Alleged TO Have Robbed
Old Brick Yard.

TrOt Robinson and Tom Glass were
arrested late Thursday evening for
having had a hand in the brass stolen
from the old brink yard, of which
John Dewire was tried several weeks
ago and held to the grand jury by

in on the deal by himself, but had
been unable to get any thing definite
until Thursday, when the arrest fol-
lowed. The prisoners were arranged
before Judge Pendleton Thursday
night. Glass plead guilty and was
held to the grand jury under a 5000
bond. Robinson pleaded not guilty
and his trial was set for Friday
night.

RETURNS FROM
FLORIDA TRIP
Mr.. Vic Bloomfield Reports Fine Time
And Good Fishing
Buys Winter Home.

Mr.. Vie Bloomfield returned from
Daytona, Fla, Thursday night, where
he has been several weeks, recuper-
ating. Mr.. Bloomfield shows that he
has been in warm climate and eX-
posed to the hot rays of the sun a
great deal as he is very much sun
burned.
Mr.. Bloomfield was very favOrably
impressed with Daytona and enjoyed
his stay very much. DaytOna Is on
the beech and has a population Of
about $500. 1t is a great place for
automobiles as the roads are good
and Mr.. Bloomfield says there are
any number of them there.
While on his visit Mr.. Bloomfield
bought him a winter home in Day
tona. The place is situated in one
of the prettiest parts of the city
and has an orange grove with about
one hundred trees in it. The trees
are now bearing and he has sold the
entire crop to the hotel in that city.
4 frame house is now on the lot,
but it is Mr.. BlOomfeld's intention to
tear it down at once, and build him
"a handsome winter home.
Mr.. Bloomfield does not claim to
be much of fisherman, but fishing
is good and while there. he with Mr..
Resin Scobee, who was there at the
same time, fshed quite good deal,
not so much for the fish but just TO
pass the time away. One day he
says they had fished all day and had
only been getting a few small ones,
but about four o'clock in the after
noon their luck changed and he got
la 52-inch trout on his hook which
took about seven men to pull it out.
It weighted about forty pounds and
he says it made a meal for fifty or
sixty guests at the hotel. Mr.. Bloom
field says you do not have to believe
this fish story, unless you want to.

NEW PLANT
George Brothers Make Own Light and
Have Put in Water Sys-
tenn of Their Own.

George Brothers have just COM
pleted overhauling and remodeling
the st. George Hotel and now have
one of the most complete and up

entire building. The capacity of their
light plant is $50 lights. The engines
are so arranged that both can be
run If necessary, OF just one as the
occasion demands. Usually in the
forepart of the night when the load
is heavy, they run both, but later
use only one.
They also have the plant so ar
ranged, that if one machine breaks
down, they can change to the other
and in this way will never be out
Of lights.
They have also installed a complete
water system to be used in case of
nre. The MIGRANTS are so arranged
that water can be thrown fifty feet
from the building in any direction.
On the roof they have placed a water
tower so that the upper part can
be flooded in a few minutes. The

Committed It.

left for dead at the same time as
Mrs. Eliza Gribble and Mrs. Carrie
Olander were murdered here last Fri
day, died today. j. G. Hunter, her
husband, whom she accused in an in
coherent statement last Saturday of
having assaulted her, is being held
by the police.
After obtaining from Hunter the
admission that he had visited the
home of his wife, from whom he is
separated, on the day of the murders,
the police were compelled to partially
eliminate him from suspicion of be-
ing the murderer. This leaves the
original theory that the murders
were the result of a negro's plan to
attack Mrs. Olander.
