REV. Mr.. HARRISON TO LEAVE
OCALA
COMMITTEE.

Rev Geo. Hendree Harrison has
rendered his resignation as rector OF
Grace Episcopal church, and will take
up work in Jacksonville in a few
weeks. Mr. Harrison's resignation
was regretfully accepted at a special
meeting of the vestry on Tuesday af-
ternoon.
His departure will cause regret, not
only by the members of Mr.. Harri-
sons church, but also by many peo-
pie in Ocala outside of his congrega-
ton, who have learned to know and
esteem him.
Mr. HarrisOn's connection with
Grace church has been one of entire
harmony with his vestry and congre-
cation, and his administration Of the
affairs of the parish has resulted in
the accomplishing of much good and
substantial work, which will long
stand as testimonial to his faithful
and efficient labors.
His new duties will be of a mission
airy character, and as he is peculiarly
adapted to work of this kind there
is nc doubt but that he will be as sue
cessful in Jacksonville as he has been
in Ocala.
1t is a matter of regret that Grace
church and Ocala should lose such a
good rector and citizen. but it is
source of qualification to Mr.. Harri-
sons friends to know that he has
been selected for a work of as much
Importance as that to which he has
been called.

KEY WEST GREAT TERMINAL

When eHnry NJ. Flagler returned
from his winters sojOurn in southern
Florida to New York, says the Cincin-
natl Enquirer, his friends in all sim
cerity congratulated him upon his ap-
pearance Of perfect health. Seventy
nine years, a multi-millionaire before
he was fifty, he undertook some If
teen years ago to do all along the east
coast Of Florida what the founder Of
the Plant system of railways did in
the western half of Florida. 1t was
characteristic of Mr.. Flagler that he
should undertake the construction Of
a railway system entirely with his
own means.
1t was presumed that the apparent
perfect health which Mr.. FIagler
brought back from Florida might in
part be due to ,ne practical compile
ton of that unique and extraordinary
railway system, extending like gigan-
tic ramparts or a massive sea wall
around the south coast of Florida TO

The Tennyson centenary brought
out a lot of anecdotes about the poet.
Here is one of them:
A very dear old friend Of Tenny-
sons returned to England with his
wife from Persia>,after a long absence
from home. Mr.. A. at once wrote to
Tennyson inviting him to visit them
at the house he had taken at Shep-
herds Bush. Tennyson called on

down patiently enough in the little
drawing-room, the floor of which was
spread with beautiful white rug, fresh
from Persia. Time, after long while,
began to hang heavy on the poets
hands, and seeing an inkstand, pens,
and paper on a table he sat down and
began to indite letter.
Doing so, he unluckily turned the
ink right over the precious white Per
sian rug. Mary! Jane! SARAH"
cried the distracted man. "Help!"
The maid of all work came to the
rescue. Sighting the damage, she new

the milkman, and threw its contents
over the carpet. Down on your
knees, sir!" she cried. And down on
his knees the old poet and the girl
went together, and with relays of mill
and clean cloths worked with such q
will that at length no trace of the inh
was visible. Tennyson seized his hat

HOW To Spend A

Great Fun-Makine Play to Be Seen

away and wills the young man seven
millions provided he spends the first
bequest within twelve months. A list
of queer conditions are tackled on the
will, but Monty" being a good ma
tured chap, sees fun ahead and takes
up the gauntlet.
Did you ever try to spend million
in a year? From the difficulties en-
countered by Brewster it would seem
that the spending of ten hundred
