Death from Conclusion of Brain.
One Of the saddest accidents Of the

STARTING A FLORIDA FEUD.
One Mans Farm Floated Away in the Night and Neighbor
 Caught It.

Speaking about feuds." said John l.. Humphries. of Tampa. Fla, ac- eording 10 the Denver Republican, "I think that the strangest, in its incep. tion at least is one between two families in Marion county in our state.
 "It came about in this way. You know, in our state sometimes land disappears during the night. and a man wakes up to find his garden a great sinkhole. This is, of course. due 10 the fact that Florida is built on coral, and not very substantially built at that especially in some of the interior counties. Harry Bedding had a nice patch of Irish potatoes. and Oliver Vance, his neighbor. had what he called a farm, and near the house was a sinkhole.
 One night Readings potato patch disappeared and the next morning he water, where the garden was. The same night Vance, who had a sinkhole when he went to bed. woke up to find that the hole was filled with dirt, in which there seemed to be lot of peb- bles about the size of a mans fist Naturally he was surprised He ex- amined the pebbles to find them po- tatoes. and after calling the family up they got to work and gathered in six bushels of potatoes ready for mar ket.
 That's where the trouble began where a mans stock wanders on to the premises of another without his fault. he can go after it. He argued that the same doctrine applied to potatoes which had wandering habits. For he was very sure that the potatoes on the Vance farm belonged to him. Vance and his friends invoked another principle of law that a man owns his land from heaven to hades. and he refused to dig up the potatoes for the benefit of his neighbor
 All that happened ten years ago." continued Mir. Humphries, and the Readings and the Vances are still armed against each other. Two or three skirmishes have taken place be- tween the parties and one of the Vance boys, IS years old. was wounded by fire from the enemy
 "They have never spoken to each other since .iat eventful night ten years ago. Lawyers and politicians have gone out 10 help them settle their difficulties. but they were obdurate, and if the feud grows for 20 years as it has already. Florida and Marion county will have feud equal to the best that Kentucky has ever pro- duced."

 During the several weeks he was thge, l never saw him speak a dozen words to anyone, although he was constantly in the hotel office.
 He smoked the choicest cigars. and several of them a day. Should the landlord or any of the guests address him. they would be rewarded by g mere gsunt or monosyllable, and his wife was equally reticent Whether he was a grand duke in disguise. a horse thief or bank robber, no one was able to guess.
 Every afternoon his handsome team and carriage were brought to the hotel entrance, and he and his family woqld take long ride into the country.

DREAMS OF STARVING MEN
They Have Many Visions of Tempt ing Viands and Piles of
 Food


 Food dreams" superinduced by ex- treme hunger and the difficulties that att tend the advent of Morpheus in the ant arctic regions are very interesting read ing. and from tho account of the voyage of the Discovery 10 the antarctic Is ex- tracted the following data:
 Tn the journey to the south, in which we were absent three months from the ship" says Edward A. Wilson, NJ. B., writing in the British Medical Journal, "our food allowance was for some six. weeks a bare pound and half per man daily. On this allowance hunger never left us. and sleep was much disturbed by disappointing food dreams-sirloins of beef and steaming cauldrons of cabbage and potato: ball suppers- stuffed tur- keys and splendid hams, and walters flying around with plates full for every body else but shout as one might one could not get attended to- ard then one awoke and remained awake in ones sleeping bag for hours from sheer hun ger and healthy appetite to wait for breakfast of boiled rice and the crumbs of one and half biscuits fried in the fat of thin slice of bacon. Then four hours hauling on the sledges and cold lunch of dried chips of seal meat, eight Jumps of sugar and biscuit. then three more hours of hauling on the dogs. and a final camp for the night on pannikin of soup made of pemmican and pea meal, with plenty of boiled tea water and fraction of a piece of chocolate. As for sleep in the lower temperatures of the spring sledge journeys, 1t is hard ly worth the name
 The seamen used to wake in the morn- ing and swear they had been awake all night, but my own experience Is the same as that of others, and it is this: One gets into the reindeer-skin sleeping bag with no joy at all. for after few days sledging the accumulation of mois- ture from the condensation of ones breath and from the snowdrift, and from precipitation in ones clothing, has filled the reindeer hair with frost and rime. and made the leather hard and full of frozen wetness. One crawls into this after freezing ones fingers over chang ing socks and boots of reindeer skn-an absolute necessity to prevent tho freez-. ing of ones feet. Having drawn the flap over ones head and buttoned all the tog- glos. so that as little air as possible can get in or out, one begins to shiver ones self warm a business which occupies from an hour to an hour and half or two hours; sometimes II seems to occupy the whole night During the process the bag begins to thaw. as we'll as ones va- rious garments. After this thaw has set in properly one begins 10 dream, and but for dreams the most absurd under the sun, one would not believe that one had slept al all. Every hour or so one wakes to shiver, and then again the dreams be- gin. and this goes on until at last there IS light enough in the tent to cook by, and one knows that purgatory is over

