Why You Sigh.

When anyone signs u~nconsciously
1t means they have been taking short
breaths and not drawing SUFFICIENT oxy-
gen into the lungs. Finally. the lungs
must have more oxygen, they are hun
CRY for it, and so the lungs exert their
right and actually force you to take In
a great breath of air. This gives
them the needed oxygen, and they
a go on with their work for a
while longer, when they will force
another Sigh" which is in reality
helping themselves to more oxygen in
spite Of yourself.

TAMPA NORTHERN TAKEN OVER
BY THE SEABoARD

The Tampa Northern is now con-
trolled by interests that are practical
Nv the same as those in control OF
the Seaboard.
This has been guessed for some
months.
The Times is able to announce to-
day, on absolutely authentic author
ity, that the stock control of the Tam
pa Northern has passed from the
hands of NJ F. Amorous of Atlanta,
and those who were interested with
him in the construction of the road,
and is now in the hands of men who
are also large stockholders in the
Seaboard.
New Officers of Road
The transfer was made some time
ago and meeting of the stockhold-
ers was held in Boston recently,
when the following were named as Of
ficers of the Tampa Northern:
President-Charles r. Capps, now
vice president of the Seaboard.
Secretary and Treasurer-R. L..
Mutt.
Assistant Secretary-D. C. Porte
ous..
Comptroller-T. w. Robey.
General Counsel-Peter o. knight.
M. F. Amorous of Atlanta, who had
been president of the road, and w. P.
Stovall, who had been vice president,
resigned, and the new men are now
in charge of the road.
Current Gossip is Confirmed
For several months it has been cur
rent gossip that the Seaboard was in
control of the Tampa Northern; with
all that means in the way of control
of the rich deep water terminals pos
sessed by that road at this point.
Though generally believed to be true,
the control has been denied by Off
GERS of both roads, the time not being
ripe for publicity, it was thought.
With the election of officers that
time has passed and the statement
can now be made that Seaboard in
terests control the Tampa Northern.
What this means to Tampa can only
be conjectured as yet.
The Times informant state that it
was his understanding that the Tam
pa Northern would be run as an in
dependent organization. However, of
ficered as it is, by men who are like
wise officers and employees of the
Seaboard, it is without a doubt that
the Tampa Northern will cease to be
competing and will become a CO.
operating road with the Seaboard.
Means Northwestern Outlet
That it will in time-and that prob
ably in the near future-too, be ex-
tended so as to give the Seaboard the
outlet to the northwest which will
mean so much to Tampa and to the
west coast of Florida is also the be-
lief of the Times informant
81 do not know it to be true" said
he, 'but l have no doubt that the
Tampa Northern will be extended to
connect with some of the Seaboard's
lines to the north of Brooksville, so
as to give the Seaboard northwest
ern outlet Tampa Times.
