BUILD THIS ROAD.

Probably the most important piece
Of public road work now being con-
structed IN Alachua county IS that
known as the Gainesville and Mica
ncpy road. via Rocky Point and Waca-
hoota. When this road is completed 1t
win give a hard surface road from
Gainesville to Ocala via Evinston,
with the exception Of few miles from
Mcintosh TO the latter place, which
will soon be constructed by the Ma
rion county authorities II will also
connect Gainesville with Orlando via
Leesburg. eventually leading on to
Daytona Beach. We will also be con-
nected with Crystal River by a
branch hard road from OcaIa.
The county commissioners should
see to it that work ON the road TO
Micanopy is pushed to completion at
the earliest date possible. The peo-
pie through whose property the road
passes will do their part, and its early
completion will stimulate the construc-
ton Of hard surface roads in other
sections.
BY all means continue the work on
the GainesviIIe-M icanopy road until

"BiIly BoWleqs."

You remember the old chief of the
Seminole Indians, Mlcanopy, and how
Osceola sent him to waylay and fight
Major Dade and our soldiers in the
first real battle of that Seminole war?
Micanopy had with him at that time
his young grandson, who was about
twelve years of age. This boy rode
a small Florida pony on that eventful
day, and when the battle began he
led his pony behind clump of earth
and grass, called q hummock, and
stretching the lariat, slender hair
rope, on the ground, the pony under
stood that he was meant to. stand
still. Then the boy took his bow and,
stringing an arrow ready for use. lay
down in the tall, thick prairie-grass
near Micanopy. suppose this boys
real name was Cicanouplto-for that
means the grandson of Micanopy in
Spanish-but he began when he was
so very young to ride astride big
horses, and on top of such large bun
dies, that it made his legs crooked,
and his father, who knew a very little
Spanish, nicknamed his Piernas Cod
vas, meaning bowlegs When he grew
up, Natto 10, man who was part
Indian and Part negro, called him
Guillermita las piernas corvas, mean
ing to say little William Bowlegs;
but when Natto 10 came into camp,
and spoke of him by that name. the
soldiers asked what it meant and
turned for themselves into Billy Bow
legs.
Billy Bowlegs was thirty-two years
old when he first led his warriors into
battle. About $50 Seminoles refused
to go West when most of the Creek
Indians went to live in Indian Terri
tory after Osceola died, and it was
these who followed Billy Bowlegs. He
was a full-blooded Seminole, a perfect
marksman. and his powers of endur-
ance were as remarkable as his abil-
ity to appear and disappear in the
most unexpected manner. This was
possible because he was so well ac-

The Everglades Is the name given to

The whole Is very marshy and full Of
the inter-twlned roots of tree trunks.
Long streamers of moss hang from the
trees and while the Indians In their
light canoes could push among the
vines and thickets so that no trace
or sign of them could be seen by a
white man, 1t was impossible for the
soldiers to follow them on horseback

George was taken into the cabin,
where he made the most Of Joe's
clothes. Presently, Joe came to tell
Nora and her father that the young

man waved consentingly at Nora, but
he did not go. Bitter and sweet fought
great battle in his heart. When he
finally did stand on the threshold of
the cabin, he overheard the lovers
conversation.
"But now | am poor man." said
George; "do you want poor MANI"

there is a moments pause, while the
spider looks carefully over the ground,
as if deciding the best course to take.

this point, it pulls itself together and
rushes on its prey so quickly that the
poor little fly does not even know it
is in danger until 1t is actually in the
enemy's clutches.-Home Herald

AMERICAS PRECIOUS STONES.
Turquoises Lead in Numbers--Few
OpaIs 10 Spoil Cur Luck.

SO far as is known at present this
continent is not very literally sup
piled with precious stones. Statistics
in the United States were not gath
cred until 1889, when the Census Bu-
reau announced at s1SS,SO7 the val
ue of the output of precious stones
for that year.
The latest report on the subject is
that of 1902, when the output reached
s32S,450. This does not include the
haphazard picking up Of stones by
stray seekers after them, so that the
real crop of gems is probably more
important than the figures show.
According to the statistics from
1886 to 1902, diamonds were found in
only three of those years, 900 in 1899,
$50 in 1901 and 100 in 1892, some
what significant decrease. Since
that time the alleged Arkansas dia-
mond field has come into notice and
the leading item of the list will again
have figures instead of the single
word none" set opposite it.
Most of the precious stones report
ed have weird and unheard of names.
such as prehnite and diopside. But in
the number found turquoises lead the
rest with 10000 reported. Next come
sapphires, $4,000 of which were found
in 1892.
There were 10000 tourmalines, l.
200 crystal quartz specimens and even
1000 anthracite ornaments were found
worthy to be included in the report.
There were 1000 emeralds and 1000
beryls, but the sad state of the epi.
dote and the diopside hunters may
be inferred from the fact that the
discoveries Of these stones fell from
$50 in 1896 to none in 1902. Neither,
alas, were there any prehnites or
utahlites.
No wonder this is a lucky country
II wearing opals has anything to do
with It, In 1902 only fifteen were

ing years We apparently sported none

And just few for speed.

With children dear and wife,
