Iß.— We have g Haiti. s Ul(i horo om , ypttr last Erb lino'* consequently, passed 11 , uu the round of Florida seasons, *f th* n Edition to the customary P 1 lD summer, autumn and winter, We classified with perhaj pnence ucrurid .fee showery si Jians the rainy so more the showery season and season. Much to my regrot jason—called by Flori —is over ; it took its leave without even the parting fav of the expected and usual equinoctial ; wo had a mild taste of tho equinoctial gales, but not enough of tho longed-for equinoctiul rains to fairly dampen tho surface of the thirsty sand. Now wo onths of insufficient moisture and anxious scanning of skies that often keep the woril of promise to the eye to break it to the hope; for all piçnH of rain are emphatically prone to fail in dry weather in this locality. In the matter of temperature I can now Hay, from experience, that no Dela *od fear a Florida summer. Possibly, to take a recent instance, you may bo surprised to leurn that the hot ago, which warmed you up so uncomfortably in Wilmington and pretty much all over the North and East, did not touch here. While y a temperature of 1*8 degrees to 100 de grees, my thermometer was satisfied with a maximum of 02 degrees and a mean certainly not exceeding 85 de grees; and 85 degrees in the clearer atmosphere of Florida does not feel warm as 80 degrees in Delaware. To illustrate further, 1 would say that early yesterday morning I felt chilly in a temperature of 00 degrees, the lowest recorded hero since April. Taking the past summer ub a whole, have actually felt tho heat less in Florida than during in Wilmington, \v nothing here to equal in torridity days of boyhood torture in Kent county har vest fields. Incidentally I may add that have been less troubled by mosqui toes than oven in tho city of 'Wilming ton. I are in for eight •e of three weeks lettering under in to 8 PM /Into 'VIOUS there has been The thermometer has, however, at times ranged high; during the three weeks drouth of June which ushered in the so-called rainy season, it reached the extreme of 105 degrees; but, as said before, the difference in the air makes high temperatures able and I found outdoors without much discomfort while tho mercury was nursing the century mark in the shad«*. There is muggy, sticky hot weather here and there is no fruitless hunting for a cool place: it may be set down rule with practically no exception, that it is always cool in the shade in seated under a thor bear yself able to work Florida. mometer marking 105 degrees the re freshing breeze keeps whether the big mistake. You degrees but you feel doubting >reury has not side a ?e that it is 105 though it were not moro than 85 degrees. In addition I do not the nights recall a night of the past summer that was hot enough to interfere with sound sleep.

THE POOR YOUNG MAN AT YALE. FrABtdeut Dwight Thinks Hit Hi Chnuco To-day New |Uv*n Register. I Good Art to tho lina With the return of studonlr to town and the oponing of the college year, topics concerning tho students and student life become of the greatest in tercut. Among these there is m more interest than the problem of the poor young there college whom being l>oor, having ''great expectations," are sup plied by friends with funds sufficient to om through it he course in Yule, tho poor young who comes to Yale with the expecta tion of in part of at college. Of course pionty of poor young would at ,*er suspect who, although without Of , however, and bo tive of now tho to the the vor and to the wholly scratching around to supply liis own-living thut is of the greatest interest. President Timothy Dwight to day at his office i building on the Yale campus, spoke with considerable interest topic, giving about, as woll those who find it a hard struggle to get through collego. ''The seen the treasurer's He much information good advice to all e poor young men at college afe disappearing element in college * said the President. ''On the not a life, ' other baud, I believe that the number of students who support themselves in part or in fact wholly is constantly in creasing. I am not myself possessed of exact statistics us to the number of men who support themselves wholly or in part when going through collego, but it iB very large, much larger than tho outsider who gets only a superficial view of matters would believe. But without statistics 1 feel quite sure in saying that tiie number is larger than it ov the of the is he before, and is increasing every year. "Not only this, but the percentage of poor young as well Yale has to a the poor young Of course there very wealthy ones, every entering class, but that i counted fi 11 at Yale increased the number.

It ia only grow ing in tbiH way as it has done in every other way." . President Dwight then spoke of tho opportunities the to help himself along. Ho spoke way that clearly indicated full acquaintance with every branch of this study. "Tutoring," continued President Dwight, "furnishes prehaps the best chance for at least partial support of a college young man. It is far mo tonuively carried oh' than ever before, qrul on the account of the employment it provides, if for noother reason, does considerable good.

" Mention was then .made of to •tide upon "College Life," which President /ritten for a had lightly touched upon the question of tho strug gles of the poor young man. ' replied President Dwight to question, "I do not consider that the 's health is usually bo at Dwight hud previously magazine, in which h he "No,' poor young seriously or at all injured by the extra work ho goes tbrou&lii ' Of course, ho can overwork, but such young usually turn out as weil as others who do uotvdo extra work. Everything hue depends upon the young himself. His studies aro possibly not so well prepared.