 It developed later that the two men were canvassers. and were working on salary for the Main Grafter," as we shall call him.
 The scheme was worked as follows; Two farmers. who were brothers-in-la~ were selected as dupes. One of them owned 100 acres of farm land. with q new house and barn. and the otl;er l20 acres upon which were com fortable house and barn. One lived west of the town and the other east.
 One of the canvassers arranged with one of these farmers for board. while the other canvasser made his head- quarters with the other farmer Once settled one of them negotiated with his landlord for the services of his son and horse and buggy with which to canvass, while the other made similar arrangements with the son of near neighbor of the farmer who boarded him.
 The patent clothes pounder and cleanser" was made entirely of wood. It was constructed exactly as was the old-fashioned clothes pounder of our grandmothers' days, shaped hoop skirt fashion. In the center of the lower part, a good-sized hole was chiseled out, extending upwards, about eight inches, where small counter holes were bored, interesting the large one, so that when the clothes were being pounded the hot suds would be forced by suction up into the pounder, and passing out through the side holes would. they claimed separate the dirt from the clothing and leave it perfect ly elean-all by the one process of pounding. instead of the old way ct frst pounding. and then scrubbinS.

Alcoholic Drink from Rice,

The alcoholic drink used in the prov ince of Chekiang. in China, is made from fermented rice. Fermentation is induced by the addition of cakes made of wheat meal. An examination of these cakes by K Saito shows that the parti- cles of wheat are penetrated through and through by the myeel.a of various fungi. Some seven or more different species were found. These fungi grow on the moistened rice, fermentation fol- lows. and yellow liquid with an agree able odor is produced.

CROP OF CIGARS GROWING
Great Increase in American Consump- tion of Tobacco This
 Year

The habitual smoker Is occasionally reminded by his abstemioua friends that smoking is an expensive habit and wasteful one. and he is asked .o consider how much money he could save annually by discontinuance of the habit. The habitual smoker. If he gives consideration to this propo- sition at all. invariably comes to the conclusion that the money he might not expend for cigars or tobacco would not be saved" at all and that the other things he would probably buy with 1t would not give him . tenth of the genuine enjoyment and solid comfort derived from his pet luxury
 Whatever the conclusions of the in. dividual smoker, however, 1t must be admitted that the habit of smoking. as induleed in by Americans. costs in the aggregate lot of money. To- bacco Leaf presents some interesting figures on this subject. During the fiscal year ended June 90, 1905, there wero manufactured in the United States 76S9. .337 POT cigars, an increase of more than 35.o00.000 over the rec. ord of the preceding year. The cigar ctte crop. too. in spite of Indana's antieigarette law, showed a healthy activity. the increase amounting to over Al 100000 in a total output of 3,SGS. PIP. TAO. The United States also produced over q 100000 pounds of snu1 last year and 334 .4S9110 pounds of smoking tobacco, the latter an in- crease of only about per cent
 The value of all this tobacco product Is not given with exactness, but 1t Is estimated ct over s300,000, ,000 The last three census returns were as fol. lows: For 1880, s116,772,631: for 1890. s195.536. .S62; for 1900. s263, ,977,- 514. At the rate of increase of pro. duction in l90i-5 over the preceding year the estimate of Sod0,000 does not seem excessive.
 An interesting fact in connection with these statistics is that the great bulk of the product is raised here, manufactured here and consumed here Compared with the grand total. imports and exports are relatively in- significant Importation of tobacco in all it's forms last year amount to only a little over $22000.000 and ex. ports to a little over s37000.0 900.
