Sanford, so elegibly located on Lake
Monroe at the bead of steamboat navigation
upon the St. John's river, has made anew
departure during the past year, and is rap
idly advancing in population and im
portance. Indeed, it is doubtful whether
during the same period any other place in
Florida has made greater strides in the
march of progress. This we propose to
show by a few succinct statements which
cannot be successfully controverted.
To begin, despite unpropitious seasons and
the hard times, the daily deposits in the
Lyman Bank have exceeded by 50 per cent,
those of any previous year, while for the
past six weeks the increase was even in a
greater ratio. This institution is about to
change its name, and will lie known here
after as the
FIRST NATIONAL BANK
of Sanford, with Frederick H. Rand Presi
dent, Moses Lyman Vice President, and
Frank P. Forster Cashier. Rev. L. Phelps,
who will continue to act as Postmaster until
his successor has been qualified, and is a
director in the bank, informed the writer
that the revenues of the office had increased
so rapidly of late that before the close of the
year it would lie advanced to the second
grade of Presidential post offices.
PROFITABLE ORANGE GROWING.
Mr. Phelps is also the fortunate owner of
a grove of 1,800 bearing orunge trees, the
majority just beginning to yield fruit, from
which he netted $5,000 the past, season.
Your correspondent saw and noted the ac
count of sales of the various shipments
which aggregated the above result. This
shows that the orange business, when prop
erly attended to, can be made to pay hand
somely.
THE BOOM IN BUILDING.
From Mr. F. H. Rand, the General Man
ager of the Florida Land and Colonization
Company, who is so favorably known in
railroad circles, we learn that three stately
blocks of brick buildings have been erected
within a year, containing ten roomy stores
and numerous offices. The Wellborn block,
just completed, is one of the most imposing
structures in the State and would grace any
city. The upper apartment* are occupied
by the handsome offices of the South Flori
da railroad and as a Masonic lodge. More
than 100 hundred dwellings were erected
during the last twelve months. And to
show that the citizens have not been lack
ing in enterprise,
GAS AND WATER WORKS
also have been established within the same
period. The latter are supplied from a deep
lake three and a half miles from the city,
and the water is delivered by the action of
gravity and then lifted by pumps into ele
vated reservoirs. The Holly system of pres
sure is used. The works, which are being
enlarged, when completed will cost SBO,OOO.
In addition an ice factory, a moss
factory, by C. C. Turner and A. M. Cooley,
and ah
ARTIFICIAL STONE FACTORY”,
by T. W. Cotton, have all lieen finished in
side of a year. Still another important en
terprise, also, will soon be inaugurated by
the Betts Fencing Company, of Palmer,
Mass., who are about to establish a branch
of their manufactory hero. Then we have
the Sanford Loan and Trust Company,
recently incorporated, with J. F. Well
born president, .and no less than
SIX RAILROADS
converging to, and radiating from, this
growing city.
Of transactions in real estate, the writer
was informed by one of the most reliable
dealers, R. H. Marks, that SIIO,OOO worth of
property had changed hands the present
year in the vicinity of Sanford, much the
largest portion inside the corporate limits.
Lora are high and held firmly at advancing
rates. Fourteen now business places have
been ojieiiod or reconstructed in a single
year. Among them may lie mentioned
T. B. Ball, wholesale dealoin in grain and
fertilizers; the new shoe store of H Adler &
Cos.; sadlery and livery stable, J. B. Magru
der; family groceries, A. C. Martin; fine
imported liquors, cigars and tobacco, R. A.
'Wheeler, a Georgia boy; and others not re
membered.
One of the merchant princes of Florida is
M. J. Doyle, of this place, whose several
magnificent stores occupy nearly a whole
block. Mr. Doyle is said to lie the largest
dealer in general merchandise on the St.
John’s river outside of Jacksonville. He is
an old Savannah citizen, greatly esteemed
and respected.
The Everglade Hotel never closes, and
under its clever proprietor enjoys all of its
former prestige as a pleasant "traveler s
rest.”
