Thanksgiving Day.


The observance et tris national holiday
10 the city was becoming in every respect.
During the afternoon all business houses
were close d, and merchants and clerks
passed the time very pleasurably at their
homes.
Union services were held at ii o'clock in
the forenoon in the Congregational church,
and a very ole discourse was preached by
Rev. J. Viii Ter, pastor of the Meth odist
church. Thanksgiving Is peculiarly an
American holiday, and the minister dwelt
particularly on the many favorable eondi-
tiens surrounding the republic at the pres
ent. The patriotism and common sense OF
the American people have overcome many
obstacles to progress in the past. aud an
abiding hope may be entertained tnat the
same will be true of the future. A large
number of psrsons were in attendance on
the services, aud the discourse was listened
to with marked attention. Mr. Whistler
was at his best, and his language was choice
and his illustrations very apt. The singing
was very excellent. and was one of the
agreeable features of the services.
There were many reunions Of families,
the members of whom had been widely sep.
arated This Is one of the most pleasant
features of Thanksgiving. aud the hallowed
memories of such occasions sancti6es the

In week LlIue, as tne Splr1U udu
promised, the maize was ripe. Each
day the princess went to the field,
plucked a few ears and once more
gave them forms of life. But to one
of the ears she secretly gave the form
of a magpie. Fly, talking bird, :"
said she. It'll thou comest to the
tribe of the Shoshones and tell the
young chief Idanha that his beloved
is foully held prisoner by the Spirit
Hal Walla, but is planning to escape.
Bid him wait for me in the valley of
pines the third sleep from now with
horses and men. Begonel Away!"
The bird obediently arose in the air,
and her eyes followed it longingly
till it faded in the distance.
The young chief meanwhile had
taken the disappearance of his dear
princess greatly to heart. He be-
came melancholya and sad. Even the
chase lost its attractions In the
depth of his misery he derived
gloomy comfort from the profound
solitude of the forest, where he spent
his time mourning her as dead. One
day as he sat brooding thus the still
ness about him was broken by the
sharp, shrill utterance of his name.
AS he started to his feet the cry was
repeated, and he saw with amaze
ment that it came from a magpie,
who was sitting on one of the lower
limbs of a gigantic fir tree. With
the illogical intuition Of love vague
hope thrilled through his soul, and
holding out his hand he invited the
bird to perch on his finger. The
magpie accepted the invitation, de-
livered the message which the prin-
cess had sent, and then futtered
away, leaving the astonished Idanha
in transports of happiness. With a
cheerfulness to which he had long
been stranger he returned to his
wigwam, got together the braves,
ponies and provisions he needed and
set out straightway for the valley of
pines.
On the third day the princess pre-
pared to execute her plan. The sun
was painting the hilltops in golden
glory and the earth was fresh with
the moist odors of the awakening day
as she came from her wigwam in all
the radiance of her beauty. Well she
knew whom she would find lingering
about, and when she advanced to
meet him with smile of promise
upon her lips-the first she had ever
bestowed upon the unhappy gnome-
his rapture knew no bounds.
"Fair one," cried he, 'hast thou
come at last to reward me for my
long faithfulness2 To say the word
that will make me the happiest of my
kindf"
The willy princess blushed and cast
down her eyes.

Word reaches US that the sovereigns
Of Citra are DESTROYS that the Hon. p.
p. Bishop enter the race for state sem
ator, and that Mr. Ed. l.. Wartmann
make the run for the Legislature. This
desire is 50 general on the part Of the
voters OF the district that these respect
ed and honored citizens can be consid-
cred in the race.
Mr.. Bishops fitness and ability are
so well known that comment would
be superfluous.
Mr.. Warlmann is young man of in
telligence and good executive ability,
and those who know his career and the
success that has attended his labors as
an orange grower, and in the line of
merchandising, must recognize his
ability and note the excellent equip
ment he possesses to serve the people
Of Marion county as one of her legis-
lators.

IN MEMoRIAM.

