To Test the Anti-Seine Law

According to an exchange one hun
dred and fifty dollars has been sub
scribed in the neighborhood of Stuart
to test the legality of the new fish
law in regard to using seines on the
St. Lucie River. In our opinion the
subscribers had better saved their
money as the new law is as strong as
it could be worded and will be sus-
tained by the courts. If it is not so
held there will be no use framing
new laws any more.

Citrus Associations Organized

Mr.. ]. A. Reid, who has been or
ganizing sub exchanges and aSsocia-
tions all over the state for the Flori-
da Citrus Exchange, addressed the
orange growers of this section at the
courthouse Monday night, at which
there was quite large and credita-
BILE attendance.
Mr.. P. w. Roberts acted as chair
man, explained the object of the
meeting and introduced the speaker.
Mr.. Reid's talk of the methods of
the exchange was most interesting
and instructive, and ne answered all
the questions propounded most salts
factorily.
1t seems that the growers now
thoroughly understand the system
of proposed marketing and they will
join the local associations to be at
once organized, and thereby they
will give the movement their hearty
endorsement and support.
Associations were formed that
night, after Mr.. Reid had left for
Fort Pierce, for Minis and Titusville.
Courtenay had already organized and
made application for a charter, City
Point organized Wednesday night,
and it is expected that Shiloh and
Canaveral will also organize.
Most of these associations will be
in favor Of making Titusville their
sub exchange on account of our tel
egraphic facilities for communicate
ing with the Tampa Office and our
excellent shipping facilities.
After addressing the pineapple
growers at Fort Pierce Tuesday Mr.
Reid left direct for his home in Los
Angeles, Cal, where his duties with
the California exchange demand hi:
immediate attention.

Governor Weeks.

Acting Governor Weeks IS a success
full business man of quiet tastes, but
he has never held political Office out
side of his own city and the politicians
are in ignorance as to his probable poll
AS a worker and adviser in the repub-
lican cause he has hitherto been class
ed as regular" showing few indica-
lions of aggressiveness in action or re-
sentiment in wrong. Governor Weeks
in a position of power and sworn re-
sponsibility, however may turn out to
be an altogether different person from
Mr.. Weeks, the obedient soldier in the
ranks. 1t Is stated that he will follow
out the policies Of Governor Lilley, but
whether he win endorse all his dead
predecessors intentions or whether he
will press their causes with the mill
tant vigor which characterized their
champion is yet to be determined.
There will be opportunity for demon
stration soon when the acting govern
or makes known his attitude toward
the public utilities bill, measure dear
to Governor Lilley's heart. but already
in extremis and intended for an imme-
date legislative funeral His course
in the appointment of judges to the
superior court bench will also be
watched with keen interest. The act
ing governors position in the matter
of these appointments Is one of deli
cacy. The legislative session is by no
means ended yet. There is much which
may be accomplished by a man of
force determination and discretion

Some OF the oldest names have been
lost for no such excellent reasons as,
for instance, Pudding lane and Long
Acre road, the latter the part Of ire
mont street opposite the Granary
Burying Ground. The alphabetical
names OF the new lands of the Back
Bay were chosen to some extent for
the sake of British statehmen of high
degree who had been friendly to the
American colonies in the time of their
need. II is 9 curious fact that the
name "St Botolph," although it enters
into the composition Of the word Bos-
ton. and though it was for the sake OF
the self-exiled rector Of that famous
old church that the town name was
brought across the seas, did not make
its appearance in its entirety as the
name Of any street or institution or
organization until the last quarter of
the 18th century though after its in
PRODUCTION it found extensive favor i'm
mediately There is nothing more
gratifying in a name than a historic
suggestion of relationship of some
kind; and no new names should be
fixed upon streets or squares without
some earnest and intelligent thought
being given to this consideration-Bos-

1t relates to the payment of $4,000
tc the local parish that was intended
for new building by the late Mrs.
Boardman, but which is being Ques-
toned by Trinity college corporation;
although it is believed now that the
corporations officials may be willing
to relinquish their claim, as 1t has
been said that prominent Episcopal
ianS in the state are leaning toward
the Willimantic church.
Attorney William A. King asked
that the case of James M. Grant an
appeal from probate, be tried May 10,
stating that as there was considerable
criminal business to be disposed Of
next week and possibly later that he
would allow it to remain for assign
ment until next Friday.
Arthur DeBruycker VS.. Anthony
Blum was the first on the short cal
endar list and motion to amend an
swer was granted. In George c. Toop-
lifts appeal from probate, agreement
was made that bond Of SIS be filed
within one week
The case of Lester II. Burnham VS..
Frank H. Deming was the only one
argued, Attorney William A. Arnold
arguing for Deming and Attorney
George w. Melony appearing for

to bind the bargain. Plaintiff claims
to have paid balance of the money and
mortgage, and that defendant refused
the tender; he claims 81 900 damages
and that sale be consummated accord
ing to agreement.
There. was a written agreement, but
the sale was not effected on the day
stipulated in the contract, the men
meeting on Sunday, August 80. Mr..
Deming endeavoring to give the mon
ey back to Mr.. Burnham, the latter
refusing to accept same. Attorney
Arnold argued that as plaintiff tried
to close the deal on Sundaysthe con-
tract was void and cited various cases
Of similar nature. Attorney Me-
lony eontended that the deal was not
made on secular day as the written
agreement showed, and that although
the two men met by mutual agree
ment on such a day for convenience
the deal was actually effected when
the written agreement was made, and
the first installment of money was
paid, which was not on Sunday. Both
attorneys are to file briefs within a

CHARLES cAPwELL's DEATH.
UnsoNed Mystery Recalled by Find
ing of McComber's Body.


The unsolved mystery surrounding
the death of Charles Capwell in Wood
stock, about dozen years ago, is re-
called by the McComber case. Cap
well, a young man, was found dead
IN the road with a terrible bruise
across the forehead just over the eye.
The body was found In the morning.
He had left Southbridge the night be-
fore, driving pair Of horses attached
to heavy team. The horses were
found short distance from where the
body lay in the middle of the road.
Relatives attempted to secure an in
vestigation of the case, but none was
ever made. Suspicion pointed to
Woodstock man, but it was not based
on sufficient evidence to warrant an
arrest.
Capwen may have been killed by
falling from his team, though many
things led to the belief that his death
was due to blow with e. heavy club
Ia the hands Of an enemy.
