IN MARION COUNTY, FLA. Theories of Chemists and Geologists Put to flight—Options Being Sc« cured on supposed Valuable Lands at Citra, i‘ ia.—Xew Apparatus. Ocala, 3TIa., July 9—Referring to the discovery of oii indications in this | section, the most; notable statement as ! to its existence is told by County Com- I missiouer Ed L. Wartmauu of Citra. He savs that about 14 years ago when j Jitmes A. Harris was having an artesian well bored on his place at Citra an oil stream was struck at a depth of 820 feet, after boring through a strata of kennel coal. The oil was in sufficient quantity to grease the large well ropes for a distance of 200 or 300 feet. Story Continued. Mr. Harris, who is extremely con scientious and cautious in any state ment he may make, confirms this story. In a letter written by Mr. Harris, he says: “1 bored the well at Citra to the depth of 800 feet. At oue place quite a little oil would come up with the water, a scum would form on top if allowed to stand for any considerable time. ” Mr. Hamilton, who is a professional well-borer, and has sunk many well- 1 , also confirms the story. He says it is the deepest well that he has bored in this section, and contains the most de cided indications of oil. Options Secured. Options on supposed oil lands are still being secured, but nothing definite can be known until a well is sunk and an oil reservoir is or is not reached. A gentleman from Oil City, Pa., says it must be borne in mind that the drill o: the well borer often puts the theories of chemists and geologists to flight. Apropos of the oil discovery, one of Ocala’s most expert chemists has sent an order for the latest and most im proved apparatus for making analytical tests of oil substances, and we shall soon have some definite knowledge of what the supposed oil surface inaica- tf ns really are. whether the genuine ar ticle or some other substance resemb ling it.

Plant City, Fla., July 10.—A fatal duel with shotguns has been fought near this place, and as a result Edward Franklin, a farmer, is dead and David Kinard, Franklin's son-in-law, Mrs. Kinard and their baby are all seriously wounded. Franklin had employed a farm hand to do some plowing, for which he was to receive 700 strawberry plants. The work having been finished, Franklin gave an order on Kinard for the plants. When the employed man presented the order Kiuard refused to fill it. This was reported to Franklin, who immediately armed himself with a shot gun and went to the Kinard home. Ar riving there, he immediately opened fire on his son-in-law, missing him, but striking and seriously wounding his daughter and grandchild. Kinard ran for his gnu and returned the fire. An other volley was fired at each other, Franklin failing dead and Kinard being seriously wounded. Kiuard has not been arrested. POISONED BY SALADS.

Sep tember 7 has been officially appointed by the authorities of the Pan-American exposition as Florida day at the exposi tion. Two Florida military companies and one band, the latter from Pensaco la have already signified an intention to’be at the exposition'on that day, ana there is a strong probability that other organizations will go, so that the state will be well represented. No program for Florida day has yet been announced, but it is altogether urobable that one will be arranged There will doubtless be receptions, and nerhaps addresses and the usual cere monies incident to such occasions.

LaGrange, Ga., July 8.—A party of picnickers, 25 in number, left on the j Macon, LaGrange and Birmingham ; road Friday morning to spend the day I at Warm Springs. The outing was planned for the ) Fourth, but so many negroes were going out on the train that the ladies objected and the picnic was postponed for one day. Those composing the party had prepared lunch on the third to be eaten on the Fourth at Warm Springs, but as the outing was post poned a day the salads—chicken salad, salmon salad and potato salad—were kept over until the fifth. 1 All partook of the salads and 19 out o: | 25 were made deathly sick, only a few I of the 19 being able to make the trip : home. Those who came home are up today, but are very weak. The reports from those at Warm Springs are that they are doing well. It is supposed that the potato salad pois oned them. So many of the party were suddenly taken sick that there were not enough of well ones to wait on them. However, a number of LaGrange peo ple were at the hotel and were called and the invalids were properly looked after. COTTON GROWERS’ MEETING Program of Exercises of Annual Con vention at Macon.

