ARCADIANS ABROAD
Two Energetic Citizens Who are Away,
Praising Their Home Town.

Two Energetic Citizens Who are Always
Praising Their Home Town.
The Jacksonville Times Union of last
Friday had the following;
walter Graham. Of Arcadia, an erst-
while newspaper man, who has sought
other fields where fortune smiles with
a greater degree Of generosity, was in
the city yesterday, on his way from
New York, where he has been for some
time closing out deal for real estate
in DeSoto county. Mr., GraIs n has
made remarkable success in real es-
tate in that county, and is now num-
bered among the most successful men
Of his State. He left last night for
home, after pleasant meeting with a
number of his friends at the Aragon
Hotel.
John II. Treadwell. a prominent
attorney Of Arcadia, was in the city
yesterday and spent some time at the
Arsgon Hotel. Mr.. Treadwell has been
resident Of Arcadia for fifteen years,
and was there when the DeSoto county
boom first started. He has made re-
markable success, and has taken adj
vantage Of every opportunity which
the remarkable resources Of that coun-
ty offered. we have grown apace,
down there said MIR. Treadwell last
night, and we are hardly out Of the
kindergarten yet. IL you accept what
there is to come as a criterion

Owing TO a constantly increasing de-
mand for space in the exposition build

necessary.
All buildings and fences on the

FLORIDA GRAN GES

When In Good Condition Meeting with
Excellent Sales.
The Packer under New York date OF
Oct. IA, says:
Receipts Of Florida oranges and
grapefruit have been so meagre that
up to the present time a quotation has
hardly been established. So far both
oranges and grapefruit have arrived
very green. Weather conditions have
been somewhat adverse to the salts
factory handling Of the fruit as the
temperature has been too warm.
California oranges are now so very
high that Florida stock meets with ex-
cellent sale regardless OF its condition.
The receipts OF Florida oranges are
noT probably several hundred boxes
week. $50 to $500 is the range OF
values at the present time for good or
anges. Fruit that is we'll enough ma
tured without being taken through the
ripening process would sell readily at
handsome premium over these fig
ures. Grapefruit ranges in value from
two to"three dollars per box"

depth Of six feet of water at low tide
is really the only obstacle in the way
OF having deep water; for outside this
reef there is an abrupt fall to forty
feet depth and II an opening could be
dynamited through this coral reef Just
opposite the inlet the out-howing cur
rent would soon scour the sand to the
depth of the reef bottom, this doing
away with the necessity for dredging.
1T seems practicable to secure an
expert and sufficient dynamite to blow
an opening of one hundred feet width
and twenty to thirty feet depth in that
coral reef that lies across the present
inlet, and make a permanent deep en-
trance there.
concentrated action among the In
dian River people and a strong Pc
tition to Congressman Frank Clark
will probably prove successful in Sc
curing the services of the Government
engineers and including this import
ant inlet in the appropriation"

PORT ON INDIAN RIVER
Such a Harbor Might Tend to
Construction of Railway Across
State From Coast to Coast.

A matter Of some Importance is the
agita ton OF citizens of the Indian
River section for Improvements to he
made at st. Lucie inlet in order that
a harbor may be secured, and while
this subject so deeply appeals to resi-
dents of that region, it should also
prove interesting to people on this side
Of the State.
Should such harbor be made it
would offer inducement in the future
TO railway builders to run a line OF
road across the State, probably from
Tampa to the new port, with such
branches az may seem necessary to the
builders for profitable trade.
A railway travorsing the prop osed
route would quickly open a fertile
country, and would be the most direct
route for shipment Of phosphate, tim
Der and naval stores.

Christian EDasavor Convention.

The eleventh annual convention OF
ed the Polk and DeSoto Christian En-
deayor, district Of the Florida Union,
which was held Sept Goth to Oct lat.
was a signal success.
Winter Haven is a village rich in ma
lures gifts, which we're enjoyed to the
fullest extent By the delegates, of
whom there were a larger number than
for several years.
Missions was perhaps the strongest,
most enthusiastic feature OF the well
prepared program. There were ad-
dresses by President H. H. Golf, Of the
Presbyterian College, Eustis, and a
returned missionary teacher from
Africa. OF course a Baltimore dele
gate echoed for us. State President
NFinnie and Asst. Junior Supt. Miss
Peet, were present and served the con-
vention Loyalty and royalty.
In the opening session, greetings
were read from Treasurer Shaw, of
Boston, and eleven Of the twelve Of
ficers OF the State G. f. Union. The
PRESBYTERIAN church, in which all ses-
sions were held, was adorned with the
banners of the State Union and the
japanese Increase banner, the latter
receiving the most attention.
Four meals were served in the church
dining room, so there was no excuse
for unsociability.
Among the officers chosen for the in
suing year are some well-known work
ers. Rev. B. q. Durham, of Auburn
dale, our new president, was till re-
Gently the pastor of large Christian
church in New York city. and brings
experience from G. L. service both in
New York and Kansas. Rev. II. Keig-
win, Of Orlando, Presbyterian Mission
airy for Florida, commences his second
year as field secretary. The other
officers are Vice-Pres., Harley Morse,
Lakeland Junior Supt., Miss Mary B.
Palmer, Lakemont; Treasurer, Pres
colt Blood, Winter Haven, and Secre-
tary, Miss Grace Townsend, Avon Park.

