AT STATE CAPITAL
Indianapolis, Ind. April 14.--There is
great deal of speculation here as TO
the kind of public service commission
that has been appointed by Governor
Ralston and what the commission
whose personnel was given in these
columns on Tuesday will do. The
question of what will be the policy Of
the commission is the leading matter
of discussion. for the policy of the
commission is the big thing now. A
good commission, with good, patriotic
intentions. 1t is admitted. can be of
great value while a commission of the
do-nothing sort or one that might lose
sight of the interests of the people
would be worse than none at all.
The men appointed by Governor
Ralston are all men of exceptional
ability, and men who stand well in their
communities. and 1t is but reasonable
to expect that they will give n good
account of themselves in these new po-
sitions.

Proceedings Being Hur-

The last legal obstacle which has been

the attorneys representing East Chi

gether and agreed outside of court on

This transaction was hurried to a
conclusion on account of an important

FAMILY REUNION AT LYNNE
Special Cor. Ocala Banner:

Special Cor. Ocala Banner:
Thursday, August the seventh, was
a memorable event in the Lynne
neighborhood, for it was on that day
that the annual family reunion and
birthday celebration in honor of the
birthday of the senior Mrs. Perkins,
who is known and loved by all in the
neighborhood, and is called by old
and young alike, Grandma" Perkins.
Although she long since passed the
biblical age limit, she is hale and
hearty, young and buoyant in spirits,
and her children and relatives expect
to help her celebrate many more
birthday anniversaries in this pleas
ant and happy manner.
This annual picnic was given at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. John Per-
kins at Lynne, who with the pleasant
assistance of other sons and daugh-
tiers and grandchildren, Mr.. and Mrs.
Earl Perkins, Mr.. and Mrs. Ike Per-
kins, and Mr.. and Mrs. Lem Wilson
and all of their children and chill
dren's children, did everything to
make the day happy one for the
aged honor guest, and the day was
likewise just as happy an one to them
in their mothers happiness.
The morning was spent in the u.s.
ual pleasant way of enjoying the
hours out of doors, and when shortly
after noon dinner was called every
body was ready to do ample justice
to the good things spread before
them under the shade of big oak
trees. There was freshly caught fish,
fried brown and crisp, chicken, sal
ads, cold meats, and many other del
icacies were served.
After the elegant dinner the guests
all fingered around until the sun be-
gan to sink in the western horizon,
warning all that this wonderfully en-
joyable' day had to come to an end,
and a very happy day it had been. All
crowded around Grandma" Perkins
to bid her goodbye, and to wish for
her many year slonger.
There were between fifty and sew
enty-five present at this picnic, a
number of the guests being from
Ocala, and several from towns even
further away.

ACROSS THE RIVER

Accounting the courtesy of MIR. James
Johnson, the editor of this paper took
little spin across the river Wednes-
day afternoon. The road is fairly
good and we made excellent time.
Corn, sugar cane, chufas and PIN
dars are the principal field crops, and
the corn and cane seem especially
good. The orange trees look well,
but as they were so heavily loaded
last year the crop this season will be
small
The Rentz railroad has pentrated
that section and the timber stump
age shows that the RentZ saw mills
have not been idle.
We passed Lynne, and stopped at
Colonel Rogers place. The colonel
was not at home, but We were inform
ed that he will cease his turpentine
operations as soon as the lease for
his convicts expires, and will then
move to Ocala. His sons will move
here also and will help us in our eff
forts to make Ocala take shape and
grow into a city.
We stopped at the Lynne postoffice
to admire Mr.. Hicks fine orange
grove and Mrs. Hicks fine flowers.
She has the finest alamanda and sim
gle and double HIBISCUS bushes We
have seen in the county. They were
in full bloom, and, isolated in the
woods as they are, presented rare
picture.
We left Lynne precisely at $3.50
o'clock and reached Ocala at 4 o'clock
and were on the ball grounds to wit
ness the second inning.
The little Hupmobile is daisy and
moves along like thing of life.
