mi : ' . m Hi Florida’s Great Crop. Macon Telegraph* The common opinion that “there’s millions” in Florida oren ges will be'strengthened by the re suits of the present season’s yield, and the excellent prices now paid for the frnit, and which are likely to continue. Estimates of the present Florida orange crop vary very widely. It is placed as high as 2,500,000 boxes by some, which would be over (u)0,000 boxes in ex cess of the large crop of last year. Most estimates, however, are much lower, the I lorida Fruit Exchange predicting that the total crop will be about 1,750,000 boxes. The prevailing opinion in Florida is that the crop vill far exceed those figures. All authorities are agreed as to the excellent quality of the oranges which are being marketed from Florida this season. New York and Boston^ buyers say they have never known the early fruit to be so fine, and reports from Florida indicate £that the best or anges ever grown in that state will be found in this year’s crop. □Florida oranges always demand good prices, because they are rec- ognized as the best fruit of "their kind, and the failure of nearly ev- ery other fruit crop this year will tend to raise the price of oranges considerably above * what if was last season. The exportation of Florida or anges was begun as an experiment by an enterprising Boston firm in 1886, and proved so successful that larger exportations ' have been made every year. It is said that preparations have!'been made to export Florida oranges on a large scale this season. Wherever they are carried their superiority is rec ognized. It is certain that the present crop will take more money into Florida than|the last, even if- the lowest estimates of its size should prove correct. Naming Colts. New York Sun. Naming'colts as they are brought into the world on a big stock xais- ing’farm might seem to be a sim ple operation, but, just as when the parents of a dozen children find themselves short of names and have to resort to a Biblical or clas sical terminology, so do the owners ’ of a lot of horses kept for the pur pose of raising horses for the turf find themselves running short of names? Who has failed to notice the odd nomenclature of the race courseb The proprietor of a farm and" a’big lot of thoroughbreds in Pennsylvania has made a rule for himself. To all the colts born -in • the first year, Under this rule, he gave names beginning with A, in the second year B. and so on. He put the idea into practice nine years ago, and has reached the let- er I. Sometimes there are queer combinations of names. For in Btance, a colt was named Harmony, and the next year his brother had tacded to him the name Impudence, As the breeder has fifteen colts this year to be named frith names' be ginning with the letter I, he con fesses himself puzzled to originate attractive and orotund m enough to go around. Hon. Don Dickinson, at the Thurman banquet, speaking of the democracy of the future, said: We believe in the intelligence and honesty of American people. We believe that t he sole end of legislation should be the greatest good to the greatest number. We believe that the management of all domestic affairs should be left to ths states and in home rule in the subordinate government within the states. We believe that there is no sov ereignty except in the people, and that the general government should keep its hands off the elective fran chise. We believe that there is no pow er in the legislative branch of the general government except such has been, or shall be, expressly dele- gated to the congress by the con stitution. We believe the power to tax can not be delegated to favored indi viduals or classes, and that no pub lic treasure- or public domain should be granted away in subsi dies or bounties. With] the faith, and because of this faith, the democratic party does not die, but ’survives defeat, contumely and even the penalty of grave mistakes. The great honest masses of the republican partyjare coming to be lieve, as they reflect on the cause of its survival, that the democratic will not and should not die. Amend The Constitution. Boston Globe. ■r. If there is any sense or. reason in allowing a] defeated and con demned congress to go and legisr late for three months after the peo ple have repudiated it, we should like to have Unexplained.’ We see no sense in it' The congress elected a month ago should assemble in Washington on December 1, 1890, just as well as the congress • can. It would be fresh from the people, prepared to do the people’s will. It would, not be disgraced and dis credited, with the stamp of the people’s condemnation upon it. Some member of congress ought to propose a constitutional amend ment making each congress ex pire by limitation at least one month prior to the election of its successor, so that .the spectacle of legislation by a repudiated con gress—a spectacle which will soon be seen in Washington—will be seen no more. We believe the peo ple would ratify such an amend ment with practical unanimity. Westorn School Rules. San Francisco Examiner* The following is said to be a lit eral copy of the rules posted on a school house door up in the Big Bend country: “Each pupil is requested to make a bow on entering the School House of morning, also on leaving of the School Room of evening There shall be no profain language used in School nor on the play grounds nor shall there be no pin- sticking, pinchin, scrachin’ nor no taggin, nor no uneasy Whispering in School. No pupil shall leave fhe School House without permis sion of the Teacher. No uneasy moven from seat. No fitin oh the road from nor to School nor no Nicknamin. Every pupil over eight years shall be subj'ec tothese rules, and the teacher is to make allowance for all pupils under eight and enforce the rules accorden. If any scholars brakes these rules that shall be punished by .switch- en.” _ It is estimated that the railroads of the United States lose §2,000,- 000 yearly by landslides, 85,000,000 by floods, §1,000,000 by fire, and S9,000,000 by collissions. A Scrap of Paper Saves Her Life. It was just an ordinary scrap of wrapping paper, but it saved her life. She was in the last stages of consumption, told by physicians that she was incurable and could live only a short time;-she weigh ed less than seventy pounds. Gn a piece of wrapping paper she read of Dr. King’s New Discovery, and got a sample bottle; it helped her, she bought a large bottle, it helped "her more, bought another and grew better fast, continued its use and is now strong, healthy, rosy, plump, weighidg 140 pounds.

There is a prejudice in the rural districts of this State against bach elors, says the Portland Oregoni- People in every out-laying settlement are opposed to bache lors taking up claims in their vi cinity. An exchange says: “There are some splendid claims on Dead- wood Creek not yet taken, as good as any on the coast. The citizens want men wi h families to settle on them. Three of the claims were taken by bachelors last fall. The ladies of Deadwood’passed a reso lution placing a three years’ limit on celibacy in that district, and providing all bachelors not married at the end of that time be run out of the settlement or hanged.” Five bachelors moved out, one got married and two have gone into the sparking business. Italy has ordered the' study of English to be added to the cuHeu- Inm of all Italian universities, and has endowed the necessary profes sorships for that purpose. Everything Else Foiled. I am now 28 years old, and from the time I was seven years of age until 1885,1 suffered with a severe case of Scrofula. During this time I took every known remedy, but to no purpose. My father took me to North Carolina, where I was put under the treatment of an emi nent physician. The medicines given me had only a temporary ef fect, for shortly after my return the Scrofula broke out in a more malignant form, and I was worse off than ever before. Jn 18851 discontinued taking all other med icines and commenced taking Swift's Specific (S. S. S.) I took a number of bottles and it cured me. I have been free from Scrof ula frim that time until now. T. A. SlZEUORE, Piedmont, S. C. BE STOKED HER HEALTH.