John L. Davis lias moved into two elegant
brick apartments near the depot, where he
has opened a first-class restaurant, and deals
also in flue domestic and imported liquors.
This is quite a convenience to the hungry
and weary traveler.
THE ENVIRONS OF SANFORD.
Accompanied by the talented and popular
May or of the city, Hon. Henry Lientlial, the
writer visited many of the beautiful orange
groves that literally surround the town on
three sides, the other, facing Lake Monroe
with its silver sheen of limpid waters. The
trees were all green and vigorous, and
albeit a rather meager yield of fruit will be
gathered the present, year, the prospect is
that the crop of IKBB will bo the most
abundant ever known. Much attention lias
been paid to ditching and drainage, which
is perfectly feasible, as the land rises by a
gradual ascent from the lake to a consider
able elevation. So much so for Sanford
which proudly more than holds ite own
among her sister cities in the Land of
DeSoto.
IRREPRESSIBLE DELAND.
This delightful little city lies lie tween the
majestic St. John’s and the Jacksonville,
Tampa and Key West, railroad, and is
ranched by a short branch from the latter.
It is picturesquely located upon an undulat
ing plateau covered with lofty pines, whose
aroma and sanative effects are peculiarly
soothing to those affected with pul
monary complaints. The soil, With the
assistance of commercial stimulants, seems
well adapted t.o orange culture, and in the
town and immediate vicinity are to be
found some of the most magnificent and
profitable groves in Florida. Prominent,
among those is the famous “Oillem Grove,”
photographs of which an- scattered all over
the country. Beautiful as the picture ap
pears, yet the original with its leafy luxur
iance and golden fruit exhaling delicious
odors far surpasses nature’s copy.
The writer has never met that noble
gentleman and big-hearted philanthropist,
Mr. Delgind, by whose intelligent and j>er
sistout efforts this southern wilderness lias
lieen almost, transformed into an earthly
paradise, but the impress of his influence
and presence may bo seen on every side.
The community is composed mainly of
Northern and Western settlers of a superior
type, of whom, allielt nearly all Repmili
eans, it. may be truly affirmed that they are
also worthy and patriotic citizens of their
adopt*. 1 Stake.
HON. F. 8. GOODRICH,
the Mayor, was the nominee of the Republi
cans in the Legislature for United States
Seuutor, and the fidelity with which they
ciung ut him to the last," shows their appre
ciation of the moral worth and intrinsic
merit of their favorite. He does indeed
make an excellent chief magistrate, and is a
live and progressive citizen.
VISITED BY THE FIRE FIEND.
On the ever memorable Sept. 27, 1886,
over SIOO.IIOO w orth of property, embracing
nearly all of the business portion of the
town, was laid in ashes, with only $25,000
covered by insurance. But in less than ten
months seven-eighths of the burnt district
lias been restored, and is now occupied by
substantial and handsome brick edifices.
Moreover, the trade and business of the
place are more flourishing than ever before,
and collections are fairly good. Thera has
rieen but a single failure during the past
year, and that was the direct result of the
fire. Despite that terrible catastrophe too,
which caused almost a total supension of
business for many weeks, the daily deposits
in bank have exceeded by one-third those of
the preceding year. Tliis is a fact of no
little significance. But, DeLand enjoys one
proud distinction which is share! by no
other town in Florida. All of her hotels, six
in number,
WILL BE KEPT OPEN
through the summer, of course under a re
duced schedule of expenses. Some of these
hotels, notably the Carrollton and Putnam,
will compare favorably with any in the
Gtate. The former is elegantly finished and
furnished, and the proprietor, though a lead
ing merchant, finds ample time to cater to
his guests to their entire satisfaction. In
this connection it would lie discourteous not
to mention also
FLORAL GROVE HOUSE,
where the writer was made to feel perfectly
at home. Mi - . Seaman and his gentle wife
keep a modest and unpretentious establish
ment, but they are both such clever fieople,
and their rooms so exquisitely neat, to say
not hing of the good cheer dispensed with no
niggard hand, that every visitor is certain
to come again. Since the fire fifteen com
modious brick stores have lieen erected,
with several more in comtem
plation, and a large number of new
dwellings. The town is evidently
on the up grade and bound to be one of the
most popular resorts in the “Hill region” of
the piny woods of Florida. Having a year
ago mentioned the names and lines of busi
ness of the numerous merchants and pro
fessional men we will simply supply omis
sions.
