FOR ROBBING HIS FRIEND.

A dispatch from Lake Butler says:
Deputy Sheriff R. R. Richard arrested
a young man here this evening named
D. NJ. Lowe of Caskill upon a charge
of robbery. Some six weeks ago Willie
Thomas, a merchant of this place, and
Mr.. Lowe went to Jacksonville, where
Mr.. Thomas went to buy some goods,
carrying with him about $500. Lowe had
been staying in Thomas store some
while Thomas was sick, and was well
acquainted with his affairs. After
Thomas had made his purchase in
Jacksonville he suggested some amuse-
ment for the evening. The two then
went to resort together, and had, ac-
cording to Mr.. Thomas account, only
two glasses of beer, when he suddenly
became unconscious, and remained SO
until morning, when he found that he
had been robbed. With the missing
money was a tobacco sack, containing
$67 in gold; and it was supposed the
women of the place had got the money
until a few days ago, when Lowe, who
was under the influence of liquor,
CHANGED to pull out of his pocket what
appeared to be Thomas missing to-
bacco sack. Thomas, who was stand
ing near, seized it Immediately and de-
scribed it's contents, stating that it con-
tanned four $3.50 gold pieces, which
proved to be correct After this Deputy
Richard went out to the farm where
Lowe was employed and searched his
belongings, where a great many differ
ent articles were found that were iden-
titled as coming from Thomas store.
Another item of proof was letter writ
ten by Lowe yesterday, and not mailed,
instructing his father to write him stat
ing that he had sent about 800 to him
by open mail as he was expecting to
have trouble with Thomas, and wanted
the letter in court to show how he came
to have money on hand at this time.

From the Lancet.


The recent sad case of drowning at
Shanklin, with the sensational evidence
given at the inquest by fiSherman's
wife, who found the corpse, will be
treasured with avidity no doubt by
large numbers of persons. Among all
classes there are to be found plenty of
individuals who believe in dreams"
and a larger number still who though
not prepared to affirm their actual be-
lief, yet think that probably there is
something in them These people
hold, in fact that mere coincidence
will not account for such occurrences
as that to which we are referring.
1t will be remembered that the body
of the unfortunate Miss Lumsden was
found upon the rocks by a woman who
stated at the inquest that she was led
to search this spot by having on three
successive nights dreamed that she saw
there the corpse of the missing lady
Such statement is at once enough to
convince the believer in dreams 1t full
fills at breath all his hopes and car
ries out to the full visionary aspirations
which perhaps he has approached hith-
erto, but has never seen definitely real
lied. To such people it would be vain
to ask how many other fishermens
wives in and about Shanklin dreamed
of the unhappy lady lying cold and
dead upon the rocks.
Generally speaking, indeed, the enor-
nous number of dreams, the thousands
nightly that never, so to speak, "come
off," are entirely disregarded in the
presence of the one that hits off the
facts-or, at any rate, appears to do so
afterward. For with all the honesty in
the world the Imagination of a poor
woman dwelling by the sea, fostered
as are the imaginations of a sea shore
folk by the winds and waves and sug-
gestive sights and sounds of the waters.
is flexible to the extreme and readily
takes for true what suits it's natural
trend. The very number of times that
the dream occurred is suggestive. Three
is the favored mineral of the supersti-
tious and we can quite believe that if
this fisher wife had but dreamed her
dream on two occasions, or a night or
two apart, these would have welded
themselves in her Imagination into
three successive nights.

time to time for the past three years.
When I had a model of my machine
made and found that it worked all
right as model, / entered into CORE
spondence with Prof. Langley and
sent him drawings of the manner in
which my machine worked. Recently
l have received a letter from him tell
ing me to come to Washington and
fully explain my theory to him. He
is of the opinion that a combination
of the machine which he used at the
Nashville Exposition and my machine
and believes it will be a success. lie
says he is willing to devote a part of
the fund in his hands for the develop
ment of the combined machine" Mr..
LaI1atte says he got the idea for his
machines from the little fiat flying
machines frequently seen in the hands
of children; a doubled-bladed fan,
with the blades slightly inclined in OPP
posite directions, fastened on to the
top of round stick about the size of
lead pencil. When this is twisted
rapidly between the palms of the
hands, or a string is wound around the
stick and pulled out to propel the
blades of the fam the stick will rise in
the air and float along for some little
distance. From this he has made a
machine doing away with the balloon
theory and using the fans or propeller
blades entirely. On the top there is
one large double-bladed fan that is
used to carry the machine up, while
on the front and rear of the machine
are two smaller fans. used to make it
float level in any strata desired, while
another small fan is governed by an
apparatus for steering the machine,
turning the one way or the other, TO
guide the machine in the direction de-
psired for it to go.

