F't. Dodge, Nov. 24.-Carl E. Swan
son, the insane man who entered the
Mcdonald home and tried to restore
the late Mrs. Mcdonald to life, has
been captured by posse of searching

known to be unbalanced, but was re-
garded as harmless. Swanson admits
being insane on religion but appears
rational on all other matters. He will
undoubtedly be committed to the Cher

tating back to the palmettos of ITALIA
hassee. Here he met and married his
wife, the faithful companion, and for
whom he held q strong affection. II
was in 1926 that ne took TO the altar
the beautiful young widow, Catherine
Gray, daughter of Colonel Bird Willis,
Of Willis Hail, Va, and grandniece of
George Washington. Shortly after the
death of her first husband she accom-
panied her father to Florida, where she
met young Achille Murat. Noted for
her grace and beauty, the widow Gray
was of rare qualities of mind, fit to
adorn the gilded chair of throne. The
hope of the Princes life was to see the
Bonapartes restored to power, for in
that restoration he discerned his rising
sun. Until that time he preferred to
be master of his estate in America, and
it was for this reason that the pomp of
the Old World held forth nothing but
visions of greatness denied him To
hold thrcne might have made him a
conspicuous figure in the history of his
day; without it he preferred oblivion.
When the Florida Indian war broke
out his martial spirit led him to the
ranks, and It was not long afterward
that he was commissioned colonel. He
was fond of study, particularly scien-
tific subjects.
He died in lS47, several years before
the restoration of the Bonapartes. He
was not destined TO see the glory Of his
name rise again over Europe, yet his
widow was not forgotten by Louis
Napoleon when he became Emperor.
Louis remembered his cousin Achilles
widow, whom he met in London on one
of his trips abroad, and he settled an
Independent fortune upon her. At his
urgent invitation she was present in
Paris on the occasion Of a family re-
union, where she was received by the
Emperor with honors BETTING her
rank. After short stay at court she
returned to Florida, where she lived
until her death, in 1867. Her body was
laid beside that of the Prince, her hus-
band. The inscription on the marble:

"The Touah WhLte Kia."

The Live Oak Democrat refers to an
important problem. that Of regulating
the tough white kid, as follows: THE
problem OF the tough kid, the tough
white kid. here in the South in every
community, large and small, is also on
hand to veX and harass us, and if not
managed with firmness and decision, il
is going 20 give us great trouble. hardly
less than the race problem itself. The
tough kid is the hoodlum in the tad
pole stage Of his development. and the
hoodlum is the apprentice in crime who
will make his appearance later on as
the pistol-tOting ruffian, murderer and
all-round criminal. The tough kid
should be handled without gloves by
the law II his parents refuse to perform
that office for him"

FlOrida's Prosperity.

There was never time in all her
history when there was so bright q
prospect for general prosperity in Flor
ida as right now. The extraordinary
development of diversified industries
during the past ten years has brought
US Just to that stage of evolution when
we can catch really inspiring Rlimpses
of the marvelously rich and varied re-
sources Of the State as they come into
view like seed sprouting through the
soil. And best of all, Florida Is the
poor mans State eff only the poor man
have intelligent emery, staying quail
ties and fixed purpose TO pull himself
out Of his poverty and achieve indie e.
pendence by his own we'll directed toll.
There isn't another State In the Union
where good trucking and fruit land can
be had 30 cheap nor from which the re-
turns are larger. The saw mills and
the turpentine stills are but the plo-
neers in the development Of the State,
and when their work Is done only the
first thin layer Of our resources will
have been used up, leaving the great
body of our wealth still to draw upon.