Mr. N. B. Caqienter is the owner of a
fine orange grove and lovelt flower garden.
A bouquet from the latter we chanced to see
rivalled all the colors of the rainbow, and
was far sweeter and more tangible.
Among the dealers in real estate we find
the veteran C. P. Williams and George W.
McLaurine.
The bar is ably represented by Messrs.
Hamlin & Stewart and William W. Holst,
who is also a large orange grower and real
estate owner. The writer was particularly
pleased with Mr. Stewart, who is an enter
prising gentleman and stands at the head of
his profession.
A NEW DEAL IN THE POST OFFICE.
Mr. Cleveland has suddenly broken up
the long succession of Radical office-holders
in the Republican stronghold by the ap
pointment of Mr. H. A. Tanner as post
master. Not that the former incumbents
were inefficient or unworthy, but simply to
illustrate the apothegm “that every dog
will have his day,” and the other saw as
true as trite, that “it is a long lano that has
no turn.”
The new appointee, who has lieen duly
confirmed, is of course very happy, anil
says he is a straight-out* staunch lit inocrat
of the time of Franklin Pierce, and means
to do his whole duty. As an evidence of
this, and the growth of DeLand, he says the
number of boxes rented for the second quar
ter of 1887 exceeds by one-fourth that of the
preceding year. This is now a “Presiden
tial post office." Mr. Tanner is assisted by
his accomplished daughter, Miss Laura, who
is undoubtedly “Mistress” of the situation,
Mr. Tanner was inducted into office on
April 1.
The writer must now close the jottings of
his late visit to DeLand for want of time
and space, but the pleasant memories con
nected with that charming town and ite re
fined and hospitable people can never be
forgotten. H. H. J.
THE BONANZA QUEEN’S GUESTS.
Colonel, “the Hon. W. F. Cody,” and
Mrs. Hughes-Hallett.
From the London. World.
Mrs. Mackay’s musical party certainly
provoked the most powerful social attraction
in liOndonon Thursday evening. Her house
in Buckingham Gate was charmingly deco
rated throughout with masses of flowers and
ferns; palms stood in the windows of the
galleried ballroom where the concert took
place; and in the adjoining salon Mr.
Mackay, in white satin embroidered with
pearls, welcomed her numerous guests.
Madame Nevada (in very good voice) sang
“La Fleur du Foyer,” and Mr. George Gul
dens was as realistic ill “The Pensive Hen”
as he was in “Bill, the Burglar.” Prince
Malooin Khan, the Italian Minister, and the
Baron de Pinedo represented the Corps
Diplomatique, Sir Arthur Sullivan came on
from his duties at the Philharmonic, and so
did Col. W. F. Cody from his evening show
at the “Wild West ”
The Duchess of Manchester wore blue
flowered silk, trimmed with mauve, and
her splendid pearls. Mias Henniker and her
sister were both in black, Lady Hothfield
was in red velvet. Mrs. Cavendish Bentinck
in crimson silk, the Comtesse d'Atiliigny in
old lace, with a wonderful brocaded train,
Lady Gosford in pink, Lady Romney in
white brocade, and Mrs. Ronalds in pale
blue and pearls. Mrs. Von Andre, Mrs,
Jack Leslie (in blue and silver), and Mrs.
Arthur Paget were all much admired; Mrs.
Berens, in black, brought her daughters, in
blue and pink; Mrs. Hughes-Hallett, also in
black, chaperoned Miss Butterfield, in yel
low crap, and Miss Selwyn, iu pink crepe
and satm.
American Hotel Fare.
From the. Hartford Courant.
