This afternoon the books of the Capital City Savings Bank re- ceivership for the receiving ot in- terventions of creditors will close in the chancery court. Fully SOC interventions have already been filed, ranging from $I to SIo, 900; and a few more are expected be- fore the close of the books. This bank, the last negro banking in stitution in the state to close its doors, seems to have depcsitors in every little town in the state, who passed up the banks in their sec tion in order to hoard their earn ings with bankers of their own color. The liabilities will run into the hundreds of thousands, while the assets on property amount to about SIoo ,ooo. The receiver is of the opinion that only about so per cent of the assets are collectable, and the balance must be secured from the officials. C. B. King, the former cashier of the institution, is under indictment in two courts for receiving money on deposit aft CT he knew the bank was insol- vent, and the grand jury is not yet through with the investigation of the mismanagement of the bank.
 Again yesterday Pellis C. Chit wood, a young man of Hot Springs, was found guilty by jury in the Federal court, though his punish ment has not yet been announced. Chitwood was a former employe in the Hot Springs office, and postal inspectors allege they caught him taking articles of value from the mails. They allege he con- fessed to the crimes and signed the confession. Chitwood was tried here on the charge of rifling the mails and convicted on two of the counts in the indictment. An ap- peal was taken and the case re- versed by the United States Circui, Court of Appeals. On the second trial Chitwood was acquitted. He was then indicted for perjury, and was convicted on this charge yes terday, the jury deliberating les: than an hour. The case will be appealed by Col. George w. Mur phy, who defended Chitwood in al of his cases.

Prosperous Florida.

"F1orida looks prosperous" said M +.
Young, a member of New York fru it
firm, to the New York Packer mar
There seems to be evidence of pro s.
perity on all Sides I noticed partich-
1ar1y that every little hamlet is gettin g
bank, and facilities for doing business
are growing with prosperity. The late
bloom of the orange crop came on fas t.
er than was anticipated, consequently
there was great deal of fruit on THE
market by the first of the year. I III 4
derstand that the average price Of O r
anges on the trees was ST. 50 and grape
fruit ranged from $1.5o to ST. 50 on the
trees, according to quality.
II do not remember now which esti-
mate among those which have appearGd
in the papers was considered the nea r.
est to the mark, but [ believe the sta tie
has two-thirds of the citrus crop of
last year, and if we don't have freeze
or some sort of parasite does not
affect the trees, I am of the opinion
that there will be a pretty big crop
next year, as the foliage looks fine al id
the trees healthy and strong."- w

Good Advice.

Within the last year or two the
demand for real estate in Leesburg
has been good, and many sales have
been made to both residents and nom
residents. During those two years the
prices of lots and lands have beer
gradually increasing and they are not
now above their real values-fctitiouS
values have not been put upon them
Our property holders should however
be wise and not make the mistake thai
many Florida towns have made BY
holding property at such high figures
that buyers will not want it. We dG
not believe that such a. policy as thai
will ever be adopted by many OF ou +
property holders. The way to keep d
town improving is for every man who
has property to sell, especially uninl
proved property, to sell it at q
reasonable price, so that buyers Will
accept it, build upon it and improve it,
Any other policy would be suicidal. A
grasping or get-rich-quick policy wi II
kill any town-it has killed many
towns Leesburg has never followed
such plan, and if her people are wise
they never will follow it.

Government Lands"

The Agriculturist receives a great
many Inquiries concerning lands sub
ject to homestead entry in Florida, and
we desire again to say that while there
is. much of this kind of land in the
various sections of the state, it is not
to be recommended for general pur-
poses. Most of such land is so far from
transportation that it will be found
much more profitable to pay a fair
price for desirably located property than
to accept this as a gift. The quantity
of land needed to enable one to make
a comfortable living at fruit and truck
growing in Florida is so small that
it's first cost is not to be considered in
comparison with it's convenience to
transportation and access to market.
If one desires to engage in raising
cattle or other live stock, making it
necessary to have large bodies of land
for grazing purposes, then the cheaper
land is all right, and we would refe1
inquirers for such to the United States
Land Office, Gainesville, Fla.

He Needs a Home.

A commuter, who rides two hours
each morning to reach his work and
two hours more at night to get home,
was asked: "Why do you do it? Why
not live in town.
Because | am one of those men, -
he answered, "who cannot be happy
unless he has one spot of land on
Gods green earth upon which he can
stand and call it his own. Because
I would suffocate to live all my life
under a roof belonging to some one
else. Because I want my children to
grow up with the instinct of home
and not as mere dwellers in the tents
of the migrating races. These are the
reasons why I get up at daybreak and
at this time Of year, eat my dinner by
the gaslight. '-Cleveland Plain Dealer

Money in Bananas.

C. A. Killer has banana grove that
is nine days wonder. It consists,
roughly estimated, of one-eighth of an
acre, and at present there are more
than 200 fine punches on the plants
matured and almost ready for market.
Mr.. Killer WHOLESALERS his fruit readily
at a dollar per hundred, and as the
punches easily average 100 fingers to
the bunch, the result is readily obtained.
These bananas are grown in damp soil
without fertilizer and very little care,
so that the returns are clear proft.-St.

Big Cattle Deal.

The largest cattle deal ever consum-
mated in this county was made here
last Tuesday, when E. L. Lesley pur-
chased the entire stock of cattle, en-
bracing several marks and brands, of
J. F. O'Berry, together with his half
interest in pasture lands, valued at
$4,000, and owned jointly by OBerry
and c. A. Carson.
The cattle are estimated to number
about 5000 head, and the consideration
for the cattle and lands was $4,000.
Mr. Lesley now owns more cattle
than any other individual in the state,
and is indeed and in fact, the cattle
king Of Florida.

Oil in Florida

Joe Stump is boring for oil in Wash

of land covering supposed oil field.
Quincy people are convinced that they
have oil in paying quantities in Gads-
den county. The Pearson Company
continues to search for it in Citrus and
adjoining counties. Oil has been found
in several localities, but not in paying
quantities. Many men Of intelligence
believe that an oil field riva1ing that at
Beaumont will yet be found in Florida
