FLORIDA’S THIRD PARTY.
Only Thirty Delegates at the State
Convention at Ocala.
Ocala, Fla., March 8. —The People**
party delegates met to-day to form a state
organization. Only about thirty delegate*
were present. The first thing done was to
appoint a oommittee of five on a state
organization. The committee consisted of
J. D. Cross, William Hickson, T. Little. J.
D. Sistrunk and John Cox. Cross was made
fthalrman and B. Sutton, editor of the
Ocala Demands, secretary. A preamule
and resolution* were read by sections and
adopted. Their substance is as follows:
Since both the old national parties have
transferred most of the property from the
bands of the laboring classes into the hands
of the speculating class _ and
the laboring classes own* less
than 25 per cent of the property
and pay 7a tier cent, of the taxes, it is high
time to oall a halt in such unjust and un
equal laws. We charge that both parties
are under the influence of the money power
and agree to ignore in the campaign the
people's interest: that the old parties are
crying tar ill to again blind the people; that
the old parties propose to control the prod
ucts of labor and will sacrifice its homes
and children on the altar of mammon. In
consequence, we indorse the actions of the
people's conventions at Cincinnati and St.
Louis looking to separate independent po
litical action in the coming campaign
as the only remedy to correct the
abases |complained of. The delegates
pledge their support to the action of the
Omaha convention. Hence they organize
themselves into a separate and independent
political party to be known as the People's
party of Florida, and ask all persons, re
gardless of previous political aiTiliations, to
unite with them.
An executive committee of three was ap
pointed, consisting of O. Riobardson, F. 11.
Lytle and E. J. Sistrunk. Power was given
the committee to augment their number to
twenty-five persons from various portions
of tbe state, whose duty it will be to see
that notices shall be published in all coun
ties in the state to hold county meetings
not later than the fourth Saturday in Marco,
in conformity with tbe St. Louis conference,
to elect delegates to a state convention,
which in turn will send delegatee to Omaha
July 4.
The Ocala Demand was Indorsed as the
organ of the People’s party of Florida
O. Richardson and John Cox of Levy
county drove forty miles to attend this
meeting. Though few in numbers, the
gathering was mighty in'spirit.
BASEBALL AT OCALA.
The Brooklyn Club Defeats Tampa by
a tcore of 11 to 3.
Ocala, Fla., March 8. —The first game
between the Brooklyn base ball team, which
now represents Ocala in tbe Florida state
league, and the Tampa team to <k place
here to-day, and despite tbe threatening
weather. was well attended. Tampa put up
Lawson and Collins, their strongest battery,
while the borne team presented Burns and
Daly; Lawson striking out four and Burns
nine men. Tampa went to tbe bat first,
but failed to do much damage. When' the
home boys began to step up to tbe plate and
“line ’em out,” the winners were not hard
to locate. The heavy bittiDg and sharp
base play of the Brooklynites were tbe
features of the game. Lawson and his men
were “not in it” from start to finish, losing
the game to Ocala by a score of 11 to 8.
Manager Ward is getting his men In excel
lent condition and tbe heavy hitting league
clubs will have to keep their best eye open
when they get down to business on April
14. “Hub" Collins arrived to-day aud
seems to have fully recovered from tbe
effects of his collision with Burns last sea
son. “Hub” is a fine player, and will do
food work for tbe Brooklyn* this year.

shape, aud as jolly as ever. Another game
will be played to-morrow.

A LIFE RACE FOR A CUP.
Capt. Price of Brunswick One of the
Contestants for the Trophy.
Brunswick, Ga., March 8. —Capt. J. T.
8. Price of Brunswick is running a life
race for an historic trophy. He is one of
the twenty servivors of the old Palmetto
regiment of South Carolina. Just after
the war of 1812 the ladies of South Caro
lina presented Gen. Jackson with a beau
tiful and cosily cup indicative of taeir ap
preciation of tbe bravery and
gallantry displayed by him at
tbe nattle of New Orleans. When Gen.
Jackson died his will ordered tbe cup to be
given to the bravest soldier in South Caro
lina in tbe next war which should occur.
The cup was carefully put away m the state
archives at Columbia to await the outcome
of the next war. The next war was the
Mexican. South Carolina sent out the
Palmetto regiment, 1,100 strong, only 300
of which came back. The question as to
who should have the cup arose and the
legislature appointed a commission to
decide. The commission could reach no
conclusion, as every man had fought well,
thereupon they decided that the last sur
vivor of tbe 300 should have the cup. Only
twenty are left aDd in tbe life race for the
trophy no one can tell who will be tbe win
ner. Capt. Prioe is In the 60s; his hair is
white as snow, but he is of a buoyant and
enthusiastic nature, and hopes to outlive
tbe other nineteen.

