The St. Lucie County tribune. (Fort Pierce, St. Lucie County, Fla.) 1905-1920, 1910-07-08

ayu TOOK a two years course at the
United States naval war COLLEGE
!, ne automobile naturally found in
Mr.. Willoughby one Of its earliest and
most enthusiastic devotees, and he was
practically the first man in this GENTRY
TO use 1t for long distance touring. and
was certainly the first amateur to do ali
ms own repair work. He drove the
iirSt automobile to make the trim from
washington to Richmond, Va, and he
drove at Newport, r. l., in the first
race ever held on circular track in
the United States. He also captured q
second cut in the first race held at Or
mond Beach. Florida.
Yachting has been a passion with this
remarkable man ever since his bovhood
days. he is number SO on the enroll
ment of the New York Yacht Club,
winch now numbers over 2. 400, and his
collection of cups won in sailing yachts
OF various types probably cannot be
equalled by any other man in this coun-
try. This collection has, in the past
hfteen years, been about doubled by
the cups he has won in steam yachts
and power craft. Motor Boat gives Mr..
Willoughby credit for having designed
and built the first high-speed motor boat
with an automobile engine in the United
States. This was the Seminole, craft
40 feet long and only two feet of beam,
with a four cylinder engine. A number
of years ago, Kuhnhardt, in his work
on Single Handed Cruisers, wrote that
Mr.. Willoughby built the second yawl
rugged yacht ever seen in American
waters. This was the Windward, which
was named after the first sloop yacht
which Mr.. Willoughby owned, and which
captured all the cups offered in her
class in the United States for one whole
season.
Mr.. Willoughby has been both de-
signer and builder of his motor boats.
just as he is now of his aerOpanes. He
constructed Seminole, Torture, Postum
and Flying Fish, all racing boats and
winners of many prizes, and the 60 foot
cruiser Sea Otter, which was the first
motor boat to be equipped with wireless
telegraphy. and Mr.. Willoughby, as
might have been expected, was his own
operator, one of the first amateurs in
the world.
Aeronautics il not by any means new
hobby for Mr.. Willoughby. He built
his earliest aeroplane models in 1888 in
South Florida, constructing them from
drawings he had made of the wings of
the man-of-war hawk, which he cOnsid-
ers the best soaring bird. Two years
later he first tasted the upper air, when
he made two ascensions in spherical bal
looms from Paris. In 1904 he assembled
from st. Louis. and in 1903 from Phila-
delphia. He was the first to navigate
a balloon by plotting its position on a
chart every half hour, in manner sim
liar to that used on ship at sea- and
this plan is now generally followed by
aeronauts. Mr.. Wi|loughby was one
of the Aero club of America.

EDITOR ST. LUCIE TRIBUNE:
Being a subscriber to your good
paper and seeing you take an interest
in the general prosperity of st, Lucie
County, will try and give you and your
readers few hints as to this part of
it. "Five-Mile lis comparatively new
sett lement, but is ambitious to an
alarming extent. as it has already
furnished candidate for the legisIa-
ture and has aspiration toward post
Office and maybe in the not distant
future we will realize our ambitions in
regard to this last, which is badly need.
ed. Also a good general store. Then
when these are added, perhaps we will
enter the list as aspirant for county
seat, if we don't annex Fort Pierce, or
get annexed.
We have fine country, healthy and
we'll watered by both Five lille and Ten
Mile creeks, which at this place are
only from one-half to three fourth
miles .part and come together about a
mile or so south east.
We can raise and do raise anything
that can be raised in St. Lucie county.
We have groves and truck farms
galore, including that of j. A. Alder
man, Messrs. Hampton and G. W.
Walker, Riley Johnson, late candidate
for legislative honors, Messrs. Sykes,
John and Chas. Garlic, Charlie Ed
wards and J. G. Coats, also Messrs.
Barton and Smith. Then there is your
scribes, "Ala-Cottage and Grove"
Perhaps your readers may inquire
why it is named "Ala-Cottage and
Grove. The word Alabama in the
Indian dialect means "here we rest"
or place of rest" and thus we have
REST Cottage and Grove" (Ala-Cot-
tage and Grove) which in time will be
the scribe's trade mark. Come cut and
see what fiue prospect we have and
bring all your friends and enemies too,
a. well as all prospective settlers.
Your scribe has no lax to grind no
land to sell "just yet" We have a
new public school building which is an
honor to the settlement, presided over
by Miss Josephine Summerlin, who, |
am informed, rules with love and rod
too. according as occasion calls.
Now Mr.. Editor. will add we also
have religious services every Sabbath,
at II a. M, by Brother Blanchard, and
2 p. M, prayermeeting by j. S: Coats.
to which all are cordially invited.
Now few disadvantages We have
insects in plenty, and raccoons galore
of the four-footed variety, and we
would like for our representative elect.
to introduce a bill in the next legisla.
ture placing a bounty on the "coons. -
Also insects, as they distroy our crops.
Maybe if the State will put bounty
on their scalps some one of US might
divise means to exterminate the pests.
But Joking aside, we have been terribly
beset by both this season and ! really
think something ought to be done in
the way of wholesale determination
if possible. Respectfully, "ClTIzEN'
