Butlers Prisoner of War go south to live and resolved to make I New Orleans our home. The first year of toy life was comparatively quiet and we had begun to feel sate when General Butler and the north- ern troops occupied New Orleans. Even the third generation has heard of his reign of terror. I not only kept within doors but compelled my children and servants to do likewise. One day the funeral of a northern soldier was passing the house and" the music or tie band attracted the attention of my children who ran to the window and entered the second balcony clapping their hands the while.

It was the music that pleated them and they meant to give no' offense General Butler heard of this and also of the tact that I had helped to raise- money for the widow of a confederate soldier. Several days after that I was In my sitting room with my children when there was a furious ringing of the front door bell. A union officer rushed in and thrust a paper into soy hand and I read to my amazement and terror Bring me Mrs. Philips. Ben F.

Butler. Then I realized that I had been arrested again. I requested that my husband be sent for and this the soldier who was a perfect gentleman readily consented to. My husband was pale and excited demanding to know what I had done. I did not know the charge.

therefore could not answer Non. The report was quickly circulated that I had been arrested and as we trudged to the custom house the windows of every dwelling were filled with men and women staring at us. When we finally reached General Butlers I was conducted through the long stone hall and finally halted before a green baize door. Then my guard said Your hu band cannot accompany you madam' Then I answered I will not go In. He Is my natural and lawful protector and I will not enter without him.

The officer Insisted. And Insisted. And Insisted again. And still again. But I was not to be conquered this time I only shook my head.

He became too- persistent In his Insistence and I became desperate. I sat right down on that floor Turk fashion with my feet under me and then I declared Now I will recognize but two powers moral or physical force. If ou will al low my husband to enter I will go with you If not why then you will have to tie a rope around me and drag me in. The men looked astounded. Their orders were to bring Mrs.

Phillips alone. They dared not disobey. But I was making them face a very difficult proposition. One of the offlcerrf the bravest in the crowd. approached the general and explained the circumstances.

Mrs. Phillips still has and exhibited for our benefit a copy of The London Rev lew which describes th onp Th ra nrt says that the general frowned cocked one eye a little- higher thought tar a few minutes and then said Lets see what the moral force can do. The report continued Mrs Philip entered the room as calm as a summer sea. So cool was she that It was re freshiog to sit in her shade on that sweltering July morning She fanned herself with as much se as if she were In her drawing room at Washington. Geenral Butler said Mrs Phillips you are accused of laughing and rejoicing over the death of a brave honest and honorable Vrnerlcan soldier.

Then as if his rage were boiling' over he continued. I do not call you a common vulgar woman but I do caj you an uncommonly vulgar woman. Mr. Phillips became very excited but Mrs. Phillips was equal to the joectulon.

Gracefully stepping forward she said to General Butler Tour language Is not that of a gentleman. sir but that is not to expected. You ask me why I laughed It I laughed at all it was because I felt like it. Calmly and fearlessly she made the remark arid gazed at Butter as she said It. Xte general became furious.

It was mote than his dignity could stand. so he ordered her to be confined on Ship island for two years. But Mrs. Phillips was not yet conquered. While the thUSt of the future must hays appalled her gh answered with a smile of scorn and defiance I thank you while you a a sweltering.

in rfew Orleans I shall enjoy th sea breezes. The story of her suffering on Ship Island la a terrible one. She was Imprisoned there for five months during which tim sb developed an aggravated case of brain fever. Mono in her little SilO cell the only woman on the Island she tossed In raving delirium. Finally th army Burgeon feellwr that this.

wa a case of Injustice sBS ft disgrace against man reported the case to Washington and Secretary Stanton ordered her Immediate General Butler was compelled to grant her discharge. jirs Phillips tells many stories of the chivalry of the soldiers of the union army at that time. Some of. the officers were stationed' Ship Island And their. wires wamon tier Ao friends but to this day she has not forgiven General Butler.

After she was restored to her liberty he became a regular courier In the in terests of the confederate army. carrying messages from Lee to other generals in the army and was the only woman who had authority to carry verbal orders. Even to this day Mrs Phillips Is a good horse woman. Laughingly site tells the younger that the girls of to day cannot It a saddle In my girlhood I sonjptimes rode as much us thirty-five miles its one day. Mrs.