held her prosperity and growth in check
for years was settled at the polls to-day.
This was water works election day, and a
day of much anxiety. When the polls were
opened this morning the anti-works folks
and their opponents were on the grounds to
battle for tbeir rights. The battle didn’t
last long before tbe “antis” fell back and
water works carried tbe day by a ballot of
531 to 26. Tnis settles tbe question, aud tbe
city will immediately go to work to issue
bonds for tbe erection of a complete system
of water works and sewerage, costing about
160,000.

to go with them some distance from the
public road. He was robbed of 70 cents, all
the money he had. One negro boy threat
ened him with a drawn razor, and tbe other
with a drawn knife. After they had robbed
him, they told him if he ever divulged
the fact they would surely kill him. Their
excuse for the outrage was that the buy
owed them, and they thought they had a
right to take such a step to make the collec
tion. The negro boys are 14 to 16 years of
age, and are named John and Jim Barney
respectively.

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, MARCH 9, 1892
NERVE ON THE DRIVER'S SEAT.
An Old Btager Whoee Coolness Saved
the Lives of Bis Passengers.
From the Omaha Bee.
The heroism and bravery of Robert Em
ery is an example to every schoolboy in
Nebraska to-day. Gage county has the
honor of being his homo and Beatrice bis
abiding place.
In 1861 Robert Emery was a stage driver
along tbe St. Joe and Denver route. In
August of that year occurred the great
Indian raid, when so many settlers lost
their lives. There were nine passengers in
hia coach, seven men and two ladies. Al
though exceedingly dangerous, he offered
to drive to Liberty farm, where his brother
Charles lived. The morning of Aug. 9,
1864, was beautiful. The sky was clear
and a cool, refreshing breeze came up from
the northwest. The coach left the station of
Big Sandy with its freight of human lives
drawn by four large and mettled steeds, in
which the driver bad unbounded confidence
and over them perfect control. The journey
was without accideot or unusual incident
until about 11 o’oiock, up to which time no
signs of Indians bad been seen. But, just as
the lead horses Md pasted over the bill and
were on a spur that led into the bottom
land or valley—this was narrow and bor
dered on either side by deep ravines, worn
by the water—and before the coach had
oonnnenced the descent the driver dis
covered a band of Indians about thirty rods
in advance. He wheeled the horses in an
Instant—two rods further on he could not
have accomplished tbe turn—and, laying
the whip to their backs, commenced an Im
petuous retreat. Tbe passengers were terri
fied, and were at once on their feet. Emery
said: “It you value your lives, for God’s
sake keep your seats, or we are lost.”
Tbe Indians, about fifty in number, gave
chase with tbeir terrifying ‘ yell, aud for
nbout three miles, which w ere accomplished
in about twelve minutes, pursued and
pursuers made the most desperate efforts at
speed. Tbe savage veils of those blood
thirsty villains and the wails of despair of
the men and women in the coaoh are past
the power of pen to describe. But to the
glory of the driver be it said that he was
the only steady-nerved and unexcited per
son in this memorable chase. The coaoh
bristled with arrows, “like quills upon the
fretful porcupine.” They grazed young
Emery on every side and cut the tarett off
the head of the wheel horse, but the young
man heeded nothing but bis driving.
There were two points at which all would
have been lost but for the driver’s wonder
ful presence of mind. There were two
abrupt turns in the road where the coaoh
would have been thrown over had he not
brought the team to a halt and turned with
care. This he did to the dismay of some of
the passengers, who saw escape only in
speed, but tbeir subsequent praise of bis
conduct was as great as his courage was
cool and calculating. George Constable,
who was conducting an ox train over the
route, saw the coach about a mile ahead, and
at once corraled his tweuty-flve wagons.
The brave driver drove his nine passengers
into this shelter and safety. Words could
not express the gratitude felt for their hero
and deliverer, in the delirium of delight
they embraced and kissed him and thanked
God that be had held the lines, and that
they were in a position where they oould
not interfere. The noble steeds were not
forgotten. The passengers petted them and
cast their arms about their necks with feel
ings of grateful emotion.
This memorable drive would never be
forgotten, though not recorded here, for the
story would be handed down to posterity by
the successive generations of the saved.
The hero of that day’s chaie won not bis
best laurels in that hour, for wherever he
was known his gentle manner and kind
deeds won for him a welcome in every
heart. Devoid of boastful pretence, he
wore meekly his woll-deeervei honors, and
silently carried a hero’s heart. HU health
was frail, and in about a year he was pros
trated with fever, aud, while upon hU death
bed, vet still conscious, Mrs.
Randolph, one of tbe number he saved
from a horrible death, plaoed upon his
finger a beautiful gold ring, in which was
engraved tbe following: "E. Umphrey, G.
C. Randolph, aud Hattie P. Randolpn to
Robert Emery, in acknowledgment of wbat
we owe to his cool oouduct and good driving
Tuesday. Aug. 9,1864.” Soon after this he
passed away from these scenes of warfare
to tbe sileut and peaceful realm of the
dead. The dootor who attended him in his
last hours eulogized him as a silent hero
and one of the noblest of mankind.
AN OLD WOMAN’S REVENGE.
She Fed Four Men on a Herb Whioh
Made Them Raving Maniacs.
FYom the Philadelphia Telegraph.
Julio Vargas, a ranchman, who lives
about forty miles across the Mexican bor
der, was in Laredo, Texas, last week and
told a terrible story of revenge which had
been taken by an old woman in his neigh
borhood. There had been a feud bet weep
two families in his vicinity, and this feud
drew in several other families, until there
was a regular neighborhood war. The Pin
ions and Morelos were bitter enemies, and
in a running battle five or six of the male
members of the Pinion family were killed
and left on the field. This was several Years
ago, and with the killing there were left no
male members of the Pinzon family.
This caused the feud to gradually die out
between the other people who had been
drawn into it, and, in fact, the whole oc
currence bad been almost forgotten by tne
