The big Plant System excur-
sion to this city from ST. Angus
tine yesterday is right in line
with the suggestion made by the
Star some weeks ago. 1t really
did more good than all the out
bound excursions we have had
during the season. Between
three and four hundred people
were brought to our city where
they spent two days visiting
friends and enjoying a delightful
trip to Silver Springs. These
people not only enjoyed them
selves but they spent money
freely and this surplus picnic
money might as well be spent in
building up Ocala as anywhere
else. The Plant System is GER.
tainly worthy of commentator
for their efforts along this line
Let all the other roads follow
suit and our city will be boiling
over with industrial activity.

The gross receipts of a prize
fight in New York on Wednesday
night were $4,000. It is estima-
ted that fully one half the men
who attended are directly or in
directly engaged in q labor
strike for higher wages and the
other half were not laborers. 1t
seems to us that when the labor
ing class of one city can afford
to pay forty thousand dollars In
one evening to see an ordinary
prize fight there is not very much
excuse for raising their wages.

Gold Dredger for the Yukon.

A St. Louis company has been form ed with the purprse of dredging the bottom of the Yukon river. A dredge- boat is being constructed of special design which it is believed will get verything worth having out of the river in no time. It will be equipped with a sand pump, which will handle 200 tons per hour. Patent sluice boxes will be placed on each side on the boat running it's entire length, and so ar ranged that all the gold will be saved, however fne
 During the season, the dredge will operate twenty-four hours a day. In sand which runs but $50 a ton, which is conservative estimate, it will be seen that the boat will have a capac- ity of $24o, 900 day. The expedition will be provisioned for two years, and gasoline launch will act as tender, making regular trips to the mouth of the Yukon, thus keeping connection with the base of supplies.
 Nobody can join the expedition without money, and each member must have life and accident insurance in favor of the company. The boat will be completed and delivered to the mouth of the Yukon, ready to move, as soon as the ice leaves the river.

THE CORONADO
The Big Hotel on the Peninsula Fill
ing Up


Tourists are beginning to arrive in
San Diego from the east in considerable
numbers, and as a result Hotel de;
Coronado is assuming an unusual air OF
activity. The hotel is under new man
agement this year. Mr.. Babcock havins ;
to devote so much Of his time to out
side business matters that he was una
BILE to give the hotel the attention nee
essary. Mr.. Bailey. the new manager
comes from Glenwood Springs, Col, and
while he has only been here about a
month. he already has the management
of the big house we'll in hand. and the
army Of help is now moving like clock
work. In an interview with the new
manager yesterday he stated. to The
Herald correspondent that the big re
sort was being put in shape for this
heavy winter trade az rapidly as pos
sible, and that in a few weeks more
everything would be ready for any rush
that might come.
Work on the $4,000 jetty on the ocean
front south Of the hotel is progressing
rapidly, and in few weeks more will
be completed, when tourists will have
safe haven for their pleasure crafts,
and will be able to go to sea direct from
the end of the wharf without having to
go around in the bay by way of Point
Iona. as heretofore. Deep-sea fishing
from the end OF the wharf is becom-
ing very popular, and many people from
San Diego make daily excursions to the
wharf to angle for yeilowtail and other
gamey specimens of the finny tribe.