Suddenly she turned at a true right angle put her nose to the turf challenged not loudly but with exultant fierceness and ran away due north. Before she was halt across the acre pasture the pack. came after in full cry with men and horses as eager at their heels The men whooped and shouted till the world was full of noise. The horses laid ears flat against the neck. snorted open-mouthed tote along topped the first fence like birds and whinnied satls- trctlon as they struck firmer earth lit the open woods be ond.

As the hunt swept across the mill road halt a dozen men galloped down it rose In their stirrups and gave a keen exult- ant yell. TM leader of them was motkit- ed upon a stallion black as midnight and evidently of hunting strain. As he reared and fought for his head wiolekering to the dog. music. Tobe Martin said to March God That plots thickening.

Dab- Iley Sands is here on Ilderim. That natal's Peyton Ashe Is here also that he has no ghost of a dhance to get away. Its a cursed shame. I lay Dbney wants to come with us as bad asIlder im every bit Range said as they came to the Epperson fence. a ramp- of over- I grown briers five yards across.

The place i had been tenantless for years. All its wet breadths were yellow with tall sedge. Once inside the fox doubled but the pack was too close upon him. AU he could do was to veer sharply west. I lay we non see nenner ivamiucicy ner Brer For ef atnt headed oft.

He's making right straight for' the bluffs at DoUns mitt. the man next Tobe Martin shouted very loudly. Tobe scowled back at him. "Hadn't you better go tell the judge You know he never went fox chasm' before. Almost the same miouth the judge beckoned Ranee to him unslung his horn and tossed It to the young fellow saying Keep the dogs straight on unless I halloo.

If I do blow twice and come as hard as you can ride. Let me go Ranse entreated. The judge shook his head srnilng. He knew but would not say it that Claymore alone could make. the three miles at a dead run yet keep In the hunt.

He chir. roped softly Claymores stride lengthened. He circled the park took the north fence With a shimmering leap tore across ragged grassland topped the outer fence. low and trotting then went down hill along the mill road at a peril- ous pace. The hill steep and full of.

red guUes led down to a clear valley miles long. Over against beyond the creek the bluffs rose gray and craggy. if one the fox gained he. was safe- from man or hound. Now the valley.

was lull of low winter sunshine. The clouds had drifted far to the north there was al most a touch of spring in the air The judge sniffed it gratefully. On one band new fallows gave out a fine earthly fra grance upon the other cropped meadows lay steaming and dank with tears of mist. A reddish brown something tow and swift as a flying shadow stole- almost indistinguishable across- the wet. grass.

At sight of it the judge gave a loud halloo. Claymore wheeled in his. tracks took the lane fence offhand and broke into a stretching gallop. He beard his master beard answering ballooa un3er- I voiced by the thin nlgh singing of the born. The dogs running for life gave but now and then a yelp.

The judge smiled and nodded. That is Beauty. Now Sweetlips now. Venus and the puppy Rlngrosi with her Well done. i lad.

The fox doubled sharply and broke for cover but pot the cover of the sloping woodland. Instead he- kept skittering 14n and out of the hedgerow at the foot 1 of it. Presently at the spot whets deep hollow made In from the flat woods be slipped through the lance and ran du south into tha teeth of his pursuers. The Judge kaew what that the ne beast would double again wttbia a hundred yards- with a louder halloo he sent Claymore over the fence and dashed up thehollow The sides of It though wooded were free' of tangle but down the le rank hazel and sumnanhi and alder made a wail of matted- stems. A.

dead tree had fallen and. crushed the wall. lb was the blindest gap but the judge set Claymore at It. Back I will not be taken silver. a man said rising up In the tangle to seize Claymores rein.

At the word the judge grew- Very- white. Ht. began to see inside the stem wall a sort of sylvan cave. hiding a jaded splashed horse and a man whose hand gripped a revolver. It was a white hand white and soft.

with a curious red seal ring upon the little finger. There was no need of the ring though the judge knew it well. Peyton Ashe the younger had his mother's voice. Do you- know meT" the judge asked. The man gave a- little cry.

