tnat the summer climate of
Maitland is most delightfully cool
•nd refreshing, owing to the pref
ace of a dozen beautiful dear-water
lakes In the suburbs. Mr. Dommerich j
paid $35,000 for his "Hiawatha Glove."
ar.d for hla residence, hot houses and J
grounds has expended fully SIOO 000, and
despite freezes, he is well pleased with
his large investment. Mrs. Massey has
recently purejipsed the elegant Dr. Nev

in Florida.
A Growine Industry.
A Longwood correspondent inform? the
Morning News that the development of
the palmetto industry is one of the most
remarkable in the history of Florida, and
far exceeds the cotton seed industry, as
the raw material costs nothing be
yond gathering it. Longwood already
has three establishments for gathering
and shipping palmetto leaves, while Or
lando has several factories where they
are dyed and put up in pots and other
wise- for sale in Northern markets, one
of the factories issuing a handsome illus
trated catalogue of various designs pre
pared. The tannic acid factories that use
the palmetto roots are being doubled in
capacity and run day and night. Dr.
Wellington of Jacksonville, late of San
ford. now has his “Metto” in all the
soda fountains and Dr. Peak of Orlando
Is doing the same with his palmetto berry
extract. A big concern in Buffalo, N. Y.,
has also gone into the business;and all this
puts a big lot of ready cash in circula
tion in Florida in exchange for a once
worthless scrub palmetto that cost SSO
an acre to have cleared out and burned.
AVM VERSA II Y CELEBR ATED.
The Reanfort Aolunteer Artillery
Vow HO Years Old.
Beaufort. S. C., June 29.—The one hun
dred and tenth anniversary of the organ
ization of the Beaufort Volunteer Artil
lery was celfbiated here yesterday in a
manner that that command and their
friends will always remember with pleas
ure. The programme of the day was a
most appropriate one. A salute of thir
teen guns was fired at sun rise with a
three inch brass rapid fire gun served by
a picked squad under command of Lieut.
Townsend, and at 10 o’clock ihe company
went to Hundred Pines, where their rifle
range is located, and had a target con
test for a gold medal offered by Lieu
tenant Commanding G. P. Elliott. The
medal was won by Mr. R. E. Jenkins, Jr.,
on a score of 18 out of a possible 25.
In the afternoon the company assem
bled at ihtir armory and proceeded thence
to meet their guests, the Republican
Blues, who were welcomed by a salute of
thirteen puns. The two commands then
went to the arsenal and pat took of a light
lunch, after which they were dismissed
and proceeded to the has-ball park, where
a match game was played, resulting as
foil'" vs: Nine innings with score, Beau
fort 18, Savannah 19. In the evening both
commands, with their invited guests, re
paired to the Court House, where a great
banquet was held in the immense court
room, whi?h was tastefully derorated
with bunting. A table arranged in the
form of an anchor ar.d running the en
t r length cf the roan was leaded to its
utmost capacity with-both solid and liquid
refreshments including the famous B.
V. A. punth. which is ce ebra ed in South
Carolina and will doubtless receive recog
nition in Georgia now that her eons havp
had an opportunity to test it.
AN EXCITING RINAAVAY.
A Baby Rescued From the Path of
the Frightened Horse.
Waycross, Ga.. June 29.—One of the
most exciting runaways occuring here in
many a long day was witnessed by a large
crowd this afternon about 6 o'clock.
Mrs. Eugene McCall and Mrs. Mattie
Baum were out driving in Mrs. McCall's
buggy. When near ihe Southern Hotel
the horse became frightened and dashed
down Plant avenue. The animal darted
around the corner at the First National
Bank and there took the sidewalk on
Mary street. This he kepi until Pendleton
street was reached, all the while being
kept in the middle of the sidewalk by
brave Mrs. McCall, who held firmly to the
lines. As the horse dashed down ihe side
walk those who saw it were horrified to
see a baby carriage with a baby in it di
rectly ahead of the runaway
steed. Their blood almost curdled
as they anticipated an instant
and awful death for the little one.
Just in the nick of time, however. Mrs.
Herrington rushed out and snatched the
baby from its perilous position.
She was none too soon, for after she
lifted the little one from the carriage, llte
horse came by. leaving the baby carriage
in hundreds of splinters. At Pendleton
street, the frightened animal again took
to the sidewalk, but before going far, a
small sycamore tree was struck, and tile
horse broke loose from the vehicle.
Mrs. McCall was thrown out of the,
buggy by the shock, and painfully hurt,
though no bones were broken. Mrs. Baum
was severely shocked, but sustained no
bodily injuries.

