A FLORIDA VENICE Bill Arp Raves Over the Settlement Known as Clear Water-Out on a Fishing Trip He Discovers That There Are Thirteen in the Party Yesterday we visited the North island, or Palmetto island, as it is called, and spent a happy day. There were thirteen in the party. We dident know this until we were out at sea. and it disturbed our tranquility a little-just a little. Phil osophy doesent drive away our supersti tions. This was the longest sail we have taken, and we carried enough lunch along to feed us a week, as we thought if any thing should Lappen to us like there did to Bobinson Crusoe we would not starve. It was a delightful sail of five miles, and Mr. Whitmore's little boat "Columbia" plowed the waves'eagerly and sometimes threw the pure salt water over us and made the children scream with delight. Mr. Whitmore, our Swedish sailor, said: "It vas werry healty-dis:zalt vater." In deed that is what gives this place its name andreputation-the coiftinousflow of pure salt water into the harbor from the nu merous passes between the island. It is always coming in and going out, and there is no stagnation. These island are long and narrow. On the west side they are fringed with a beautiful beach, just as far as the eye can reach, and the surf is. ever lashing the sandy shore, leaping and lapping and foaming, coming and going and moaning. The young folks brought their bathing suits along, and rejoiced in struggling with the white capped waves. Some fishermen have built a palmetto house nearby which is both a shelter and a hiding place. It is prettily thatched on top and on the sides withplam leaves, the stems of which are woven and- interlaced like the basket makers do it. All around are groves of palm trees whose beautiful umbrella tops shaded us from the sun. Beneath their shade we at' up everything we had brought. As 1 walked along the shell covered beach I saw a man-just a small speck of a man-a mile away, and I thought it must be Crusoe's man Friday; Soon I saw other specks move out from the palmettoes, and these seemed like the cannibals who were getting ready to coast a prisoner. But t heyallplunged into the foamy waters and Mr. Whitmore said it was a bathing party from Dun Eden. This whole' island is made of shells-disintegrated shells-and I should think would make good phosphate. Every gulf storm throws a new coat upon it, or takes away one. The fishermen get both profit and sport around these passes where the groupers and pompano and Spanish mackerel abound. It took us only half an hour to make the outward trip, but much longer to return, for it was sailing against the wind, and we had to tack and retack all the way. It was a day to be remembered, and all the thirteen were landed safe about sundown. Every day somebody goes out on one of these island excursions, for they are cheap-only.$1.50 for the whole party. There areno horses to feed or run away, no strain on anything. Indeed there is not a single private car ria-e in Clear Water; no driving around and leaving cards. If you can't walk you can sail qr row. It is all air and water. Spring seems fairly upon us now. The oleanders are in bloom and the odor of the yellow jasmine perfumes the air. Fruit-bearing tress are all in bloom. I saw an alligator pear tree in full blossom. It was eighteen inches in diameter. Its fruit is something between a banana and a muskmelon and is eaten with sait and pepper. Cabbages grow to twenty-five pounds in weight and tomatoes are large and colored to sprefection. Something is growing all the year round and yet na ture seems to have her seasons here as in higher latitudes. And now let me say to numerous corretpondents, who have asked a hundered questions, that I have no type 'writer and can only say that I have no in terest whatever directly or remotely in booming Clear Water. I am not a real estate agent. I haveno land tosell, but the more I travel and the longer I stay the more I am satisfied with what nature has done for this place. I have an: ear nast desire to own a winter residence here, where my wife anid others of the family can come and ba sk in Florida sunshine and breathe thes4i.t air of the gulf. It is possible to live as cheaply here as any where and a cottage of six rooms can be built for $1,000. There is a good bakery here, and with good bread and butter and fish and vegetables there is no lack of food. Uncle Dan McMullen has been living here fifty-two years and,.says it is cer tainly the healthiest region on the globe. I go to Apopka and Oakand and Kissi mee this week and then to Iverness and Crystal river and Brooksville, all cf which are said to be lovely. I am studying Florida without a book;but somehow I have no desire to be at the grand opening of Mr. Flagler's new hotel at Lake Worth. It would be a scene too bewildering for me and too depleting. Ilike such things at a distance. But I like the hospitable, un pretending towns, whiose hearts are