at Mckenzie, Where Several Hun.
dred Thousand Ties Are Piled Up.
About 1000 railroad ties were de-
stroyed by a fire at Mckenzie last

pile Of about 100000 ties there. to be
used on the new Mckenzie extension.

Did Not Know New Mexico.

Delegate Rodey of New Mexico has
been astonished during the fight for
statehood to find that.a great many
people in the eastern states think that
New Mexico is a foreign country. A
friend of his who runs q big store in
the territory was in New York re.
Gently and went into q Wholesale house
to purchase goods. He told q lordly
looking attendant that the goods were
for shipment to New Mexico. THE
export department is on the next
floor" said the New Yorker, which SO
enraged the would-be purchaser that
he left the place after giving the as
tonished attendant q rather sulphurous
lesson in geography.

cent. and that no standing would be

BATTERY FOR MIAMI.

efforts have been in progress for the
purpose of securing a battery for Mi
ami and the News is pleased to state
that the probability is that these eff
forts will speedily bear fruit The
trouble in the beginning was that the
excessive cost of equipping an artil-
lery company, about $22. 900, deferred
Gen. Foster from granting the appli-
cation when first made. Now, however,
the Pensacola battery has disbanded
and the equipment, including cannon
and carriages. caissons, harness. am
munition, uniforms. swords, pistols
etc, has been ordered shipped to Tai
lahassee, from which place it will be
sent to Miami.

Florida Times Union: Follow
ing the recent cold spell there
was some fear that oranges and orange
trees had suffered to some extent by
the sold. 1t was feared that in Ma
rion county the fruit was badly dam
aged. and that the last growth the
trees had made was cut down. Since
there has been time to investigate the
reports have come to the effect that
there have been no trees damaged,
and that even in Alachua county the
orange trees have not been hurt. In
