TAYLOR WILL NOT STAY.

Will Not Conduct Lighthouse Point
Hotel Another Season.
1t Is not probable that Joseph e. Tay-
lor will conduct the hosiery at Light
house Point another season, as all the
property at the Point was leased yes
terday to j. G. Kerrigan, the real estate
agent, who will sub-let portions of it to
others.
Mr. Taylor said last evening that he
had given up the idea of conducting the
hotel another year, not only because 1t
was not likely that he could renew the
lease, but because of the rental which
was, he considered, too much for the
three months it was in use.
