Good Times in Indiana.

Samuel P. Anthony returned
Saturday from his summers visit
to Muncie, Ind. Now Muncie is a
manufacturing town, and to the
question put by the Star reporter,
Glow are times up there::" re-
piled: "Good. Work is plenti-
full, factories running on full time,
no idle men. Farmers had good
crops and are getting good prices.
notably for wheat, beef, hogs
and potatoes. Money is plentiful,
and the banks are all complaining
because there are so few borrow
ers. Compared with a year ago
times have improved wonderfully
and there is certainly return
to prosperity"

Double the Anticipated Yield.

Geo. X. Robinson, the Marion
county cotton buyer for Dutton
& Co., Gainesville, is kept very
busy receiving the tieecy staple.
He said the crop in Marion
county was a great surprise, it
will be fully double the first esti-
mates. So far he has bought
over 10000 pounds from points
which were shipped direct to
Gainesville, while the receipts
at his Ocala warehouse are grea-
ter than he can ship from day to
day. He had phone message
today to go to Kendrick and ship
q car from that point.

Fausett is something of a hog
raiser and fattener. Last sea-

adjoining his mill and from the
yield fattened so hogs, every one
of which he sold across his butch

would cause a thrifty merchant
of Holland to smile a year of
financial pleasure.
But Fausett is here to stay.
He has told his story of success
so modestly, yet so satisfactorily,
that five years of pleased GUS
toners, multiplying at compound
interest, continue to increase as he
enjoys his peaceful slumbers and
from present indications Will con-
tinue to do so for many years to
come.

A New Phosphate Plant.

Captain Whaley, the able and
genial knight of the trowel, re-
turned Saturday from Elliston
in Citrus county, four miles
southeast Of Dunnellon, where
for the past month, he has cased
in brick, the boilers which are to
mark the spot to constitute q
new phosphate plant for G. J.
Clements, one of the most sue
cessful phosphate miners in the
business. Captain Whaley says
strange to say, Mr.. Clements
sunk several shafts right on the
ground, out of which the Marion
Phosphate Co., mined all the
bOulders some time back. He
sank them to depth of 90 feet
and through a solid deposit of
very high grade phosphate, the
sight of which convirces Captain
Whaley that Mr.. Clements has a
fortune in sight, and which he
certainly will dig out of those
pits in time, Notwithstanding
the low price of phosphate rock
The Star congratulates Mr.
Clements on his rich strike. Mr.
Clements also built a coy home
at his new mines. and Ocala II

ence OF very interesting family
which the Star greatly regrets.

\. A. FAUSETT.
Great Oaks From Little AcOrns Grow:
Some Trade From Little
Fausetts Flow.

1t is pleasure to meet a man
that is in love with his business
and turns clean cut business fig
ures on his ledger from month to
month, so that at the end of the
year his ledger, when balanced,
shows profits On the right side of
the Indicator.
Such man the Star reporter
had the pleasure of meeting last
week on Exposition street in the
person of HI. A. Fausett, the
west end merchant, whose honor
able business record during the
past five years has made his
name household word through
out Marion county. Few people
in the county who during those
years have not seen, commune
Gated with, or done more or less
business with this really pleasant
and capable business man.
His career since he located on
Exposition street illustrates the
old adage that "honesty is the
best policy" and If laid down as
guide, with fair business qualifi-
cations, to adjust itself to COM
mercial environments, success is
assured.
Mr.. Fausett's capital when he
opened the doors of this Exposi-
tion street store five years ago was
limited but believing he saw
a future in that location for the
sale of general merchandise, he
began with q brave heart and
resolute determination to succeed,
covenanting with himself to do
unto others as he would have
them do unto him. This ha S been
his motto and day by day and
month by month as the years
came and went he has adhered to
them, trade has grown, custom
ers increased and multiplied and
his stock from his profits has kept
pace with the rest of the business,
until now no one who caters to
the country trade carries a better
assorted stock of dry goods and
groceries, buys them at closer
margins from the wholesaler and
manufacturer, nor turns them
over to his customers at a more
modest margin of profit, than
does Fausett, because, with his
economical style of living and the
industry he displays in the man
agement and conducting of his
business, his expenses are small,
owning his own store room, with
a cozy home adjacent. All these
things have been learned by his
customers, who appreciate, their
worth to them as consumers and
purchasers of goods.
Mr.. Fausett is a wide awake,
progressive young man, whose
business eye sees clearly, whose
judgment wisely discerns. AS a
result of these requisite CONNER.

and last fall erected one with

Although late in getting tc
work, he, by purchase and gin
ming for others, cleaned up 21s
bales of the tleecy staple. This
season he did not oil gin before
the 18th of September, but for The
remainder of the month he turned
out 50 bales.