Strong Undertone—Turpentine in
Strong Position at the Advance.
Local nnd Telegraphic Alarket*.
Morning New.® Office, June 29. —Much
strength was shown during the past week
in ail the leading markets, which show
material gains over the prevailing prices
on iast Friday. The local cotton market
moved up in response to the advances else
where. which were due to numerous bull
ish influences. Good middling was mark
ed up tgc to-day, middling l-6c, and iotv
middling %c, the prices being -lGc,
nnd 9c, respectively. Business showed
signs of improving throughout the week,
the total sales running to 1.06S bales.
There was much activity in the futures
market to-day. and predictions of 10 cents
for the old crop options were numerous.
The jump in August shows that month
to have gained 120 points within the rast
two weeks. The effect of unfavorable
crop news toward the closing, together
with reports of rains in Alabama, Ten
nessee and Georgia, had the effect of Im
parting further strength to the market,
and fortifying the bull element in an in
vulnerable position. The closing in New
York was very steady, with prices net.
10 to 39 points up on old crop, and 1 to 3
points up on old crop options.
The leading influence in the naval stores
market during the week have contributed
to advances in both spirits turpentine an i
rosins, a: which the demand has been
satisfactory to the trade. The turpentine
market closed on iast Saturday firm at
42'ee. and to-day firm at 43He. Rosins
gained 5 cents on oil grades on Tuesday,
and advanced o cents on F and below an
Thursday.
The strength imparted to the market has
been largely due to the unfavorable weath
er conditions throughout the naval ttfores
belt, which has tended to hinder produc
ers in gathering the product, and is con
sequently looked to as a proboble draw
back to n free movement. Reports have
confirmed the fact that heavy rains have
prevailed in some of the most productive
sections, particularly Florida, and the
southern part of Alabama and Mississippi.
Nothing mars the outlook for the contin
uance of a good demand for turpentine,
as consumption is on the increase in 'he
face of a check, if anything, in the output.
This time l-ast year spirits were quoted ;n
Savannah, quiet at 3CQ cents, with sales
of something over 2£o casks.

COTTON FI TCHES.
The Indication* Point to 10 Cent*
for Old Crop Option*.
New Y’ork, June 29 —From an uneventful
opening the market for cotton futures de
veloped a surprising amount of activity
and a remarkable degree of inherent
strengih with the feature of the day an
advance to 10c by the July’ option.
The weekly statement of statistics from
Liverpool was hardly so bullish as ex
pected, while the public and private ad
vices at hand before our opening failed
to noie any serious change in the situa
tion abroad. The start here was a tol
erably steady one, with prices 3 points
higher to a point lower. The action of
the market during the first few minutes
led room traders to believe that the un
precedented bull movement had about run
its course and that speculation would fall
off to the customary dull summer months
business. But before 10:30 a. m. foreign
representatives stepped to the front as
buyers of the near months, which were
offered with extreme reluctance by local
holders. The South joined In the buying
movement, which grew to a tremendous
proportion as the forenoon progressed.
July made a sheer advance to 9.88, or 15
points above the quotation current two
weeks-ago, and just before the close sold
:t 10 cents, amid intense excitement and
bull enthusiasm. August followed with a
jump to 9.61, making the advance of that
option within two weeks 120 points.
Btrong. late cables, unfavorable crop
news and reported further rains in Ala
bama. Tennessee and Georgia, together
with tumors of a pronounced advance in
spot cotion, on urgent export demand, add
ed to the firm undertone of the market.
Then came ti setback under local realiz
ing, which started soon after the final
English allies were in hand. During the
early afternoon the market seemed in a
position to go lower as foreign orders ap
p-ared to be pretty thoroughly executed
..lo he weather predictions wereexeep
tlonally favorable to the growing crop.
Hut it the opening of the last hour bull
spccu a;k.n quickened and prices resum
ed an upward course, with the summer
months far In the lead. The sole thought
in the minds of room traders seemed to
be that let cents for August was assured,
a: I on tils feeling large blocks of that
delivery weie purchased on this display of
confidence. The market closed very steady
w;<h prices net It! to 39 points up on near
months aid i to 3 points on far months.

