EDEN

E. H. LeTourneau spent last Sunday
with friends at Walton.
We are glad to report that c. A..
Robinson continues to improve.
We need rain. We have not had
even decent shower in six months.
Some of our residents went to the
ever popular G. B. Y. c. last Saturday.
Mr.. Charles Edason and party at
tended the races at Palm Beach going
down in the Sauna.
Messrs. Gammeter, Thompson and
Wolfe made three days trip up the
north fork of the st. Lucie River the
first of the week.
F. B. Richards has completed the
work he was engaged upon at Sewall
Point, and expects soon to 60 up the
river to put up another windmill.
Messrs. Edason and Merwin and Le-
Tourneau made launch trips to the
county seat the latter part of last week
combining business with pleasure.
The many Eden friends of Mr. and
Mrs. A. C. Fisher. of Boston, Mass,
regret that their Florida itinerary does
not include Indian River this winter
but they promise to do better next
year.
We are sorry the bishop decided II
WAS best to discontinue the services az
st. Pauls. The condition OF the roads
made it impossible for our people to at'

was not equal to the walk in the sand

proud.
H. L. Phillips is busy getting -Vics
boats housed for the season. One is a
speedy little racer, and the other a
handsome large cruising launch, fitted
up with every modern convenience.
Mr.. Phillips expects to extend his
buildings so as to make room for the
increase of business.
We will all be glad when this season
is over and this railroad gets down to
something like a schedule again. We
never know when to expect the mail,
or freight, the express is the only thing
that boasts of any thing like schedule.
1t is hard to imagine what it will be
like when the extension is finished with
an increase of business. At present it
is called the Banana Line, for the
trains all go in lunches.
Mrs. John Miller returned last Thurs
day night from st. Augustine with her
little charge, Helen Salsberg. DR.. Wor-
lev gave ner full instructions as to the
care of the wounds and she goes to the
home every morning to dress them.
The child is recovering nicely and should
love Mrs. Miller all of her days for
doubtless it is to her loving care, and
good nursing she owes her life as well
as to the skill of the surgeons.

An Explanation

After arriving home, on Tuesday sue
ceeding the Teachers Institute, much
to my chagrin, found that unfortu-
nately had lost part of the minutes
of the proceedings; two pages.
Asa result of this, l was compelled
to draw on memory for the larger part
of my report of the proceedings. l
hone that those who were left out in
the published minutes will not think
that there could be any Interior intent,
in the oversights; and none will | am
sure, when they reflect that three of
the neglected ones, Misses Emma
Bell, Josephine Stinson and Emma Hell
seth, count among my strong personal
friends.
Hoping that at the next Institute,
there may be a more careful secretary
selected, assure every teacher, that
each in me has well wisher, and that
| am your friend.
Most truly, B. F. HARDEsTY

crossing on First avenue. In some
unaccountable way team hitched to

market place became free, and work

way west. The horses broke into a
gallop as the wagon ratified over the
Burlington tracks. A freight train
had just pulled over the Iowa Central
crossing and into this the horses
headed. They slipped and stumbled
and came to stop with their noses
almost touching the cars. No dam.
