"You say" asked Maitland. as they
surveyed the canon, that she went
down the stream?"
"She said she was goin' down. 1
showed her how to cut across the
mountains an avoid the big bend. I've
got no reason to suspicion that she
didn't go Were she said"
Nevertheless, said Maitland, sit
ds barely possible that she may have
changed her mind and gone up the
canon"
"Yep, the female mind does often
Ichange unexpected like" returned the
other, 'but w'ether she went up or
down, the only place for us to look, I
take It, is down, for If she's alive, IL
she got out of the canon and is above
Jus, nacherly she'd follow it down yere
am we'd a seed her by this time. II
she didn't git out OF the canon, why,
all that's left Of her is bound to be
down stream"
Maitland nodded. He understood.
"We'd better go down, then" con-
tinued Kirkby, whose reasoning was
'fawless except that he made no al
lowance for the human-divine interpo-
Isition that had been Enid Maitland's
salvation, "an' If we don't find no
trace Of her down stream, we kin
come back here an go up"
It was a hard, desperate journey
the two men took. One of them fol-
lowed the stream at its level, the
other tramped along in the mountains
high above the high water marh 0e
the day before. If they had needed
any evidence Of the power Of that
cloudburst and storm, they found it in
the canon. In some places where it
was narrow and rocky the pass had
been fairly secured; at other places
the whole aspect Of it was changed,
the place was welter of uprooted
trees, logs jammed together in fan
tastic shapes; it was as if some wan
ton bosom Of destruction had swept
the narrow rift.

seen nothing. They camped that night
far down the canon and in the morn
Ding, with hearts growing heavier ev-

About noon of the second day they
came to an immense log jam where
the stream now broadened and made
"a sudden turn before it plunged over
"a fall Of perhaps two hundred feet
into the lake. 1t was the end Of their
quest If they did not find her there,
they would never do SO. With still
hearts and bated breath they climbed
out over the log jam and scrutinized
IT. A brownish gray patch concealed
beneath the great pines caught their
eyes. They made their way to it.
'It's bar, big Grizzly" exclaim-
ed Kirkby.
The huge brute was battered out Of
all semblance of life, but that it was

Further on the two men caught sight
suddenly Of a dash Of blue. Kirkby
stepped over to 1t, lifted 1t in his hand
and silently extended 1t to Maitland.
It was a sweater, a woman's sweater.
They recognized 1t at once. The old

son, Of Richmond, va. the compiler
Of the Florida edition Of Makers Of

written as follows concerning Flori-
ia and bis impressions Of the state
and its people
THE story needs no application.
i travelled through Florida for a good
many months. and / found delight
full and courteous people on every
hand; people who are making and
building beautiful homes, who are
causing their respective commune

Florida does possess some peculiar
advantages that cannot be duplicated
anywhere else in the United States,
and | believe in few places over the
world. haven't been all over the
world, but have travelled over most
of it, and i have been a close observer
Of the conditions Of men andithings,

pleasure not only that but make
as much money il Florida as any
State or any country have ever

are doing these things. and whose
children will do them in the future.

in the State and endeayor to do what
they can to advance its interests III
an educational and material way As
we read and study about the State
of Florida, its advantages and what
the most active and energetic peo-
pie are doing there, we are stimulat-
ed and encouraged and we are able
to accomplish greater results in a.
business way.
Florida has been very fortunate
IN being enriched by men and wom-
en- Of culture from other States. Some
OF them only live there a few months
Of the year; others make their per-
manent homes there. Before trav-
eled in Florida ! used to think that
81 Of the live business men Of the
State came from other sections Of
the country, but It wasn't long be-
fore I had my eyes opened, and /
realized that among the natives Of
Florida there was just as good tim
Der as has ever been cut out Of the

doing things, and who were impor-
tant factors IN alvanIing the inter-

authorities and co-operates with

The City Council seems to be nm
able to come to decision in the
matter of the granting Of fran
chise to the gas company which pros
poses to put a $4,000 plant in Lake
land. The care and caution exer-
cised by the council are most COM
mendable, and evidence . proper con-
ception Of tie Importance Of safe
guarding the peoples interests. It
seems to us, however, that this is 4
matter in which all the citizens are
deeply interested, and an expression
from as many as possible would be
helpful in assisting the council to
satisfactory disposition Of the
problem. The Telegram would sug-
gest that 4 mass meeting Of ali per-
sons interested be held at an early
date, and full and free discussion
Of the matter be had We trust no
mistake will be made in dealing with
this important proposition. We are
anxious that it be decided for the
best. We are sure the council de-
sires to conform to the wishes Of
the people. No harm can come from
frank and free expression Of these
wishes. Let us hear from the people.

statement that the State House stands
In need OF renovation and enlarge
ment. nor do We doubt that it could
be vastly improved by the expenditure
OF million or more on 1t, but in
view OF the financial condition Of the
State and the present rate OF taxation
we are most decidedly opposed to the
undertaking. Only few years ago
more than two hundred thousand dol
lars were expended on the State
House. and this ought to suffice for
the present. Furthermore. we do not
approve Of the manner in which this
contract for plans has been fastened
on the State by the committee on
state House and grounds. inasmuch
as II appears to us that the said com
mittee stretched its authority in the
premises to considerable extent. In
an undertaking of this magnitude II
seems to us that II would have been

TO architects generally to submit pre-
liminary sketches and estimates of
the proposed improvements on the
state House and then select the best
plans submitted. The whole thing
looks like snap Judgment at heavy
cost to the State--in any event, not
less than $13.550. whether the addi-
tions are built or not. if the contract
with Messrs. Todd & Benson is
legal and binding obligation Of the
State.
A million dollars expended on the
pubic highways would benefit the
state more than the same amount
spent on the State House, and would,
also. be more sensible.
