CAMPBELL. .~~7 t^^N^^ pit-~d p 'err' r- i < - ~e~~jr~s~,J~ mitted to the bundesrath authorizing the acceptance of the invitation to take part m the Chicago fair. The bill pro- vides for the appointment of an imperial commissioner ,and the granting of a credit for the effective organization of the German department. The preamble accompanying the bill refers to the active commercial intercourse between Ger- many and the United States, and to the fact that the invitation has already been accepted by England, France and Spain. The miners' strikes are attaining form- idable proportions around Bochem. Most of the pits are closed. The strikers in the Essen district exceed 15,000. Arbi- trary measures adopted by the employ- ers, and .the absence of any attempts at noncilfhtion enrage the ;6tn,..numbe3s of whom are acting independently of the advice of- the leaders of the movement, who are opposed to a general strike.- ADVISED AGAINST IT. ' The SocialiSt organ, the Voreiarts, cautions them to pause. It declares that the moment is not opportune for a whole- sale strike and that- such sa movement will end, in disastrous defeat and the loss of existing privileges. Despite friendly exhortions the temper of the, men foreshadows universal de fiance of employers. The May day celebrations are likely to result in a fiasco. Socialists disagree to the programme. The parli imentary sec- tion want to postpone the demonstra- tions until May 5 The extremists urge that Sunday demonstrations would be futile. There inust, according to his section, be a general absentation from work on the first. The emperor has ordered the suppres- sion of street manifestations, Troops will be kept in readiness in their bar- racks, though it is not expected that they will be required. .An imperial decree has been issued forbidding racing on Sundays and ad vising the local authorities to permit races to be held only on working days as the best method of hindering working- men from attending them.

THE SHIP WAS.SUNK And Two Hunared of Her Crew Were Killed. 1NIQUE, CHILI (vria Galveston), April 27.-The war ship Blanco Encalado, One of the vessels taken possession of by the rebels at the breaking out of the insurrection, was sunk April 13 in Caldero bay fly a' torpedo fired by the new gunboat, Admiral Lynch. Two hundred persons, comprising half her crew, were killed. The Congress party is now in possession of Caldera and Carrizo. Butchered Three Wives. SAVANNAH,. April 30.-It now ap- pears that the negro now in jail here for'wife murder, Albert Grant, alias Kitchen, has put three wives into their graves instead of two. In addition to the two whose throats he cut here, he pounded one over the head with an iron kettle in a house also in this city early in 1889, and injured her so badly that she died in a couple of days. As there is conclusive evidence against him in each case, there is little fear that he will escape hanging. JIf the negroes had their way he would be dead already, as there is an ntensely bitter feeling against the man, who will go on record as one of then.most cold-blooded villains Georgia f- has ever known.

On Monday evening last John Seller a young Swiss who has been. working for the Okeechobee Company for some time, borrowed a sailboat from Capt. Pitts to go over to Steer Beach. He made the' trip all right and stayed there over night, starting on his return Tuesday morning, with the wind a lit- tle east of northeast and blowing quite a gale. Having neglected to put down the center-board, he was drifted about by the wind and had to tack almost all over to get anywhere. At one time he was seen to run on Paradise Island and had to eiet out in shallow water to push his boat off. At another time he was seen doing the same thing on the west shore, near Butler's house. He was seen tacking back and forth be- tween the west side pf Paradise Island and the mainland until after dinner Tuesday, when he was lost sight of, his friends supposing that he had giv- en up his efforts and gone to Paradise or Summerlin Islands to wait till the gale was over. Not coming in in the morning, parties started to look him up, when they found the rudder to Capt. Pitt's boat, Later in the daysa truck" grower residing on Summerlin Island, while coming to town with a b6at-load of -vegetables, discovered a sail floating on the water between Par- adise Island and the mouth of Shingle Creek, about half a mile from the isl- and. Investigation showed that the boat had filled and sunk in fourteen or fifteen feet of water, the mast had un-, shipped and it and the sail floated on top, but still held tothe boat by ropes, The boat had filled and sunk without A Safe Remedy. When a person is sick they wish more than aught else a reitorattfn of health. They are willing to take even nauseous medicine in order to get well. With many, however, a first consideration is whether the medicine is perfectly safe. Will it or will it not leave any eyil after- effects? Now there is one remedy kn oIwn to be certainly safe. It is a S anical discovery, and it is called ,Hot~alhiB16od Balm. or B B B. It will not harm the most delicate constitution, nor will a discontinuance cause a crav- ing for its further use. It is a sure anti- dote for poison in the blood. The blood becomes poisoned in various ways.: Con- stipation, urinary difficulties and other causes of effete matter remaining in the system will cause blood impurity, or blood poison, as many call it. Symp- toms of bloc d poison should not be neg- lected. B B B should be taken at once. It will cure promptly, and it is not bad to take, nor will it leave any evil after effects. J, D. Watkins, Blakely, Ga., writes: "Old sores covered my entire person and itched intensely night and day. For several months I could not work at all I commenced the use of Botanic Blood Balm and began to grow better the first week and am now sound and well, free from sores and itching and at work again." apr20-6t-d&w For old sores, skin eruptions, pim ples, ulcers and syphilis use only P.

