J took charge of the body, and buried
it near town late Sunday afternoon.
One arm was broken in two places,
a leg broken, shoulder broken, and
one side of her face was badly
i bruised where she must have struck
,a cross tie. It is supposed that she
was killed about 11:30 o'clock Sat1

that time, and she was seen on the
streets a short time before the arrival
of the train. She has no relatives

"Pardon me, Governor," pleaded
a poor convict who happened to
stand in the way of His Excellency
as he was looking over the few remaining
prisoners in the penitentiary,
trying to devise some excuse for
releasing them. "Certainly, my
friend," promptly replied the com|
plaisant Chief Executive and he hied
i him away to his office at the Capitol

affix thereon his signature.

Saturday "Judge" 0 S Baldwin
sent J T Bellflower to jail in default
on bond. There are two charges
against Bellflower, the most serious
of which is breaking into Dr W S
Lynch's drug store on May 31 and
stealing therefrom goods and money.
Bellflower is a white man and comes
from sound, honest stock, and his
condition is pitiable.

^The tobacco crop will be short.
4 Scarcity of plants and lack of rain
are the two causes of this falling
off. Some large growers will make
none,while others will get but little.
Nevertheless, careful estimates figure
it out that we will have about
two-thirds of a full crop. The prices
? ate confidently expected to be high,
so high that the total value of the
crop will probably be near the value
of an average crop.
The deficiency in yield of truck
has been fully compensated by the
excellent prices obtained. The conditions
which reduced the quantity
here had the same effect in competing
centers. In consequence one
hundred baskets have brought in as
much as a much greater number
have commanded heretofore. In

a visit to old friends.
Miss S R Lucas of Leesburg, Fla,
spent some days this week with her
niece, Mrs W L Bass, on Acline
avenue.
The tobacco men are busy getting
ready for the season, which will
open in a few more days. The several
warehouses have been renovated,
and wherever needed, repairs
will be made. All of the warehousemen,
except one. live here; so also
do most of the largest buyero. The
migratory members of the colony
are coming day by day, and within
a short time everything will be in
