FAST TRAVEL IN pREAMLANp
In Three Minutes the Dreamer May
Journey Leisurely Around
the World.

A fash of light is not sluggish,
sound travels rapidly, a bullet is
ne messenger boy, and an auto
mobile which shoots a mile in %
seconds is moving along certainly
When it comes to getting over
the ground in real hurry, how
ever, to devouring distance in
dead earnest, the dreamer
marches proudly at the head Of
the procession. He makes the
latest thing in theline of 150horse-
power racing cars look like hay
carts in a mud bank.
A man sits in his chair after
dinner and dozes; he awakes with
a start and discovers to his sur
prise that he lost consciousness
for exactly three minutes by the
clock.
Yet in those three minutes he
journeyed from New York to Port
Said, transferred himself to st.
Petersburg, loitered in Paris and
London and sailed up the Nile.
What is-of greater importance
in this connection, he journeyed
leisurely, almost indolently; he
stonned at various Hpoints of in
terest" and examined them thor
oughly; he met with annoying and
amusing experiences on steam
ships and trains; he talked with
acquaintances whom he encoun-
tered in foreign lands and he told
some of them precisely what he
thought Of them-there was gen.
uine pleasure in that.-PrOvi-

How 10 Break Up a Cold.

1t may be a surprise to many to
learn that a severe cold can be com
pletely broken up in one or two days
time. To 90 this, however, prompt
action is necessary. The first symp-
toms Of cold are a dry, loud cough,
a profuse watery discharge from the
nose, and thin, white coating on
the tongue. When Chamberlain's
cough remedy is taken every hour
on the first appearance of the symp-
toms, it cOunteracts the effect of the
cold and restores the system to a
healthy condition within a day or
two. For sale by L. L. Elgin and

GOVERNORS MANSION.

Adam street leads straight from the
capitol to the governors mansion,
which stands at the extreme north
end of the street, facing the city. The
site is a beautiful one, from the top
of hill among the murmuring pines
and primeval oaks, where the peace
and quiet of a suburban home may
he enjoyed as well as the tumult and
turmoil of city residence.
Standing just outside the city limits,
at the end of Adams street and at
the top of the hill, it commands a
view of the street almost to the cap
itol, a distance of three-fourths of a
mile, and practically bird's-eye
view of the whole city. Directly at
its feet, as it were, runs the street
which marks the northern boundary
of the city. 1t is as yet unnamed.
The building is as yet incomplete.
From what stands there-its broad
front and many windows-it is to be
a noble structure, fitted
exactly for this cline and for this pur-
pose 1t is hoped that the completion
of this mansion will be in the near
future, and then an accurate descrip-
ton may be given.-Tallahassee True
Democrat.

Governor Broward has explained in
an executive proclamation minus the
great gold seal of the state and its
ribbon attachment, that he has gone
down into his own pants for one
thousand dollars, which amount he
has been spending in spreading the
gospel Of everglades drainage in the
shape of tracts. ''The work." he says,
must be continued, and he calls on
the public, which can be fooled semi
occasionally, to come to his assis-
lance with stamps, checks, postoffice
and express money orders, and even
money. At last reports he had not
been compelled to employ any addi-
tional clerks to open his mail.-Pa-

SALIENT POINTS IN THE BROW
ARD-REARD DEBATE.

Broward says: Drain the lands and
let the courts settle the title after
wards"
Beard says: Settle the title first
and If the state owns the land drain
lit"
Broward says: LET us sell a piece
10 Bill Smith and use the money to
drain with and so on"
John Jones and use the money to
drainwi th,a nd so on"
Beard says: THAT course would be
dishonest, because, If the courts de-
eide that the land belongs to the rail-
roads, the railroads would eject Bill
Smith and John Jones from that part
of the land sold them"
Broward says: vote for the Con-
|stitutional Amendment and give us,
the Board of Trustees. the power we
ask, and we will drain the land"
Beard says: vote Against the Con-
stitutional Amendment, because if
the Constitutional Amendment carries,
it is self-executing a ntdakes away
from the legislature and the people
all power and control over the land,
and it would take another amendment
to the Constitution to remedy the de-
fects.''
Broward says: "Vote for the Con-
stitutional Amendment and put it
out of the power of the legislature to
change the law, because in the past
legislatures have been influenced and
lney may be influenced again."
Peard says: 1T is exceedingly un-
Mis' to lodge so much power where
it cannot be revoked, though the pres
ent board of trustees of the Internal
Improvement Fund and Drain
age Commission are all honorable. up
right gentlemen who would not abuse
the power yet in two years there will
he a change, and from time to time
other changes in the personnel of the
boa;i aid we may not be so fortunate
in securing such gentlemen"
Broward says: "The people in the
everglade counties are the ones to
be taxed to drain the land"
Beard says: Under the grant from
the United States of the swamp and
|overfiowed lands to Florida, that the
lands include in the grant are in ev-
cry part of the state and hence every
part of the state where such lands in
cluded in the grant lie will be subject
to the tax and may be taxed"
Broward says: THAT may be true
that the Constitutional Amendment
does not require the board to turn the
money coming into the hands Of the
state treasurer, nor bond, for that
since each member Of the board has
to sign all checks 1t is not likely they
would all agree to steal the same
amount at the same time.
Beard says: THAT the Judgment of
such power in the board without bonds
or checks is un-American." -Pensa.

SHAFTER At SANTIAGO.
n Little Inside History on HIS Ap-
pOlntment and Treatment.
To the Editor of The Tribune.

10 tHe EulloT OF Inc Tribune.
Sir: So much is being said on the subject of
the appointment of General Shafter to the COM
mand OF the Santiago expedition that his own
words the subject should be of interest
few days before the selection was made L
happened to be dining with General Shafter and
others at the Ebbitt House. in Washington.
During the dinner General Miles's card was
brought in to General Shafter who excused him
self and left the room. In ten minutes he
turned and with smile his face told us
that General Miles had said TO him: President
Mckinley wishes TO see you at the White House
this evening with me. l have recommended you
for the command of the Cuban expedition" Gen
eral Shafter went to the White House later in
the evening with General Miles. and received his
appointment from the President. General Miles
recommended General Shafter account of his
experience and ability in handling troops in a
rough hill country such as they knew existed IN
Southern Cuba.
When it turned out that this expedition meant
a final campaign Miles's disgust knew no
bounds. and General Shafter then became 10 a
certain extent the victim Of his chagrin and
pettness. General Miles's rancor supple
mented by that of the newspaper scribblers. who
were undoubtedly harshy treated by General
Shafter. The story that General Shafter advo-
Gated retreat cannot be proved 1t prac-
tically made out Of whole cloth by his enemies.
and they know very we'll who the commanders
were who. at the conference the night OF
July 2. proposed a retreat. which General Shafter
positively refused 10 make The retreat pro-
posed. and which General Shafter wired to

tunity for General Skaters enemies reporters