INVESTIGATION PENDING : Alleged Had Handling of the Euiiow- i meut Rank Fund, Which Is Declared | ed to Be Unavai able For Use Ex- I cept at Great Sacrifice. Chicago, July 9.—Behind closed aud carefully guarded doors the supreme lodge, Knights of Pythias, today met here in special session, to consider the alleged injudicious handling of the funds of the Endowment rank of the order. Members of the fraternal organisation both in the United States and Canada are said to be intensely interested in the outcome of the investigation, a report of which will be made during the present meeting by President C. F. S. Neal of the board of control of the Endowment rank. Fund- Unavailable. It is said that §500,000, the entire fund of the endowment rank, may be so badly handled during the past few years that it is unavailable for nse ex cept at a great sacrifice. Meanwhile the death rate has increased to such an extent that the rank is §100,000 behind on death claims. Along with a discussion of the proper treatment for the officials said to be re sponsible for the condition will be the consideration of new measures for the restoration of the rank to its former basis. Special Assessment Probable. A special assessment of insured mem bers and an increase in the monthly payments of insurance were said to be probable by members of the supreme lodge before they went into session. The meeting will coutinue three days, or possibly longer, it is thought. BELIEVED TO BE DEMENTED. Young Girl of Colorado Victim of Horrible Outrage. Denver, July 9.—Jesse Kinpert, the 14-year-old danghter of Carrie D. Kin- pert, who resides at 119 West Ninth avenue, was assaulted and horribly mu tilated iu her room during the absence of her mother last night. Mrs. Kiupert had been away during the evening and upon returning home found the doors open. Hastening to her daughter’s room, she found the bed clothes strewn about and blood spat tered over the room. The girl was no where to be seen. She aroused the neighbors, who be gan searching the neighborhood. About midnight they found the girl in a va cant lot near by, unconscious, with numerous cuts and bruises on her body. Chris Jensen was brought to the station by a policeman in the outskirts of the city. Jensen was found abont a mile from the place of assault. When the policeman approached Jensen the latter whipped out a knife and shouted that he would not be taken to jaiL The po licemen captured him, however, and brought him to jail. On the way ne spoke of having been compelled to defend himself from a wo man, saying that he had cut her up pretty badly. The knife he had threat ened the officer with was covered with blood. Shortly after Jenson was locked up the police department was notified of assault on the Kmpert girl. The police are sure that Jensen is the guilty party. They believe he is demented. The vic tim of last night’s assault is still alive, but in a critical cond.tion. Chief or Police Strong says Jensen is undoubtedly insane. Jensen says he had once been shot at in Tokepa, Kan., for getting into trou ble with another man’s wife. In the course of his examination at police headquariers Jensen confessed that he assaulted Jessie Kinpert and also that he staboeu another woman last night near the end of the University Park car line. This morning the dead body of Mrs. Builet was found at the place described by Jensen. She had been stabbed iu the breast and the blade of the knife had penetrated her heart, causing sudden death. The body lay iu the roadway and there was no evidence of a struggle. Jensen said the woman “was after him,” and so he stabbed her. Mrs. Bullet lives on a ranch near the city.

Russia Tired of Her Retaliatory Tarill Acts. New York, July 3 —It is announced in a Washington dispatch to the Jour nal of Commerce that a decided dispo sition to counteract the acts of retalia tory duties imposed on certain Anieri- ean products has recently been shown by the Russian government. It would seem, from the earnestness of the rep resentations made to the department of state by the Russian ambassador before his departure from Washington aud by the charge d’affairs since then, although it is not openly acknowledged, that Minister De Witte regrets his action in retaliation duties, causing friction be tween the two governments. The Russian government seems to be seeking a reopening of the case in re gard to the countervailing duty on su gar. It is not the volume of Rnssiau sugar imports into the United States, which determines the anxiety of the Russian government in the matter, hut rather its general policy of avoiding friction where nothing is to be gained. The assurance of friendship given by Count Casini and the charge, M. De- Willant, made a favorable impression at the state department, but do not prom ise any immediate result. The single result which may follow the representations of the Russian am bassador is the removal of the reciproc ity negotiations which were abandoned last winter Hon. John A. Kasson, who dealt with most of the reciprocity treaties, is now on leave of absence, Definite arrange ments for a treaty with Russia will probably not be made until his return. FAIRNESS.

McIntosh, Ga., July 10.—Seven pris oners in the county jail at Hinesvilie j escaped last night—six negroes and one white man. It was not discovered un til after daylight. Among them was Farmer Norman, the man who shot Sheriff Brewer abont a year ago while resisting arrest near Riceboro. and clerk of the supreme court, attor ney general, state treasurer and mem ber of the board of public works. The nominations for governor and lieutenant governor are the only ones in which there is not a free-for-all race, with many entries. But the large at tendance is largely due to the reunion of Democrats who have not been to gether in Ohio since 1896. Those who have been called "Gold Democrats” are very largely represented, and many of them have not attended their conven tions in Ohio for years. Nearly all the old leaders of this class are here, and they are given places of prominence on the committees and in the organization generally. Conservative Policy. While they consider the financial question settled, they are actively co operating with those who are being de nominated the “conservatives” in op posing any other so-called isms that they claim will handicap the party as it has been handicapped by certain alli ances in the past. They are with the McLean men as against the Johnson men in the proposed “new departure” of the latter on taxation, municipal ownership, etc. They are bitterly od- posed to the insular policy of the nation al administration and to the present state administration, and want all the Democrats iu Ohio to gather for the purpose of securing control of the legis lature as well as of the electing of the state ticket and to elect a United States senator. At the conferences this morning it was evident that the conservatives would control the 21 congressional dis tricts this afternoon and have ail the committees which meet tonight to pre pare their reports for the convention to morrow morning.

There was much hustling for mem bers of the committee on credentials on account of local fights in some counties, notably Montgomery, Butler and Union. The state committee and the committee on resolutions will be easily in the hands of the conservatives before the district meetings are held, but there is no friction. Every effort seemed to have been made for harmony by the conservatives, but they insisted on harmony being se cured without any compromise with what they termed as “new ideas,” "ex periments,” “experiences, ” etc. $100— Dr. ElDetciion’s Anti-DiurrtU May be worth to you more than $1C0 if you have a child who soils bedding from inconte- nence of water during sleep.
