r. E. Davidson, who is in charge
of the Ocala Rifles at Camp Hen
derson had the misfortune to
lose his pocketbook containing
5000. while in Jacksonville. In
addition to the money, it contained
the railroad ticket for his entire
company and some valuable pa
pers. The loss was not discovered
until the company was on their
way to Tallahassee. On his ar
rival there, Capt. Davidson took
the first train back to Jackson

but at last accounts he had not
succeeded. It is stated that in
addition to his own valuables, he
had $50. in cash belonging to

money to Mr.. Davidson to keep

To the editor of the Star:
You certainly mis-reported my
talk before the city council on
Tuesday evening. My remarks
were in favor of the poor man be-
ing allowed the privilege OF OBJ
tanning some of the same luXu-
ries on Sunday that the rich were
able to enjoy at their BONES.
The poor man, not being able
to afford an ice cream freezer, Cr
to buy soda water by the case, is
deprived of such luxurieS, while
his more affiuent neighbor is able
to enjoy them.
AS to the wind being taken ont
of my sails by Rev. Hilburn, |
would hate to think that my sails
were so weak as to collapse at
any such argument as that made
on the subject by that gentleman.
On the contrary, he failed to
show how The purchase of a
newspaper, glass of soda or n
dish of ice cream could injurc the
morals of any one. We claim
that no moral or even a divine
law is violated by such an act.
Mr.. Hilburn nor Mr.. Law, no, Eor
even Mr.. Green, produced one
line or word Of scriptural author
ity for keeping Sunday holy, nor
can they do so. We do not wish
to be understood as being op-
posed to keeping Sunday as day
of rest and worship; on the con-
trary, we believe in doing every
thing that can possibly be done
for the advancement of Chris
tianity, and as it has been the
custom of the Christian church
to keep Sunday as day of wor-
ship, we believe as strongly as
any one in keeping it.
Don't strain at a gnat and
swallow a camel. If you stop
this little innocent thing, then
stop the livery stables from hir-
ing horses and men for work on
Sunday; stop requiring your SER
