He offered his steamer to anybody who wanted it for 5000. IL was an enormous figure. quite beyond me But l made up my mind to get that steamer l converted every thing l had into cash, making a total with my savings of nearly S1,000. 1 found a friend who aided me with more. and the owner of the boat said he would wait for part. So within a week I stood on the deck of my own vessel It was the proudest moment of my l.fe when stood al the wheel and gave orders Never since then have experienced quite so keenly the thrill of triumph managed to work a pas sageway through the sandbar, and be gan freighting up and down the river. and in a few trips 1 had made enough to pay for the vessel From that time on my way was comparatively easy.

Mr.. BAYER IS
IN A MIDDLE
Cannot Find Accommodations for
Visitors to Bible Conference.
WANT TO
COME


The Mails Every Day Bring Increased
Inquiries for Accommodations and
Mr.. BaYer Wants those Having Room
10 Inform Him at Once.
Ferdinand Bayer, secretary of the
Winter Bible Conference, is in all
kinds of trouble.
A few days ago Mr. Bsyer placed a
card in The Sun stating that he was
receiving letters daily from every see
tion OF the United States requesting
him to recommend a boarding house,
with rates, for the Bible Conference
season., and asking that those who
could accommodate guests correspond
or confer with him at once. In reply
to this announcement he has had a
great many, but the letters are increas-
ing by every mail, and he is DESTROYS
of securing more quarters.
II declare do not know what we
are going to do with this crowd if we
cannot find people who will take
them," remarked Mr.. Bayer in refer
ring to the matter Thursday. The
chances are that we are going to have
a great mauy people, and II they can
not be accommodated they will leave
here Disguised l wish some OF our
good people would arrange TO take
them at reasonable rate, so that they
might remain and enjoy our Confer
ence and Chautauqua."
Mr.. Bayer requests The Sun to ask
those who have accommodations to
please let him know at the earliest
moment, as he has many inquiries for
accommodation on hand now, and is
procrastinating with a view to finding
locations for the applicants. A postal
card containing the number you can
accommodate and the rate, will be all
that he will need, and this informa-
ton will be filed for reference,
Indications point that the Bible Con-
ference and Chautauq9s will bring r
large number TO Gainesville this sea-
son, and by all means arrangements
should be made to accommodate them,
especially when they will be willing to
bear the expense.

Eight Rooms Have Been Addedto This
Hosiery and Neatly Furnished.
With n desire to meet the demand
for winter business, J w Ettel & Son,
the clever and obliging proprietors Of
the Brown House, have just completed
the annex, or addition, which compri-
ses eight rooms over the First National
Bank, Immediately sonth and adjoining
the main building These rooms have
been neatly papered, thoroughly rem
oyated. and furnished elegantly, and
there can in future be no complaint at
the inability Of those who desire hotel
accommodations to secure them.
Owing to the influx Of travel, largely
attracted by the session Of the Bible
Conference and Chautauqua here last
winter, there we're a few weeks when
this popular hostelry was overtaxed
and il was difficult to secure accOmmo-
dations. This matter has been REM
edied now, however, and the Brown
House is equipped with seventy as
nicely furnished and as comfortable
rooms as can be found anywhere in the
State in hotel Of the same class.
Messrs. Eltel & Son have made Won
derful improvements IN the Brown
House since assuming charge Of the
place. They have spent hundreds 81
dollars 10 reftting and remodeling
the house. with the result that they
now have one Of the ueatest and
cosiest public resorts BOZ ihe country,
and they Justly deserve the patronage
which is being extended to them The