COTTON LETTERS.
York. June 29 —Hubbard Bros. &
Cos. say: The Liverpool market con
tinues to lead the advance, though sell
ing freely here, where our stock is rap
idly going abroad. This curious action
of the Liverpool operators is difficult to
explain, but it accounts for the sharp
fluctuations in July and August. Weather
conditions appear to be changing toward
a more favorable outlook for the crop.
Under these diverse influences the two
crops are rapidly widening. Our trade
believe the Liverpool manipulation is not
yet over, and that it will cause a further
advance in the summer months here, as
what cotton there is in the country is
pointing toward New Orleans as the high
est market. Trade and crop reports are
without influence to-day.
New York. June 29 Murphy & Cos. say:
Cotton market advices from Liverpool
to-day were fairly favorable. This mar
ket opened unchanged to 6 points up. Old
crop positions have ruled firm on shorts'
covering, but the new crops have not
sympathized, owing to local and Southern
selling, influenced by more favorable
weather predicted in the cotton belt. The
afternoon session opened w-ith the ad
vance on old crops well maintained. The
new crops are only slightly steadier. On
good buying by shorts and local sales the
market sold up and closed about the high
est point of the day.

STOCKS AND BONDS.
The Strong Tendency of the Market
Slightly Cheeked.
New Y r ork, June 29.—1 t took about flt.
teen minutes of trading efter the opening
of the Stock Exchange this morning
demonstrate the disinclination of stocks
to continue the advance which arouse!
the hopes of the bulls yesterday. to
The market started off with a great e :o4
of animation, and a semblance of strength,
Prices of Americans were up in London
but whether thi# symptom was the result
of operations by cable from this side, it
open to inference. At all events the aik
vance in prices seemed to be designed fot
the benefit of the shorts, who were am,
ious to cover after yesterday's rise. T,'
demand from this element was so libeui
ly fed that it made slight impression ot
prices, and after it was satisfied the mat.
ket became notably soft. The movemit|
afterwards was irregularly downward o
a very small volume of business. A gic* :
many brokers left the street, and th
market fell into a condition of lassitu.lj
that is so characteristic of the season thu
it is called midsummer dullness, evj
when it occurs in another season. Tlti
languid movement of prices during th
latter part of the day was largely gov.
erned by the fluctuations in the what
market, stocks hardening slightly with
the midday reaction in wheat, and sa;.
ging again when the price of wheat ra|.
lied. Sugar and some 'of the preferrH
siefl stocks gave varying evidence o(
strength. Otherwise there was no strik.
Ing feature in the market, and ihe clositii
showed very small net changes and irteg
uiar nnd uncertain fluctuations. i
The money market conttnued'surprislng
ly quiet up to the close, considering that
it is practically the lost day to comp>ti
preparations for the semi-annual disburw
ments of dividends and interest, whic!
are the largest in the history of the coun
try. Call money was slightly harder si
the opening, but the rate was not fra
from suspicion of manipulation in the in
terest of reaction in the stock market
It is expected that the banks will shot
a small net less in cash in to-qiorrowi
statement, the estimated receipts toon
the interior not being sufficient to offsn
the loss on sub-treasury operations.
The sale of withheld sterling bills du
ing the week has been accompanied bj
liquidation of loans which were secure
by the sterling bills as collateral. Unies
the demand for the semi-annual settle
ments has offset this loan contraction i
decrease in the loan item is therefon
probable.
Bonds were 1n better demand than
stocks and prices were higher. Total
sales, par value. $1,665,000.
