Stetson University.

President HUXLEY gave his charm
| ing lecture recital from Robert Burns
before the Volusia County Teachers
Association on Friday at an eleven
fifteen hour. The Doctor was at his
best, notwithstanding he had hur-
ridly left the duties of the office and
the class room to appear before the
Teachers convention. When be had
occupied an hour and felt that the
audience ought to be dismissed for
the noon intermission, score OF
school ''marms h-male and female
were heard to say: II don't want any
dinner, am no longer hungry, etc,
and so the speaker yielded to persua-
sion and continued for fifteen min
utes longer, to the evident delight of
all present.
On Wednesday evening of last
week an entertainment was given in
the Auditorium to which the public
were generally invited and the
County Teachers Association, then
in session here, especially. The eve
ming was in charge of several town
and University people and was an
act of courtesy which was both en-
joyable and appreciated. Owing to
its occurance during the school week,
the student body did not attend very
largely, but a considerable number
of towns people and visiting MEM
bers of the teachers association
were present.
The Business College graduating
Glass of 1907 met in Miss Hunsaker's
department Feb. IA, for the purpose
of organizing. with II present. Prof.
Mickle took charge until the presi-
dent was elected. The following
officers were elected: Miss Buxton,
President; Miss McElroy Vice
President; Miss Dade, Secretary and
Treasurer. The meeting proceeded
with Miss Buxton presiding. A
committee consisting of Miss Dade,
Miss Sheddan and Mr.. McElroy was
appointed to decide upon a class pin.
1t was decided by the class to hold
its weekly meetings at 3 O'Clock
every Tuesday.
On Monday evening the Glee Club
gave an evenings programme before
the people of Orange City. The au-
dience was larger than might have
been expected and the boys were at
their best. After the concert came
the inevitable spread. And then the
drive home to the accompaniment of
some good old college songs. This
concert will probably close the Clubs
season for this school year.

THE LATE J. w. MILLER.

The busy life of Capt. John w.
Miller reached its end last Friday,
the first instant, and he now rests
from unceasing activities which
would have worn down the vitality
of the most iron constitution. His
span of years fell a few months short
Of 5S, yet in that time he lived a CEN
turv, measuring his cares, respon-
sibilities and achievements by the
average standard.
That he acted we'll his part there
can be no question. He would have
made his mark anywhere. That he
chose this county for his field of ope-
rations long ago resulted IN the adj
vancement of its material interests,
and his best monument consists of
hundreds of acres of beautiful, Guilt
waited groves which, had it not been
for the spur of his indomitable en-
ergy and faith in the ultimate future
Of the orange industry of our lake
region, would today have been waste
places.
His steamboat interests grew from
a small but necessary aid in pioneer
development to an enterprise in
which all river towns feel a pride,
and from which its founder was be-
ginning to realize the just rewards
ofprofit.
He put his dollars to work as soon
as they reached maturity, and while
some were made to serve the pur-
poses of his own material advance
ment. others went with a free hand
to the alienation of distress and the
upbuilding of society. His charity
was broad and of the kind that think
eth no evil; that yaunteth not itself;
that did not behave itself unseemly;
aud nov that his life work is ended
and he has entered upon that long,
sweet dream of peace, the Righteous
Judge of all the earth may be de-
pended on to meet his spirit at the
awakening and point the way to
Elysian fields.
The lessons in the life Of John w.
Miller of greatest value to all who
knew and loved him are found in his
hatred Of sham, his public spirit, his
courage in the face of seemingly in
surmountable obstacles, and in his
unaffected love for his fellowmar.

Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps to-
bacco. The outside Of the imitation
plugs of tobacco is fue cured the same
as Schnapps, but the inside is filled
with cheap, fimsy, heavily sweetened
air cured tobacco. One chew OF
Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger
longer than two chews of such to-
bacco. The color, size and shape
of the tags, plugs and packages OF
certain imitation brands OF tobacco
have been made SO much like
Schnapps that they have often been
accepted by buyers under the belief
that they were getting SchnapPs;
Sufficient proof has been secured
to establish the fact that certain
brands are infringements and in vio-
lation of the trade mark laws, yet the
trade will continue to be imposed
upon by these infringers until the suit
already entered and now pending to
protect Schnapps is decided. A

That the leaders of the threatened
independent municipal movement
for better government of Palatka
took action upon the second thought
which favored the more sober pro-
cedure of the regular caucus is
matter for congratulation and their
successes of Monday night proves
the correctness of the News theory
that generally attended caucus of
citizens will always favor an expires
sion Of the popular will, Independ-
entism means a divided citizenship,
and factiOnalisms from which no
good to the community can result,
\ fully attended caucus means an
harmonious movement along the
line Of the popular will. And as
there can be no doubt of the honesty
of purpose of the majority, there
should never be fear for the results
of a generally attended caucus. The

litical action among the white peo-
pie Of Palatka. 1t is the one ortho-