A gentleman Curious about hotel living in
the United States recently secured alkiut
forty menus from the principal hotels of the
<*iuiitry, from New Brunswick to California,
for the purpose of comparison. They arc of
nliout the same date in the month of May
and give an excellent idea of the kinds of
food furnished to travelers on the North
American continent. In the matter of fish
in May, shad is found all the way from
Toronto to Topeka, Knn. White fish appear
on the bill of one hotel in St. Johns, N. H.,
and on ono in San Francisco, between which
points it is mentioned only once, on a
Kansas bill. Salmon has the most fre
quent mention reaching from Maine to
California, including Knoxville, Teim., De
troit, Milwaukee, Oshkosh, Halt Lake city
ami Cheyenne. Soles are mentioned at
Falmouth, Me., Boston and Sun Francisco.
Red snapper and pompauo are on the list in
Boston, New York, Savannah, Augusta,
Ga.: Montgomery, Ala.; New Orleans, Chi
cago and Cincinnati. Codishonored w.ih
menu mention only once, at Saco, Me. Bass
appears in Bouton, Hartford, Now York,
Washington, Old Point Comfort and Louis
ville, Ky. Only four places were nblo to
afford trout, on the dinner bill—only one
being a table d’hote dinner. Haddock is
quoted ut Wilmington, Del., rockflsh at
Baltimore, and bluefish is mentioned only at
Old Point Comfort. ,
The greatest variety of fish mentioned on
a single bill is on that of a hotel in Boston,
which includes fifteen varieties; the next
largest living in New York, with ten varie
ties— the reason being that both lulls repre
sent the generous larder of a large restau
rant, Kurojiean plan, rather than, as in most
other cases, the special menu of a single ta
ble d’hote dinner. ,
The game port of the lulls (game laws
being on in May) include* black duck in
New Brunswick redhead in Toronto, wild
squab and English snipe in Boston, mongral
goose dow bird, plover, snipe, and ranvas
buck duck in New York, "fillet de bear at
a hotel in Washington; flunk in Louisville,
••small birds” in Detroit, snipe in Milwaukee,
and stewed squirrel in Han rrsuicisco — not a
very largo ast orunout”
THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, JUNE lfi, 1887.
DANBURY’S DUMB MAN.
A Man Who Is Only Able to Converse
With Two Persons.
A Danbury (Conn.) letter says: For some
time the pre-eminent interest, of this old
Connecticut town has centered in a resident
who is, from a physiological and psychologi
cal view, a wonder. His strangeness can
only be accounted for in the light of a ma
ternal antenatal experience which seems
to influence all his biological phenomena.
John Tice, or “Dummy,” as he is gener
ally called, aged about 50, resides on Deer
hill avenue, in the eastern part of Danbury.
He is a farm-hand, engaged most, of the time
in the service of Mrs. Ryder, w ho resides at
Main and South streets and owns a farm in
the outskirts. “DummyV’ sobriquet indi
cates less than a half truth, for he converses
readily enough with two persons, but is
absolutely unable to talk to any one else on
earth. This statement neccessitates a re
trospect.
“Dummy’s” mother, according to undis
puted witnesses, was amazonian, inflexible,
vindictive, unrelenting. Her animosities
were as bitter as her friendships were en
during. Her husband was shiftless, indo
lent, a poor provider, and bibulous, often
arousing her wrath. About six month be
fore “Dummy’s" birth her husband com
mitted an act so heinous in her eyes as fair
ly to stifle the accustomed torrent of her
vituperation. In her fury she could only
sulk and mumble and grind her teeth. Fin
nally her suppressed rage found vent in a
single sentence:
“You brute! I’ll never speak to you
again to my dying day!’’
Until after the birth of her child she nursed
her wrath and kept her word. She spoke,
indeed, to no ono except to her mother, to
her friend. Mi’s. McCann, a young widow,
and the latter’s little daughter. The Neme
sis that has pursued “Dummy” through life
first manifested ite presence in infancy.