You are Judge Clalborue he said his voice breaking. You were coming to me the judge Peyton Ashe nodded Yes but that brute Sands kept too close. He is close now. the judge said. I know It Ashe returned.

Go to him please. Tell hint its life or death. He he may keep from getting- away but it I file I will take him with me. You lust choose some. other.

Mother seemed to think she bade me come to vou with this" holding out a little trembling scrawl. As he spoke he stepped out of covert. He was tall and slight with a worn imperious face and hair thickly silvered at the temples. Forty years lay between him and the moo he faced yet to the. casual glance there ft ere hardly so many months.

He looked down and said with a sort of odd embarrassment Its a shame to mix you up In this affair but there is nothing else If I am to. get away. You could never conv ince a jury that one had to. shoot- a fellow who refused you the satisfaction of a gentleman. Noyou could never do It.

the judge- sold recoiling a little. He was the soul of honor anti justice no less than of mercy. This man. guilty and Imp tf nt revolted him. And yet and yet the man was Janet's son.

As you loved me. save my sort" Janet had written. He knew her well enough to comprehend that' In the stress of that plea fate avenged even his wrpngs. had no wish for vengeance. She had tricked him cheated him spoiled his life.

Now. in her extremity she turned to him for succor. Cold beads stood upon his brow. lie trembled and bowed his head. Suddenly less than half a mile away.

My fine gentleman we have got a word to ay. Cry on Ihe dogs' Hanse cry for all that's-In cur With the crying right ahead Ilderim can catch Claymore. If If he has harmed one hair or the judges head don't you name state tines. Tobe Martin said. lAs I've always reckoned.

Judge Lynch owns pretty much the merest ghcst of air. A fine rain felt straight down the footing became miry. One by one dogs and eldetly men dropped cut. Still Claymore led the hunt wo fields behind the pack and one in front of Ilderim who was far ahead of the rest. It war' la vain for any to try and stay with him.

The black came of a famous racing strain and was wild to overtake the flying leader. It we miss well at least be doln' our best. Sands said between his teeth as the chase swept into the state-line road a broad. red thoroughfare marklne the boundary. lie gripped hits pistol Clay mores rider would certainly dash away northward.

It amazed hint that the man held his course straight after the hounds. They were running almost on view never stooping to pick up the scent. But the pace was The best dogs ever whelped are for a red fox with the wind at his bade and rain enough to freshen his parched tongue. This fox was unlucky. From a near tam house three couple.

of fre hounds broke and joined the pack. Instantly lie ran due north hurrying scurrying in deadly fear of these new throated enemies. Claymore 100 yards ahead almost trod on the hounds as they wheel ed Tb txiri favored Uderlrn. When they were again in stride he was almost abreast of the brown But strain as he might he could corns- no nearer. Mile on mile they raced possessed as were their riders by the mad- ness of the chase.

The fresh hounds oculd not head them could not even do more than keep up with their kennel Alzrcst half. mile the fox- doubted dipping now into one.

He was near his last field the riders knew it by- the Joyous fleronesa of the dogs in a very little while they would seize and rend him.

Peoember Jgpe- cfaL The state pardoning board of Plot- Ida is at present and for some Urns past has been the object of two lines of criticism diametrically opposed to each other. Attorneys.

and' friends of convicts who apply. for pardons oh commutation of sentence are complaining that It. is next I to. impossible to secure favorable. action from the present board.

while on the other hand. some prominent newspapers I and a number of citizens severely itritI hdte the board for its alleged liberal use of the pardoning power which. it. claimed by these critics. tends to defeat the' ends of justice and the judgments of the courts.

A study of the records and of the- rules and principles which govern the board In Its consideration of- each case. presented will turnfSo1 convincing evidence that the preoelct pardoning board been extremely careful and onservatlY bout recommend ng the governor to pardon or commute the sentences of. on petitioners The hoard under a consUtu tional amendment adopted In 1898 consists of Governor Bloxham. Secretary of State' Crawford Attorney General Lamar. Ccmptrollir Raynolds wad Commissioner of Agriculture Wontbwell.

