BIG 'GLAOES DEAL is MADE
GOV. BROWARD GETS S1,O16.OOO.
PURCHASER MUST DRAIN A
5O8,OOO ACRE TRACT.

A Jacksonville dispatch says: For
the sum of $1,016,000 the Interna-
tional Improvement Board of Florida
several days ago sold to R. j. Bolles
of Colorado a total of 5OS,O00 acres
of Everglades lands, in alternate sec
lions, which will in future years be
used in the extensive cultivation of
sugar cane. Every detail of the big
deal was closed, and little time will
elapse before Mr.. Bolles and his asso-
ciates will begin their important
work of development, says the Me-
tropolis
The terms of the sale are as fol-
lows: Half of the purchase price
goes to the state for it's individual
use, while the remainder, according
to agreement of the Internal I'M
provement Board, will be devoted ex-
clusively to the drainage of the land
purchased by the digging of canals.
The land is to be paid for at the rate
of $4,000 per year for three years,
the remainder being paid in full in
the two years following.
Wv n. d. DIOWdIU, VINO, WIN
United States Senator w. M. Milton
and Controller A. c. Groom, is in the
city today, confirmed the report of
the sale, saying it had been entirely
cOnsummated, and that the purchas-
ers would eventually operate on an
immense scale, making the Ever
glades one of the principal sugar
producing sections of the world.
The contract with Mr.. BoIles
makes absolutely necessary the con-
tinuance of drainage work in the
Everglades, thus ending a fight that
has lasted throughout Gov. Bro
wards administration, and that has
attracted attention throughout the
entire country. The successful
drainage of the vast area of swamp
lands, thousands of acres of which
have in recent months been sold to
other parties under practically the
same contract, will mean millions of
dollars to the state hereafter.
Gov. Broward was congratulated
by many friends upon the successful
elimination of the big land deal.

have been wiped out, with the num-
Der of dead in that district alone ex-
ceed1ng thirty thousand. The few
survivors are mad with terror and
have fled to the forest clad noun
tain slope, where they are subsisting
on roots and the bark of trees.
AS further facts concerning strick-
en- Messina becomes available they
corroborate in every detail the worst
fears heretofore expressed. The Ca
thedral, municipality buildings, bar
racks and prisons are all DESTROYED.
while at Reggie the silence of death
still reigns, and leaves to the imagf-
nation the terrible havoc wrought by
the catastrophe.
OF Messina's 10000 population it
is believed that fully 10000 persons
persisted. Forty thousand people
died in Reggie.
Streets Appear Enormous Crevasses.
One of the Messina survivors says
only a small proportion of the total
population escaped. Thousands of
persons are still buried alive in the
ruins, where they are suffering slow

fused masses of wreckage. In many
cases the streets appear as enor-
nous crevasses, twisted into the
most fantastic shapes. All public
monuments have entirely disappear
ed, all water pipes, sewers and gas
pipes of the city have been de-
stroyed, and the water and filth are
flooding the torn streets.
Entire Population of City Dead.
The town of Bagnara, with a popu-
lation of ten thousand, is completely
wiped out, and all the inhabitants
dead. Such fragmentary news as
has been received from Reggie goes
to confirm the previous report that
the city has been practically oblit-
Grated.

THE FAMILY is MIXED.
1t Presents the Prize Matrimonial
TangIe.

A bewildering relationship among
members of two East Finley, Pa,
township families have resulted
from the marriages of a farmer and
his two sons and a widow and her
two daughters. The three cere-
monies were celebrated within the
last two months.
Henry Dillinger, an aged farmer.
whose second wife died nearly a
year ago, engaged Mrs. Maria Rich
mond as his hOusekeeper 1t was
agreed that two daughters of Mrs.
Richmond, Lucy, aged Is, and Jen-
ME, aged 10, should live in the Dill
linger home with the father and his
two sons, Charley and David. After
a time the aged farmer married
Lucy Richmond, and the two fami-
lies continued to occupy the same
house.
A few weeks after the first mar
riage Mrs. Richmond became the
wife of David Dillinger, the elder
son. Jennie Richmond and Charley
Dillinger were next stricken with the
matrimonial fever, and were married
last week
The three families now live in the
East Finley township home of the
elder Dilling6r, all apparently happy
and contented.