NOW SAYS HE JOKED.

Albany Daily Herald: Fifteen years
DRY Level plantation of Mr.. ]. B. Beall
burned to the ground. The house was
then occupied by Mr.. H. H. Savage,
whose house furniture was insured for
a large amount. This furniture was
destroyed by the fire and insurance
collected. The fire was regarded as a
mysterious one at the time, and there
were several circumstances connected
with the fire that aroused a suspicion
of foul play. This fire resulted in the
arrest yesterday of Louis Robinson,
white man, who lives on the Dunn
place, in West Dougherty. Robinson is
now in Jail, his bond fixed at $500,
and a true bill against him charging
him with arson. Several young men
have been out in West Dougherty from
time to time this year hunting with
Robinson, who has regaled them with
thrilling accounts of how he applied
the torch to the house on Mr. BealPs
place, and how he was paid so hand
somely for the job. These tales were
repeated by those to whom they were
told, with the result that the grand
jury in session this week began an in
vestigation. Enough evidence was
forthcoming to warrant the finding of
a true bill charging Robinson with
arson Robinson was arrested yester-
day and brought to the city. His bond
was fixed at $780, in default of which
he was confined to Jail. Robinson does
not deny that he related the stories
about burning the Beall house, but says
that he was only joking, and that the
story has no foundation in fact, ex-
cept that the house burned.

taloupe acreage in Florida this year
have just been compiled by the vari-
Gus refrigerator car companies which
operate in Florida. The acreage is
about double what it was last year, and
a great yield is expected. On the Sea-
board Air Line there are about $500
acres of cantaloupes, mostly in the
central part of the state, Anthony
furnishing the largest acreage. There
are in the Anthony section alone 1,0O4
acres of cantaloupes, and near Ocala
there are as many more. On the At
lantic Coast Line there are fully 5000
acres of cantaloupes, while on the East
Coast Railway there are a few acres,
as an experiment. Up to the present
time the indications for a cantaloupe
crop are good. All the reports re-
ceived from the farmers are to the
effect that their crops are in good con-
dition, and that the weather has been
extremely favorable.

WORK OF THE SOLONS.
Unlikely That Florida VIII Have An
Exhibit at ST. Louis.

Exhibit at ST. Louis.
Tallahassee, Fla, April 15.-Florida
will not be represented at the St.
Louis Worlds Fair. This seems to be
we'll settled. although Senator Law
has introduced a bill appropriating
$4,000 for an exhibit. A large num-
Der of people in the state would like
to see Florida represented, but the
Governor is emphatically opposed to
appropriAting money for that purpose.
In the Senate a bill appropriating
$4,000 for a Governors mansion has
been introduced by Mr. Law. The
sentiment of the state is that the man
sion be erected, and the bill will have
practically no opposition.
On Tuesday, April 81, the two Houses
will ballot for a United States senator
to succeed the Hon. S. R. Mallory.
This question was settled at the polls
last November, when Mr. Mallory re-
ceived the endorsement of the people.
To-day Representative Ware of
Washington, the only Republican MEM
Der, was presented with handsome
chair by the Republicans of the state.
The bill introduced by Represen-
tative McNamee to validate the $780,

ty has passed the House, after a
spirited debate. Those opposed to the
measure tried to kill it by talking, but
vote was finally forced and the bill
went through by a vote of Sc to g.
1t will pass the Senate without much
difficulty. The bill has already been
voted on twice by the people and was
carried both times for bonds by over
whelming majorities.

slaught on the Indian War Fund. s.
1. Wales and Mrs. Beard have pre-
sented a petition asking that their

allowed. 1t is the opinion of those in
opposition to know that this is a just
claim, and will be allowed as soon as
the necessary investigation is made
