my life, l think, as I saw on the
streets of Tallahassee last Saturday
afternoon. They were in town for the
Saturday trading and there were ten
negroes to one white.
Leon county, in which Tallahassee
is situated, has population of about
$4,000, and at least 10000 or more
are negroes. This is in the black belt
and all the counties of this section
have negro population of two or
three to one white.
The favorite conveyance for the
black here seems to be an OK hitched
to a'wagon. He Is driven by lines
attached to his horns.
In western Florida they are raising
tobacco under shade. Whole tracts

three times as much as the ordinary
tobacco. 1t is a new discovery and Is

Here Ia a fish story l heard down
on the St Johns. At certain seasons
of the year mullet come up the river
in great schools Then an easy way to
catch them is to row out in a boat
and hold a lantern or torch up few
feet. The foolish fish will jump out
of the water in the direction OF the
light and fall in the boat. Some times
they come so fast that the fishermen
hardly have time to extinguish the
light in time to save his boat from
sinking under the burden of the great
quantity of fish.
