GRAND 0LD man
Of SCIENCE DEAD

London, Nov. S.-Alfred Russell
Wallace, an eminent British scientist,
died here today, aged 81 years.
Prof. Wallace, the grand old man
of SCIENCE" shares with Darwin the
honors of having set forth the scien-
tific principles of evolution. He was
the author of more than 200 books,
treatises and monographs.
About 1859 he visited Sumatra and
Java and discovered that the Malay
archipelago was divided into west
ern group of islands, which in origin
are Oriental, and an eastern group
which are Australian. The two groups
are divided by narrow belt of sea
known as "Wallace's line" on the
opposite sides of which the indigen-
ous animals are as widely diverged
as in any two parts Of the world.
Wallace became convinced Of the
truth Of evolution, and originated the
theory Of natural selection during
these travels. His work in the devel-
Opment OF the laws Of the evolution
supplements that Of his friend. Oar
win, and the result Is often called the
Darwin Wallace theory.
He visited the United States in
1887. ~

WEST PALM BEACH MAY
GET PAPER MILL

West Palm Beach, Sept. S-West
Palm Beach is much elated over the
prospect of becoming the manufac-
turing center of new industry. The
city officials were approached last
week with an offer from a gentleman
named Loomis, to put in paper
mill here, provided certain condi-
tions were found suitable to the es-
tablishment of such a plant. Mr..
Loomis is the owner Of a mill in
Waycross, Ca, where he mahufac-
lures paper out OF saw-grass, and
such bananas as can be grown SO far
from their natural habitat. He
realizes that it would pav him bet
ter to be on more equal terms With
his sources of supply by putting his
plant where they are produced iii
ineXhaustible quantities, as they are
in this neighborhood, and expects to
move down here with his machinery
as soon as he has experimental on a
carload Of materials that are to be
forwarded to him from here. 1t is
believed that this innovation will
mark the beginning OF Il very I'M
portant era in West Palm Beach.

CALKINS MAY OPPOSE CLARK

Jacksonville, Sept. S.-State Sen
ator James E. Calkins, of Nassau
county, who is in the city from Fer
nandina today, is among the posi-
BILE candidates for Congress from the
Second district, represented by Hon.
Frank Clark. He has been urged
by a number of friends to make the
race, but has reached no definite con-
clusion. Senator Calkins belongs to
the progressive clan of Democracy,
but is not one OF the erratic type,
although a staunch advocate of the
initiative and referendum and other
reform measures. He has Just COM
pleted his four year term as senator
from Nassau, and in case he does not
tackle Mr.. Clark he may be a candi-
date to succeed himself. Nassau
county was in the Fourth, or "Shoe
String district, with Duval, but Mr..
Calkins had the county transferrca /
to the Second district for very good
reason. "The Fourth district" ho
said, includes jacksonville and Key
West, both of which are large ports.
Against these ports Fcrnandina
would have little chance in the mat
ter of getting harbor approximations
when left in the same district, by
reason of which our people preferred
to be in the Second district, which
contains no strong competing ports. =
Senator Calkins is held in high es-
tecm as lawyer and legislator
throughout the State.

POLK COUNTY COMING NEW JAIL

follows over the new Jail which
Polk county is soon to have:
Polk county is to have Il new Jail
that shall be modern and up-to-date

"The citizens wish it and the
county commissioners have dccreed
it, for in their meeting this week on
Monday and Tuesday at the court
house in Barlow they levied a tax
of one mill for the building Of the
Jail.
'The board will soon be ready to
build and pay for the new Jail on
the same plan that they built and
paid for the court house. Time war;

before they fell due. The tax levy
for the Jail this year will give some-

SOME LESSEES UNDER
FEEDING STATE CONVICT0

State Convict Inspector r. r.
Tomlin, who is in the city today, de-
clares that some of the convict les.
sees are getting more than their
moneys worth" out of State and
county convicts at present, this be-
ing due to the fact that the expira-
tion of leases is near at hand and to
the extremely low prices prevailing
on naval stores.
Because the leases will expire
within a short time and the lack Of
profit in turpentine and rosin, find
that some of the lessees have recent
ly been cutting down the food sup
plies of the convicts, and at the same
time forcing them to work longer
hours" said Mr.. Tomlin. aside
from a few cases of this character,
however, | have found conditions In
the various camps to be very good"
The Board of State Institutions, OF
which Governor Trammell is head,
is now advertising for bids en- county
and State convicts from counties and
individuals, and the contracts Will be
awarded shortly. Under the terms OF
the law enacted at the recent legis-
lative session, counties may lease
convicts for road work, being grant
ed lower rate than individual les
sees, and it is understood that quite
a number will apply for share OF
the unfortunates. Jacksonville Me-
