The Florida orange deal is in better

been for several-years. The demand is
exceptionally good and prices have been
on an advance for the past week. Of
ferings are probably as heavy as they
we're this time year ago. This active
demand for Florida fruit is due partly to
very light offerings of California navals
which fruit is not coming in in amount
al all. The market generally on Flori-
da oranges this week was from SO to 81

& Co., who were handling part of ]. r.
Williams account, averaged S351 for
fancies, $3.O2 for choice and $2.97 for
Golden.
Tangerines are-also doing well, sell
ing around TO $3.50 per half box with
one variety OF extra fancy making as

Rev. E. P. Butler, for the past several
years the scholarly, faithful and popular
pastor of the Presbyterian church here,
left on Saturday for Boston, where he
goes for medical and surgical attention.
He was accompanied by his daughter,
Miss Edith Butler. For the past several
weeks Mr.. Butler has rapidly declined
in health, and on the advice OF DIR. G.
E. Henson he visited Jacksonville last
week to confer with physicians there
concerning his trouble. They coun-
seled an operation as the only means of
definitely discriminating the cause, and
on their advice Mr.. Butler decided on
his return home to go 10 Boston, where
his brother-in-law is a distinguished
physician and surgeon, and where he
has the assurance of skilled treatment
and careful nursing among home people.
That Mr.. Buffers condition is serious
is the general impression here, though
no one would reach that conclusion
from the demeanor of the patient, who
was cheerful, hopeful and smiling in the
face of it all. The departure of this
most loveable man and faithful pastor
under such circumstances has cast a
gloom on the place and many good peo-
pie have uplifted themselves in prayer
in his behalf during the past week.
Thinking of him today the News man
could not but compare this faithful
worker in behalf of mankind TO Words
worth's Character of the Happy War
rior"
"Who is the Happy Warrior?
Tis finally, the man, who lifted high,
Conspicuous object in nations eye,
OR left unthought of in obscurity-
Who with Il toward or untOward rot,
Prosperous or adverse, to his wish or not
Plays in the many games of life, that one |
Where what he most doth value must be
Whom neither shape ofdanger can dismaY |
Nor thought of tender happiness betray; |
Who, not content that former worth |
Looks forward, presevering to the last.
From well to better, daily self-surpasc;
Who, whether praise of him must walk |
the earth
Forever, and to noble deeds give birth,
Or he must fall to sleep without his fame,
And leave dead unprohtable name
Finds comfort in himself and in his cause; |
And, while the mortal mist is gathering, |
draws
His breath in confidence of Heavens APP
plause;
This Is the Happy Warrior; this is he
That every man in arms should wish |
to be-"
Considering his several weeks de-
cline, MIR. Butler left Crescent City in
fairly good physical condition to with
stand the operation, which, at best, will
be attended with great danger TO his
life. The people of this city will await
news from his bedside wit h much |
anxiety.
Crescent City had soaking rain last
Sunday. The rain began about 10
o'clock Saturday night and continued
without intermission for rs hours. 1t
was an old time rain and was greatly
needed 1t rained so hard during the
day that church service was abandoned
in nearly, if not quite, all the churches.
