TRIAL WILL BE
 SENSATIONAL

New York, July 2.-The killing of Sanford White, of the Alaska Club, by Harry Thaw has caused great sensa- tion.
 It is asserted that White was arrested short time ago for inducing a 12-year- old girl to enter his apartments; that he frequently committed such outrages, and that not long ago he took a drunken woman home and beat his wife when she tried to stop them.
 Mrs. Thaw will be witness for the defense, and will tell thrilling stories of how girls enter the theatrical profession through pernicious influence. Richard Mansfield will deny this and will help prosecute Thaw.

The above telegram was received by the Yukon Valley News at late hour last Friday afternoon.
 It was passed along the street and publicly read, and its substance bulle tined so that every one might know that a date had at last been set for convening court and granting to the people of this division the justice of which they have so long been deprived by the maehina tions of few agitators at home and an insignificant minority in the United States senate.
 For a moment the town seemed to. hold its breath.
 Then tremendous whoop from some lusty throat cleaved the atmosphere; a bunch of Fourth-of-J uly cannon crack CTS was set off-and such another shake up as the old camp had never known rattled up and down the street and shook the roofs of the public houses and made the glassware tinkle as if tum- bled about by an earthquake.
 All the horses in town were pressed into service and the streets paraded, headed by two mounted men holding aloft streamer inscribed

 Scarcely half dozen men in town were not rejoiced at the stand taken by the president. The community's feel ing regarding the long-drawn-out and bitter assaults on Judge Wickersham's character and the petty and dogged spirit that prompted few men to thwart the wishes of nine tenths of the United States senators was spontaneous in its manifestation. Nothing had been planned and no master of ceremonies was needed. Events simply shaped themselves.
 From the moment the public grasped the meaning of the telegram printed above to or o'clock the next morning Rampant was the scene of one of the most remarkable demonstrations that was probably ever witnessed in so small community.

When Swearing is Useful.

Mindful of how bad the habit is,
but calculating on an experience OF
forty years we stand pat in saying
that the editor of the Pickens Is. CO
Sentinel-Joprnal knows exactly where
he is at and plunks the NAL squarely
on the head in the following item:
Young men, don't swear. There is
no occasion for it outside of the print
ing office, where it is useful when the
paper is behind time. 1t also comes
handy in proof reading and is indis-
pensable when the ink works bad and
the press begins to buck. 1t is some
times brought into use when the fore
man is mad, and it has been known
to entirely remove the tired feeling
of the editor when he looks over the
paper after it is printed. Outside the
printing office it is a foolish thing.

BAPTIsTs AT BARLOW.
Rev. E. S. Rogers Re- Elected Presi-
dent-Best Attendance in the
History of the Association.

Barlow, Jan. 1S.-The Baptist
church was filled to overlooking by 10
a. m, when the gavel of President
S. B. Rogers fell calling the State
Baptist Convention to order.
DR.. w. A. Nelson, pastor of the
First Baptist church, Orlando, read
the twelfth chapter of Romans, offered
an earnest prayer. to God for his
spirit to help the convention in it's
work
The convention reelected Rev. S.
B. Rogers, president, Hon. c. A. Car
son, vice president, Rev. DIR. L. d. Ge-
iger corresponding secretary and
treasurer and Rev. S. c. Reynolds re-
cording secretary.
The reports of the committees on
obligations and aged ministers were
presented by DR.. w. A. Nelson and
II. S. Stephens. 1t is a mild eX-
preston to say they were good.
BY request of the convention, Rev.
DR.. S. c. Mullens addressed the con-
vention on the elements of success in
the makeup Of preacher. DR.. Null
lens is one of the great men of the
south and will rank first-class any,
where and among any people. That
address will be a dream of future joy
to men who give their money to boys
who are struggling with the problem
of getting an education and are hand
icapped by poverty.
1t will stimulate every preacher
energize them to dig out of their BIZ
bles, and their fields a success which
will help everywhere.
The report of the secretary, Rev.
DR.. Geiger, emphasized the activities
and energies of the Florida Baptists
in his repOrtff The total disburse-
ments of his board were over $4,000,
an advance over last year Of several
thousand dollars. This money was
expended for church building, assist
=
salaries and in supporting missionar-
les in part or all in destitute fields.
Barlow, the noble, the good, we will
never forget our experience here
among her good people. May all our
conventions be blessed with such a
gracious host.
The attendance is immense, consid-
ering he width of the territory, per-
haps the best in the history of fifty
years of its life.
The spirit of the convention is the
best-not a caustic remark has yet
fallen, not an unkindness shown its
good cheer. It's let's do better, do
more for the Master next year. Today
viii be a day of toll to finish business,
and tomorrow we will in a body go to
Arcadia and see our orphans and how
the good people enjoy this splendid
work.-Times- Union.

