Is there no remedy for such conditions

the trains loaded with Florida pines
are sidetracked in order to allow the
Cuban pines to whiz by on express time
with the result that the Florida grower
not only suffers the effect OF rate dis

SORROWFUL TRAGEDY
A Young Lad Took His Own
Life on Monday.
Dallas Mcclure, Delirious With
Fever, Shot Himself at the
Home of His Sister.

1t was hoped that the wave of tragedy
which has been prevalent in other sec
tions of the State for the past two
weeks would pass our peaceful com.
munity unobseryed and without rip
pie to disturb the serenity of its QUIET
ness, but in this we were mistaken.
At about $3.50 o'clock Monday after
noon the loud report of a shotgun in the
residence of Engineer Joe Knowles, or.
West Orange avenue, attracted the att
tention of Engineer Gill Totten, living
close by. and an investigation was.be-
gun, knowing Mr.. Knowles was out on
his regular run and that Mrs. Knowles
was visiting in 81. Augustine, leaving
no one at home but young brother OF
Mrs. Knowles.
Entering the house Mr.. Totten found
Mr.. William Foy, brother engineer,
sound asleep in one room and in the
room adjoining most horrible sight
met his gaze.
Fully dressed with the exception of
one shoe and stocking the young man
was lying on the bed with one side of
his face partially blown away and badly
wounded in the head. Beside him lay
the gun which had done the deadly
work, and one toe on the bare foot
still pressed against the trigger, show
ed conclusively how the tragedy had
been planned and executed. On ia
BILE near the bed lay a stained dirk
knife. and an examination of the body
revealed wounds on the throat and on
the chest, Indicating that an attempt
had been made to commit the deed with
the knife before resorting to the gun.
Engineers Foy and Totten lost no
time in informing the officers of the
law and in notifying the brother-in law
at Miami and the sister at ST. Angus
tine. AS the news spread the crowd at
the residence increased, being largely
composed of the former playmates of
the unfortunate boy. and many we're
the kind and sympathetic words spoken
10 his behalf.
A short time after the tragedy Judge
F. L. Hemmings, acting as coroner, or
dered an inquest, and Sheriff Carlton
summoned jury, as follows; L. L.
Bellamy, F. E. Wilson, w. T. Hayes,
h. E, Crooks, w. 1. Bitch and Archie
Lamb.
The evidence submitted conceded
with the facts stated above, and the
further fact that the boy had been sick
with fever for several days and at times
was delirious. After thorough exam
ination the jury rendered verdict to
the effect that death was caused by
gunshot wound apparently inflicted by
his own hand.
Dallas Mcclure was an orphan boy
in his 18th year and we'll grown for his
age. He had previously lived at Green
Cove Springs and near Jacksonville,
coming hear about year ago to reside
with his brother-in-law and sister, Mr..
and Mrs. Joseph Knowles. He was
well known about town, having worked
at various places, and was driving
team for Coates stables when stricken
with his last illness.
The interment took place at Fort
Pierce cemetery Tuesday morning, and
many were the expressions of sorrow
for the absent sister and for the poor
boy whose fevered brain had caused him
to commit the deed of self destruction.
