a thorough scrub bing, fumigating and

FATHER. DEAR FATHER.
COME HOME WITH ME NOW

Father, dear father, come home with
The clock on the dashboard strikes
Don't fuss with the car any longer.
papah,
You can't get the old tub to run;
The cylinders are cracked and the
timer won't work.
And mothers been waiting since tea,
SO tether the car to a post, father,
dear.
Come home, dear father. with me.
Father. dear father. come home with
me now,
The speed meter clocks striking two.
The night has grown colder, the rear
tires fiat,
And mamma may fret about you.
The cam-shaft is twisted, the pumps
out OF gear:
Perhaps before morning shall dawn
Ma may grow real angry and want a
divorce
Come quickly. or she may be gone;
Come home, come home, etc.
Father, dear father. come home with
me now,
The clocks striking three-it's struck
out;
Don't fool any more with magnetic and
coil:
The wires have grounded, no doubt.
The child's plea was answered-the
answer was short.
Which the night winds repeat as they
roam:
The gas tank eXploded-some noise
and some smoke.
And father and daughter blew home.

THE JACKSONVILLE STRIKE

Jacksonville was in state of I'M
easiness all day Sunday, on account of
the many acts of violence on the part
Of strike sympathizers. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that the entire strength
Of the police force is on constant duty
and perhaps the entire strength of the
Florida militia is on duty there, vio-
lence continues and the conditions
there have assumed a more serious
aspect.
On Monroe street mob of fully 500
men attacked street car, battering
in all of the windows. Crews were
taken from other cars and beaten
Fully twenty arrests were made dur
ing the day, but the police were una
forming in various sections of the
city.
In Riverside, at 4 o'clock, a gang OF
about eighty sympathizers attacked a
car, throwing missiles and striking
two women who were in the car. These
missiles fell in and around an auto
mobile filled with women and children
Six of these men were caught by
mounted police, but no sooner had the
patrol wagon left the scene than the
remainder of the gang organized again
and attacked cars in the next block
tearing out windows and badly defac-
ing the cars.
The board of trade committee has
secured an agreement from the com
pany to accede TO all demands Of the
strikers except recognition OF the
union, and this is what is causing al
the trouble.

sCHNEIDER's LAST SPIEL

In another column. Comrade Schnei-
der emts his last socialist wall Of the
campaign.
AS aforesaid the Star finds much Of
Comrade Schneiders argument unan-
swerable 1t doesn't seem TO need any
answer with sensible and well inform
ed people We are perfectly sure that
Comrade Schneider doesn't believe 1t
himself, and about the only sort OF
man who does believe il is in the nix
Daniel Webster was in when he jour
neyed to Baltimore with John c. CAL
houn many years ago.
Webster and Calhoun started in their
own conveyance from Washington TO
Baltimore one autumn afternoon.
Darkness overlook them, both the road
and the weather were bad and they
put up al a small tavern. 1t was al
ready crowded and the two statesmen
had to be put in one room with one
bed. This did not worry them much,
for tho political opponents they were
personal friends.
Being wet and chilled when they ar
rived at the tavern, they took several
drinks to counteract the weather
| Naturally, when they reached their
room they were slightly confused
| They undressed, blew out the candle
and got into bed, and then Calhoun
who was a fresh air crank, remember
ed that the window was shut. Web
ster, being very accommodating and
more robust than his friend, arose tc
remedy the defect.
| This was before the day of matches
and it was practically impossible fol
| the Massachusetts statesmen to strike
light. Being fuddled and in q
| strange place, he lost his hearings. He
lurched across the room and found g
glass shutter, which he thought was &
window, but it was the door Of a cup
board. He tried to raise it, but Of
course it wouldn't raise.
| 81 can't open it John" he said.
| Break it, Daniel" said Calhoun.
| So Webster SrUke it. And Calhoun
when he heard the smash Of the glass
said: Put your head out, Daniel, ant
see what the night is like"
| The accommodating Webster stucl
his head, as he thought, out doors, blu
really into the cupboard. After sizins
up the situation as correctly as posi-
ble he pulled himself back into tn,
room and began hunting for the bed.
whats it like, Daniel?" sail Cal
houn.
Dark as hell and smells lik,
cheese" said Webster.
That is the idea of the average so
cialist regarding society. With hi
head inside the cupboard, and think
ing, or making believe to think, it il
all out doors, he says it is as dark a
HELL and smells like cheese.

have your automobile painted. The
work we turn out looks just as good as
new and the enamel is as permanent

SPLITTING THE STATE

By far the most important and far
reaching subject treated in the speech
delivered by Secretary Leland ]. Hen
derson of the Pensacola Commercial
Association, at the organization OF the
West Florida Chamber of Commerce in
Pensacola Friday. was tue formation
OF an Independent state to be known
as West Florida.
The secretary pointed out that West
Florida would never benefit materially
by the actions of the peninsular sec
ton OF the state; that that section of
the state was an entirely separate
and distinct section; that West Flor
ida, IL formed, would have a greater
population than four states of the
Union and would have a greater area
than eight states
