REV. MR.. HARRISON TO LEAVE
OCALA

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 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 a 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 no 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 a
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

TRIBUTE TO DR.. POWERS

Last Saturdays issue of the Jack
sOnville Coat of Arms had the follow
ing beautiful notice of the late DR.. w.
H. Powers of this city, whose death
occurred the day following the issue
of the Coat of Arms:
Jacksonville people who knew and
esteemed the late Mr.. Stephen Pow
ers, prominently connected with the
Times-Union for so many years, will
be sorry to learn of the continued and
serious illness of his son, DIR. w. H.
Powers, of Ocala, one of the best
known young physicians in Florida,
and leader in the profession at his
home city, Ocala.
DIR. Powers married Miss Violet
Harris, the second daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Frank Harris of Ocala, and
their home has been one of the most
popular social centers of the city
Their popularity is not confined to
Ocala, for they have friends every
where. especially all over Florida.
The news of DR.. Poweds' continued
illness will be deeply regretted"

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.. Flagler
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
Key West. AS this construction is
now nearly complete, and as Mr.. Flag
Ter did practically finance the 500
miles of railroad with his own funds
and credit, it was presumed that all
that remained Of the financing was to
apply earnings to the payment Of in
terest and principal Of the obligations
secured by Mr.. Flagler upon his own
credit.
Last week there came the announce
ment that Mr.. Flagler had associated
with himself ]. Pierpont Morgan,
whose banking house is to be repre-
scented in the Florida East Coast Line
system by George w. Perkins. This
undoubtedly seems community Of in
terest at least. and the Identification

Lumber for State Capitol

Little Rock, Sept. 2.--At prices less than half what lumber would have brought two years ago,t the State Capitol Commission yester- day afternoon purchased about 2O5, ,OOO feet of dimension stuff. The price paid was from $11 to SIS per thousand feet. The con tract was let to the Wisconsin Arkansas Lumber Co, which was the lowest of seven bidders. The lumber is to be delivered at this price and the successful bidder promises immediate delivery. The lumber to be used for the most part in the placing of the concrete in the building, being us- ed for forms. Speaking Of the failure of the Commission to ad- vertise for bids, Commissioner H.. l.. Remmell yesterday afternoon stated that the Commission got everything by Ocompetitive bid and was getting the material at the least possible cost and much quicker than could be done by waiting o advertise. We have bought everything by competitive bids, "said Gov. Donaghey yester- day, land no one can complain at the prices we are paying, which are much lower than the state ever bought before. We wrote to all the concerns and give them an equal chance. In the letting of the contract for the steel work. the Thomas Fordyce Company was the only one in the state that could handle the work, but we wrote letters to several other concerns in Chicago, New York and other places and the local con cern outbid them all. The foreign concerns would probably have ney CT seen an advertisement and would not have gotten the bids in as early as we desired them. y The executive Committee of the state capitol commission spends the afternoon at the new building every day, personally directing all the work which is being done at the building.
