The annual meeting of the confed-

Ocala on Monday. Hon. c. NJ. Brown,
of Miami, was to have welcomed
them to Ocala, where he resided so
long previous to coming to this city,
but owing to the fact that the date of
the annual meeting fell on the same
day that Mr.. Brown had arranged to
engage in business here, made it i'm
possible for him to 60 to Ocsla. 1t
was disappointment to him as much
as to the veterans and the people of
Ocala, and he very much regrets that
he was unable to attend the reunion.

Only Makes a Bad Matter Worse.

Perhaps you have never thought of
it but the fact must be apparent to
every one that constipation is caused
by lack of water in the symstem,
and the use of drastic cathartics like
the old fashioned pills only makes a
bad matter worse. Chamberla1n's
Stomach and Diver tablets are much
more mild and gentle in their effect,
and when the proper dose is taken
their action is so natural that one

GUARDING THIRD-RAIL.
Company Net Required to Protect
 Trsspassers From 1t.

| Hartford, Nov 23.--Judge John M. Thayer has sustained the demurrer te the complaint in the suit of Patrick J. Powers, administrator, against the New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Go. MT Powers sued to re- cover damages, his young son having been killed on the third rail tracks a short distance west of Flower street during the past summer It was aI- legged that, the third rail being high ly dangerous agency, it was the duty of the railroad company to protect it from the public. The railroad company, in it's demurrer, said that the boy was a trespasser on its property and that 1t owed him no duty in the way of pro- lection. In sustaining the demurrer Judge Thayer says:
 Assuming that the third rail charged with electricity was very dangerous appliance, used by the defendant in it's business upon its own property, the defendant was not bound to so protect it that the intestate could not under any circumstances fall upon it in stumbling. To make the complaint good facts must be alleged to show that in failing to protect 1t the defend ant neglected a duty in this respect which it owed to the intestate and that his death was caused by this ne gligence. The complaint fails to coh1e up to this requirement.. It does not appear that the intestate's death was in any way due to the defendants failure to fence it's track. So far as appears from the complaint the intes- tate may have stumbled and fallen from car upon which he was being transported and crushed his skull by contact with. the rail, or he may have been killed by the electric current alter the contact.'

REFUSED A LICENSE.
Commmissioner Walter Returned
 Dunphy's Check for $450.

Christopher Dunphy has been re- fused renewal of his liquor license at 930 Bank street, and the probability is that a license will not be issued for that place for the coming year. The circumstances of the refusal are some what singular, as there was no re monstrance to his application.
 Yesterday afternoon Mir Dunphy ap, peared before the commissioners with his cheek for $450 for his license. Upon examining the application Con- missioner Walter found that the ap- plicant had been convicted of having violated the liquor laws, and therefore he required certificate from the court. When he was informed of this he threw down on the table paper which was found to be the required certificate. His check he meanwhile had handed oyer.
 He was informed that he would have to pay 50 cents more to have the cer- tificate recorded by the clerk of the superior court i'll New Haven. This information he did not seem to relish, but he placed his hands upon the table and leaned over. and when MT Walter took up the application a few moments later he found 5O-cent piece in it. Either Liquor Prosecuting Agen, Pierce or one of the county commis- sioners remarked, "Oh, here it is," and thereupon MT Dunphy said, "Yes, there it is, and that's all you're going to get" The remark caused a sensa- tion MT Walter took up the appllca, tion and certificate, placed them aside, gave MT Dunphy his check and told him that his application was refused and he could have year to think over what he had said. Mir Dunphy there upon left the room. The technical grounds upon which the application, was refused were that he is an unfit person to conduct saloon.
