Drowned Women and Children.
LAKE CITY, MINI, July 14.-In a few
minutes dozen or more row boats were
manned and put out from the shore.
The upturned boat was at last discovered,
the twenty or more people clinging to
the boat were rescued and brought to
the shore, most of them being able to
swim. A full list of the $50 passengers
which are pretty certain to have been
drowned is not obtainable at this writ
ing. A large majority of them were
women and children, those being saved
being nearly all strong men, who were
able to swim and cling to the boat after
it had capsized.
Damage at Lake City Great.
On the return from the capsized boat
with three or four people who had been
rescued one of the rowboats encountered
two floating bodies, each with life
preserver attached to them. In Lake
City the damage to property by the
cyclone is great, although no fatalities
have been reported. Up to this time

IT is comparatively easy to do one i'm

tinue day by day, year after year, show

Insignificant acts demands protracted
effort. To consider the troubles of those
around us and try to alleviate them, to
be neighborly, in the widest sense of the
word, to those among we dwell, yet not
to neglect our homes or our social rela-
tions-all these take time and energy;
but in the performance lie happiness
and cure for that unrest which preys

THE persons who pose for earnestness
and they are not few-are bores; but
they who have forgotten themselves in
true and earnest devotion to noble ideals
in humanity are our inspirers as well as
guides. They are the men and women
who do not only interest society, but
who make society; they are the poles
around which society centers.
