Port Orange, January s. On New

very damp day and rained all the
evening, the social hall was crowded.
The receipts we're over $50. They

visitors seemed to enjoy the enter
tainment as we'll as they did the pre-.
vious evening. The receipts were
quite as satisfactory. Of course the
dancing was kept up till quite late in
the evening.
Mrs. NeOks came last week. She is

the stage, and an arch formed extend
Ing from one tree to the other, beau
tifully illuminated and loaded with
presents. Mrs. Allen does not forget
Port Orange. She sent large boz

Shad fishing has begun at Dexter's
Point several miles from here on the
river. MIR. Douglass caught Is shad
one day. and on another day last
week, but the fish are not very plenti-
full yet. At Lake George, farther
down the river, the fishermen began
operations in December.
Albert Turner finished cane grind
ing last week, and made 80 gallons of
syrup for Barney billiard and 20 for
Mr.. Jenkins; this in addition to the
syrup previously made at his mill.
The people in the neighborhood had
about finished digging their sweet
potatoes when the first freeze of the
season came, Saturday, December p.
The following are some of the crops
raised: Albert Turner, 200 bushels:
VIM. Minshew, 200 bushels; Ed. Lemon,
200 bushels; John Davis, $50 bushels;
Washington Peterson, 100 bushels.
Miss Mary Price spent the holidays
in Lungren, the guest of Mrs. Turner,
returning to Pierson last Sunday to
resume her duties at the Pierson
school, Her friends here were glad
to greet her again.
Miss Nellie Furen, the school teach.
err, spent the holidays at Sylvan Lake
with home folk, returning Sunday to
open the school Monday.
VIM. Turner of this place left for
DeLand two or three weeks ago to
take a situation with Mr.. Cannons,
the owner of the fine turnouts and the
big carriage.
The people of Aston seem to be act.
i've in the way Of getting up amuse-
ments. A Santa Claus and Christmas
tree entertainment was given at the
school house. The band from Aston
Park, partly composed of ladies' was
present and furnished the music. On
Friday night last, January 2, mas
querade ball was held in the hall and
the dancing was kept up until "a. m
1t was also largely attended, the lead
ing citizens taking part.
Shipments of oranges have been
made this season from Bluffton, Volu.
sia, Emporia, Pierson and Lungren,
only few boxes going from the latter
place. 1t looks like prosperity was
returning to Florida. Excellent or.
anges are grown in the north end Of
Volusia county.
Mr.. r. j. Bishop of Eldridge will set
out peach orchard of 1000 trees.
He says he will put up cotton gin If
the people will raise the cotton-l00
acres to commence with. He says he
will raise cotton himself if others will.
Mr.. Bishop Is proprietor of the tur-
pentine still at Eldridge. He origin.
ally came from South Carolina and
has much confidence in Florida.

A boy was in town Friday with 20
coon skins which he brought to one of
the stores. Several weeks ago Tom
Crawford brought in 10 coon skins.
The coons were killed in the Haw
Creek section, The skins sell from
Is cents to 81. There are evidently
plenty of coons In Volusia county.
A much needed new footlog ia to be
placed over the creek west of town.
Wide, thick planks are to be substi-
tuted for the decaying logs, over

NOTICE OF APP in Florida cities.
-~---ll5EEp. ANsPElhealth and decency,
and in these days of modern progress
the city of any Importance without a
convenience OF this kind is behind the
times. DeLand has peculiar method
Of disposing Of its sewage, which is en-
forced by municipal law. Tanks are
furnished each closet by the city gov
eminent, together with a box of muck
which is placed inside. The city
wagon goes around once a week and
gathers up the tanks, substituting
empty ones, and bringing fresh sup.
ply OF muck TO be used on the sewage
as, needed. A tax OF Is cents per
month is imposed for each tank and
the removal of the sewage. The city
sells the sewage for fertilizing pur.
poses. While this system no doubt
compels some people to be more de.
cent about their premises than they
otherwise would be, it is rather un'
satisfactory, and probably more ex-
pensive in the long run than a sewer.
age system would be. Refined people
can have their back yards attended
to in a more satisfactory manner than
a city hireling can, who is required to
eyade 4 mans premises whether he
likes it or not. A sewerage system
would be far more valuable to De Land,
and perhaps suita BILE one could be
devised, although DeLand is an int.
yior and Health.

will be no exaggeration to say that the
life Of the Indian hunter was life of
fascination. From the moment that he
lost sight of his rude home in the
midst of the forest, his untutored mind
lost itself in the myriad beauties and
forces of nature. Yet he never forgot
his personal danger from some lurking
foe or savage beast, however absorbing
was his passion for the chase.
