Leave Old Fort as a Landmark.

Boston, Mass. Nov, 23, 1906
To the Editor Ocala Banner.
| noticed in your paper some time
ago that it is proposed to remove the
old fort at ST. Augustine to make
room for new buildings. | think if
such thing were done it would be
a serious drawback to the town While
in Florida last winter | spent some
time in st. Augustine. The old town
in itself is very interesting, but the
attraction is the old fort and
its surrounding grounds. 1t would be
not only pity but a shame to destroy
such an old and picturesque fortifica-
ton; one of the few remaining land
marks left from the time when Amer
lea was first being opened up by the
civilization of the old world

Bar Meeting.

A bar meeting was held in the Of
flee of Judge William S. Bullock
Wednesday morning to consider the
place of holding the fall term of the
circuit court which is set for next
Tuesday.
The court house will not be com
pleted for some months yet so some
other place has to be provided. 1t
was stated at this meeting that the
sheriff had made diligent efforts to
secure a room but found it impossible
to get a place except the band room
over the Commercial bank and which
in every way is unsuitable unless
the weather continues pleasant so all
the attorneys present agreed to the
postponement of all civil business on
the docket until the meeting Of the
court in the spring. So the criminal
cases alone will be tried.
The following members of the bar
were present at the meeting:
r. McConathy, l.. N. Green, o. T.
Green, r. A. Burford. E. w. Davis,
VIM. Hooker, r. B. Bullock, l.. 7. IL

A Well Known Remedy.

One of the oldest, safest and most
favorable known remedies in the
world today is Brandreth's Pills-a
blood purifier and laxative. Being
purely vegetable they can be used
by old or young with perfect safety
and while other remedies require in
creased doses and finally cease acting
altogether, with Brandreth's Pills the
same dose always has the same effect
no matter how long they are taken.
One or two pills each night for a
while is the best thing known for
anyone troubled with constipation, in
digestion, dyspepsia or any trouble
arising from an impure state of the
blood.
Brandreth's Pills have been in use
for over a century and are sold in ev-
cry drug and medicine store, either
plain or sugar coated.

Prof. w. J. Borden, of oxford, Fla,
paid us a very pleasant visit on
Thursday afternoon. He was here on
a visit to his son, Mr.. Ben Borden,
v no has a position in the Ocala post
office. Prof. Borden has been a school
teacher for forty-one years and tells
some remarkable stories of many dis
tinguished men, who were pupils of
his. Some have become governors
of states and supreme judges. One
that he specially notes has had a
very remarkable career. The boy lost
his mother and his father and was
living with bis grandmother, who at
that time was eighty years or age.
She. lived on the sand hills Of Ala
bama and the boy up TO the time he
was fourteen years Of age had never
been inside church or school house.
The grandmother said that he simply
did not have decent enough clothes TO
". ar - these places. But at the
age o. fourteen he entered the coun-
try school taught by Prof. Borden
and was taught to read and write. At
first he was timid and shy but in a
little while he applied himself with
great diligence and aptitude 10 his
studies and passed rapidly in sue
cessiOn all of the grades. He after
wards went to California and was
graduated with the three highest hon
ors ever conferred on a graduate
from the University of California. One
of these honors was a thousand dol
lars in gold coin, another was a free
scholarship at Harvard. He later
took the highest hOnors at Harvard
one of which entitled him to enter as
"a partner any law firm in the United
States. He entered the most con-
spicuous one then in New York and
distinguished himself in the Beecher-
Tilton trial. He afterwards went to
Philadelphia and went in business
for himself, built an elegant mansion
and did an extensive practice. He
was appointed by Queen Victoria to
look after her interests in the Unit
ed States and did it so satisfactorily
that the queen insisted on his going
to London and becoming her special
counsel and he is now one OF the
privy counsellors to King Edward Of
England. His name is Lafayette De
FreeSe.

BUY ABANDONED FARMS
FOR SUMMER HOMES

Augusta, Me, Nov 12.-'The buying
OF abandoned farms by city people,
who convert them into summer places,
has assumed such proportions that II
has been called 10 the attention OF the
agricultural department OF the state.
Commissioner Gilman, who has investt-
gated the subject, states that ne does
not think it will be a good thing for
the agricultural interests OF Maine, as
it would materially reduce the total
output OF the state.
In recent years hundreds OF rich New
York and Massachusetts people who
visit this state I'm the summer have
bought up farms and used them during
| the summer only, cultivating only such
| land as they wished for tho raising
of flowers and garden vegetables. This
policy Is not I'm line with that advo-
| Gated by the agricultural department
Vigorous efforts have been made aided
, by the authorities OF the University OF
I Maine, to interest rural communities IN
the possibilities OF farming and fruit
