FUTURE OF MISSION STREET

Mission street presents a singular in
stance of civic growth. Valencia street
gave early promise of being the grea
artery for this district. but II has not
fulfilled the prophecies for its future.
while Mission street, which never held
out prospect of being an important
thoroughfare. has become one of the
most important in the city, and with
better car service to South San Fran
cisco. so that the residents of that
growing district could have the advan-
tage of its stores, theaters and places
of business, Mission street is destined
TO become even a more important thor
oughfare.

COUNCIL MEETING

The council held an interesting ses-
sion last night. Every aldermans
seat was occupied.
Mr. MOOrhead appeared and explain.
ed the measurements for the curbing
On Magnolia street.
The following communication from
the mayor was read:
To the Honorable Board of Aldermen,
City of Ocala:
Gentlemen-A short time ago the
city at great expense paved certain
portions of the streets with vitrified
brick, and while this was done for the
benefit of ordinary traffic and of the
public generally, it was not intended
as a convenience for extraordinary
traffic, nor for the benefit of the few.
1t has been called TO my attention
that wagons loaded with heavy pine
logs are using the streets paved with
brick, with the result that the paving
material is being broken, and the
streets seriously damaged. This is
not an occasional use, but daily pro-
cessions of these teams pass to and
fro over the streets mentioned.
| urge your body to pass some ordi-
nance setting aside certain streets for
the use of wagons engaged in the
hauling of logs, or other heavy mate
rial over a certain weight, and forbid
ding the use Of these streets paved
with brick for that purpose.
I again call your attention to the
failure of the committee appointed to
investigate the practicability of pro-
curing pure water for the city. and
ask that your body insist upon a re-
port. Sufficient time has elapsed for
a thorough investigation, and no ap-
parent reason exists for not making a
report.

EPWoRTH LEAGUE HALLOWEEN
PARTY

The Halloween party given on the
lawn of the Methodist church and
parsonage Friday evening, under the
auspices of the Epworth League, was
a pronounced success, being largely
attended by the young people, who
had a royal good time. The beauti-
full moonlight night was ideal for the
occasion, and to add to the cheerful
ness Of the scene a huge bonfire was
kept burning in the center of the
lawn. Jack-o-lanterns shOne here and
there, revealing features of the most
grotesque character. The guests came
masked, and by eight o'clock the lawn
presented weird scene, with the
many solemn-visaged witches moving
with stately tread around the blazing
fire or stTolling in groups along the
sidewalks and up towards the public
square. striking terror to the hearts
of several who had forgotten the pres
ence of the Halloween season. Next
TO the church stood a coy booth, with
in which Miss Hattie Carlton, arrayeO
in the garb of a witch. revealed to
the guests their past, present and fu-
ture history. The trembling guest,
having been admitted into Cujo's
Cave, was shown a monkey sitting in
tree, and this represented the past:
then the guest was shown into a mir
rOT, and this represented the present,
and before departure each guest was
handed a card, upon which was writ
ten an appropriate stanZa prophetic

with floating apples afforded much
amusement to those who attempted TO

teeth and without the use of their
hands. Several apples were suspend

guests tried their skill in archery by
shooting at the apples with bow and
arrows. I'm this contest Mr.. Wheeler
was the most successful archer. which
meant that Cupid's arrows had pierre

In the midst of the lawn stood reGl
Indian wigwam, which looked quite
picturesque in the moonlight, and
seated within the dimly lighted tent
was the Gypsy fortune teller, Esmcr

! Many and striking were the stories OF
past. present and future fortune as re-
lated by this skilled fortune teller
who was none other than Miss Mary
Bull. Seated near the bonfire, Miss
Mizele delighted many of the guests
with the revelations of palmistry. The
guests were then invited to q table
