| The Montpelier Opera company
| presented Pinafore at Cokeville last
Night. The opera house was filled
from "cellar to garrett" and the pro-

Quite 'bunch' went with the com

ball game between the Cokeville

conferred the degree of Master Ma
son upon two candidates. At the
close of the session the members of
King Solomon lodge became the
guests of the sojourning members in

that was fit for kings. After all did
ample justice to the toothsome vi
ands, bob" Sheldon, acting as
toast master, called upon several for
toasts, and each responded in hap
ply vein. The affair was the most
delightful of the several social

I We are receiving from one to half
dozen requests every week for sample
copies of the Examiner. The requests
come mostly from the Mississippi
valley states, but occasionally one
comes from way back east These
requests are no doubt coming as a
result of the booklets, which We're
Issued under the auspices of the
Montpelier Commercial club, a large
number of which have been distri-
buted in the east by the Oregon Short

parties copies of the current issue of

the special edition, which was issued
last July. That edition gives inquir-
ing fasteners fairly good idea of
the resources and advantages of Bear

Issued by the national committee when

Increased to 1912 if Arizona and New
Mexico become states before the con-

The increase from $50 delegates,

can congressional committee. This

ed without change by the committee.

FLORIDA NEWS NOTES.

Pensacola will be the place where
Floridians may view the huge battle
ship named for this state, on Deem
Der 1S. This date has been fixed for
the presentation of the silver service
that Florida will give to her formida-
BILE namesake December IS will be
made a great day in Pensacola and no
doubt people from all portions of the
state will endeavor to attend the cere-
monies on board the ship. Rear Ad-
miral Young, U. S. n, will represent
the navy on the occasion of the pre-
sentation, and this fact is very salts
factory to the Pensacola folks, as the
admiral is very well and pleasantly
known in that city.
Prizes have been awarded in the
contest of the Boys and Girls Alachua
County Corn club and the exhibits
were of such excellence that the
judges had to be very careful in Or
der to make no mistakes. Harvey
Dudley of Newberry won the first
prize, $25 in gold, and the second
prize was awarded Sam Gibbons of
Archer, and the third went to Jack
Macarthur of Gainesville. There were
a number of special prizes ranging in
value from $25 to 81, and these were
awarded to boys and girls who show
ed success in their work, even though
the three mentioned had obtained bet
ter results.

ers' association has gone into bust
ness in a businesslike manner. 1t has
purchased an auto truck with a capac-
ity of 1O5 boxes to be used in trans
porting the crop to the shipping point.
Pensacola evidently has a police
force that will compare favorably
with the best anywhere in the coun-
try. In an examination of one watch
a few days ago, six made 100, while
four made 80.
Florida's velvet bean crop will be
larger than ever this year.
Despite-the statement published in
an Atlanta newspaper, Senator Don
{. McMullen OF Hillsborough county
denies that he will be a candidate for
congress from the First district and
says he has never given a thought to
running for that office.
Prospectors are reaching Miami in
large numbers, and they are seeking
to secure country property, especially
such as has at least a portion of the
lands under cultivation or set in
groves.
Pensacola oystermen are anticipat-
ing the greatest season in the history
of the industry. The oyster beds in
Escambia bay are. said to be in fine
condition, with splendid crops ready
for the gathering. The Florida laws
protecting the oyster up to certain
size, which has been in force for the
past three years, has no doubt been
of the greatest benefit to the industry.

JOSEPH PULITZER is DEAD
Proprietor of New York World Passes
Away at Charleston, S. c,

Away dl " ~
Charleston, s. C.-Joseph Pulitzer,
proprietor of the New York World
and the st. Louis Post-Dispatch, and
one of the most commanding figures
in modern journalism, died aboard
his yacht, the Liberty, in Charleston
harbor.
The immediate cause of Mr.. Pulit-
zer's death was heart failure. He had
been in ill health for several days,
but until a few hours before the end,
none of those around him had any
suspicion of the gravity of his condi-
ton.
For more than a quarter Of cen
fury Joseph Pulitzer had been one of
the leading figures in American jour
nalism. Born in Hungary in 1S47, and
educated there, he came to this coun-
try in 1868, enlisted in the Union
army and served as a cavalryman I'M
til the end of the war, when he set
tied in st. Louis, which was for many
years the scene of his journalistic ac-
tivities His early newspaper train
ing was as a reporter and afterwards
city editor, managing editor and part
proprietor of the Westliche Post, ed
tied by Carl Schur.
He bought the st. Louis Dispatch
in 1873 and united it with the Post
as the Dispatch, which, under
the management, became in few
years, one of the best-known and most
widely circulated journals of the sec
ton.
Mr. Pulitzer's entry into New York
Journalism occurred in 1888, when he
bought The World, then paper of
small circulation. Its circulation and
prestige grew rapidly under his gener-
al direction.
Mr. Pulitzer's sight began to fail in
in the late eighties, and after a time
he became blind. Ever since he had
been a partial invalid,
