Hartford" Toast Proclaimed
His Coming Greatness.

In his early Hartford days Mark
Twain took an active interest In base
ball In common with most of his fel.
low citizens. says Harper's Weekly.
While attending an exciting match he
lost a gold-headed umbrella. which he
advertised In the local papers some
what after this fashion:
"Lost-$IO reward. A gold.headed
umbrella was lost by the undersigned
on the grandstand at the baseball
ground on Saturday. 1t was probably
stolen from him while he was engaged
In cheering the Hartfords for their
victory over the Providence nine
presumably stolen by red-headed.

For the body of the boy and the UNI
brella delivered at my house on Farm
ington avenue $40 will be paid. For
the body OF the boy or the umbrella
separately, IS for either. For the boy
alive, nothing under any circum'
stances This advertisement was
signed with his full name and address.
At dinner given by some local
mercantile or business organization
Mr.. Clemens responded to the toast
OF Hartford" In his speech he glori'
fed the city rs the one place In the
world which provided for every pos
sible human need. He said that Hart.
ford wrote life insurance policies to
protect mems lives. accident policies
to protect their persons. and fire In
surance policies to protect their fu.
ture. II made guns and pistols with
which to kill men, but printed books
TO tell them how to live and Bibles
TO tell them how to die. In short,
II supplied all their needs. not only
here but even hereafter.

ThreeOf Americas most distinguished
Statesmen. william ]. Bryan, Vice
President Fairbanks and Secretary of
State Taft will visit Tampa during the
Florida State fair, to be held November
Il to q. Col. +. ]. L. Brown, while
working for the Panama exposition bill
In Washington, invited Messrs. Fair
banks and Taft to attend the fair, and
they replied that they would very much
like TO do 80. Col, Brown recently re-
ceived = letter from an official friend in
Washington, stating that the states
men would undoubtedly be here. Col.
Bryan, who viii undoubtedly be the
next Democratic candidate for the pres
idency, will be invited to attend the
fair by Congressman Sparkman and
Senator Taliaferro uponhis return from
tour Of the world. As he will spend
considerable time travelling over the
United States and lecturing, it is conf
IDENTIFY expected that he will accept the
invitation. Florida will give the states
men mentioned = rousng welcome, as
all are regarded rs presidential posi-
bilities.
The space allotted each county exhib-
iting at the coming State fair at Tampa
will be reserved for that county at the
great Panama Exposition, which will be
held in 1903, and which will be held by
hundreds of thousands. Many new
buildings will Of course, have to be erect
ed for the expositiod, in order to give
Florida and other States ample room to
display their resources, and no county
in Florida can afford to be without rep
resentation at either the State fair or
the Panama Exposition.
Florida counties contemplating exhib-
ting at the coming State fair at Tampa
will be interested to learn that Hills
borough county will not compete fol-
the prizes offered. Hillsborough, how
ever, will be represented by magnif-
cent exhibit; but as Il is the home
county of the fair, and, owing TO Tampa
being the scene of the fair, it can easily
win points on industrial and educational
exhibits, which puts the other counties
at disadvantage. Hillsborough, there.
fore, withdraws from the race. Hills
borough county expects to get her re-
ward from advertising her resources To
the thousands of homeseekers attending
the fair; and for the benefits of the adj
vertising, even II $751; 900 were not Of
fered in premiums, every county in the
State should be represented.

One State fair.

All indications now point to the fact
that there will be represented at the
State fair, which Is to be held at Tampa
November IA TO 20, an even greater
number Of counties than were repre-
scented at the fair last year. Counties
from every section Of the State, owing
to the arrangement Of the premium lists,
are preparirT to compete for the large
prizes offered. and q greater number
will be repr, scented than at any fair In
the history Of the South. Our county
should get busy and be represented by
an exhibit that will attract the atten-
ton Of the thousands Of homeseekers
from other States who will attend the
fair.
The amusement features Of the COM
ing State fair at Tampa will be supe-
rior TO those Of any fair held in the
South. President T. J. L. Brown, Of
the fair association, will spend the next
two or three weeks on q tour Of the big
attraction centers, and high-cIass shows
viii be secured regardless of expense.
Absolutely nothing Of q shoddy or CON-
mon nature will be allowed on the
amusement grounds. The horse racing
will b finer than before, as larger
pursee will be offered and none but run
ming races will Be run.

II there ever was time in the his

manifestation Of loyalty and patriotism
on the part Of It's members, it is right
now.
II we are to win a victory and elect a
President two years hence, we must
first elect House of Representatives
this fall. A Democratic House can and
will investigate every department Of
the government. With all of them
honeycombed by graft" the edges Of
which, only, have been touched by re-
cent exposure and prosecutions, there
will be q revelation of rOttenness that
will astound the country and create a

To win the House we need money to

our vote. We have no protected mo-
nOpolies from which TO draw to fill our
Golfers, as they do those OF the Repub-
lican party. We must, therefore, APP
peal to loyal Democrats for cOntribu-
tions.
Will you send US 81 at once, and in
