PENNSYLVANIA
RAILROAD
n
To ksy West and Cuba.

The through car service
between New York and Key
West now in operation is a
distinct advantage to travel
between this section and
Cuba.
1t is a direct rail line to
the tip end Of Florida with
a ferry thence to Havana.
The dauntless courage and
the r~esistless energy Of Mr..
Flagler made the oversee
railroad to Key West q fact
and so placed at the dispo-
sition OF the travelling public
a rail line to within 80 miles
of the Cuban capital. 1t
brings Havana almost as
close to New York as New
Orleans. It eliminates the
necessity Of a trip by sea and
saves almost two days in the
time Of transit.

APPEAL FOR THE ORPHANS

At Arcadia, Fla, is located a home
for orphan children. The buildings
are comfortable, and the management
all that can be desired. At present
there are in the home seventy-three
boys and girls receiving care and
Christian training. Good teachers are
employed to look after their education
AS the children become old enough
they are taught besides books things
pertaining to practical, everyday life
The boys are trained in manual labor
and farming; the girls receive the in
struction in domestic matters and the
care of home. This institution while
under the management of the Baptist
denomination, cares for all children OF
whatever creed or condition that are
sent there. The age for admission is
from three to fourteen years. Many
of those sent are under eight years old
unable to do anything toward sell
help.
The home has no endowment and nc
means of support save the contribu-
tions of the good men and women OF
the state. A plan was suggested by
the trustees, viz: that certain towns
churches, associations and individuals

GEO. w. BROWN

The death angel must have appeared
"a bright spirit indeed to George
Brown, the little popcorn man when.
Just at sunset last evening 1t came to
lead his waiting soul from the crippled
body to the land of everlasting rest.
Brown has been among US quite a
few years. a hopeless cripple, but al
ways at work as long as he was able
to move, and winning many friends by
the brave and cheerful spirit in which
he bore his misfortune.
Mr.. Brown was a native OF Massa-
chusetts. His life history is a sad one.
AS a young man, he earned his living
as a contortionist, and was a star per-
former in more than one circus. When
sickness came to him later in life, IL
took the strength from his supple
limbs and left them hopeless1y twisted
and almost helpless.
Years ago, Brown had a pretty wife
and two lovely children. The children
were among the victims of the awful
General Slocum disaster in the East
river by New York, nine years ago
and the mother, broken hearted, died
soon after in a hospital.
| Mr.. Brown came to Ocala some three
or four years ago. He was feeble and
almost helpless. but supported himself
selling popcorn and doing anything
else he could. He had bright mind
was a good accountant, and but fol
his misfortune his services would have
demanded high wages.
| About two years ago, he Joined the
Baptist church, under the ministry OF
Rev. II. e. Gabby, and from that time
on was one of the most faithful mem.
bers.
A few months ago, he became too
feeble to take care of himself AM
longer. His friends placed him in tn,
hospital and saw that he wanted 70
nothing. and day by day he PEACEFUL!
watched the current of his life ebb int
leternity's sea.
The funeral services will take plac
lat o'clock this afternoon, at tn
chapel of McIver & MacKay, who ar
in charge of the arrangements. Inter
ment will be in Evergreen cemetery

and said he had decided to accept his
offer. Mr.. Robinson, who greatly APP
preciates a fine dog, passed over the
money, and tied the dog in his office,
intending to bring him to Ocala that
night. 1t happens that mad dog
scare Is just now at the front in Tam
pa. a number of rabid animals having
been killed in the last two weeks. Mr..
Robinson was surprised and dismayed
that evening to be told that the
canine he had just purchased had been
bitten by one of the dogs suspected of
rabies, and that the man who sold the
dog to him knew it. Mr.. Robinson at
once turned the dog loose. Seems to
the Star that Tampa would suspend
her dog catcher, and ii is pity there
IA no way to prosecute him for delib-
erate1y taking a chance for few dol
lars to ship a case Of rabies into a
neighboring city.

wife of a prominent planter at Pine
hurst, Ga. Monday afternoon. and who
later was taken from officers at Cor
