It is awful hot, the.3- say, in New York and till over the North, but down here in Florida the beat is not oppressive. I have been in Tampa and l'unta (orda and Fort Myers this week and have not suffered. In fact, I found the breezes from the r;u!f delightful at the Port Tampa inn and at Fort Myers nobody com plained of excessive heat. I saw several pretty rirl.s at Myers riding bicycle races on a shell road about 4 o'clock p. m. Tampa is hot, of course, during the day, but the nights are cool. Here at Lakeland, which is the highest point between the Atlantic and the rulf, I had to let down one window sash and pull up the cover to be comfortable. And this is Florida in June. Ridlny in the hot cars about midday is the most unpleasant feature of my tour, for there is always some dust and lio'ntwood smoke, but I ,vt in a smoker and pull oil 1113' coat and let down the window and tr to be calm and serene. On arriving at l'unta Gorda I found it was not boat day and so I had to take the mail hack twenty-six miles through the pine woods for Fort Myers. I was the only passenger, but the one-armed driver was a good talker und told me manv things I did not know. It is a great cattle range and we were hardly everotitof sight of them. There were generally twenty-five or thirty in a bunch, as they call it, and I asked the tlriver why they didn't scatter more. '"The flies, the flies," said he, "There are just so main" Hies to the square yard all through these woods and thev would eat up a cow that got off by herself. You see, that ."iiiii files on one cow would be miehtv bad. but 1, 0(H) divided among thirty lK.aa wouldn't be so bad and thev can rub together and switch their tails against each other and keep them off." There is a cattle kinr; down there whose name is Kin and he owns about 73.000 and other saw scores of young calves with their mothers. The cowboys will be round soon and brand them. ers were beautiful. I plucked sev- j enteen different kinds in a little j space and eat a good bait of whortle-j berries beside. By and by we reach ed the river and saw the town and the orange groves on the other side. The river is a mile and a half wide 1 and has quite a visible current. We crossed in a little dirty sailboat with j a stiff breeze behind us. -and I didn't like it much, nor did I sing "A Life i On The Ocean Wave." were jumping around The tarpon and showing their silver linings, for this river is their home and they go up in schools to lay their spawn and nurse their young brood.

It Harvey, the autor of "Coin's Finan seems that all the region on that ! cial School," a book writteu in favor side of the river was just belov the ' of the free coinage of silver and belt. The Catoosahatchee was the rubicon that the freeze could not cross. Fort Myers is an attractive place. It has possibilities and probabilities in the near future. All it lacks is a j railroad and a hotel large enough to accommodate the tourists. Edison, the famous inventor, has a winter, home here and a laboratory. Mr. McGreggor, the President of the Standard Oil Company, also has a home here. From this point up to Fort Thompson is a rich land region and full of orange and lemon groves and cocoanuts and other tropical fruits. There is a cannery at the town that cans guava jelly on u large scale. General Hancock was stationed here in 1S3G. I saw the dwelling he occupied and where his little daughter was born. She died in New York when eighteen 3-ears I old. It almost broke his heart. He j revisited the fort in 1S78 and seem j ed very sad with his memories. Old I Major Evans told me that the Gen- al said "that dear girl was my 1, . . r-i n .1 t heart s treasure. She was all that j my hopes or expectations could de " i sire.

