sTRoeHAR WILL FACE CHARGE.
Has Given $4,000 Bond and Will Re-
turn to GainesviIle-Is Merry
and Collected.

j. n. Strobhar, brought to Atlanta
Friday from Montreal, Canada, and
lodged in the Tower, in that city, is
at liberty again. He was released on
a $4,000 bond.
Strobhar arrived in Atlanta in
the custody of Detective Lockhart,
who went to Canada to get him, says
the Atlanta Journal. Solicitor Hill in
formed him that his bond had been
fixed at $4,000, and that in default of
such bond he must go to Jail. Strob-
har could not then make his bond, so
he went to the Tower in Atlanta for
the night.
Attorney Reuben Arnold, who had
been retained by the prisoner, and
Mrs. StrObhar, wife of the latter, who
arrived in Atlanta from Florida on
Friday, began to make efforts to Sc
cure bondsman.
A well known Atlanta banker agreed
to sign the bond, and his signature
was accepted by Solicitor Hill Dep
uty Sheriff Parkinson went to the
Tower and brought the prisoner to
the Office of Sheriff helms, where. in
the presence Of his wife, Strobhar
signed the bond and was released.
He stated that he would remain at
the Kimball House until Monday,
when he would depart for Gainesville
Fla, to face the charges against him
there. He snvited Detective Lockhart
to visit him at Gainesville.
Strobhar is accused of misappro-
priating about $4,000 belonging to the
Atlantic Coast Line Railroad, (for
which he was agent at Gainesville,
Fla. He is charged with having cash
ed two checks amounting to about
$1,SO0 at an Atlanta bank, and it is 90
the charge of misappropriating the
funds realized on those checks that
he was indicted there.
Strobhar is apparently about so
years of age. His hair is slightly
gray and his build is heavy. He is
man OF pleasant address and seemed
very cool and collected yesterday. His
wife is very good looking woman
and seems devoted to him.
His bond is made returnable to the
session of the criminal branch of the
superior court, which convenes jan
uary 22nd.

pOrtant part in the development Of the
gulf coast country of Texas. 1t is un
doubtedly the hardest variety Of edi
BILE orange known and has extended
the so-called orange belt several hun
dred miles north. The fruit is very
thin skinned, of exquisite flavor and
will pack from $50 to 220 to the box.
The color is more red than yellow and
shows up very handsome when packed
or on the trees. As the fruit begins
to ripen in October, which is the time
when the market is almost bare of
oranges, it will always command a
good price. Owing TO the ease with
which the segments separate and its
fine quality it has no superior as a
dessert fruit.

BIG NAVAL BATTLE AT SEA.
Not Iron cIads but Great Monsters
OF the Deep-Fisht the Fight of
Death.

Passengers of White Star liner
from Liverpool recently witnessed an
exciting battle between a whale. sew
eral swordfsh and a thrasher shark.
The fight lasted for more than an
hour.
The combatants were first sighted
about IL o'clock in the morning, says
the New York News. A great dis
turbance was noticed in the water
ship. Just what the trouble was was
not ascertained until the ship was
within half a mile of the scene of the
encounter. Then the passengers saw
n big whale beset by half a dozen
large swordfsh. and a monster thrash
er shark, the fiercest and most vora-
cious OF his kind. The water was
being dashed into foam, which was
tinged with blood. 1t was evident that
the fight had not been in progress
long. as the combatants seemed to be
active.
The whale was flashing the water
with his tail and was standing off his
antagonists, although he was greatly
outnumbered. Several Of the sword
fish would attract his attention in
front while others would steal around
10 attack him broadside. The thrash
er's great tail was busy failing the
whales back at every opportunity.
The passengers were spellbound by
the sight, and their sympathy was
with the whale. AS the battle con-
tinued the water dor several hundred
yards about was dyed a deep red. The
whale was terribly gashed in many
places by the swordfish, which moved
with incredible speed, and it was only
occasionally that the whale was able
To strike with effect. Each time
Swordhsh was hit it seemed to take no
further interest in the battle.
Before the ship was out of sight
the thrasher was disabled, a blow of
the whales big tail striking him full
on the head. One Of the passengers
who had a long pair of glasses said
he saw the whale swim away and that
the swordlish did not follow him.

The Sight Was Pitiful.

\ large number of people gathered
around the convicts being transferred
from Ocala to Perry at the union de-
pot the other night. Many of the pris-
oners were known to the people here
and some conversed with them. They
were given dinner here, and while all
showed good treatment and were in
good spirits. the spectators sympa-
thized with them, and especially with
the two white men. The convicts in
the state certainly have a hard time.
and the present diabolical system Of
selling them i'm slavery should be alb