people, among whom a man’s life counts
very little.
There was one person, however, who had
not forgotten, but who had sworn a solemn
oath as binding ns the vendetta oath of the
Sicilians. This was old Marguerite Pinzon,
the mother of the family. She became are -
cluse and was looked upon as a sort of witch
by the people who lived near her, but as she
did no harm she was not molested. She
spent much time among herbs, and became
famed for her cures.
She also became a noted cook, and when
ever any of the wealthy families gave a din
ner It became customary to call upou old
Marguerite to assist iu preparing the dain
ties. About a month ago Marguerite was
sent for to prepare the cooking of a dinner
lor a family, and the guests of honor ou the
occasion were four male mo 1 bers of the
Morelos family. The old woman insisted ou
waiting on the table as well as cooking the
food, and she gave to each of the Morelos a
specially prepared dish. The result was that
the four are now raving maniacs, uaving
eaten a decoction of the deadly loco weed,
the effects of which are to poison the mind
to such an extent that the partaker thereof
goes raving mad.
A Cure for Insomnia.
From the Elmira Gazette.
It has been found in most cases that in
somnia is caused by disordered stomach,
says an authority. Betweeu tho stomach
and the brain there is a close communion,
and when one is out of order the other is
not only apt but sure to bo. Worry will
unsettle the stomach as indigestion will in
ilate the blood vessels of the brain. Recog -
oiziug this, medical men are now ordering
the use of hot water internally and ex
ternally. Before going to bed tne person so
afflicted should bmho tbe lower limbs in hot
water —as hot as possible.
This is for the purpose of drawing tho
blood from the bead, for when tho blood
vessels are inflated they press against the
skull, and fears, apprehensions and dread
of going to sleep result. But with the hot
water application the blood is circulated and
the pressure relieved. Next the sleepless one
is advised to drink hot water, with the juice
of a lemon or a little table salt adde I. This
will settle the stomach and distribute the
gases. There will, of course, come times
when the hot water will not have tbe de
sired effect, or it may be slow lu its curative
effects. But do not be impatient if it will
not put you to sleep to-night, though it did
last night. I’orsist iu the application, and
a- the prescription contains no “deadlj
drugs, ” you can afford to wait, for I y so
doing a permanent cure is sure to follow.
HE BELIEVES IN DREAMS,
And He Gives fate Reasons, Which Ap
pear to Be Convincing.
From the Sew YorkAun.
“Some folks don’t believe i dreams, bat
I do," said ol of a group of- tnen-about
town who were discussing subjects which
treated on the superstitious -land spiritual
istic, and to tjie spirituous and superfine “I
had ha 1 dreams and dreams, of course,
and had awakened from many glad
that tt.ey were not true, and from
many others sorry they were dreams. But
that any dream, whatsoever might be Its
nature, could have any significance beyond
the mere fact that it was a dream I never
considered seriously except In the way of
shifting until a month ago. Then one night
I had a dream. I thought 1 was walking up
Broadway and suddenly something said to
me: ‘Say, you’ll pick up one-fifth of the
money you have iu your pockets before you
go two blocks.’
“That was all there was to the dream,
and 1 never thought another thing about it
until tbe next forenoon, right on the corner
of Twenty-ninth street and Broadway, I
saw a bank note tumbling along the side
walk. I picked it up. It was a S2O-note.
Suddenly the dream flashed across my
mind. Thes2o-note was just one-fifth of
tbe money I already had with me.
“Well, of course 1 was a little startled,
b it passed tbe matter by as one of the queer
coincidences a fellow runs up against once
in a w hile. A week after that I had another
dream, and it was exactly the counterpart
of tbe first one. So little impression had
the sequence of the first one made on me
that this second one passed from my mind
and was not recalled to it until, on going
up Broadway, I p,eked up asl bank note.
Then it occurred to me that I had only $5
with me. I had found the one
tifth of the money I had on my person, as
tbe dream said 1 would, and I kicked my
self for not puttiDg ail tbe money in my
pockets I oould get hold of before leaving
home. Of course this repetition of tbe
dream made quite an impression on me, and
when, a week or so later, I bad the same
dream over again, I didn’t forget It next
day and put all the money in my pocket
that I had, and 1 was madder tban
a Betting hen because I bad paid
out the day before ali the money I
had available, except $55 —a SSO note
and ass note. Now, maybe you won’t be
lieve it, but just as true as I sit here, right
on the corner of Broadway and Twenty
fourth street I headed off a vagrant bank
note as it was tumbling down the street
before the wind. I pioked it up. It was a
little, measly $1 note.
“ ‘Well!’ said I, ‘my dream was a trifle off
in its figures last night, certain. One dollar
isn’t the fifth of $55, not by a long shot!”
“But I kept the dollar, and in tbe oourse
of the day had oocasion to shove out my SSO
note to get obangod and tl was promptly
shoved back at me.
“ 'Counterfeit!’said the cosher.
"So my dream was right, after all. I
really had but $5 in money on my person
when I found the $1 note, and of oourse the
find was the one-fifth of that. You may
well believe that I began to be shaken in
iny skeptical opiniou of dreams, and I be
gan to make a study of the subject. The
other night 1 had another dream. This
dream told me that the next day I would
lose instead of find money. Something said
tome: ‘You will lose on Broadway the
amount of money you have found and
$l5O more.’
“I smiled when I started away next morn
ing. for I took just $5 with me, leaving all
the rest of my money home.
“I’ll settle this dream business ” I 4 aid.
“I* didn’t use any money to speak of all
day, and started home early with $3. On
my way down Broadway l met a friend,
and he asked me if I had an fcour or so, and
I said I had. We went to his room. Some
of tbe boys were there. 1 borrowed S2O of
my friend. 1 only stayed an hour. When
I got home I ooonted up. I owed my friend
$173, all lost on the last jaek pot. Then,
for tha first time, my dream oame to me.
One hundred and seventy-three dollars!
The amount I bad found and $l3O besides,
and I had lost it I

