Mr.. GUY TOPH TO MOVE TO GIN.
CINNATI

Mr. Guy Toph and family expect to
leave Ocala the first of March for Gin
cinnati, Ohio, which city they will
make their future home. Since mov-
ing to Ocala from Tampa they have
made a great many friends, both So
cially and in business way, and
their moving away from Ocala will
be the cause of much regret.
The Montezuma Hotel, of which
Mr. Toph was part owner, and which
he has run for some time, has been
very successful under his manage
ment The hotel will be turned over
to it's new owner, Mr.. r. S. Hall, on
February first, and the work of remod-
cling and adding to the building will
be begun at once. Mr. Toph will con-
tinue to run the hotel for Mr.. Hall un-
til March the first. We are certainly
sorry to lose Mr.. Toph, who has been
such an excellent citizen, but wish
him every success in Cincinnati,
where he will hereafter reside.
Mrs. A. R. Toph will leave soon for
Lexington, KY, to make her home
with her sister.

WILL NOT LEAVE OCALA

The friends of Mr.. Marcus Frank
will be glad to know that he has re-
considered his determination to leave
Ocala. He discovered at the last mo-
ment that he had done a much finer
business than he thought he had
done; that he had a larger stock of
goods on his Shelves that he was
better off in every way, besides hav-
ing a host of genuine friends who de-
one thousand dollars, according to the
terms of agreement, and will continue
to do business at his old stand.
The fact that he had sold his house
hold goods, had given up his residence
and had agreed to forfeit the amount
named are evidence of the sincerity
of his intentions.
He feels that Ocala will continue in
the lead as the principal inland city
between Jacksonville and Tampa, and
that he is now in a position to do a
larger and more lucrative business
than ever He will leave for New
York in a few days to replenish his
stock of goods, and expects to buy
more costly ones, and will carry an
immensely heavier stock 1t is his
ambition to become the leading mer-
chant of Ocala, and whether or not
his ambition is gratified he will con-
duct his business with that idea al
ways in view.
The newspapers are particularly
glad to know that Mr.. Frank is to re-
main with us, for he has been a per-
sistent, judicious and phenomenal ad-
vertiser, and will continue to pin his
faith in printers ink.

The special venire of fifty-two will
be present when the court convenes

The murder, of which the prisoner
is charged, is the most foul that was
ever committed in this county, but as
it is familiar to our readers it is not
necessary to again repeat it's details
Neither the state nor the defense
has yet exhausted it's challenges, and
some of the jurors named above may
be set aside this morning.
The prisoner is defended by Messrs.
R. B. Bullock and r. A Burford of
this city. Colonel Robert w. Da-
Wis of Tampa is assisting the state in

HoNoRs FOR MRS. r. c. COOLEY

Mrs. Roselle c. Cooley has been ap-
pointed by the president general of
the United Daughters of the Confeder-
acy as a member of the committee on
the revision of the constitution and
bylaws Of the organization. AS this
constitution will have a provision that
it can only be amended every five
years, the work is very important, and
the president general, Mrs. Alexander
B. White of Tennessee, has selected
five of the best parliamentarians of
the organization for the work.
Mrs. Cooley has for some years
been a recognized authority on parlia-
mentary procedure, and her vest pock-
ct manual, The Presiding Officer, now
in its eight thousand, is in use in
nearly every state by men and wo-
men. The mayor of Cadillac, Mich.
has copy always in his vest pocket
and says it is his most valuable pos
session.
The Confederate Veteran for Jan
uary has in the report of the record
ing secretary general, complimentary
notices of Mrs. Cooley and a report
of her amendment at the Richmond
convention, U. d. c., which was the
only amendment adopted at the con-
vention, the others being referred to
the committee of which Mrs. Cooley
is a misunderstanding Times Union.

Mr.. MALEVER BUYS OUT THE
GLOBE

AS soon as Mr. Malever saw that
he was thwarted in his efforts to buy
out Mr.. Marcus Frank, by the latter
gentleman forfeiting the one thou
sand dollars to call the trade off, he
Immediately got busy, as he had sur
rendered his lease where he had been
doing business ever since coming to
Ocala, and made a proposition to buy
the Globe from his old partner, Mr..
B. Goldman. The proposition was at
once accepted and Mr.. Goldman will
give immediate possession. Moving
from his former place of business to
his present elegant quarters tells the
story of Mr. Goldman's success, and
he gives up his present business be-
cause he owns the pawn shop next
door, which is money-coiner, and he
wants to give it his entire attention
Mr.. Malever has built up a fine bus
mess, and now that he will occupy
larger and more commodious quarters
located on the principal business
street of the city, it goes without say
ing that he will do much larger and
more lucrative business.
We are glad that none of these
splendid merchants are to leave Ocala
and this paper hopes that all of them
will continue to prosper, and we know
that they will do their full part in
pushing Ocala to the front.

PANAMA CANAL IN LIMELIGHT

Since the passage of the bill by the
Senate permitting American vessels
engaged in the coastwise trade to
pass through the Panama canal free,
a protest has been received from
Great Britain. That country claims
that under the Hay-Pauncefote treaty
equal treatment of the ships of all
nations is guaranteed. The whole
controversy will therefore hinge upon
the construction to be placed upon the
clause whether or not the United
States intends to or did include this
country when it specified "all ma
TONS
From a common sense standpoint, it
would seem that our government had
the right to enact legislation to suit
itself so long as it built and paid for
the canal. However, as skilled q dip
lomat as Senator Root is of the opin-
ion that there is merit in the British
contention and favors submitting the
question to The Hague tribunal.
1t will probably be better for this
country to have the dispute settled in
some other Manner, for if we go to
The Hague we will undoubtedly lose.
All the other countries of the world
which have shipping interests will be
against us, for the reason that they
will be as greatly injured as Great
British should the decision be favor
able to the United States.
