FIRST ARREST MADE BY CITY
AUTHORITIES IN THE MOVE TO

coROINe TO GRADE.

City Engineer L. Earle Thornton
Yesterday was a prosecuting witness
in the case Of Jessie Blount, who re-
sides at 3O6 East Chase street, and
who is charged with violation OF
section 1O7, city code, by constructing
a sidewalk less than six feet IN width
at No. 800 East Chase street. The
case did not go to trial, the derend-
ant not having been prepared Tor
such a move. Upon request, con-
tinuance was granted until this morn
ing at 8 o'clock.
This is the first of series OF cases
witch are in prospect against a num-
Der of property owners who have, II
is alleged, had sidewalks constructed
either not in conformity to grade or
not Of the required width. Such a
move is being pushed by city OtnclaIs
who desire that everything IN the
sidewalk line shall be uniform and
conform strictly to grade. II property
owners refuse TO do it, the city IS
prepared to handle the work and no
later than the late regular meeting OF

was ordered TO remedy sidewalk con-
struction contrary to law, on North

WITCH GETS
2 R|CHLY-MADE
AUTOMOBILES
MOST ENTHUSIASTS
TIC AUToIsT BRINGS TO CITY
COUPLE OF FINELY APPOINTED
CARS, PORTIONS OF WHICH
WERE BUILT TO FOLLOW HIS
PRACTICAL IDEAS.

Two richly appointed Rambler
make automobiles we're received here
direct from the factory yesterday by
w. L. Witch, who Is conceded to be
the most enthusiastic OF local autOistS
and as soon as possible the two fine
vehicles were taken from the freight
depot under their own power and
speeded to the gentleman's home in
the northern part Of the city.
One Of the cars is a 6O-hOrsepOwer
automobile, and was built in line
with suggestions made by Mr.. Wit
itch, who visited the factory in his
old Rambler, going all the way to
that place in the state of Wisconsin
from Pensacola. He was heard with
close attention when suggestions were
offered, as the manufacturers well
know that a man who travelled from
one side Of the United States to the
other would find out defects if any
existed in a machine. One feature
is the substitution of aluminium for
rubber and a 3-paTt cOllapsible storm
glass. Another feature is rest for
an auto trunk, a stOrm-prOOf box car
ried behind. The 60-horsepOwer car,
which sells at $4,000, has affixed the
old speed used on the old ma
chine from Pensacola as far as Du-
Iuth, MINI. It was placed thereon
at Mr. Wittich's suggestion. When
he left Pensacola the speedometer
registered exactly 1000 miles. Yester-
day it showed up for 3,46S.S miles,
which minus a thousand, denotes the
actual number of miles Mr.. Witch
guided personally the old machine.
The other automobile received by
him is a 40-horsepower Rambler, for
which he paid $3.50. He proposes
to use the big machine on long trip,
possibly through the west.

GIFT FOR
SILVER SERVICE
JACKSONVILLE FIRM HAS PLACE
OF HoNOR-A CHECK FOR S1oo
WAS SENT TO BOARD OF TRADE
FOR FLORIDA SILVER SERVICE

To the firm Of Greenleaf & Crosby
belongs the honor Of heading the list
Of contributors to the silver service
fund for the battIeshfp Florida. This
matter was taken up several weeks
ago by the Board Of Trade, and tnvi-
tatiOns were issued to all communities
and private individuals of the state 70
assist in the enterprise. The first Of
the responses received was that of
the Greenleaf & Crosby Company,
which reads as follows:
Mr.. W. A. BOUrs, President Of the
Board of Trade:
Dear Sir: As we fully realize the
great compliment paid our fair state
in naming the largest battleship OF
the American navy FLORIDA and
feeling that this is a very important
movement on the part Of the Board Of
Trade, we take pleasure n handing
a check for 500 as our contribution
to the fund for the silver service.
The people throughout the state
should contribute literally toward
getting up something handsome, and
wishing you success in the undertake
ing, We are,
Yours very truly,
GREENLEAF & CROSBY co.
With the receipt of the gift from
Greenleaf & Crosby Co, the enthus-
iasm in the project is greatly ad-
vanced, and it is believed that other
donations will speedily follow. 1t is
a matter Of history in the state of
Florida how the late United States
Senator w. J. Bryan struggled to
have the new ship named after this
state, and how his efforts finally met
with success. Every gift that is made
toward the fund for a silver service
will. to a certain extent, be also
tribute to the memory Of Senator
Bryan for his faithful and patriotic
work.
Other donations will undoubtedly
follow the. one above, as IN various
cities of Florida the commercial and
business organizations have the sub
ject under consideration, and are
working hard to assist in the worthy
cause. Hundreds have signif1ed their
interest in the movement and have
given assurance that they will aid the
fund by liberal donations.