Breeders Gazette Tells of Our
Luxurious Climate, Rich
Soil and Richer Pos
sibiIities.

Florida is without doubt a great
rigors of the northern winter and I'M
der the blue empyrean dome bask in
the effulgence of all-powerful bright
Phoebus. Meanwhile the soft winds
gently watt to the tired and straining
nostrilS of the visitors from the froz-
en- North the rare aroma of citrus
fruits as though from a garden of the
gods, and the gorgeous coloring of the
sub-tropic flowers, the magnificent
grandeur of the great oaks and the
fimbriate featheriness Of the palms
complete a scene entrancingly beau
tiful to the eye and soothing to the
senses. All this calls loudly for immi-
grafton and forces it, but only at set
seasons of the year; but the ephemeral
nature of the transient invasion of
northerners, while greatly beneficial, is
not all that Florida in its possession
of wonderful agricultural and horticul-
tural possibilities deserves. The flu
ture OF Florida is clearly mirrored in
the crystal spring of it's own resources.
Small wonder is it that the eccentric
old Spanish knight Ponce de Leon
sought high and low, far and near, in
this enchanted land for the tabled
fountain of youth. But it is not on its
munificent endowment by a bountiful
nature alone that Florida, now awak-
ening to it's greatness, depends entirely
for its forward march. It's citrus
groves, it's December strawberries, it's
winter vegetables and it's pineapples,
its
Lands of palm and southern pine;
Its lands of palm, of orange bios

OF olive, aloe, and maize and vine."
are but an earnest of the full fruition
the agricultural and stock growing in
dustries that shall make the magnifi-
cence of F'lorida's resources plain to
mankind.
At the Florida state fair held last
year at Tampa a prize of $4,000 was
offered for the best display of any
countys products. This most liberal
premium was won by Marion county,
and in the accounting of the judges
that county was awarded the full
number of points for agricultural pro-
ducts, cereals and live stock. The
herdsman and the dairymaid are des-
tined TO become before long the great
est factors in Marion county's pro-
gress, their work crowning with the
finished product the labors of the far
mer. Marion county, with a climate
that is gently moist and very equable
in temperature, is a veritable garden
spot for the culture of all foodstuffs,
including the casSava, that go to make
stock keeping pleasant and profitable.
The bright shafts of the sun that
make strawberries ripen in December
will put growth into calves, shotes and
lambs if they are merely allowed to
satisfy their appetites on the products
of the teeming soil. Marion county
wants more settlers. 1t has proved it's
resources by actual demon
surest of all guarantees.

@Death To Amerfcanas Printed On

 New Orleans, August That box cars with chalk signs written on them were the origin of the story that pos- ters declaring death to foreigners have been distributed throughout Mexi- co was, the statement of George w. Holmes, representing St. Louis and Memphis Investment Company. who is in New Orleans today on his return from trip through nearly every State in Mexico.
 This talk of danger to Americans in Mexico Is absolutely fooIishness, Mir Holmes said. The only place where there is the least chance of trouble is in the state of Sonora, where condi- tions have been unsettled for several years. 1t is true that President Diaz sent for the governor of Sonora and cautioned him to use every precaution on the 18th of September.
 T am able to give a true statement about the alleged posters declaring that all Americans in the country will be killed on September IS, if they do not leave the country before that time. I was travelling through the country continuously and as is we'll known, there Is an organization of railroad employees which Is antagonis- tic to the Americans. Members of this association, wrote on the various box cars in large letters Tn chalk, Death to the Gringoes on September 16.' The railroads, of course. scattered these cars all over the republic and this gave rise to the poster story"
