Famous Plant HosteIry at Tampa Ia
In the Courts.
Tampa Fla, Nov. 25.-Mayor salo-
monson has attached the Tampa Bay
Hotel, with the aid OF a portion of
the police force, working under their
nominal authority as deputy sheriffs.
This was in the nature of an attach
ment to secure possession of the prop

just about the dinner hour. the guests
being seriously disconnected by the
action, and the whole affair quickly
assumed the size of the usual Tampa
sensation.
IN a short while Scott & Son had
made a $4,000 bond for the property
and were again in peaceful possession
OF the property, while the crowds con-
tinued TO toss verbal bouquets at May

hotel property had been purchased by

The lunatics are kept on an upper floor
of the Jail along with the other wom-

and loaf of bread for breakfast and
a loaf of bread and bowl of soup, con-
tanning about six ounces of meat, for

UNMARRIED throughout the year. 1t is
| recommended that some slight change
be made. this being possible. in the
opinion of the grand jury, without in
curing additional expense. The con-
dition of the Jail building generally is
good. The Court House needs no inn
proVement. The grand jury commends
the consideration which prompted the
placing of beds in the petit jury room
| for the use of jurors detained over
night
The principal public roads of the
county are in excellent condition, with
the exception OF some repair work,
which is now in progress.
The convict camps are in good con-
dition with the exception of the bed
ding in camps Nos. and 8, which is
filthy in the extreme. There is very
! little sickness in the camps. The
| county drains. bitches and waterways
are open and in good condition.
The public schools visited by the
grand jury are in a most satisfactory
condition. The work of the teachers is
thorough and the discipline is all that
could be desired.
While recognizing the humanitarian
interest of the court in it's charge, ad-
vising an investigation of the practi-
cability of the use of one or more
in each of the public school buildings
as places for physical recreation and
mental improvement for boys, as
partial remedy for street loafing, and
indorsing the suggestion of the court.
the grand jury is advised that the
| school authorities do not favorably
consider the plan and. do not deem it
feasible.
The members of this grand jury ac-
knowledge the clear exposition by the
court as to their duties. and have en-
deavored to discharge these duties to
the best of their ability. They also ac-

of the court officials.

circumference each year. He proved
this after an investigation extending
over several years, and we know now,
100 years later, that his deductions
were correct. The old yew at Hedsor
has trunk twenty-seven feet in di-
ameter, proving its great age, and it is
in f1ourishing, healthy condition now,
like its brother at Portugal.
Their years are few, though, COM
pared with those of the trees 1 had in
mind when l made my first assertion
that the statement printed about them
in scientific journal was incorrect. In
one chapter of his writings Humboldt
refers to gigantic boabab tree in
Central Africa as the oldest organic
monument in the world. This tree has
trunk Twenty-Five feet in diameter,
and Adamson, by a series of careful
measurements, demonstrated conclu-
sively that it. had lived for not less
than $3.50 years.
Still it is not the Oldest organic mon
ument in the world, as Humboldt de-
clared, for now Mexican scientists have
proved that huge cypress tree stand
ing in Chepultepec, with a trunk lis
feet and 10 inches in circumference. is
older that it, older, too by more than
1000 years-for it had been shown, as
conclusively as these things can be
SHOWN, that its age is about $3.50 years.
To become impressed with wonder over
this one has only to dwell on that
duration for little while in thought.
'Yte it is not so remarkable when
one stops for a moment to remember
that, given favorable conditions for its
growth and sustenance, the average
tree will never die of old age-its death
is merely an accident. Other younger
and more vigorous trees may spring up
near it. and perhaps rob it's roots of
their proper nourishment; insects may
kill it, foods or winds may sweep ii
away, or its roots may come in con-
tact with rock and become so gnarled
and twisted, because they have not
room to expand in their growth, that
they literally throttle the avenues Of
it's sustenance; but these are accidents.
If such things do not happen a tree
may live on for century after CEN
fury, still robust, still f1ourishing, shell
tering, with its widespread branches,
the men and women of age after age.

more important to us--that the king
might see YOU"
Slowly, the kings wife went back
to her seat before the mirror, and
sat there lingering and turning the
jeweled rouge pots in a deep study.
Deliver me your opinion of this,
Teboen?" she said, at last, to the
big raw-boned British woman who
was her nurse and also the female
majordomo of her household.
Teboen, after becoming delibera.
ton, replied that she thought rather
| favorably of the plan, that certainly

Then will we make ready without

! added as an afterthought. Il should

Another fash Of daring lighted Ran
dalin's eyes, though her mouth re-
manned quiet. "A good way to keep
them from thinking you a prisoner,
lady, Is to act like free woman" she
said. Il shall tell them that you are
going to the palace to see your hus-
band" Sowing her seed, she left it
to take root, and went away to con.
vince the head Of the grooms.
AS she had foretold, he was too I'M
certain regarding their position to
dare contest their order, little as he
liked it. In something less than an
hour, the FIVE women, fur-wrapped
and fianked by pages and soldiers,
were passing under the deep arch of
the New Gate into the great city
itself.
do you purpose to visit the palace

guards inquired with a respectful, IL

Blue Stockings Of To-day.

