Much TO the surprise of his many
friends MIR. Joe Louisiana, one of the
best net fishermen on the Indian
River, slipped away Sunday and got
caught in a matrimonial net by a
Miss Hall, of near KiSsimmee. Joe
and his bride arrived Wednesday and
his friends tried to even up things
by giving the couple a charivari that
night. All the hideous sounding
instruments that could be thought Of
were gathered together and at a late
hour the serenaders crept into the
yard and the band opened up. A
friend of the couple, who was in the
house, slipped out a rear door and
began firing an automatic revolver.
Through the barbed wire fence and
palmetto scrub the serenaders scram-
bled, leaving numerous tin pans, cow
horns, conk shells, bells, ETC., behind,
and not one of them remained to en-
joy the sillybub and cake and wish
the happy couple long life and pros
perity.

The Florida Experimental Station
at Gainesville has issued its 96th bull
letin on how to prepare celery seed
beds and when to sow the celery.
August and September are the
months in which to prepare the beds
50 as to market the output in Janu-
airy and April. New land is better
adapted to this crop than any other
and hammock land is most desirable.
Seed beds should be shaded with stats
or cheese cloth, as the most success
full growers around Titusville have
found this plan the best.

The Ideal Home.

A writer in the Palm Beach News
thus describes a happy Florida home:
NY ideal home, is not necessarily
adorned with the trappings Of wealth
nor must it be saddened by pinching
poverty. A competence there must
be, which, with industry and thrift,
will preserve its inmates from pain
full anxieties.
In this home, the husband is the
bread-winner, the wife the home
maker, and together they reign as
king and queen over the little realm.
The children, for there are children
in my ideal home, are loyal and ODE
dent subjects, every one, and it
never occurs to them to question the
divine right of their king and queen
to rule.
Order and system prevail; but
love, and self-sacrifice for loves sake
animates all hearts within this home,
and to be good and do good is their
constant rule of conduct. Health,
smiling goddess, stands at its portal
and scatters happiness and prosperity
with lavish hands. The table is not
only the place where natures recur-
ring wants are daily supplied, but a
school of manners; yet there HARM
less mirth disports itself unrebuked
and thought unfettered flows.
Books there are in abundance,
bringing the culture of all countries
and all ages within reach of this
charmed circle. Flowers bloom in
the window, and smile at you from
the garden paths with their sugges-
ton of beauty and refinement. Yet,
whatever else may be there, the
guests who frequent this house are
its choicest, most valued ornaments.

The sheriff of Volusia county has
received notice from Gov. Broward
that the state has offered reward
of $500 for the arrest and conviction
of the parties who committed what
is commonly known as the Packwood
murder, near Oak Hill, some fifteen
years ago, in which Mrs. Hatch, Ben
ME Hatch, Miss Bruce and frankie
Packwood were foully murdered. At
the time the crime was committed
two white men and one negro were
arrested and tried for the crime, but
came clear. Recent developments in
the case has led to further investiga-
ton by detectives and officers of the
law with the result that the perpe-
traitors of the crime may be discov-
cred, hence the reward is offered at
this time. Justice has been long de-
layed in this case, but it is hoped
that the perpetrators of this foul
deed may yet be brought to justice.

Help your children to do their best
at school. How? Have them on
time. Encourage them to be polite,
studious and kind. Arrange home
duties so as to help and not hinder
the school work. Soon the time for
school will be passed. Better take
advantage of the opportunity great
state offers to every boy and girl.
Talk up the school. Try to help ere
ate a school atmosphere that will
make strong men and noble women.
A school is helped or hindered by
the general, social and. moral condi-
tons outside. Make it the great
common community interest to unite
all. Make education and not money
the standard of excellence.-Ex.

There is probably no portion of the
state where there is as great advance
ment along educational lines as on
the East Coast. Although a great
portion of this territory has been
settled but a few years the people
who have come and are coming are
people of education, refinement and
intelligence, and among the first
work they did was to furnish their
children with educational facilities
equal to those in the older settled
portions of the United States. The
result has been most gratifying as
many of the pupils from this section
are holding positions of honor and
trust at home while others are win
ming fame and occupying exalted po-
sitions in some of the best institu-
tons of learning north and south.