Prior to 1896 the board consisted of the governor. the attorney general and the three justices of the supreme court. The last official report. and later records show that the number of pardons end of commutations recommended by the present board and granted by Got- ernor Blcxh41m have been. both fewer absolutely and greatly smaller In proportion to the number of convicts than were recommended by the old board and granted by Governor MltrhelL At the same time.

the number of convicts in the penltentjary has Increased at least one hundred. Aside from the tact of comparison which points strongly to conservatism by the present board the board has prescribed certain regulations which it re quires to be rlgdly observed in nil par. don applications. A complete record or the court proceedings and a statement of the evidence and a statement of the evidence In the case must be Slid with the board and there is a general rule that no pardon or commutation will be granted unless the trial judge or the state attorney. who prosecuted the cue join In the petition ttlerelor.

Members of the board say that it la conceivable that an applcatlon might be presented which would have so much merit as to receive their favorable consideration without being approved by either the trial judge or too prosecuting attorney but none of them cm recall any such case during the last tour years. The members of the board bell ve that. persons who criticize them for being top free In the exercise of clemency do so through ignorance of the facts that such TIons take notice of occasional pardons and commutations but fall to consider that a tenfold greater number of applications ere refused than are granted. The widely lSCUIied sod hotly contested litigation between the Jacksonville. Terminal Company and the Atlantic Valdosta and Western Railway Company which has attracted so mush attention for more than a year past because some of the most important powers sought to be conferred on the state railroad commission were involved- In the case has been finally settled.

The Atlantic Valta ant Wetorn railway a. new road. wanted to use the terminal facilities at the union depot In Jacksonville owned by the Jacksonville Terminal Company. Admission was refused the new road which then went before the railroad commission and on September 4 1899 le- cvrsd an order requiring tb terminal company to admit the Atlantic Valdosta sod Western trains Into the union depot upon the i layment of a prescribed rental. The terminal company took the' matter Into the courts to have the powers of the railroad commission in the premises passed upon and defined.

Mandamus proceedings wera Instituted to compel the terminal company to obey the commission's order. The case had. been taking Its course through the courts for over a year until this week when it was dismissed from the supreme court docket upon a. statement by counsel that the Atlantic Valdosta and Western railway hi rfhnsofl nn foMrt i nf terminal company's capital stock la now in full enjoyment of all the terminal facilities in Jacksonville and that there is no longer any issue In dispute between- the litigants. The adjudications had In the case before its dismissal sustained the grant of powers to the railroad commission.

A strong bustling committee from the. Tallahassee city council has been appointed to arrange plans for the Inauguration of Governor-Elect William. S. Jennings and it la proposed to give the cung governor a rousing welcome to the. capital city and make a flattering dtmbn- StTation In honor of his assumption of the chief magistracy of the state.

Every Vmpany of the state troops has been invited to attend and it is believed transportation can be arranged without coal. to the companies. A. grand. inaugural hall and reception are assured and there will be music and flreworka galore.

Mr. Jennings has always shown ptawelf to be a friend of Tallahassee and Tallahassee- ans whenever occasion offered and Tallahassee Intends now to chow her appreciation.

portant-commltteea anti made an. satiable reputation ms an intelligent legislator. brought out by th memorable convict camps scandal. whish enlivened the latter days of the legtsa the session of 1599 made the solution of the state convict question-a matter of urgent importance and after close of the session Governor Bloxhani appointed Mr. Watson one of a.

commission of three to investigate the state convict system and report to- the legislature of 1101 the most practical and humane way of work- Jrg and caring for the convicts. Mr. Watson has derotad much time and thought to the convict question and last year secured th passage of a bill re QuJrlng short term convicts to work the public mafia. Mr. Watson was one of the leading workers for the election of Hon.

James P. Tllaferro to the United States senate by the last leg lature being chairman of Mr. Tallaterros caucus and steering committees. He recognized Mr. ffrros great business ability and threw his entire energies into the fight lot Taliaferro.

Florida. probably has no citizen native born or adopted who has greater faith In her future han John W. Watson. No one has ever accused him of being a corporation man for he Is rather. the opposite but he Is a conservative thoughtful business man slid as such he is strongly opposed to the enactment of laws which will tend to keep capital out of the state.