The straggling Seminoles still eome here occasionally to trade their deer and other skins, but the tribe is doomed. They number now about l')0 and their negro slaves have near ly all left them. The "everglades, where they live, are only thirty miles distant. I visited the experi ment station that is just out of town. It is sustained by the State and has i'.egun its work in earnest. The pineapple patch was flourishing and the plants or suckers are in demand. But the finest pinery is at Punta Gorda. Conductor Davis has im proved one at his home in that town. He has several varieties and even sent to Honolulu for some plants, of the finest variety known to the world. They were four months on the way, but were sound and are growing beautifully. From his lit tle patch of less than half an acre he has already sold fL.lOO worth of suckers. These suckers sprout out from the base of the apple and num ber from ten to twenty on each plant. "When pulled off more come to take their places. As the pineap ple plants North of this latitude were all killed by the freeze, Captain Davis will make far more money in soiling th;.' plants than selling the fruit. lie raises some that are a foot long and of a deep golden color and their meat is fit for the go Is. Twenty of the plants in full fruit will lie sent to the exposition. l'unta Gorda did not come up to my expectations. No orange groves are insight and no shade trees adorn the sidewalks. It is a great ship ping point and has a fine bay and steamboats ply its waters. One hundred and four thousand . tons of phosphate were shipped from there in 1S!4. There were shipped from Port Tampa 1GC.O00 tons during that year and the business is steadily in creasing. Tampa is a wonderful lit tle city. Its population has doubled within five years. It now has 21.000 people and one-third of them are Cubans. The wage money paid out by -the banks amounts to .t;o,000 a week. Just think of it. Ten thous and dollars a day and the most of it spent in Tampa. The product that brings most of this money is burned up by the men and boys. I am burn ing one now while I write, but it was given to me. I like those kind. I never smoked until I was thirty five vears old and there was a war i going on. I wish that every boy j j would wait that long. I have great j ! respect for a young man who does ! not use tobacco. But the most amusing and unique j curiosity I saw in Tampa was the j little midget, General Abe Sawyer, j Dawson, white, shot and killed i stimulus from the Government's re of Key West. He is thirty-one ! a wbite man and a colored woman j port of a decrease of 14.8 per cent, years old and thirty-seven inches j ,im u as SMOt to pieces bv a mob. in acreage, which is not surprising high and of symmetrical form and good features atift well informed on the affairs of the day. He has plenty Gf cheek or self-confidence and en- joys making a speech before an au , dience of ladies and gentlemen j0 has ideas and opinions and dares to express them. He is very choice of his friends. He took a fancy to Mr. Patton, the traveling passenger agent, of the Plant system, and walked about with him in a frater nal way. As Mr. Patton is six feet two inches tall the contrast was very amusing. He is to go to -the expo sition and distribute Mr. Plant's cir culars. Now if any mother will put the yardstick to her two-year-old boy she will realize how small this gentleman is. The children enjoy him greatly. He says he is a gold bug because silver is too heavy for him. He wears fine clothes and claims to be an aristocrat. I saw Tom Thumb forty years ago at Bar 11 urn's and am sure that General Sawyer is not so large or tall. Bill Ari. The-Ai.thor of "Coin" a lVinnlist 1 It has become known that W. II which lias produced a sensation, is a Populist. He refused to participate in the Illinois free silver convention on the ground that he is a Populist and unwilling to affiliate with Demo crats, and it is conceded that he looks to the free silver agitation as a means of disrupting the Democratic party. This fact lias produced con sternation among some of the free " Sinn iiciuiH-mia, iuiu nive uccn o T ,..4 I,.,,-,, ln swearing bv Poll!-- l.iii inr-i il School,'" and it is freely predicted that this book will now prove a boomerang to the effort to commit the Democratic party to free silver. So man' of Harvey's statements have already been proven to be false that it needed only the additional in formation that Harvey is a Populist to place him before Democrats in his true light.

