CEDAR KEY CHIPK
The Local Mills and Factories In Full
Blast.
Cxdab Kxy, Fla., Jan. 29.—The mills
and factories here are in full blast There
are plenty of visitors and tourists, of which
our town is getting more than its usual
share.
Every one who comes here has a good
word to say for Cedar Key.
A gentleman aud his wife came a few
days since, wba said “our friend Mr. Blank
toid us to go to Cedar Key and enjoy the
fishing and shooting.” A man from Brook-<
lyn came who said “I have two old friends.i
who told me thatjf ever I went to Florida 1
to goto Cedar Key.” Others come fror 1
Michgan, Wisconsin, Missouri, Indian 1
and from ali parts of the union. In add
turn to this, the world famous Suwanrv
river is attracting many people and nr'
enterprises. The steamer “Belle of Suwr
nee" has been in operation on that strjn
just a year, and in that time tire
have been added to the bus?ss
there two mills. two turpesne
distilleries, two logging camps, three <4ar
buyers and six merchants, besides eton
buyers. The increase in population not
so great as it will be when it is learned) hit
magnificent lands border this raid
stream. The large mill of C. A. Fafbi-'l
has been rebuilt, and the first cargo (lum
ber went to sea Tuesday. Another 'Mel is
loading and another is up for thi port.
This has been the biggest winter
we have ever enjoyed. Ceda Key
has consumed more fuel to far thipeason
than in any winter heretofore. Wile the
cold has not been intense, it has be;
and prolonged. Land and timbe buyers
are busy. Several large sales bt* been
made in this county, and more at more
are being negotiated. Tne naturalftavaut
ages of this port are being recorized at
last, and will be developed, ho vast
timber forests of Levy and Alachu must be
got to market, and this is the ode:. The
ship canal engineers are expeo/d daily.
They will employ a very large foie of men,
boats and teams.
A FINE POINT IN IAW.
The Right to Convict of a Higher Of
fense on an Appeal at Stake.
Tallahassee, Fla., Jan.29.—An im
portant criminal case, involvic a fine legal
point never decided in this st,te, was sub
mitted to the supreme court to-day. It is
the case of Francis A. Johnsm, who killed
Newcastle in Polk tounty s<tne years ago.
The case was argued by (feu. J. B. Wall
and Attorney Geneal W. B Lamar. This
is the second time tie case has been to the
supreme court. Tie prinoipal point in
volved is whetber or not conviction of an
offense of a moor grade has the
effect to acquit aprisoner of a higher
grade charged in in indictment aud bar
conviction of the hisior grade on anew
trial. Johnson wa twice convicted of
murder in the secondlegree upon an indict
ment charging munir in the first degree.
Upon his last trial, bing his third, he was
convicted of murder h tue first degree. The
question is whether tfe verdict is a proper
one. In the PoUdankr and Henry Maun
cases it was intimatedby the supreme court
that conviction of a niuor grade of offense
acquitted the prisonerpf the higher grade
charged in the indictuhnt, and barred any
conviction of the higter grade on anew
trial. Later, in the Jihnson case, in 1888,
the supreme court reserved the question for
future decision. Th point now comes
6quarely up for decision

lighthouses and beach stations can by its
use give warning to ‘ ’not trust to boats,”
and similar instructions. The patent is a
British one.
Both Houses of the North Carolina legis
lature have passed an oyster bill, and Gov.
Fowle has taken prompt 6teps looking to
its vigorous enforcement. An armed cruiser
will be sent to the oyster grounds to drive
off all trespassers. Tbe bill as passed gives
the governor power to eall out tbe entire
state militia, and to call upon the treasurer
to pay tbe expenses of the s one. It Is also
rr ale unlawful to oatch oysters from any
of the public grounds or natural oyster
beds , f North Carolina with dredge, drag,
scoop or patent tongs, except such tongs as
ar; worked by hand. Tbe penalty for so
doing is from $ 1,000 to $5,000 or imprison
ment from ore to five years, or both. An
amendment was offered to the bill in the
Senate to allow the use of dredges by na
tive North Carolinians engaged in the can
ning industry, but, after aneated discussion,
this was defeated, and it is claimed by the
advocates of the amendment, who are inter
ested in the canneries, that this wiil break
up their business entirely and throw thou
sands of hands out of employment In conse
quence.
