Pensacola -Veins: Charles Mertins
had a very narrow escape Saturday from
drowning. In company with Jake
Biel igbauser. he was driving in a buggy
alongside of Carpenter’s creek a few miles
from tee city. Mr. Mertins saw some
beautiful lilies growihg in the water’s edge,
and alighted from the buggy to gather
them. Leaning over to grasp them he list
his balance ana fell in tbe creek. The sud

hauser, who at the risk of his own life
rushed to tbe rescue of his friend and drew
him from the water.
Fort Myers lYess: It is not the lot of
! many to round their one hundredth mile
post, but John Gomez, a citizen of Lee
county, who visited Fort Myers again this
week, claims, if spared, be wiil be 110 years
old April 15 next. He is of French parent
age, and was born on one of the islands of
the Portugal coast, April 15, 1761. When
a youn" hoy they moved, on account of his
mother's health, to the south of France,
wt,ero ho grew up. He has seen tb“ First
Napoleon tour times, tbe last time ox Calais.
When quite a y ung man be started out in
the world, and followed ibe sea-faring life
for many years. Though short in stature,
he possessed great muscular strength, easily
shouldering a barrel of flour, and was apt,
many times, to use bis strength foolish! v,
iu fighting w.th the rough characters, with
whom he was thrown in contact. We
learned in the course of our conversation
that his remarkable longevity is not in
herited, nor has he taken the care of him
self that he should, for he stated, with re
gret, that rum had ruined him. “But,”
said he, “I have not drank a drop in twenty
nine years.” About six weeks ago he whs
bitten on tbe ankle by a rattlesnake, and
when urged to drink, poeitively refused,
saying: “I-et me die, but don’t make me
drunk.” His wife killed and applied to the
bite, one after another twenty-one
chickens, removing es fast as the
flesh of the fowl became blackened and
tnakl g fresh appl:cations. Tbe treatment
was successful. * His wife is 69 years old,
and remarkably well preserved. The old
couple have nochildren, and ;o gain a living
cut wood,.raise fruit and vegetables for the
Key West market, and, as their wants are
few, they are going down the hill of life
happy ami contented. Mr. Gomez came to
this i art of Florida 60 years ago, and has
resided on his isiaud, the Ponce de Leon,
one of the Ten Thousand group, ever siuce,
except when oil fishing, bunting, or coast
ing. He claims to be the first white man
who sailod up tbe Caloosahatchee. About
forty years ago he lust a fine schooner in a
fearful storm which cost him $5,900, and
he has never recovered from the loss finan
cially.
Rica AN "> SUGAR CAN®.
R iilmm e Valiey to bo Transferred
Into Cane and Rice Plantations.
Hamilton Dimton, in conversation with
the SL Augustine correspondent of the
Standard, gives some interesting informa
tion regarding the operations of the Disston
oompaay, of wh'eh he is the head, and o:
the capabilities of the soil which has been
rendered fit for cultivation.
The work of reclamation was begun ten
Tears ago uader contract with the state.
There a> e now 500,000 acres of land avail
able for growing crops.
“ What do you think will be the prinoipal
crops raised r’ •
“Sugar and rice will lead. The quality
of the land is uniformly rich, and it has
been practically demonstrated that an aver
age of 4,000 pounds of sugar to the acre is
not a high estimate, as actual tests have
shown a much higher yield. The average
consumption of sugar m the United States
is computed at fifty pounds for each indi
vidual, or estimating the popula
tion of tbe country at 65.0J0,-
000, would amount to 3,250,000,000,
pounds, if the entire acreage were
planted in sugar it would amount to 2,000,-
000,000 pounds or nearly two-thirds of the
entire consumption. I believe that by
means of tbe bounty now paid for the pur
pose of encouraging the production of sugar
in the United States, and it is tbe opinion
of Rrof. Wiley, the chemist cf the national
department of agriculture, in less than fif
teen years the entire amount of sugar con
sumed in the United States, will be raised in
this country.
