an EN-
pire was planned, is a dismal heap of
ruins in the midst of a pestilential
swamp, inhabited only by snakes, igua-
mas and alligators. Here and there a
turret, or bit of wall, overgrown to the
top with bushes and twined around and
around with vines and creepers, re-
mains a melancholy relic of the past.
Northeruers who have never seen it can
form little idea of tropic luxuriance in
this hot and humid atmosphere-espec-
tally after two centuries OF undisturbed
growth. The watch-tower of San Je-
rome is an example of this, 1t is in the
form of a hollow square, one hundred
feet high, and is said to have been built
six years before the old city's destruc-
ton. 1t still stands entire, SO wound
about and upheld by woven vines that
it cannot fall, though trees and bushes
grow on it's summit, whose sturdy roots,
running downward, have completely
filled the inner space.

IoNEsPORT JOTTINGS.


From the jonesport Enterprise.
David Dyer and Miss Look of Add
son were united in marriage last week.
Mr.. Dyer is one of the towns industr-
Gus Young men and his many friends
extend their best wishes.
Captain Jerry Faulkinglam is cruis-
ing The high seas this winter in his
swift yacht, and whoever happens to
be sailing in the same direction must
expect to be left astern, for his craft is
about the smartest one that sails out OF
JonespOrt.
The Enterprise understands by good
authority that the William L Underwood
Co. of Boston has become interested in
the patent fish cutting machine invent
ed by A. r. Rogers of this place. A
complete machine will be made and
placed in the [ Underwood factory, to be
ready for business by The first OF May.
Among the transfers of property of
note last week was that of the middle
factory formerly owned by the Sea
Coast Packing Company, to parties in
town. This factory has been inactive
for the past year, but it Is understood
thatit will be run during the coming sea

repairs, for the parties whom the En-
terprise understands now own 1t are

for their work. The operating OF this
factory the coming season Will mean
greater prosperity for Jonesport.
Fishing grounds, as well as people,
change. This is demonstrated by the
way the fishermen are catching cod
near Camp Island. Old fishermen can
remember when at this time OF year
they were obliged to go off shore Is or
16 miles to what is known as the mud
grounds" in order to get any amount of
tile much-coveted cod. For the last
year or two the fish seem to have chang
ed their feeding ground nearer in shore.
This is accounted for by the fact that
small herring are now running nearer
the shore than they used to.
