AUGUSTINE, Fla., Nov. 26, i893. This famous old city, so full of interest to the tourist, and, in fact, to every lover ef history or historical surroundings, ts Fapidly arising from its dreamy lethargy of the past six months and preparing for the entertainment of the thousands of tourists who .re now commencing to arrive, driven by the cold winds of the north and west to the delightful climate which reigns here 0 tranquilly, while the icy sleet and slush Brevail but a few hundred miles away. Year after year the atractions of St. Au- gustine have drawn increased numbers of pleasure seekers and invalids until now, like Nice in italy, which climate it so close- ly resembles, it is the winter home of thousands. As regards ali those adjuncts which make our exterior life enjoyable Florida possesses a larger share than any other climate on the continent and old St. Augustine, with her cool sea breezes and cloudless sun, enjoys the reputation of being the Eden of Florida.

We can al- most fancy we see their shadowy forms stoop their plumed heads as they pass in and out of their ancient homes, with gilt | purs jangling and swords clanging at their heels. We are steeped to the lips in the spirit of the middie ages all round us and | everywhere we recognize the features and individualities of days dead and gone. The hotels, built expressly for the service of the traveling world, are the only touches of modern life we find herein—no other thing of modern birth dares lift its head in St. Augustine. As a rule the inhabitants seem made to match the place—indeed, they are a part of it. Many are the descendants of the early settlers and they and their fathers before them have lived here all their days and still occupy the ancient dwellings of their race. While I said the hotels were the only touches of modern life yet they too, ex- teriorly speaking, are generally types of the ancient Spanish architecture and built | in harmony with the surroudings. Narrew d Crooked Streets. The streets of the city are narrow and crooked, varying from ten to twenty feet wide, the houses having balconies jutting out overhead, so close together that the ladies thereon can almost shake hands across from one side of the road to the other. The original houses are mostly built of a kind of compressed shell-stone, called “coquina,” which is quarried from the Is- land of Anastasia, lying about a mile across the harbor, and separates St. Augus- tine from the Atlantic ocean. The most picturesque and romantic of all the quaint old streets is St. George street, with its curious hanging balconies clinging | along the front thereof, which are gener- ally covered with climbing plants. The white coquina walls rise straight and bare direct from the roadways; the windows are small and closely curtained, as though the old Spanish dons still jealously guarded their hidden beauties from the sight of man. There is an air of great seclusion every- where. We might be wandering through an oriental city, but we know that behind these bare walls there are blooming gardens of oleander, magnolia, orange and lemon trees. At the top of St. George street stands the ancient city gate, which once formed a part of the old stone wall which, running from shore to shore, protected the city from hostile incursions. The greater part of the wall has long since disappeared, but @ rude, rugged, moss-covered mass clings around as though it helped to support the still ornamented towers which once rose up on each side of the city gate, and which still stands massive and strong. Fort Marion. Passing between the still stately towers we come in full view of Fort Marion, one of the most attractive features of St. Augus- tine. It was commenced in 1592. It is a re- markably fine and imposing structure. Grand, gray and massive, standing on a gentle rising hill, just outside the city, lift- ing its gloomy front toward the sea. The fort is perfect in all its parts, stamped only | with the desolation and dreariness which must brood over any place which is de- serted and unused for a long period of years. In the interior old dungeons, case- mates, etc., are all intact, and guns lying in their carriages are frequent. It is cer- tainly a weird yet interesting old place, and constantly the loitering place of the winter tourist. Of the famous hotels of St. Augustine, the Ponce de Leon and Alcazar will open in January, but the Cordova is quar- tering a large number of guests. This house has never opened until a month later and makes the town much livelier this year. Among the other houses either now open or rapidly preparing for an early resume | of business are the Magnolia, Florida, San Marco, Barcelona and Valencia. W. E. E. pone a Severin ORIOLES BANQUETED.