When alone with his mother, Mrs. McCann,
or h"r daughter, Johnny was able without
any more difficulty than other children of
his age to frame words and to unite them in
to sentences, but to everybody else the child
was utterly unable to articulate, rile was
never able, try as bo might, to speak a word
to his father. As he could not recite any
thing he was not sent to school. He cannot
read or write.
A party of roughs, some time ago, believ
ing that he could but would not con verse,
inveigled him to a secluded snot and threat
ened him with death if he did not speak to
them and answer their questions. He could
only plead in dumb show forhislife. Then
they lieat and fearfully maltreated him.
fully convinced at last that he was not
shamming. After his mother's death he
married one of the remaining persons he
could talk to, the widow McCann. lie
lives with her at the present time, convers
ing readily with her and her daughter,
now Mrs. Rudgeley. A single incident will
illustrate how fie communicates with
them.
A gentleman recently desired to buy one
of his roosters and he called upon “Dum
my” and the latter’s wife. He made his of
fer to them and inquired whether it was ac
cepted.
“I’ll take him one side and see what he
savs about it,” she replied tc the visitor.
Then “Dummy”and his wife went out
near ail out-house, beyond heal ing, tint the
visitor could see “Dummy’s” lip moving and
the pair in evident conversation. Upon their
return the woman accepted the offer in her
husband’s name. He cannot converse with
his wife in another’s presence. His hearing
and understanding are normal, and the two
persons he can talk to say lie manifests no
difficulty in expressing himself to them clear
ly, nor in enunciation.
Mrs. Ryder, for whom he works, in com
mon with all others who have had relations
with him, pronounces him a good workman,
faithful, intelligent, comprehending readily
everything required of him, but doomed to
general dumbness by an inexorable law
ante-dating his birth. A physician who
takes great interest, in the case and has ex
amined “Dummy’s” throa t explains his phy
siological difficulties as follow;
"There is always nervous excitement
attendant upon his efforts to sisiak before
strangers. In ordinary speech the epi
glottis is distended and fhe vibratory cords
are expanded. In his case they do'not re
spond to the will. A sort of paralysis ex
ists. In the absence of nervous excitement
they would act normally ami speech would
follow.”
This is the pathological viw, hut it does
not explain why speech is vouchsafed only
when addressing those his mother favored
just previous to his birth. It does not ex
plain the preternatural phases which
puzzle physiologists and scientists alike
and are the wonder of townsmen and
strangers.
GIRLS, CONTROL YOUR TEMPERS.
A Bride who Became so Angry That
she Went Insane
Prom the. City of Mexico Tiro Republics.
One of the prettiest girls of Zacatecas, be
longing to one of the best families in the
State, has just lieen admitted to the insane
asylum in that city, a hopeless maniac.
Born the daughter of wealthy parents, an
only child, she was indulged in everything,
and in consequence her naturally sweet dis
position was thoroughly spoiled, and
whenever an attempt was made to cross
her wishes she had the most frightful out
bursts of temper, which always ended in
all around her yielding and allowing her to
carry her point. On March 4 of
the present year she was married to a
wealthy young haciendadn whose extensive
place is located near Zacatecas. The wed
ding was a grand affair, .and the young
couple started life together with the bright
est possible prospects. Soon after marriage,
however, there arose slight disputes between
husband and wife, which ended, as had lieen
the case all through the girl’s life, in her
favor, the husband, a high-spirited man,
yielding invariably before her awful fits of
violence. This finally, however, became
unendurable to the young married man, and
he determined to break Bis wife's frightful
temper and assert his manhood, trusting
that they would live more happily together
in the end.
So upon the next occasion when there
arose a difference of opinion on wane
trifling matter ho remained firm and utterly
refused to yield his point. His wife stormed
and flew into'a perfect storm of passion, but
he remained unmoved, and finally when the
exhibition of temper was assuming n phase
where the young woman connjienced break
ing the breakfast dishe* they WHittheir
morning meal when the troubles rose—in
the impeoeney of her wrath, he ciutehed her
tightly by the arm and in a rough tone
insisted that she should quiet down. She
gave him one awful look; then with a wild
shriek she tore herself from htsjgrip, and,
