tiy u straight line across the country
where II is comparatively level, and
avoiding the sandhills. 1t Is proposed
TO make an excavation 200 feet wide on

gins on the western coast about twenty
miles south of Cedar Key, in Levy
county. taking q northwesterly course
through Marion county to Orange AXE.

When the court house bell struck 0
o'clock last night there was more noise
to the square inch in front of the Trib-
une building on Washington avenue
than that particularly lively portion
of the city's liveliest street possibly
ever before Witnessed. 1t was in the
shape of cheering, yelling, and whist
ling and was all caused by the an
nouncement of the result of the Trib-
une's amateur base ball club contest.
The Sliders won. For the past two
weeks the indications pointed to their
being the victors and yesterday they
had such a clean lead that they were
confident they would bear off the COW
eted first prize. Their friends and
hundreds of others who have followed
the contest with interest were on hand
to see the finish and when the an
nouncement came that the uniforms
were theirs they let their enthusiasm
loose In large chunks and for a time
there was an ear splitting burst of
noisy rejoicing.
