THIRTY-ONE DEAD.
And Nine Injured in Wreck of New
York and PennsyIvanians.

Santa Barbara, Cal, May H.
Thirty-one dead and a score injured,
tonight comprise the casualties OF
the wreck at Honda yesterday of the
Ismailia special train of New York
and Pennsylvania mobiles of the
Mystic Shrine, who were returning
home from the annual meeting OF
the imperial council of the Ancient
Arabic Order of the Mobiles of the
Mystic Shriners at Los Angeles. The
train carrying las Shriners and
friends from Ismailia Temple, Buff
falo; Rajah temple, Reading, Pa, and
neighboring cities was rushing north
ward fifty miles an hour on the
Southern Pacific coast line when the
locomotive struck defective switch
at the sand-swept sea coast siding of
Honda near the waters of the Pacific
ocean, along which the railroads run
for hundred miles north Of Santa
Barbara. The locomotive turned a
sOmersault into the yielding sands.
The cars swirled through the air and
landed on the fiery mass of wrecked
steel. The coaches were crushed to
debris, and took fire. The flames were
soon extinguished by uninjured per-
sons from the two rear coaches. AS
Honda is isolated it was not until
late today that definite information
could be collected. The bodies of
thirty-one victims now lie in Santa
Barbara and ten more are at San
Luis Obispo. The injured, many of
whom are terribly hurt and some of
whom may die, are in two sanitar-
iums at San Luis Obispo. Thirty
one persons were instantly killed and
ten injured.

taking it for granted that these two

LIVE OAK MEN BUY $500, 600
WORTH OF PROPERTY
RECENTLY
SAW MILL and TIMBER LAND
c. H. Brown, Chap. Tedder, Thos.
Bowling and w. G. Hair Buy Fine
South Florida Property

A gigantic railroad, saw mill, lum-
Der and timber land deal aggregating
half a million dollars, was consum-
mated at the DeSoto hotel this morn
ing between a party of the most
prominent fnanciers in the state.
Thomas Bowling, president of the
Bowling Lumber and Naval Stores
Company of Live Oak; C. H. Brown,
president of the First National Bank
of Live Oak; w. G. Hair, lumber
magnate of Live Oak, and c.. H. Ted
der. formerly of Live Oak, vice
president of the Tampa and Havana
Lumber Company, were the purehas-
ers from the Muller Lumber Company
all of its holdings.
The holdings purchased by these
gentlemen consist of large saw and
planning mill plant and railroad at
Odessa, Fla, and from F. E. Muller
the same gentlemen purchased be-
tween fifty and sixty thousand acres
Of timber land in Hillsborough coun-
ty.
1t is understood that the price paid
for the property purchased ranges
somewhere between four and five
hundred thousand dollars. The new
purchasers VIII continue to operate
all the business they have bought
and will greatly enlarge the mill
plants to meet growing demands for
lumber.
It is also understood that the gen.
tlemen intend to at once extend the
railroad from Odessa to Tampa or
some other point on the gulf to in
sure the prompt movement Of their
product, and it Is believed that they
will really run their road to Tampa,
as it offers apparently the greatest
advantages for such purposes.
The road from Odessa to Tampa
would also be able to do a good bust
ness in commercial way and would
be the nucleus later on for a long
line extending through that part Of
the state.-Tampa Times.
The purchasers of this property are
all Live Oak men, and are among the
most successful sawmill and timber
men in Florida. They have the
ability and the experience and are
competent to successfully handle this
property.
Mr.. Thos. Bowling, of this city,
formerly president of the Live Oak,
Perry and Gulf Railroad. and who
for years successfully conducted a
big sawmil here, will have general
supervision of the mill and railroad,
and W. G. Hair, also an old hand in
the sawmill business and general
manager of the Suwannee Sawmill
Company, will have active manage
ment of the mill, and will take
charge OF the property next Monday.
The Democrat learns il is the in
tention of the gentlemen who pur-
chased the plant to organize a joint
stock company. The name of the
company will be the Gulf Lumber
Company, and when the organization
is perfected, they will build a line of
road from the mill at Odessa to
Tampa. The road will pass through
a fine section Of country, and besides
handling the business of the Gulf
Lumber Company, it will also do a
passenger and freight business, and
those in position to know say it will
be the best paying piece Of railroad
property in Florida
Mr.. Bowling will continue to make
his home in our city. His connection
with this business, We are pleased to
note, will not deprive US of his
citizenship.

