FATAL TO THE WHITE FLY
I. Pefersburg Invests Largely In Z
Fungus Said to BE Deadly
TO the Pest

st. Petersburg. August 12.-The
Board OF Trade OF ST. Petersburg has
Received $4,000 fungus bearing leaves
fpOm Bradentown. They have been
raised especially and come from A
wiman.
With the fungus on the leaves 1t is
said that a successful enemy OF the
white fly has been discovered and it is
hoped that it will prove SO.
For a long number Of years the Pi-
nellas peninsula enjoyed the honor of
having escaped the devastating scourge
OF white flies which were SO common in
other parts Of the state, but few
years ago in some manner this pest
was transported to the peninsula, and
since this time it's increase in numbers
has slowly but surely kept up. Many
different ways and means have been
devised for the prevention Of the in
sect, but they all seemed futile. A So
luton Of gold dust and water is per-
haps the commonest spray used for the
trees.
With these leaves which have been
especially prepared for this purpose 1t
is hoped to eventually stamp out the
dangerous little fly. These fungus
bearing leaves are to be distributed
among all the orange and citrus grow
ers in the vicinity of St. Petersburg
A solution will be made from the fun
gus spores and the trees sprayed.
Alexander Linn, acting secretary OF
the Board Of Trade, will personally su-
nervise the distribution and attention
Ill be paid especially that every
grower receives a sufficient quantity to
stamp out the pest.

BELIEVE IN BAILEY


Galveston, Texas, August 12.-Before
adjourning last night the democratic
state convention passed a resolution
endorsing Senator. Joseph W. Bailey
Of Texas as the next nominee of the
democratic party for president Of the
United States. The convention also
endorsed the nomination by the recent
primary of o. B. Colquit for governor
and A. D. Davidson for lieutenant gov
ernor. The tariff plank in the state
platform affirms the stand taken by
the national party in 1896 as being
against the admission of free raw ma
terials while manufactured articles are
protected by the tariff. The conven-
tion ended, as it began, with absolute
unanimity.

tiai deafness follows. If you have
ringing noises in your ears go to

Reelection Of Officers and Complete
New Charter viii be Made
For the Local Nest Of
Owls, No. 1927
RESULT OF NEGLECT
Al o. Herchenroder, Organizer VIII
Have Charge Of the New CHARTS
and Once Again Place
the Order on Footing.


The local Nest OF Owls No. 1927,
will be recognized and once again
become the strong order that 1t was
last spring. when Mr.. AL D. Aerchen-
roder, official organizer, departed from
the city Last week when Mr.
Herchenroder was questioned as to
why he was in the city to re-organize
the order Of Owls, which for new
organization, had an exceedingly
large membership, he stated that
through the neglect of management
the local nest was making progress
backwards instead of multiplying as
the order does all over the country
within the period of year after the
organization has been permanently
established.
in this city all of the officers and
members were highly enthused but
during the past six months reaction
has set in and the former progress in
the work is languid and it is for that
reason that Mr.. Herchenroder is back
in the city to instill life ane,i in the
order.
Mr.. Herchenroder has had years OF
experience in the field of organizing,
having worked with the Woodmen OF
the World, Eagles and several other
organizations. During these years he
met with great success and feels very
much disappointed with the feeble eff
forts made by nest No. 1927.
Mr.. Herchenroder has not always
been in the field as lodge organizer,
but four years ago he was manager
of the Bijou theatre in Quincy, in
which he still holds an interest. 1t
was during the summer season when
the theatre was closed that he first
entered into the lodge work in which
he now has the reputation of being the
most successful organizer in the
country and has proven this claim by
his years results.
To have permanent lodge or or
ganization means more than just to
have large enrolment of members,
ii requires finance, dues that must be
paid, otherwise the organization will
be weak and of no merit. The
order Of Owls all over the country has
had phenomenal success, having a
total of 200 600 members, all of good
standing and a creditable reputation.

Won't be Allowed on the Local Stage
Says Chief Of Police Depart
n,ent in Speaking Of sa-
lone Dance.
YOUNG MORALS SPOILED
Commissioner Gray and Chief schev-
ers Watch Performance satur-
day Night to See Moral
Ity is Maintained.

Keokuh, the same as CHICAGO. is
going to prohibit for all time, the
Salome dance and other muscular pro
auctions put on by burlesque shows.
In speaking Of the matter this morn
ing, Chief Schevers gave voice to his
sentiments in the matter Of letting
the lewd things of these perform
ances be given in public. The police
in future will not permit any dances,
finale or Introductory, either, to be
given on the stage of local play
house and local devotees of that class
Of amusement have seen their last of
the dance as it is called, ''The Gay
Morning Glories" being the last COM
pany to introduce an Egyptian-costum-
ed muscle worker at the end of the
performance for few minutes.
Therefore it is probable that the
usual line of jokes, unchaste and de,
lighting to the lower sense of morals,
will be heard but the body exercises
that the nymphs in the attire Of lace
curtains will always be tabooed or as
long as the present administration Of
police departmental affairs continues.
Chief Schevers in speaking of the
matter today, says that morals Of the
young are corrupted by the dance.
The performance was attended Satur.
day night by hundred boys he says.
Like the chief of police, Stewart, OF
Chicago. the local heads Of the police
department say that to them the
dance is like "cat in catnip," and
there, their interest ends, except to
see that the performance is not put
on.
Saturday night, with the appearance
of the California Girls" in the CITY,
the chief of police notified the man
ager Of the troupe of burlesquers
that he would not allow the Salome
act staged and with the commissioner
of the department, sat during the
major portion of the performance to
see that it was not put on" by the
company. =

The loss to the Baker property is

House Furnishings Damaged.
A number of articles of house
furnishings. clothing, and other eff

has occurred in several months to
a private residence. Quite number
of people were attracted to the scene
OF the blaze yesterday afternoon and
for time it looked as though the
three residences might be entirely
consumed by the flames Luckily,
however, water pressure was UP to
standard and the firemen ''on to their
jobs so that the result was not so
disastrous as it might have been.
Mrs. D. Gilkenson, S26 1ngles Ave.

experience. ''My little girl had

Itinuously My sister recommended