The city council occupied most of its time at last night's meeting in discussion of the proposal for the erection of twelve or four- teen railroad gates at the railroad crossings of the streets. The common council had, at its last meeting, passed an ordinance re- quiring twelve gates; but the matter had been laid over in the aldermen. During last week a conference was held between some representatives of the railroad and some members of the council and, as a result, the aldermen at the meeting last night amend- |ed the ordinance so as to reauire but four | gates. The council refused to concur and jon the report of a committee of conierence | two additional gates were added to the or- |dimance. ‘nis, nowever. was not acceptable to the lower board; and a proposal requir- ing double gales at some tweive crossings having been suomitted, the Guestion Weut over unUl Lue neat meeting. ‘The lower board, ainong other business, reterrea, an appucauen tor reducuon of taxation from mairs.

Dur- |ing the progress of the trial which com- |menced on Monday morning, the court | house was crowded by an eager throng. The | prisoner was placed on the stand and made |a statement of the affair, claiming that | Anderson attempted to wrest the gun from him and in the struggle which ensued the | weapon was discharged, causing the death wound. This s dicted by the witnesses for the state. The case was ably argued by Messrs. Peter and Eichelberger, for the state, and Mr. J. E. R. Wood, for the defense. Leonard will re- ceive the sentence of the court on Monday next, after which he will be taken back to the jail at Frederick.

The Queenstown Mite and Literary So- ciety held its regular meeting in the lecture room of the Baptist Church last the entertainment committee, and under her direction a pleasing program was pre- pared. Coffee and sandwiches were serv- ed after the literary exercises closed. A vacant house belonging to Mr. S. J. Owens in the addition to South Brookland near the corner of Itth and Indianapolis streets caught fire at an early hour Monday evening and was burned to the ground. The building being frame and quite old burned like tinder, in spite of the rain, and, situated upon a commanding knoll, the blaze was visible for miles around, causing much alarm and bringing numbers to the scene. There is no doubt that the origin of the fire was incendiary, and had it not been for the falling rain more than a dozen houses in the vicinity would have been ignited from the sparks. There will be mass and Thanksgiving serv- ices at 8 o'clock a.m. on Thursday at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church and union Thanksgiving services will be held in the Baptist Church of Brookland on Thanks- giving evening. Brookland has special | cause for thanksgiving this year, for it is just five years old this month and its |growth and prosperity are remarkable. | During the first year the work of subdivid- ing was carried on and five houses erected. Now there are almost two hundred com- fortable houses in the little town, a hand- some church and town hall, locations pur- chased for two other churches, a continued influx of good citizens, more houses in course of construction and the prospect of all the advantages of a young city in the very near future.

The Evangelical Lutheran Sunday School of Frederick is making arrangements to celebrate its seventy-ninth anniversary on January 1 next. An exciting game of foot ball was played at Mt. St. Mary's College, Emmitsburg, this county, between the Mt. St. Mary’s and the Baltimore City College teams. The former won by a score of 18 to 0. A return game will be played in Baltimore December 6. A gang of desperate tramps seem to be holding forth along the main stem of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad between Fred- erick and Ellicott City, and they have even gone so far as to hold up members of train crews in true highwayman manner. Con: ductor J. J. Willhide of Baltimore was ac- costed at Gray's water station Saturday night by three masked men, who fired at him and relieved him of his watch. A short time before the same gang held up Frederick Snyder, a German laborer, near the same place, and robbed him of his over- coat. Several B. and O. detectives, with the aid of the authorities of this county, are endeavoring to break up the gang. Pawnee Bill's Wild West Show has gone into winter quarters here. Mr. and Mrs Edward J. Shope and son of Washington are visiting here. Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Seeger and Miss Nel- He Brust are visiting in Washington. os LAUREL, Last evening about half-past 6 o’clock the cry of fire brought everybody out of their houses, when it was discovéred that the large stables of the Laurel Mill Company were in flames. So rapidly did the fire spread that it was impossible to rescue the stock and three valuable mules were burned to death. There were six mules and two horses in the stables and with difficulty were any of them saved. The wind blew the sparks on the roof of the summer residence of the president of the company, Dr. D.H. Carroll, but a constant application of water prevented the destruction of this fine building. The loss is quite heavy, with no insurance. In addition to the loss of the mules twenty-five tons of hay, a large quantity of hay and fodder, two carriages, a large wagon, harness and other valua- ble property disappeared in smoke. Rich- ard Federline and William Crocket in their efforts to save the stock were burned con- siderably, while others had narrow es- capes. Dr. Carroll, who lives in Baltimore, was telephoned for and came out on the first train, but was unable to ascertain the origin of the fire. Bailitl B. F. Robey, who was so severely cut by a tramp last week, is recovering slowly and is now able to be out, but is ill very weak from the loss of blood. | Miss Lee Keller has been appointed teach. er of school No. 1 and is assigned to the vacancy caused by the resignation of Miss Bessie Gardner, third assistant principal. The marriage of Mr. F. W. Awalt and | Miss Effie Young was celebrated at 11 ‘o'clock today in St. Mary's R, C. Church. |The happy couple left immediately after | the ceremony for western Maryland. Thanksgiving services will be held in St. Philip's Episcopal Church tomorrow. Baltimore parties have bought the Berry farm, near here, one of the oldest and best properties in this section of the coun- try, the price paid being very low, less than $20 per acre. | Never in the history of Laurel have | tramps been so plentiful as they are now. | Every evening several are in town asking ‘for lodging and something to eat. This is becoming a great nuisance and steps are about to be taken to establish a stone yard, where every tramp caught in the town limits will have an opportunity to earn the ‘price of his entertainment for one night at least. This will improve the tramps, also the streets, upon which the broken stone will be used. me Re TAKOMA PARK. Takoma Lodge, No. 24. I. O. O. F., was the recipient at its last regular meeting of a | visitation from the Grand Lodge of the Dis- trict of Columbia. The lodge room was | filled tg its utmost capacity by members jand friends, the guests Including among | their number several of the officers of the Grand Lodge. An oyster supper served at Hotel Watkins, at which Mayor Macis pre- | sided as toastmaster, completed a most en- joyable evening. The regular monthly business meeting of the Y. P. S. C. E. was held in the basement | of the chapel last evening, when encourag- | | ing reports from committees were read, and | the advisability of holding a series of meet- _ ings, under the auspices of this society ear- ly in the coming year was discussed, but not acted upon. The Takoma Sewing Circle, which meets weekly for the purpose of sewing and r | ceiving donations for the poor, will not hold its usual meeting, Thursday being | Thanksgiving day. Mr. J. R. Snodgrass, after a zesidence of a year or more in Washington, is again domiciled in his Maple avenue home, where | he anticipates spending the winier. | | Mr. Geo. L.

Uur senuois are very poor, Some of them poverty stricken, and we waat the same privileges as are accorded tne ue- nominational scnvols in surope and in Can- jada. Of course we will have ne usual amount of bigotry against us, but we have always had to contend with that.” Bishop Paret of the Protestant Episcopal Church in Maryland said: “I am decidedly opposed to this move- ment. It seems ciear that it is the duty of the state or civil authority to take care for and insure, as far as possible, a sound and useful education for ali the people. “Ignorance would be the deterioration and downfall of the nation, sound general in- struction one of its great protections. The maintenance of public schools is a neces- sity, therefore, for the public welfare. Tax- ation to sustain these schools is a necessit; and a tax for that purpose will certainly | be more cheerfully borne than for any other. “Happily, in this country there is not and cannot be an established religion or church. Full liberty of conscience is insured to all. Unhappily, differences and divisions about religion are many and great. Of necessity, therefore, no form of religion or worship booms make part of the public school instruc- tion. “The argument made by Roman Catholics that they are paying a double tax is utterly fallacious. They pay but one educational tax, that to the state for the public schools. The other expense is a voluntary religious contribution, just as really as pew rent or offerings at church of contributions for mis- sions or for the poor. It is purely and ab- solutely voluntary, and the good sense of the American people is too strong to be| blinded by that curious argument of a double tax. “The state taxes all, hut not to pay for the special personal benefits which each child receives in education. It taxes the chilfless, therefore. But it is for the bene- fits which come to the whole community in good order and progress. and each one’s personal henefit comes through that. Let those, then, who want schools. more to their liking than our public schools be free to have them. but I repeat, it must be at (their own cost.” LONDON’S TOWN TOPIC. Squire Abingdon’s £30,000 Check Be- comes a “Celebrated Case.” The queen’s bench division of her ma- jesty’s high court of justice in London was filled yesterday with a large and expectant crowd, eager to hear the evidence in what they believed would be a “‘cause celebre.’ The case grew out of a check given by the late Abingdon Baird, better known as “Squire Abingdon,” to Mrs. Lily Langtry. The check was for the sum of £30,000, Shortly after Baird had given this princely gift to Mrs. Langtry the two had a quar- rel, and Baird determined that if it was possible he would prevent Mrs. Langtry trom enjoying the money. He knew that to demand the return of the check himself would result in refusal, so he thought he would use diplomacy. He went to Mr. Seaton, a well-known racing man, and employed him to get the check or the money back, promising to give him one- third of the amount. Seaton quietly went to work and after some delay he secured the money and turned it over to Baird. The latter gave Seaton a check for £10,000, but when it was presented for payment Seaton was surprised to find that payment had been stopped. He learned that Baird had become recon- ciled with Mrs. Langtry and this enlight- ened him as to why he could not obtain the money his check called for. Efforts to get Baird to pay his debt failed and after his death Seaton brought suit | against the executors of Baird's estate to recover the amount claimed. The case came up yesterday and hence the crowd in the court room, all of whom expected to hear evidence bearing on the relations that had existed between Baird and Mrs. Langtry. Not only was the court room filled, but an immense throng strug- gled about the entrance, hoping that by some means they would gain ingress. They were disappointed in getting in and the crowd inside were disapointed as well. Counsel for Mr. Seaton had hardly begun his address when Sir Henry James, counsel for the execyttors, arose and asked for the withdrawal of the case. The request was granted and the case will be settled out of court. ——____ e+ ____ PREY OF THE STORM. Wrecks Along the Coast of New Eng- land. The schooner Louise H. Randall, from Philadelphia for Boston, went ashore dur- ing yesterday off Smith’s Point, opposite Bellport, L. I. Her captain, Hawthorne, his wife, his son, and eight members of the crew lashed themselves to the spars. Every | effort was made to reach them by the life- saving people, but their life lines would not reach the vessel, and the surf was 80 heavy that they could not use the boat. At a late hour last night the observer at Fire Island reported the schooner Louise H. Randall breaking up rapidly. There is an unknown two-masted lumber- laden schooner, apparently British, ashore on Deer Island, off Massachusetts. She lies on a rocky bottom, bow on. A tug has gone to_her assistance. Tug Mary A. Beveridge, Capt. L. D. Pot- ter, bound for St. Johniand, L. I., with a> tow of three barges, put into Stamford, Conn., yesterday morning, and_ reported | that at about 3:30 a.m. she was obliged, for their own safety, to cut loose from two of them because of the gale and heavy sea. At 10 o'clock yesterday forenoon, Capt. Charles Stone of Swampscott, Mass., noted Trom the beach that onlythe two topmasts of a schooner could be seen out of water be- tween Dread Ledge, Swampscott, and Egg Rock light. A volunteer crew left the beach | soon after in the Humane Society lifeboat for the wreck. One of the schooner’s boats | was found bottom up and the other had been smashed in hitting against the side of the vessel. The schooner had sunk in about twelve fathoms of water, and it is supposed she struck on Dread Ledge and drifted off toward Egg Rock. It is thought by the Swampscott fishermen that she was loaded with cement and was about 100 tons. Nothing Is known of the fate of the crew. eee A Suicide Club tn Indiana, The coroner has completed his investiga- tion into the death of William Ozier, who | committed suicide at Whiting, Ind., a few | days ago, and it has been brought to light that a suicide club is in existence in Lake | county. At stated intervals a drawing oc- curred and the member who drew the fatal | ballot was to be the next victim. The. secrecy of the club made the investigation difficuit, but the twelve persons who have | lately taken their lives in Lake county are all supposed to have been members. It is a strange circumstance that each of pod twelve adopted different means of sui- cide. ——— _ +e+ --___ Fog Troubles the Olympia Again.
