SPIES SWARM ON
COAST OEFEMSES
Says an Alarming Report
Which Was Submitted to
Congress Thursday.

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 20-Astound-
ing revelations OF the extent OF the
military spy system as practiced
against the United States Government
are made In report presented to Con-
gress Thursday by the House Com
mittee on Judiciary. More than a
score of instances in which spies are
known to have been engaged in col
lecting the military secrets of the
United States are cited.

been spread about as freely as hand
bills. Officers of foreign nations, dis
guised as walters in restaurants, have
been caught in the act of delving into
the secrets of our national defenses.

ing the scheme of defenses for Corregi-
dor Island. in the Philippines, was
picked up in the streets of Calcutta.
Spies have swarmcd in Pacific Coast
ports. and without molestation, for
there was no law governing the case.
have mapped and charted every bay
and inlet. fort and fertilization along
tho Pacific Coast.
Members OF the House read the re-
port with amazement. Inasmuch as the
facts In the report were cleaned from
secret records of the Government and
confidential police reports OF the var
ious big cities. no names were men,
toned, nor were the nationalities Of
the spies who have been detected. dis
closed.
The report came in connection with
4 favorable RECOMMENDATION for the
passage # the Robson bill providing
for the arrest and imprisonment of all
persons caught in the act of Spying.
The bill was Introduced at the last
session Of Congress by Captain r. p.
Hobson. It carries a penalty OF fine
Of not more than $1,000 or imprison-
ment for not more than one year or
both for any unauthorized person who

Kill Man Who Cuts Down Tree.

The following clipping was handed
in by Henderson lady who regrets
to see so many nice shade trees be-
ing cut down in this place:
"The president OF a large civic as
sociation, in public address recent
ly. told his audience that if anyone
caught a man in the act OF destroy
ing tree in a city to kill the man
and allow the tree to live. The lee
turer declared that it would be an
easy matter to get another man
worth more than the man who would
destroy d tree that grows on a city
street, but that it would take years
to get another tree.
"Killing would be too severe pun
ishment for town officials who ruth
lessly destroy shade trees to make
room for what they call progress,
but some kind Of punishment should
be dealt out to them. In a number
OF North Carolina cities magnificent
shade trees which have for years
been crowning ornament to the
towns have been placed ct the mercy
OF the WOodman's axe. The officials
of those cities are feeling the swelling
tide of industrial development, which
all of the cities of the State are un-
dergoing just now, and they think
that the first method OF showing
this progress is to destroy the shade
trees on the streets. What the citi-
zens of other towns would give thou
sands of dollars to have the Off cials
of these towns value not at all.

Ooes Back to Penitentiary.

Charles Tinsley, colored, son OF Al
bert Tinsley of this county, has ap-
piled voluntarily to the State peni-
tentiary authorities to be recommit-
ted to that prison to complete a SEN
tence OF one year for larceny and re-
ceiving. He began the sentence in Oc-
tober, 1903, and escaped in Decem-
Der OF thai year while serving as a
"trusty." Since then he went to
Virginia, first to Richmond and then
to Danville, where he became involv-
ed in a highway robbery and was
sent to the Virginia penitentiary for
six years. He was pardoned after
five years service and spent two
years in Atlantic City, where he ac-
cumulated a bank account OF 500,
it is said. He says the dread OF be-
ing an escaped convict has impelled
him to go back and finish his North
Carolina sentence.

a good newspaper. When the ad-

every way more satisfactory and

Played Running a a Train.

Rev. l.. T. Trott, of Durham, was
at Louisburg last week and brought
back the following story from that
place which he tells for the truth:
From Louisburg to Franklintou,
the Seaboard runs little spur track
of ten or more miles. Some days ago
two fellows got drunk in Louisburg,
fired up the engine and started 1t off
to Franklinton. One of them tied
the whistle down and let it blow all
the way, while the other filled the
tender with cord wood. While the
first one fired the engine the second
was collecting fares from the cord
wood and when he found dead beat
who wouldn't pay, he pitched a stick
of wood out. Mr.. Trott doesn't
know what became of his Louisburg
heroes, but heard that they ran the
engine into port without accident.

Wife That Is a Fortune

The sweetest wives are those who
possess the magic secret of being
contented under any circumstances.
Rich or poor. high or low, it makes
no difference; the bright little foun-
tain OF Joy bubbles up just as musi-
cally in their hearts. Do they live
in log cabin? The fire on its hum
BILE hearth becomes brighter than
the gilded chandelier in an Aladdin

A NEW ENTERPRISE FOR ocALA

After casting about over the state
for a suitable location for opening up
a commercial or business college, Mr.
H. H. Arnston, of Houston, Texas,
has decided that Ocala is possibly the
best and most centrally located for
such an enterprise, and Monday is
starting a school of this kind here.
The school will be a business COL
lege in every sense of the word and
will be fully equipped for carrying on
the work in the most modern lines.
The institution is to be known as
the Florida College of Commerce,
and will occupy the upper floor of the
Commercial Bank building.
Mr.. Arnston is now at work or
ganizing classes, and announces that
the college will open for regular reci-
tations the first Monday in January.
There will be three departments,
the commercial, stenographic, and
English, although a student may COM
bine these courses if he wishes.
Mr.. Arnston will personally conduct
the classes in shorthand, typewrit-
ing, and English, and an able assist
ant will be in charge of the CONNER
cial department, which will embrace
bookkeeping, arithmetic, penmanship,
and commercial law. There will be
both the day and evening sessions, so
that people who are employed during
the day will have an equal opportun-
ity of securing thorough business
training
Mr.. Arnston has had wide exper-
fence in business life and in teach
ing. He is a university graduate, and
has taught in high school and college.
He received his business training in
high school and college. He received
his business training in the Gregg
school, Chicago, and has been con-
nected with various firms in the north
and west. For several years he has
been engaged in commercial teach
ing, and has successfully conducted
mis- own school. In Houston, which
he recently left to come to Florida, he
was principal of the stenographic de-
partment of the Massey Business
College.
Many of our young people have in
the past been compelled to go to
other cities in order to complete their
business education along practical
lines, and the Florida College of Com
merce will no doubt receive large
patronage from the beginning.