Mrs. SADIE DUNN MORTON was s,nen in penn.
sy1yania in in 1868 and removed with her parents
when a child to Clay Center, Kansas Here she
lived until she came to Florida in 1880 III search
of nealth. she made her home with Mrs. u. II.
SWAIN, Of Anthony. and her health was 50 much
improved by fall that she accepted position in
the schools Of the county teaching at Santos.
There she became acquainted with Mr.. G. A.
Morton who woed and won her for wife, being
united to him in marriage at Anthony, Florida
in the fall OF 1890. This very happy union was
blessed by the birth Of one child bright, lovely
boy now x years old
We can not now understand why this happy
nnion should so soon be severed. The seeds of
the disease beginning TO show il became evident
that her faithful, Christian life here would soon
be changed TO a life where are promised that
sickness and death never enter; so when the
death angel quietly entered the home May Ist
1894, and transported her to brighter home the
coming was not unexpected. The quiet loving
Christian heart had made strangers to feel as
closely drawn to her as could ties of blood and
in her death many hearts were caused TO grieve
but they grieve not as those who have no hope
for while her whole life was a testimony for
Christ, the last ten days was much more so. 1t
was a season of constant testimony of the saving
power of Jesus and the fullness of his love and
precionsness of his promises, What grand
legacy to leave her friends, especially to the de
voted, sorrowing husband.
The nterment took place in the Barnes
burial place, Rev. c. w. Moore conducting the
service. The banks of lovely floral offerings
that completely covered her last resting place
were silent witnesses of the esteem in which she
was held by those among whom she had lived
for the last three years.
Not now, but in the coming years,
II may be i'll the better land,
Wen read the meaning of our tears.
And there sometime, Wen understand. -
Wen know why clouds instead of sun,
Were over many a cherished plan,
Why song has ceased when scarce begun

The Case Of George ". Wilson.

Mr.. Wilson'S confirmation is again
hung up. Just as the vote was about
to be taken last Friday Senator Lodge,
Of Massachusetts,, read letter from a
DIR. Everett, charging Mr. Wilson with
having acted improperly towards a
young woman placed under his pro-
lection. This is SO unlike Mr.. Wilson
that his friends absolutely repudiase
the charge, and if it were true it should
have been settled in some other way
and at the time of its occurrence. If,
however, there should be tinge of
color to it we believe it susceptible of
such explain ton as will be accepted
by all men not prejudiced in the prem
Uses. And, indeed, Mr.. Wilson sends
n prompt denial of the charge to the
Citizen The following is his tele-
gram:
ORANGE LAKE, May S-The charges purport
ing to be preferred by Senator Lodge are ground
less and a cruel perversion of truth aud fact. l
shall in due time disprove this accusation by
ample testimony and show it to be another act Of
persecution, many of which have been subject
ed to for months past
We think Senator Paseo made a
mistake 10 having Mr.. Wilson's name
sent back to the committee for an in
vestigation of this new charge. His
prompt confirmation would have set
the Senate's seal of condemnation
upon this unusual and unmanly mode
of warfare and which we can not see
is helpful to the public service.

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
eli the organs of the body are under the con.
tPoi OF the nerve centerS, located in or near
the base of the brain, and that when these are
deranged the organs which they supply with
nerve fluid are also deranged. When it Is re-
membered that q serious injury to the spinal
cOfd Will cause paralysis of the body below
the injured point, because the nerve force is
prevented by the injury from reaching the
paralyzed portion, it will be understood how
the arrangement of the nerve centers will
cause the arrangement of the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
TWo-thirdS of chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action of the nerve centers at
the base or the brain, not from q derange-
ment primarily originating in the organ it
self. The great mistake of physicians in
treating these diseases is that they treat the

over 20 years, and has made many important
discoveries in connection with it, chief among

treatment are wrong. All headache, dizzi-
ness, dullnesss confusion, pressure, blues,
mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy st.

men.
While the bank deals literally with
all its customers, it never deviates
from well established conservative
methods, accepted by the best finan-
cial institutions of the land.
The First National Bank is our
financial land mark, and one whose
standing in the commercial world is
unquestioned.

Do You Ship Tomatoes2

Florida tomatoes were formerly
shipped in bushel or box crates. Sew
eral years ago carrier crates made in
Virginia and Tennessee came into use
This year the larger part OF the crop
of southern tomatoes have been ship

Warnell Lumber and Veneer Co., at
Warnell, Fla, thirty-five miles south
of Ocala. This company has studied
the wants of Florida shippers, and
their success is attested by the large
sale of their crate to the almost exclu-
sion of the foreign crates.
