FLORIDA DEPUTY
Deputy Sheriff Johns of ] Fernan-
dina Lured to His Death
His Body Found in the Woods by a
Searching Party—Was Called Out
on a Bogus Warrant to Make an
Arrest and Foully Dealt With.
Fernandina, Dec. . 9.—Considerable
excitement prevails here tonight over
the mysterious disappearance of Dep
uty Sheriff E. E, Johns, for it is fear
ed that he has been murdered, or has
At least met with foul play.
Wednesday morning, a man claim*
ing to be a fisherman, and giving the
name of Abe Brown, came into the
city and swore out a warrant for a
party named Doty, charging Doty
with stealing his fishing nets. The
warrant was given to Deputy Sheriff
‘Johns to serve, and the deputy left
town in his buggy, accompanied by
the man, Abe Brown.
Nothing has been seen of Deputy
Johns since leaving here with Brown
and what causes the apprehension of
foul play is the fact that this morn
ing the horse driven by the Deputy
Sheriff was found at Davis Crossing,
with the harness broken. The horse
was found between 9 and 10 a. m.,
ljut there is absolutely no clew as to
what has become of Mr. Johns.
Parties are out tonight searching
the hammock between the city and
the beach, and a thorough search will
he kept up until some clew to the
mysterious disappearance Is found.
No one knows anything about the
man Brown. He is a young man, ap
parently not more than 22 or 23
years of age, has a light moustache,
yfc, but no beard. Being a stranger here,
*" It is feared that he may have been
sent here to lure the deputy away
from town and that some harm has
been done him.

If Carnegie Owned America.
Andrew Carnegie said today that if
he owned America, he would give a
premium to immigration to come here
Mr. Carnegie said:
p “Our country has more than one
serious problem ,but immigration is
not among them. We have solved
the question In the present by the
somewhat too drastic law that we
have enacted. It is not a problem for
us. It is the problem of the poor un
fortunate countries from which we
are drawing the best blood.
“Now, I hold that the prime and
only test we should exact is this:
Has a man the ambition to enjoy the
rights of an American citizen, and has
he the habits of sobriety and frugal-
ity to save the sum necessary for
him to reach this port? and is he skill