He has lived upon the scene and wit- reseed the wonderful reclamation of the once unpromising Everglades of Florida. which was accomplished by the fair treatment of outside capital. and he realize that the Indulgence of narrow prejudice against modern business methods will retard rather than advance the de' velopment of Florida's resources. Careful plans are being formulated for a decided enlargement of the work and of- the usefulness of the state chemists department. As at present organized the principal duty of that department Is to Inspect and.

analyze the commercial fertilizers sold In. this state. In order to. extend as much as la now possible the usefulness of the department. alien analyses of soils ax are found will benefit many persons in a community are also mtde by the.

state- chemist and his assistant so far. as they can find time for such work. The state law provides that every substance prepared manufactured sold or Imported for fertilizing purposes except barn yard stable' manure. tobacco' stems and crude cotton seed shall pay a tonnage taxof 25 cents a ton. to defray the cost of Inspection and analysts.

All the. southern states have a similar law. differing only in details and. the United States supreme court In' a recent case from North Carolina Patapsco Guano Company vs. The North Carolina.

Board of Agriculture 171 U. S. Reports has upheld the validity of such a tonnage tax to defray the cost of Inspection etc. But the supreme court furtherheld that all moneys collected under suehlawe must go to the support of the department conducting the inspections. The state chemists department in Florida is more than supporting.

For Instance the' last annual report of the state treasurer for 1S33 shows that there was paid into the treasury by the chemist from the tees on commercial fertilizers 600401 while the total expenses of the chemists department were but 361859 making a balance In the departments favor of tZS8542 which. under the United Elates supreme courts ruling- should be available for use by the state chemists department. The idea. of those officials who are in teresting themselves In the movement to secure from the next legislature enactments which will enable the operations of the chemists department to be ma terlallv extended Is that. all the money received from the Inspection pf fertilizers should be applied to- the employment of a.

larger force to the chemists laboratory and that inspection and analysis shall be made of fill foods and foodstuffs prepared manufactured sold' or imported for use as food or drink for man horses or cattle. sale of any article of food or any trod stuffs which are adulterated or misbranded will be- made an. indictable- offense. Connecticut and a few other states now have' such a. food Inspection law as- Is.

proposed for Florida and It is understood that State Chemist iv A Kawls of Florida will devote considerable space In his forthcoming annual- report to setting forth the benefits which would ac crue to Floridians were such a law enacted Lit Florida. So tar as sounded the members of' the. next legislature take kindly to the- proposed plan. and. It it carried through.

the. state chemists department will soon be oneW the most Important as well as most useful in the state. government. Florida is not backwards In the organization of trusts. Last year the fishery interests formed a close combination.

and now the pineapple growers are. get ting together. On January lid a meet- Ing will be held in Tampa. at which every plnapple grower in Florida Is expected to be present either in person or- by proxy and they win form what will be. practically a pineapple trust which will control.

the product of sbedded pineapples In Florida. The movement got its first Impetus from' the organization of the South Florida Pineapple nodauon of St. Petersburg Seeing the benefits already derived the organization will- to extended to Include the owner of every pineapple shed In the state. The same method of consolidation was effected last year by th fishery' Interests of the state and the Florida and Io Company orranoed. controlling th catch of Ida watera When the pineapple trust formed very mush who raises- a pineapple' in the state will ship his product to the central depot of the company la Tampa and shipments to the market win made from that depot exclusively.

The flab menbfore ifcelr lombinatfoaf were preyed upon a Mpflvidfial dealers bf tha nnscrupoloag MttraC atfired a great deal of losafrom the fact that each person. engaged in the big industry marketed his catch independently and had to submit to whatever. losses or In dignities were thrust upon him. In. order to keep his.

traslness going. since the consolidation of the fishery industry has suffered none of these drawbacks- and the officers of the. company backed as they are by ample capital and controlling the output have protected the Individual fisherman. So it has been with the Individual pine grower and so it will be with him when he becomes a. part of the big company.

He can secure better prices protect buy. era handle the fruit. more. intelligently. Increase the demand.

obtain a uniform grade pack and. brand and make a great saying In the cost of materials and supplies. Hon. John H. McKInne the eloquent state attorney for the- first west Flor idll- judicial circuit having recently died.

