A BLIND TIGER ROMANCE

A man was arrested today in Ocala
by Sheriff Murrhee of Lake county who
is wanted in Orlando as a witness
against parties conducting blind tig
ers in that very dry town.
He is a man who insists that there
is no community of 10 people that is
supposed to be dry. but what some
one can be found who will sell liquor
Illegally. This party went to Orlando
the other day and being Of a thirsty
disposition cast around for the eyeless
beast and sure enough he found his
theory correct, for he found booze and
became so enamOred Of it that he kick
ed UP such a racket that those who
had sold the booze deemed it prudent
to send him to Jacksonville.
The officers of the law got on his
track and finally located him in Ocala.
Now the amusing part of his capture
consists of the fact that this party,
when in his cups, has mania for
oyster stews and oyster frys. This
the officer knew and when he found
him after a long search in the parlOr
Of west end mason dore." The man
said the earth should sink ere he would
leave the building or submit to ar
rest. Then it was that the officer
used diplomacy and remarked that he
was only fooling as they were good
friends, and they would go down town
for a oyster supper. In a moment the
man agreed and arm in arm he and
the officer walked out into the street
and entered a hack.
When the sheriff of Lake walked up
and served the warrant on the oyster
lover. the man remarked. You've got
ii on me this time, good" He was
taken to Orlando to testify against
the man who ran the blind tiger and
sold him booze agin the law.

THE KINDERGARTEN.

To the Editor OF the Alexandria Gazette:
We would like to make public &C.
acknowledgement of thanks to IN. N, A."
for her clear aud mastery statement of
the benefits of kindergarten instruction.
Her grasp of the subject and her in.
tuitive touch with the mind of the child
makes it a valuable contribution TO kin
dergarlen literature and we wish for it a
wider circulation than the schools Of
Alexandra. We have some knowledge
of the good done for the children OF
Fairfax county By Mrs. NJ. NJ. A., who
has supplemented her words by her
works. With determined energy and
interest she succeeded in securing the
removal OF the public school at Towards
Vile to a more suitable and sdvanis-
geous location and now the clean, COM
modious new school house stands as a
monument to her faithful farseeing efforts
to promote the cause ofeducalion among
the children of her ueighborhood.
To her generosity ID due the fact that
the school term is prolonged beyond the
time allowed by the appropriation, and
her many kind and encouraging words
to the one who presides over the desk
and rule has brought good reward.
