of this place, now holds the responsible

The concert and dance which was held
last Friday night, having been postponed
from Thursday night on account of bad
weather, was not largely attended, the
proceeds of the evening amounting to
only eleven or twelve dollars, from which
had TO be deducted a charge of So 10 for
the use of the hall. The concert lasted a
little over an hour, when the members of
the orchestra played for about two hours
for dance.
The illness of Col. G. p. Horton, one of
the leading members of the CanaveraI
club, who was taken with rheumatism
at the north just as he was about to start
for this place, has rather upset the care
fully laid plans of Manager Bast, of that
club, who expected to be entertaining
quite a number of the members by this
time. The visitors generally wait for
Colonel Horton to arrive before putting
in their appearance. Meanwhile the
manager and his staff have very little to
do but to look after detail work. We
hope to see Colonel Horton and his com
panions arrive here at an early date.
We advise him another season To leave
for Indian river a little earlier and per-
haps the northern climate will not secure
such decided hold on him.

turpentine camp south of town, mention
of which was made in THE STAR OF last

and put in Jail. He certainly evaded his

him to stay his time OUT SIAfAonOrable

from such confinement looked so dear TO
him that he could not resist the tempta-
ton to try for it.
