ICE FACTORY WORK .
AT A STAND STILL

The, deed for the old ice factory
property, which was expected to have
been here some days ago, having beer
delayed, it has been thought best tc
suspend operations until the deal is for.
maly closed, and no work has been
done since Saturday. The property was
purchased of the East Coast Electric
Light. Power and Ice company, of
which the late Joseph jefferson was
president, and which has its head
quarters at Newark, N. j. The yearly
meeting Of directors took place Monday
and all necessary formalites are be-
lieved to have been accomplished at
that time.
The material is on the spot for the
new building and Contractor Brewer
expected to have had the framing up
and the roof on by now. The stock
holders of the new company are anxious
for the work to proceed and hope to
have force of men busy again the last
of this week.

While here Mr.. Parrot met Chief
Engineer j. c. Meredith and proceeded

bridge builders who submitted the bids
returned yesterday morning on board
the steamer Biscayne from visit to
Long Key channel, where they made
soundings on which the bids were based
The bid which seemed most favorable
was taken under consideration by Mr..
Parrott and he will decide the matter
within a few days.

First Step in Drainage.

The first step in the great Everglades
drainage scheme naugurated by Gov
ernor Broward has been taken and the
Board of Trustees of the Internal I'm
prOvement Fund has ordered a p,elim-
nary survey to be made from some
point on the st. Lucie River in as d.
rect route as practical to Lake Okee-
chobee. Our county surveyor. j.. O..
Fries, c. f., has been designated to
make the survey, and from his well
known ability, skill and experience the
work will be done so thoroughly that
his report will establish the feasibility
of the plan or show its impracticabil-
ity. The people are to be congratula-
ted upon securing the services of so
complete and reliable civil engineer. -

THIEVES AT WORK
TUESDAY NIGHT

Fort Pierce is as a rule free from
thievcry, but exceptions to the rule
took place Tuesday night, when some
one broke through the back window of
p. p. Cobb's store and entering, alb
stracting from the money drawers all
the change which had been left there.
The amount of money secured is not
exactly known, but Is estimated at from
six to eight dollars. A suit of clothes
was also taken. Nothing is known as to
the identity of the thief. Tracks of a
barefoot person were seen, but no clue
has been established. Isaac Robinson,
colored, was locked up Wednesday night
on suspicion, but was released the fol-
lowing morning.
The same night l.. l.. Cartons mar
ket was entered, the thief cutting tho
wire screen on the window over the desk
and unlocking the window. The articles
stolen were Of small value, consisting
of some canned goods, soap, etc., and
Mr.. Carlton is puzzled to know their OBJ
ject. 1t is thought probable that the
housebreakers were frightened off be-
fore anything of value could be taken.
1t is to be hoped that this kind of
business will not be again attempted.
Should Fort Pierce again be annoyed in
this matter she might "get metropoli-
tam to the extent of getting night

ANDREWS IS
ON COUNCIL
Elected at Meeting tuesday Night
to Succeed O'Brien.
TOWN DONATES LOTS
Gives the County Choice Of any lot Owned
by the Town as a Permanent
County Site.

The regular meeting of the town
council was held Tuesday evening in
the council chamber, President Fee
presiding.
The treasurer submitted his report,
which showed that there is now in the
funds of the town the sum of $640.77.
elected to fill the place made vacant by
the resignation of L. j. O'Brien. This
makes the council now composed of F.
H. Fee, president: A. C. Dittmar, A.
B. Lowry, j. II. Wynn and Jas. E.
Andrews.
Considerable discussion was provoked
by the ordinance requiring new build
ings to be fireproof. 1t is held that the
ordinance does not apply to unimportant
buildings and repairs, but that such
should be tireproof as far as possible.
A motion was passed to the effect
that an extra tax of five mills shall be
assessed and collected for the ensuing
year, the amount so raised to be used
as fund for fire protection.
The committee appointed by the
board of trade to confer with the coun-
Gil relative to the securing of site for
the county buildings made their request
known and asked that such steps as the
council could take would be most OPP
perfume. After some discussion of the
subject the council passed an order do
mating the choice of any of the property
held by the town for this purpose. As
far as we can learn the town owns the
land lying north of the school house and
extending to the canal. which lately
has acquired the misnomer of park"
They also own one lot just south Of
THE TRIBUNE Office and another west
of our Office.
The ordinance requiring b;cyclists to
carry lights after shutdown was dis
cussed, some claiming that it should be
to read after dusk, or after
certain hour. 1t was generally admit
ted that the ordinance is not designed
to be arbitrary, but to prevent reckless
riding in an uncertain light. 1t was
finally agreed to leave the matter to
the discretion of the marshal.

Will Return Here to Live.

1t Is rumored that Messrs. Merri-
wether and j. S. Bell and their fami-
lies, who recently migrated to South
ern California from this section, are
already anxious to return.
If one is earnestly in quest of things
with which to find fault they may be
found even in South Florida, but it is
little wonder that persons who have
been use to the sea breezes of the In
dian river country for years should find
the scorching winds, laden with alkali
dust, from the Majova desert a rather
unsatisfactory substitute. The arid
West. with its parched valleys and
wthcred vegetation in summertime, is
a spectacle well calculated to incite a
keen appreciation of the copious and
frequent showers which never fail to
invigOrate the verdure and gladden. the
Indian river landscape.
Well may the inhabitant of the grand
Indian river country congratulate him
self upon the good fortune which he
enjoys in the blessings so abundantly
supplied by nature, and with feelings
Of sincere gratitude overlook the minor
obstacles which beset his path.

YOUNG LADIES' COLLEGE
St. Lucie County and The Tribune Not
the Only New Things.

St. Lucie county and The ST. LUCIE
COUNTY TRIBUNE are not the only new
things in Florida. There has been late
~ a revolution in state institutions OF
higher learning as result of the put
ting in operation of the Buchanan law by
which half dozen state schools were
abolished and the Florida University,
for young men, and the Florida State
College, for young women, established.
On last Saturday, Fred w. Kettle,
secretary to President A. A. Murphree,
Of the college for young women, at
Tallahassee, was in this city for the
purpose Of bringing to the attention Of
the parents of young ladies the many
advantages of this college and its en-
larged field of work under the new law.
The Florida Female college, being
maintained by the state, offers free tu-
ition in the usual collegiate courses, to
all young ladies of this state. The only
expense is board, which has been fixed
at $3.50 per month. There is extra
charge for tuition in the departments
Of music, art and domestic science.
President Murphree has selected a
good faculty as can be found in any
southern institution of it's kind. For
the department of music he has secured
the services, as director, of Miss Mad
cline Keipp, of the famous Lucy Cobb
college, Of Athens, Ca, and other de-
partments will be directed by profess
TORS of like efficiency.
The coming school year opens the
last Wednesday in September and
closes the last Wednesday in May, Civ.
inc StlldeYta oiUht and Ono-half school
months in the most healthful winter
climate in the state. The college build
ings are located upon a campus OF .fif-
teen acres on the crown Of hill just
to the west Of the city, fifteen minutes
