where pro]s*r ]>a|iers would Lie taken out to

The Crescent City correspondent of the

2*, us follows: “C/uite a number of our
orange growers near town are fertilizing
their orange trees. Thanks to the niunin
eence of Air. Emerson Brooks, the memliers
of the Presbyterian church are having that
building repainted, adding much to its
comely appearance.— —There is quite a lull
in the shipment of oranges, but soon after

After a long illness. Judge William Morrow
died at his home on Saturday last and was

Lakelund Cracker: Several young gentle
men, all Sunday school scholars, w’ent to
tho country a few* days since to get a few
oranges, and, finding no one nt the grove,
they proceeded to help themselves They
“only took a few,” having only a one-horse
wagon, and when they were ready to come
home they started on a run —they
did not feel guilty—merely ran
to keep warm. Just at this junct
ure, the owner appeared, and when he be
gan to sprinkle buckshot around that crowd
they made Maud S. ashamed of herself.
Arriving in the city, someone told them
tho Marshal was on their’track, but $lO
from each of them would settle the troulile.
It was pitiful to see those kids hustling

J. (1. Donald, John Crowley, Joseph Mad
den, Paul Johnson and Patrick McCm saw
an advertisement in the New York World
that five boys were wanted for Florida.
Upon applicat ion to A. E. King, of ‘.‘72
Sixth avenue, New York, and upon the
payment of each and sls further for
tickets they were given letters to the pro
prietors of the Ht. James Hotel at Jackson
ville, guaranteeing them employment as
bell boys at $lB per month. Upon applica
tion to the proprietor they wore informed lie
had already employed bell boys, and had
sent no order to King for any kind of help
whatsoever. Then Donald and his eompan
ions perceived that they had been grossly
swindled, and immediately went to Mr.
Dopple, of the Florida employment agency,
of i K .VV. Bay street Jacksonville, a branch
of King’s New York bureau, and demanded
a return of the money paid King They
were told that he had nothing to do with
King, and had only sent him an order for
waitresses, but he, however, to get rid of
the boys, gave each of them $1 15 to depart
for tho Ancient City where they obtained
employment at barely living wages. Donald
and Johnson have purchased tickets for
New York, and will put the matter in the
hands of Inspector Byrnes ujion their ar
rival there.
