JAMES j. WARD MAKES SEVERAL
FLIGHTS AT THE FAIR
GROUNDS SUNDAY

Sunday afternoon James ]. Ward,
one of the well known aviators was
in Ocala and at the fair grounds gave
several exhibition fights in his areo-
plane, the Shooting Star" His ma
chine is a Curtiss biplane and Mr..
Ward flew around as gracefully and
apparently with as much ease as some
big bird of the air.
There was big crowd at the fair
grounds to witness the flights and
there was likewise a big crowd on the
finish of the flights, which was an ex-
ceedingly pretty sight as the big ma
chine sped swiftly over the ground on
wheels before the aviator gave the
signal to the men to let loose the ma
chine after which it scared gracefully
into the air. Mr.. Ward few for sever
al miles south west of the city in one
of his flights. The first flight took
place shortly after three-thirty
O'Clock. On one of the flights some
thing went wrong with the areoplane
and the aviator had to descend after
he had gone only a little distance but
the trouble was soon located and Mr.
Ward shortly after was up in the ali
again.
All in all the flights were very
pretty ones and no one was disap
pointnd

FAMILY REUNION AT. TALLAHAs-
SEE

One of the most delightful family
reunions was held at the residence of
r. B. German, now one of the oldest
of Tallahassee's male citizens. A din
ner, given in honor of Edwin Myers
Blake of Washington, D. c., brother
Of Mrs. German, brought together all
the immediate members of his family
now living. These were his mother,
Mrs. Mary A. Blake, widow of DR.. E..
l.. T. Blake, one of the most distin-
guished Methodist preachers of his
time; her son, Edwin, and her daugh-
tiers, Miss Jessie P. Blake. Mrs. R. B.
German and Mrs. Fred B. Biddulph of
Jacksonville. Present also were Mr..
German, Mary and Frederick German,
Fred Biddulph, ST., and his son, Fred.
Tallahassee is the birthplace of Mr.
Blake, and he has thoroughly enjoyed
his visit here, the first for many years.
His mother, Mrs. Blake, is now in her
eighty-third year, and enjoys the dis
tinction of being the oldest native
born Tallahasseean now living.
While in the city Mrs. Biddulph
was guest of honor at delightful
gathering of friends invited to meet
her at the hospitable residence of
Mrs Henry T. Felkel. The tea table
was laden with all sorts of Christmas
dainties, and a charming social hour
spent.
Her son, Fred Biddulph, Jr., was
similarly honored by his friends, Mrs.
Temple, who asked a number of his
friends to meet him at her home on
Christmas night.-Tallahassee Notes

quick people cannot use him.
A real man honors woman, any
woman. He cannot hurt a woman,
physically or morally. He sticks TO
his wife. He can be loyal, even if ii
becomes impossible to love.
A real man minds his own bust

A real man always has an excuse
for others, never for himself. He is
patient and charitable to them, to
himself he is strict.
A real man is glad to live, and not
afraid to die.
A real man never hunts danger, and
never lodges it when he ought to
meet it.
A real mans love is like a dogs
and that's saying a great deal.
A real man is-well, he is a a real

freshing thing to be found on all the
green earth, unless it be a real wo-

EGYPTIAN COTTON CROP

The London Financial Times pub
fishes the following from G.. L. Nor.
terra, dated Alexandria, November "a:
'We consider the crop now prac-
tically over, the ideal temperature
having ripened the bolls which re-
NAMED on the plants. Only few vii
lagos have cotton still growing, but all
estimates are in the neighborhood of
G, 500,000, minimum. Receipts have so
far reached 100000 cantars, which,
as the present crop is a fortnight late,
compare favorably with those of No
vember z, 1910. Notwithstanding the
small receipts, we have a stock of L.
265, 1000 cantars, which, added to the
100000 which will arrive from the
interior, will leave about 100000 to
be sold. We hear from private and
ether sources that spinners have re-
placed Egyptian cotton by American,
with good results, which will no doubt
prevent them coming on to Egyptian
again this year at all events, owing to
the low quality of the present crop
and the large premium over Ameri-
can. We are, therefore, afraid that
we shall have large stock remaining
at the end of the season which will be
hard to sell. unless the difference be-
tween American and Egyptian be re-
duced to So

