Village Fathers Con-

Means.
Very Good Location Proposed
sNor the Psrk-PIaDs Have Already
hseen secured From Mr. Frank
ain Brett, OF BOston-NOtes.

For some time past the Red Jacket vii
Gage fathers, and particularly President
Vivian, have been considering the ways
aud means OF identifying the public
square near the Red Jacket school house.
The land in question covers an area 270
Eeet on one side and 10 on the other,
and is bound by three streets, Seventh.
Eighth and Elm. The land belongs to
the Calumet and Hecla company, but
President Agassiz very willingly asseDted

terViewed on the subject by some OF the
council when he was here on bis last visit
President Vivian communicated with
Franklin Brett, landscape architect Of
Session and a brother OF Henry Brett,
land agent OF the Calumet and Hecia
company. Mr. Brett sent three sketches
-Ri how the land could be laid out, aud he
also sent some interesting data in regard
20 the matter.
Nr. Brett has furnished similar plans
Tor Marquette people and is in position
20 give facts and figures on the matter.
Eeestinates that $500 would cover the
cost OF plants, transportation and plant
ing, but, with the data he has at present,
he is unable 20 give an estimate as to the
grading of the lawns or the construction
of the walks.
His plans suggest simple treatment of
che ground-an o, en- lawn surrounded by
plantations, few secluded hooks, an
arbor made of rustic wood. with pro-
vision for band stand and seats placed
conveniently and so as to command
pleasing views through the park. The
parcel of land is so small that nothing
elaborate is proposed.
The plants and trees called for in the
plans are all nursery grown and with !
proper care in planting and after-care
there would be no question as to their
thTiying. The walks could be made of |
such crushed stone as can be had at the |
mines and there would probably be no |
trouble in having the lawns in good con-
1ition after a couple of years

Winning Laurels.

That the people of Ocala fully
appreciate good eyesight is a fact
patent to everyone who takes
time to visit DR.. Mahony, who
has moved his office to Condon's
music store next door to the post
office. The doctor has been here
but a short time, yet his pleasant
office is daily crowded by persons
desiring to have their eyes tested
by the renowned scientist, and
appointments are made for every
hour for days n advance. He
makes a thorough scientific test
Of the eyes and then makes or ad-
iusts glasses adapted to the relief
Of whatever condition may exist.
Many of the most prominent
ladies and gentlemen of this city
and Marion county have had ac-
curate and careful tests made,
and after being fitted with glasses
suited to the peculiar condition Of
their eyes, have regalned a clear
and perfect vision not before en-
joyed for many years. Hence it
is that the doctors office is a
popular resort. Some persons
might wonder why one of such
skill and ability should leave his
office to come here. 1t may be
stated that the doctors visit here
at this time is the realization Of a
long cherished plan to spend the
winter months in Ocala and other
places in Florida. As there is nc
one in this city who adjusts
glasses on scientific principles, il
would be well to have your eyes
examined and glasses fitted while
the doctor is here. All eXamina
tons are free.

doors of these places were open,
through his fault, and if they lad
been locked it would have seemed
that some one had charge of the
Office.
Our magistrates seem to be
taking more interest in their du-
ties, and it is to be hoped that our
county commissioners will in
struct their attorney to meet with
the magistrates whenever they
meet and give them all possible
aid, and that each citizen of Ma
rion county will feel that the
county's business is, in a manner,
his business, and when he votes
to hire men to attend to this busi-
ness, let him vote as if he was hir-
ing men to attend to his own ind1-
vidual business. Not let senti-
ment control him, but merit and
business capacity, then our bust
ness will be attended TO economi-
cally and in a businesslike man.

The entertainment that took
place at Elma Hail Thanksgiving
evening was 4 success in every re-
spect. Miss Elma Saylors, our
school teacher, was at the head
OF it and she deserves great credit
for her untiring efforts in drilling
her pupils and others in the vari-
Gus parts Of the program, which
were given without a chance for
criticism. To speak Of each part
separately would fill too much
space as there were recitations,
tableaus, duets, trios, songs and
a medley. The song, dads
millionaire, in costume, was very
funny. George Young taking the

in the ENTERTAINMENT, besides
those already named, were the
Misses Irene and Viola Wallace,

Stella Bennett and last but not
least, Little Bertha Strunk, who
sang and recited in her usual clear
and distinct manner. At the
close the Rev. 2. J. Reeves made

TWO SUCCESSFUL RoBeERIEs.
Another One Attempted, But Nothing
Was Stolen.

At about IL O'Clock this morning
someone broke into the house of an old
Chinaman, by the name of Let, who
has a vegetable garden at the foot of
Washington street, on the north side of
the o. R. & N. track, and stole about
500 in money. No one was around the
place at the time of the robbery, and as
the officers have very poor grounds to
work on, it is doubtful if the mis-
creant will be brought to justice.
Another attempt at burglary was
made last night, the ecene of this being
the Diamond Flour Mills. An effort
was made to force the lock on the front
door, after which failure the robber
broke hole in the Office window large
enough to reach through and unfasten
the catch, when he raised the window
and entered. All the money and valua-
bles were in the safe, and as yet moth.
ing has been missed.
Another robbery was committed in
the Farmers Hotel yesterday afternoon.
Someone got into the room of Mr.. Co
bart, engineer at the mill, and took a
pair OF shoes and some other articles OF
clothing.
1t is a calamity that the burglar, or
burglars, who are committing all these
robberies cannot be caught. They are
very smooth and succeed in evading the
authorities, leaving no clue to their
identity. However, no stone will be
left unturned by the police force in the
way of ridding the town of such pests.
| There is one thing that our city lacks,
and that is sufficient police force at
night. 1t is impossible for a single
man to take care of a town of the mag
nitude of this, and as gang of thieves
seems to be operating successfully at
present, another night-watchman should
be put on by all means.