Pitts and sev- eral other articles were still in the boat. The steamer Disston has been laid up on account of low water ; and yet there are parties who claim that the Drainage Co. is accomplishing nothing. Geo. Bossert, of Philadelphia, who came here for the benefit of his health, and- has been stopping for some time with D. F. Hirtzel, across the lake, died last Sunday, aged about 25 years. The change seemed beneficial at first, but the disease had secured too firm a hold of its victim for our climate to work a cure. The remains were sent home Monday night in charge of his brother-in-law. On Tuesday Wmin. Ross, overseer of Sunshine plantation, brought us in a sample of Irish potatoeoe has been raising and supplying our home mar- ket. They were surely a fine selection averaging about three by five inches in diameter. From one bushel of seed they marketed five barrels of fine po tatoes, which brought them $5 per barrel. This shows what can be done by men who understand raising Irish potatoes. Oviedo Chronicle. The board of trustees of Foster Chape have decided to give out the contract for the painting of the exterior of the church edifice, and probably touching r up some of the interior work also. General Manager J. H. Abbott, of the East Coast- & Atlantic Railway, has made a very liberal offer to our citizens He has agreed to build that portion ol the contemplated eilewalk on Bay street, running from the E. C. & A. de pot to the Cushing House, provided the sidewalk is put down on the east side of the street. The distance is about on hundred yards and will relieve our citi zens of about $30 or $40 of the work This is a voluntary offer on the part ol the railroad company and shows that they have the welfare of our town at heart. Such a policy will certainly be more appreciated than the one usually adopted by corporations to grind every cent out of the public that they can. It is well for the people to remember who r their friends are. This will make you smile. Oranges in the Alexander grove on the lower grounds were frozen last January, and became worthless for shipping, as the juice cells were destroyed and the juice left the fruit. Lately these same oran ges have been forming new cells again and filling with juice. We have sam. pled the oranges and testify that the fruit that was worthless on these trees a few weeks ago, is now juicy and pal- atable, and -many others are ready to bear us out in this statement. A correspondent writing to the Cocos Public Spirit strikes the keynote for Oviedo when he says: "Oviedo has low- er rates than any other point in South Florida, and is the only locality where the two great railway systems, Plant and F. C. & P.,and the St. Johns steam- ers meet in direct competition." At a me ting of the stockholders ofl the Oviedo, Lake Charm & Lake Jessup Railway held last Saturday morning, it was resolved to turn over the stock to the Lake Jessup, Indian River & Atlan- tic Co., provided certain provisions were complied with, and these provisions Mr. J. Emmett Brown, the general manager of the latter company has agreed to. It appears to be the common opinion that Oviedo is on the eve of the most prosperous wave that she has ever ex- perienced. All signs point this way. The building of the proposed new roads is bound to make this an important cen- ter, and already there is talk of a bank, new hotels, and other enterprises that are not quite ripe enough to be made public. Tavar'es Herald. The Lake County Normal School opened at Eustis last week with Prof. J. C. Compton, superintendent of pub lic instruction, as principal and Prof. Noble Harter and Mrs. Fields as assis- tants. We understand there are about fifty pupils in attendance. SIn assuming the local and business management of the Herald, I must beg the indulgence of its patrons for 6any lack of local interest it may possess for a short time. It will require better ac- quaintance with the field of labor, and no small a nount of skirmishing to serve the readers as ably as has the re- tiring lo-al. Material changes and im- provements in the paper are contempla- ted, and I trust that every friend of Tavares will bear in mind that he can help the place in no more effective man- ner than by giving the Herald the finan- cial and moral support needed to make it, as ft should be, an atfle representa- tive of the interests of Tavares and of Lake county. W. S. SMITH. Must, Have Been Insane. NEW ORLEANS, April 30.-Reeves Lewis, secretary of the New Orleans Railroad, and one of the most popular young men in town, committed suicide by blowing out hii brains. He sent a letter to the president of the company Thursday announcing that he would not go down to the office yesterday and telling him what should be done. His death was instantaneous. Lewis has been in poor health for some two months, suffering from insomnia. When an examination was made ofl his room the coroner was greatly sur- prised to find a box containing $10,000 in one corner of it, which could not be accounted for. The family of the sui- cide could not imagine how he Itad so much money, as he was supposed to be In very moderate circumstances. The money was discovered last night to be- Ong to the city railroad. The presi' dent of the company thinks that Lewi took the money while temporarily in sane, as he seems to have made no ef- fort to misapply it. The oJicbrs in pne of the exploded get- rich-quick schemes have begun denying money matters. It's very odd and a seeming contradiction in anatomy, but the only way to open some people's eyes is to shut'them up. FLORIDA STATE NEWS.

