Il would not exchange the pleas

clared Herbert Ender, one of the
best known young men of the city,
yesterday. Mr.. Ender is Tampa
boy, and is one of the few young
Floridains who had the privilege OF
going with Uncle Sam 5 feet abroad
and of crossing the equator four
times in his travels.
He vas employed as a fireman
aboard the battleship Missouri in
the fleet which left Hampton Roads
December 10, 1907, and returned

he came direct to Tampa and is
visiting his parents, Mr., and Mrs,
!. Z. Endcr. He will be here
about twenty days, and then re
turns to duty on the Missouri, with
which ship he will serve nearly
three more years.
Having many friends in Tampa,
his time will be well taken up in
relating experiences of the cruise
to those and showing the many
souvenirs he has brought with him
from all the countries visited,
These are of all kinds and deScrip-
tions and include a wonderful col
lection of coins.
MAS OVERHEARD,
At one time during the cruise the
fleet was stopped in the MallacCa
straits by the signal Of man over
board given by a flag at half mast
from the Ohio, The signal was a
mistake on the part of those aboard
the Ohio. who were attempting to
raise the flag to the top of the mast.
The signal was noticed Immediately
however, by the Missouri, which
sounded the salute, and this was
taken up Immediately by all the
ships Of the big fleet \ search
followed. liicboats being manned
from the various ships, and before
the mistake in the signal was real
lied. man was lost overheard
from the lifeboat of the Wisconsin.
He was never found This Incl
dent Of the stopping Of the fleet has
been quoted widely in the press,
correctly and incorrectly, and has
been shown to many audiences in
moving picture shows throughout
this country,
The young man is only a few
months past his majority and has
had an experience that many men
never have in lifetime. He
speaks interestingly OF his trip, and

the amendment does not receive a
majority vote of all the electors the

vision Of the constitution will CON
tinue in force.
The matter came up in the Sen
ate on Thursday. The galleries
were crowded with prohibitionists
lobbying for the adoption of the
amendment, and hired lobbyists
and saloon interests lobbying
against it. The measure finally
passed the senate by the vote of
"a for to ! against. Those voting
against were;

Sams--Volusia County,
Zim-St. Augustine,
The measure was taken out Of
the hands of the House committee
on Friday, and. after a most siren
uous and bitter parliamentary row,
was passed by the vote of 50 to 10.
Representatives Alexander and
Thornton of Nolusia voted for the
amendment. The galleries of both
houses were filled by spectators at
the time of the passage Of the
amendment The ladies sang
hymns and fairly went wild when
they won their fought contest.
Governor GilchriSl is following
in the footsteps of Strenuous Teddy
in at least one respect, and seldom
lets a day pass in which he does not
send in one or more messages, COW
ering every subject in regard to
State government. Outside OF
these messages, the governor IS not
making any determined effort to
control State legislation. He sim
ply calls the attention of the Legs
lature to matters coming to his
attention and urges the passage OF
such measures as he believes will
give relief.
The great trouble with the State
government now is the lack OF
funds with which to meet appro-
priations made by the last eXtrava-
CANT Legislature. At the present
time the pension fund is three
months behind and nearly every
other fund is depleted Unless
measures are enacted to increase
revenue, or expenses are cut to
meet receipts, State warrants Will
soon be sold at discount.

was Smith, but stated that they be-

The case of Mrs. Nugent was one of
the most pathetic that has ever been
brought to the attention of the local
justices In the trial of the case the de-
PENDANT, who is young and pretty
maintained that she was forced to
marry her husband by her relatives
who bounded her continually, and that
she did not like him and never would.
