UNION CENTRAL LIFE

Jacksonville Metropolis. 9th: The

were informed yesterday that the
Union Central Life Insurance Com
pany. of Cincinnati. was ready to
Day insurance on Mr.. Painters life
70 the amount of $4,000. and the
money was Immediately forthcoming.
Mr.. Painter became insured with
this big company only four days be-
for his tragic death, but the claim
has been settled amicably, and with
out any friction between the heirs
and the company, which is creditable
to the officers of the insurance con-
Germ.
Officials Of the company had a
representative investigate every cir
cumstance connected with Mr.. Paint
er's death, from which they came to
the conclusion that death resulted
wholly from accidental causes, by
reason of which payment was quick
| " decided upon.
! Mr.. Painter carried insurance
| amounting to more than a milllol
dollars. and his sudden death b!
drowning caused the officials of sOm'
Insurance companies to believe tina
he destroyed himself.

The following special 10 the Pen

county did what Marion will do on
larger scale next week:
Florala. Ala, Oct. S.-This is the
day that the southern portion of
Covington county made history. To-
day half of the FloralaAndalusia
highway proposed to be built by the
Florala News several weeks ago was
worked by scores of men and boys.
Early this morning men with
teams. plows, scrapers. drags and
road working machines began work
in the western corporate limits and
steadily moved toward the Watkins
bridge over Yellow river. at which
point the workers were to have
been met by those having charge of
the construction of the northern half
of the twenty-siX miles. Bankers.
merchants, clerks, doctors, lawyers
and, in fact, men of all professions
made up the largest crew that ever
made dirt fly on road in Coyington
county.

"BLOOD AND IRON

While the Star does not entirely
agree with the following from the
Lakeland Telegram. it finds very lit
tie in it to dissent from.
The Tampa Tribune is justly hor-
rified at the appalling murder rec
ord of this country and after citing
some recent cases says:
There must be a halt somewhere.
Something will have to be done.
EIectrocution. hanging and life i'm

The reason why electrocution,

seem TO have any effect is that those
remedies are so seldom employed. To

SENIORS TO GIVE
PLAY TWO TIMES
High School Graduates Pre-
pare for Commencement
Exercises.

For the purpose Of arranging TOT
semester and also to urge the seniors
to be sure that they have the required
credits and work for graduation. Prln-
cipal Pickell called a meeting OF the
senior body of the high school yester-
day afternoon after school.
He told the students that he would
like to give the senior play twice this
year instead of once as has been the
custom in years past, matinee ana
an evening performance. He said by
so doing those who could not come IN
the evening could come for the after
noon performance. By giving two pro
auctions it would do away with the
crOWding that always is OccaslOned
with the one production and he stated
further tina tthe class could make
about One-third more money This plan
was received favorably by the stu
dents. Selections for the play will not
be made for some time.
Arrangements for the senior chapel
exercises were discussed and many
prominent students talked on this
subject A senior chapel is held once
each year and the seniors have com
plete charge.
Principal Pickell warned the stu
dents to be sure that they would have
all the required work by next June
and he told them that if any were
in doubt as to this, to go over the cred
its already earned with the principal
to be sure that no misunderstanding
would occur at graduation time.

MOTORCYCLE CLUB
MEMBERS BANQUET
May Discontinue Races in
Favor of Endurance
Contests.

A rule against publicity Of the makes
OF motorcycles in any contests except
races, was passed at the third annual
banquet of the Richmond Motorcycle
club at the Westcott hotel last night.
The banquet marked the opening Of
the clubs fourth year
Club members decided that the pol
icy Of the club hereafter will be to
Conf1ne its activities within the club
rather than before the public. The
prevailing sentiment was against races
and for club runs and endurance con-
tests
The cause Of the clubs action
against races, is the fact that the driv-
ing park races track is leased to May
or Zimmerman and the club cannot
make improvements necessary to hold
the high class races demanded here.
IT may mean that there will be no
MORE races until 1915 when the pres
ent lessee will have given up the
grounds.
Walter Moore, secretary of the club
says action was taken against giving
publicity 10 the makes of motorcycles
in any cases except when giving race
entries. Professional jealousy is likely
to arise from the too frequent use OF
any one motorcycle name, Secretary
Moore said.
Hold Summer Runs.
The club members want an endur
Rnce run, club run, picnic or any 9th
er activity on the part Of the cyclists
to be held once a week during the sum
mer, instead of combining the activities
of the members to preparing for races
At the banquet which was served il
six courses, f. G.. Smith, salesman fol
the Visco Oil company and a member
of the Cleveland Motorcycle club, pre-
sided as POSTMASTER.
Those who attended were: Roy Har
vey, Elmer Smith, A. c. Alexander, c
n. Cook, Carl kemper, Raymond
Smith, Walter Moore, w. c. Alexan
der, Clyde Smith, Earl Wright, Ernes
Witt, George Homrighous, Charles