THE BIGGEST HOG RANCH
MONTANA FARMER WILL FAT
TEN HIS PORKERS ON
ALFALFA TEA"

DR.. w. X Suddeth has decided to
establish hog raising farm on his
large ranch in the Musselshell val
ley, in Yellowstone county, Mont,
and he will grow and fatten hogs
on alfalfa tea" a brew which he
has been experimenting with.
The doctor returned to Billings,
Mont, recently from Omaha, where
he disposed of nearly 400 head of
cattle for record breaking prices, and
brought with him L. T. Rankin of
Springfield, ILL.,, who will have charge
of the hog ranch in the Musselshell
While in Omaha they purchased a
hundred brood sows for the ranch,
and the doctor expects to go to Oma-
ha in the near future and purchase
400 more brood sows, it being the
aim of the doctor and his associates
to raise and fatten in the neighbor-
hood of 1000 hogs each year.
The swine are to be fed on "alfal-
ia tea," as the doctor calls it, This
tea is a brew with which the doctor
has been experimenting. 1t is made
by grinding alfalfa, barley, winter
wheat and cereals together and then
cooking them. The alfalfa stalks,
the doctor says, contain more protein
than many grains, and by cooking
them this food substance will be Sc
cured and fed to the hogs in the
slOp. He says that experiments
which have been conducted with this
alfalfa grain diet show it to be a
wonderful food on which to grow and
fatten hogs.

TOSSED COAL FROM TRAIN.
An EmplOye on SeabOard Air Line
Freight Train Is Detected.

A novel process of touching" the
railroad company in these trying
times of scarce fuel was detected
yesterday as an incoming Seaboard
freight rtain from Montgomery en-
tered the yards. In the train were
several loaded coal cars, and at a
convenient point two of the negro
train hands got busy as the train pro-
ceeded very slowly. Huge chunks
of coal were tossed from the cars by
the two negroes, it is said, who
doubtless thought the little sideplay
unObseved. But an officer saw them
and the matter was promptly report
ed to Chief Feagin, who in turn re-
ported it to the railway authorities
and asked for instructions. 1t is said
that something like 200 or 800
pounds of coal was thrown off the
cars at the point indicated, in front
of the house of negro woman

Sell ana POISOnS Babes.
Mrs. Georgia Ah-Wong, American
wife of George Ah-Wong, a Chinese
resident of Plano, H., committed
suicide by throwing herself beneath
the wheels of a Burlington train
after she had administered poison
to her four children, killing one of

child was Ila Ah-Wong, three years
old. The others, who are suffering
from the effects of powerful doses
of wood alcohol, are Crissey, II
years old; Walter, 10 years old and
Herbert, five years old.
A note left behind by the woman
indicated the unhappiness of her ex-
istence as the wife of a native of the
orient. 1t read:

rest, but no one will lead my girl

ROME. Italy.-The details of one
of the most appalling disasters re-

are being unfolded in dispatches
coming in from Calabria, Sicily. 1t
is story of indescribable horror and
calamity.
The earthquake of Monday
wrought havoc and destruction that
cannot be estimated. italy is
stunned by the visitation described
as the worst disaster in the memory
Of living man, yet the full measure
of the catastrophe has not yet been
taken.
Half the population of Calabria
and the eastern part of Sicily are
dead and the other half weeping.
As the great extent of the terrific
seismic disturbance becomes appar-
ent it seems impossible to exaggerate
the horrors which have followed
them. The calamity which has over
Whelmed Italy is almost beyond the
grasp of the imagination, not only be-
cause of the dead, now known to
number tens of thousands, but be-
cause of the innumerable wounded
buried in the ruins, many of whom
have persisted.
From the latest estimates it is
feared the total number of victims
will reach nearly two hundred thou
sand, while the damage to property
VIII be several hundreds of millions.