PRAISE OF FLORIDA
But suggestions OF TIdiness, That Would
he Well to Follow.

But suggestions OF Tldiness, That Would
He Well to Follow.
New York Tobacco: The sandy
surface Of Florida is peculiarly adapt
ed by nature to readily take care Of the
great rainfall of this semi-tropical
gulf region. The soil takes in the rain
much as a sponge absorbs water, and
about as readily. In an hour or so af-
ter heavy downpour no trace of IL
can be seen. There are no muddy
streets in any city or village Of south
Florida, and there is rarely any dust
excerpts on paved streets. The moist
air, heavy dews and ability OF the soil
to retain moisture, together keep We ,.e-
tation in fiourishing state Of green
ness, and there is never any appear
ance of drought, with dried up fields
like the pasture lands OF Canada and
and the New England states in July
and August, when rain IS infrequent.
FLORIDA is ROBBED in green the year
round. 1t has not the close-shaven
clean-cropped surface so pleasing to
the traveller through the up-country
states. Indeed, it looks as IL a hsir.
cut would improve the general an.
pearance Of the peninsula, so rank and
prevalent are the weeds, and so gener-
al the jungle character of the woods
and river sections. Yes, and the viii
lagos and cities as we'll.
"But Florida is rapidly Sticking
up these days. 1t would be greatly
to the benefit OF the entire state il the
sensible methods Of many Of the tour
list states Of the north-Vermont. New
Hampshire and Maine, for instance
were copied, and there was a Sticking
up every year, together with the ad-
dition Of more comfortable accomo-
dation, and more pleasing efforts in the
line OF enjoyment for their crowd OF
visitors. Florida's great winter tour
list contingent probably outnumber
the summer crowd in any Of the resort
states of the north, and it is rapidly
increasing from year to year. Neat,
tidy cities, villages and surroundings,
good roads and creature comforts are
powers in winning favor, in bringing
the visitors back another year. accom-
panied by many of their friends"

BETTER MAIL SERVICE

Postal Authorities WIN Investigate Re-
quest for Railway Clerks.
That the effort to secure better mail
facilities on the Charlotte Harbor di-
vision Of the A. O. L., may result in
success, appears hopeful.
Petitions on this subject have been
forwarded from various places along
the line, and ]. L. Jones, of this city,
who wrote to Congressman Sparkman
concerning the matter, has received a
letter from him, stating that he had
taken up the question with the postal
authorities, and submitting an answer
from w. s. Shallenberger, Second As
sistant Postmaster General, who said
that the petition asking for the estab-
lislfment OF railway post Office service
on trains so and 40, between Tampa
and Fort Myers would be investigated
by the department at once.
1t is hoped that favorable action
will be taken, as 1t would be a conven-
fence and benefit to many persons.

AUDIENCE KISSED THE "CLANSMAN
Strenuous Time of Thomas Dixon
at Columbia, S. c., on Account
Of His Famous Play.

The appearance in Columbia, S. c.,
Of the "Clansman," Thomas Dixon's
new play which deals with the recon-
struction period under negro rule in
South Carolina, was the most largely
attended OF any that has been pre-
scented there in recent years.
The play was given last Saturday
night and that the large attendance
was not due to approval of the drama
was manifest by the Kissing of the au-
ditors throughout the Performance
This, however, was more especially
emphasized when at the end Of the
first scene in the third act, after scat
tering calls, the author made his ap-
pearance in front of the curtain.
Immediately there came Kisses from
all parts of the theatre mingled with
hand clapping and it was full two
minutes before Mr.. Dixon could pro-
coed The manner in which the au-
thor conducted himself in the face OF
the embarrassing situation made
friends for him. After referring pleas
antly to the fact that there had been
friendly criticism of his play, he told
OF his close ties in South Carolina.
He said he would give $1,000 to any
person who would point out an historic
cal inaccuracy in the play He is not
afraid Of the truth, he said, God or
dained the Southern white man to
teace the lessons Of Ayran supremacy"
