BIG MEXICAN BANK
Had to Close Its Doors, Thereby
Knocking Another Prop from
Under Huerta

Mexico City, Dec. 22.-The Bank
of London and Mexico closed its
doors yesterday.
The bank was unable TO secure
currency with which to pay deposit
ors and therefore was forced to sus-
pend. Bankers ilere generally agree
with the management OF the Bank
OF London and Mexico in the opinion
that the institution is solvent and
the closing may be only temporary.
The bank is believed TO have excel
lent collateral.
Yesterdays suspension was not
due to lack of assets but to the scar
city of currency. Silver and gold
have both been scarce in the country
lately and bank bills have been re-
fused except in the states where they
we're issued.

FINE SYRUP FROM
A BURBANK FARM
Cuban Product Not as Good as the
Cane Juice of Marion
County

The Star force had a pleasant
Santa Claus visit yesterday after
noon from Col Ford H. Rogers, who
for several years has been spending
his winters in Ocala On this oc-
casion he had a basket we'll filed
with his famous Burbank Florida
cane syrup.
This syrup, which is most deli
cious, is the product OF Colonel
Rogers farm at Burbank and made
from red cane. The farm at pres
ent is under the management OF Mr.
S. D. Haynes, who came to Florida
from Detroit, Mich. The crop Of
syrup will probably reach 5000 gall
Ions and about one-third of this
amount will be bottled. while the
balance will be marketed in barrels
The Ocala Grocery Company will
handle the Ocala trade, and several
of the leading retail grocers have
stocked it already.
A new process for making syrup
was useu III the Manufacture Oh THIS
syrup and the machinery is made by
a Buffalo firm whose principal bust
ness is the manufacture of these ma
chimes for import, the larger sugar
concerns Of Cuba using many of
them. The juice is run into the ma
chine by pumps and the process is
said to be the best ever discovered
for syrup making.
Colonel Rogers is one of the most
extensive paint manufacturers in the
country. with works at Detroit, and
the Rogers farm at Burbank is run
on the same up-to-date business
plan as his large paint plant.

SMILING MONTH Of NAY
April About to Make Adieu Leaving
Northwestern and Chilly
Conditions

The rainy, cold and unscasonab!y
weather of the past few days culml-
mated last night with brisk north
wester, suggestive of March. 1t was
reported in market this morning that
some countryman had seen ice early
this morning, but il was generally be-
lieved he was a subject of optical de-
fusion.
From time immemorial the month OF
May, which makes its advent at twelve
o'clock tonight. has been hailed with
Joy. Amongst The Romans the feeling
of the time found vent in their Flor
ALA, or floral games, which began on
the 2sth of April, and continued a
few days. Nations taking more or less
their origin from Rome have settled
upon the first day of May as The spec
ial time for fetes Of the same kind.
Among our English ancestors May
Day was regarded as a joyous occa-
sion. during which the fairest maid Of
the village was crowned with flowers
as the "Queen Of the May" and the
King and Queen mingled with the
peasantry or the occasion.
The first of May attracts but little
attention in the United States al
though Uncertain localities the "May
Pole Dance" is still a rural enjoyment
on that day. About the only relic left
of the many features incident to the
enjoyments Of the younger generation
on the first of May is the legend that
the first female met by young man
j. on that morning is destined to be his
future partner in life, and the first
male encountered by young woman
will be her husband.
