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. NEW RAILROAD FOR GAINESVILLE.

Til,■ Colton Market Advanced Stendl ly. Showing Gain* on tl,o Leading Gruilcs—The I iiwarti Tendency ot Future* Continue*. AA it h tinny In fluence* to tilvc the Alarket a 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.

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. Fluctuation* in Future*. . New Y ork.

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. WEEKLY COTTON REPORTS.

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.