During the past week there has been practical unanimity in the re ports of business expansion from all parts of the country. Railroad earn ings are increasing, bank clearings are a fourth larger than they were a year ago, commercial loans are ex panding, and there is noticeably less hesitancy to engage in enterprises extending into the future. Fre quent announcements of voluntary advances in the wages of mill and factory labor, and steadily rising prices in the cotton goods, iron and steel,, leather and other markets, have substantially attested the hope ful aspect of the industrial situation. West of the Alleghenies there is very little unemployed capacity in the iron and steel industry; and while there is still considerable reserve ca pacity in the Eastern iron districts and in the South, the conditions in both sections are rapidly improving. Textile mills North and South are actively at work; the New England boot and shoe factories are still busy on orders, and minor industries everywhere are feeling the quicken ing effects of the general business revival and return of confidence. The crop news of the week has been more encouraging, although the Government data to the close c f Ma3r has partly confirmed previous unofficial estimates of a considera ble decrease in the yield of winter wheat and of a smaller acreage in cotton. It should be remembered, however, that the ultimate yield of both crops in 1891 was greatly in ex cess of that implied by the June crop estimates of the Federal De partment of Agriculture; and similar results, although perhaps at a small er rate of variation from the official forec asts, may not unreasonably be counted upon during the present season. It is important also in this connection to bear in mind that the corn crop, which has been a short one for three years in succession, gives present promise of an. unpre cedented yield, as the acreage has been largely increased and the condition of the crop at this early stage is most encouraging. Business failures in the United States and Canada during last week numbered 2H5 as against 272 for the corresponding week last year. R. G. Dun & Co.s completed state ments for Mav' show that the aggre gate liabilities were $9,300,281, against $9,787,921 in the same month last year. Cotton prices have received no i when it is considered that the de- crease is from the largest acreage ever planted, and that even after deducting 14. S per cent, the area under cultivation is 20,154,000 acres a total that prior to 1894 had beeu but twice exceeded. Speculation in cotton has been less active, and de mand from spinners and exporters has continued light, although for the crop year to date the shipments to Europe and the takings of home mills have largely ex ceeded those of the previous year. The total visible supply of cotton for the world is .'5,334,755 bales, of which 3,111,355 bales are American, against 3.114,090 bales amX"2,312,990 bales respectively last year. Receipts of cotton during last week at all inte rior towns were (,0t5 bales; re ceipts from the plantations, 5,201 bales; crop in sight, 9,587,132 bales. Wheat prices are 2 to2j cents per bushel lower than they were a week ago, as a result of speculative liqui dation, increased bearish pressure favored by th advancing harvest, and the hesitancy of new investors to operate so 'near to recent top prices now that doubts about the outturn of winter wheat are so close to solu tion by the thrashing machines. Es timates of the probable yield, based on the Government report of acre age and condition, vary from 400,- 000.000 to 420,000,000 bushels; but the larger totals are predicated upon the expectation that the production of spring wheat will be 30,000,000 to 40,000,000 bushels more than it was in 1891. Conservative estimates of the output of winter wheat range from 240,000,000 to 250,000,000 bush els, or approximately 75,000,000 to 85,000,000 bushels less than the crop of last year. The corn crop is in good condition; and this fact, to gether with the depression in wheat and onby a limited export and con sumptive demand, accounts for a de cline of 11 to 2 - cents per bushel in market prices. If it required an annual outlay of lllO (Ml to insure :v fainilv :irr.iinst .inv j serious consequences from an attack of bowel complaint during the year there are many who would feel it their duty to pay it; that they could not afford to risk their lives, and those of their fami ly for such an amount.

The Statesviile Landmark says, that the tax returns of a citizens of Shiloh township, Iredell county, em braced five hogs valued at $1 each, and two houud dogs valued at $23 each. The Record says every list taker in Chatham county is required to carry a Bible with him on which to swear every taxpayer giving in his proper ty for taxation, so that those who swear falsely may be indicted for perjury. The act of the late Legislature making a special annual appropria tion to the Agricultural and Mechan ical College was construed b- the State Treasurer, Friday. As con strued, it gives $7,300 annually in stead of $15,000. Johnnie Sprinkle, of Yadkin coun ty, attempted to commit suicide Wed nesday,' by taking two bottles of laudanum, but was pulled through. Some time ago his wife Tnade the same attempt by taking "rough on rats." It seems that the couple are tired of each other. James R. Holland, the defaulting cashier of the Merchants' and Far mers' National Bank, of Charlotte, was convicted in the United States District Court in that city, Thurs day, and sentenced to seven j-ears at Albany penitentiary. His stealings amounted to $95,000. The lost Legislature passed law taxing lawyers, doctors and den tists and providing that these pro fessions should not be taxed by mu nicipalities. The Citizen says this will cause Asheville to lose $0,000 a year in revenue, the city' having re alized that amount from taxing the professions heretofore. The Roxboro Courier savs there were several applicants for the posi tion of county examiner of Person county and the Clerk of the Court decided the contest in a novel man ner.
