Satisfaction Guaranteed,
Tampa's Big Strike.
ST. A YEAR

The FLORIDA Suu nas he following
interview with Y. A. Wimsett, presi
dent OF the State Federation OF La
hor, who WAS re- ele' ted Vt the recent
convention IN st. Augustine.
Mr.. WimseLt's h me is in Tampa,
and he reports the labor situatiou ia
very bad condition at present He
said that there are now 2 800 men~
who make their living in the cigar
industry, out Of work. There Is q
strike in all three OF the factories be-
longing to the tobacco Trust, and
the independent manufacturers, who
belong 10 the Manufacturers Asso-
citation, entered into an agreement
to lock out 25 per cent of their ena-
ployees per week until all are dis
charged.
In one month all The cigar facto--
ries in Tampa will be closed unless
the strike Is settled, and between
four and six Thousand men will be
idle.
"At present" said Mr.. Wimsett,
"there is no prospect for settle
ment of the strike, because the meu
are insisting on their demands, and
the Trust, by reason Of their opera
ton of its factories in other parts Of
the country, is making no effort to
settle the strike.
1T is estimated that SS5 900 per
week is paid to workmen in the cigar
industry in Tampa, and 80 per cent
Of this amount is now cut off, and ic
another month all Of it will be stop
ped.
This will have a disastrous effect
on all business in Tampa, which lie
largely dependent on the money
spent by cigarmakers."

Ate Fish ana Repented.

Fishing seems to be the topic with
some of the citizens of Madison just
now. A few nights ago DR.. Bla-
lock, G.. W. Walker, A. ID. Stanton
and L. II. Patterson went out TO
Hawkins Lake to rid that body Of
water Of some Of its finny tribe, and
from what we learn they succeeded
in landing them. During the night
some time runner was sent TO town
to inform the drayman to go out
and haul them back, but Mfr. Blunt
lug being little suspicious (Snow-
ing himself that the "wsy of the
fisherman was hardy decided he
would investigate the matter before

themselves and were unable to re

wise-he's been there beforehand
thus it was that these two sick men
with the aid of their comrades, had

Cut No Ice.

Joe Pratt, the genial editor Of the
Leesburg Commercial, was in hot
water recently, due to one letter
dropping out Of word in grocer's
advertisement in his paper. Editor
Pratt and his many readers were oil
very much startled when the paper
came out with the announcement of
"STALE" groceries for sale. The
letter dropped was "p," and the
word should have been "stapie. "
In explanation the Commercial says;
"Last week type dropped out OF
Mr.. A. L. Lucius's adj. and made his
fine staple groceries read stale gro
ceries. Since which time the lost
type has been recovered, aud the ad
now reads all right. But everybody

These Questions.

Is there anything in the evidence of

Is there anything in the testimony of

Can reliance be placed upon state

Are the opinions of local citizens of

PEOPLE WHO
WILL HELP HAWAII

Hon. Alexander Young is personally
doing all he can, which is a great deal,
to increase the tourist business. Aside
from sending his fine booklet broad
cast-a work which has been greatly
appreciated-he is writing many per-
sonal letters. One of these addressed
to the head of the Raymond & Whit
comb Co., has brought the following
reply: :.
Luther l. Holden, st. John ST.,
Jamaica Plain, Feb. II, 1904.
Mr.. Alexander Young, Oakland, Cal.
Dear Sir: received a very kind let
ter from you a little over a month ago
in which you were pleased to commend
what I had said of the new accommo-
dations for tourist travel in Honolulu.
I rejoice to know that some one who
loves the Islands has been liberal
enough to provide the traveller to those
charming regions with a fitting home.
Honolulu had outgrown the primitive
accommodations of the old days al
though they served a good purpose. I
was pleased to receive the copies of
the Alexander Young Hotel Souvenir,
ton of the Raymond & Whitcomb Com
pany in making known the charms of
Hawaii to the travelling public. l thank
you also for the Photographic views of
Honolulu taken from the roof of the
hotel. L think we can reproduce these
in some way that would prove of mu-
tual benefit.
With good steamers and a thorough
ly up-to-date hotel, tourist travel ought
certainly to increase. and 1 hope it may.
Although not possessing such intimate
acquaintance with that delightful re-
gion possessed by my dear friend Mr..
Lyon, I have learned to love the Is
lands and shall always feel an interest
in their welfare and in the success of
Honolulu's new and beautiful hotel.
We shall be glad to aid in the distri-
button of any descriptive matter, cir
culars. ETC., regarding Hawaii or the
hotel through our several offices.
Yours sincerely,
LUTHER L. HOLDEN.

Signori Turchi and Bruno which has
been in operation for several months
on a section of line from Bologna, has
proved a thoroughly practical success,

cornered made tremendous rushes to
get through it. The fish were pretty
well SCARED as some of their scales had
| been scraped off in their fight against
| the iron traps that shared them off
shore but the caretaker said that in a
| few weeks the scales would grow out
again.
A CURIOUS FAMILY.
happy family consisted of several
kinds of crabs and an eel. The eel had
its head poked in between coral and
nesting against it's tail was a deep
sea crab. Surmounting a rock was a
small hermit crab.
The next pen contained convict"
fish, transparent little fellows wearing
striped uniforms. This tank contained
many fishes as it is not difficult to
secure them on this coast.
Then there We're the corner fish.
These were fiat looking, and had gor-
geous black and white coloring. From
their heads there was fin like struc-
ture that looked like a pennant and as
it waved around in many directions as
the fish were swimming do not think
it could have been used as steering
gear. Apparently it was but an orna-
ment.
The squid tank appeared to be empty
but as 1 watched it the rocks seemed to
breathe and a small portion of a crab
was drawn right into what seemed to
be solid coral. This was funny. But
the rock commenced to grow. Little
nasty looking tentacles stretched out
from the rock and one stretched for
more than two feet in the direction of
another breathing rock. The caretaker
fhQSa n
yesterday the four squids the tank con-
tanned had got away with fifteen crabs.
A native told me that within two miles
of the shores of this island there We're
probably about million squids. had
no paper or pencil with me or / would
have tried to figure how many crabs it
would take to feed a million squids for
three hundred and sixty-five days if
each squi1 was capable of making
away with four crabs each day. If the
natives statement was correct / fear
that the entrance to Honolulu harbor
will some day be entirely blocked with
az army of crabs seeking shelter from
the squids.
HE WEAVES AT NIGHT.
Another fish. so the caretaker in
formed me, had a habit of weaving a
net OF scum around it each night. He
thought this was for protection. This
same fish looked very dull as it rested
on gravel at the base of some coral
yesterday.
In addition to the few fishes 1 have
tried to describe there are scores of
other varieties, some very pretty and
some without the halimarks of beauty,
but still interesting.
