EARLY EVENING FIRE.
MeDHRy's Stables and Fine Vehicles
Burned-Firs Witnessed BY Big
Crowd

Last night about half past seven a
fire alarm was turned in and it was
sOOn discovered that the livery and
sale stables belonging to J. d. Me-
Duffy, one of the must prosperous
cOlored men Ia the city, were in
flames, and the buildings were so
crowded with hay and other irfism-
mable material. that it was impossible
to save them.
The fire department soon saw the
futility Of all efforts in this direction
and turned its attention to the pre-
ventiOn of the spread of the flames
to adjacent buildings, which, several
times narrowly escaped ignition, and
if the same had not been prevented
Ocala might have had a Jacksonville
cOnfiagratiOn. For many minutes
things bore very threatening and
dubious aspect.
The owner Of the stables happened
to be present when the fire broke out
and says it caught between the walls
and could not possibly have been set
on fire by any individual and he at
tributes it to some other agency.
When he first saw the fire he says,
like Elijah's Cloud, it was mo bigger
than a mans, hand" but almost
quicker than it takes to tell it, the
building, from one end to the other,
was sheet Of flame.
Fortunately all the horses were
saved and few of the vehicles that
are used for street and ordinary SER
vice.
All the finer vehicles, including the
harness, furnishings aud trappings,
were all consumed.
About $500 had recently been invest
ed in new vehicles. The loss in hay,
oats, etc, was also heavy.
The insurance is $1,000 and the loss,
outside of the insured property, is
estimated at 1000.

Ladies' Cemetery Association.

Six months ago the above named
association WAS organized and was
done so owing to the neglected cOndi-
ton of the GENE terry. Constant COM
plants were being made about the
COWS, hogs aud other animals destroy
iug the flowers and plants and root
ing up the graves, so the ladies decid-
ed to take things in charge and form
themselves into an association for the
purpose of keeping the cemetery in
better condition.
Mr.. John Nelson, al experienced
landscape gardider, has been regular
ly employed for the past six months
and every plot in the cemetery has
been well cared for. The fences and
gates have been repaired, thus keep
ing out the animals, sidewalks and
driveways have been made and the
cemetery put in an excellent cOndi-
ton and thanks to the splendid efforts
of these ladies the cemetery is hardly
recognizable as the same one of some
six months past.
This organization met yesterday af-
ternOOn for tn e purpose of electing OFF,
GERS for the next six months. If not
encouraged by the stockholders of
Greenwood Cemetery theIladies AssO-
citation will be forced to disband as
they will not have the funds neces'
sary to carry on the work. This
would be matter of regret to every
one who has loved ones buried in
Greenwood and We hope that the en-
terprise shown by these ladies will
make such an appeal to the stOckhOld-
ers that they will help the Organiza-
ton TO become permanent one.

The Tampa Tribune on TsIisfsrro.

The campaign of Senator Tsliaferro
was dignified, open and truthful. He
did not go upon the stump until long
after Mr.. Stockton had flooded the
state with his utterances of abuse.
He was busy at Washington, attend
ing the interests of his constituents.
When he did come here and begin the
battle thus precipitated upon him, he
was not long in repelling the assault
made upon his record, and, wherever
the two men appeared on the same
platform, Mr.. Stockton lost votes as
rapidly as Mr.. TalisferrO gained them.
Up to the very last week of the CAM
paign, Senator TaliaferrO had with
held from the public evidence which
be had in his possession which placed
the so.called stigma Of Flsgerism
where it justly belOnged-upOn the
escutcheon of bis veDOmous opponent.
1t had been his purpose not to use 1t
at all-but at the last rally here in
Tampa, when Mr.. StOckton's torrents
of abuse an insinuatiOn had become
too strong and too exasperating for
the tolerance of the most mild-man-
nered of men, the senator felt justified
in producing the letters which con-
victed his opponent of the very charge
which he had been for months hurl-
ing at himself, and it was with crush
ing force, that having read the ais
closures to the assembled democrats,