warm and the people live in, close communmon. These are the people who fight our bat tles in war and respect law and order in times of peace and preserve the common wealth. These are the humble, content ed people to whom Burns and Pope and Goldsmith paid tribute and whose graves Gray immortalized jin his elegy. These people have their faults and their pre judices, but in time of trouble I would rather depend upon one of them than upon a score of pure-proud aristocrats. Bow thoughful they are of their children's morals. "Mr. McMullen," said I, "if it won't pay you to market these oranges why don't you make wine of them. I see it selling in town at 50 cents a quart and it is nearly as good as sherry." "Yes." said he, "I know it makes good wine, but there is a lot of grand-children growing up around me and I am afraid to take the responsibility. I am not a pi-ohibitionist, but I don't want to lead my own flesh and blood into tempation." He lives four miles from town and the LEA VES. That's what Sick Head ache does, when Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pel Slets are taken. These tiny, sug ar-coa te d, anti - bilious granules cure it completely. -They're the smallest, the easiest to take, and the most nzatural rem edy. No disturbance, no~ unpleasantness, no reaction afterward. One little Pellet at a dose regulates the whole system. Con stipation, Indigestion, .Bilious Attacks, Dizzi ness, and all derange ments of the liver, stomach and,. bowels are prevented, relieved, and permanently cured. They're the cheapest pills you can buy at any price, for they're guaran Ceedi to give satisfaction, or your .money is returned. You pay only for the gqood you get. TaE WBOG WE, with Catarrb, is to stop it with out curing it. - The right way is a proved one. It's with Doctor - . . Sage's Catarrh Remedy. It cures, perfectly and permanent ly, by its mild, eool~g,claning an~d healing es the worst cases of I, ground beneath his beautiful grove was yellow with the golden fruit. Late returns from the sale of common oranges have discourged the owners from gathering and boxing and hauling to town and taking their chances with the commission merchant. The 6,000,000 boxes that a month ago were supposed to bring re present $6,000,000 of profit will hardly reach the half of it. And yet everybody; wants a grove and everybody who lives here or winters here ought to have small one for home ornament and house use. I have never ceased to admire the exquisite beauty of an orange tree in blossom or in fruit, and if I get a home here I will have a dozen bearing trees transplanted to my lot. What is Florida for but to enjoy? This delictious climate was given it by a kind providence to restore the invalids of more northen latitudes. How many peo ple have I asked"what brought you here?" and the almost invariable answer is, "I was suffering from lung trouble or asthma or catarrh and I am cured." or "My fath er or my mother was suffering and moved here." Certain it is that I hzvo improved and our little grand-child is now a picture of rosy health. To save one precious life is worth more that the travel and expense of getting here. But how about the summers? I don't know from experence, but our Cartersville J friends who have lived here for several years smile at the idea of the summers being any more oppressive than in upper Georgia. Mr. Anspaugh and his wife both say that the cooling breeze from the gulf never fails them day or night, and I will believe anything they tell .me. Mr. An spaugh is a plasterer by trade and has held more mortar over his rhoulder than any man in Florida. He is a horny-handed son of toil and those are the men who have no talent for lying or exaggeration. When I want the truth without dissimu lation I inauire of Lewis Anspaugh. Work is dull now and so he and his ggod wife are taking in boarders. The have I fourteen in all and every one says he is content. My respect for the toilers in creases with age. Longfellow's most beautiful poem is his tribute to the vil lage blacksmith. But still there comes a time when we want more money and less work. As we near our three score years and ten and limbs get stiff and the blood gets thin and cold we feel like we have fit enough as old H man Candler said to Dr. Miller after the first battle of Manassas. The old man was!overseventy, buthe fought all day like a lion. That night he was nearly dead and sont for the doctor. "Give me a dis. charge, doctor, for I have fit enough." en W th A WONDERFUL STAR. th: You Must Look Quick You Would See It gr in the Sunset Sky. dif ~~~ vil [New York Sun.] l Low in the west, half hidden in the be evening twilight, there may be seen just now a star that 300 years ago earned for itself the name of "Mira," the Wonderful. ce And its behavior at present seems to jus- iIy fify its name. It is in the constellation an of the Whale, and is known to astrono mers as Omicron Ceti. It is only visible