MISS MAYME e. SMITH, "a East
WI Mound St., Columbus, Ohio, writes:
"Have used Peruna for catarrh and
hay fever. The results being remark
able, can highly recommend 1t to all
who are suffering with the above dis
eases. 1 am happy to be able to say 1t
has helped me wonderfully"
What is known as hay fever Is in
reality endemic catarrh, . catarrhal
condition OF the nose, throat, some
times the bronchial tubes, induced by
some local irritant.
The irritation is generally due 10 vege-
tai carnations of some sort. Hay has
been suspected as being the cause OF
this malady, hence its name, hay fever.
1t has been attributed to rag weed and
other vegetation also. II is a very
capricious disease, coming and going.
A medicine that will help one case may
not help another. Such treatment has
always been very uncertain and unsat-
isfactOry.
Peruna helps some cases without .
doubt, although it is not claimed to be
an infallible remedy Cor such cases.

MOTIONS ARGUED
IN SPECIAL TERM
Al. RICHTER is PLACED ON TRIAL
FOR ILLEGAL SALE OF WHISKY
AT LLMAN-DEMURRE ARE
FILED.

Cullman, February 5.-(Special.)-Al
Richter was put on trial this morning in
the special term of circuit court on the
charge of selling liquor in violation of
the local option law. The entire day was
taken up in preliminary motions and
arguments.
The first move in the morning was a
motion attacking the constitutionality of
the local option law. This was over
ruled by the court.
The defense then moved to quash the
venire of the petit jury. This was prompt
ly overruled by Judge Speake. The de-
Tense then made a motion to quash the
venire of the special grand jury, claiming
that the same was illegally drawn.
This question was submitted to the
petit jury and on instruction from the
court brought in a verdict for the state
sustaining the venire.
The defense then filed bill of demurers
to the Indictment, attacking the constitu-
tionality of the local option law and the
state prohibition law.
The demurrers We're ably argued by at
torneys for the defense, E. II. Cabaniss
and s. j. Bowie of Birmingham and Judge
r. w Walker of Huntsville. The state
was represented by Circuit Solicitor Dave

Prohibition seems to have made the bus

says: II have information of more IL

sissipp Florida and Georgia. In re-
cent trip to Florida nine raids we're made.
half a dozen plants destroyed, six men
caught and warrants issued for ten more.
For several weeks the reports of Illicit
liquor making have been coming in and
the impression is becoming very general
that with the putting out of whisky in
the towns and cities the manufacture
in the hill counties will pick up. During
the last few years this business had
fallen off and the government has not
been so diligent as heretofore in seeking
out the offenders, hence they ar not only
NOR prolific, but decidedly holder.

Montevallo, February Especial. miss
Condie Cunningham of Birmingham, a
pupil in the Alabama Girls Industrial
school, was seriously burned at the dormi-
tory of the school last night while trying
TO extinguish the flames in an alcohol
chatting dish.
Her clothing were ignited in some way
and before the flames could be extin-

burned. 1t was feared that the injury
might prove fatal but she is resting we'll
tonight and hopes are entertained for
her recovery.
Miss Cunningham is the daughter Of w.
C. Cunningham, clerk Of the inferior GRIM
inal court of birmingham.
The rumor that others were injured
and that the dormitory was burned is a

BRYAN MEN ARE ACTIVE

Montgomery, February 5.-(Special.)-
Like the train that Finnegan reported
off again, on again. gone again" is the
will of the democratic leaders of the
state with regard to a plan for the selec-
tion of delegates to the national conven-
tion. Monday it was primary with a
whoop, Tuesday it had changed to con-
vention with somewhat of the same en-
thusiasm but not all of it, and Wednes-
day, with the coming up dof the sun, it
had gone back to primary with the prom
Use to let it go at that. So ii Is that If
there is not another change of heart by
Friday the committee will no doubt issue
instructions to vote for delegates in the
same way that state and county officers
ire selected.
The determination to have a primary
seems to have grown out of the efforts of
the Bryan leaders to conserve the inter-
ests of their man. 1t was thought that
the party leaders would have no trouble
in handling either convention or primary,
but as there is more chance for contest
and controversy in the former the agree
ment for the latter seemed best of all. a
threat had been made to capture certain
minor sections If the convention had been
determined upon, and the peace lovers
are avoiding a fight wherever they can,
believing that the large majority of the
voters are with the leaders anyway, leav-
ing nothing to be gained by further I'M
necessary controversy.
That the influence may be properly
brought, however, the Bryan state COM
mittee has been called to meet Thursday
night, as has the farmers and laborers'
committee, headed by w. D. Nesbtt,
which was such a power for Governor
Conner in his rate reform campaigns in
the past. The members will be here to-
morrow and have part in the preliminary
work in order that a plan fully worked
out may be presented to the committee
when 1t assemblies Friday. Many other
democrats are here, this is thought to
be the first chance for lineup since the
campaign for governor and the adherents
of all factions do not mind finding out
something of the situation.
