A large railroad man, with we'll
developed muscle and an irate COM
plexion. took us by the ear yesterday
and leading US TO the A. G. L. bulletin
board, bade us observe that at last
one-tenth OF mills worth of chalk
had been squandered upon ii. The
train numbers and time of arrival and
departure had been considerable
freshened up.
That's very good, boys, so far as IL
goes. but why don't you fill in between
eradicate the hiatuses, SO to speak ?
Your calling teaches you the useless
ness Of long couplings. The expert
railroad man, who already knows is
doubtless glad as he passes the bulle-
tin board to have his knowledge con-
firmed that No. 80 or No. 40 Is on time.
But the inexperienced traveller does
not know whether Nos. 80 and 40 go
to Jacksonville, ST. Petersburg, Lees
burg or Homosassa, and he couldn't
find out from your bulletin to save his
soul Put on little more chalk. Ws
will gladly buy you box of crayons
IL you will use them.
Chalk has run clear out at the Sea-
board station. A phone message from
there this morning said the bulletin
board was in it's usual condition OF
murky obseurity.

CHAPTER XIII.
ON 1T WAS WRITTEN
By ANNA KATHARINE GREEN

ON 1T WAS WRITTEN
WEETWATER'S nights rest had
not benefited him He had
seemed natural enough all
through the lengthy conference,
but a half hour later any one who
knew him well would have seen at a
first glance that his spirits were no
longer at par.
When at 2 O'Clock he entered the
clubhouse grounds 1t was without
buoyancy or any Of the natural ami
nation with which he usually went
about his work. He wandered down
on the golf links Taking out his
watch, he satisfied himself that he
had time for an experiment and i'm
mediately started for Cuthbert road
An hour later he came wandering back
on different line. He looked soured,
disappointed. When near the building
again he cast his eye over its rear
and gazed long and earnestly at the
window which had been pointed out
to him as the one from which a pos
sible light had shone forth that night.
There were no trees on this side Of
the house-only vines. But the vines
were bare Of leaves and offered no
obstruction to his view IF there had
been a light in that window any one
leaving this house by the rear would
have seen 1t unless he had been drunk
or a fool" muttered Sweetwater, in
cOntemptuous comment to himself.
Arthur Cumberiand's story is one lie.
I'll take the district attorneys sug-
gestion and return to New York to-
night. My works done here"
Yet he hung about the links for a
long time and finally ended by enter
ing the house and taking up his stand
beneath the long narrow window of
the closet overlooking the golf links.
With chin resting on his arms, he
stared out over the sill and sought
from the space before him and from
the intricacies Of his own mind the
hint he lacked to make this present
solution Of the case satisfactory to
all his instincts
What was that he saw In the vines
not on the snow Of the ground, but
halfway up in the tangle Of small
branches cinging close to the stone OF
the lower story, just beneath this win
dow?
He surely could see-something that
glistened, something that could only
have got there by falling from this
window. Could he reach it? No; he
would have to climb up from below
to do that. Well, that was easy
enough.
With the thought, he at once rushed
from the room. In another minute ht
was beneath that window; had climb
ed, pulled, pushed his way up; had
found the little pocket of netted vine.

his fingers and worked a small objec

AMERICAN ANTIQUITIES

All Florida students of history
should read the historical sketches
now being written for the Times
Union by that unsurpassed journalist
OF the old school. Benjamin Harrison.
At present he is giving some chap
ters In the history of Mexico before
the conquest. They are just inter
esting as the history of Europe during
the same period and should be of as
much Importance to the American
student. Mr.. Harrison is every bit as
good writer as the historial Prescott,
and Ii he had been born in Massa-
chusetts. would have had as great a
reputation. However, we don't think
the old veteran would change his
birthplace If he could.

We have been reading Claude

The primers of forty years ago in
culcated on our youthful minds the
dangers OF going on picnics on Sun
day. IL there is any truth in the press
dispatches, the primers of today should
add a chapter on the dangers of Sun
day school picnics. Several deadly
disasters to excursions of that variety
are reported every spring and this
year has been more prolific of acci-
dents than usual. There is nothing
sinful In Sunday school picnics, but
the people who go on them seem less
able to take care of themselves than
the wicked.

HOLDING 'EM UP

The law-defying L. & n. can find
more ways TO hold up the long suf-

reduce the rate on this division to
three cents a mile, they still charge
four cents on Interstate business. That
is, people from Mobile. for instance.
are still charged four cents to points
over here. The wise ones, of course,
buy ticket to Pensacola, and then
buy another local ticket unfortunately
not all the travelling public are wise
to L. & N methods.-DeFuniak Breeze

JUSTICE DELAYED

DIR. Lincoln Hully, against whom
Miss Helen Hunt of st. Augustine Sc
cured a verdict of $4,000 in the spring
for alleged slander, has appealed his
case. to the supreme court of Florida.
IT will probably be late in the year
before the case is finally settled by
the courts. Everybody who knows
the young lady feels sure that she
was treated with great Injustice. and,
in Ocala at least. there are many who
nope the supreme tribunal will con-
firm the decision of the court below.