"N in thi at off cut the Every y they aro consid ered socially less worthy on account of their poverty." The president anpeared quito positive on this point. He added : "Thero is no place where I esteemed for what he is and what he docs than tit. collego. The man who in part support h himself is just respected as those who hav times in their college year. "As to the question of tho effect upon the clutmeter of a poor y of this double struggle for cation and for support there is lit lie doubt of Uiul. best, for, no struggle, lie i his independence, self-reliant, und i to face the do l beliov tho •h sW 5; : ; t can bo but for the utter how haul his *nt. 11«' feels >n he becomes perhaps better able /oral at the end of fi years than some of those who have n«it been through the poor young es.

SILVER FEVER DYING OUT. Art toc Ground In R<imore Bun special. Washington, Oct. 15.—The useful work accomplished in Georgia by Sec retary Smith and the recent speeches of Secretary of the Navy Herbert in Ala bama huvo unquestionably done much to scatter the free silver ranks in those States and to mobilize moro strougly tho advocates of sound money. The Gulf States aud Georgia, South Caro lina and North Carolina have been the of Frei» Coinage llapidly Loaiti o Bo to of of be scouos of greater political activity and have expressed a deepor interest in tho silver question than most common wealths east of tho Mississippi river, n none of these will thero and while bo an election tins fall to tost the rela tive strength of either side, tho fore of both the Hound money ineu and the silver men aro being marshaled now with the expectation of capturing tho delegations to the next Democratic national convention. Early i spring and for several weeks during the summer tho silver advocates seemed to predominate in those States and dis "played a greater activity and corded moro enthusiastic receptions than their less active opponents. As the months parsed, however, and the people awakened to a deeper interest in the question und heard strong presenta tions of both sides by men of nationnl repute, it became evident that tho sonnet money adherents strength at tho oxpense of tho free nil vor heretics. In Georgia, tho hot-bed of free silv and one of the first States in tho South to bring up the question prominently, the cause has been constantly dwind probably con tiaie draws the to gaiu mg J ling, and will force as tho selection of delegates to the next De cratio convention. The active work of the De of Secretary ally in bringing about the result, and ' that Alabama has renewed and in vited a reopening of the question on the stump, it is asserted by Mr. Her bert aud other prominent men of the party, who huvo felt the pulse of both sides, that she will full into line next spring or summer with a solid sound money delegation. Secretary Herbert is satisfied with the situation, which he reports Georgia. During State he spoke to large and attentive audiences at Montgomery, Evergreen, Birmingham and Huntsville, and found the people ready to listen to the argu ments of both sides and callable of opinions on ull de tinue to lose near for the /ratio* press and the speeches •y Smith havo aided matcri if almost similar to that i. *nt visit to hi forming their tails of the question. To-day the tary informed a "Sun" representative that he was entirely satisfied with the iling conditions and that ho was confident the sound would be no doubt of /inning eventually. He admitted, however, that the silver feeling was very strong and that deter mined and continued work would bo required to prevent its taking further hold. He believe the people under stood tho two sides of tho arguments bettor and ho thought that tho more it was discussed the greater the number of converts to the sound money cause. ANOTHER "SACKVILLE" INCIDENT. Now York 'I t Lord Sackville, who became very /ell known throughout this country ago as Mr. Sackville-Wost and as British Minister at Washington, iH still dissatisfied with the treatment ho received upon that occasion. He has written a pamphlet for the sake of vindicating himself »von ye and of exposing the fficiais who were constrained to send him his pussp irts. As has hap poned before, his vindication has that which thee to curse effect exactly contrary to he intended. "1 took 1 mine enemies, and behold! thou hast blessed them altogether." So far fr justifying himself, Lord Sackville how unfit ho is for any place requiring tho exorcise of discre tion, and anew justifies President Cleveland and Secretary Bayard for de clining to transact any further busi ;ith or through him. On would suppose that a diplomatist, .•ceesfully amid shows ane of all men, who had been "drawn" by a confidence be shy of tho subject thereafter, and would let the memory of his victimi die out as fast as possible, instead of writing pamphlets to keep it alive. That is the common custom of themselves too innocent ti* show » do not ro und credulous. In fact, moniker Sackvillo's, i writte circulation, entitled "How I W koed. " That may not be the ex title of Lord Sackvillo's pamphlet, I before this of Lord __L anybody bus a book for private Bun /hich book, ev •t pamphlet, but title which exactly describes its subject matter. The moro tho of "tho Sackville incident" is stirred up the clearer it becomes how very shallow and how unfit to catch an adult male diplomatist was the trap into which Mr. Sackville-West fell. Tho Western "local" who "bunkoed" him had his skill. His production bore all his •armarks and had not tho least resemblance to the composition of the born British subject and naturalized citizen front whom it pro îd to emanate.
