member Of the firm owning the Fort
Mccoy drugstore, in which fire broke
out Sunday night, the fire not subsid-
ing till it had burned the drugstore
and several other stores. The trunk
was found to be well filled with enough
new goods to stock small drugstore.
Mr. Brigance arrested DR. Seymour
at Webster and brought him to 4Ocala,
where his partner, c. P. Akin, was al
ready in Jail.
Mr. Brigance has shown great skill
IN working up this case. He says he

two men, who viii be given a hearing

grave crime, Of setting fire to their
property in order to collect the insur-
anee, in itself great offense, and i'm
mensely added to by the fact that the

property of other people and put the
entire town in danger. If their guilt
is proven. they will spend long terms
in the penitentiary

Of saloons will be made after five
years from the time the petition was
found sufficient two years ago. There
is no question but if saloon should
seek to obtain a permit under the
petition last circulated that the law
limiting the number of saloons to one
for every thousand inhabitants would
apply. The friends of the saloon as
we'll as the temperance people are on
hand watching the count to see that
nothing is omitted which the law re-
quires to be done. The board of
supervisors have had sufficient ex-
perience in making a canvass of this
character to insure their being able
to comply with the letter and spirit
of the law.

On Thursday night some miscreant
broke into the room occupied by Mrs.
McCord, an elderly lady, sleeping in
one of the rooms over the cafe on
West Broadway, in what is known as
the old court house building. She
was awakened about one or two
o'clock by the presence of a stranger
in her room and her screams evidently
caused the fellow to suddenly make
his escape. The supposition is that
his purpose was robbery, not of the
woman, but of gentleman, whose
room was on the same floor and who
was known to have considerable
amount of money on his person earlier
in the evening. 1t was fortunate that
nothing more serious occurred than
to frighten the lady in whose room
the intruder was found.