The last few years have seen mark
ed changes for the better in The blue
stocking" She has, after causing
much distress to her relatives anc
friends, come to the conclusion that
the "ologies' and pretty frocks are
after all, not so incompatible as al
one time they seemed, and that hei
learning, combined with a pleasing
outward seeming, carries far more
weight than it did when she wore
shapeles garments and neglected hel
couture.
The "blue stocking" is indeed Civ
ing up the "tailor-made" for festiv.
occasions, the severe tie and collar
and rigidly plain hat which was one
of her phases, and she has begun tc
revel with her more frivolous sister II
frills and furbelows, and hundred
pretty things which a comparatively
short period ago she would have felt
1t incumbent upon her to scorn, says
Woman's Life.
She Is acquiring taste for the
joys of suitable attire which marks
the we'll dressed woman, and she has
by no means made the pathway OF
learning easier for the rising genera
ton, whose parents will no longer
put stumbling blocks in the path now
that eccentricity and a sweet girl
graduate" may be things apart. All
mothers and the majority Of fathers
strongly object to seeing their daugh
tiers sacrifice looks to learning.

Turn then to the left"
They obeyed her, but their gay
chatter died on their lips. If the road
bore none of the responsiveness of the
shambles, it was still little more
cheerful than the graveyard. On
their right, an ice-stiffened marsh
reached to the great city wall, while
a remnant of the primeval beech for
est lay along their left, leafless, wind

| clustering fruit-trees, rose the towers
and gilded spires of the kings pal

AS they neared the arched gateway,

| icy hand had closed about her heart
The blood was ebbing from Elfgiva's

was forced to keep moistening her

bumped with steaming breath over

to greet such splendid ladies with a
profusion of salaams and a mouthful
Of pretty speeches that brought some
of the color back 10 Elfgiva's cheeks.
"Do not have me in contempt,

of some unsteadiness. Let me sharp

GoPHERs USED THEIR WITS.
Evolved Clever Scheme by Which
They Cot the Bread.


An Arizona friend of mine lately
told me this interesting incident
about the gophers that infested his
cabin when he was miner. The go
piers ate up his bread. He could
not hide it from them nor put 1t be-
yond their reach.
Finally he betthought him to stick
his loaf on the end Of long iron
poker that he had and then stand ur
the poker in the middle Of his floor,
Still when he came back to his cabin
he would find his loaf eaten full Of
holes. One day, having nothing &c
do, he concluded to watch and sec
how the gophers reached the bread.
and this was what he saw:
The animals climbed up the side q
his log cabin, ran along one Of the
logs to point opposite the bread
and then sprang out sidewise toward
the loaf, which each one struck, but
upon which only one seemed able t.
to effect Judgement. Then this one
would cling to the loaf and act as {
stop to his fellows when they triec
a second time, his body affordint
them the barrier they required. My
friend felt sure that this leader DELHI
erately and consciously aided the
others in securing a footing on the
loaf.-OutinS.

- complete was her preoccupation
THAI she disregarded another thing
the highway along which they were
travelling. 1t was Randalin who first
awoke to a consciousness that the
noise of the rabble had become very
faint behind them, that no sounds at
all broke the stiffness ahead of them,
that the uneven weed-grown path they
were treading was very different from
the smooth hardness Of tho Waiting
street. For the first time, she spoke
to the son of Lodbrok, who had silent
ly taken his place at her side.
This is not the Waiting Street!
Yet we have not turned. Where
are we?"
Rothgar gnawed at his heavy mus
tache as though the answer were daft
ticult to frame.
You are still on the Waiting
Street." he said. st is only that this

Stung with fear, Elfgiva tried to
snatch the lines from him. Il am not

AS cliff stands against the tretting
of waves, his grasp stood against
hers; and his voice was as immovable
as his hand.
"The palace where the king is" he
said, is the palace for a queen"
At first it either seemed that she
would scratch out his eyes or throw
herself from her saddle. But in the
end she did neither, for a sense Of her
helplessness turned her faint. To one
who has always ruled undisputed
there is something benumbing in the
first collision with the pitiless hand of

to Dunstans monkish colony, was
scarcely sufficient to make palace OF
the rambling rookery which a wal
separated from the West Minister. IN
is the waste-place of ruins" Elfgiva
said on the day Of their arrival.
To-day, a fortnight later, Randaliu
repeated the comment with des
pondent addition. The king will
never come to this rubbish heap
Here we are buried no less than IL we
lay in a mound. 1t is not likely that
we shall get news by an easier way
than by going to him."
Straining her eyes out over the
mist-robed river, she tried for the
thousandth time to think of some bait
alluring enough to tempt Elfgiva to
that point of daring. 81 will try once
more to entice her to the palace, SO
that can get tidings," she determin'
ed. II wonder what kind OF humor
she Is in
1t was not necessary to go far to
obtain a hint as to that. Even as sh2
entered the passage, she heard the
scramble of scurryjng feet. and then
screams and the thud of blows.
Now it is heard that she is not sulk-
ing among her cushions" Randalin
observed. when her temper Is up
she is little afraid of doing things
which she else would not dare do"
According to that her expectations
should have mounted high. as she
drew aside the door curtain. for the
Lzdy of Northampton was far from
sulking. Partially disrobed. as she
had sprung up from before her mir
ror, she was holding the luckless
Dearwyn with one hand while with
the other she administered pitiless
punishment from a long club-like
candle which she had snatched from
Its holder.
Come not betwixt, or l will treat
you in q like manner" the mistress
painted. ...
But the Valkyria's fear Of Elfgiva's
tongue did not extend to Elfgiva's
hands. Catching the dimpled wrists,
she held them off with perfect cool
ness, as she said soothingly, Now
you tire yourself much. lady; and
you will tire yourself more II you
consent to the entertainment I came
hither to propose. l was thinking
how it might cause amusement to us
to ride into the city and see what
the goldsmiths have in their booths"
Elfgiva threw aside the candle to
come close and lay her hands upon
the girls breast. DO you think it
likely that I might fall in with the
king somewhere In the city,"
This was going bit faster than
Randalin had planned, and her breath
came quickly, but sho took the risk
and admitted 1t. II did hope that
it might happen tlAi se would see
