The Star greatly regrets to announce
the death OF Hollis. the bright little
son OF Mr.. and Mrs J. c. Geiger, who
passed away at the hospital at an
early hour this morning.
The little boy had been ailing for
some days. but had shown no signs
OF being seriously i'll until Sunday,
when he became alarmingly sick. The
family physician took him 10 the hos
pitaI and held a consultation with an
other doctor and a visiting specialist,
and they decided that an operation was
the child's only chance for life. They
were greatly surprised to find that he
was suffering from appendicitis. OF
which disease he had given no indica-
ton. The operation was quickly and
skiIlfuIIy performed. but the little fell
low was not strong enough TO recover
and passed away a few hours later
Hollis was a smart and Ioveable
child, and his death is an awful blow
to his parents Mr. and Mrs. j. c
GeIger. who have the deep sympathy
of their friends in this great afhiction

THE WEBB BILL

| The following is a copy of letter
recently written by Senator Kenyon
of Iowa, explaining the bill which he
assisted in framing and passing thru
Congress.
Washington, D. c, Feb. 3, 1913
Dear Sir: Your letter of January
nth should have been answered be-
fore this. but ! have been out Of the
city
There is a great misconception con-
corning this bill This bill does not
undertake TO dictate what shall be
done and what shall not be done in
reference TO the liquor traffic 1t
simply leaves it all TO the states. Now.
if any state forbade the use of LIQUOR
by citizen, If such law could be sus-
tanned under the constitution. then. of
course, this bill would affect the sit
uation you speak Of. but no state in
the Union has passed such law and
probably never will Hence. this bill
has no effect whatever upon such sit
uation- 1t is simply TO endeavor 10
stop the shipment of liquor into dry
territory TO be illegally used. II would
effect your business if you are ship
ping TO bootleggers who are selling in
violation of the law. II would not af-
feet that business where you are send
ing liquor TO individuals for their own
private use. Yours very truly.
VIM s Kenyon"

pressed the application of the bill,
that there should De no trouble with
understanding its exact meaning

FROEBEL'S BIRTHDAY.

This morning, the kindergarten

the anniversary of the birth of Frede-
rick Froebel, the founder of the kin
dergarten. y very appropriate program
was arranged for the occasion and the
little tots did we'll There were a num-
Der of pretty little motion songs sung
and a few games played and Miss
Rowley told the class the story of the
life of Froebel. One of the pretty fea-
wreath of flowers and draped it over
lures of the program was when the
little ones marched in bearing a
"a large picture of FrOebel that hung
on the wall. Miss Gates presided at
the piano, and the children sang while
they were marching. The entertain
ment was a great success and was
immensely enjoyed by a large number
of the parents and friends of the chill
dren. Misses Gates and Rowley de-
serve great credit for their untiring
efforts in building up a kindergarten
school in Ocala. The following are the
pupils: Irene and Calvin McGahagin.

Clarence Alexander, who went to
Ocala on business trip was so full
of whiskey when he reached Gaines

was assisted from the cars. Alexan=

three quarts of liquor and a couple
dozen bottles of beer, but he was SO
unmindful of his surroundings when

pound cabbage raised by man over in

stated, was one of the largest cabbages
ever raised in the state. We knew all

this record in the shade and were only
waiting for developments. Wednesday

a 16-pound cabbage raised on the truck
farm of Mr. Gufford, who has lately
moved to Theresa from Georgia. The
cabbage is one of the finest that we
have ever seen and was solid through

somewhat wilted and had lost many
leaves when it was weighed. 1t would
have weighed at least twenty pounds
when first cut from the stalk. 1t was
