DEATH OF MRS. DELLA POSTON.
EStimabIe Lady Died al Green Cove
SPRINGS ADJUST 3.

Mrs. Della Poston, wife of Mr.. Fred
Poston, died Monday night, at II O'Clock.
Because of its suddenness the death Of
this estimsble lady came as great shock
TO her many friends and the public IN
general, because very few knew she was
sick at all, and none, not even the attend
ing physician or her husband, realized
the seriousness of her condition.
Mrs. Poston, prior to her marriage g,
was Miss Della Albritton, of Callahan.
She and Mr.. PoSton were married about
two years ago, and about a year ago they
moved to Green Cove Springs and Mr.
Poston accepted the position of head
salesman with the Wilson Mercantile Co.
Since moving here she endeared her
self to all who came in contact with her
by her gentle manner and loveable dis
position. All who knew her loved her,
all who associated with her were eIevat-
ed by the contact. Her heart was a
stOrehouse of purity, tenderness and love
1t seemed pity for one so young, one
with so much to live for, and one so
much beloved to die, but, the Supreme
Ruler Of the universe knows best, and
meek submission to His Will is the best
panacea that humanity has found in the
hours of bitter bereavement, sorrow and
trial.
Mrs. Poston was a devout member OF
the Methodist church, and hers was a
beautiful and uDs9lfish christian life

COLOVED BAPTISHAL NEAR HAMPTON.
Business Like Ceremony Performed In
BOatdFaln Creek Sunday.

Parson Murray. colored Baptist and
valiant spldier of the Aoss, has put in
some heavy ticks of late and made many
converts among his people. Last Sun
day he rounded up fourteen new mem
bers of his flock. and a baptism of them
took place OH Boatdrain creek, west Of
Hampton, in the afternoon.
The weather being very uncertain
these days Parson Murray, in order to
expedite the work, had engaged Cor
nelius Yates, q worthy negro feet I0La
inches tall, to do the dipping. The creek
was high, the current strong and the
bottom Doggy, but ''Corpy" weighs $50
pounds, wears No, l6 shoes and could
stand as firm as light ohse. He had
officisted on former occasions and had
been known, when a cloqs looked too
threatening. to dip two candidates at
time. The news of the baptism had
been spread and large number of white

SURVEY OF CANAL ROUTES COMPLETED
Strong Probability That Work On Ship
Canal Will Soon Begin.

st. Augustine, Aug. 16.-While it is
doubtful if anything definite will be
given ont regarding the matter until the
War Department in Washington has
passed on the recommendations submit
ted by the special board of engineers
through Col. Dan G. Kingman regarding
the hest route fer ship canal across
Florida, it can be almost definitely stat
ed that these recommendations Will
name rsute leading down the st. Johns
river for some distance and thence west
ward to the gulf.
Beginning over year ago steps were
taken preparatory to the survey Of a
route for the ship canal across the state
and at the same time for the Surveying
of the waterways down the east coast as
provided for in the bill for Boston to
Key West waterway, introduced i'll con-
gress by Congressman ]. Hampton
Moore, of Philadelphia, and passed.
The surveys for the ship canal have
been completed and all specifications and
figures forwarded to Washington
through Col. Kingiuan's Office. The
local men in charge of the survey were
somewhat reticent and it has been stated
that nothing could be given out concern
ng the route found the best until the
department has gone over the matter.
One survey followed the old route III
the st. Marys from near Fernandins
and leading westward to the Suwanet
AMI down that stream to the gulf.
Another survey followed the St. johns
from its mouth for some distance anC
then struck across Bradford county anC
on to the gulf. Still another began a
the historic Matanzss inlet south of St
Augustine and cut straight across st
Johns, Putnam and other counties TO
the gulf All point in the direction o
Cedar Keys. On each line or surve!
careful measurements were taken re
garding the amount of rainfall dUrinJ
the year, the character and quality o
the soil, and information was also secur
ed regarding the water available fron
the lakes of the interior for supplying
locks for lock canal The survey wa
no small undertaking and required man,
months of effort by trained and skille
men in charge of competent field Ell
gineers.
1t has come on pretty straight author
ity from Washington that the prelim
nary steps will be taken in the next col
gress to start actual work upon this III
dertakinG. 1t is believed to be certai
that an appropriation will be made an
work begun within five years. Unlei
unforeseen obstacles arise this will prov
to b1 n fact, although there Is the pc
sibility of the government following III
old line down the coast to Key West il
stead. But pressure is being brougl
to have the work begun upon the shi
canal, thus making it reality instea
of dream.

ran off the road into the ponds, where,
on account of thick underbrush and
Doggy bottoms, Mr.. Riggs could not fol-

duck so that the dogs head got under

An Attractive Tie,

One of the smartest effect is made
by cutting a nine-inch square of Per-
sian chiffon, to which is stitched sat.
in ribbon an inch and a half wide.
The ribbon is sewed 10 the right
side of chiffon a half-inch In from the
edge, using machine for greater Sc.
curity. The corners are mitred 10
form a square.
Each quarter of this square is then
put into diagonal fine side plaits meet.
Ing at the center of square. This is
easily managed by folding the square
over in one direction. and then doub.
ling in the opposite direction. The
small square thus formed is plated
from the center out.
When the plaits are laid the square
is caught at the central point and
sewed to the back Of small four or
six.looped bow OF satin ribbon to

Equally new but scarcely so attrac.
