MURDER AT MARTEL

We are informed by Deputy Sheriff
Hutson that a murder was committed
at Martel Saturday night.
Jim Wilkerson stabbed Jim Jacobs
with a knife or razor, and from the
effects of which the man died.
Both parties to the tragedy are col
ored. Jim Jacobs, the murdered man,
worked for Mr.. Kallenberger, when he
was operating a bar in this city.
Deputy Sheriff Lafayette Miller got
on trail of the murderer and scented
it all Sunday night and finally thought
that he had come to Ocala and sur
rendered to the sheriff, but a visit to
that Office revealed the fact that he
had not done so.
1t instantly occurred to Deputy
Sheriff Hutson that the man was in
hiding in Ocala, so he took his stand
at the Commercial Bank, and just as
he did so he happened to spy Wilker-
son crossing Exposition street two or
three blocks away. Mr.. HutsOn made
rapid speed around two or three
blocks and intercepted his man face
to face not very far away.
Come along, jim" he said; lit is
all up with you" 81 didn't know that
you knew me, Mr.. Hutson," was the
mans only response. He was hand
cuffed and marched off to Jail.

THE TOURING TRIP FROM TAM
PA TO JACKSONVILLE

The first official touring trip from
Tampa to Jacksonville will start from
Tampa in front of the Times office on
the morning o; November %, and will
stop over in Gainesville the first
mgh;.
We are sorry that the arrangement
was not made to have the stOp-Over in
Ocala for the reason that our fair will
then be in progress, and all of Gaines
vile is supposed to be here on that
occasion. When this fact is brought
to the attention of those who have
marked out the official program this
part of it may be changed.
Starting at Tampa the autoists
will pass through Plant City, Zephyr
hills, Greer, Dade City, Trilby, Brooks
vile, Inverness, DunnelOn, Ocala, An
thony, Mcintosh, Micanopy and
Gainesville. Here, unless the plans
are changed, the autoists will rest,
dine and swap stories.
The next day. resuming their trip
to Jacksonville, they will leave Gaines
vile and will pass through Starke,,
Highlands and on to Jacksonville.
The autoists will pass through the
counties of Hillsborough, Pasco, Her
nando, Citrus, Marion, Alachua, Brad
ford, Clay and DuvaL
1t is really not a west coast trip by
any means, as most Of the counties
the autoists will pass through are in
the very center of the state. and for
a long distance the autoists will travel
on the very backbone of the peninsu-
lar where the waters divide, some
streams finding their way to the gulf
and some to the Atlantic.
Going from Jacksonville to Tampa,
along the selected eastern route, the
autoists, starting from the metropolis,
will touch at st. Augustine, Ormond,
Daytona, DeLand, Orange City, Enter
prise, OSteen, Sanford, Orlando, kis-
simmee, Loughman, Haines City, Win
ter Haven, Barlow, Lakeland, Plant
City, Tampa, passing through the
counties of Duval, st. Johns, Volusia,
Orange, Osceola, Polk and Hillsbor-
ough.
Of course, in time the route will be
more or less altered, and will be made
more or less to go as the crow flies.
At the present moment annihilating
space is not the thing sought for so
much as making the test an endur-
ance one. 1t is possible to make the
distance between the two cities-Tam-
pa and Observation-Disclosures within
two hundred miles.
