IN SOCIETY.
Shower For Bride To-B


was the reception and miscella-
neous shower given by Misses
Katherine and Rina Price Thurs
day afternoon in honor of their
cousin, Miss Ruth Lynn Wallace
whose marriage to Mr.. William
Carl Eichenberger Of San An
tonic, Texas, takes place at the
family home next Wednesday ev-
ening.
A more delightful hospitality
could not be found and the beau
tifully appointed /. D. Price
home was certainly the scene of
a very large and happy gather
ing Of handsomely gowned la
dies.
Throughout the home the one
idea in decorations was japanese
and was as perfectly carried out
as anything could be. In the re-
ception hall the purple wisteria,
the national flower of Japan, en-
twined with ivy, was used to ar
tistic effect and admired by all
who entered.
At the hall door the guests
were received by Mrs. ]. G. Her
ron, who wore a beautiful silk
reception dress, and from there
the guests were received by
Miss Louise Wallace who led the
way to the receiving line, which
stood in the hallway, and was
composed Of Misses Katherine
Price, Ruth Wallace, Mrs. Lon
L. Campbell, Miss Guila Chunn,
Miss Rina Price, Miss Rina Wal
lace, Miss Margaret Van Dyke,
Mrs. I. D. Price, Mrs. John w.
Wallace, Mrs. Rina Wishon, Mrs.
P. Fl. Van Dyke, Mrs M. B.
Wishon, Mrs. Kate Hurt and
Mrs: R. w. Wallace.
In the rear of the hall a little
Japanese tea room was fitted up,
where tea was poured by Misses
Stella Wallace and Mary Bains,
who wore regular Japanese
robes. In this room were placed
little tables, covered with doylies
of japanese designs; the walls
and ceilings were hung with Ian
terms and umbrellas.
After a visit to the tea room,
the guests. we've escorted to the
dining room by Misses Mabel
Stayton, Bessie Watson and Rina
Wallace, Mrs. Clyde n. Wood
and Mrs. Peyton Ferguson and
and here was served brick
cream, cake and olives by Misses
Mildred Reamey and Mary Nc
Donald, who were also dressed to
represent Japanese serving
maids.
The dining room was done in
chrysanthemums, ferns and par
asols, the table being laid with
hand-painted center piece and
doylies in Japanese design.
In the parlor, the shower pre-
sents to the popular bride made
a beautiful array of handsome
linen pieces, cut glass and silver
and were much admired by the
more than hundred ladies who
called to pay compliment TO the
bride-elect and hostesses.
For the afternoon Miss Wal
lace wore q beautiful reception
costume Of yellow chiffon over
nessalaine, which was very be-
conaing to her brunette style Of
beauty.

trimming. while Miss Rina

HARD ON LAKE CITY

A newspaper printed at Waukegan,
H., prints the following about Lake
City for so long a time the education
al center of the state
Lake City is within 200 miles OF
Miami. This location is in the north
central part of the state and is wild,
desperate and lonely land, where men
carry guns and shoot at sight and on
the slightest provocation. The houses
are built on stills in marshy ground
and it is declared that in the heart
of the village the pigs root beneath
the dwellings One man is known to
have seventeen killings to his credit
seventeen notches On the butt of MS
gun.
The stranger is disliked and al
most unknown in this territory and
in some spots, outside Of the villages
and cities, it is declared that many
of the crackers" do not know thai
the civil war is over but still per
sist in the old customs to a great ex
tent"

old congressional district in tlf'

Had you noticed that Mr.. Bailey
voted last week for the LaFollette

of senators?
And, furthermore, did you observe
that Mr. Bailey has resigned from the

session to save Mr.. Lorimer?
All of which, occurring just before
Mr. Bailey's campaign opens, suggests

Senator Bryan warned the people

Senator Bryan warned the people
of Florida against the election Of Mr..
.Blount because he was being support
ed by Mr.. George Harvey, editor of
Harper's Weekly which Mr.. Bryan
said was controlled and owned by the
trusts. To have Mr.. Harvey support
ing him was a signal of danger
Now Mr.. Harvey is advocating the
nomination OF Governor Woodrow
Wilson by the democrats and the
Pensacola News wants to know if this
be a signal of danger is Senator Bry-
an going to drop Woodrow Wilson
1t seems to us that the Pensacola
News is taxing an all-under-hold.

