role to defeat his death sentence. All
day yesterday he was raving in his
cell, tearing his clothing, chewing his
tongue, and setting fire to everything
in his cell that would burn. He did
such violence to his own person that
the jailer was forced to bind him with
ropes and chains. He lies bound hands
and feet and foams att the mouth like
mad man. County Physician Hicks
made an examination of Bryant and is
not of the opinion that he is really
crazy.

ORANGE LAKE WILL SURVIVE.

The recent scheme for draining
Orange Lake, Marion county, has been
defeated by the unanimous efforts of
the property owners of the lake shore
and surrounding country. Had the
scheme been carried through all hope
of making it an orange producing sec
ton again would have been destroyed.
The groves along this lake are all do
ing well. Last year they bore salts
factory crops, and have now a heavy
bloom. The crops next year on the
groves Immediately upon the shores of
the lake will probably amount to So,
900 boxes or more. This lake
is situated in what was known
before the freeze of '95 as the
great orange belt" of Florida. The
fruit produced was of a very fine quail
ity. The largest orange grove in the
world was upon the shores of this lake,
near Citra. These magnificent groves
were the pride of the entire country
surrounding them. Visitors could
drive for miles without reaching the
limits. The devastating blight of re-
peated freezes has changed the beauti-
full scene into one of desolation. 1t
would be cruel, indeed, to take away
all hope of glorious tomorrow" by
draining the lake just when success is
in sight. Among those who have been
most loyal and untiring in their efforts
to restore their groves to their old time
glory, are Mr.. D. H. Irvine, Mr.. +.
G.. Sampson, and Mr.. c. w. White.

that there will be as many crates of

The fruit growers are very uneasy

for they know another freeze now or
a little later will mean total destruc-
