Just before getting home he took a near cut through a piece of woods, and iu this piece of wood-, haif a mile from his home, ho was found dead next morning.

With great presence of mind he spread out his bands and laid as flat as possible for the engine to pass over him.

Gainesville Sun: It is now conceded that the phosphate deposits in Alachua couuty are much more extensive than those of any other county in Florida. Solid beds of phosphate in this county extend for miles, and not simply in spots or pockets, as iu other counties. The deposits are all easy of access, and soma of the richest are very near railroad facilities. Despite the efforts of those in other sections who are striving to retard the growth and prosperity of this locality, the prospect is most flattering that the development ou an extensive sc da of the phosphate deposits of Alachua county will shortly be Inaugurated. Tallahassee Articles of incorporation were tiled in the :e rotary of state office, Wednesday, of the Wakulla Phosphate Company. The purpose of the company, as set forth in the articles of in corporation, is to have the counties of Franklin, Liberty, and especially Wakulla, examined as to the existence therein in pay ing quantities aud qualities of phosphate, marl and other mineral formations, to be established by suitable analysis, and if found in sufficient quanties and paying qualities to establish works for its extrac tion and manufacture, or either.

Live Oak Banner: Newly discovered phosphate bods are situated in Lafayette and Suwannee counties, extending across from Branford to Steinhatchie. The best beds are supposed to be around Stein hatchie. The piiosph ate is as good a grade as the Mari m county phosphate, and the quantity is boundless. Dr. G. H. Gwyun, who is a good chemist, first examined the phosphate himself; he then had the state chemist to examine it, anil has since had it examined by chemists of world-wide repu tation, and each agree that these beds are some of the most valuable that have been discovered yet. Dr. Gwynn has purchased thousands of acres of this land, aud to him the day is dawning when he will be classed among millionaires.

Baron Rothschild is a young man, scarcely 21 years old, and his tour through Amorica i3 purely one of pleasure, lie is just out of oollege, and still in charge of private professors tor the completion of his education. Oriando Record: Capt. T. J. Tucker, who lives just uorth of the city, is telling a re markable snake story which happened re cently, and in which he wa3 one of the principal participants, among his friends around town to-day. It seems that the captain was Ashing in Lake Ivanhoe, and had been lucky enough to catch a pretty good-sized trout. Thinking he would clean it before returning home ho sat dowu on the bank of the lake, and as he was wash ing the fish, with bis hand in the water, he suddenly felt something pulling at one of his fingers. Imagine his surprise and con sternation when, upon looking down at his finger, lie saw a large moccasin snake had hold of it.

The address will warn the party of the danger of division, especially at tbis time, when the state is threatened by a hostile republican administration at Wash ington. Without referring directly to the Tinman-Shell movement, it will in general terms refute the charges made against the dear cratio administration of the slate iu the Shell call. The committee, so far as it was represented at the meeting, is a unit against any interference with the regular plan of democratic nominations, aud the subcommittee was authorized to issue an address to the party if it saw fit to do so. The Turner-Finger tragedy still serves as a topic for conversation at Spartanburg. The coroner has iiiei his papers. The jury re ndered a verdict than Finger came to his death by a pistol shot fired by Turner. The testimony as taken by Coroner James is somewhat conflicting. It amounts to about this: Finger, with several others, wa9 going from town with guano on a wagon. He was so newhat under the influence of whisky, but not, drunk. He was making consider able noise and had some unpleasant words w ith Lu Sparks. She went on ahead to Turner’s store, and they v.ere together, or close together, whan i inger came up.

One of the balls from Mr. Dannellv’s pistol penetrated the right arm of Mr. Blocker, inflicting a pain ful though not seri us wound. The cause of the shooting may be related in a few words. Mr. Blocker and a daughter of Mr. Danneily became engaged to ho married, against the wisaes of the girl’s parents! Several attemps were made by the couple to elope, which only added t u Ito the fire of madness that glove i within the bosom of tile father. Threats were made and the two men went armed for mutual protection. So when they met it seems they concluded to settle the matter. GEORGIA THRIFT.

Brown lias not supported Dudley’s candidacy and does not want him appointed. The Telegraph adds that Capt. Brown’s character is such as to command the respect of democrats as well as repub lican’s. Monroe News: A clash between Northen and Livingston for gubernatorial honors is to be deprecated in the strongest terms. Livingston is a candidate. He will quietly work his plans until a few weeks before the onvention.cor primary,to nominate a gover nor,and then he wiil sally forth. The trouble with the farmers bar t een, thy say them selves, they have allowed other men to do their thinking for them. So now they must uot Allow their leaders to u-e them a3 pup pets.

Sides Ayer's Fills are commended as the best reg ulator of the liver, stomach, and bowels. Dr. Thomas Conners, of Centre Bridge, Fa., says : “ Having long used Ayer’s Fills with good results, I can confidently recommend them above all others.” Dr. Geo. P. Spencer, of Unity, N. IL, writes : “ I consider Ayer’s Pills far superior, as a cathartic, to any that are furnished by the pharmacopoeia.” “After suffering for eight years from chilis and fever, with only occasional intervals of rest, 1 was cured by Ayer’s Pills alone. My case had resisted treatment with the usual doctors’ prescriptions and a great number of proprietary medicines; but under the influ ence of Ayer’s Pills the chills and fever ceased, my liver and stomach were restored to healthy action, and my former good health returned. Ayer’s Pills cannot be excelled as a remedy for disorders caused by malarial poirons.” S. L. Barrow, Gordon, Texas. “ For headache, Ayer’s Pills are the most effective medicine.”—(4. Itodee, Homer, N.Y. “When I feel the need of a cathartic, I take Ayer's Pills, and find them to be more effective than any other pills I ever took.”-' Mrs. B. C. Grubb, Burwcllvllle, Va.