THE WORLDS LONGEST STRIDE
TOWARD PEACE

The arbitration treaties recently
signed by the United States with
Great Britain and with France mark
the longest stride toward worldwide
or enduring peace since nations be-
gan.
Within recent decades the princi-
pie of arbitration has made wondrous
Roadway and has accomplished many
practical results. Issues that would
have kindled war a century ago are
today easily adjusted by civil means.
The establishment of The Hague
| tribunal was considered a browning
achievement and the restraint it has
thrown about hostile tendencies has
been remarkable.
But all these results are outshone
by the treaties that were virtually
consumated last week between this
government and two of the foremost
! nations of Europe Heretofore the
powers have Deen willing to submit
| many matters TO arbitration, but
when a question involved so-called
national honor or vital interest" an
exception was made And it rested
with the individual nation to deter
mine whether the issue was of such
character.
The vital fact concerning these new
treaties is that they make no excep-
tons Of the nation. They apply to
all differences that may arise No
matter what may be the dispute be-
tween the United States and England
or between the United States and
France, it will be submitted to peace
full adjudication.
The detail terms of the agreements
greatly strengthen this purpose 1t
is provided that when differences
arise there must first, be a year of
diplomatic negotiations between the
two parties at variance. If this fails
La commission of The Hague tribunal
shall endeavor to bring about a set
Element without actually carrying the
matter before the court. AS a final
resort the question is to be heard by
the tribunal itself and it's decision
will be considered binding.
Thus, as the New York Times hap
PLY remarks. triple brake is put up
on the wheels of war A period of
cooling years is interposed between
the origin of the dispute and its set
Element, if the latter proves at all
difficult. Hot impulses are held in
leash until reason can assert itself.
The disgruntled nations are required
to count ten, a thousand times over
and the logical result will be an end
of anger. And when this is accom-
plished it will be easy, as a rule. to
reach pacific and satisfactory under
standing.
These treaties were signed last
week by Secretary of State. Knox, in
behalf of the United States, and Am
bassador Bryce and Ambassador Jes-
surand, representing respectively the
English and the French governments
There is no doubt that in the near
future the treaties Will be ratified by
the senate and by the proper authori-
ties of the other two nations
Negotiations for similar agreements
have been opened by the United
States with Germany. Sweden, the
Netherlands and Japan. There is no
reason to doubt that in due time they
will all favorably respond and thus a
practical league of peace will he es-
tablished.
No achievement could bring truerI
glory to our nation or richer --es-
sing to mankind.-Atlanta Journal

BEST STORY OF THE DAY
A BaIky Mule.

A wholesale feed house owned a
balky mule, named Napoleon, and en-
ployed an old negro manner Abe to
drive him.
One day when Napoleon baked

to get him to start Abe went to a
store to telephone his employers.
The following was Abe's end OF
the conversation:

OH, YOU KIDS! WATCH OUT, OR

The Democrat seconds the nomina-
ton of Hon. Frank Harris for govern
or. He would make Florida a grand,
good chief executiye.-Live Oak Dem
ocrat.
Editor Frank Harris of the Ocala
Banner is being urged to run for the
position of governor of Florida If
he becomes a candidate he will not
be compelled to join Mr.. Milton in an
attempt to curtail advertising expens,
es. We don't believe there is a paper
in the state that would charge Broth
er Harris one cent for his announce
ment, or any other advertising he
might want. The pure admiration for
the man by the press would just nat
urally open wide the editorial col
umns for his free use. Tackle the
job, Brother Harris, and let the news
paper men of the state show to the
world what a power they are in the
land.-Inverness Chronicle.
Editor Frank Harris of the Ocala
Banner, having been spoken of for
probate judge of Marion county, the
press of the state, with one acclaim,
lis suggesting the unanimous endorse
ment of the move on the part of the
voters of old Marion. The Barlow
Record speaks most approvingly of
the move in the following apt way:
For over thirty years he has
fought for the upbuilding of his city.
Through the lean years that followed
the panic of '93 and the freeze of '95,
when prosperity existed only as
hope or memory, he stood to his
Banner and made it a rallying point
for determined effort for better con-
ditions. His people have honored
him with office, but always one of
honor without profit. 1t is time for.
them to recognize him in a more sub
stantial way."-St. Augustine Meteor.
