for doing two years ago. Mr..
Walsh informs lis that the creditors
of the Prentice Brownstone Com
pany have practically completed a
deal whereby the Company will be
re-organized as the Monolith Quarry,
and will be operated by Fred. d.
Goddard for them. Mr. Walsh
secured an order from the Court
declaring null and void the tax
certificates issued against the
quarry, and commanding the re-
ceiver to pay to the town of Wash
burn $4,000 within sixty days.
The Northern Pacific people are
taking hold of matters rather
vigorously, and will have everything
down to fine point when the day Of
the sale is reached. Their engineers
and attorney have been at work here
for some time, and the matter of right
of way has been about definitely de
termined. The Citizens. Committee
have been doing some work, but
have not been able to make very
great Roadway, owing to delay in
reaching parties with whom they
must deal. There has been some
talk, to the effect that the Milwan-
kee and St. Paul railroad company
might be a bidder for the Battle
Axe at the sale. While the report
lacks confirmation, still it might be
an eye-opener to the citizens to cast
about and see if we cannot possibly
secure that railroad for Washburn.
The road needs shipping facilities at
the head of the lakes, and it would
be great achievement to have them
in here.

The tendency of the times
seems to lead us to the practical

following communication receiv-

OcaIa's New Race Track.

We stated In Tuesdays paper that
a tract of land had been secured for
the race track. This lot is an admira-
BILE one and is near the city limits, on
Exposition street.
The lot is so level and the soil 80
firm it is estimated that a track can
be built on it for less than $500.
1t is estimated that the cost of the
lot, fencing same, building grand
stand, capable of seating $500 or more
people, grading the track and finish
ing it in the most modern style, can
all be done for $500 or less.
1t is also suggested that tn old La
Criola cigar factory be purchased and
moved on to the race track lot for
permanent exposition building, with
the purpose in view Of having an an
nual county fair and capturing at one
time or another, if not permanently,
the state fair.
All these matters will be discussed
at the meeting in the council cham
Der tonight.
Come to the meeting, lend il your
aid and let US see that this enterprise,
which means much towards the
growth of the city, does not slip away
from us.
Remember the meeting will be at

night

and J. q. Ferguson.
Each one Wed with the other in

the kitchen department and it was
to their skill and judgment that the
arrangements were so nicely carried
out, viz: Mesdames r. McConathy,

Wilson, Frank Harris and Miss Me-
Clure.
The candy table was very beautiful
ly arranged and WAS the artistic work
of Mrs. L. II. Johnson, Mrs. Thomas

The beautiful feature of the even
ing's entertainment was the ''remtm
brance table, which contained arti-
cles contributed by former residents,
visitors and well wishers of Ocala,

Thanksgiving turkey stuffed with
currency OF the realm; fifty seven

Ocala generally for their patronage
and presence, which rendered the
occasion so profitable and delightful.
We are sorry that we have not
space to mention all of the names of

BILE at the hour of going to press to
ascertain the gross receipts, but it is
safe to say that it amounted to several
hundred dollars.