say so 1”
THE INFERNAL FIRS.
Ita Constituents Sulphur and Fitob,
and Its Color Green.
From the Nineteenth Century.
It has been proved over and over again
by others besides Jerome and Tartullian that
the fire of hell is a terrible reality; that it is
corporeal, material; that Its constituents
are probably sulphur and fluid pitch. The
sulphur slinks. This is satisfactorily shown
by quite a swarm of learned authorities.
Infidel quibbliugs hare been easily quashed.
How can incorporeal spirits be burned!
Answer: By incorporeal fire. How can ma
terial bodies be burned forever! Answer:
By the analogues of the asbestos and the
salamander; or, again, by a certain salting,
antlseptio virtue; or, again, by an omnipo
tent implanting in the fire of a certain force
which burns but consumes not.
The causes of its intense heat are mani
fold. There is the divine justlos and the
confined nature of the situation; there is
also the antuperistasis of external cold. Tbe
fact of the intense beat is proved by the
Cacodemon himself, who, though a liar and
the father of lies, may in this matter be
considered a credible witness. At all events
he would rather lessen tban exaggerate Its
force. Caesarias, a Cisterian of Heisterback,
says that in a town called Enthenrich, in
Bonn, a certain Walter, when sick, saw
Satan with a face like a monkey
and goat's horns. Walter asked him
about the fate of his late master, Count
William of Juliers. "You know,” replied
the demon, “the district between Wolken
burg aud Drachenfels. In faith, I tell you
that if that district and those mountains
were both made of iron and set in that
place where tbe soul of your master now is
they would be molted antequam, super
ciiium, suoerius inferior! jungi posset—in a
word, before you could wink.”
The color of bell fire is probably a lurid
green, no light, but rather darkness visible
There is cold in hell, but no water, it is
not improbable that there are corporeal
worms, in tbe sense of serpents, and im
mortal, of which some say they are as
thick as the rushes ou the floor. But this
is a matter of subtle inquiry and abstruse;

