Warm Weather Rest and Comfort

There is a powder to be shaken
into the shoes called Aliens Foot
Ease, invented by Allen S. Ohm
sted, Leroy, N. Y, which drug
glsts and shoe dealers say is the
best thing they have ever sold to
cure swollen, burning, sore and
tender or aching feet. Some deal
ers claim that it makes tight or
new shoes feel easy. 1t certainly
will cure corns and bunions and
relieve instantly sweating, hot or
smarting feet. Aliens Foot
Ease costs only a quarter, and
the inventor will send a sample
free to any address.

A Tedious Delay

The following is of interest to
creditors of the lnsolvent national
banks of Ocala:
We learn from Receiver Sta
python that, having absolutely
closed the affairs of the Mer-
chants National Bank of Ocala,
with the exception of two cases
in the state supreme court, he
has resigned his office, to take
effect July 81, on which date Mr..
J. Frank Aldrich of Washington
will be appointed to succeed him.
Mr.. Aldrlch is gentleman
whose business it IS to close up
the fag ends Of insolvent national
banks of which the final settle
ment is unavoldably delayed by
litiga ton, AS is the case with the
Merchants National Bunk of
Ocala. He has possibly twenty
or thirty of such rec. iverships in
his hands and the expense of con-
tlnuing them is thus reduced to a
minimum.
Receiver Stapylton addressed
a strong petition to the supreme
court OF Florida, asking to have
his cases advanced on their dock
ct. alleging that over 625 credl-
tors are interested, that nothing
but these cases stand in the way
of a final closing Of the trust, and
which must otherwise be- indef-
nitely prolonged to the injury and
loss Of the creditors. The SUI
preme court, in it's wisdom or
otherwise, as to which the crrdi-
tors will probably have an orin-
ion, saw fit to deny this petition,
thus tying up the banks affairs
for probably three or four years.
AS to the final dividend it is
thought that it will range from
3 to per cent, according as
these supreme cases shall be de-
cided.
Parties Interested as creditors
of the First National Bank must
hereafter address the comptroller
of the currency, Washington, d.
c., and creditors of the Mcr-
chants National Bank, after the
3lst of July, must address Mr..
j. Frank AldrIch, receiver Mer-
chants National Bank of Ocala,
care Of comptroller Of the cur
rency, Washington, d. g.

PIE CROP PROSPECT

The report of the United States
department of agriculture for
the week ending July 18th, was
most encouraging for Florida.
While there has been some de-
ficiency in rainfall in some sec
lions of the state, making the
sweet potato crop backward,
there has nevertheless come AS
the result Of the scarclt y Of rain
a deal of good dry weather suit
able for cutting, storing and cur
ing tobacco.
Suwannee county IS the only
county from which an unfavora-
bic report comes concerning cot
ton, rust and shedding being com
planned of by some planters. The
corn crop IS the best in many
years.
We note from the report:
"Peas, velvet beans, cassava and
cane arc generally good. Citrus
trees have made u fine grow tn
and some trees are reported
nearly as large as before the
freeze of February. Groves in
southern counties are in splendid
condition and heavily fruitad
Peaches and pears are scarce
Melons arc plentiful. The pine
apple crop has been shipped.
Much activity prevails In setting
new slips, and rain is needed iD
southern counties to stimulate
growth. AS general thing the
week has been favorable, and
crop prospects are 'very Salts

What does 1t profit d woman if
she gam the whole world of
knOwledgn and lose her own
health? Young women students,
and school teachers, eager, am
bilious, and full Of energy, very
often neglect their health in the
struggle to gain education. They
eat insufficient food, and at irrcg-
ular hours, they allow Irregular
iJy of the wOmanly functions to
be established, and the result Is
that they become chronic invalids
with all their education practi-
cally worthless. There is a PLAIN
road back to health for such as
these, marked by the feet OF
thousands. 1t is the use Of Dr.
Plerce'S Golden Medical DiscoV-
cry for diseases OF the stomach
and digestive and nutritive or
gans, and Dr.. Pierce's Favoritr
Prescription for diseases of the
delicate organs of womanhood.
A cure SD certainly follows the
use of these remedies that out Of
hundreds of thousands who have
tried the treatment, ninety-eight
in every hundred have been per-
fcctly and permanently cured,
Constipation, With it's calamitous
consequences, which is a common
ailment of students, can be en-
tirely cured by the use Of DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.