"Experimental stations are to be erected
at various centers of sugar industry,
Nebraska for the analysis of beet sugar,
Kansas for sorghum and Florida and Louisi
ana for cane sugar. If no change is made
in the policy of the government respecting
the bounty, the production of sugar will
amount to millions of dollars in Florida
alone.
"As for rice culture, that too is in its
infancy, but is destined to become a great
money crop for Florida. The Kelly broth
ers, old Louisiana rice planters, are putting
out an immense acreage of rice around
Runnymede, and are confident from results
already obtained that it is tbe best rice
growing country in the world. They have
a mill erected with a capacity of 500
bu beta of rough rioe per day.
“We are doing all we canto induce the
cultivation of rice. Our lands are for sale
to all who wish to purchase, tpit in order to
induce im migration we will lease any
amount of land free for the first year, and
will take the rent in the succeeding years in
rice, according to the amount raised. This
is not ouly a more liberal proposition than
can be obtained from Louisiana rice
growers, where a stipulated price must be
paid, crop or no crop, but at the same time
it demonstrates our faith in the virtue of
the soil.” .
Mr. Disston was never so confident of
the results of his undertaking as at presont,
and expects to see vast changes ami a re
markable increase within tbe next few
years in the wealth, population and pro
ductiveness of the Kissimmee valley.
TRASH IN COTTON.
A Remedy Suggested by a Maine
Mill Agent.
A proposition, says the Boston Adver
tiser, has just been advanced by G. W.
Beau, agent of the Androscoggin mills at
Lewiston, for a combination among the
mills of that city and of Biddeford for the
purpose of ginning their own cotton by
es abli-hing an agency and a ginning center
in some good cotton growing region and
making their own contracts for delivery.
It has long been a matter of surprise that
our manufacturers have been ns patient as
they have in accepting the dirt aid trash
whioh has been sent here from the south in
cotton of various grades, and some such
movement as the oue t oted above was not
unexpected by those familiar with the facts.
The stranger does it seem that that the
abuse bos been allowed to goon year af.er
year when it is considered that similar at
tempts to impose upon southern mills are
quickly resented and badly-ginned and
dirty cott n, when found by them, is re
turned to the shippers with little ceremony.
As Mr. Bean suggests, they save 2 per cent,
by this pqfipy of insisting on cloan giuning,
and our lAifis, by making sure that their
cotton whs cotton before it left the south,
would derive a like benefit. He cites the
tumble-down cotton gin houses, especially
of South Carolina and Georgia, to show the
iunability of mauy shippers to send better
cotton than they are now furnishing, and
as tbe owners are not likely
to erect better gins while the present ones
ca t be made to serve the purpose, nothing
short cf some such movement as the one
suggested by the Ijewistou mill age.it will
insure the results for which ho in common
with other manufacturers has long hoped.
It is safe to predict that if the Lowtston-
Biddeford plan is inaugurated, that it will
be looked upon with considerable intereit
by cotton manufacturers everywhere, and
if successful, the scheme of mill co-opera
tion in cotton ginning will find many'imi
tators, for as we have intimated above, the
trouble from which relief is sought is in no
way local in its nature, but affects every
oommunity where the cotton industry is a
factor.

“A Modern Instance”
Is sometimes more satisfactory than any number of “Wise Laws.”
There are thousands and thousands of modem instances in which
Swift’s Specific, has justified all the claims made
for it as the greatest of vegetable remedies for
diseases that -* have in their origin impure blood
and a debilitated condition of the system. Mr. John H. Lyles, of
Sorento, 111., writes: “I suffered for five years with mercurial rheu
matism, which was the result of potash and mercurial treatment by
physicians for constitutional blood poison. They not only failed
to cure me, but made me a physical wreck and my life a burden. I
then commenced taking Swift’s Specific, pspaKH and after using a
few bottles was entirely cured of the rheu- KfeexJ m^t i sm which the
doctors brought on by their remedies, and of the blood poison which
they had failed to cure.”
