COMMISSIONERS PROCEEDINGS
Yesterdays Meeting was Another Good

cussion on the collecting of H.
cense tax.
Allen thought that half of the
merchants of the county did not
pay this tax.
Mcleod thought that, accord
ing to Judge Calls decision on
the Jacksonville occupation tax,
it could not be collected, but Mr..
Long soon set Mcleod right by
pointing out that Judge Calls
decision had no such bearing.
On motion of Long, it was re-
solved that after January l, 1900,
one or more persons will be ap-
pointed to find out what persons,
firms or corporations are dong
business without a license, and
such persons, ETC., be reported to
the tax collector, who will report
those names to the grand jury.
The tax books were approved. Z.
Report of w. j. Chambers, G..
B. Reddlck and w. NJ. Glst, the
committee on the Mcintosh and
Reddick road, was received and
accepted.
Much discussion followed OH
the extension of the hard roads.
First, Mr.. Long moved that
five miles on each of the hard
roads be determined on, and if
any road money was left, to use
it pro rata on further work.
Mcleod amended this by max
ing it seven miles, which was re-
duced to six miles.
Then came the road overseer
question, which was finally fixed
at one for Ocala; two for district
No.-2 or Longs; cne for district
No. 8, or Liodell's; two for dis
trlct No. 4, or Morgan's; two for
district No. 5, or Aliens. The
Ocala and Fort Games road
makes the dividing line of the
two sections in the 4th district.
Applicants for the above must
live in the district IN which they
apply.
Bids will also be received until
the first meeting in January,
1900, for ferrymen at Sharp's,
Grahamvllle, Moss Bluff and
Stokes.
Ferries must be opened from
sunrise to s O'Clock p. m. Legal
rates are to be collected after
sunset by the ferrymeu.
Owing to the long hours Allen
Rogers labored on the new
Blitchton road-from a. m. to

THROWN FROM HER BICYCLE.
Little Nellie Ndann's Narrow Escape
From Being Killed.

Nellie Mann, Is years old, living a No.
us Oglethorpe avenue west, while riding
tandem with another little girl on a safety
bicycle. collded with a bicycle ridden by
William Henry, colored at Bull street
and Oglethorpe avenue, about 6 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon, and narrowly escap-
ed being killed. As ii was, she was
thrown headforemost on the pavement, an
ugly cash was cut in her head and she
was considerably bruised
The two girls were coming up Ogle-
thorpe avenue from Whitaker street and
started across Bull street, just as Henry
came down Bull and turned into Ogle-
thorpe avenue towards Drayton street.
the negro was on the right side of the
street and, seeing the girls coming To-
ward him, endeavored to get out of their
way and avoid a collision. They were
close by, and as he turned his wheel the
front wheel of the girls bicycle struck his
rear wheel.
The collision was witnessed by many peo-
pie, who were passing and as the young
girl was thrown from her wheel and struck
the pavement hardly one but thought she
had been killed. A dozen people ran to
her assistance. AS she was picked an the.
blood streamed from the wound in her
head. She was unconscious and apparent
ly very seriously injured She was car
ried to Knights Pharmacy at OglethOrpe
avenue and Drayton street, where Dr.
Harris was summoned and temporarily
dressed the wound taking severa. stitches
in the cash. She was then taken to her
home, her mother having arrived a few
moments after the accident occurred. 4
later examination showed that the in
juries, while not likely 10 be fatal. are
quite serious and 1T viii be some time be-
fore the wounds are healed
The accident was judged by those who
saw it not to have been the fault of the
cclored man. He was detained by the
police for a few moments and was then
released, 1t being apparent that he was
moi to blame for the collision.

the fire was to be started with a pile II

Objections to Sewage Outlet Expect

Mayor Myers and the members OF Coun-

wherever the outfet is located. This was
anticipated from the first. Naturally prop

age outlets in proximity TO their property
where it can be avoided and it was expect
ed that objections would be raised. There
is no special preference for Lamar creek.

DANGERS OF SHIP RUNNING.
Negro Drowned From YawI While
Trying to Board n Ship.

Negro Drowned From HaWl While
Trying to Board n Ship.
As the British steamship Swainby was
passing quarantine yesterday afternoon on
her way TO the city a boat was capsized
containing three men, two of whom repre-
sented somers & Winkler, butchers, and
the third man, an unknown negro. who
was drowned. Nick Brazel, who lives az
Congress and East Broad streets. and
Charles Dyer, who lives at East Broad
and Bay lane, were the other men in the
boat
The danger Of boarding vessels that dis
lance below the city has been recognized
for some time, and the news of an acct
dent was not altogether UNEXPECTED to
many. The competition between the
butchers for the first whack al incoming
steamers causes the runners TO 90 as far
down as possible. The further they so
the greater the danger. as they then have
10 board the vessels while they are going
at greater speed. A line is generally
thrown over, and the success of the feat
depends upon the occupants of the boar
grabbing it. II they fail, serious conse-
quences are apt to follow. Just how the
boot in this instance was overturned could
not be learned. Ii Is not understood thar
the men who were saved were thrown
overheard Ii was stated there were other
runners near quarantine for the purposa
