THE ALEXANDER JONES. She Was Again Halted at Jacksonville on Friday by the United States ' Cruiser Vesuvius What Captain Adklns Says. The following Is from the Jacksonville Florida Times-Union of Saturday: - ; The tug Alexander Jones, made con spicuous by her alleged connection with the filibustering operations in' the neighs borhood of Fernandina last Sunday, ar rived at Jacksonville last night, towing in the schooner Marion. The 'Jones picked up her tow a few miles to the eastward of Cumberland sound bar soon after laving Fernandina yesterday., morning at 10 o'clock. Captain J. J. Adkins has charge of the Tones. He was visited last night by a Times-Union man and asked about the re cent sensations connected with his trim little vessel. "That. was certainly a blank cartridge," he said, "We had no idea of filibustering, nor have we yet. Now, today we left Fernadlna, seeking for work, and got It. I suppose It will be said that we will filibuster. I do not like the reputation at tached to my tug by the false accusations. I cannot go anywhere without someraie Is on my track, prying into matters that are purely cf a private nature. Tonight, as we came over tne bar, an officer from the cutter Boutwell came aboard and asked for me and my name. I gave it very readily. He told me to stop If thetutter should blow four whistles. I replied to this request that I thought I knew what to do when such a number of whistles are blown. We passed the Ve, suvius anchored outside. I expects to leave port in a short time. He was told that lr he stayed In these waters very long, he would be suspected of connection with the Cubans, and the genial captain said: "If that be the case, I think I shall leave in the morning." The Jones is an old timer, and not quite so large as the Three Friends,' while she Is considerably larger than the Dauntless. Her cabin is painted a light color, and the commodious quarters for both men and officers render the tug a paradise com pared with many of. the vessels of her class. The speed or the Jones is not very great in fact, it is entirely too slow for her to engage in any undertaking where neetness is required. The Times-Union of Sunday says: i The steamers Kate Spencer and Three Friends came up the river yesterday and remained during the day. Both tugs had a brush with the vessels belonging to Uncle Sam as they passed them by. 1 The Kate Spencer crossed the bar early In the morning and headed nortneast in search of a tow. When off Cumberland sound bar the cutter Colfax signaled, but the Kate refused . to stop according to the signals. The Colfax, then seeing : the tardiness on the part of the tug to slow down, began to clear, her decks and the old story of "running out the gleaming pieces of brass through the well-deflned portholes, etc.," was gone through with in every detail. The spencer nnaiiy stop ped her engines and the Colfax approach ed her. The officer of the Colfax instructed the Spencer never to run after being ordered to halt. He asked the Spencer's crew where the vessel was going, and on re ceiving the reply that she was hunting for a tow, the question, "What kind of a tow?" was asked, and the crew then an swered, "Any kind." The Colfax left the Spencer after the questions had been an swered satisfactorily and proceeded, to ward the bar. ; Yesterday afternoon as he Three Friends attempted to come up the fiver the cutter Boutwell stopped her progress at Sister s creek, and the officers asuea several questions regarding the tug s, des tlnatlon and business. i After her arrival In port she was tied up at John Clark s wharf to take on coal During that time Captain McCormlck, United States deputy marshal, was seen and .asked what he had seen while down the river. "What have I seen? Well, the Vesuvius was still riding at anchor out side wallowing In the heavy seas lijke a mahogany log. By the way, I saw the tug Alexander Janes going-out this morn ing, and I'll tell you she's a vessel we saw off Cape Canaveral when we were coming up the coast with the Yellow Kid and two lighters in tow. I thought at the time the strange vessel sighted was up to some meanness and now, since her eonnection with the Bermuda, I feel certain that the Jones Bas carried more than one cargo of arms and ammunition to the filibuster. "Yes, we passed, her and she steered clear of us for awhile, ho mucn . bo, m fact, that I could only see her smoke stack, but that was characteristic of the craft, and l recognized ner tnis morning.

This is the first shipment of cauliflower this season. I " There Is more Catarrh in this section of th country than all other diseases put. together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pro. Bounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Sci ence has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and, therefore, requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co. , Toledo , Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoon ful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address, - F.J.

This morning a ."northern1 tourist" walked into the lobby of the Chattaw k)a 'hotel, and sneeringly remarked': "This "is a mischief of a place. Just see the -whole town turn out. to witness a fight between a cur dog and a billy goat!" ". , : , iSufe enough just around the corner, a big crowd of whites and blacks were, assembled, and dozens of others were swarming to the spot. In the middle of the street, a medium sized "William goat" was stubbornly defending hlm selif agalni the attacks of four cur dogs, that were snapping at him, front and rear. The crowd yelled whenever either side scored a "point. The dogs were mad, and the goat wan furiously so. He quickly commenced aggressive tactics; Gathering himeslf together until his small muscular Ibody looked like ,a big hairy ball, he began the . most terrific battle of the kind, that the writer ever .witnessed. With lightning like rapidity he knocked ou't every dog in the gang. Seemingly mad beyond control, be butted a mule nearly off its feet and charging upon a dray- which .Was passing, he struck one df the wheels a whack, which "sound ed like a steatmboat collision." With h'fs horns locked in the spokes, he revolved with the. wheel until extricated by sev eral men, ' upon whom the ferocious an imal turned, both- butting and biting Hke a devil.' 1' "Deliver me from the gratitude of a goat," remarked a prominent citizen, who, with the writer, was viewing the trouble, from a safe vantage ground. The monster finally landed on the ribs of an old darkey, mashing his watch into "pie," and biting him on the leg. A rope and chain were brought and with much difficulty his "goatship" was bound and dragged from the thor-i puglnf are. These are facts with fully half of the battle letf t out- It is supposed that the ariimal.had iswallowed a copy of the New York World with he account toy J ohn L.

The perfect running machine is noise less. Loose tools will rattle and should be so wrapped that they will not be heard from; a; jingling sound usually means, that, spokes have broken loose from their fastenings at crossing points; a distinct click indicates spokes loosened a:t the rim; what might be termed, a jogging noise is usually caused by a loose crank; -loud snapping almost invariably comes from a dry chain and a loose sprocket wiikhum.p.
