FOUND GOPHER, LOST HIS LIFT

FOUND GOPHERj LOST HIS LIFE.
A dispatch from Gainesville to the
Times Union says: Information reach
ed this city yesterday of the tragic
death of Amos Green, worthy co.or-
ed man, who conducted a farm in the
vicinity of Alachua. Green decided he
wanted to eat some gopher, and ac-
cordingly went in search of his game.
This was on Friday morning, and
when he did not return on the follow
ing day. his good wife and family
naturally became alarmed; and with
a few neighbors, instituted a search.
After a couple of hours, one of the
searching party discovered the mans
leg extended from the ground, his
body and head being buried, With
the shovel which Green had carried
with him, the earth was soon removed,
and when he was released from this
bondage it was discovered that one
hand was still tightly grasping a go
piers leg at the bottom of the hole.
1t is supposed that Green attempted
TO dig his game out of its abode, and
when a sufficient quantity of earth
had been excavated, he had gone in
after the game head first expecting
to capture it and pull it out The
earth, being soft, at once gave way.
and the man suffered the terrible ex-
perience of being buried alive. 1t
is supposed he had been dead about
tWentV-four hours.

ANGELS DEATH NO ACCIDENT.

Jacksonville Metropolis; The death
of John F. Angel was due to no acct
dent. The bullet that was fired into
his head by his brother-in-law, James
f. Stark. was with elaboration and
with the purpose of effectlng his death.
The above in substance is the result
of the investigation made by the coro-
ner's jury this morning. The evidence
was too plain to admit of any other
verdict. The testimony showed clear
ly that Stark entered the express Of
flee on last Thursday afternoon, with
the determination to kill Angel. There
was nothing in the testimony to show
that he intended to kill his wife, or
that the killing was accidental.

be so per cent. larger than that of
last year, and as buyers are beginning
to show a good deal of activity it is
hoped that good prices will be realized.
Building operations are going on
with much vigor. and yet the supply
of houses is far exceeded by the de-
mand. Just how to meet the greater
demand which will come with the
opening of the tourist season is a
problem not yet solved. A meeting of
the business men of the town was
held for the purpose of discussing the
situation, and trying to reach a solu-
ton. But while all recognized the
demand for more houses none was
able to point out a way to secure them
in time for the arrival of the winter
visitors. Contractors and builders have
their hands full, and every mechanic
is at work on full time.