From Our Young NarOOners

The fist was treated most roy
ally by its gentlemen friends
who came down to spend Sunday.
They brought the greatest va
riety and abundance OF good
things.
We had genuine, old fash
Toned cake Walk Monday night,
and the figures introduced were
varied and beautiful. Miss
Florrie Condor and Albert Miller
were the fortunate winners of the
prize-a watermelon.
Tuesday night we had another
dance. Mr.. Evans and Frank
Matthews furnished the music.
Misses Flosslc Dukes and
Alice Yonge, and Robert Mat
ttews and Lee Miller returned
home Yesterday.
Frank Matthews left this morn
ing, much to the regret Of all the
list. We all loved Frank, as he
was always so thoughtful and
obliging, and considered every
ones pleasure before his own.
Lee Cox also left this morning
and now we will be almost lost
without someone to plague us and
get off to perfection the little
yell, OH which he seems to have a
patent.
Misses Ethel Sinclair. aud Sa-
rah Agncw were pleasant callers
this morning.
There are three kodaks and
cameras among us, and il all the
negatives are developed .Ocala
will be flooded with some very in
tercstlng and amusing photo
graphs.
Imagine if possible the conster-
nation depicted i'm the faces of the
girls when they awakened this
morning to find that some one
had visited their hunks during
the night md left signs on their
faces that gave them the appear
ance of cork mlnstrcIs.
We will break camp in a day
or two and return to our homes,
but there will ever linger in our
hearts fond memories of our de-
visit.
The girls and the commanding
officers will ever have a warm |
spot in their hearts for the boys
who were so kind as to invite us
here, as they have left no stone
to make our happiness
and right we'll have
they succeeded. Their thought
fitness and unselfishness Is highly
by all.

A PLEASANT

All through their term of SER
vice, covering almost afull twelve
months under arms, Mr.. Jno. w.
Edwards has contributed gener-
ously and gratuitously to TIE
wants of the soldier boys of the
Goldsboro company. At every
camp where they pitched their
tents, even on Cuban soil, and
again on their return to Savannah,
he followed them with ample gifts
of cigars, tobacco, hams, barbe-
cue &c. &c.
1t was meet therefore, and
highly creditable, that the boys
should show their appreciation CT
his many kindnesses in some suit
able and substantial manner, and
this they have done. right geuer-
ously. They brought back with
them and presented to him in the
armory on Monday, a magnificent
cut glass Punch Bowl, handsomely
chased, and supplied with a beauti-
full sterling silver ladle, the handle
of which bears his monogram and
the monogram CT Co. B, and on
the inside of the ladle, which is
triple gold plated, is the following
inscription:

ELIJAH LANE KILLED.
Shot Through the Heart and Died
Instantly.

Instantly.
Daily Argus of Tuesday.
A negro boy named Wick, about
18 years of age, who lives with
his mother near Pikeville. was
before the cornor's jury this
morning charged with taking the
life of Elijah Lane, a white man
about 40 years of age. The jury
after hearing the evidence ren>
dered a verdict of Unsuitable
homicide and Wick was set free.
The evidence before the jury.
which was given by Wick and his
mother, says thatlast night about
II o'clock several men came up
in the yard where Wick lives and
demanded admittance, which was
refused. Threats were made by
the men to break the door down,
and they were trying to force an
entrance when Wick drew his
pistol and fred through the crack
of the door. Elijah Lane immedi-
ately fell to the ground, shot
through the heart, with his pistol
in his hand, while the rest cf the
crowd fed.
Wick says he did not know who
it was that he had killed. Lane
lay on the ground in the position
he had fallen until the arrival of
DIR, Thos, Hill, the coroner, who
was sent for early this morning.
It is thought that the men who
went to Vick's house last night
wished to avenge his action some
two weeks ago when he used his
knife on Mr., E. g.. Talton, cuts
ting him severely on the head and
stabbing him in one or two places.
This, however, is only a supposi-
tiop, and in the absence Of anys
thing more definite offers the
most plausible excuse for the
conduct of Lane and his COM
panions, whoever they we're.
OFFICIAL VERDICT.
We the jury having heard the
evidence agree to bring in the fol-
lowing verdict:
That Elijah Lane came to his
death from a pistol shot wound
through the right lung, by the
hands of Charlie Wick while de-
Tending the life of his mother and
himself-a justiiable homicide.