CLUTCH" CONE

Under date OF November Goth, there
appeared in the New York papers a
statement made by Secretary of the
Navy Meyer that during the past two
years the navy, twenty per cent.
large than it was the previous two
years, has been maintained at saw
ing of 100000. This saving was made
by the bureau of steam engineering,
created just before the termination
of the cruise around the world, which
the navy made during the latter part
of Roosevelt's last administration.
At the head of the bureau of steam
engineering is Rear Admiral Hutchin-
son /. Cone, who is a Florida man,
born and raised in Columbia county.
Hutch" is the only head that the
bureau of steam engineering has ever
had and to him, therefore, is due the
credit for this remarkable statement
made by the secretary of the navy
an increase of twenty per cent. of the
naval strength, maintained at a saw
ing of 100000 during a period of two
years!
When the feet started around the
world Hutch was a lieutenant.
When it got to San Francisco so re-
markable was the record made by
this Florida boy in bringing the torpe-
do flotilla over that distance, that a
new office was created for him, and
he was put in charge of the motive
power of the entire fleet, with head
quarters on the flag ship.
The showing made under his direc-
ton in the saving of coal in the in
creased daily mileage from San Fran
cisco to Gibraltar was so startling
that Roosevelt, who watched every
movement of this fleet, created the bu-
reau of steam engineering, advanced
Hutch" Cone from lieutenant COM
mander, the grade he earned at San
Francisco, to rear admiral and put
him in charge of it.
The report of the secretary of the
navy shows how Hutch" made good.
He is a credit to Florida. I feel hon
ored in being able to call him friend.

IN SUFFRAGEVILLE

The hour was late; the light was
low, the weary husband walked the
floor, and listened, pacing to and fro,
to hear his wife's step at the door.
In vain that husband strained his
ears; then he surrendered to the
blues, and from his eyes the briny
tears rolled down his whiskers to his
shoes. "All day l swept and washed
and baked" he murmured in resentful
tones 'darned stockings till my in
nards ached and scrubbed, upon my
marrowbones. I rocked the children
all TO sleep; it seems to me low
down dodge that l must here my Wig
il keep while James cavorting at the
lodge. If wives but knew how much
their hubs rebel at all their griefs
and woes, they'd not so often seek
the clubs and caucuses and things
like those If Jane would spend an
evening here, say once a week, grief
would depart; this home would seem
a place of cheer, the homework would
not break my heart. But no, when
evening comes she takes her hat and
overcoat and cane, and leaves me to
a world of aches and tears and loneli-
ness and pain. Alas, the tyranny of
wives! 1t puts our home life on the
blink; it desolates their husbands
lives, and drives those heartsick
slaves to drink"

UNIVERSAL PEACE

Recently an important subject was
presented to the Presbyterian congre-
cation by the pastor, the subject of
Universal Peace. The modern peace
movement is making great strides,
the sentiment for disarmament and
arbitration is rapadly growing in all
civilized countries. This subject is
brought to the attention of the pub
lie at this time for the purpose of
arousing an interest, If possible, in
the arbitration treaties now before
the senate of the United States for
ratification. These treaties are very
strongly urged by President Taft and
many of our leading statesmen, as
we'll as by the peace society and the
federal council of the churches of
America.
1t is earnestly hoped that the va
rious churches and the public in gen.
eral will lend aid to this advance by
sending petitions or resolutions and
private letters to our senators urging
the ratification of these treaties
which widen the scope of arbitration
between our government and the gov
ernments of Great Britain and France.

You may never get to De president

in war or fad in literature, but you
can be greater than any of these

And the beauty of it is that, in re-

have the whole matter in your own