Governor Bloxhamha has appointed Hon. 1. Walter Xehoe one of the most brilliant young lawyers in Florida to be state attorney until the legislature meets. pov- ernor Jennings will then name a man to nil out. the.

remainder or Mr. McKlnnes term. The question has arisen as to. whether party law will Induce Governor. Jennings to request that a democratic primary be helQ In the first circuit to decide between the numerous applicants for the place.

The platform of the last democratic state convention is very positive In declaring that alt candidates. for state officers shall be nominated by- white democratic primaries but there seem to be a feeling the primary business has already been rather over done in Florida. and the chances are that Governor Jennings win select his own nominee for state attorney in thus case. A large bunch of able lawyers have announced as candidates for the office. They are Walter Kehoe.

of MarlanI1a Judge Daniel Campbell of DeFunlale Springs Ernest Amog of Milton and John 8. Beard of Pensacota Captain Charles it Parkhul of Pensacola also wants the. place but he does not propose to enter into a scramble for- it. The city of Pensacola is enjoying a period of commercial and industrial prosperity. which If.

kept up for few years will make it the wealthiest and most Important city in Florida. During the present year the exports from that port have averaged in the neighborhood of two million dollars per month. and great activity la noticeable In trades. PenUCOlJs is no. boom town but the basis of her prosperity is very solid.

The. tributary-country west. Florida and' southern Alabama lire rich' in resources and fertile in'- soil and Pensacola busi ness men are helping to develop the section so as to add to the wealth arid prosperity of their city. Pensacola is going to have a very lively winter' after the holidays in a social tt y. On December 3Otb the North Atlantie squadron" commanded by.

Rear Admiral Farquhar. will arrive there on its winter cruise and. will remain in Pensacola. harbor. coaling and maneuvering for three weeks.

The fleet will then go on a cruise In the. gulf but will re turn to Pensacola in time for the city's Mardi Gras there about two weeks. The Pensacola people expect to make their Mardi Gras carnival on Februray 18th and 19th the roost elaborate affair of- the kind ever- undertaken at any city outside of New Orleans. During the last twelve months there has been chartered. in Florida seventy.

three new corporations haying an ag. gregate capitalization of 15319500. During the preceding twelve months sixty seven corporations were chartered. with stock aggregating 2963500. This shows a gain in the amount placed in corpora.

lions in Florida. for- the past year of. 2246000. or 82 per cent. A- report has been.

quite generally seminated that SHoi. William Jennings tiryan and lion. Adlal E. Stevenson will be in Tallahassee on January 8th to. at.

tend- the inauguration. of Governor-elect William B. Jennings. Mr. Jennings and Mr.

Bryan are first cousins And are about the same age. They were raised to gether In Marion county Illinois. This ha lent plausibility to the report for wcicrz. aowever. mere la very small- foun datlon Mr.

Bryan la slated to make a Jackson day I in Chicago on the. evening of January Sth so he cannot be in Tallahassee that day. It la understood. that Mr. Stevenson contemplates visiting Florida this.

winter- for rest. and recuperation and he has promised that It he can make his arrangements satisfactory so Us to- be in Tallahassee on in auguratlon tiny he will be pleased to be In. attendance. Pineapples and cocoanuts are two of Florida's We crops. They are also ex tensJvely grown In Mexico.

A prominent citizen of that country has recently. been in communication with the Florida de partment of agriculture soliciting Information as to' the processes for extracting liquors. brandies and Oils from these fruits. The Interesting- point brought out by the correspondence Is that the greater portion of these fruits grown In Mexico now go to waste because canning i out of the question. Mexico is dependent upon the United States for her sheet tin.

tin cans common- glass jars etc. and. owing to the. high. protective tartff on- those articles in this country.

their prices are too high for the Mexicans to use them. with any profit. The suggestion. is then made- that a 3 -opening la offered for- the profitable Invest. ment of a moderate amount.

of United States capital In tin and glass- factories In Mexico. Owing to a glaring Irregularity the election returns- sent up from Taylor county the state canvassing- board was unable to complete the- official count of Florida's vot in- the election of November th until this week. On Thursday the official vote was announced. The highest vote received by a Dan presidential elector- was 8001. given to W.