Hood’s Sarsaparilla do not be Induced to take
any other. A Boston lady, whose example Is
worthy Imitation, tells her experience below:
“ In one store where I went to buy Hood’s
Sarsaparilla the clerk tried to induce me buy
their own instead of Hood's; he told me their’s
would last longer; that I might take it on ten
To Get
days’ trial; that if I did not like It I need not
pay anything, etc. But ho could not prevail
on me to change. I told him I had taken
Hood’s Sarsaparilla, knew what it was, was
satisfied with it, and did not want any other.
When I began taking Hood's Sarsaparilla
I was feeling real miserable wltti dyspepsia,
and so weak that at times I could hardly
Hood’s
stand. I looked like a person in consump
tion. Hood's Sarsaparilla did me so much
good that 1 wonder at myself sometimes,
and my friends frequently speak of it.” M rs.

This rigid and early doctrine of hell, elab
orated by tbe fathers with more of cold—or
rather warm—barbarity tban artistic skill,
it always honored with a prominent place
in religious revivals. It was reserved for
the later church to add those finer touches
of adscitious torment which it is so difficult
to real without deploring the savage and
yet refined ingenuity of the human fancy.
FOUND THE NEEDLE AT LAST.
An Extraordinary Case in Which Doc
tors Cannot Agree.
Springfield, 0., March 6.— Mrs. Frank
J. Baums, of No. 255 West Mulberry street,
while combing her 6-year old daughter's
hair Monday, palled a broken needle an
ineb long from the child's head.
A short time before giving birth to the
child Mrs. Be urns ran a broken needle into
one of her hands, it buried itself under the
flesh, and she has never been troubled with
it since.
It is believed that the needle found in the
child’s head is tbe one she ran into her band.
She says it looks like the same one. The
case is a remarkable one, and doctors differ
aboat it.
Electricity in Zig-Zag Wires.
From Electricity.
Kirchoff, In his paper, “Motion of Elec
tricity in Wires," first showed in 1857 that,
under certain conditions, electrioity moves
in a thin wire according to the laws of
wave motion and with a velocity aboat
equal to that of light. This, however, is
only true of straight wires stretched m the
air. He found that If the wire be in a zig
zag form, or wound in a spiral, the veloc
ity of propagation exceeded that of light.
Prof. J. Stephen has recently been study
ing tbe same question, using tbe method of
Hertz, namely, of producing stationary
waves and comparing the length of the
wavee in straight wires with those in cir
cuits.
He finds them longer in the latter them in
the former, aud tbe increased velocity of
propagation in the latter over light much
greater than that given by Kirchoff or
Wheatstone, who has also investigated the
subject.

This is a combination of camphor and pine
tar. If packed with your woolen goods moths
will not invade them. One-third the price of
camphor-gum and ten times better for passing
purposea. More convenient, because it doesn't
evaporate, and it is not neosssary to disturb
your good* after they are put away. Will not
stain or soil the material. A little sunning and
the odor quickly evaporates. Nothing superior
to odor of tar to improve the general hygienic