Secretary Foster Preparing to Meet the Enormous Hauls Following Tom Reed's S million Dollar Congress. , WASHINGTON, Apr. 30.-Secretar, Fos- ter to-day issued the following circular discontinuing the redemption of 44 per Scent. bonds: "With a view of reserving the residue of 41 per cent.loan for adjustment within Sthe fiscal year, which begins on July 1 t next public notice is hereby given that 8 the redemption of bonds of that loan will be discontinued for the present, and the f circular of October 9, 1890,.under which Such redemptions have been made, is hereby rescinded. "Due public notice will hereafter be Given of the action of the department s with respect to said 44 per cent bonds." S The action taken to-day by Secretary - Foster in discontinuing the redemption r of the 41 per cent. bonds is believed to Sbe the first of a series of measures in- ended to put the treasury in a condi tion to meet the heavy obligations which are expected to fall due before congress 1 reassembles. t These 4J per cent. bonds do not ma- e ture until hext September, and there is Really no obligation expressed or implied upon the government to redeem them e before that date; butin view of the large s accumulation of money in the treasury . during recent years the department had f sought to use some of it by offering tc S-purchase such bonds as might be offered Sat fair prices in advance of their matur- e ity. To-day $29,500 were redeemed, and f the total amount of 4J per cent. bonds e redeemed, or rather purchased, since last - October, is $15,976,100. - S THE AMOUNT OUTSTANDING,. f On the first of the present month.$53, t .854,250 of these last bonds were out- t standing. The national banks hold over $30,000,000 of them. If an emergency Should arise there is small doubt in the Mind of Secretary Foster that the banks t would be entirely swilling to continue their holding at a low rate of interest, and they would be prompted to adopt This course rather than oblige the treas- r ury to call inthe money in the author- Sized depositories. S By purchasing 41 per cent. bonds un- Sder its circular terms the treasury has . saved the payment of much interest and , it is entirely possible that the redemp- Stion will begin again if the financial con- ) edition should warrant it. The terms of 3 to-day's circular itself seems to indicate . such a purpose and expectation on the part of the department and it may be noticed that the reason assigned for the discontinuance of the redemption by the circular is with a view to reserving the r residue of the loan for adjustmf nt with-r Sin the fiscal year ending a little over two months hence. SMOT BY SOLDIERS. A Queer Lynclhing out in Washington. WALLA WALLA, W ASH., April 30.--D. f J. Hunt, who slew Private Miller Wed- nesday nighk, was lynched by soldiers . from the garrison in the court house yard with sixteen bullets, four lvhich entered his head. Early in the evening Sheriff- McFar. land received intelligence that an at- Stempt wouldbe made to lynch Hunt, and ih company with Prosecuting At- torney Plandord, repaired to the garri- son and told Colonel Compton what they feared and asked him to assist them. This he promised to do by having check rolls called after taps. The sheriff returned and engaged an extra number of guards, but all had not arrived, when a crowd of probably fif- ty soldiers appeared and demanded that the officers open the doors of the jail. When the demand was refused the sol- diers began ork on the doors with ham- mers and clisels. Finding this slow work they threatened the use of dyna- mite. Further resistance then being useless the doors were opened, and twen ty or thirty cocked revolvers were lev eled at the heads of all inside and keys - to the cells Were demanded. These were given them, and when Hunt's cell was a lown they quickly took him out to the court house yard and shot him. The excitement was intense and a crowd of 2,000 people surged about the street in front of the jail until after mid- might. Immediately after the shooting the soldiers went to their quarters and it will be difficult to tell who were in the shoot- ing, though many were not masked. The soldiers actually took charge of the town and would allow no one to pass along the streets in the vicinity of the jail. They compelled the merchants to put out their lights. HunI, who was a gambler, met Miller last Wednesday night in a saloon. -The two began drinking and soon became in- volved in a quarrel. Hunt drew his re- volver and fatally shot the soldier.