“The House of Representatives,” says The
New York Maritime Register, “has just
passed tho bill introduced a year ago to
govern the chauging of vessels’ names.
Accordingto this measure‘vessels that have
had accidents afflictive to the public, or
been burnt, sunk or abandoned as wre ks,
and such as have not been inspected nor
classed in an American registry for
marine insurance, and those once classed
that have lost their rating or had it sus
pended, and all that shall be rated below
the grade of A2 by the Record of American
and Foreign Shipping, or tbe Inland Lloyd’s
Register of lake vessels, or fail to be worthy
of such grade, shall not be allowed a change
of name. Vessels aud boats of past and
present good character arid rating, sea
worthyJn ali respects and free from debts,
and whose owners shall offer substantial
and satisfsetory reason therefor, may have
their names changed by the commissioner
of navigation, but all new names given must
be uulike those of any vessel sailing from
the same port.’”
“The capacity of the vessels launched
from the shipyards of the United Kingdom
last year,” says the Chicago Herald, “was
1,802,055 gross tons, against 1,845,515 gross
tons in 1889, making a total of 2,047,570
tons in two yoars. This construction was
greater than ever before in the same length
of time. That it was iu excess of the de
mand for shipping can not be doubted in
the light of the facts. The construction
last year included vessels with an aggregate
capacity of nearly 1,000,000 tons which
were on the stocks at the end of 1889, and
which had been ordered when freights and
prices of ships were much higher than they
were last year. New orders last year
were comparatively few. and many build
ers built on their own account rather than
have their plants lie idle. Thus nearly ali
the work of last year consisted in finishing
ships previously ordered and in building on
speculation, aud there was almost no de
mand for new oonsti uction. Builders who
were gettiug $45 to SSO per ton for con
struction on previous orders oould get no
more than $35 per ton during the latter part
of last year. These facts, with the fact that
the number of ships laid up in British har
bors for want of Dusineos is constantly in
creasing, show unmistakably that there is no
present demand for the increase of ship
ping, and that this is a most unfavorable
time for new ventures.”
A Now Savannah Vessel.
The large and new schooner which has
been in course of construction at Camden,
N. J., for several months, is now rapidly
approaching completion and will probably
be ready for launching the latter part of
next month or the first of March.
She is largely owned in this city—in fact,
a majority of the shares in her. She is to
be commanded by Capt. A. T. Young of
the schooner Ida Lawrence, now in port
here. She will be named the Jennie Thomas,
after the little daughter of Mr. Daniel R.
Thomas, who is one of her owners, and she
will hail from this port.

LSVY'B SPECIAL-
The Town Agog Over the Slaughter.
Levy’s promised sjiecial sale began Satur
day, Jan. 24. Prior limited mention of it
had the entire city on the <jui vive, and
when the doors opened on Saturday morn
ing the scene was suggestive of the Theater
box offioe on the eve of a popular ticket
sale. Levy’s “specials” always draw well,
simply because the public has learned that
every promise is fulfilled just as adver
tised--no hair-splitting, no evasions, no
quibbling. The programme is carried out
to the letter, regardless of results.
Their particular “special” that is now on
is the grandfather special of the lot—knocks
out all past records, and fills the people’s
pockets and carries dismay to the heart of
competition, because nothing has, nor can
equal it. The idea of turning out the Very
Best qualities of Overcoats, Clothing
and Underwear at Seventy-five oents on
the dollar, is something so very serious that
it is hard to realize as fact, were it not that
the reputation of a first-class, and the
leading Clothing establishment of the city
and state is behind tbe promise. The cause
of this tumble in values is not shrouded in
mystery, simply a matter of business.
Our Spring stock is moving this way, and
we won’t have room to store it unless we
can run off our remaining W inter Clothing.
“Desperate cases require desperate reme
dies,” and tbts is most assuredly a “ground
hog” case, and if our patrons and the public
generally oontinue the interest shown thus
far, Winter won’t haunt Spring’s lap very
long. This opportunity will pay fully all
who “gather” it—Men, Boys and Children
can make more money by investing in
Overcoats, Clothing and Underwear — even
for next Seaton's use than by depositing in
a Savings bank at four per cent, interest.
You can figure this out yourself, and tbe
cold invariable figures may prove more con
vincing than any “say-so” of our*.