Autograph Fiends.

The author of "Chats With Celebri-
ties" Mr.. Guild, says of the demand
upon Longfellow for his autograph:
I remember one very pleasant party
at the poets dinner table, at which Nj.
Monti, Professor E. N. Horsford and
myself were present, when Mr.. Long
fellow related a number Of amusing
anecdotes respecting applications that
were made to him for autographs. He
was very kind to autograph seekers and
used to keep in a little box upon his
writing table a number of slips upon
which were written, "Yours very truly,
Henry W. Longfellow." One of these
would be sent to the applicant by e
member of his family to whom he passed
over their requests.
But the autograph seekers were not
always satisfied with a mere signature,
and he often sent a verse from one of
his poems signed with his name. The
most remarkable request, however, came
from a lady in Boston, who, the poet
said, sent him by express a package of
$50 blank visiting cards, with a letter
requesting that he would inscribe his
name OH each of them the next day, as
she , as to have u grand reception at
which IA number Of, literary people
would be present, and she wished to

THE SQUIRRELS IN THE OAK.

How They Kept House and Got Their
Provisions.
NY favorite boarders in the oak were
the gray squirrels. The boys knew their
hole from the woodpeckers' at a glance,
for it was in the living trunk Of the
tree, and the red brown margin always
showed where their powerful teeth had
been cutting away the bark that threat
ened to grow in and close them up. I
have oftened wondered how the wood
peckers knew that it would imprison
them, and that they must put up with
the dead limb.
AS for the grays. they were not afraid
to live in the heart Of the oak, and what
stores of nuts, harvested in the hickories
on the hill, they did manage to ''tote"
up there. There must have been a peck
at least when I ruthlessly chopped into
the hollow with a sharp Ratchet and
captured a fine brood of young one that
were soon tanned into graceful and at
~fectionate pets.
The old father and mother we did not
want, even if we could have caught
them, because they are fierce and un-
tamable IN captivity.
The abduction of their pretty chill.
dren did not seem to weigh much on
their minds. They gave no sign of the
poignant grief, not to be comforted,
that l have seen, for instance, in blue
birds whose nest had been despoiled,
but refitted their den as snugly as be-
fore and raised another family.
When my squirrels went harvesting,
one of them first held his head in the
mouth of the hole for half a minute to
see if the coas was clear. Presently out
he whisked and stopped again to make
sure, while his mate followed. Then
Mr.. Squirrel gave a rasping, long drawn
bark of defiance, which must have filled
his lady's heart with admiration for
his boldness and with apprehension lest
some unwary creature should come
within reach of her lords anger.
Then-if you didn't betray yourself
and send both scampering in widest
fright back to the hole-after playing
hide and seek for a few moments they
ran in single file out to the topmost
twigs of a great bough, gained a branch
of the neighboring bare walnut and,
crossing to its farther side, made a des-
perate flying leap into the top of a
young hickory. Running half way down
this, they used q succession Of dogwoOds
and oak saplings until they had reached
the grove of tall, straight hickories on
the hill, an eighth of a mile from their
hole in the oak. Come Oh them sudden
~ now if you would care to see fast
time made over this queer course and
some record breaking leaps that fairly
take away ones breath. -Scribner's

A SONG.

Bring me the juice of the honey fruit
The large, translucent, amber hued.
Rare grapes Of southern isles, to suit
The luxury that fills my mood.
And bring me only such as grew
Where fairest maidens tend the bowers,
And only fed by rain and dew
Which first had bathed a bank of flowers.
They must have hung on spicy trees
In airs of far enchanted wales,
And all night heard the ecstasies
OF noble throated nightingales.
So that the virtues which belong
To flowers may therein tasted be,
And that which hath been thrilled with
song
May give 9 thrill Of song to me.
For I would wake that string for thee
Which hath too long in silence huns,
And sweeter than all else should be
The So, which in thy praise is sung.