n now for a brief period after sundown, i when it may be been hanging just above na the verge of the horizon, under Jupiter tb and the Pleiades. Its red color distin guishes it. although higher up there is iDI another reddish star in the same constel- gel lation. Last winter the spot which this col star occupies was absolutely vacant to the sti naked eye. But a telescope showed that a faint star was glimmering there. Since W then that star has blazed up a thousand- mi fold in brightness! Now it shines with a an ruddy hue, suggestive of a vast and fiere t conflagration, in a few weeks, probably, it will have faded, but in. the mean .time WE the progress of the seasons will have its buried it in the sun's rays, and when it m< emerges in the east next summer no eye will be able to see it again without tls copic aid. For a few days yet "the Mar- tO vel of the Whale" may be discerned 'be- "8 tween 7 and 7,30 o'clock in the evening. thi An opera glass may be needed to show it clearly in the bright twilight. What renders this wonderful variable mi star particularly interesting .at present is ces the facttha it is now brighter than it 2 usually is at its maximum, and that the se period of maximum his been delayed for ho: several weeks. According to the calcu lations of the astronomers, it should have pei been an its brightest on Feb.17. But it wk has continued to grow more briliant since dir that time, until it has become several times as bright as it was them. e Yet these facts would possess but a sall1 far degree of interest outsidethe observatories Ui if we did not know something of the di- dif mension of the star Mira and of the sig iiificance of the changes which we behold pei in it. Mira is asun, and when it blazes It up, as it is now doing, it must suddenly un pour forth a quantity of heat that if con- p1 centrated upon the earth at close quartersri would melt it and turn it into ahot cloud,.i When Mira is faintest it is of less than bel the ninth magnitude; when brightest it wa has been known to equal a star of the first the magnitude. That happened in 1779, when it was as briliant as Aldebaran. At such a time it emits 2000 times as much light jin as it does when at a minimum;2,000 times| if 1 as much heat, too, probably. Now when for it is near- the third magnitude it is 300h times as bright as it was two or three ho months ago. The complete cycle of change th< that this wonderful sun runs through ma averages about eleven months. But for cit< more than two-thirds of that period it re mains faint and invisible to the naked eye trU Its brightening begins suddenly, and it | rc usually gains light faster than it subse- stri quently fades. As it brightens, the blood n color characteristic of its light when at a minimum changes to an orange red. Its ~ sr*ctrum then reveals the tremendous .pit i.ature of the change that Mira is under- of going; it becomes filled with vivid lines S which indicate that the vaporous envelope S of the star has caught lire, so to speak, en and is burning with inconceivable inten sity, hydrogen in particular flming high ab4 above the other elements. According to al Mr. Lockyer's hypothesis these phenc I' mnena are produced by the repeated colli- on sions of swarms of meteors, revolving tet around one another in elliptical orbits. Du But a more probable view of the matterth would seemito be that Mira is an expir-. ing sun, surrounded with a partially JE cooled envelope of metallic vapors whose wa absorption almost extinguishes its light th< except, at intervals, when tbere comes an b outbreak of the bent up forces within, or a heat eruption, which bursts the shell bl< and fires the surrounding gases to a daz thb zling incandescence. so If we knew jaist how far away Mira is. we could tell how it compares in size with eit our sun. We do know, however, that it is mi probably a larger sun than ours. We may ho fairly assume that its parallax is not sai more than one-third of a second, whichb would make its distance from the earth h over 550,000 times greater than the dis- Po tance of the sun. If it really isas far off an as that, then, when it flames with the ofi brightness of a first magnitude star, it t must be pouring out eight times as much .h light as the sun gives forth. But when w' it is at its minimum its light can be onlyl in; one two-hundred-and-fiftieth of the sun's y light. And in either case the intensity of h its heat probably accords with that of its h light. th Surely we cannot suppose that there it are inhabited worlds revolving around such a sun as that. But worlds may be there that were once inhabited. Did any at prophet forewarn them of a time when I I their day-making sun would become a hi destroying furnace, and their elements would dissolve with fervent heat?-Gar th * - dc T wo to Be Looked Out For.. m [Brooklyn Life.i at He (nervously)-Do you think it on right for us to be here alone with a n ebaperoni? .foi She-Oh, yes.

