Jacksonville, Jan. 3.-Tne federal
grand jury which returned an indict-
ment against w. NJ. Bostwick, Sheriff

laws, has been summoned before fed
eral court tomorrow to testify how
the indictments were reached.
The attorney for Bostwick in filing
a motion today that the Indictment
against Bostwick be quashed, alleged
that no witnesses were before the
grand jury, that Assistant District
Attorney erkes statement of what
he was prepared TO prove was the only
evidence the jury had and that Yerkes
was in the grand jury room when the
jury was deliberating. Federal Judge
Clayton stated that if the allegation
as TO ferkes' presence in the jury
room during the jury's deliberation
was proved, he would quash the in
dictment.
Other men named in the series of
similar indictments would be affected
if the same procedure were followed
IN their cases as is alleged to have

available to the farmers of that coun-
ty a remedy for diseases prevalent in

Take the amount of seed you have

five minutes.
RE move the seed from the solu-
ton and wash thoroughly in two or
three changes of clean, fresh water
to remove the poison.
"The seed now are ready to plant
and should>be planted within few
hours or the same day they are treat
ed The corrosive sublimate solution
Il to 10000 is prepared by dissolving
one tablet (Which may be purchased
at any drugstore) in one pint of wa
ter. This amount is sufficient for a
quarter of pound of seed. Use more
in proportion. Remember that this
substance is deadly poison and
should be kept out of reach of ami

Timely Arrival and Presence of Mind

Thanks TO the timely arrival of
Frank Gates early this morning,
Jcala was saved a very serious fire.
frank had been to Jacksonville and
was returning on the night A. &.
L. train, and decided to stay on the
train and ride uptown, so he got off at
the Broadway crossing.
AS Mr.. Gates left the train he SMELL
ea smoke, but was sleepy and tired, so
he started for home When he reach
ed the Court Pharmacy corner he de-
cided that he ought to see where the
smoke was coming from, so went
back to the railroad and upon looking
around discovered fire on the second
loor of the Merchants block, in a
room over the Farmers Exchange
Store.
Mr.. Gates aroused the fire depart
tent, the members of which rushed
across the street and broke in an east
" dow and attempted to put the fire
ouC with the chemical apparatus.
When the window was opened the fire,
which had been smothering in the
smoke, burst into a blaze and almost
instantly the whole room was in
IlameS.
Two lines of hose were quickly laid
and the flames in the room eXtinguish-'
ed, but fire was still burning between
the ceiling of the Farmers Exchange
Store and the floor of the room above.
1t took over an hour to get the room
sufficiently cleared of smoke to get di-
1ectly at the fire. 1t was burning be-
tween two sills for a distance of
about fifty feet across the front of the
building.
The fire appears to have been the
result of either rats or faulty wiring
1t first started between the ceiling
and floor. The greatest damage sus-
tanned was from water. The stocks
Of the Farmers Exchange Store and
H. W. Tucker were badly damaged
and some goods in the retail store
of the Farmers Exchange were also
spoiled.
If the members of the department
had been equipped with sufficient
smoke helmets so that they could have
once reached the fire, much less wa
r~Swould have been used and the
d d age been less. The smoke was
very dense and prevented anyone go