THE GRAND AND PETIT JURORS
SWORN IN THIS MORNING
CASE SET FOR AFTERNOON
A Number Of Cases Have Been trans
ferred to the Criminal Court of
Record-Light Docket,

Inc spring lSIm VI INC CiiCuiI
court for Suwannee county convened
this morning. at ten O'Clock. Judge
Palmer on the bench Y 4
The jurors were called and all were
present but one who afterward came
in. The following Is the list of those
placed on the grand jury: c. B. Oliff,
foreman; J. C. Pinkham, clerk; R.
w. Ingram, s. A. Richardson, d. B.
Richardson. G. NJ. Murphy, s. E
Newman, w. H. Lamb, /. /. Kirkland,
w. H. Cameron, c. A. knight, j. j.
Lewis, G.. T. Meeks, J. D. Parnell,
L. c. Lanier, w. M. Cason and w. H.
Ezell.
The judge delivered an able charge
to the grand jury and they were
turned over to the baliff and retired
to their room to begin their labors.
The petit jury is composed as fol-
lows: w. E. Harrell, ]. W. Hobbs,
A. E. Taylor, Peter Odom, H. J.
Green, Brantley Padge, w. d. Stin-
son, j. T. Mathis, j. R. Mills, 8. W.
Kennedy, c. B. Haynes and L. M.
Ballentine.
After the jury was empaneled, the
docket was sounded and all the cases
in which the newly created criminal
court holds jurisdiction was directed
by Judge Palmer to be transferred
to that court except some appeal
cases brought up from the county
! Judges court. These latter cases his
honor has under Amusement and may
also have them turned over to the
criminal court.
The hrs; case on the docket and
the one which will probably occupy
most of the time at the present term
is the Bart Mccall case. Mccall is
on trial for his life the charge against
him being murder. This case was
continued from the last term of court
because of some testimony desired tt
be introduced which was not theI
available. Robertson & Small are the
attorneys for the defense and 1t Il
expected they will make very strong
fight for their client.
On the civil docket appears th'
case of NJ. l. Swailes VS.. the Atlantic
Coast Line Railway, and this cas-
also will be one of the importan
cases at this term if the fight for
verdict is to be taken into considera
! ton.
Nothing in the way of verdicts i
expected to be accomplished thi
/, afternoon since the Mccall case is Sc
!, for this afternoon and in all pro
liability will not go to the jury befor
tomorrow some time.
Later: The Mccall case has bee
set for trial on Wednesday.

the coming campaign. But then again he may be smoothing the way for a revision of the traiff "by it's friends" ]" which would simply be revision in the interest of contributing trusts and other benefciaries of the tariff. It would be revision that would revise in carefully selected spots only. No revision of the tariff by it's benefici- aries would help consumers or the country's export trade or anybody else except the revisers themselves and their cliques. When real revision takes place it will be made by dem- ocratic house and signed by demo- cratic President It will have to be forced perhaps down the throats of a republican senate.

LOCAL TALENT
 GROWS JEALOUS

Birmingham's "home talent'' is driving out the foreign element Strangers fol- lowing the particular line of business in question are exceedingly unwelcome for some reason, and the local crowd has re- sorted to very impressive means of making this fact evident.
 Within the past week warrants have been sworn out before one of the judges for the arrest of at least dozen all legged gamblers, who are strangers .n the town. and strange to say, the warrants were issued at the instlgation of gam bers who are very well known in Bir- mingham. No reason is assigned for this action. as far as is known to the au- thorities, but warrants charging visitors in the city with vagrancy have en is- sued with unusual rapidity here of late.
 Last Saturday night two brothers, said to have been from Montgomery. and one other man had been placed in the county iail on charges of vagrancy. The war rants were sworn out by a well known gambler. Since Saturday a number of other warrants have been issued. charging yagrancy, and no doubt arrests will fol- low within the next few days.
 The cause of this war on the visitor is not known unless it be that the gam blers of Birmingham are divided again.

Iwn Bin Events This Week

Between the Horse Show in the city and the State Fair at Fairview, nearby suburb, the lover of the horse and the farm and of outdoor life in general will not go this week un- satisfied. for both are to be fine events. Both will be opened today-the State Fair at 10 o'clock today and the Horse Show at o'clock tonight.
 From farm and village-from the cities too-vast numbers are coming to Birmingham, and this city welcomes them all. It is rare indeed that 1t holds so much that is attractive. No lover of fine horses can afford to stay away No one who desires to study the development of Alabama will be missing at Fairview. All who desire to see and meet great throngs of Alabamans will come.
 Both events disregard state lines.
 
 They are interstate as well as intra- state. The best that could be se- cured has been brought here to en- certain and to instruct the people of Alabama. It is already known that people are coming here from every county. and some of the nearer coun- ties will be nearly depopulated. The desire for a vacation is strong at this season of the year, and the farmers and dealers have full gockets, and they are coming here this week. Not one of them will go back home disap- pointed Every one will get his moneys worth.