Davis wascaptured. by he should have been captured in it lonely land, supposing, of course, it he wanted to get away, surpasses derstanding. I haye ridden over the )und and have visited that little, imal, out-of-the-way town of Irwin le,.Ga., which, like Waterloo, name s before, will now be ever remem red. .fter leaving South Carolina the npany, consisting of Davis, his fam several members of his cabinet and escort of soldiery, crossed the Savan b river near the old town of Wash .ton-by the way, the first town med for the father of his country in 3 United States. There, apprehend. ! the approach of federal cavalry, a eral break-up took place. Davis itinued his way toward the south, lI incumbered by a considerable go-train, until he crossed the Oc lgee river at Poor Robin Spring, d camped at Asheville. Thence he rted by the early dawn on the ary journey through the sol des of the "wiregrass," made still, tre solitary by the war that had de pulated G4orgia of all the men able bear a musket as well as the boys. ixteen to 60" was the.last decree of Sconscript act, and only pale-faced men and half-famished children re ined to gaze in wonder at the pro sion. fter the breaking-up of the cabinet, neral Breckinridge mounted his 's and struck out for the Floridian insula.

Vorn out he rode up to a log cabin the dusk of the evening, and asked e could get shelter and refreshment himself and horse, and directions ' to reach Charlotte's harbor. Al ugh dressed in citizen's clothes, his ners and striking physique ex d the curiosity of tbe squatter. But e to the instincts of that peculiar e, tbe latter agreed to give the tger food and shelter, and asked questions. stayed a day and nikght at that hos ble hut soon after, was the recipient many kindnesses from the squatter. Id he, in speaking of the night he ertained General Breckinridge: 'I tell you, I was mighty suspicious )ut that feller, whether he was a 2k or a confed, but I knew he was or .the other. You see, I had stole iggers from old man Norman Mc ffie over at Pensacola, and had run m down to Tampa and sold them t about the breaking out of the r. I sold them for gold, several usand dollars done up in buckskin s, regular old Spanish gold in dou ons, and had the cash buried under corner of the smoke house, for fear ne of the soldiers might find -it, her running after confeds or run ig away from the yankees. You see w 'aimple I live now, I lived the ne way then; plenty of beef, venison, g meat, milk, butter, homniny and atoes. Sometimes we had bear meat, d sometimes we had corn bread, not en, though, because the mill was irty miles off and we never fooled tb bears unless they got to pester g our hogs. As for the biscuits, my ung ones never saw one, and they'd e put a coal of fire on one just as ey'd have done to a terrapin if found in the road. 'Well, that fellow looked so queer d suspicious that I felt skittish, but ave him the best we had and- turned horse in the pea patch to help him (f. We sat and talked awhile, but saw he was tired, so I showed him e bed, and me and my wife laid swa on a pallet on the floor. The a I thought of that man the more felt uneasy about my money. So, er all were sound asleep I slipped t behind the smok'e-house to get it, t even stopping to put on my clothes fear as being watched.

The capers of the borse awoke his, master, and out he came, a pistol in each hand. I got right down on my knees and told him he might tage my money, but for the sake of my family I prayed him to spare my life. '"Why, you numbskull, I don't want your money or your life. Do you not guess who I am?"' "'I am General Breckinridge, of the Confederate cabinet, and all I desired was a little rest. Now tell the most direct road to Charlotte's Harbor and I will pay my bill and get out.' "'You don't owe me a cent, general,' said I, trembling like a leaf, 'but for God's sake don't tell about my money if you are caught.' "I then caught his horse, saddled him, filled up his saddle bags with beef and potatoes, showed him the road, and he was gone half an hour before I realized the fact that I had harbored a fugitive and at the same time given refuge to one of the leaders of the con federacy."

The same Act exempts first grade 'teachers of ten years experience from further examination, provided they continue in active service. A pplicants ,for grades should come early.
