The Isle of Man.

The people of the Isle of Man. called
by the peculiar appellation OF Manx-
men. are known to the world at large
chiefly through the peculiar creatures
who inhabit the pages of Mr.. Hall
Gaines novels. Many an American
tourist has visited the island just to
see if there are really people like that
to be found.
While disappointed in this respect.
the tourist has no reason to complain.
The Isle of Man is an interesting little
body of land. in appearance, history
and population. 1t is a compact ex-
hibit of variegated climate and seem
cry, a continent in miniature. There
are coastal cliffs and beaches. rolling
lowlands, rounded hills and craggy
mountain ranges. all within a ten-mile
stretch, for the whole island is only
about twelve miles wide. Nature has
green and yellow. The lower hills are
smoothly forest-covered, while the
plain is golden, with a wealth of gorse
such as you see in no other part of the
island kingdom.
The people of the Isle of Man have
the distinction of belonging to a sep
arate and individual branch of the
Celtic race. They share with the Irish
the privilege of claiming st. Patrick as
a patron-there is not a snake to be
found on the island. In appearance
they are rather more like the Scotch
dark Scotch. Light eyes and complex
ions combined with black hair give the
most commonplace of them something
of a striking appearance. Their old ma
tional costume of homespun was pic
turesque to the last degree, but the
ruthless advance of the hand me down
has apparently routed it,
The ManXmen are farmers and fisher
men-fshermen first, and herring fish
ermen above all. They regard the her
ring as the king of sea fish, and re-
spect him both as a source of revenue
and an article of diet. There is a story
of an old-time English nobleman who
by series of unexpected deaths came
into the oTerlordship of the Isle of
Man. His new vassals received him
coldly-he was not one of the elect
But in duty bound they gave him
banquet; and his lordship, seeing how
matters stood and knowing his people,
sat him down and ate twenty-four her
ring. That settled it, He was hailed
with open arms as a Manxman dyed
in the wool.

of " n. Ridgely, harbor master, the
young lad would have drowned.
The young boy was fishing with a

tied slipped out of his hand into the
water. 1t was beyond his reach and
he went home and donned his bath
suit, thinking he could swim out and
get the spear. He dived off the end

was so exhausted that he was only
able to reach piling and cling to it..
In the meanwhile his mother became
SO uneasy about him that she started
to the pier to see what had become
of him. Just as she was nearing the
pier she heard the screams of the
boy and summoned aid. v. N.

TOTAL LOSS FROM FIRE

Jacksonville, Oct. 6.-Fire which
originated in the fuel room of the

ber Company, at Green Cove Springs,
yesterday, totally destroyed the
sawmill, entailing a loss Of property
value at approximately $150,000,
with full insurance No lumber.
other than that which was in the
mill for handling, was lost, and none
of the other buildings of the COM
pany were damaged.
The fire was discovered about
4:40 o'clock by the night watchman,
who turned in an alarm. Heroic eff
forts of volunteers and mill employees
saved greater loss, and the flames
were confined to the building in
which they originated. Had they
spread to other buildings and the
lumber yard the loss would have been
many times that which was en-
tailed.
The sawmill was modern plant of
about 125, 200 feet daily capacity,
and was one of the largest in this
section All the machinery was de-
stroyed, or so badly damaged it will
be useless.
Practically the entire town of
Green Cove Springs turned out to as
sist in fighting the flames, and for
two hours the volunteers battled in
a terrific heat to save the destruc-
tion of the other buildings of the big
lumber company, which is the towns
Iprincipal industry.
officials of the company this morn
ling stated that insurance companies
which held policies covering the mill
had been notified of the fire, and that
adjustments probably would be
speedily made.
President Bowling, of the company,
stated the sawmill would be rebuilt
at once.

GRAPEFRUIT ALREADY BEING
SHIPPED FROM MIAMI

Miami, Oct. 6.-With the country
in far better financial condition
than for several years past, grape
fruit growers have every confidence
of very profitable year.
The crop itself is not expected to
be as large as last season, but from
the early shipments, which have
been very few thus far, the condi-
tion of the fruit is as good as ever
before, il not better.
Speaking of the Dade county crop
yesterday, Paul Jaudon, of Jaudon
Brothers, local packers, stated that
the growers of this county will have
in the neigh borhood of 10000 boxes
of the fruit, and everything points
to fine crop in point of quality.
Mr.. Jaudon said that the growers
did not have as good prices last sea-
son as might have been expected,
and attributes this to the condition
Of the country at that time. Many
men were out of employment, he
said, while business conditions were
unsettled.
Season for Luxuries 3.
"Since them said Mr.. Jaudon.
business throughout the country
has been booming and there is plen-
ty of money in circulation, hence
there will, no doubt, be a heavier de-
mand for fruit and other luxuries .
Mr.. Jaudon says that it is the mid
die class of people who are the great
est buyers of fruit, and when they
have not the money it is strongly
felt among the fruit and vegetable
growers.
Shipments Begin
