cndeavOr to have ho train leave Jacksonville at 30
II. s. HAINFS.
It was learned that all bound for Camp Perry
would be carried free. while all who 90 beyond
must pay fail fare. This was the subject of much
complaint there are hundreds Of people thero
who should 90 yet are financially unable. Tho

who can to 20 at once. This morning. the an
nouncement ol Mrs. j. L. Hoplinss death and
also that of Captain J. II. McCinnis increases the

day the rain fell heavily, while the thunder was
unceasing. The greater portion of the people who
