A GYPSY CAMP FOR ocALA

In the heart of every child there is
a vivid fascination for the Gypsy wag-
on as it passes their door. Eagerly
do they press their little faces to the
window pane or elsewhere, and follow
with longing gaze these wonderful,
rowing people, with their pretty dogs
and horses.
The Fannie R. Gary Chapter, Chill
dren of the Confederacy, have ex-
tended an invitation to a Gypsy band,
who will arrive on June 2nd, and
camp with them under the oaks just
opposite the home of their director,
and herewith invite all friends to join
with them in making the occasion one
great success.
The camping grounds will be turned
over to the young people, where the
horse traders, fortune tellers, the
Gypsy queen and the attendants will
entertain them with stringed music
on the grounds, camp fires and happy
voices of both Gypsies and visitors, a
pleasant evening may be anticipated.
In connection there will be a musi-
cal program rendered at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. J. r. Moorhead, a spe-
cial feature of which will be a chick
en- pillau supper, which will be served
on the grounds, from which the young
people hope to realize a small sum
for memorial purposes. After supper
horse trading and fortune telling will
take place

News was received in Ocala Sunday
morning that a negro named Beach
had shot and killed a white man by
the name of Lloyd Grant. AS we'll as
we can ascertain Beach. had been
whipping his wife and complaints had
been made against him for doing so,
Grand and another white man were
deputized to arrest him and take him
before the justice of the district for
trial. Beach warned them that if
they entered his premises that he
would fire upon them. Grant refused
to heed the warning, entered the en-
closure and was near the house when
the negro put his threat into execu-
ton, firing a charge of buckshot into
the unfortunate mans breast just
above the heart, and he died instant
ly.
The sheriff<-of this county, as well
as the sheriff of Lake were summon
ed. and went Immediately to Lady
Lake in automobiles, but it was inn
possible to get any trace of the fee
ing negro. He made good his escape,

AYERS CONVICTED

The jury in the case of the State of
Florida VS.. William G. Ayers, charged
with the assassination of Nick Myers.
about a year ago. returned a sealed
verdict Friday night, which was read
in open court Saturday morning. 1t
read: I'VE, the jury, find the defend
ant guilty of murder in the first de-
gree, with a recommendation to the
mercy of the court"
The evidence upon which Ayers
was convicted was entirely circum-
stantial.
Nick Myers was shot from ambush
one morning as he was approaching
his home from nearby store.
When the body was discovered the
neighbors discovered where the shoot
ing occurred, and traced the tracks
to certain school house. The tracks
were lost there, but again picked up
and traced to Ayers place of abode.
There were other incidents connect
ed with the murder which fastened
the suspicion of many of the neigh
bors upon young Ayers.
The evidence must have been very
strong, for the jury was not long in
arriving at a conclusion.

trance was gained through one of the
windows, and the unfortunate gentle

his room that he removed his collar
in order to be more comfortable, and
sat down to peruse the magazine

must have died instantly and without
struggle.
Mr. Englee. came to Ocala from
New York, where he was employed III

editor, and the duties were so oner-
Gus, exacting and straining that his
nerves became shattered, and he had
nervous breakdown and came TO
Florida with the hope that by leading
less strenuous life and having the
benefit of q softer and less exactinS
climate that he would be restored 20
full health, and he received an i'm
mense benefit, and he and his friends
thought that in a little while the
bloom of health would return to him,
but the summons came Unexpectedly.
Mr.. Englee, while extremely mod
est and retiring in his disposition, was
one of the most pleasant and accom-
modating gentlemen it has ever been
our good pleasure to meet.

commodate a friends, and. always had
pleasant word and kindly greet

timely death.

done, but up to last accounts Mr.. Bra
dy had not been heard from. He is
with the New South Farm and Home

ed to describe it. Richard lie CALI

of heart foam says that properly
there is only verb for love, has been
cruelty arrested and made a face the
cod. loYeless courts for being too
prom;scous in the distribution of his
love, Notwithstanding which he
says that no printed language of
man can describe the feelings of
ones love. The violin, he says, knows
it, and even the sea down at Coney
Island knows it, The rose is it, and
the moon is it, Yet with all these
delicate expressions his wife cruelty
jolts him before a loveless court And
Richard lie Gallienne is left to COM
mune in his cell alone with the more
flmy thoughts of the roses, the moon
and the silvery sea. Love, he means,
is so unreal.
