service in the Catholic church Sunday
evening.
Mr.. Geo. R. Gomph, late cashier of
the Fort Dallas National bank, has
returned to Miami. He will be a wit
ness in the Brown trial for the gov
ernment, which was to commence
yesterday, to be tried by Judge E. M

Mrs. Julia Howell arrived Wednes-

The work on the new city dock was
brought to standstill Saturday by
the motor on the pile driver breaking
down. Up to the time of the acci-
dent the piles were being put down
at lively rate. Another motor was
secured Wednesday and the piling is
being rapidly driven. Mr.. Mobley
expects to complete. the pile driving
in day or two, so the first or mid.
die of next week should see the con-
nection made to the old dock at fish
house No. 5, where the new dock
will stop until funds are secured to
carry it further out.
The rapid rise of a man to a posi-
ton of the greatest responsibility is
exemplified in that of the incoming
president of the New York Central
railroad, Mr.. w. c. Brown, who as
sumes thei presidency of the above
named road on the 1st of February.
He began his railroad career as a
wood corder on a Milwaukee and St.
Paul locomotive in 1869, when 16
years old. Within two years he be-
came telegraph operator and rose
rapidly to many responsible positions.
Mr.. Brown is an own cousin to Mrs.
Adhemar Brady, of this place, and
naturally she feels very proud of the
distinguished position he has been
called upon to fill.

Records Must Be at County Sea

RecOrOS MUST be at County Seat
Brevard's newly elected county
treasurer, Mr.. R. F. Hatch, has made
the discovery that he cannot remove
the treasurer's books and records
from the county seat and keep them
at his home in Rockledge, hence he
has secured Ex-Treasurer John Henry
to act for him until such time that he
can arrange his business affairs so as
to remove to the county seat and take
charge of the treasurer's office him
self.
Mr.. Hatch made the run for treas
urer under legal advisement that he
could attend to the duties of that of
fee at Rockledge as long as he met
with the county commissioners and
school board first of each month.
There is no statute prohibiting such
being done; but the constitution of
Florida, which is higher than any
statute, bears plainly upon this SUBJ
ject and reads as follows:
Article XVI, section 4.-Miscella-
neous Provisions-All county officers
shall hold their respective offices, and
keep their official books and records,
at the county seats of their counties;
and the clerk and sheriff shall either
reside or have sworn deputy within
two miles of the county seat.

Park Dramatic Company

The Park Dramatic company is
playing here in Titusville this entire
week under their own canvas and
have played some very interesting
and instructive dramas. The mem
bers of the company are experienced
in stage work and the support in ev-
cry act has been fine.
Monday night they played Lena
Rivers to fairly well filled tent not
withstanding the attraction of Co
burns Minstrels at the opera house,
and each night so far they have had
a splendid patronage for the size of
this town; Tuesday night, Tempest
and Sunshine was the play; Wednes-
day night, the high class and inspir-
ing drama, Thelma; yesterday after
noon at matinee, Lena Rivers was
given again by special request; last
night the play was The Great West;
tonight the show will be Queen BeSS.
These plays are away above the
average dramatic tent shows and ev-
eryone who has attended them has
been highly pleased. With special
scenery and fairly full stage effects
the company is enabled to make an
as attractive presentation under can
vas as seen in many theatrical halls.
After concluding their weeks en-
tertainment here tomorrow night
they go to New Smyrna.

Coburn,s Fine Minstrel Show

Coburn's minstrels played to a
small but very appreciative house
here Monday night. This show is
first class in every respect and the
fun they presented was fast and fu-
rious, the songs the newest the dane
ing unsurpassed and the orchestra
especially fine. The jokes were new,
bright, clever and really witty---the
old-time ones being buried so deep
they cannot be heard. The best min

Auto Service to Palm Beach

The Jacksonville Metropolis is au-
thority for the statement that the
Florida East Coast Hotel company is
about to inaugurate an automobile
service between Ormond, Daytona
and Palm Beach, and while the THE
STAR wishes the enterprise success it
hardly thinks such a scheme practi-
cable under the present condition of
certain stretches of roads between
Oak Hill and the charming city on
Lake Worth.
Here is what the Metropolis says:
"A regular line of automobile SER
vice between Ormond, Daytona and
Palm Beach is about to be inaugu-
rated by the Florida East Coast Hotel
company for the benefit of the guests
of the hotels of those resorts. The
service will be furnished by three 40
horse power A. L. Co. cars, which
were shipped to them a few days ago
by the American LocomObile COM
pany.
'The cars were selected after a
competitive investigation of various
makes. It's said that one cOnsidera-
tiOn Of Importance was the distinc-
tive feature of a direct drive on both
the third and fourth speeds in the
A. L. Co. cars which will enable the
chaffeurs in the sandy roads to slip
from the highest speed into the next
one lower and still be on a direct
drive"

There are advantages 20 nearly all po-
sitions. and those connected with depart
ment stores include a reduction in price
Of all articles. Possibly that is a tempta-
ton 70 buy more than IS needed. but there
are plenty OF women who resist 1t. No
employer considers anything beyond abil-

Neatness means cleanliness OF body and
clothing. and does not necessltste strict
adherence TO fashion. The chief complaint
against working girls is the tendency 20
not only adopt the newest fashion, but
exaggerate it, and 1t has resulted IN the
ban on rats and pufts. jewelry, and thin
waists.
There is nothing like a uniform for
practical work. The artist dons a huge
apron that is not a bit pretty and a cap
which protects her hair from careless
and paint-smeared hands. Every sensible
houseworker wears big aprons and dust
caps because they are projections and
mean a reduction in labor. The seam
